Terms of Service
The rules for buying from SEESZN, plainly stated.
Who we are
SEESZN is a brand of Vanguard Edge LLC, 30 N Gould St, Sheridan, WY 82801, USA ("SEESZN", "we"). You can reach us at hello@seeszn.com.
These terms apply to everything you order online at seeszn.com, in particular backlink placements as a one-time order or as a monthly plan. Projects we agree individually (for example under "Work with SEESZN") follow the written offer for that project. Where the offer says nothing, these terms apply.
Business customers only
We sell only to businesses: companies, freelancers and self-employed people who order for their trade or profession. For customers in Germany this means entrepreneurs within the meaning of § 14 of the German Civil Code (BGB). We do not sell to consumers. By placing an order you confirm that you are buying for business purposes and that you are allowed to act for the business you name.
Your own terms and conditions do not apply, even if we do not object to them.
How a contract comes about
What you see on the website is not yet a binding offer. You place a binding order when you complete payment in the checkout. The contract starts when we confirm your order, normally right after payment on the confirmation page and by email.
We may decline an order, for example if we cannot serve the target market or if the website to be promoted is unlawful. If we decline, you get a full refund.
What you get
You get the number of backlink placements you selected, in the format and for the target market you selected.
A person reviews every placement against our quality standard before it is approved. The standard is: the placement is live and publicly reachable, it links to your target page, and it sits in a context that fits your topic and market.
We choose the websites where your links are placed, based on your briefing. You are not entitled to a placement on one particular website or to particular metrics, unless we agreed that in writing.
The placements are on websites that belong to third parties. We do not own or control these websites. What happens if a link disappears later is covered by the replacement protection in section 10.
Your briefing and your website
After payment we ask you for a short briefing: the page to link to, your topic, and anything we should know. Please make sure it is complete and correct. The delivery period starts when we have your complete briefing.
You confirm that you are allowed to promote the website and that its content is lawful. We do not place links for content that is illegal, hateful, or designed to deceive people. If we find this out after you have paid, we stop and refund the placements we have not delivered.
If we do not receive your briefing within 90 days after payment, we may cancel the order and refund the amount you paid.
Delivery
Your placements go live over a period of two to three weeks after we have your briefing. They are spread out on purpose so the links build up naturally. Large orders or special markets can take longer. We tell you if that is the case.
When your placements are live, we send you a list of the links by email. The date of that email is the delivery date.
With a monthly plan you get your placements for each paid month in the same way.
If placements are still outstanding eight weeks after we received your briefing, you can cancel the outstanding part. We then refund the price of the placements we did not deliver.
Prices and payment
All prices are in euros and net. VAT, sales tax and similar taxes are not included. Where such taxes apply, they are added or, where the law provides for it, you account for them yourself (reverse charge).
Payment is due in advance through our payment provider Stripe. You can pay with the methods shown in the checkout, for example card, SEPA Direct Debit or bank transfer. If you choose to pay in another currency, Stripe converts the amount. You see the rate and the final amount before you pay.
We start work once your payment has arrived. With SEPA Direct Debit and bank transfer that can take a few days.
You receive your invoice electronically through Stripe.
If a payment fails or is reversed, we may pause our work until it is settled. Bank fees for a reversed payment that you are responsible for are yours to pay.
Monthly plan: term and cancellation
A monthly plan is billed monthly in advance and charged automatically to your payment method.
The minimum term is three months from the first payment. During the minimum term the plan cannot be cancelled early, and the three monthly payments are due.
After the minimum term the plan continues month by month. You can cancel it at any time. It then ends at the end of the month you have already paid for. We do not refund the running month.
To cancel, write to hello@seeszn.com from the email address you ordered with. We confirm the cancellation by email. If you cancel during the minimum term, the cancellation takes effect at the end of the minimum term.
If a monthly payment is still open 14 days after it was due, we may end the plan. Payments for the minimum term remain due.
If we change the price of a running plan, we tell you by email at least 30 days in advance. A price change never applies during the minimum term. If you do not agree, you can cancel before it takes effect.
Both sides keep the right to end the plan immediately for a serious reason.
Refunds
Before work starts: you can cancel a one-time order and get a full refund. Work starts on the first business day after we receive your complete briefing.
After work has started: we do not refund the order because you changed your mind. If something is wrong with a placement, the replacement protection in section 10 applies.
If we cannot deliver: we refund the price of every placement we did not deliver.
To ask for a refund, write to hello@seeszn.com and include your order reference. We pay refunds to the payment method you used, normally within 10 business days.
Replacement protection
Every delivered placement is protected for six months from the delivery date.
If, within these six months, a link is removed, its page is permanently offline, or the placement no longer meets the quality standard in section 04, we replace it with a new, comparable placement at no extra cost.
Tell us by email which link is affected. We check it and normally deliver the replacement within three weeks. The replacement is protected until the end of the original six months.
If we cannot provide a replacement within a reasonable time, we refund the price of that placement instead.
The protection does not cover cases you caused yourself, for example if you changed or deleted the target page, moved your website without redirects, or asked the website owner to remove the link. Short outages of a website are not a removal.
Replacement, or the refund described here, is your only claim if a placement is removed.
No promise of rankings
Backlinks are one of many factors for visibility in search engines and AI answers. How search engines and AI systems rate a website is outside our control and can change at any time. We therefore do not promise a particular ranking, a particular amount of traffic, or a particular result in AI answers.
Liability
We are liable without limit where the law does not allow a limit, in particular for intent and gross negligence.
In all other cases our total liability is limited to the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the event that caused the damage. We are not liable for indirect or consequential damage, such as lost profit, lost revenue, lost rankings, or actions taken by search engines against a website.
You are responsible for the content of your website and for the information in your briefing. If a third party makes a claim against us because of that content, you hold us harmless.
Confidentiality and data
We use the information from your order and your briefing only to deliver our services. We do not name you as a customer in public without your consent. How we handle personal data is described in our Privacy Policy.
Changes to these terms
For a one-time order, the terms that were on this page when you ordered apply.
For a running monthly plan, we tell you about changes by email at least 30 days before they take effect. If you do not agree, you can cancel the plan before that date. If you keep the plan, the new terms apply.
Law and courts
These terms and all orders are governed by the laws of the State of Wyoming, USA. Its conflict of law rules and the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) do not apply.
The courts located in the State of Wyoming, USA, have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute.
These terms exist in English and German. If the two versions differ, the English version applies.
If one provision of these terms is invalid, the rest remains in force.
