This Termination Policy applies to all ongoing service engagements, retainer agreements, and project-based contracts between Advento Digital Solutions ("Advento", "we", "us", "our") and our clients. It sets out the procedure for ending a working relationship, the obligations of both parties during the notice period, and the process for a professional, structured transition.

At Advento, we invest deeply in every client relationship β€” from onboarding and strategy to execution, optimisation, and reporting. Long-term engagements deliver the best outcomes, and our notice period is designed to protect the quality of service delivery and ensure continuity for your business during any transition period.

By engaging Advento under any retainer, project agreement, or service contract, you agree to the terms outlined in this policy.


Advento requires a minimum of 60 calendar days' written notice to terminate any active service engagement. This applies equally to clients wishing to end a service and to Advento should it ever need to terminate an engagement.

⏳

60 Calendar Days. No Exceptions.

The notice period begins on the date the written termination notice is received and confirmed by Advento. Services continue in full, and all fees remain due and payable throughout the entire 60-day period. The notice period cannot be shortened by mutual goodwill alone β€” it must be agreed in writing by both parties.

The 60-day notice period exists for several important reasons. Digital marketing, SEO, advertising campaigns, and web operations are not services that can be switched off overnight without consequence to your business. Active campaigns may have scheduled spend, content in production, live ad sets, and ongoing SEO work that β€” if abandoned mid-cycle β€” can cause measurable harm to your digital presence, rankings, and ad account health.

The notice period provides Advento the time to properly conclude all active work, transfer campaigns cleanly, and ensure that your business is handed over in the best possible condition β€” not abandoned mid-execution. It also gives both parties the opportunity to explore whether the concerns that led to the termination request can be resolved.

⏳
When Does the 60-Day Clock Start? The notice period begins on the date Advento receives and acknowledges your written notice. Verbal notice, hints, or informal conversations do not constitute valid notice. The clock starts only when your written request has been formally confirmed by Advento in writing.

To initiate the termination process, the client must submit a written notice through one of the following channels. A verbal notice, missed call, or informal message will not be treated as a valid termination request under this policy.

  • βœ“
    WhatsApp: Send a clear, written message to +91 6366312856 explicitly stating that you wish to terminate your service engagement and the date from which you intend the notice to run.
  • βœ“
    Email: Send a written notice to Advento's business email with the subject line "Termination Notice β€” [Your Business Name]" and include your service type, engagement start date, and the requested termination date.

Upon receipt, Advento will send a written confirmation acknowledging the notice, confirming the start date of the 60-day period, and confirming the effective end date of your engagement. This confirmation is your record of the agreed termination timeline.

ℹ️
What Your Notice Should Include Your legal or trading name, the services you are terminating, the date you wish the notice to take effect, any specific handover requirements, and a contact person for the transition process. The more clearly your notice is written, the smoother your offboarding will be.

The 60-day notice period is not a cooling-off period where services are wound down β€” it is an active period during which Advento continues to deliver all contracted services at the same standard, and all contractual obligations on both sides remain in full force.

Service Quality During Notice Advento is committed to delivering the same quality of service during the notice period as at any other time in the engagement. Our team will continue to act in the best interests of your business right up to the final day.

All retainer fees, project milestone payments, and agreed charges continue to apply during the full 60-day notice period. Submission of a termination notice does not suspend, reduce, or waive any financial obligation.

  • βœ“Monthly retainer fees for any billing cycle that falls within the notice period are due and payable in full on their standard billing date.
  • βœ“Any outstanding invoices at the date of notice must be settled within the standard payment terms.
  • βœ“Ad budgets already committed to platforms at the time of notice are non-refundable. Unspent ad budgets may be reviewed at Advento's discretion.
  • βœ“Any project milestones due during the notice period remain payable as per the original project agreement.
  • βœ“Failure to settle outstanding fees does not accelerate the handover of client assets. Assets will be released once all financial obligations are met.
⚠️
No Pro-Rata Refunds Terminating mid-billing-cycle does not entitle the client to a pro-rata refund for the unused portion of that cycle. In accordance with Advento's Refund Policy, all payments made are non-refundable. Termination notice does not alter this.

Advento recognises different circumstances under which an engagement may end. All types require the 60-day notice period unless a separate written agreement expressly states otherwise.

Your Assets Are Always Yours All assets created during an Advento engagement remain the intellectual property of the client unless explicitly agreed otherwise. Advento does not retain ownership of any work product upon termination of an engagement.

Certain obligations survive the termination of a service engagement and remain in force for the periods specified in your individual agreement or as outlined below.

  • βœ“
    Confidentiality: Both Advento and the client are bound by confidentiality obligations after termination. Neither party may disclose the other's proprietary business information, strategies, or client data to third parties.
  • βœ“
    Outstanding Payments: Any fees that remain unpaid at the effective termination date continue to be legally owed and recoverable by Advento after the engagement has ended.
  • βœ“
    Non-Disparagement: Both parties agree not to make false, misleading, or defamatory statements about the other party following termination of the engagement.
  • βœ“
    Data Retention: Advento will retain records of the engagement, including communications and deliverables, for a period consistent with applicable legal and business requirements.
  • βœ“
    Re-engagement: Former clients are welcome to re-engage Advento's services at any time. Prior engagement history will be taken into account during onboarding and a fresh agreement will be executed.

If you have questions about this policy or would like to discuss any aspect of your engagement before making a termination decision, we strongly encourage you to speak with us first. Many concerns that lead to termination requests can be resolved with a frank conversation β€” and we are always open to that.

Common Questions
Termination FAQs

Everything you need to know about ending a service engagement with Advento.

Why is a 60-day notice period required?
Digital marketing and IT services involve active campaigns, scheduled ad spend, live SEO work, content in production, and ongoing platform management. Stopping abruptly can cause significant harm to your ad account health, search rankings, and digital presence. The 60-day period allows Advento to wind down services responsibly, prepare all your assets for handover, and ensure your business transitions in the best possible condition. It also gives both parties time to explore whether the issue that prompted the termination request can be resolved.
Can the 60-day notice period be shortened?
In exceptional circumstances, both parties may agree in writing to a shorter notice period. This requires formal sign-off from Advento management and must be documented in a written amendment to your service agreement. A shortened period is not a standard offering and is at Advento's sole discretion. Please contact us to discuss your specific situation.
Do I still have to pay during the notice period?
Yes. All fees continue to apply in full throughout the 60-day notice period. Monthly retainers, milestone payments, and any other agreed charges remain due on their standard billing dates. Submitting a termination notice does not suspend or reduce any financial obligation. Services continue to be delivered at the same standard during this period, and you are entitled to the full service you are paying for.
What is the correct way to give notice?
Notice must be given in writing β€” either via WhatsApp to +91 6366312856 or by email to Advento's business address. Your notice should clearly state your intention to terminate, the services being terminated, your business name, and the date from which you want the notice to run. Advento will confirm receipt in writing, and the 60-day clock begins from that confirmation date.
What happens to my ad campaigns during the notice period?
Advento continues to manage your campaigns throughout the notice period at the same standard. In the wind-down phase (approximately days 31–55), campaigns are gradually optimised for stability and a clean handover rather than aggressive growth, so your account is in a healthy state when transferred. You will receive a full campaign summary at the end of the engagement.
When will I get my assets back?
All client-owned assets β€” ad accounts, creative files, website access, platform credentials, reports, and data β€” will be returned within 14 calendar days of the effective end date of your engagement, provided all outstanding fees have been settled in full. Assets will not be withheld without cause, but outstanding balances must be cleared before the handover is completed.
Can Advento terminate my engagement without notice?
In most circumstances, Advento will provide the same 60-day notice as is required of clients. However, Advento reserves the right to terminate immediately without notice in specific cases: invoices unpaid beyond 30 days, fraudulent or illegal activity, abusive conduct toward Advento staff, or material breach of the service agreement. In such cases, services may be suspended immediately and assets withheld pending settlement of all outstanding amounts.
Can I come back after terminating?
Yes. Former clients are welcome to re-engage Advento at any time. If your business needs change and you wish to work with us again, simply reach out. We will review the engagement history, discuss your current requirements, and if we are a good fit, draft a fresh agreement. A positive offboarding experience makes re-engagement seamless for everyone.
