Under this approach, you understand and acknowledge that the Chat Code will not be included into the Proxy Site. Failure to install, or the removal of, the Chat Code, constitutes a breach of this Agreement. If you do not properly install the Chat Code within 4 months of purchasing the Chat Services, you will forfeit the CPL Budget and your Chat Services will be cancelled — in this circumstance, no additional Cancellation Fee will be payable. Once the Chat Code has been properly installed, functioning and active on the Existing Site, if it is later uninstalled or otherwise becomes inactive for a period of 4 consecutive months, your Chat Services will be cancelled and any unallocated CPL Budget will be forfeited and applied to the applicable Cancellation Fee then due.
- If you are using LOCALiQ’s Tracking Code, LOCALiQ may implement the Chat Services via the Tracking Code without the need to add the Chat Code to the Existing Site.
