it is the true and rightful owner of, or is licensed or otherwise
possesses legally enforceable rights to use the registered and
unregistered rights, titles, and interests in and to any United

property rights of third parties; and (c) that no claims with
respect to the customer's intellectual property rights or third
party intellectual property rights in the materials are currently
pending, nor to the knowledge of the customer, are threatened
by any person, nor, to the customer's knowledge, do any grounds
for any claims exist.
Customer agrees to indemnify, defend, protect, and hold harmless
Disc Makers and its subsidiaries and their respective officers,
directors, agents, affiliates, distributors, franchisees, and
employees (collectively, "indemnified parties") against
any liabilities, losses, claims, damages, punitive damages,
causes of action, lawsuits, administrative proceedings (including
interest from the date of such damages), and costs and expenses
(including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements of every kind, nature, and description) (collectively,
"damages") suffered, sustained, incurred, or paid
by the indemnified parties in connection with, resulting from,
or arising out of, directly or indirectly (i) any claim, demand,
proceeding, or lawsuit by a third party based on any assertion
that the services provided to the customer under this agreement
breaches the patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, or
other proprietary right of such third party and (ii) any breach
of any representation or warranty of the customer set forth
in this agreement or the form, Intellectual Property Ownership
Agreement, Purchase Order, or in any other form or document
in connection herewith.
Disc Makers reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to investigate
the ownership of any and all materials provided hereunder.
The customer agrees to provide Disc Makers, upon request, all

in any way assume an obligation to investigate or verify ownership
of any materials provided by the customer, and Disc Makers may

and provided under Disc Makers' Intellectual Property Rights
Form even if Disc Makers investigates such ownership.
If Disc Makers determines, or has reason to believe, that the
customer does not have the authority to produce the products
sought hereunder, Disc Makers will have no further obligations
to the customer to provide any products or any other services
with respect to such materials, and Disc Makers will return
such materials to the customer.
Pricing and delivery
Disc Makers reserves the right to produce
and bill for production overruns or underruns up to five percent
(5%) of the customer's order. Customer will be billed for actual
amounts shipped.
The customer's order will be delayed if the customer has failed
to provide to Disc Makers all necessary materials (including
without limitation master, graphics, deposit, signed estimate,
signed Intellectual Property Rights Form, and Audio Track Listing).
Quoted or acknowledged delivery dates are only estimated dates
of delivery. Disc Makers specifically disclaims liability for
delays in delivery and any resulting consequential damage or
losses.
In the event a client fails to pay within ninety (90) days for
any work completed, or in the event a client fails to accept
delivery or pick up his finished product within ninety (90)
days from completion, Disc Makers has the right to sell, dispose
of, destroy or use any such material on hand in any way Disc
Makers chooses without any liability by Disc Makers to the customer
or others.
Disc Makers assumes that the client has backups or originals
of all content (including without limitation masters, graphic
files, multimedia files, video files, and audio files) provided
in digital electronic form (including without limitation on
recordable CD or DVD, digital video master, Zip, SyQuest, 1630,
DLT, DAT, or other digital recording medium, or as uploaded
to Disc Makers’ web site via FTP, email, or other means)
for manufacturing. As such, Disc Makers does not
return such electronic content to the customer upon completion
of the order. Disc Makers will return analog masters, original
artwork, photos, transparencies, etc. furnished by the client
upon completion and payment of the order.
Upon completion of any replication or printing order Disc Makers will retain certain production masters (e.g. stampers, label film, original graphics files, and other materials needed to manufacture the product to the customer's specification) for a period of 12 months from the date the product was last ordered or reordered. (Disc Makers will keep electronic back-ups of graphics files for 7 years). After 12 months of inactivity those physical production masters and related parts will be recycled or discarded to create space for active titles. Customer reorders placed after more than 12 months of inactivity will not incur any extra charges so long as Disc Makers can get one copy of the original finished product from the customer at the time of reorder.
While Disc Makers will treat the customer's materials with the
utmost care, Disc Makers specifically denies liability for damage
or loss due to fire, casualty, or negligence while the customer's
materials are in the care and possession of Disc Makers.
Customer's materials stored in Disc Makers' premises are not
insured and are stored strictly at the customer's risk. The
customer agrees to carry insurance coverage for its materials
while at and in transit to and from Disc Makers' premises.

the order, before shipping (no C.O.D.s).
If replication orders are prepaid in full, including freight
and applicable taxes, any overs will be at no charge.
Reorders, rush orders, and printed materials, must be prepaid
in full, including freight and any applicable taxes.
Direct mail fulfillment orders always require postage to be
paid before mailing. The customer will be informed of the exact
postage after we receive customer’s mailing list.
Warranty of product, limitation of liability, and indemnification
Disc Makers guarantees the customer's
satisfaction with art and content proofs. If Disc Makers cannot
satisfy the customer, Disc Makers will refund the entire deposit
amount if customer wants to cancel the project. However, once
proofs are approved Disc Makers will charge for all work and
services performed, even if the project is subsequently canceled.
Disc Makers warrants that material produced and delivered by
Disc Makers meets Disc Makers' standard specifications for the
material or such other specifications as described in this catalog
and meets generally accepted industry standards.
All custom-manufactured and/or printed Disc Makers products
are unconditionally guaranteed against defects in quality and
workmanship. If any custom-manufactured product produced by
Disc Makers from or through the use of materials is found to
be defective in quality, or is shipped or labeled in error,
Disc Makers will replace or repair defective product and/or
correct error in shipment or labeling at its own expense or,
at Disc Makers' option, refund to customer part or all of the
purchase paid to Disc Makers, on the condition that a) written
notice of such defect or error is received by Disc Makers at
its office within thirty (30) days after shipment by Disc Makers
to customer, and b) the defect or error did not result from
a defect or error in the materials supplied by or on behalf
of the customer. If said notice is not received by Disc Makers
within the date indicated above, Disc Makers will be deemed
to be released by customer from any and all liability.
The customer shall return any defective product to Disc Makers
should Disc Makers so request. No merchandise may be returned
to Disc Makers without written return authorization by Disc
Makers. Product reruns or purchase price refunds will be prorated
based on the quantity of defective merchandise returned.
Prior to returning any product, you must obtain an RMA (return
merchandise authorization) number from Disc Makers. The RMA
number must appear on your address label. Disc Makers reserves
the right to refuse delivery of any item returned without an
RMA number.
Disc Makers is not responsible for any loss of revenue or profit
or other financial damages of any kind whatsoever, whether direct
or indirect, suffered by the customer for any reason whatsoever.
Order cancellation
Orders for products not yet manufactured
by Disc Makers may be cancelled by either party at any time.
The customer will be responsible for all costs incurred by Disc
Makers related to pre-manufacturing or manufacturing of any
product, prior to receipt of notice of cancellation. After such
cancellation, the customer's materials and any completed product
may be delivered to the customer only after all sums owed to
Disc Makers have been paid in full by cash or check.
"Recession Fighter" terms and conditions addendum
The following Terms and Conditions are in addition to the terms and conditions above, and apply only to our deeply discounted "Recession Fighter" packages. "Recession Fighter" packages are those with turn times of 12 days or more. All of the above terms and conditions remain in force, except to the extent that the "Recession Fighter" terms below differ.
Payment terms
All orders must be prepaid in full at the time of ordering. Any production overrun will be at no charge. In the unlikely case of a production under run we will issue a refund for the difference.
Pricing
"Recession Fighter" packages are priced at the lowest possible price level. As such, certain services we offer to customers who purchase Disc Makers’ regularly priced packages are not available, or will cost extra. Without limitation, this may include:
- Making corrections to design files supplied by the customer, due to errors or omissions by the customer or designer.
- Requesting a "hard copy" proof printout to be sent to the customer.
- Making changes to an order (quantity, turn time, delivery address, shipping method, etc.) after proofs have been approved.
"Recession Fighter" packages do not qualify for any additional discounts, coupons, promotions, or specials, whether published or unpublished, that may apply to Disc Makers’ regularly priced packages.
Warranty of product, limitation of liability, and indemnification
Disc Makers reserves the right to manufacture "Recession Fighter" packages at licensed production facilities that may not be owned or operated by Disc Makers. We warrant that all product will be manufactured within generally accepted commercial standards. Product is not eligible for rework or reprinting if Disc Makers deems it to be within commercial standards. Disc Makers’ award-winning 200-line screen silk screen on-disc printing is not available. If you require full color on-disc printing, we reserve the right to print your discs at commercially acceptable silk screen or offset printing standards.
We are not responsible for any delays in delivery. To offer you our low "Recession Fighter" pricing, these packages are manufactured when our production facilities have excess capacity, and as such we require scheduling flexibility on the part of the client. Delivery times quoted are only estimates and are not guaranteed. If there is a delay in delivery, Disc Makers can not make any accommodations to the customer, though in certain cases you may be able to pay an expediting fee to speed up your project (not available in all cases). If you order a "Recession Fighter" package, please be flexible with your due date.
