BY THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND ALL TERMS AND CONDITIONS INCORPORATED
BY REFERENCE IN THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING 1site.net'S USAGE POLICY.
YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES CONSTITUTES ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT.
1site.net reserves the right to reject this Agreement for any
reason or no reason, prior to acceptance thereof by 1site.net.
Activation of the Services shall indicate 1site.net's acceptance
of this Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, 1site.net will provide to Customer the Services selected
by Customer set forth on the Order Form.
1. Usage Policy
Under this Agreement, Customer shall comply with 1site.net's then
current "Usage Policy", as amended, modified or updated
from time to time by 1site.net, which currently can be viewed
at http://www.1site.net.com/partner/company/legal/legal_usage.html,
and which is incorporated in this Agreement by reference. Customer
hereby acknowledges that it has reviewed the Usage Policy and
that the terms of the Usage Policy are incorporated herein by
reference. In the event of any inconsistencies between this Agreement
and the Usage Policy, the terms of the Usage Policy shall govern.
1site.net does not intend to systematically monitor the content
which is submitted to, stored on or distributed or disseminated
by Customer via the Service (the "Customer Content").
Customer Content includes content of Customer's customers and/or
users of Customer's website. Accordingly, under this Agreement,
you will be responsible for your customers content and activities
on your website. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in this Agreement, 1site.net may immediately take corrective action,
including removal of all or a portion of the Customer Content,
disconnection or discontinuance of any and all Services, or termination
of this Agreement in the event of notice of possible violation
by Customer of the Usage Policy. In the event 1site.net takes
corrective action due to a violation of the Usage Policy, 1site.net
shall not refund to Customer any fees paid in advance of such
corrective action. Customer hereby agrees that 1site.net shall
have no liability to Customer or any of Customer's customers due
to any corrective action that 1site.net may take (including, without
limitation, disconnection of Services).
2. Amendment
1site.net may amend, modify or update this Agreement or the Usage
Policy at any time in its sole discretion, and Customer shall
be bound by any such amendment, modification or update. 1site.net
may, but is under no obligation to, provide notice of any amendment,
modification or update of this Agreement or the Usage Policy.
Any modification is effective on the earlier of two days after
posting on 1site.net's website or two days after the sending of
a notice by 1site.net to Customer by e-mail or conventional mail.
If any material modification to this Agreement or the Usage Policy
is unacceptable to you, you may terminate your subscription as
provided in Section 3. However, if you do not terminate the Agreement,
or if you continue to use the Services following effectiveness
of the modification, your continued use will mean that you have
accepted that modification. 1site.net reserves the right to amend
its service offerings and add, delete, suspend or modify the terms
and conditions of the Services, at any time and from time to time,
and to determine whether and when any such changes apply to both
existing and future customers.
3. Term; Termination; Cancellation Policy
The initial term of this Agreement shall be as set forth in the
Order Form (the "Initial Term"). The Initial Term shall
begin upon commencement of the Services to Customer. After the
Initial Term, this Agreement shall automatically renew for successive
terms of equal length as the Initial Term, unless terminated or
cancelled by either party as provided in this section. The Initial
Term and all successive renewal periods shall be referred to,
collectively, as the "Term".
This Agreement may be terminated (i) by either party by giving
the other party 30 days prior written notice (subject to an early
cancellation fee as provided below), (ii) by 1site.net in the
event of nonpayment by Customer, (iii) by 1site.net, at any time,
without notice, if, in 1site.net's judgment, Customer is in violation
of any term or condition of the Usage Policy or Customer's use
of the Service disrupts or, in 1site.net's judgment, could disrupt,
1site.net's business operations and (iv) by 1site.net in accordance
with Sections 1, 9, and 10 of this Agreement.
If you cancel this Agreement prior to the end of the Term, (i)
you shall be obligated to pay all fees and charges accrued prior
to the effectiveness of such cancellation, (ii) 1site.net shall
refund to you all pre-paid fees for basic hosting services (shared,
dedicated and/or managed) for the full months remaining after
effectiveness of cancellation (i.e., no partial month fees shall
be refunded), less any setup fees and any discount applied for
prepayment, (iii) you shall be obligated to pay 100% of all charges
for all Services for each month remaining in the Term (other than
basic hosting fees as provided in (ii) above) and (iii) 1site.net
shall have the right to charge you an early cancellation fee of
$25.00. Any cancellation request shall be effective 30 days after
receipt by 1site.net, unless a later date is specified in such
request.
If 1site.net cancels this Agreement prior to the end of the Term,
1site.net shall not refund to you any fees paid in advance of
such cancellation and (i) you shall be obligated to pay all fees
and charges accrued prior to the effectiveness of such cancellation,
(ii) you shall be obligated to pay 100% of all charges for all
Services for each month remaining in the Term and (iii) 1site.net
shall have the right to charge you an early cancellation fee of
$25.00.
4. Billing and Payment
All fees for the Services shall be in accordance with 1site.net's
fee schedule then in effect, the terms of which are incorporated
herein by reference, and shall be due at the times provided therein.
A $15.00 late fee will apply to accounts past due more than ten
(10) calendar days from the due date. 1site.net may, with 30 days
notice to Customer, amend the Services and/or the rates and fees
it charges for the Services. Fees for renewal periods after the
Initial Term shall be due and owing immediately upon the first
day of such renewal period. 1site.net may impose a debt service
charge equal to one and one-half percent (1.5%) of the overdue
balance (or such lesser amount as may be required by law) for
each month or fraction thereof the overdue amount remains unpaid.
In addition, in the event that any amount due 1site.net remains
unpaid twenty (20) days after such payment is due, 1site.net,
in its sole discretion, may immediately terminate this Agreement,
and/or withhold or suspend Services. There will be a $50.00 charge
to reinstate accounts that have been suspended or terminated.
All taxes, fees and governmental charges relating to the Services
provided hereunder (other than income taxes of 1site.net) shall
be paid by Customer.
Customer agrees that 1site.net may pre-charge Customer's fees
for the Services to the credit card supplied by Customer during
registration.
Returned checks will be assessed a $30.00 charge. Wire transfers
will be assessed a $30.00 charge.
5. Special Provisions Applicable to Resellers
1site.net from time to time may offer reseller programs which
will permit Customers to resell certain of 1site.net's products
and services, and be eligible for certain discounts, services
and other promotions. A Customer that participates in a reseller
program is referred to herein as a "Reseller". To be
eligible to participate in a reseller program, the Reseller may
be required to meet certain requirements as provided in such reseller
program. If you are a Reseller, the terms and conditions in this
section (in addition to any terms or conditions contained in the
reseller program) are applicable to you.
As a Reseller, you are 1site.net's Customer. A Reseller shall
be deemed, and is the "Customer" for all purposes under
this Agreement and the Usage Policy. When you resell the Services,
the purchaser of those resold services becomes your customer (a
"Reseller Customer"). A Reseller Customer is not a Customer
of 1site.net, and 1site.net will not support any Reseller Customer.
Reseller shall take all necessary measures to preclude 1site.net
from being made a party to any agreement with any Reseller Customer.
As a Reseller, you are authorized to resell the Services identified
in the applicable reseller program on a non-exclusive basis. 1site.net
reserves the right to market and sell its products and services
through its own employees, other resellers and other representatives
and retailers that may compete with you. The terms and conditions
of such other relationships may differ from the terms of this
Agreement and the reseller program, and may be better. Reseller
shall be responsible for billing, and collecting payments from,
Reseller Customers. Reseller shall not withhold payments to 1site.net
under this Agreement because of a failure of a Reseller Customer
to make payments to Reseller. Reseller may set the prices to be
paid to it by Reseller Customers for any of the resold Services.
Reseller shall provide all support (including, without limitation,
customer support, first level support, second level support, and
other technical support) for Reseller Customers. Reseller shall
pay all sales, use, transfer, privilege, excise or other taxes
and all duties, whether international, state or local, however
designated, which are levied or imposed on 1site.net and Reseller
under this Agreement and any and all transactions between Reseller
and Reseller Customers. Reseller shall not resell the Services
under 1site.net's brand name. Reseller shall be solely responsible
for compliance with any regulations governing the export of the
Services (or any portion thereof). Nothing in this Agreement constitutes
a license to Reseller to use or resell the Marks (as defined below).
6. 1site.net as Reseller or Licensor
1site.net 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-1site.net Product"). 1site.net shall not
be responsible for any changes in the Services that cause the
Non-1site.net Product to become obsolete, require modification
or alteration, or otherwise affect the performance of the Services.
Any malfunction or manufacturer's defects of Non-1site.net Product
either sold, licensed or provided by 1site.net to Customer or
purchased directly by Customer used in connection with the Services
will not be deemed a breach of 1site.net's obligations under this
Agreement. Any rights or remedies Customer may have regarding
the ownership, licensing, performance or compliance of Non-1site.net
Product are limited to those rights extended to Customer by the
manufacturer of such Non-1site.net Product. Customer is entitled
to use any Non-1site.net Product supplied by 1site.net 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 1site.net to Customer through
any Non-1site.net 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-1site.net
Product, or any technical data derived therefrom, in violation
of any applicable United States or foreign law.
7. IP Address Ownership
If 1site.net assigns Customer an Internet Protocol address for
Customer's use, the right to use that Internet Protocol address
shall belong only to 1site.net, and Customer shall have no right
to use that Internet Protocol address except as permitted by 1site.net
in its sole discretion in connection with the Services, during
the term of this Agreement. 1site.net shall maintain and control
ownership of all Internet Protocol numbers and addresses that
may be assigned to Customer by 1site.net, and 1site.net 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 (i) grants to 1site.net a license to cache
the entirety of the Customer Content and Customer's web site,
including content supplied by third parties, hosted by 1site.net
under this Agreement and (ii) agrees that such caching is not
an infringement of any of Customer's intellectual property rights
or any third party's intellectual property rights.
9. CPU Usage
Customer agrees that Customer shall not use excessive amounts
of CPU processing on any of 1site.net's servers. Any violation
of this policy may result in corrective action by 1site.net, including
assessment of additional charges, disconnection or discontinuance
of any and all Services, or termination of this Agreement, which
actions may be taken in 1site.net's sole and absolute discretion.
If 1site.net takes any corrective action under this section, Customer
shall not be entitled to a refund of any fees paid in advance
prior to such action.
10. Bandwidth and Disk Usage
Customer agrees that bandwidth and disk usage shall not exceed
the number of megabytes per month for the Services ordered by
Customer on the Order Form (the "Agreed Usage"). 1site.net
will monitor Customer's bandwidth and disk usage. 1site.net shall
have the right to take corrective action if Customer's bandwidth
or disk usage exceeds the Agreed Usage. Such corrective action
may include the assessment of additional charges, disconnection
or discontinuance of any and all Services, or termination of this
Agreement, which actions may be taken in 1site.net's sole and
absolute discretion. If 1site.net takes any corrective action
under this section, Customer shall not be entitled to a refund
of any fees paid in advance prior to such action.
11. Property Rights
1site.net owns all right, title and interest in and to the Services
and 1site.net's trade names, trademarks, service marks, inventions,
copyrights, trade secrets, patents, know-how and other intellectual
property rights relating to the design, function, marketing, promotion,
sale and provision of the Services and the related hardware, software
and systems ("Marks"). Noting in this Agreement constitutes
a license to Customer to use or resell the Marks.
12. Customer Web Site; E-Commerce; Customer Warranties
Customer shall be solely responsible for the development, operation
and maintenance of Customer's web site, online store and e-commerce
activities, for all products and services offered by Customer
or appearing online and for all contents and materials appearing
online or on Customer's products, including, without limitation
(i) the accuracy and appropriateness of the Customer Content and
content and material appearing in its store or on its products,
(ii) ensuring that the Customer Content and content and materials
appearing in its store or on its products do not violate or infringe
upon the rights of any person, and (iii) ensuring that the Customer
Content and the content and materials appearing in its store or
on its products are not defamatory or otherwise illegal. Customer
shall be solely responsible for accepting, processing and filling
customer orders and for handling customer inquiries or complaints.
Customer shall be solely responsible for the payment or satisfaction
of any and all taxes associated with its web site and online store.
Customer shall be responsible for the security and confidentiality
of any customer information (including, without limitation, customer
credit card numbers) that Customer may receive as a result of
its web site or online store.
Customer represents and warrants to 1site.net that Customer owns
or has the right to use the Customer Content and material contained
therein, including all text, graphics, sound, music, video, programming,
scripts and applets, and the use, reproduction, distribution and
transmission of the Customer Content and any information and materials
contained therein does not, and will not, (i) infringe or misappropriate
any copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret or any other proprietary
right of a third party, (ii) violate any criminal laws or (iii)
constitute false advertising, unfair competition, defamation,
an invasion of privacy, violate a right of publicity or violate
any other law or regulation. Customer grants 1site.net the right
to reproduce, copy, use and distribute all and any portion of
the Customer Content to the extent needed to provide and operate
the Services.
13. Disclaimer of Warranty
Customer agrees to use all Services and any information obtained
through or from 1site.net, at Customer's own risk. Customer acknowledges
and agrees that 1site.net exercises no control over, and accepts
no responsibility for, the content of the information passing
through 1site.net's host computers, network hubs and points of
presence or the Internet. THE SERVICES PROVIDED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT
ARE PROVIDED ON AN AS IS, AS AVAILABLE BASIS. NONE OF 1site.net,
ITS PARENT, SUBSIDIARY OR AFFILIATED CORPORATIONS, OR ANY OF THEIR
RESPECTIVE EMPLOYEES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, SHAREHOLDERS, AFFILIATES,
AGENTS, SUPPLIERS, THIRD-PARTY INFORMATION PROVIDERS, MERCHANTS,
LICENSORS OR THE LIKE (EACH, AN "1site.net PERSON")
MAKE ANY WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED,
INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT, FOR THE
SERVICES OR ANY EQUIPMENT 1site.net PROVIDES. NO 1site.net PERSON
MAKES ANY WARRANTIES THAT THE SERVICES WILL NOT BE INTERRUPTED
OR ERROR FREE; NOR DO ANY OF THEM MAKE ANY WARRANTIES AS TO THE
RESULTS THAT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE USE OF THE SERVICES OR AS
TO THE ACCURACY, RELIABILITY OR CONTENT OF ANY INFORMATION, SERVICES
OR MERCHANDISE CONTAINED IN OR PROVIDED THROUGH THE SERVICES.
1site.net IS NOT LIABLE, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY LIABILITY,
FOR THE CONTENT OF ANY DATA TRANSFERRED EITHER TO OR FROM CUSTOMER
OR STORED BY CUSTOMER OR ANY OF CUSTOMER'S CUSTOMERS VIA THE SERVICES
PROVIDED BY 1site.net. NO ORAL ADVICE OR WRITTEN INFORMATION GIVEN
BY ANY 1site.net PERSON, WILL CREATE A WARRANTY; NOR MAY YOU RELY
ON ANY SUCH INFORMATION OR ADVICE. The terms of this section shall
survive any termination of this Agreement.
14. Indemnification
Customer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless 1site.net
and its parent, subsidiary and affiliated companies, and each
of their respective officers, directors, employees, shareholders
and agents (each an "indemnified party" and, collectively,
"indemnified parties") from and against any and all
claims, damages, losses, liabilities, suits, actions, demands,
proceedings (whether legal or administrative), and expenses (including,
but not limited to, reasonable attorney's fees) threatened, asserted,
or filed by a third party against any of the indemnified parties
arising out of or relating to (i) Customer's use of the Services,
(ii) any violation by Customer of the Usage Policy, (iii) any
breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of Customer
contained in this Agreement or (iv) any acts or omissions of Customer.
The terms of this section shall survive any termination of this
Agreement.
15. Limitation of Liability
Customer agrees that no 1site.net Person, under any circumstances,
shall be held responsible or liable for situations where the Services
are accessed by third parties through illegal or illicit means,
including situations where such data is accessed through the exploitation
of security gaps, weaknesses or flaws (whether known or unknown
to 1site.net at the time) which may exist in the Services or 1site.net's
equipment used to provide the Services.
Under no circumstances, including negligence, shall any 1site.net
Person 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 1site.net has
been advised of the possibility of such damages. No 1site.net
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 or not limited to acts of God,
communications failure, theft, destruction or unauthorized access
to 1site.net's records, programs, equipment or services.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, 1site.net's
maximum liability under this Agreement for all damages, losses,
costs and causes of actions from any and all claims (whether in

Customer for the Services which gave rise to such damages, losses
and causes of actions during the 12-month period prior to the
date the damage or loss occurred or the cause of action arose.
Customer understands, acknowledges and agrees that if 1site.net
takes any corrective action under this Agreement because of an
action of Customer or one if its customer or a Reseller Customer,
that corrective action may adversely affect other customers of
Customer or other Reseller Customers, and Customer agrees that
1site.net shall have no liability to Customer, any of its customers
or any Reseller Customer due to such corrective action by 1site.net.
This limitation of liability reflects an informed, voluntary
allocation between the parties of the risks (known and unknown)
that may exist in connection with this Agreement. The terms of
this section shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
16. Force Majeure
1site.net shall not be liable for failure or delay in performing

delay in telecommunications or third party services (including

dispute. The parties hereby waive all in personam jurisdictional
defenses in connection with any arbitration hereunder or the enforcement
of an order or award rendered pursuant thereto. In any legal action,
the prevailing party will be entitled to recover all legal expenses
incurred in connection with the action, including but not limited
to its costs, both taxable and non-taxable, and reasonable attorney's

or agreements specifically identified in this Agreement, represents
the entire agreement between the parties, and supercedes all previous

to be invalid, unenforceable, or void, the remainder of this Agreement
shall remain in full force and effect.
Customer hereby represents that he, she or it is either, an individual
