Where Materials are submitted to you for any reason where terms of business have not been agreed to, their provision is made on the basis that VG retains copyright and all other intellectual property rights in the Materials and that the recipient of the Materials will keep them confidential and will return them complete and uncopied if the Submission (pitch or project proposal) is unsuccessful.

4. INSTRUCTIONS

You will use your best endeavours to ensure that all instructions are in writing and, in particular, you will sign off on all work produced. VG will not be liable for any errors or omissions resulting from oral instructions or from a failure on your part to sign off on any work.

5. DEPOSIT, FEES AND EXPENSES

5.5 – Unless otherwise stated, VAT will be charged in addition to the quoted fees and on all expenses where it applies.

5.6 – If VG contracts the services of outside parties as part of the scope of work, their fees will form part of VG’s account (unless agreement is reached that they be billed direct to you) and will include an additional fee for supervision, outlined in the Submission.

5.7 – If any payments under this clause remain unpaid for more than 14 days, VG in its absolute discretion reserves the right to charge interest at the rate of 10% per annum, calculated daily, until payment is made.
