Scope and Services

AURA undertakes, on a best-efforts basis, to provide you with the following digital services:
1. Design and implementation of a personalised portfolio website incorporating the content you supply (photographs, biography, videos, hyperlinks).
2. Hosting of the website, technical maintenance, and management of an associated domain name.
3. Periodic updates of the portfolio content based on new material you provide.
4. Enhanced visibility on the AURA platform, including the main website and associated social media channels.

Obligations of the Parties

Obligations of AURA
* Perform the services with diligence and professionalism within a reasonable time after receipt of the initial payment and necessary content.
* Guarantee confidentiality of the information you provide, in full compliance with the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) and, where applicable, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
* Use the content you provide solely for the purposes set out in these Terms and not disclose it to third parties without your prior consent.

Your Obligations
* Supply content that is lawful, original, and free from third-party rights.
* Authorise its use in accordance with these Terms.
* Make payments on the dates agreed and inform AURA without delay of any relevant changes.

Image Rights and Intellectual Property

You grant AURA a non-exclusive, worldwide, revocable licence to use, reproduce, and distribute the content you provide (photographs, texts, videos, or other material) on all AURA platforms.
You warrant that you hold all necessary rights in such content and undertake to fully indemnify and hold harmless AURA against any and all claims, actions, losses, damages, liabilities, costs, or expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’, experts’, and court fees) arising from any breach or alleged breach of image rights, intellectual property rights, or any other third-party rights related to the content you provide. This indemnification obligation shall survive termination of the contract and shall cover all direct and indirect damages suffered by AURA, including in the context of judicial or extrajudicial proceedings.
This licence shall continue for twelve (12) months following termination of the services, after which AURA shall delete the content within thirty (30) calendar days. You retain full ownership of your rights under the Swiss Federal Act on Copyright and Related Rights (CopA).

Pricing and Payment

The services are invoiced as follows:
1. A one-time initial payment, due upon ordering, covering portfolio design and set-up fees.
2. A recurring monthly payment covering hosting, maintenance, domain-name management, and content updates.
Amounts, due dates, payment methods, and applicable taxes are specified in the invoice that forms an integral part of these Terms. In the event of late payment, AURA will issue a formal reminder. If payment is not regularised within ten (10) days, services may be suspended without prejudice to statutory default interest. All payments made are non-refundable except in the event of intentional or gross misconduct by AURA that is duly proven.

Term and Termination – Monthly Rolling Contract

These Terms enter into force on the date of payment of the initial invoice and run on a monthly rolling basis.
Either party may terminate the agreement at any time by giving thirty (30) calendar days’ written notice (registered mail with acknowledgement of receipt or e-mail with explicit confirmation of receipt).
Payments due until the effective termination date remain payable. AURA may terminate these Terms with immediate effect and without compensation in the event of serious breach by you, in particular persistent non-payment or supply of unlawful or non-compliant content. Upon termination, AURA shall cease using your content in accordance with previous terms.

Confidentiality and Data Protection

Both parties undertake to keep confidential all information exchanged. AURA acts as data controller of your personal data and processes it in full compliance with the FADP and, where applicable, the GDPR. You expressly consent to such processing for the performance of the services.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by Swiss law, in particular the Swiss Code of Obligations, excluding conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the ordinary courts of the Canton of Vaud, subject to appeal to the Swiss Federal Supreme Court.

Final Provisions

These Terms constitute the entire agreement between the parties and supersede all prior arrangements, whether written or oral. Any amendment must be made in writing and signed by both parties (or their duly authorised representatives). If any provision is held invalid, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. All annexes (in particular the invoice) form an integral part of these Terms.
