2. CHARGES
Charges for services to be provided by MCM Net Limited are defined in the initial quotation that the Client receives.

Upon transfer of the project to the web server (putting the work live), and subsequent transfer of ownership of content rights, the Client accepts full responsibility for the whole content of the project, and any grievances, arising as result of this content, either in the United Kingdom, or any other countries, will be the sole responsibility of the client.
