1. Term and Payment for Services

1.1 Term. The Services provided pursuant to this Agreement are provided on a month to month basis. Either party may at any time terminate this Agreement upon 30 days notice. You must provide WEBCORE LABS with your notice of termination by clicking on the "Cancel Service" button located on the Site. Upon clicking on the "Cancel Service" button, you will be asked to provide WEBCORE LABS with sufficient customer identification information so that WEBCORE LABS may properly identify you and your account. Any notice of termination will be effective 30 days following WEBCORE LABS' receipt thereof. Notice on the part of WEBCORE LABS shall be provided by way of an email from WEBCORE LABS to the email address, you specify when first ordering the Services.

1.2 Termination Policy. If you terminate Services prior to the end of a calendar month, (a) WEBCORE LABS shall not refund to you any fees paid in advance of such termination. If WEBCORE LABS terminates this Agreement, WEBCORE LABS 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.

1.3 Liability and Obligations on Termination. Should the Agreement expire or be terminated for any reason, WEBCORE LABS 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. WEBCORE LABS shall have no responsibility to notify any third party of the termination of your account nor provide any termination assistance. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, WEBCORE LABS shall have no obligation to forward any email messages, data, information or other content related to your use of the Services, and you acknowledge that all such email messages, data, information and content may be immediately deleted by WEBCORE LABS.

1.4 Charges. You agree to pay all fees and charges (and applicable taxes) incurred which relate to your use of the Services, in accordance with the rates, terms and conditions established from time to time by WEBCORE LABS that are applicable to the Services which you have selected. Such rates, terms and conditions will be posted on the Site or otherwise made available to you by WEBCORE LABS. WEBCORE LABS shall begin charging you on the date that you subscribe for the WEBCORE LABS Internet services, unless otherwise specified by WEBCORE LABS. All prices on the Site are net of tax and you shall be responsible for the payment of all federal, provincial, and local sales, use, value added, excise, duty and any other taxes assessed with respect to the Services, other than taxes based on WEBCORE LABS' net income.

1.5 Payment. All charges for Services must be paid in advance according to the then current price applicable to the Services. When ordering the Services through the online process at the Site, you must elect to pay for the Services by credit card. WEBCORE LABS reserves the right to modify the forms of payment it will accept, at any time, in its sole discretion.

1.6 Credit Card Payment. When you pay by credit card when ordering the Services, you expressly authorize WEBCORE LABS or its agents to charge all fees and charges incurred by you under this Agreement to such card, and such authorization will survive termination of this Agreement until there are no charges owing by you under this Agreement. If you use a credit card and WEBCORE LABS does not receive payment from the card issuer, you agree to pay all amounts due, upon demand by WEBCORE LABS. You must notify WEBCORE LABS 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 WEBCORE LABS from charging your account.

1.7 Failure to Pay. 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 (i.e. 18% per annum) or the maximum allowable under applicable law shall also become payable by you to WEBCORE LABS. 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 WEBCORE LABS' immediate 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, legal fees, court costs and collection agency fees.

2. Use of Services

2.1 Responsibility for Use. You are responsible for use of the Services and the maintenance of all passwords related to the Services. You are solely responsible and liable for any and all activities that occur in respect of your use of the Services, including without limitation all activities of any users authorized by you or using your passwords. You are also responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of all passwords related to your use of the Services. You agree to immediately notify WEBCORE LABS of any unauthorized use of the Services or your passwords or of any other breach of security and to provide assistance to WEBCORE LABS, as requested, to stop and/or remedy any breach of security.

2.2 Applicable Policies. The WEBCORE LABS Shared Hosting Usage Policy (the "Usage Policy") governs the general policies and procedures for use of the Services. The WEBCORE LABS Privacy Commitment describes how WEBCORE LABS collects, stores, processes and uses information associated with your use of the Services. You hereby consent to the collection, use and disclosure by WEBCORE LABS and its agents of your personal information (whether previously collected or to be collected) for the purposes identified in the WEBCORE LABS Privacy Commitment. The Usage Policy and the WEBCORE LABS Privacy Commitment are posted on the Site at (or such other location as WEBCORE LABS may specify) and may be updated from time-to-time. YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY READ THE USAGE GUIDELINES. BY USING THE SERVICES, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THE USAGE GUIDELINES AND ANY MODIFICATIONS THERETO. WEBCORE LABS RESERVES THE RIGHT TO TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT FOR ANY VIOLATION OF THE USAGE POLICY OR THIS AGREEMENT.

2.3 Material and Product Requirements. You must ensure that all material and data placed on WEBCORE LABS' equipment is in a condition that is "server-ready," which is in a form requiring no additional manipulation by WEBCORE LABS. WEBCORE LABS 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", WEBCORE LABS has the option at any time to reject this material. WEBCORE LABS 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 WEBCORE LABS. 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 WEBCORE LABS' responsibility to provide this knowledge or customer support.

2.4 Bandwidth, Storage, and E-Mail Usage. You agree that use of the Services hereunder will not exceed the bandwidth, storage and E-mail usage limits set out in the Site for the Services ordered by you . If you use any bandwidth or storage space in excess of the agreed upon number of megabytes per month or if you exceed E-Mail storage and attachment size limitations, WEBCORE LABS may, in its sole discretion, assess you with additional charges according to WEBCORE LABS' then current pricing policy, suspend the performance of the Service, or terminate this Agreement. In the event that WEBCORE LABS elects to take any corrective action, you will not be entitled to a refund of any unused pre-paid fees. Warning messages will be emailed to you as you exceed 80% and 90% of your package's respective bandwidth and disk space limits. If payment for extra usage is not received within two weeks of the invoice date, the expiry date of the account will be adjusted according to the amount outstanding.

2.5 Domain Names. As part of the Services, you will provide WEBCORE LABS with a registered domain name or names or WEBCORE LABS will register such domain name(s) selected by you, provided that such domain name is available for registration and does not violate any registration services' policies, or any law or regulation. You agree to promptly reimburse WEBCORE LABS for any fees paid by WEBCORE LABS to a registrar or another 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 WEBCORE LABS will attempt to register an alternative domain name chosen by you. You agree to be bound by the terms of the registrar then current domain name policy and/or the policies of the national DNS registration authorities to which you become subject upon registration of a domain name. The inability to use a domain name shall not entitle you to a refund by WEBCORE LABS 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 WEBCORE LABS the full retail price for such domain name registration in effect when such domain name was registered, in addition to any other fees for early termination described herein. There is no charge for indefinite parking of domains on WEBCORE LABS servers or to transfer to another service provider. However, in the event a domain that was registered is transferred to another service provider, and requires manual intervention by our support staff to complete the transfer, there will be an administrative transfer cost charged for each domain plus applicable taxes. Domain name payments are non-refundable. Once a domain name is registered, the WHOIS database stores the information and is kept there for a period of one year, until the date of renewal. Payment will NOT be credited back. In the event there is a misspelling of a domain name, while being registered online, you as the customer must register the correct spelling of that name. There are NO refunds issued for misspelled domain names.

2.6 Miscellaneous Components. You acknowledge that the Services do not include content design, development, FTP maintenance, uploading and publishing, Common Gateway Interface scripts and other such executables and that all of the foregoing are your responsibilities.
