Terms and Conditions of Use
This is a service agreement ("Agreement") for web site hosting service ("Service") between you, the subscriber, and Digital Image DelightsTM ("DID"). If there is any inconsistency between this agreement and laws, statutes, regulations or tariffs in effect now or in the future, such will amend this Agreement. ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT IS REQUIRED FOR SERVICE. 1. Service. Service is subject to limitations caused by the telecommunications infrastructure, atmospheric or technical conditions and may be temporarily unavailable, limited, interrupted or curtailed as necessary or appropriate for the proper operation of the Service or for other business purposes. The Internet uses the telecommunications infrastructure to transmit voice and data and cannot be guaranteed to be private. 2. Use. You agree to use the Service in accordance to our Acceptable Use Policy as posted at http://www.digitalimagedelights.com/aup/. Resale of the Service is subject to separate contractual agreements with DID. You are responsible for maintaining your computer system and ensuring that it is technically and operationally compatible with our service. You have no ownership rights to your domain name or the IP address assigned to your domain name. It is your responsibility to maintain your domain name agreement with the appropriate domain name registration service unless it is in agreement to have DID maintain it for you. 3. Term. The term of the Agreement begins on the date of the acceptance of the Service application. Your service term, rates, and other service components are based on your selection of service plans available at the time and date of Service application and will become part of this Agreement. The annual service plan ("Annual Plan") lasts year to year until terminated by either you or us upon 30 days written notice. You are provided a special rate or other benefit in exchange for your agreement to subscribe for a Fixed Term. If you terminate this Agreement prior to the end of the Annual Term you will be material breach of the Agreement. You agree our damages will be difficult or impossible to determine, and agree to pay us, in addition to all other amounts then owing, a cancellation fee in the amount of fifty percent (50%) of the Annual Term charge. The cancellation fee is liquidated damages to compensate us for, among things, our lost revenues, and our costs for providing rate benefits and/or other services to you in exchange and reliance upon your commitment to subscribe to Service for the Annual Term. You agree that the cancellation fee is a reasonable estimate of our damages. Upon termination, Digital Image Delights may elect to prorate a refund to you, but is under no obligation to do so. 4.
