Terms of Service

Welcome to Active Server, Active Server's Web site hosting services!

Active Server ("Active Server") and describes the terms and conditions that apply to such purchase and use of the Services. If you have registered for Co-Location Services, then the term "Services" shall also include such Co-Location Services so that this Agreement will govern your purchase and use of all such Services (including Co-Location Services); provided, however, that your purchase and use of the Co-Location Services shall also be governed by the terms and conditions set forth in the Addendum A to this Agreement. If you did not register for Co-Location Services, however, then Addendum A is inapplicable to your purchase and use of the Services. For purposes of this Agreement, the Shared Hosting Services include the E-Commerce Services. You must register and accept the terms of this Agreement in order to use the Services. BY CLICKING ON THE "I ACCEPT" BUTTON BELOW, AND REGISTERING FOR AND USING THE SERVICES, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ THIS AGREEMENT AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS CONTAINED HEREIN AS WELL AS ALL POLICIES AND GUIDELINES INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE. Active Server reserves the right to change or modify any of the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, the Addendum and any policy or guideline incorporated by reference at any time and from time to time in its sole discretion, and to determine whether and when any such changes apply to both existing or future customers. Any changes or modification will be effective upon posting of the revisions on the Active Server Web site (the "Site"). Active Server will post a notice of such changes or modifications to this Agreement or the Addendum on the Site for thirty (30) days. Active Server may post changes or modifications to referenced policies and guidelines without notice to you. Your continued use of the Services following Active Server's posting of any changes or modifications will constitute your acceptance of such changes or modifications. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT (OR THE ADDENDUM IF THEY APPLY TO YOU), DO NOT CLICK THE "I ACCEPT" BUTTON. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THE TERMS OF ANY MODIFICATION, DO NOT CONTINUE TO USE THE SERVICES AND IMMEDIATELY NOTIFY Active Server OF YOUR TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT IN THE MANNER DESCRIBED IN SECTION 1.2 BELOW.

1. Term and Payment for Services


1.1 Term. This Agreement shall be for an "Initial Term" of either (a) thirty (30) days if you register for Shared Hosting Services, or (b) twelve (12) months from the order date if you register for Dedicated Hosting Services, or (c) as otherwise chosen by you in the Order Form, located on the Site, at the time you register for the Services. This Agreement will be automatically renewed (the "Renewal Term") at the end of the Initial Term for the same period as the Initial Term unless you provide Active Server with notice of termination either (a) at least seven (7) days prior to the end of the Initial Term or the Renewal Term, whichever is then applicable, if you registered for and are receiving Shared Hosting Services or (b) at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the Initial Term or Renewal Term, whichever is then applicable, if you registered for and are receiving Dedicated Hosting Services or are have pre-paid for a one year period of Shared Hosting Services. You must provide Active Server with your notice of termination by email. Upon receipt of your request, you will be asked to provide Active Server with sufficient customer identification information so that Active Server may properly identify you and your account. Any notice of termination will be effective upon Active Server's receipt thereof.

1.2 Termination Policy. If you terminate your receipt of the Services prior to the end of the Initial Term or the Renewal Term, whichever is then applicable, (a) Active Server shall not refund to you any fees paid in advance of such termination and (b) you shall be required to pay the lesser of three (3) times the standard monthly charge or 100% of Active Server's standard monthly charge for each month remaining in the term, unless otherwise expressly provided herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you have pre-paid for Shared Hosting Services, you are not entitled to a refund of the remaining months in the annual period. Your termination request must be submitted to Active Server in the manner described in Section 1.1. Active Server may terminate this Agreement at any time and for any reason. If Active Server terminates this Agreement, Active Server shall refund to you the pro-rata portion of pre-paid fees attributable to Services not yet rendered as of the termination date unless otherwise expressly provided herein. Any refunds will be processed using the original medium used for the original transaction. Active Server reserves the right to choose an alternate refund medium at their sole discretion.

1.3 Liability and Obligations on Termination. Should the Agreement expire or be terminated for any reason, Active Server will not be liable to you because of such expiration or termination for compensation, reimbursement or damages on account of the loss of prospective profits, anticipated sales, goodwill or on account of expenditures, investments, leases or commitments in connection with your business, or for any other reason whatsoever flowing from such termination or expiration. Any termination of this Agreement shall not relieve you of any obligations to pay fees and costs accrued prior to the termination date and any other amounts owed by you to Active Server as provided in this Agreement. Any refunds due to you will be submitted in a timely manner. Any refunds processed through a credit card merchant such as PaySystems.com or Authorize.net will be submitted in a timely manner but it is then the responsibility of the credit card merchant to process said refund in a timely manner. Any delays or issues regarding an already submitted refund must be addressed with the credit card merchant. Active Server Hosting, Inc makes no warranties with the regards to the time it takes a refund to be processed by a 3rd party credit card merchant once Active Server Hosting, Inc. has submitted said refund.

1.4 Charges. You agree to pay for all charges attributable to your use of the Services at the then current Active Server prices, which shall be exclusive of any applicable taxes. You shall be responsible for the payment of all federal, state, and local sales, use, value added, excise, duty and any other taxes assessed with respect to the Services, other than taxes based on Active Server's net income.

1.5 Payment. All charges for Services must be paid in advance according to the then current price applicable to the Services. Upon registration for Dedicated Hosting Services, you must choose to pay for the Services either by credit card or upon your receipt of an invoice. If you register for Shared Hosting Services, you must pay for the Services by credit card. If you choose to pay by credit card upon registering for Dedicated Hosting Services or if you register for Shared Hosting Services, you thereby authorize Active Server to charge your credit or debit card to pay for any charges that may apply to your account. You agree that Active Server may accumulate any supplemental charges, as described in the Order Form, incurred by you in your use of the Services ("Supplemental Charges") until such charges exceed $20 and then charge your card. You must notify Active Server of any changes to your card account (including, without limitation, applicable account number or cancellation or expiration of the account), your billing address, or any information that may prohibit Active Server from charging your account. If you choose to be invoiced upon registration for Dedicated Hosting Services, Active Server will send an invoice to you for the Services applicable to the period for which you have registered for the Services. Active Server may also send periodic invoices to you for any applicable Supplemental Charges associated with your use of the Services. You agree to pay to Active Server the amount indicated in each invoice by the due date reflected on the invoice. If you fail to pay any fees and taxes within ten (10) days from applicable due date for credit card or invoice payments, late charges of the lesser of one and one-half per cent (1.5%) per month or the maximum allowable under applicable law shall also become payable by you to Active Server. In addition, your failure to fully pay any fees and taxes within ten (10) days after the applicable due date will be deemed a material breach of this Agreement, justifying Active Server's suspension of its performance of the Services and/or termination of this Agreement. You are responsible for any fees associated with reinstated of Services. Any such termination would not relieve you from paying past due fees plus interest. In the event of collection enforcement, you will be liable for any costs associated with such collection, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs and collection agency fees.

1.6 30 Day Guarantee. Notwithstanding Sections 1.1 through 1.4, if you are not fully satisfied with the Shared Hosting Services, you may terminate this Agreement at any time during the first thirty (30) days from your initial order date and receive a full refund of all payments made by you to Active Server for the Shared Hosting Services. To receive such refund, you must terminate this Agreement in the manner described in Section 1.1 and cease using the Services, and Active Server must receive your termination notice, within the above described thirty (30) day period. You agree to provide Active Server with a description of why you are not satisfied with the Services and are terminating this Agreement.

Active Server will make no effort to validate any of this information for content, correctness or usability. In the event that your material is not "server-ready", Active Server has the option at any time to reject this material. Active Server will notify you of its refusal of the material and afford you the opportunity to amend or modify the material to satisfy the needs and/or requirements of Active Server. Use of the Services requires a certain level of knowledge in the use of Internet languages, protocols and software. This level of knowledge varies depending on the anticipated use and desired content of your Web site. You must have the necessary knowledge to create and maintain a Web site. It is not Active Server's responsibility to provide this knowledge or customer support outside of the Services agreed to by you and Active Server.

In the event that Active Server elects to take any corrective action, you will not be entitled to a refund of any unused pre-paid fees.

You agree to promptly reimburse Active Server for any fees paid by Active Server to Network Solutions or other registration services with respect to the registration and maintenance of such domain name(s). In the event of any dispute or cause of action arising out of or related to your domain name used in connection with the Services, upon your request Active Server will attempt to register with Network Solutions or other registrar an alternative domain name chosen by you. You agree to be bound by the terms of Network Solutions' then current domain name policy and/or the policies of the national DNS registration authorities to which you become subject upon registration of your domain name. The inability to use a domain name shall not entitle you to a refund by Active Server of any fees paid with respect to the registration of such unusable domain name. In the event you received a "Free Domain Name Registration" offer when you signed up for the Services, and you terminate the Services within one year of such domain name registration, you agree to immediately pay Active Server the full retail price for such domain name registration in effect when you registered such domain name, in addition to any other fees for early termination described herein.

If you have registered for Co-Location Services, Active Server's provision of such services is subject to, in addition to the terms of this Agreement, the terms and conditions set forth in Addendum A to this Agreement. If you did not register for Co-Location Services, however, Addendum A is inapplicable to your receipt of the Services.

Active Server shall not be held responsible for any modifications or requests for modifications from an entity acting as an Agent on your behalf or any consequences resulting from said modifications.
