ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS

dotCOM host provides its service to you, subject to the following Terms of Service ("TOS"), which may be updated by us from time to time without notice to you.  You can review the most current version of the TOS at any time at this link.  In addition, when using particular dotCOM host services, you and dotCOM host shall be subject to any posted guidelines or rules applicable to such services which may be posted from time to time. All such guidelines or rules are hereby incorporated by reference into the TOS.

DESCRIPTION OF SERVICE

You understand and agree that the Service is provided "AS-IS" and that dotCOM host assumes no responsibility for the timeliness, deletion, mis-delivery or failure to store any user communications or personalization settings.

In order to use the Service, you must obtain access to the World Wide Web, either directly or through devices that access web-based content, and pay any service fees associated with such access. In addition, you must provide all equipment necessary to make such connection to the World Wide Web, including a computer and modem or other access device. dotCOM host may host client web sites that contain adult or mature content. You must be at least 18 years of age to access and view such areas or of the legal age as set by your local jurisdiction, which ever age is greater.

dotCOM host typically performs maintenance to the equipment and software responsible for our Services between 1:00 and 5:00 AM PST, and when necessary because of emergency situations, on an as-needed unscheduled basis.  All reasonable efforts are made to require no interruption in Service while maintenance is performed but when such interruptions are necessary, the duration is kept to a minimum whenever possible.

YOUR REGISTRATION OBLIGATIONS

In consideration of your use of the Service, you certify that:

1. you will provide true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself as prompted by the Service's registration form (such information being the "Registration Data")
2. you will maintain and promptly update the Registration Data to keep it true, accurate, current and complete
3. you are not currently under the employ, contract or control, or otherwise represent the interests of, an entity who offers competing or similar services to dotCOM host, including, but not limited to, the hosting of websites, shopping carts and mailing lists.

If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, or dotCOM host has reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, dotCOM host has the right to suspend or terminate your account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Service (or any portion thereof).  dotCOM host maintains the right to seek legal remedy against those who knowingly misrepresent themselves in violation these aforementioned requirements.

ACCOUNT PAYMENT

You agree that for billing purposes dotCOM host may automatically bill your credit card for recurring hosting charges.  Your billing period establishes the length of your service agreement, the minimum period is one month; charges are billed at the beginning of the service period and then are recurring beginning on the first day of the following month. dotCOM host will continue billing you for the Service until cancellation is requested by the account holder.  dotCOM host requires a 30-day notice to be given by email sent to billing@dotcomhost.com or a support ticket created at https://www.dotcomhost.com/support to cancel the account and terminate the hosting agreement. Account must be paid in full before it may be cancelled. Ceasing your use of the Service is not an acceptable notification of cancellation.  dotCOM host may request additional information in order to verify the authenticity of any account changes.  Any outstanding balances on the account must be cleared before the account is closed. New billing information may be submitted at any time at the following URL: https://www.dotcomhost.com/ccupdate

dotCOM host may, at its discretion, suspend hosting accounts within five days of a declined charge or past-due check payment. This grace period may be eliminated if multiple payments by Customer are made past-due in any twelve-month period and the Service will be subject to immediate shutdown at the discretion of dotCOM host.

Domain names or SSL secure certificates registered through the dotCOM host service will not be renewed automatically without the prior written permission of the account holder. All domain and SSL secure certificate registrations must be paid in full before registration and are not refundable once the domain or certificate has been renewed/registered.

Payments for items like SSL certificates and 3rd party software licenses are 100% non-refundable. dotCOM host has no control over SSL issuers and their billing policies, or software license providers and their billing policies, and in most cases we cannot obtain refunds for these items after the charges have already gone through. It is imperative that any cancellations of these services be made prior to the following billing cycle, so that dotCOM host has adequate time to cancel any services or license keys on your behalf and ensure neither you, nor dotCOM host, incur charges for such license fees or SSL certificates.

In the event of billing dispute whereas a client initiates chargeback through their credit card issuing company, dotCOM host reserves the right to recover the entire chargeback fee assessed to dotCOM host, in the amount of $35.00 per occurence or incident.

dotCOM host PRIVACY POLICY

dotCOM host does not resell or use your Registration Data for marketing purposes.  All credit card information is encrypted with strong SSL and all methods to retrieve your order information are encrypted.  dotCOM host may contact the account contact for notices regarding service changes or activities effecting the account.

All commercial non-transactional mailing will include a working opt-out mechanism and opt-out requests will be honored within ten business days. All other additional CAN-SPAM regulations must be met for mailings.

SPAM BLOCKING

dotCOM host reserves the right to block certain IPs, email addresses, domains, or networks that are deemed to have excessive spam originating from them.  dotCOM host uses a number of criteria to determine whether an IP address, email addresses, domain name or network can or should be blocked - from automated tracking of the volume of spam originating from these locations, to a large number of requests from our hosting clients who recommend and/or request that all email/spam be completely blocked.  When it's deemed an IP address, email addresses, domain or a network is a nuisance and a source of spam, dotCOM host may block it without notice to protect the majority of our hosting clients from receiving spam from these locations.

Clients who wish to have unfiltered email service as well as remove any other firewall blocking - contact sales @ dotcomhost.com for special hosting package configuration.

Clients who engage in sending mass mailings and who are reported to us as the source of "spam" agree to cover administrative fee of $5.00 per each offending unsolicited (spam) message.  A proof of legitimate opt-in may waive this fee.  Repeated complaints about unsolicited spam email originating from any of dotCOM host's servers may result in termination of your hosting account without advance notice.

MODIFICATIONS TO SERVICE

dotCOM host reserves the right at any time and from time to time to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Service (or any part thereof) with or without notice. You agree that dotCOM host shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension or discontinuance of the Service.

TERMINATION

You agree that dotCOM host in its sole discretion, may terminate your password, account (or any part thereof) or use of the Service, and remove and discard any Content within the Service, for any "just reason", including, without limitation, for lack of use or if dotCOM host believes that you have violated or acted inconsistently with the letter or spirit of the TOS. dotCOM host may also in its sole discretion and at any time discontinue providing the Service, or any part thereof, with or without notice, when the account owner is deemed to have violated US Federal or California State laws.  In cases where account termination is mutually agreed upon with the client (not including cases of violation of US Federal or California State laws) dotCOM host will provide a two (2) weeks notice to the client to close and then terminate the account at the end of the second week since notice was issued.
