Due to the wide scope of services PoSilCo Media (Pty) Ltd delivers we have various Terms and Conditions that govern our delivery and interaction with clients. When making use of our website or any of the PoSilCo services you confirm that you have read, are in agreement with and bound by all the Terms and Conditions that are relevant to you/your organization (should you be representing an organization).

These Terms and Conditions may be changed at any time without prior notice. We will make changes by modifying our website and updating it to https://www.PoSilCoMedia.com/terms/.

Below are our Terms and Conditions. Please note that they should all be read in conjunction with one another and the Agreement the client has signed.

Definitions:

  • The Client: The company or individual requesting the services of PoSilCo Media.
  • PoSilCo: PoSilCo Media (Pty) Ltd (Previously Trading as iLa Digital (Pty) Ltd), its owners, members, shareholders & employees or affiliates.
General Terms & Conditions

DIGITAL MEDIA PLAYER HARDWARE

Each screen/TV requires its own Media Player. All our Media Players include the following:

  • 1 X Media Player *1 Year Warranty (EXCLUDES damage to Media Player and SD Card due to load shedding and power surge)
  • 1 X 0.5m HDMI Cable,
  • 1 X Power Supply for Media Player,

The purchase price of our Media Player is for our digital media player hardware only and does not include: a TV/Display; cables (other than noted in the Description); the SD card that is supplied with the player; player setup; installation; delivery; monthly service fee (software licence, player link subscription and support); design work; onsite support and consultation.

Quoted hardware prices are only valid for 7 days due to the volatility of the South African Rand (our media player hardware is imported).

A turnaround time of ten business days is needed from hardware payment date to have the media players ready for delivery.

Hardware Installation Environment

Once the media players have been setup and configured, we will deliver them to your store. The media players are “plug and play” and no installation is required. Should the client require Posilco to connect the Media Player there will be an additional charge per Media Player.

The client will provide the following:

  • An installed TV/Display with an HDMI input (We recommend Samsung, LG or Hisense);
  • An electrical outlet within cable distance of 1 meter from where Media Player will be mounted;
  • A two-point plug as the media player power brick has a two-point plug;
  • Easy access to the electrical outlet and enough space for the power supply to remain plugged in;
  • Easy access to the back of the TV/Display;
  • Fast and stable Wi-Fi in every location where a media player will be placed. We recommend a fibre installation as the media player requires quite a bit of data, but 4 Meg+ Uncapped ADSL will suffice.

MONTHLY SERVICE FEE

Posilco Media charges a service fee per Media Player/Screen per calendar month (Non-Prorated). Our monthly service fee includes the following:

  • Media Player Licence
  • Telephonic and Remote Support

Please note that the aforementioned only includes telephonic and remote support, the software licence and player link subscription per media player and does not include any hardware, player setup, installation, delivery, design work, content scheduling, consultation or onsite support fees.

The Media Player Software requires the Monthly Media Player Licence to function.

Effective Date

The service start date (Effective Date) will be on the day that the media player is delivered to the client.

MEDIA DISPLAY UPDATE

We charge an hourly rate in 15-minute slots for the design, upload and scheduling of content to your media display. Design, upload and scheduling fees are invoiced at the end of each month.

Process and Turnaround Time

All text content (Product Details, Price, etc) and images where applicable can be emailed to or sent via WhatsApp to +27 (0)71 890 5550.

We have a turnaround time of no more than 8 business hours. Our business hours are Monday to Friday from 8:00 to 17:00 (GMT+2)

GENERAL

This agreement will begin on the Effective Date (Per Media Player) and remain in effect for 12 months (The Term). The client agrees to our Terms and Conditions by signing this agreement or when the Client makes payment on an invoice or quotation.

This agreement may be terminated earlier pursuant to Section (a), below. The period from the Effective Date until termination will sometimes be referred to as the “Term.”
