These terms of service (TOS) are entered into between stressdesign d/b/a Alpha Six (Alpha Six, we, us, or our) and the entity purchasing our using services provided by or through Alpha Six (Customer, you, or your). We agree to be bound by this TOS when we process your payment information. You agree to be bound by this TOS when you submit the contact information set out below. This TOS contains provisions that you are required to apply to your customers (End Users). It is your responsibility to ensure that these provisions are included in contracts and other agreements with your End Users. You are responsible for your End Users under this TOS. If you intend to resell the Services, you must also agree to be bound by our Reseller Agreement.

1. Our other agreements are incorporated into the TOS

This TOS incorporates our Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) and Privacy Policy by reference. To the extent that these agreements conflict, this TOS shall prevail, followed by the AUP and Privacy Policy. In certain cases, you may purchase services from us using another agreement which is also incorporated into this TOS. If that agreement conflicts with this TOS, the terms of that agreement will prevail over the TOS, but only to the extent that the agreements conflict. After that, the agreements will have the precedence set out above.

2. Services we provide to you.

The features and details of the Services governed by this TOS are described on the schedule set out at "Alpha Six" for the category of Services you selected ("Product Description Page"). Throughout this TOS, the aspects of the category of Services provided to you by Alpha Six, as set out on the Product Description Page, are referred to together as the "Service."

Alpha Six provides the Service to you based on the description of it on the Product Description Page as of the Effective Date. Should the Product Description Page change subsequent to the Effective Date, Alpha Six has no obligation to modify the Service to reflect such a change.

Certain aspects of the Service may be provided by third parties. These third parties may have reserved the right to make changes, including material changes, to the products provided by them and incorporated into the Service. If a third party makes a change to its products, you may not terminate this TOS based on such a change, even if it materially affects the Service.

3. Contact Information

You are required to provide us with accurate information when setting up your account, during the course of our relationship, and when corresponding with us. On occasion, we may need to communicate with you by e-mail about the Service. You agree to maintain a working e-mail address that is monitored daily. We have no responsibility, or liability, for interruptions in the Service, or damages of any sort, based on communications that are misdirected as a result of your failure to provide us with updated contact information.

The entity set out in our records is considered by us to be our customer. If you are reselling the Service, or are an End User of a reseller, it is your obligation to ensure that our records accurately reflect ownership and control of the Service.

4. Term

The "Effective Date" of this TOS will be the day on which you initially provide the contact information set out above.

This TOS will begin on the Effective Date and continue for the term set out on the Product Description Page (Initial Term). After the expiration of the Initial Term, this TOS will renew for successive periods of equal length (Renewal Term). If the Product Description Page does not contain an Initial Term, the Initial Term shall be one month.

5. Payment

You are responsible for the fees and charges set out on the Product Description Page (Fees). You may be charged 7 days prior to the date set out on the Product Description Page (Due Date).

Our obligation to provide the Service is contingent on your payment of the Fees by the Due Date. You must pay the Fees without set off or deduction. It is your responsibility to ensure that we receive payment of the Fees. Should the Service be suspended, for any reason, Fees will continue to accrue. Set up and domain name registration charges are not refundable for any reason.

If the Fees are not paid by your financial institution on the Due Date, your account will be considered delinquent. To reinstate your account, you will be required to pay, depending on the reason for the delinquency: (i) a returned check fee in the amount of $50; (ii) interest in the amount of 2.0% per month, or the maximum amount allowed by law; (iii) collection charges; (iv) any fees levied on us by our financial institution; and/or (v) an investigation fee of $200.

You may choose to purchase products and services that are not included in the Service but which are offered for sale by other parties through Alpha Six (Third Party Services). Third Party Services may be billed separately from the Service. Fees for the Third Party Services may not be billed on the month on which they are delivered. You agree to pay for these Third Party Services regardless of the length of time elapsed between their delivery date and the date on which you are charged.

6. Bill disputes

If you believe there is an error on your bill you must contact us in writing. We each agree to work together in good faith to resolve any billing disputes. Your dispute must include sufficient facts for us to investigate your claims and be received by us at least 5 days prior to the Due Date (Dispute Deadline). You waive your right to dispute any charges or Fees if you fail to meet Dispute Deadline. If we find that your claim is valid, we agree to credit the account that is the subject of the dispute on your next bill. If you contact your credit card company, prior to notifying us of the dispute, and initiate a "charge back" based on this dispute, and your charge back claim is past the Dispute Deadline, you will be charged a $200 investigation fee. This fee compensates us for the investigation your credit card issuer requires us to conduct in order to demonstrate our right to payment.

7. Termination

7.1. Money Back Guarantee.

The Service carries an unconditional 30 day satisfaction guarantee (Guarantee). To cancel the qualifying Service and receive a refund, contact us within the first 30 days of the Effective Date for the particular Service. If you wish to retain your domain name, the cost of your domain name will be deducted from your refund at our regular, non-discounted, domain name price. If you paid us by credit card we will credit the card on file, otherwise we will send you a check.

The Guarantee only applies to an individual Service for 30 calendar days following the Effective Date. If you purchase more than one Service from us, the Guarantee only applies to the Service that falls within this 30 day period.

7.2. Termination for convenience

Either party may terminate the Service by providing written notice to the other no later than 10 days before the expiration of the Initial Term or Renewal Term for that particular Service.

7.3. Termination for material breach

One party may terminate this TOS upon the occurrence of a material breach, if this breach has not been cured by the other party within 30 days of their receipt of written notice of the breach. A material breach shall be determined from the perspective of a reasonable business person with significant experience conducting business on the Internet. Notices of material breach must contain sufficient detail for the party against whom the assertion of material breach is directed to identify the breach and attempt to take corrective action. Third Party Services may be part of the Service. A decision to cease offering Third Party Services will not be a material breach.

7.4. Termination for your violation of our policies

We reserve the right to immediately suspend the Service and/or terminate this TOS: (i) for a violation of any of our policies, including those incorporated by reference; and/or (ii) your failure to pay any amounts due. This right of termination is without prejudice to any other rights we may have. You are not entitled to any type of notice or protest should we exercise these rights, nor will you receive a refund of any Fees.

8. Use of the Services

Your use of the Services must be reasonable. You may not place excessive burdens on our CPUs, servers or other resources. You agree that we may place restrictions on your use of the Service, and charge you excess bandwidth fees, to the extent that they exceed the use of the Service of similarly situated customers. You understand that bandwidth, connection speeds and other similar indices of capacity are maximum numbers. Consistently reaching these capacity numbers may result our need to place restrictions on your use of the Service.

You agree to cooperate with us to facilitate your use of the Service. This cooperation includes, but is not limited to, providing us with correct contact and billing information, designing material that is "server ready" and ensuring that you, your employees and/or agents have sufficient technical expertise to understand how to implement the Service.

Upon termination or expiration, your account will be closed. We have no responsibility to forward e-mail, or other communications, for you once your account is closed. You are encouraged to keep the Service active during a transition period should you seek to forward your e-mail or other communications.

You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Alpha Six and its parent, subsidiary and affiliated companies, third party service providers 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) your use of the Service; (ii) any violation by you of any of Alpha Six's policies; (iii) any breach of any of your representations, warranties or covenants contained in this TOS; and/or (iv) any acts or omissions by you.
