Last Updated: October 2026
Welcome to Zarlie ("we", "us", or "our"). These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern both your use of our website (https://zarlie.com.au) and the provision of any digital marketing, advertising, web management, or related consulting services ("Services") provided by Zarlie to our clients ("you" or "Client"). By accessing our website, engaging our Services, or accepting an invoice or proposal from us, you agree to be bound by these Terms.
Part A: Client Services & Commercial Terms
1. Scope of Services & Out-of-Scope Work
Services are provided at the agreed rate and in accordance with the specific deliverables outlined in your approved proposal, quote, or partnership agreement. Any additional work, revisions, or requests falling outside the agreed scope will be quoted and charged separately, subject to your prior approval.
2. Invoicing, Payment Terms & Disputes
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Services are billed in arrears at the conclusion of each calendar month.
- Payment Due Date: Payment is strictly due within 30 days of the invoice date (Net 30).
- Invoice Disputes: If you have any questions or disputes regarding an invoice, you must notify us in writing within 14 days of the invoice date. After 14 days, the invoice is deemed accepted, accurate, and final.
- Overdue Accounts: If an invoice remains unpaid past the 30-day due date, we reserve the right to pause all active Services, campaign management, and website updates until the account is settled in full.
3. Third-Party Advertising Platforms & Media Spend
In the course of providing Services, we may manage campaigns on third-party platforms (such as Google Ads, Meta Ads, or email marketing software).
- Direct Media Spend: Unless explicitly stated otherwise on your invoice, our service fees cover agency management only and do not include direct media spend or third-party software subscriptions, which are billed directly to your nominated payment method by the respective platforms.
- Platform Policies & Changes: Zarlie is not responsible or liable for account suspensions, ad disapprovals, algorithm updates, platform outages, or policy changes enforced by third-party platforms.
4. Client Responsibilities & Approvals
To enable us to perform our Services effectively, you agree to provide timely access to required accounts, assets, branding materials, and approvals. You warrant that any text, graphics, data, or customer lists you provide to us are owned by you (or that you have permission to use them) and comply with all applicable laws, including the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Spam Act 2003 (Cth).
5. No Guarantees of Specific Results
While we apply industry best practices to maximize campaign performance, digital marketing outcomes depend on numerous market factors beyond our control. We do not guarantee any specific results, return on ad spend (ROAS), lead volume, rankings, or revenue from using our Services or acting on information provided through our site. Any examples of outcomes or past client results are illustrative only.
6. Service Deliverables & Intellectual Property
Upon receipt of full payment for the relevant invoices, ownership of custom client-specific assets created exclusively for you passes to you. We retain ownership of our pre-existing intellectual property, internal frameworks, templates, automation scripts, and proprietary methodologies.
7. Term, Retainer Cancellation & Notice Period
Unless a fixed minimum term is specified in your proposal or partnership agreement, ongoing monthly Services operate on a rolling month-to-month basis.
- Cancellation Notice: Either party may terminate ongoing monthly Services by providing at least 30 days' written notice via email.
- Final Billing & Handover: We will continue to provide Services during the 30-day notice period, and you remain responsible for full payment of all Services rendered and approved costs incurred up to the final termination date. Upon settlement of all final invoices, we will cooperate in a reasonable handover of your accounts and assets.
