Terms of Service

TERMS OF SERVICE (TOS)
This Web Hosting Agreement (this “Agreement”) is between Blue Arctic LLC. (“Blue Arctic”), a United States Limited Liability Company, and the person (individual or legal person) whose signs Blue Arctic’s service order and set up form (the “Order”) incorporating this Agreement by reference (“Customer”). This Agreement governs Customer’s use of Blue Arctic’s Web hosting service.
SERVICES
Subject to the terms of this Agreement, and contingent on Customer’s satisfaction of Blue Arctic LLC’s credit approval requirements, Blue Arctic LLC agrees to provide the web hosting services described in the Order for the fees stated in the Order.
TERM
The initial service term of the Agreement shall begin on the date that Blue Arctic LLC generates an e-mail message to Customer announcing the activation of the Customer’s account (the “Service Commencement Date”) and shall continue for the number of months stated in the Order (the “Initial Term”). Upon expiration of the Initial Term, this Agreement shall automatically renew for up to three successive renewal terms of the same length as the Initial Term (each a “Renewal Term”) unlessl Blue Arctic LLC or Customer provides the other with written notice of non-renewal at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or then-current Renewal Term, as applicable. The Initial Term and any Renewal Term may be referred to collectively in this Agreement as the “Term.”
PAYMENTS
1. Fees

Fees are payable in advance on the first day of each billing cycle. Customer’s billing cycle shall be monthly or annually as indicated on the Order, beginning on the Service Commencement Date. Blue Arctic LLC may require payment for the first billing cycle before beginning service. If the Order provides for credit/debit card billing, Customer authorizes Blue Arctic LLC to bill subsequent fees to the credit/debit card on or after the first day of each successive billing cycle during the Term of this Agreement; otherwise Blue Arctic LLC will invoice Customer via electronic mail to the Primary Customer Contact listed on the Order. Invoiced fees may be issued on or before the 1st day of each billing cycle, and the fees shall be due on the 14th day following invoice date, but in no event earlier than the first day of each billing cycle.

Payments must be made in United States dollars. Customer is responsible for providing Blue Arctic LLC with changes to billing information (such as credit card expiration, change in billing address) At its option, Blue Arctic LLC may accrue charges to be made to a credit/debit card until such charges exceed $10.00. Blue Arctic LLC may charge interest on overdue amounts at the lesser of 1.5% per month or the maximum non-usurious rate under applicable law. Blue Arctic LLC may suspend the service without notice if payment for the service is overdue. Fees not disputed within sixty (60) days of due date are conclusively deemed accurate. Customer agrees to pay Blue Arctic LLC’s reasonable reinstatement fee following a suspension of service for non-payment, and to pay Blue Arctic LLC’s reasonable costs of collection of overdue amounts, including collection agency fees, attorney fees and court costs.

2. Fee Increases
Blue Arctic LLC may increase its fees for services effective the first day of a Renewal Term by giving notice to Customer of the new fees at least forty five (45) days prior to the beginning of the Renewal Term, and if Customer does not give a notice of non-renewal as provided in Section 2 above, the Customer shall be deemed to have accepted the new fee for that Renewal Term and any subsequent Renewal Terms (unless the fees are increased in the same manner for a subsequent Renewal Term).
3. Taxes
At Blue Arctic LLC’s request Customer shall remit to Blue Arctic LLC all sales, VAT or similar tax imposed on the provision of the services (but not in the nature of an income tax on Blue Arctic LLC), regardless of whether Blue Arctic LLC fails to collect the tax at the time the related services are provided.
4. Early Termination
Customer acknowledges that the amount of the fee for the service is based on Customer’s agreement to pay the fee for the entire Initial Term, or Renewal Term, as applicable. In the event Blue Arctic LLC terminates the Agreement for Customer’s breach of the Agreement in accordance with Section 9 (Termination), or Customer terminates the service other than in accordance with Section 9 (Termination) for Blue Arctic LLC’s breach, the unpaid fees for each billing cycle remaining in the Initial Term or then-current Renewal Term, as applicable, are due on the business day following termination of the Agreement.
LAW/AUP
Customer agrees to use the service in compliance with applicable law and Blue Arctic LLC’s Acceptable Use Policy (AUP), which is hereby incorporated by reference in this Agreement. Customer agrees that Blue Arctic LLC may, in its reasonable commercial judgment consistent with industry standards, amend the AUP from time to time to further detail or describe reasonable restrictions and conditions on Customer’s use of the Services. Amendments to the AUP are effective on the earlier of Blue Arctic LLC’s notice to Customer that an amendment has been made, or the first day of any Renewal Term that begins subsequent to the amendment. Customer agrees to cooperate with Blue Arctic LLC’s reasonable investigation of any suspected violation of the AUP. In the event of a dispute between Blue Arctic LLC and Customer regarding the interpretation of the AUP, Blue Arctic LLC’s commercially reasonable interpretation of the AUP shall govern.
