Website and online store sub-page(s) (i.e. not index homepage) are not necessarily SEO optimised.

Our services will operate on most web browsers. However, we do not guarantee that content will look the same across all browsers and in some cases, the services themselves may actually be un-useable. However, we will always do or best to ensure that any services developed will be compatible with as many common browsers available at the time of delivery. If you require updates to these services in future to cater for new browser compatibility / functionality or require changes in general, this will need to be re-scoped and costed as required.

We will not resolve any issues raised as a result of incorrect usage of our CMS system, Website, Online Store or Booking System without the use of support tickets as part of our Support Ticket support programme. i.e. if you remove content unexpectedly or break features and functions of your CMS system, Website, Online Store or Booking System, you will need to use a support ticket to get it investigated and rectified where possible.

Limited support tickets are sometimes supplied or additional support tickets can be purchased. A support ticket can be used to resolve any usage or technical issues and each support ticket can only be used once. When a support ticket is used, Mitsukibo Pty Ltd will investigate and attempt to resolve the issue within 30 minutes of their effort.

Outages & Disruption of Service

Outages and resumption of service that we are aware of are announced on our website and may also be done via email to our existing customers.

For scheduled non-emergency outages, we will announce the outage as it is planned (usually giving at least 5 days notice).

For unscheduled outages or emergency outages, we will announce it the earliest we are aware of the issue.

We strive to keep outages a minimum, but cannot guarantee that they will not happen. We still recommend that you take appropriate backups and ‘fall-back’ measures in the event your service is interrupted for extended periods of time.

Disruption of Service apart from outages can occur if payment is not received within 30 days after the required due date of the payment for a service. This is usually due to us deactivating a service should this be decided the appropriate course of action by Mitsukibo Pty Ltd. This will however be considered as our last resort course of action should payment not be made or us accepting the justification of a late payment.
