Typically, Leapfrog Market will provide the Client with a formal quote using an online quoting system which delivers the formal quote to the Client by email. A formal quote is only considered an agreement or a contract between Leapfrog Market and the Client when the Client accepts and approves the formal quote.

Leapfrog Market may provide the Client with domain name registration, web and email hosting services, custom website design, website design, digital marketing services and consulting services and so on in accordance with the project and/or job and/or product and/or service the Client has ordered or requested from Leapfrog Market.

SERVICE / JOB / TASK / PROJECT SCOPE AND QUOTE AGREEMENTS:

The scope of a service, job, task or project to be provided by Leapfrog Market to the Client will be defined and/or set out in the formal quote which defines or explains what work or service or item or feature is to be included and/or completed for the Client under that formal quote and agreement.

The descriptions and definitions and parameters define or determine the scope in the formal quote agreement between Leapfrog Market are the Client are intended to be clear to Leapfrog Market and to the Client as well as to any impartial third party. Leapfrog Market will provide its best effort to provide and document any and all formal quote agreements to a Client which include any scope details or parameters for the relevant service, task, job or project, however, Leapfrog Market reserves the right to be final judge for the interpretation of any part of a scope or the interpretation of any such scope or parameters set out and defined in a formal quote agreement between Leapfrog Market and the Client.

Formal quotes and quote agreements from Leapfrog Market may include attachments like images or specifications or drawings or photos or documents or reports or any other supporting materials relevant or required to define or set out the requirements or deliverables for the formal quote agreement to be completed.

When a Client accepts and approves formal quote from Leapfrog Market, the Client agrees that they have freely entered into a formal quote or contract agreement with Leapfrog Market which excludes any communication between Leapfrog Market and the Client in previous or subsequent emails or phone calls or meetings or any other medium.

Further, the Client accepts and agrees that the formal quote agreement is a binding contract between Leapfrog Market and the Client.

Leapfrog Market reserves the right to withdraw a proposal or quote at any time.

ESTIMATES:

From time to time, Leapfrog Market may provide a Client with an estimate cost or estimate fee for the provision and/or delivery of a task, job, service or project to or for the Client. An estimate is an approximation of the hours or fees required to complete or deliver a task, job, service or project but it is not a final formal quote.

From time to time, Leapfrog Market will provide a proposal to a Client for a task, service, job or project which will typically include an estimate or estimates within the proposal.
Leapfrog Market will separately provide a formal quote to a Client where the Client has requested to be sent such a formal quote or where Leapfrog Market chooses to provide and send such a formal quote to the Client.

Any final invoice or fee for the work approved by a Client will be determined by the formal quotes and not by an estimate.

An estimate is not a fixed or formal quote or final price or fee for a task, service, job or project and an estimate should not be viewed by a Client as such. An estimate is at best a rough guide to the final price only which may change a little or significantly depending on the considerations and parameters or scope of the task, service, job or project.

Leapfrog Market will typically use an estimate during the early stages of discussions between a Client and Leapfrog Market before a formal quote and an engagement model or service agreement is agreed upon.

For the purposes of any dispute that may arise between a Client and Leapfrog Market, any estimates or emails or discussions that are not directly attached to or directly reference within the actual formal quote agreement between the Client and Leapfrog Market are null and void and the Client accepts and agrees to these terms.
Leapfrog Market reserves the right to withdraw a proposal or quote at any time.

QUOTES:

Quotes will be issued to Clients using an online delivery and documentation service known as an online quoting system. Each quote is numbered and stored online by the system. A quote will be prepared and issued to a Client for the Client to review and approve or decline. Once a Client approves a quote, the fee or price for the works listed in the quote is set and Leapfrog Market agrees to not vary that price unless the scope of the quote is varied by written agreement. However, if the Client seeks to vary the quote, then we will either revoke and modify the quote or issue a new quote for the Client to approve.

A quote is a specific fee or price that Leapfrog Market sets out and defines for the requested task, service, job or project. It will typically include parameters and defined deliverables as well as a charge cost or a fee. The cost or fee may be a one-time charge or it may be a recurring charge. In either instance, the nature of the charge will be made clear in the quote.

A quote, once it is accepted and agreed to by the Client, will not vary as it is fixed, unless otherwise agreed to by Leapfrog Market and the Client in writing.

Any variations to the scope or requirements of one quote that are requested by the Client will be quoted separately in a new quote with its own defined requirements and with a set fee or price for that requested task, service, job or project.

Once a Client accepts and approves a quote, the accepted approved quote forms a contract and agreement between Leapfrog Market and the Client for Leapfrog Market to provide and/or deliver the defined task, service, job or project to or for the Client and the Client agrees to pay in full any fees or charges set out in the quote.
Leapfrog Market reserves the right to withdraw a proposal or quote at any time.
