Last Revised: 21/10/2020

PLEASE READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY, AS IT CONTAINS IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS AND REMEDIES

1. OVERVIEW

This Website Builder v7 Service Agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered into by and between GoDaddy.com, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and you, and is made effective as of the date of electronic acceptance. This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions of your use of GoDaddy’s Website Builder services (“Website Builder” or the “Services”).

Your electronic acceptance of this Agreement signifies that you have read, understand, acknowledge and agree to be bound by this Agreement, along with (i) GoDaddy’s Universal Terms of Service, and (ii) any plan limits, product disclaimers or other restrictions presented to you on the Website Builder landing page of the GoDaddy website (this “Site”), both (i) and (ii) of which are incorporated herein by reference.

The terms “we”, “us” or “our” shall refer to GoDaddy. The terms “you”, “your”, “User” or “customer” shall refer to any individual or entity who accepts this Agreement and/or uses the Services. Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to confer any third-party rights or benefits.

You acknowledge and agree that (i) GoDaddy, in its sole and absolute discretion, may change or modify this Agreement, and any policies or agreements which are incorporated herein, at any time, and such changes or modifications shall be effective immediately upon posting to this Site, and (ii) your use of this Site or the Services found at this Site after such changes or modifications have been made (as indicated by the “Last Revised” date at the top of this page) shall constitute your acceptance of this Agreement as last revised. If you do not agree to be bound by this Agreement as last revised, do not use (or continue to use) this Site or the Services found at this Site. In addition, GoDaddy may occasionally notify you of changes or modifications to this Agreement by email. It is therefore very important that you keep your shopper account (“Shopper Account”) information, including your email address, current. GoDaddy assumes no liability or responsibility for your failure to receive an email notification if such failure results from an inaccurate or out-of-date email address.

2. DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES

Website Builder is an online website builder, which allows you to build a website within the parameters specific to your plan. InstantPage is an online website builder, which allows you to build a one-page website.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, we grant You a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable license to use the Website Builder analytics (“Analytics”) solely as necessary for You to use the Analytics on Website Builder properties; and (b) You may access and view reports through Your GoDaddy account. The Analytics will allow you to track Your visitor’s IP address, time of visit, header information and location (“Data”). You will comply with all applicable laws and regulations in Your use of and access to the Analytics Data and reports. GoDaddy and its wholly owned subsidiaries may retain and use, subject to the terms of its privacy policy, Data collected by the Analytics. You will not (and will not allow any third party to) use the Analytics to track, collect or upload any data that personally identifies an individual (such as a name, email address or billing information), or other data which can be reasonably linked to such information. You will have and abide by an appropriate Privacy Policy and will comply with all applicable laws, policies, and regulations relating to the collection of information from visitors. You must post a Privacy Policy and that Privacy Policy must provide notice of Your use of cookies that are used to collect Data. You must disclose the use of Analytics, and how it collects and processes Data.

3. FACELIFT SERVICES

The GoDaddy Facelift service (“Facelift”) performs a visual redesign for existing WSB v6 and WSB v7 customers. Our third-party contractors work off of your published website, will take existing images and text, and redesign the site based on your design input.

Facelift typically takes 2-3 weeks (can take longer depending on complexity of the site) to perform the first version of the redesign. After that, we send it to you for feedback, to make any changes, and then we swap it into your GoDaddy account once complete. Length of time for the feedback rounds will depend on the complexity of the feedback. Once complete, you have to log in to make any final edits. Then, you publish it when ready.

4. FACELIFT LIMITATIONS

Facelift works off of the published version of your website (built using GoDaddy’s Website Builder) at the time of your design form submission. Because of that, we do NOT guarantee:

  1. That changes made on your site after the initial design form submission will be included in the redesign.
  2. That additional requirements sent after the initial design form can be accommodated.
  3. That additional content (e.g., text, images) can be incorporated into your redesign.
  4. That “Invisible” content (e.g., embedded third-party HTML/JS code, metatags for SEO) will be included.
  5. That SEO will be the same or better than the previously redesigned site.
  6. That Facelift will be completed any particular timeline. If you have certain deadline restrictions, Facelift is not the right service for you.
  7. That we can edit content or images to be used in the redesign that are on the customer's existing published website.
  8. Any phone support and designer consultation. We do offer email support and communication through web forms.

5. FACEBOOK PAGE DESIGNER

Website Builder and InstantPage include access to a Facebook page designer (the “Facebook Page Designer”).

The Facebook Page Designer allows you to create customized Facebook pages designed to complement your website. The number of Facebook pages allowed varies depending on your Website Builder plan, and is in addition to the number of site pages included with your Website Builder plan.

In order to use the Facebook Page Designer, you will need to (i) set up a Facebook account (if you do not have one already) and (ii) activate a public page from within your Facebook account. After you finish designing your Facebook pages, you will need to link the Facebook pages to your Facebook account in order for the Facebook pages to be navigable. Please note that your Facebook pages will be built on the same hosting account (and accessible via the same control panel) as your website. Accordingly, at least one page of your website must be published before your Facebook pages can be published.

6. LIMITATIONS

TLDs. You acknowledge and agree that your website will be subject to any and all content (or other) restrictions specific to the top level domain (“TLD”) with which it is associated. If you have more than one Website Builder account, only the Website Builder account associated with the TLD in question will be affected by such limitations.

Coming Soon Pages. Website Builder offers a “Coming Soon Page” option for customers who are not yet ready to build their website. You acknowledge and agree that if you select the “Coming Soon Page” option, you will have a more limited selection of design and color combinations than those available in the Website Builder template library.

Obligation to Maintain Subscription. Provision of Website Builder is dependent upon your active subscription to (and payment for) Website Builder. Failure to maintain your subscription at any time will result in termination of Website Builder. Recurring billing for your Website Builder plan will begin on the date of purchase. Fees paid for Website Builder are not transferable to other Website Builder accounts (or other GoDaddy accounts) other than the account initially associated with Website Builder on the date of purchase.

Instant Publication. InstantPage is designed to promote your website live on your domain name instantly. You acknowledge and agree that you will not have the ability to preview either initial design selections or subsequent design changes to your website before they become live. Accordingly, we encourage you to carefully review your (i) background, (ii) text, (iii) layouts, (iv) widgets, and (v) colors carefully at each step.
