Your continued use of the Services following any changes or modifications will constitute your acceptance of such changes or modifications. You agree to receive any updates to the terms in this Agreement by accessing our website.

1. TERMS & EFFECTIVE DATES

B) Either The Company or Customer may terminate this Agreement at any time for any reason upon providing at least a twenty four (24) hour advance notice in writing.

C) Upon termination of this Agreement, Customer must fully pay The Company for all Services partially or fully provided to Customer by The Company prior to termination. Additional cancellation terms are outlined in Section 3 of this Agreement. If credits remain in Customer’s account, they will be forfeited upon cancellation. Credits are non-refundable.

D) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article, The Company reserves the right to immediately terminate this Agreement by and between any Customer believed to conduct, participate in, allow, or facilitate any prohibited activity as described in our Acceptable Use Policy.

2. TERMS OF SERVICE

A) Service(s) Provided: The Company will provide Customer with the Service(s) ordered, as they are described on our website, billing system, or in a custom quote. In case of a conflict, the billing system or quote takes priority. Customer understands and agrees that The Company will host and create the Services solely in accordance with the information provided by Customer. Customer agrees to use The Company’s Services in accordance to this Agreement, including The Company’s Acceptable Use Policy.

B) Customer Support: The Company, either directly or through its assignee or licensee, will provide support to Customer relating to The Company Services. Any support which The Company may provide to you shall be at The Company’s sole discretion and once commenced, may be terminated at any time by The Company without notice to you and without any liability to The Company. The Company will provide reasonable technical support via their ticket system to Customer during The Company’s normal technical support hours. Notwithstanding any discretionary provision of customer support, The Company has no contractual obligation beyond maintaining basic server function. The Company will keep Customer’s Service up and functional, and will address Customer support tickets within a reasonable response time. Additional provisions are outlined in The Company’s Support Policy.

C) Bandwidth Overage: Going over your allocated bandwidth will result in Service overage fee(s). Customer is responsible for their Service(s), so please ensure that you secure your passwords and server correctly to avoid any overages. Bandwidth either resets on the first day of the month or at the recurring payment date of your Service, depending on the specific Service. Service overage fees are assessed on the first day following the last day of the previous billing cycle. In the event that Customer cancels Service prior to the last day of the billing cycle, an invoice for any bandwidth overage will be generated and due immediately. If Customer cancels service at the end of the billing cycle, an invoice will be generated at the close of the cycle for any bandwidth overage and due immediately.

D) Shared Hosting Disk Space: Disk space on Shared Hosting is allocated based on the plan ordered. Customer is permitted to use more disk space than allowed by the plan ordered, however an overage fee will be assessed for the additional disk space used. Disk space may be used for any purpose, except for any activity or purpose prohibited by the Acceptable Use Policy.

D) IP Change/Blacklist: In the event that you receive an IP address that is on a blacklist, you have up to 24 hours from your order date to report it to The Company for a change. Any other IP changes after this initial 24 hour period will result in an IP change fee, as stated in our Fee Schedule. Please keep in mind that The Company reserves the right to charge a $25 fee if your Service(s) is cancelled/suspended and The Company has a reason to believe that you caused the IP address to go on a blacklist due to e-mail spam.

E) Abuse Policy: Customer acknowledges that any prohibited activity as described in The Company’s Acceptable Use Policy may result in immediate cancellation/termination without refund or notice. However, at our discretion, we will generally follow the guidelines below:

• First offense: Customer contacted; abuse report sent — response required within 24 hours or suspension;

• Second offense: Customer’s Service suspended; Customer must contact The Company to appeal abuse report;

• Third offense: Customer account closed — all Services will be suspended and terminated.

• If the abuse report is from a third party, The Company may or may not require system logs or other evidence of the incident. However, The Company understands that the legitimacy of these reports are sometimes questionable. The Company urges Customer to respond in a timely manner so that The Company can assess each case before making a decision regarding Termination or Suspension. The Company retains the discretion to charge, and Customer agrees to pay, a $25 administration fee associated with any Suspension or Termination, which may automatically be charged to your account. Third party reports or requests will be subject to our Copyright (DMCA) Policy and Privacy Policy.

F) Affiliate Program: Customers who promote The Company’s Services can request to join our “Affiliate Program,” in which qualifying Customers are remitted a portion of the revenue resulting from their promotion of The Company. The current default payout rate is recurring 20% with a minimum payout of $50.00 and payments made periodically via PayPal upon withdrawal request by Customer or applied as account Credit. Any promotional amounts above 20% may be changed at any time, and all change in payout amounts apply to all future commission calculations. Promotional amounts are void if coupon is used and in recurring cases The Company may revert payout rate to the default payout rate. The Company reserves the right to modify payout amounts at any time, without notice, and may change rates per Customer based on referral volume, type, and profit. The Company must verify to its satisfaction that Customer legitimately promoted The Company’s Services. Customer must use best effort to ensure they do not knowingly result in fraudulent payments or referring/promoting The Company to existing The Company users. Customers must abide by the policies enclosed in this Agreement and The Company has a strict no-spam policy; Customers who use mass mail or spam (including but not limited to: cookie stuffing, unsolicited e-mails, non-disclosure, providing false information, self-referrals) to disseminate a The Company referral link, or Customers that have their account closed as a result of any abuse or policy breach, will be subject to Suspension and/or Termination and forfeit any claim to remittances in connection with the Affiliate Program. Affiliate Program members are responsible for following all applicable rules and laws regarding affiliate programs.

G) Free Offers: Any Services offered for free as part of another plan are intended for use for that Customer’s plan only. Customers who resell/transfer such free Services to others are in violation of this Agreement, and The Company reserves the right to cancel the free offer.

3. BILLING & FEES

A) Agreement to pay: As consideration for The Company’s Services, Customer agrees to be charged upon request and/or use of any The Company Service(s), including any fees assessed in connection therewith. Customer agrees to pay The Company the aggregate fees, whether one-time or periodic, in whole, when due, based on the provided Services and terms selected, according to the terms provided herein. Services are provided as they are described and at the price advertised (in US Dollars) on The Company’s website. The Company reserves the right to demand payment in full when due, and does not waive that right in the event of any discretionary deferment.

B) Fee Schedule: The Company’s Fee Schedule reflects the current charges for Services performed outside of regular support boundaries. Customer agrees to be charged and to pay for any fees assessed by The Company in accordance with this Agreement. The Company reserves the right to modify the posted fees at any time, active upon posting, without direct notice to the Customer, who agrees to receive any updates to our Fee Schedule by accessing this Agreement on our website. Customer must upgrade to a regular, non-discounted plan to be able to use any additional Services. If Customer’s plan was purchased at a promotional or discounted price, that discount is voided if any of the fees in the Fee Schedule are requested or assessed.

C) Fraud Protection: The Company uses automated fraud protection on all orders, so please enter all billing information correctly. Do not use proxies when ordering, and do not try to mask your identity in any way. Rest assured that the information is used for billing purposes only, subject to our Privacy Policy. If you trigger the fraud system, you may correct your details and attempt to re-order, but if the issue persists, please contact our support team or await a manual response from our team. All payments may require additional documentation for security purposes, such as photo identification or signature. The Company reserves the right to deny orders, cancel and refund payments for any reason, at any time, which may result in immediate termination. However, out of courtesy, The Company may contact Customers to resolve any discrepancies in your payments or documentation, or notify Customers if additional documents are required. If you are found to be using the Service(s) for fraudulent or abusive activity, your information will be reported to Fraud Record, a third-party fraud reporting service, using a salted-one-way hash. By filing a report, you may have difficulties obtaining service from other hosting providers. Under no circumstances will The Company accept an order from anyone who has been reported for Spam sending within the last five (5) years.

D) Authorization and Cancellation: By making a payment, Customer agrees that all charges, as well as future charges, are authorized. Customer has thirty (30) days to dispute any aspect of The Company’s billing. In the event that a payment is disputed, The Company may suspend or terminate Service(s) or the Customer’s account, and Customer is responsible for covering any losses, in addition to any fees such as charge-back fees, as well as attorneys’ fees. If the matter is resolved, Customer is responsible for paying any applicable Service re-instatement or re-connection fees.

E) Recurring Payments: If Customer signs up for a Service involving recurring payments, Customer is responsible for cancelling Service(s) twenty-four (24) hours before the end of the billing term, otherwise an invoice for the next billing term will be generated and due. The Company automatically captures payments one (1) day before the end of the billing term, but reserves the right to do so as soon as seven (7) days before the end of the billing term. Customer permits The Company to reattempt to capture payment if the first capture attempt fails. Any late captured payments will not prevent Service termination and you must contact The Company to have your Services manually re-activated. The Company will not honor any refunds as a result of Customer’s failure, mistake, disregard, or neglect to cancel their subscription in a timely manner. Thus, it is Customer’s responsibility to send in a cancellation request in a timely manner through The Company’s automated system by clicking the “cancel” button and completing cancellation. “Cancellation” means that the Service will be fully terminated at the end of the term, and no invoice will be generated for the next term; therefore, please do not request a cancellation in attempt to disable recurring billing. Please also keep in mind that The Company’s automated system is not capable of doing refunds for BitCoin or other Cryptocurrency payments in any situation, and Customers who use BitCoin or other Cryptocurrency forfeit any refund claim granted in these terms or otherwise.

F) PayPal Subscriptions: For recurring PayPal payments, Customer bears the responsibility to cancel the subscription from PayPal, if necessary. Any PayPal subscriptions that are not cancelled, even if Customer’s Service is cancelled by The Company, will result in the funds being deposited into Customer’s The Company account, and subject to The Company’s strict deposit terms in this Article—no refunds.

G) Administration Fee: Customer agrees to pay a twenty-five dollar ($25.00) Administration Fee, which will be charged to Customer’s account in the event of the following situations, also reflected in our Fee Schedule:

1. Any returned payment and/or collections efforts;

2. Any withdrawal of Customer credits (if offered);

3. Any disputes/holds/chargebacks on payment;

4. Any suspension or termination due to prohibited account behavior;

5. Any suspension that necessitates manual processing outside our automated system;

6. Any custom billing administration outside of current Company policies;

7. Any blocklisting caused per IP address;

H) Suspension and Termination: “Suspension” means Customer cannot use their Service(s), which can be automatically resumed after payment is made. “Termination” means Customer’s Service(s) and associated data are lost forever, with outstanding balance still due. The Company is not responsible for data loss due to Termination. In the event that Customer does not request to cancel their Services and an invoice is generated, but not paid, it will remain as an invoice and must be paid, even after Termination for failure to pay. This invoice must be paid before Customer can successfully make a new order in the future. Customer may pay the invoice at any time by contacting customer support. Customer is required to pay off any invoices generated. The Company is not required to remove already-generated invoices for existing Services, as The Company has made the cancellation policy very clear. Dedicated servers which are suspended may be subject to a reconnection fee.

I) Invoices: Customer agrees to be charged and make payment immediately when a new invoice is generated. Invoices are generated as soon as a new Service is ordered and automatically seven (7) days before the next billing term for existing Services. If Customer orders a new Service and decides to cancel the order once an invoice is already generated but before payment, The Company will automatically remove the invoice periodically. However, if Customer makes an error and wants to create a new order immediately, The Company can clear the erroneous invoice and replace it according to Customer’s request. For existing Services, once an invoice is generated, Customer is required to make the payment before the due date. The Company suspends your Service three (3) days after the due date, and terminates Customer’s Service completely after thirty (30) days of being overdue.

J) Refund Policy: The Company will offer a full refund for any Services requested to be discontinued within 45 days of purchase; however, exclusions apply as follows:

• This guaranteed refund only applies to the first refund for the first and single payment on a single Service that the Customer requests, limited per client, per household (such as using the same internet connection, address, payment information.) This guaranteed refund does not include any “One-time Setup Fees” or “Monthly Additions” ordered. Afterward, The Company will handle refund requests on a case-by-case basis at our sole discretion;

• Certain Services and fees are non-refundable. These include any domain name purchases, special/custom purchases, limited support packages, dedicated servers, domain registrations, administrative fees, software licensing fees, and any product specifically labeled as non-refundable;

• Setup fees and any services performed (listed on our Fee Schedule) are non-refundable;

• Payments made as cryptocurrency;

• PayPal payments are made as partial refunds, less the cost of the PayPal service fee; and

• No refunds are given for ANY services (account-wide) in cases of ANY abuse, suspension, or closure of account.

Generally, this means The Company will give Customers a 100% refund for any other hosting or VPS plan for which Customer requests a cancellation and refund within 45 days of purchase. In the event of qualifying down-time, Customer’s account will be credited in accordance with this Agreement and The Company’s Service Level Agreement. If Customer forgets to cancel a recurring payment and does not wish to keep the Service(s), The Company reserves the discretion to offer account credit upon contact within 24 hours. If Customer downgrades Services, Customer will receive a prorated credit added to next term’s invoice: not a refund. All payments made through our deposit system are non-refundable. The Company retains the sole discretion to make refunds without waiving the provisions herein.

K) Collection Efforts: You shall pay all costs of collection, including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs, in the event any invoice requires collection efforts. All accounts referred to a collection agency shall be subject to an additional fee of $25.00, which must be paid in full before the account is reactivated.

L) Currency Fluctuations: International Customers and Customers paying with cryptocurrency bear the risk of currency fluctuations and any fees or taxes associated with the conversion of foreign currencies or cryptocurrency into United States Dollars. The Company reserves the right to withhold Service to Customers until we are able to receive satisfactory confirmation from such Customer’s payment account provider, in our sole discretion, that the funds will be available for debit from the Customer’s account. The Company reserves the right to refuse to provide Service to Customers whose country provided in the contact information does not match that on file for the billing information.

High availability network device solutions will be available 100% of the time. The Company will work with you to test the reliability of the high availability solution as part of the implementation process; proper testing must be completed for this commitment to apply.

H) Remedy for Hardware Replacement and High Availability: If The Company fails to meet the commitments stated in sections F and G and the failure adversely affects your hosted system, you are entitled to a credit in the amount of 5% of your monthly recurring fee per half hour of downtime (after the one hour from problem identification referenced in section F), up to 100% of the monthly recurring fee for the affected component for any calendar month.

Backups will be retained for the time agreed in the service description or other written agreement. The default backup schedule is nightly backups with a seven day retention period.

K) Data Restoration:

• LOCAL RESTORES: We will initiate restoration of your data stored onsite within two (2) hours of the time that you request the restore via a support ticket.

• REMEDY: If we fail to restore the data that you have selected for backup in accordance with the standards stated in this “Restoration of Backed Up Data” section, you are entitled to a service credit of $250 per event, up to 100% of your monthly recurring fee for the affected configuration for any calendar month.

L) Service and System Monitoring: Service and System Monitoring is available as an addon service or is included in select support plans. These provisions only apply to customers with active system monitoring.

• Availability Monitoring: The Company will monitor up to 6 TCP ports (HTTP, HTTPS, SMTP, POP3, etc.) per server for service availability. General server availability is tested every five (5) minutes via ping. You will be alerted via ticket if port or ping monitors fail three consecutive times.

• Fault Monitoring: The Company monitors status events on servers and network devices including network availability, process status, file system and capacity.

• Performance Monitoring: The Company monitors key performance metrics for the operating system, select applications and databases.

• Notification of Monitoring Alerts: We will notify you of monitoring alerts within the time frames stated in the “Support” section above.

• Remedy: If we fail to meet the monitoring alert notification commitments stated in this “Monitoring” section, you are entitled to a credit of $250 per event, up to 100% of your monthly recurring fee for the affected hosted system for any calendar month.

M) Limitations on Credits:

• Cumulative Dollar Amount: Notwithstanding anything in this SLA to the contrary, the maximum total credit for any calendar month for failure to meet Service Level commitments under this Agreement, shall not exceed 100% of your monthly recurring fee for the affected hosted system. Credits that would be available but for this limitation will not be carried forward to future months.

• Maintenance: You are not entitled to a credit for downtime or outages resulting from Maintenance. “Maintenance” means: A) HOSTING INTELLECT MAINTENANCE WINDOWS: upgrades or repairs to shared infrastructure, such as core routing or switching infrastructure that we scheduled at least 72 hours in advance and that occurs during off peak hours in the time zone where the data center is located; B) SCHEDULED CUSTOMER MAINTENANCE: maintenance of your configuration that you request and that we schedule with you in advance (either on a case by case basis, or based on standing instructions), such as hardware or software upgrades; C) EMERGENCY MAINTENANCE: critical unforeseen maintenance needed for the security or performance of your configuration or The Company’s network. We require that all servers remain patched to the approved The Company patch level.

• Force Majeure/Extraordinary Events: You are not entitled to a credit for downtime or outages resulting from an event of Force Majeure (as described in Section 19.6 of the TOS), denial of service attacks, virus attacks, hacking attempts, and/or any other circumstances that are not within our control.

• Your Breach of the Agreement: You are not entitled to a credit if you are in breach of the Agreement at the time of the occurrence of the event giving rise to the credit until you have cured the breach. You are not entitled to a credit if the event giving rise to the credit would not have occurred but for your breach of the Agreement.

• Disabling or Removing of Monitoring or Security Services, Interference with Services: You must notify us in advance if you plan to disable, block, or remove any monitoring or security element of your hosting service for more than thirty (30) minutes. We will not issue you any credit for events that might have been avoided or mitigated if you had not disabled, blocked or removed our monitoring or security elements, or otherwise interfered with our ability to provide the Services.

• Logical Access: This SLA is contingent on The Company having full logical access to your configuration. No credit will be due if the credit would not have accrued but for your restriction of The Company’s logical access to your configuration.

• Data Center Upgrades: We are constantly upgrading our data center facilities and in order for you to benefit from these upgrades, you agree that we may relocate your servers within our data centers, make changes to the provision of the Services, URLs and your IP addresses and may establish new procedures for the use of the Services. In each case we will give you reasonable advance notice and use all reasonable endeavors to minimize the effect that such change will have on your use of the Services.

N) Measurement of Time: For the purpose of determining whether a credit is due, time periods will be measured from the time stamp generated by our ticket system, or the time an interruption is recorded in our monitoring system, as applicable. You may open a support ticket to document the start time for a support request or other incident, or if you contact us by telephone to request support, we will open a ticket. If you contact us by phone, there may be a delay between the time of the call and the time we open a ticket.

O) Making a SLA Credit Request: You must request a credit in writing either via a support ticket or by postal mail no later than seven (7) days of submission of the initial trouble ticket or support call. We will contact you within 30 days to approve or reject the claim or to request more information. If the claim is approved, the credit will appear on your monthly invoice following approval.

9. ZERO-TOLERANCE SPAM POLICY

A) Zero-Tolerance Approach: The Company has a ZERO-tolerance spam policy regarding the sending of unsolicited or bulk e-mails. This includes but is not limited to borrowed lists, purchased lists from 3rd party vendors, selling of lists, etc. Any The Company user who is caught sending out spam from a Company server will be subject to immediate account termination.

B) Definition of Spam: Spam is the act of sending unsolicited e-mail or online communications to individuals or businesses who have not agreed to receive your e-mails. Spam is considered Spam whether it is a single e-mail or a bulk mailing sent out to thousands of recipients. Contrary to popular belief, buying a list of email addresses from a third party and emailing them individually or in bulk is also considered Spam. Lists where a person is required to request e-mail removal via an opt-out request is also considered spam. You are not allowed to hire a company to mail out to a list of people who did not request to receive your information beforehand, therefore it is also considered spam. Hosted websites found to be “spamvertised” are subject to suspension and/or termination at the discretion of The Company.

C) Examples of Spam: Spam is considered as including, but not limited to, the following examples:

• Any e-mail correspondence sent to a recipient who had previously subscribed to receive e-mails but later opted-out by indicating to the sender that they did not want to receive additional e-mail.

• Any Email that contains any false or misleading information.

• Any e-mail correspondence sent to Email addresses that have been harvested from websites and sent out in bulk.

• Any e-mail correspondence sent out which does not provide an option to unsubscribe from future mailings.

D) Account Owner Responsibility: As the owner of your e-mail lists you are fully responsible for the behavior of 3rd party vendors which you hire or solicit to perform your company mailings. Any violation by a third party will be considered a violation by you and will be subject to your account being terminated.

E) IP Address Listing: Additionally, we will terminate any account that causes our IP addresses to be blacklisted, whether intentional or not. We also reserve the right to require changes, disable or terminate any site that does not comply with our spam policies. We also reserve the right to charge any account holder for cleanup fees or blacklist removal charges, as determined by The Company.

10. SUPPORT POLICY

A) Official Support Channels: We will only provide Support Services through our helpdesk, email, telephone to customers who have purchased phone support, or live chat. We don’t provide our Support Service through any other channel (including, but not limited to Twitter or Skype) at this time. You will need to submit a ticket using the helpdesk or send a direct email in order to take advantage of our Support Service and bear in mind what we do support when submitting your ticket.

B) Providing Access Details: We may ask you to send us your login details if we need them in order to assist you. Our helpdesk tickets and information you share with us through these helpdesk tickets are confidential. For sensitive information like login credentials or private keys, we offer encrypted fields which store the sensitive information encrypted in our support database and is deleted when the ticket is closed. Only you and our support team will see your ticket.

C) Knowledge Base Disclaimer: Our knowledge base contains answers to common questions and may help answer questions you may have. This knowledge base is relatively generic and may not be directly relevant to your specific query. Information in the knowledge base is provided without warranty and Customer should follow any specific advice with tentativeness and alertness.

D) Priority Support: We offer Customers the ability to purchase Priority Support. This expedites a single ticket ahead of standard support tickets, but does not take priority over downed services, critical Service emergency, scheduled or unscheduled maintenance, Premium support tickets, or access to support channels or levels of support not included in the Customer’s Support Plan. Priority Support is purchased during the ticket creation process or after a ticket has been created. If The Company, at its discretion, determines the issue to not be Priority, the escalation fee will be returned to the Customer’s account credit balance. No refunds are issued on Priority tickets.

E) Premium Support: Customers with a VPS or Dedicated Server Service may subscribe to a monthly Premium Support plan. Premium Support features additional support services not provided with standard support, including phone support. Customers with Premium support are entitled to telephone support during the hours indicated. Premium Support is a per-service subscription, not a per-account subscription. Premium Support is non-refundable. If Customer terminates Premium support, unused time will be forfeited.

F) Customer Communication: The Company understands that when contacting Support, it is usually not for good reasons. We try to solve every technical problem that comes into our helpdesk in a proficient and reasonable way. In order to solve issues, we need proper communication from Customer reporting the problem or issue. Customer is expected to communicate with The Company staff in a polite manner, regardless of support channel. The Company may, at its sole discretion, terminate communication due to inappropriate behavior from Customer. Examples of such behavior include, but are not limited to:

• Harassment or assault on staff;

• Profanity, whether spoken or written, especially when asked not to;

• Reluctance to provide reasonable information to solve the problem;

• Yelling or engaging in threatening tones;

• Making threats against staff, the Company, our Vendors, our Suppliers, or our Affiliates;

• Unwillingness to resolve the issue; and

• Abuse of support channels, such as flooding.

Customer may lose access to one or more Support Channels either on a temporary or permanent basis if Customer violates the terms of this Agreement.
