Upon completion of the Project, the Client shall make full payment of the fees to the Beeclue upon which the Beeclue shall make live or deploy the completed website to the third-party hosting server and the Beeclue reserves the right to charge additional fees to the Client for this service.

Once the Beeclue has delivered the website to the Client, the Client shall have a period of 14 working days (the “Acceptance Test Period”) to test the Website to ensure it conforms to the Project Specification (the “Acceptance Test”). Acceptance of the Website may only be withheld by the Client if it can demonstrate that the Website does not conform materially to the Project Specification. Upon completion of the Acceptance Test, the Client shall confirm to the Beeclue that the Project is complete (the “Project Release”).

Acceptance of the Website shall be deemed to have taken place upon the occurrence of any of the following events:

- the Client uses any part of the Website other than for test purposes.

Upon receipt of the Project Release or deemed acceptance, the Beeclue shall have no further obligations to undertake any work in relation to the Project.

Where the Client has notified the Beeclue of any delay, the Client will provide the Beeclue with a revised timetable for supplying such Client Content or input.
