reason, prior to acceptance thereof by 24uNet. Activation of the Services
shall indicate 24uNet's acceptance of this Agreement. Subject to the terms
and conditions of this Agreement, 24uNet will provide to Customer the
Services selected by Customer set forth on the Order Form.
2. Amendment of Agreement.
24uNet may amend or otherwise modify this Agreement. Customer agrees that
24uNet's posting of any amendments or modifications to this website (http://www.24uNet.com/legal/index.php?legal=userAgreement)

consult this web page for any changes or amendments to this Agreement.
24uNet may, but is under no obligation to, provide additional notice of
any amendment, modification or update of this Agreement via e-mail to
Customer. If any material modification to this Agreement is unacceptable
to Customer it shall be Customer's responsibility to terminate their subscription
as provided in Section 3 of this Agreement. If Customer does not terminate
the Agreement then Customer's continued use will mean that Customer has
accepted the amended or modified Agreement.
3. Duration of Agreement and Cancellation Policy.
The Initial Term shall begin upon confirmation of Customer's order or
commencement of the Services to Customer and the Term's length shall be
indicated in the Order Form. After the Initial Term, this Agreement shall
automatically renew for successive terms, equal in length to the Initial
Term, unless terminated or canceled by either party as provided herein.
During the Term this agreement cannot be terminated by customer for any
reason.
This Agreement may be terminated by either party by giving the other party
written notice at least 30 days prior to the renewal/anniversary date
of the Term, or by 24uNet in the event of nonpayment by Customer or by
24uNet, at any time, without notice, if in 24uNet's judgment Customer
has in any way breached this Agreement.
If 24uNet cancels this Agreement pursuant to any of the terms outlined
in this agreement 24uNet shall not refund to Customer any fees paid or
prepaid in advance of such cancellation and Customer shall be obligated
to pay all fees and charges accrued prior to the effectiveness of such
cancellation. Prepaid hosting fees are not refundable, if 24uNet terminates
this agreement for cause. 24uNet shall also have the right to charge customer
a minimum of US$150.00 Breach-Of-Contract fee.
If prior to the end of the agreed on Term, Customer cancels the Services
for any reason, or 24uNet terminates the Agreement due to Customer's breach
of the 24uNet User Agreement or Acceptable Usage Policy, Customer will
be charged an early termination fee equal to the fee for such account
remaining in the term. At no point shall customer receive a refund of
any prepaid service fees.
All sales are final! Except for a cancellation within the first 15 days
after of the service (Limited Money-Back Guarantee) there is no "Cooling-Off
Period" and Customer can not cancel this Agreement prior to the end
of the Term as provided herein for any reason. If Customer cancels this
Agreement before the end of the term customer shall receive no refund
for any prepaid hosting fees and any such fees shall be forfeited. In
the event that Customer cancels within 15 days of ordering the service
by completing the Cancellation Request Form 24uNet will refund the prepaid
hosting fees only to Customer. Setup fees, fees for additional services
as well as fees paid for domain name registration are always nonrefundable.
Customer acknowledges and agrees that the Cancellation Request Form at
http://24unet.com/contactus.html is the ONLY WAY TO EFFECTIVELY CANCEL
a web hosting account with 24uNet and meet potential deadlines to trigger
24uNet's limited Money-Back Guarantee or to avoid automatic renewal. Any
cancellation requests send to or directed to 24uNet by email and/or phone
and/or regular mail shall be null and void. Customer also agrees that
any request for a refund shall be forfeited, if the Cancellation Request
Form at http://24unet.com/contactus.html has not been used to cancel a
web hosting account.
4. Billing and Payment.
All fees for web hosting or other Services are due in advance and shall
be in accordance with 24uNet's fee schedule, which is incorporated herein
by reference and may be amended from time to time. In the event that customer
elects to pay with a credit card Customer authorizes 24uNet to charge
all fees owed to such credit card at the time or up to 30 days before
they become due. Customer agrees to pay a $25.00 (twenty-five dollars)
late fee if customer's account or accounts become more than ten (10) calendar
days overdue or if Customer's credit card is not accepted when a charge
is processed. Fees for renewal periods after the Initial term shall become
due 30 days before the first day of such renewal period. 24uNet may impose
a debt service charge equal to one and one-half percent (1.5%) of the
overdue balance or a lesser amount where required by law for each month
or portion thereof the overdue amount remains unpaid. In addition, in
the event that any amount due 24uNet remains unpaid five (5) calendar
days after such payment is due, 24uNet, in its sole discretion, may immediately
terminate this Agreement, and/or withhold or suspend Services. Customer
agrees that 24uNet may charge a $30.00 (thirty dollars) fee to reinstate
accounts that have been terminated or suspended. All taxes, fees and governmental
charges relating to the Services provided hereunder (other than income
taxes of 24uNet) shall be paid by Customer.
Customer agrees that 24uNet may charge in advance all fees due for the
Services provided to Customer under this agreement to the credit card
supplied by Customer during registration or at any time thereafter and
customer specifically agrees not to charge back any payments 24uNet processes
through Customer's credit card.
Customer acknowledges and specifically agrees that charge backs - which
might occur if Customer disputes 24uNet charges directly with Customer's
credit card bank - are unlawful if 24uNet's service has been rendered.
If customer has a fee dispute with 24uNet he has to settle such dispute
with 24uNet directly without initiating any charge back procedures. Any
charge back will evoke an automatic US$150 (one-hundred-fifty dollars)
service fee, without exception, for which customer will be held responsible
in future collecting procedures.
Returned checks will be assessed a $30.00 charge. Incoming wire transfers
will incur a $25 charge. 5. Special Provisions Applicable to Resellers.
24uNet from time to time may offer reseller programs, which will permit
Customers to resell certain of 24uNet's products and services. If Customer
chooses to resell 24uNet services Customer shall remain a 24uNet customer
for all purposes under this agreement.
Customer agrees that if they resell 24uNet Services, the purchaser of
those resold services will become Customer's customer (a "Reseller
Customer"). A Reseller Customer shall not become a Customer of 24uNet,
and 24uNet will not be required to provide and technical or other support
to any Reseller Customer. Reseller agrees to take all necessary measures
to preclude 24uNet from being made a party to any agreement with any Reseller
Customer. Customer agrees and acknowledges that if they become a Reseller
they will be authorized to resell 24uNet provided Services on a non-exclusive
basis only. Customer's right to resell 24uNet services shall in no way
preclude 24uNet from marketing and selling 24uNet's own products and services
through its own employees, affiliates, other resellers or any other third
party. 24uNet expressly reserves the right to allow other third parties
to resell 24uNet services on any terms 24uNet may chose including terms
which may be more favorable to said third parties then they are to 24uNet
Reseller Customers. Reseller acknowledges that the nonpayment by any customer
of Reseller shall in no way relieve Reseller of any duty in this agreement
include the duty to timely pay all fees. Reseller shall be solely responsible
for all sales, use, transfer, privilege, excise or other taxes and duties
which are levied or imposed on 24uNet and Reseller under this Agreement
and any and all transactions between Reseller and Reseller Customers.
Reseller shall be solely responsible for compliance with any regulations
governing the export of the Services (or any portion thereof).
Reseller shall not resell the Services under 24uNet's brand name accordingly
nothing in this Agreement constitutes a license to Reseller to use or
resell the Marks (as defined below).
6. 24uNet as Reseller or Licensor.
24uNet is acting only as a reseller or licensor of the hardware, software
and equipment used in connection with the products and/or Services that
were or are manufactured or provided by a third party ("Non-24unet
Product"). 24uNet shall not be responsible for any changes in the
Services that cause the Non-24unet Product to become obsolete, require
modification or alteration, or otherwise affect the performance of the
Services. Any malfunction or manufacturer's defects of Non-24uNet Product
either sold, licensed or provided by 24uNet to Customer or purchased directly
by Customer used in connection with the Services will not be deemed a
breach of 24uNet's obligations under this Agreement. Any rights or remedies
Customer may have regarding the ownership, licensing, performance or compliance
of Non-24uNet Product are limited to those rights extended to Customer
by the manufacturer of such Non-24uNet Product. Customer is entitled to
use any Non-24uNet Product supplied by 24uNet only in connection with
Customer's permitted use of the Services. Customer shall use its best
efforts to protect and keep confidential all intellectual property provided
by 24uNet to Customer through any Non-24uNet Product and shall make no
attempt to copy, alter, reverse engineer, or tamper with such intellectual
property or to use it other than in connection with the Services. Customer
shall not resell, transfer, export or re-export any Non-24uNet Product,
or any technical data derived there from, in violation of any applicable
United States or foreign law.
7. IP Address Ownership.
During the course of providing Services to customer 24uNet may assign
to Customer an Internet Protocol address. Customer agrees that it has
no right to a particular IP address under this agreement and accordingly
24uNet shall retain ownership of any IP address or addresses used by Customer
under this agreement and that 24uNet reserves the right to change or remove
any and all such Internet Protocol numbers and addresses, in its sole
and absolute discretion.
8. Caching.
Customer expressly grants to 24uNet a license to cache Customer's Content
including content supplied by third parties and hosted by 24uNet under
this Agreement and Customer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless 24uNet
for any infringement of any third party's intellectual property rights
thereby affected from said caching.
9. No Unauthorized Scripts or Executables.
Customer agrees not to run any scripts, executables or other programs
or processes on 24uNet's servers or other equipment that will in any way
adversely affect the performance of said equipment.
10. Bandwidth and Disk Usage.
Customer agrees that 24uNet will monitor and meter Customer's bandwidth
and disk usage and in the event that Customer exceeds the bandwidth or
disk usage allocated to each hosting package 24uNet may take corrective
action which may, at 24uNet's sole discretion, include the assessment
of additional charges, disconnection or discontinuance of any and all
Services, or termination of this Agreement. Customer agrees that in the
event of a dispute 24uNet's monitoring reports shall be the final method
of determination how much disk space and bandwidth was used and agrees
to pay the excess usage charges when due. Customer's logs files are counted
against any disk usage. Log files cannot be deleted by customer, but will
automatically be deleted once every week. To avoid unfair resource distribution
at no time shall Customer use more than 15 simultaneous processes by and
with any of Customer's applications and not upload any file larger than
10 megabyte. All images in a Customer's hosting account must be linked
to from pages within the Customer's hosting account. It is a violation
of this agreement if Customer uses this account as merely an image, sound
or file library. Binary files such as images, video and sound (i.e. MP3,
WAV, RA, GIF, JPG but not limited to those file extensions) may only account
for a maximum of 50% of Customer's total bandwidth usage before customer
must upgrade to a higher performance solution.
11. Intellectual Property Rights.
Customer acknowledges that 24uNet owns all trade names, trademarks, service
marks, inventions, copyrights, trade secrets, patents, know-how and other
intellectual property rights relating to the Services and their provision.
Customer further acknowledges and agrees that nothing in this Agreement
shall constitute a license to Customer to resell or trade under any of
24uNet's intellectual property.
12. Web Site, E-commerce and Customer Warranties.
Customer shall assume sole responsibility for (a) acquiring any authorization(s)
necessary for hypertext links to third party web sites, (b) the accuracy
of materials on Customer Web Site(s), including, without limitation, Customer
Content, descriptive claims, warranties, guarantees, nature of business,
and address where business is conducted, and (c) ensuring that the Client
Content does not infringe or violate any right of any third party. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, 24uNet reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to exclude
or remove from the Web Site any hypertext links to third party web sites,
any Customer Content on the Web Site, or other content not supplied by
24uNet which, in 24uNet's sole reasonable discretion, may violate or infringe
any law or third party rights or which otherwise exposes or potentially
exposes 24uNet to civil or criminal liability or public ridicule, provided
that such right shall not place an obligation on 24uNet to monitor or
exert editorial control over the Web Site. 24uNet shall in no way be responsible
for Customer's conduct or actions including but not limited to Customer's
handling of third party information such as credit card numbers and any
liabilities incurred by Customer including but not limited to tax liabilities
for the conduct of Customer's on-line business.
Customer shall be solely responsible for the development, operation and
maintenance of Customer's web site and any online store and E-commerce
activities.
13. Disclaimer of Warranty.
Customer agrees that its use of Services and its reliance upon information
provided by 24uNet are entirely at Customer's own risk. Customer acknowledges
and agrees that 24uNet exercises no control over, and accepts no responsibility
for, the content of data, scripts, or other information passing through

to provide the Services.
Under no circumstances, including negligence, shall 24uNet or any of its
employees, owners, or agents be liable for any indirect, incidental, special,
consequential or punitive damages, or loss of profits, revenue, data or
use by Customer, any of its customers, any Reseller Customer or any other
third party, whether in an action in contract or tort or strict liability
or other legal theory, even if 24uNet has been advised of the possibility
of such damages. No 24uNet Person shall be liable to Customer, any of
its customers, any Reseller Customer or any other third party, for any
loss or damages that result or are alleged to have resulted from the use
of or inability to use the Services, or that results from mistakes, omissions,
interruptions, deletion of files, loss of data, errors, viruses, defects,
delays in operations, or transmission or any failure of performance, whether

paid by Customer for the Services which gave rise to such damages, losses
and causes of actions during the twelve (12) month period prior to the
date the cause of action arose or the injury or loss occurred.
Customer understands, acknowledges and agrees that if 24uNet takes any

or any Reseller Customer due to such corrective action by 24uNet.

that may exist in connection with this Agreement. The terms of this section
shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
