Viva-Mundo.com - Terms of Use

Advertising Clients/Agencies/Educational Institutions

By contracting any service with BMI in reference to the site Viva-Mundo.com, you are also contracting to appear on the individual Viva-Mundo.com country sites. By contracting any service, customers also agree to be bound by these terms and conditions.

1. All orders are considered as confirmed and contracted. Orders made by an advertising agency will be considered a contract when Viva-Mundo.com acknowledges receipt of the order.

Where the customer places the order and requests Viva-Mundo.com to bill their advertising agency, the contract is formed with the customer and the customer remains contractually obliged to make payment in the event the advertising agency fails to pay. If an order is placed by a customer and they wish to be billed through their advertising agency, then the customer placing the booking is responsible for payment should the agency fail to pay for any reason.

Cancellations will be subject to a 100% cancellation fee and therefore no refund is due. 

2. Most website options are for a three-month period and start from the date the order is fulfilled.

3. It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that their article is listed on the Viva-Mundo.com website for the full period of any advertising. Viva-Mundo.com provides a platform for providers to advertise their courses, we do not guarantee sale of these courses.

4. If no copy is provided, the customer permits Viva-Mundo.com to take images and text from the institutions website and / or prospectus to facilitate the order. In the event that the institution does not own the images and text taken from the website, the institution will indemnify Viva-Mundo.com against any and all copyright and/or intellectual property claims brought by the owners of the images and texts in the event of any subsequent publication. Should a booking remain incomplete due to the client not providing the requested information, and it not being available on their website, full payment of the order value is still due.

5. If required, banner advertising can be made up by Viva-Mundo.com for an agreed charge.

6. All prices exclude VAT. If your institution is in the EU, you will be charged VAT unless you supply a VAT exemption certificate. Institutions outside the EU will not be charged VAT.

Viva-Mundo.com have the right to instigate enforcement action abroad where there is likelihood of recovery of debt from a business or individual. In this situation the customer is liable for these costs including staff travel.

12. As an existing customer, you agree to being sent periodic updates on our products and services. The option to opt-out will be included in all related correspondence.

13. Payment terms: All payments for the length of service contracted is immediate via credit card. Where invoicing is agreed, Viva-Mundo.com can, where appropriate, charge interest on overdue payments at a rate of 5% per month from the due date.
