2.3 SEO Policy & No Performance Guarantee
Any SEO or performance-related work is carried out on a best-effort basis. Search rankings, traffic, sales, leads and similar metrics depend on factors outside zeluryx’s control, including competition, your industry, your pricing, and algorithms of search engines or platforms.
We do not guarantee: specific positions on Google or other search engines, specific traffic volumes, or financial results. We also do not use black-hat or deceptive SEO practices.

You are responsible for:
- Providing accurate and lawful business information, text, images, videos and other content.
- Ensuring your products and services comply with UAE law and any applicable regulations in other regions where you operate.
- Obtaining necessary rights, licenses and permissions for all content you supply.
3.2 Approvals & Communication
You agree to respond to our questions, drafts, and approval requests within a reasonable timeframe (maximum 5 Business Days). Delays in feedback may delay project work and do not release you from payment obligations.
3.3 Security & Access
- Keep all login details and passwords confidential and secure.
- Notify us immediately if you suspect unauthorised access to your website or account.
- Do not share admin access with third parties that may compromise the security or stability of the Service.
4. Contract Term, Renewal & Price Stability
4.1 Contract Term
The Contract Term for all zeluryx plans is 12 months, starting from the earlier of:
- The date of your first invoice; or
- The date your website is made available for use.
4.2 Price Stability During Term
The monthly price for your plan remains fixed and will not increase during the active 12-month term, except where an increase is required by changes in law, VAT or other government-mandated charges.
4.3 Renewal
At the end of the Contract Term, your subscription may be renewed for another 12-month term:
-
If renewed before the end of the current term with no outstanding debt:
- Your current monthly price is locked for the next 12 months (price-freeze).
- You receive early-renewal bonuses (see below).
-
If renewed after the current term has expired:
- The new price is based on the then-current pricing published by zeluryx.
4.4 Early Renewal Bonuses
If you renew early, we commit to providing at minimum:
- A one-time SEO analytics review and on-page SEO improvement suggestions or changes.
- Creation of at least one (1) extra page (e.g., FAQ, Services split page, promo landing page).
- Minor UX/design improvements chosen by us based on best practices and your plan level.
5. Fees, Late Payments, Refunds & No Hidden Fees
5.1 Subscription Fees
Subscription fees are payable monthly in advance in AED, via the payment methods we support (e.g. card, bank transfer, payment links, etc.). Taxes, if any, will be applied in line with applicable UAE law.
5.2 No Hidden Fees
All recurring fees, one-time fees, late fees and reactivation fees will be clearly communicated to you in advance. We do not intentionally charge undisclosed or hidden fees.
5.3 Late Payments & Penalties
If an invoice is not paid by the due date:
- From day 1 to day 5 after the due date, a late fee of 100 AED is added per day.
- After 5 days of non-payment, your service may be suspended.
To reactivate your service after suspension, you must pay:
- All outstanding subscription amounts; and
- Accumulated daily late fees (up to 5 days); and
- A 450 AED reactivation fee.
Legal fairness cap: Late fees and reactivation fees will in no case exceed the lower of:
- Twenty-five percent (25%) of the overdue invoice amount; or
- Our actual, reasonable administrative and recovery costs related to the late payment.
This cap is intended to prevent excessive or exploitative penalties in line with UAE consumer protection principles.
5.4 Refund Policy
We offer a 10-day money-back guarantee starting from the beginning of your first Contract Term. If you cancel in this initial 10-day period, we will refund your subscription fee for that period.
After the first 10 days, all fees are non-refundable, including in cases of partial use, early cancellation, or non-usage of the Service.
5.5 Chargebacks
If you initiate a chargeback or payment dispute without first attempting to resolve the issue with us in writing:
- We may immediately suspend or terminate your Service.
- We may restrict future access to our Services until the dispute is resolved and funds are repaid.
- We may seek reimbursement for any chargeback-related fees or damages we incur.
6. Cancellation, Good-Cause Exit & Termination
6.1 Cancellation by Client (Standard)
You may request to cancel your subscription at any time; however, cancelling before the end of the 12-month Contract Term does not automatically release you from payment obligations for the remaining months.
Standard Cancellation Fee:
Cancellation Fee = (12 − months already used) × monthly plan price
6.2 Good-Cause Cancellation by Client
If you believe zeluryx has materially failed to provide the core Services described in this Agreement, you may give us written notice of the problem. We will then have a reasonable timeframe (normally up to 30 days) to remedy the issue.
If, after this remedy period, we still materially fail to provide the agreed core Services and the failure is clearly our fault, you may cancel for Good Cause. In such Good-Cause cancellation:
- You will only owe subscription fees up to the date of effective cancellation.
- The Standard Cancellation Fee for remaining months will not apply.
6.3 Termination by zeluryx
We may suspend or terminate your Service if you:
- Fail to pay invoices and fees within the allowed grace period.
- Use the Service for illegal, abusive, or prohibited activities.
- Repeatedly violate these Terms despite warnings.
- Initiate fraudulent chargebacks or attempt to avoid legitimate payment obligations.
6.4 Client Protections Before Termination
Except in urgent cases involving illegality, security threats or serious abuse, we will use reasonable efforts to notify you and provide an opportunity to correct issues before permanent termination.
6.5 Effect of Termination or Cancellation
Upon termination or cancellation:
- Outstanding invoices and lawful fees remain payable.
- Your website may be taken offline and access to dashboards may be removed.
- Once all lawful amounts are settled, we will, upon request, provide reasonable assistance in transferring your domain and content where technically feasible.
7. Domains, Ownership, Intellectual Property & Portfolio Use
