Terms & Conditions.
Last updated: March 25, 2026.
Please read these terms and conditions carefully before using our industrial-grade digital marketing and design services.
1. Interpretation and Definitions
Definitions
For the purposes of these Terms and Conditions:
- Company refers to IIRON MEDIA GROUP LLC DBA Monsters in Marketing.
- Service refers to Web Design, Local SEO, Digital Infrastructure Management, and any other marketing services provided.
- You/The Client means the individual or business entity accessing our Service.
- Infrastructure refers to the website code, hosting environment, and SEO frameworks built by the Company.
2. Fees, Payments, & Engineering Tolls
By engaging Monsters in Marketing, You agree to the following financial terms:
- Payment Schedules: Project-based fees (like Web Design) typically require a 50% deposit before engineering begins. Recurring SEO services are billed monthly in advance.
- Late Fees: Payments overdue by more than 15 days may incur a late fee or lead to a temporary suspension of Service.
- Suspension of Infrastructure: If a recurring payment fails, the Company reserves the right to pause SEO active management and hosting until the account is brought current.
3. Intellectual Property & Ownership
We believe You should hold the keys to Your kingdom. Our standard policy is as follows:
- Client Ownership: Upon final payment, You own the custom front-end design, the content provided, and Your domain name.
- Monster Property: Any proprietary “Monster” tools, software snippets, or backend plugins used to enhance your site remain the property of the Company or their respective licensors.
- Portfolio Rights: The Company retains the right to display Your project in our portfolio and marketing materials as a “Monster Result” unless otherwise agreed upon in writing.
4. SEO & Performance Disclaimer
Marketing is an engineering process, not a magic trick. To protect both parties, please acknowledge:
- No Ranking Guarantees: While we follow Google’s most aggressive best practices, third-party search engines change their algorithms constantly. No agency can 100% guarantee a specific #1 spot indefinitely.
- Technical Liability: We are not responsible for ranking drops caused by the Client making unauthorized changes to the site’s code, structure, or content.
5. Client Obligations
For the “Monster Machine” to work, You must provide the necessary fuel:
You agree to provide all requested assets (logos, photos, business info) in a timely manner. Delays in providing these assets will result in a commensurate delay in project launch, for which the Company is not liable.
6. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall Monsters in Marketing or its suppliers be liable for any special, incidental, indirect, or consequential damages whatsoever (including, but not limited to, damages for loss of profits, loss of data, or business interruption) arising out of the use of or inability to use the Service.
7. Termination
Either party may terminate a recurring SEO agreement with a 30-day written notice. Upon termination and final payment, we will assist in the handover of Your digital assets. Failure to pay final balances will result in the withholding of migration assistance.
8. Governing Law
The laws of the State of Illinois (or the state where IIRON MEDIA GROUP LLC is registered), excluding its conflicts of law rules, shall govern these Terms and Your use of the Service.
