As consideration for the Services, renewal of the Services, and, if you choose the option, automatic renewal of the Services, you agree to pay, prior to the provision or renewal of the desired Services, the applicable fees ("Fees") as posted on the Site at the time (including but not limited to any fees required by 3rd parties such as ICANN or tax authorities). Fees are non-refundable, in whole or in part, once the Services have been provisioned unless this Agreement or another Agreement with us explicitly provides for a refund, even if your Services are suspended, terminated, or transferred prior to the end of the Services term.

5. Payment Methods

We accept multiple payment methods to pay for the Fees of the Services as a convenience to you including major credit cards, bank check, bank transfer, wire transfer, and Paypal. We reserve the right to restrict your use of any or all payment methods on your Account at our sole discretion.

We may, at any time prior to or after the Services are provided, require additional documentation to verify your payment method, identity, and/or Account prior to the provisioning of the Services including, but not limited to, requesting copies of government-issued personal identification cards, letters of authority from your company, payment authorization and verification forms, or any other information we deem appropriate to verify your payment method, identity, and/or Account. If we are unable to verify your payment method and/or Account to our satisfaction, we reserve the right to deny, cancel, or terminate the Services, your Account, and this Agreement.

6. Chargebacks and Disputes

If you have an issue with a charge or payment to us, you should contact us first for clarification of the charge before you contact your credit card company to request a dispute or reversal of the charge.

In the event a chargeback is initiated by you and/or your credit card company (or a similar action is initiated by you or another payment provider accepted by us) in connection with your payment of Fees for any Services, you agree and acknowledge that we may immediately suspend access to any and all of your Accounts with us and our subsidiaries and affiliates and that all rights to, and interest in, and use of, any Services shall be assumed by us. We may reinstate your rights and access to the Services at our sole discretion, subject to our receipt of the disputed Fees including a minimum fee of $40.00 for each disputed transaction. In addition, you agree to pay a reinstatement and administrative fee of $200.00 (US Dollars) if reinstatement of your Account and the Services is granted.

We reserve the right to require modification of the terms and conditions of any Agreements at our sole discretion as a condition of reinstatement of your Services and Account with us.

7. Renewal and Expiration of Services

You acknowledge that, even though we may provide an auto-renewal service for your convenience, it is your sole responsibility to keep your own records and to maintain your own reminders regarding when your Services are set to expire, including any services provided for under the Domain Name Registration Agreement or any other agreement with us, to ensure that your Renewal Fees are paid for the Services prior to the due date.

As a convenience to you, and not as a binding agreement, we may notify you via the primary email address provided in your Account, or from the control panel in your Account, when Fees for renewal of the Services are due ("Renewal Fees"). Renewal Fees are available in your Account at any time prior to the due date of the Renewal Fees. It is your responsibility to ensure that the Renewal Fees are paid in advance of the due date to prevent an interruption in Services or additional fees to restore the Services.

Additional terms and conditions regarding the renewal and expiration of individual Services may apply, including but not limited to domain name registration services, email services, trustee services, hosting services etc. In this regard, we refer you to your agreement with us relating to any such Service.

Additionally, you acknowledge that payment of certain services, specifically, but not limited to, services provided for under the Domain Name Registration Agreement, that is made by you exactly on the due date may also incur additional fees to restore the domain name, suspension, loss, cancellation, or deletion of the domain name.

Renewal Fees collected due to your failure to cancel auto-renewal of the Services prior to the auto-renewal of your Services are non-refundable.

Should Renewal Fees go unpaid and become overdue, your Services will expire and will be terminated accordingly. We are not responsible for the loss of data, suspension, or termination of Services as a result of your failure to pay the Renewal Fees by the due date.

We are not liable for your failure to pay the Renewal Fees prior to the due date specified by us.

8. Auto-Renewal

We provide an auto-renewal service to our customers in order to assist you in ensuring the Services remain uninterrupted. Accounts will have auto-renew initially enabled to prevent any unwanted expirations, and can be maintained or disabled in your client account. If auto-renewal of the Services is enabled, we will attempt to renew the Services up to 60 days prior to the due date, provided that we are able to charge one or more of the payment methods listed in your Account. You acknowledge that it is your responsibility to keep your payment methods current and up to date with available funds in order to process your auto-renewals. You acknowledge that we may use credit card updating services to keep your payment method up to date, and that we may, but are not required to, contact you to update this information as well in the event that an auto-renewal attempt is declined by the payment method issuer.

We require you to specify one payment method as the default payment method for auto-renewal of the Services ("Default Payment Method"). The system will attempt to charge the Default Payment Method for the auto-renewal up to 60 days prior to the due date. If the charge fails, you may be notified by email of the failed attempt as a courtesy. We may, at our discretion, attempt to update the payment method on file with a credit card updating service or by using another payment method provided in your Account, or may attempt to contact you for an updated and valid payment method.

You acknowledge that, even though we may provide an auto-renewal service to you for your convenience, it is your sole responsibility to keep your own records and to maintain your own reminders regarding when your Services are set to expire to ensure that your Renewal Fees are paid for your Services prior to the due date, including any services provided for under the Domain Name Registration Agreement or any other agreement with us. We are in no way liable or responsible for failure of the auto-renewal service to pay your Renewal Fees to renew the Services prior to the due date.

9. Refunds, Account Credit, and Prepayments

In the event that the Services have been paid for and cannot be provided, we may either, at our sole and absolute discretion, (a) issue a refund to the original payment method used by you to purchase the Services, or (b) issue a credit on your Account to be used for the purchase of future services ("Account Credit") on the Site. You may log in to your Account at any time to see a full transaction history of all refunds and Account Credits issued as well as the current Account Credit available to you in your Account.

In the event a refund is issued and the payment provider associated with your original payment method limits our ability to issue a refund, including the passage of time or number of refunds allowed, then we, at our sole and absolute discretion, reserve the right to issue a refund by bank cheque, or issue an Account Credit.

We do not automatically use Account Credit for the payment of Renewal Fees. The auto-renewal feature will not work with Account Credit. If you would like to use your Account Credit to pay for Renewal Fees, you must log in to your Account and pay the Renewal Fees by selecting Account Credit as the payment method when manually processing your renewal payment.

You may prefer to fund your account with a prepayment. You may do so by contacting our support staff. Prepayments are available to use in the same way as Account Credit.

You acknowledge that if you have an outstanding account balance with us for 3 years and your account is dormant during this time, we may attempt to refund your balance by cheque and close your account. We reserve the right to charge a processing fee of up to $50.00 to close your account and process a refund as well as withhold and charge against your account balance the lesser of (a) a dormancy charge of up to $30.00, or (b) the total outstanding account balance.

10. Account Suspension

We reserve the right to suspend, disable, or otherwise terminate your Account and the Services, or take any other measures deemed to be appropriate, at any time and without prior notice, to enforce this Agreement or to ensure the integrity and performance of the Services. We may terminate or suspend the Services at any time, at our sole discretion and without limitation, if it finds that you have violated any terms of this Agreement or other agreements with us. You agree that if we terminate or suspend the Services provided to you under this Agreement, that we may then, at our option, make either ourselves or a third party the beneficiary of Services which are substantially similar to those which were previously provided to you and that any reference in this Agreement to termination or suspension of the Services to you includes this option.

11. Term and Termination

This Agreement shall commence on the first day that your Account is created and shall remain in force continuously and uninterrupted so long as your Account is active.

You may terminate this Agreement at any time. To terminate your Account, you must contact support and request account termination. Upon termination, we shall terminate access to your Account and any Account information provided in connection with the Services immediately. You acknowledge that we are required to retain certain records and information from your Account according to local, state, country, and international laws and will archive the information only as it is legally required to do so for this limited purpose.
