SERVER USE

Serverpeak expects every account holder to take every reasonable step to ensure the services and servers they have access to do not disrupt or damage the service delivered by Serverpeak to it's entire customer base.

Serverpeak reserves the right to refuse service and/or access to its servers and network to anyone.
Serverpeak does not allow any of the following content to be stored on its servers or network:
1. Illegal material, including copyrighted works, commercial audio, video, or music files, and any material of any type in violation of any Federal, State or Local law or regulation anywhere in the world.
2. Scripts - Any Script that causes an undue load to the Serverpeak network.
3. Adult material, including pornography, erotic images, or otherwise lewd or obscene content of any type. What constitutes "adult material" is entirely at the discretion of Serverpeak.
4. Warez, including pirated software, ROMS, emulators, phreaking, hacking, password cracking. IP spoofing, etc., and encrypting of any of the above. Also includes any sites which provide "links to" or "how to" information about such material.

BANDWIDTH

Each service has an allocated bandwidth allowance. Bandwidth is monitored and Serverpeak reserves the right to disable a service that exceeds their bandwidth allowance without notice. Excess bandwidth is charged at the rate of up to 1c per mb in excess of that allowed for the account holder.

HIGH RESOURCE USER POLICY

Resources are defined as bandwidth and/or processor utilization.
Serverpeak may implement the following policy to its sole discretion:
When a server is found to be excessively using the resources available, Serverpeak reserves the right to suspend the services delivered to the server in question immediately. This policy is only implemented in extreme circumstances and is intended to prevent the misuse of our network. Customers may be offered an option whereby Serverpeak continue to maintain network connectivity.

PAYMENT POLICIES

All accounts are set up on a prepay basis. Although Serverpeak reserves the right to change prices of accounts or services at any time, all pricing is guaranteed for the period of prepayment. Payment is due on each anniversary period of the date the account and/or service was established. Customers will automatically be charged at the end of their previous anniversary period unless written closure notification has been given to Serverpeak at least 15 days in advance.
Where the account holder provided debit or credit card details and the debit is declined, Serverpeak may immediately suspend the facility to purchase services on-line until the outstanding charge is processed successfully. In addition, Serverpeak reserves the right to suspend other services until the outstanding debt is cleared. The customer is responsible for all money owed on the account from the time it was established to the time that the customer sends a written cancellation request.

No bills or invoices will be sent by regular mail. All invoices will be sent directly to customers via e-mail shortly after the online purchase has been made. At this point the customer's debit or credit card will be charged automatically.

In the event an account is delinquent for a period in excess of 30 days the customers information and outstanding invoices shall be forwarded to the appropriate debt collection agencies for recuperation. In order to recover the resources spent on late payment accounts an additional 10% PER 30 DAY period may be charged on outstanding invoices. Additionally, all legal charges incurred by Serverpeak while recovering the aforementioned debt will be past directly onto the customer at no additional premium.

PAYMENT OPTIONS

In order to streamline our accounting procedures and keep costs down Serverpeak runs a limited number of payment options:
Credit / Debit Cards - Mastercard and Visa (not Visa electron) only are accepted.
Direct Deposit - A service will be commissioned only after a direct deposit payment has been received and verified. It is the responsibility of the customer to inform Serverpeak when such a payment is made.
Cheque Payment - This option is only available to customers who pay annually for their Serverpeak account. A credit / debit card number will still be required if customers require the facility to purchase additional services on-line. Serverpeak cannot guarantee that a service will be provided until after any received cheques have been cleared.


FREE TRIAL

Customers will not be entitled to this benefit if they have previously had an account with Serverpeak unless the period of absence has been greater than one year. New customers will not be entitled to a trial period if any account has previously been created at the same postal address within the same 12 month time span.
