You and Web Loft together may be referred to herein as the “Parties” and each may be referred to herein as a “Party.” This Agreement explains our obligations to you, and your obligations to us in relation to any Services you purchase or otherwise utilize, subject to any SOW or other agreement for specific Services from Web Loft.
You acknowledge that you have read, understand and agree to be bound by all of the Terms and Conditions of this Agreement, as well as all other applicable rules or policies, terms and conditions, or service agreements that are or may be established by Web Loft from time to time and are incorporated herein by reference. Any specific Services from Web Loft, our partners and/or other third parties, may have their own service agreements (including SOWs) or other related terms and conditions (“Additional Agreements”), and it is your obligation to review, accept and abide by those Additional Agreements as well as this Agreement. Each Additional Agreement shall constitute a separate agreement and each Additional Agreement to which Web Loft is a party shall incorporate therein all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any Additional Agreement, the terms and conditions of such Additional Agreement shall prevail.

2. SERVICES

This Agreement applies to all Services, whether purchased or utilized separately or as part of a complete solution or packaged bundle. Your purchase of the Services, continued use of the Services, and/or continued access to the Services constitutes your acceptance of this Agreement. If you purchase Services that are sold together as a “bundled” package (e.g., you purchase a package that includes both a domain name, website design and development and/or mobile application development or other Services, as opposed to your purchasing such Services separately), termination of any part of the Services will result in the termination of all of such Web Loft Services provided as part of the bundled package. If you contract separately for Services then each separately contracted Services shall separately be governed by this Agreement and termination of any separately contracted Services shall not terminate other separately contracted Services. See Section 4 (Termination) for additional details on this subject.
You acknowledge and agree that some or all of the Services you purchase or receive from us may be provided by one or more vendors, contractors, subcontractors, assigns or affiliates selected by Web Loft in its sole and absolute discretion. As a part of your Services, Web Loft may provide you access to third-party functionality or services, including, but not limited to, applications, widgets, Rich Site Summary (“RSS”), other types of news, event and industry feeds, calculators, recommended copy, forms and templates that are incorporated or offered as a part of one or more of the Services (collectively, “Third-Party Functionality”). You acknowledge and agree that your use of any Third-Party Functionality to which you are provided access as part of any Web Loft Services shall be and will always be in accordance with the terms of any relevant third-party licenses, agreements and/or terms and conditions. Your failure to abide by any such third-party licenses, agreements and/or terms and conditions may result in the immediate termination of your Services provided by Web Loft. You understand and agree that Web Loft does not control such Third-Party Functionality and is therefore not liable to you or any third party for any issues of any kind relating to issues relating to Third- Party Functionality. Web Loft reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to terminate, suspend, cancel or alter your access to Third-Party Functionality at any time and without notice to you.

3. FEES AND PAYMENTS, TERM & RENEWALS

As consideration for the Services you purchase, order or otherwise utilize, you agree to pay Web Loft all applicable prices and fees as designated in the related order process or Additional Agreements, with such prices and fees subject to change as provided in this Agreement. All prices and fees are due immediately or upon ordering and are non-refundable, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the applicable Additional Agreement, as required by applicable law, or as such prices and fees are billed by Web Loft under an invoice or order confirmation for Services issued to a Customer that expressly permits payment as stated in such invoice or order confirmation (generally up to thirty (30) days after Web Loft has sent Customer such invoice or order confirmation, “Net-30 Customers”). Web Loft may require a Customer to successfully complete a credit application prior to such Customer qualifying to become a Net-30 Customer.
All quoted prices and fees exclude all applicable sales tax, use tax, value added tax (“VAT”), and other taxes and government charges, whether federal, state or foreign. You are responsible for payment of all such taxes (other than aggregate gross revenue taxes (e.g. Texas “margin tax”) or income taxes (e.g. U.S. income federal or state income tax) based on Web Loft’s aggregate gross revenue or income), fees, duties and charges on your payment for the purchase of Services arising from any and all fees under this Agreement. Accordingly, you agree to pay all VAT, sales and other taxes (other than taxes based on Web Loft aggregate gross revenue or income) related to Web Loft services or payments made by you hereunder. All payments of prices and fees for Web Loft Services shall be made in U.S. Dollars. If the currency of your bank or credit card account is not in U.S. dollars, you may be charged exchange rate conversion fees by your bank or credit card company. In addition, due to time differences between (i) the time you complete the checkout process; (ii) the time the transaction is processed; and (iii) the time the transaction posts to your bank or credit card, the conversion rates may fluctuate and Web Loft makes no representations or warranties that (a) the amount submitted to your bank or credit card for payment will be the same amount that is posted to your bank or credit card statement or (b) the estimated conversion price will be the same as either the amount processed or the amount posted to your bank or credit card statement, and you agree to waive any and all claims against Web Loft based upon such discrepancies (including any and all claims for a refund based on the foregoing). You acknowledge and agree that you may be charged sales tax, VAT and similar taxes based on your location indicated by your address information provided to Web Loft.
Unless otherwise stipulated in the related invoice or order process, payment for the Services are to be made via a charge to your credit card, charge card, PayPal account or bank account provided to us (the “Account”). You are solely and absolutely responsible for any Account information that you provide to Web Loft and must promptly inform Web Loft of any changes or updates to the method of payment. By contracting for or submitting an order for Services, you authorize Web Loft to charge the order to the Account or to otherwise immediately bill you for the Services in accordance with this Agreement and/or any Additional Agreement. You acknowledge and agree that unless otherwise expressly stipulated in the invoice or order process or otherwise changed afterwards in accordance with the applicable process, all annual, monthly or other recurring fees related to the Services or otherwise referenced in this Agreement are to be recurring transactions that will be billed on an ongoing basis until the Services are terminated in accordance with this Agreement. If you have provided billing information sufficient for automatic billing, then Web Loft will bill you automatically in accordance with the applicable billing frequency. You are obligated to pay for the full amount of the Agreement, even if such full amount is scheduled to be paid in installments. If you elect to pay for the Services in installments, provided such a payment schedule is expressly permitted and accepted by Web Loft, all installments must be received on or before the applicable due date.
Unless otherwise specified herein or in an Additional Agreement, on our website or in the applicable order process, each Web Loft Service provided on a subscription or recurring payment basis (collectively, “Subscription Services”) is for a one-year initial term and renewable thereafter for successive terms. Any Web Loft Subscription Service that provides for a monthly billing cycle may be billed every four (4) weeks. Any renewal of your Subscription Services is subject to our then current Terms and Conditions, including, but not limited to, successful completion of any applicable authentication procedure, and payment of all applicable service prices and fees at the time of renewal, and in the case of domain name registration or re-registration, the domain name registry’s acceptance of your domain name registration or re-registration. Upon prior notice, Web Loft may also charge an “Account Maintenance Fee” to maintain your active account in respect of Subscription Services. This Account Maintenance Fee shall be billed to your account each year, thirty (30) days following the annual anniversary date of your account creation. Except with respect to Subscription Services to which you subscribe on a monthly (or similar billing cycle) basis, we will endeavor, but are not obligated, to provide you with notice prior to the renewal of your Services at least fifteen (15) days prior to the renewal date.
Pricing for Subscription Services, renewals, and product upgrades and add-ons may vary based upon the date of your purchase. Additional payment terms may apply to the Services you purchase, as set forth in the applicable SOW, supplemental service and product agreements to this Agreement, Additional Agreement, on our website or as otherwise outlined in the applicable order process. Subscription Services to which you subscribe on a monthly or recurring basis automatically renew on a recurring basis until the Agreement is properly terminated in accordance with its terms. We may, at any time, activate the auto-renew service for eligible Services in your account if it is not already activated. Further, we may provide you with an opportunity to opt-in to our automatic renewal process in accordance with the instructions (and subject to your agreement to the terms and conditions pertaining to that process) on our website or in the applicable order process. You agree that if you are enrolled in or otherwise utilizing our auto-renew service, we will attempt to renew your service at some point less than ninety (90) days prior to its expiration without notice to you. Such automatic renewal for your Services, if successful, may be for a shorter term than the term for which you originally purchased your Services, but in no event shall such term be longer than the term then currently in place for the Services. Such automatic renewal for your Subscription Services, if successful, shall be at the then current price for the Services. You further agree that, to turn off the auto-renew service for any of your Subscription Services with Web Loft, you must call our Customer Service, or you may be able to turn off such auto-renew service utilizing the online account manager arrangements, if any, associated with your Services. You acknowledge and agree that the renewal price may be higher or lower than the price you paid for the then current term of the Subscription Services, and that we are authorized to charge your credit card or other payment method on file for the renewal of the Services. In any event, you are solely and absolutely responsible for the credit card or payment information you provide to Web Loft and must promptly inform Web Loft of any changes thereto (e.g., change of expiration date or account number). You acknowledge and agree that Web Loft may extend the expiration date or bill you beyond the cancellation date of your credit card on file with us in order to protect against unwanted expiration of your Services and to allow for the automatic renewal thereof. In addition, you are solely and absolutely responsible for ensuring ant Subscription Services are renewed. Web Loft shall have no liability to you or any third party in connection with the renewal as described herein, including, but not limited to, any failure or errors in renewing Subscription Services whether due to you, us or a third party. In order to process a renewal under our auto-renew service, we may use third-party vendors for the purpose of updating the expiration date and account number of your credit card or other payment method on file. Such third-party vendors maintain relationships with various credit card issuers and may be able to provide us with the updated expiration date and account number for your credit card by comparing the information we have on file with the information the third-party vendor has on file. By selecting our auto-renew service, you acknowledge and agree that we may share your credit card or other payment method information with such third-party vendors for the purpose of obtaining any update to your credit card expiration date, account number or payment account.
In the event that you are not enrolled in auto-renew, or have opted out of auto-renew, and want to renew your Subscription Services, you acknowledge and agree you are responsible for actively renewing your Subscription Services and you further assume all risk and consequences if you wait until the end of the Services term or otherwise to attempt to renew any such Services. If any Subscription Service is not successfully renewed prior to the expiration of its then current term, all your rights to such Service will terminate, and we will have no obligation to allow you to renew a Service once its expiration date has passed. Additionally, for domain name registration services, even if a registry administrator or third-party service provider provides a grace period to Web Loft upon expiration or termination of such Service, you acknowledge and agree that any post-expiration renewal or redemption processes implemented on your behalf are at our sole and absolute discretion, and may be subject to a late fee, reinstatement fee, redemption fee and/or other fee.
Without limiting any of Web Loft’s rights hereunder, should any payment owed to Web Loft become delinquent, Web Loft may suspend or cancel your Services; provided, however, related charges that cannot be suspended will continue to accrue. You acknowledge and agree that Web Loft is not responsible whatsoever for any effect the suspension of Services might have. If Web Loft provides any Service discount to you and you default on payments or obligations as outlined herein, Web Loft may rescind all discounts and require full payment for the Services. All sums due and payable that remain unpaid after any applicable cure period herein will accrue interest as a late charge of 1.5% per month or the maximum amount allowed by law, whichever is less. Web Loft further reserves the right to refer any amounts owed hereunder to a third party for collection in the event of default. In the event your account is sent to collection, you agree to pay all costs of collection, including litigation costs and attorneys’ fees. A $50.00 (Fifty U.S. Dollars) collection fee may be charged for all dishonored checks. Moreover, an additional fee may also be assessed for the following reasons: (i) late payment; (ii) payment with insufficient funds; (iii) denied or invalid credit card number; or (iv) the re-starting or reinstating of Subscription Services terminated for nonpayment. Web Loft will re-start or reinstate any such Service in our sole and absolute discretion and subject to our receipt of the applicable service fee, renewal fee or other fee.
If Customer pays for the Services by credit card or charge card, Customer permanently and irrevocably waives any and all right to enact a “chargeback” (that is, a disputed, reversed or contested charge with the applicable bank, credit card, charge card or other payment method) against these payments for any reason whatsoever against Web Loft. If for any reason Web Loft is unable to charge your Account or other payment method for the full amount owed for the Services provided, or if Web Loft receives notification of a chargeback, reversal, payment dispute or is charged a penalty for any fee it previously charged to your Account or other payment method, you agree that we may pursue all available lawful remedies in order to obtain payment, including, but not limited to, immediate cancellation, without notice to you, of any your Services (including domain names). We also reserve the right to charge you reasonable “administrative fees” or “processing fees” for (i) additional tasks we may perform outside the normal scope of the Services; (ii) additional time and/or costs we may incur in providing the Services, and/or (iii) your noncompliance with this Agreement (as determined by us in our sole and absolute discretion). Typical administrative or processing fee scenarios include, but are not limited to: (i) customer service issues that require additional personnel time or attention; (ii) recouping any and all costs and fees, including the cost of Services, incurred by Web Loft as the results of chargebacks or other payment disputes brought by you, your bank or other payment method processor. These administrative fees or processing fees will be billed to the Account or other payment method you have on file with Web Loft.
In general Web Loft contracts with its Customers on a time and materials basis with a Customer’s charges based upon the standard hourly rate of Web Loft’s professionals or as otherwise stated in applicable Additional Agreements. UNLESS STATED EXPLICITLY TO THE CONTRARY IN A CUSTOMER’S APPLICABLE ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS ALL SERVICES PERFORMED BY WEB LOFT ARE ON A TIME AND MATERIALS BASIS AND THE CUSTOMER SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE TO PAY WEB LOFT BASED ON ITS PROFESSIONALS’ STARDARD RATE OR, IF STATED THEREIN AS TO ANY PARTIOCULAR PROFESSIOAL OR TYPE OF PROFESSIONAL, AT THE RATES SET FORTH IN THE CUSTIMER’S APPLICABLE ADDITIOOPNAL AGREEMENTS. We may from time to time, either at a Customer’s request or at our own initiative, provide a Customer with an estimate of fees or costs that we reasonably anticipate will be incurred in connection with any particular service or project. It is understood that such estimates, which are predicated on a variety of assumptions, are subject to unforeseen circumstances and are by their nature inexact. No written or oral estimate, either before, at the time of, or following the execution of this Agreement, shall be construed to be a fee cap or fixed fee unless expressly agreed to by us. While you should presume that all time spent attending to your services or project by any of our professionals staff will be billed, we may elect (at your request or on our own initiative) to “write off” or “no charge” some costs, expenses, and fees. Any such write-offs are discretionary and are expressly contingent on there being nor arising any dispute regarding payment of the other amounts owed to us by you, whether such dispute is initiated by you or us. If we must take legal action to collect amounts due from you or if you seek to formally dispute our billings, by initiating mediation, arbitration, litigation, or a fee dispute in any forum, all “write off” or “no charge” costs, expenses, and fees for our services reflected on any statement to you will revert to being fully billed, and be sums owed to us by you, in addition to  sums otherwise owed by you to us, whether or not disputed. These provisions are explicitly written to prevent a situation where we reduce your bill by writing off costs, expenses, and fees, and then you seek to reduce the sums owed further by disputing your responsibility to pay the reduced sum.
Web Loft may apply against any amount payable to or on behalf of Customer any amount owed by Customer to Web Loft. Customer shall be deemed to have consented to such application.
CUSTOMER UNDERSTANDS AND AGREES THAT ALL WEB LOFT FEES AND CHARGES ARE NONREFUNDABLE AND THAT WEB LOFT MAY CHANGE ANY PRICE, FEE, RATE OR PLAN AT ANY TIME UPON NOTICE TO CUSTOMER IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 28 (NOTICE) OF THIS AGREEMENT.

4. TERMINATION

Web Loft may terminate this Agreement immediately for any or no reason and without prior notice to you, subject to any SOW or other Additional Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, Web Loft reserves the right to suspend or terminate all Services immediately without prior notice to you if Web Loft determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that (a) the working relationship between you and Web Loft is unsatisfactory (as may be the case if you are abusive, are unresponsive, or otherwise are not cooperative and/or able to maintain a wprkable and positive working dynamic in your approach to your relationship with Web Loft) or (b) you have failed to comply with any of your obligations as set forth in this Agreement. In the event of your chargeback by a credit card, charge card or other payment method, or other non-payment by you in connection with your payments of the applicable billing cycle fee, renewal fee or other applicable fee, you acknowledge and agree that all of your Services may be suspended, canceled or terminated, in our sole and absolute discretion and without notice to you.
Unless otherwise stipulated in the related order process, you may terminate Subscription Services by providing Web Loft Notice of termination in accordance with the Notice provisions of this Agreement and other Services in accordance with the termination provisions applicable to those other Services and the Services will terminate as of the end of the applicable, current billing period in respect of Subscription Services or otherwise in accordance with the termination provisions applicable to other Services. You are responsible for all fees incurred up to and including the date of termination and upon termination you may receive a final bill reflecting the balance due for any remaining charges and agrees to pay all such fees incurred by you and/or via your utilization of the Services.
Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein or on our website, Web Loft will cease charging your credit card, if applicable, for any Subscription Service fees as of the expiration of the billing cycle in which the termination is effective. Unless otherwise specified in writing by Web Loft, you will not receive any refund for payments already made by you as of the date of termination, regardless of whether any related Services have been performed, and you may also incur additional fees and/or be obligated to pay us for the balance of your term. If termination of this Agreement is due to your default hereunder, you shall bear all costs of such termination, including any reasonable costs Web Loft incurs in closing your account and you further agree to pay any and all costs incurred by Web Loft in enforcing your compliance with this Section. Upon termination, you must destroy any copy of the materials licensed to you hereunder and referenced herein. You agree that upon termination or discontinuance for any reason, we may delete all information related to you on the Service, if applicable.

1. Termination of Bundled Services. In addition to the Terms and Conditions set forth herein, if you purchase Web Loft Services which are sold together as a solution or bundled package of Services, any termination relating to any one such solution or bundled package will terminate all Web Loft Services included in such solution or bundled package. For instance, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any domain name registered with or maintained by Web Loft under this Agreement (but not including any domain names you may have registered, either with Web Loft or a third-party registrar, separately and not as part of a bundled package) may be cancelled and may thereafter be available for registration by another party. You acknowledge and agree that upon any termination or cancellation of your solution or bundled package, the Terms and Conditions regarding transfer of expired domain names as described in this Service Agreement may apply. Upon the effective date of termination, Web Loft will no longer provide the solution or bundled package to you, any licenses granted to you will immediately terminate, and you must cease using such Services immediately; provided, however, that we may, in our sole and absolute discretion and subject to your agreement to be bound by the applicable agreements and to pay the applicable fees, allow you to convert certain Services included in the bundled Services to stand-alone Services.

Except as expressly permitted by applicable law, Customer shall neither make nor publish any statement that disparages, casts in a negative light, or otherwise impugns and/or damages the reputation of Web Loft or any of principal or any Affiliate of Web Loft, or their respective agents, officers, directors, managers, or employees, as the case may be.

13. NON-SOLICITATION.

Customer agrees that without expressed written consent, at all times until this Agreement is terminated, while Customer is employing the Services of Web Loft and for twenty-four (24) months after all work to be performed under this Agreement has been completed, Customer will not, directly or indirectly, whether individually or as an officer, director, employee, consultant, partner, stockholder, individual proprietor, joint venturer, investor, lender, consultant or in any other capacity whatsoever: solicit, divert, hire, retain (including as a consultant) or encourage to any employee or contractor of Web Loft to leave the employment or terminate its contractual arrangements with Web Loft, and that Customer shall not hire or retain (including as a consultant) any the current employee or contractor or former employee or contractor of Web Loft who has left the employment or contract period of Web Loft within twelve (24) months prior to such hiring or retention by Customer.

Accordingly, Customer agrees that for each violation of this paragraph, Customer shall pay Web Loft $75,000 as liquidated damages in the event of each violation of the foregoing agreements of Customer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section shall include only employees and contractors of Web Loft who provide services to Web Loft’s customers and shall not include accountants, attorneys or other independent contractors of Web Loft who provide services only to Web Loft itself.

14. INDEMNIFICATION

You agree to release, indemnify, defend and hold harmless Web Loft and Web Loft’s officers, directors, employees, agents, partners, contractors, shareholders, attorneys, assigns and affiliates from and against any loss, liabilities, damages, costs, or expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, resulting from any third-party claim, action or demand arising under or relating to:
(i) this Agreement or the breach of Customer warranties, representations and obligations under this Agreement or any other Web Loft term, rule, policy or agreement;
(ii) Customer’s failure to perform in accordance with this Agreement;
(iii) Customer’s use of the Services;
(iv) the Website, Content and/or URLs; or
(v) Customer’s violation of any third-party rights.
You agree that this indemnification obligation survives this Agreement’s termination or expiration. You agree to give prompt, written notice to Web Loft upon the receipt of notice of any claim by a third party against you which might give rise to a claim against Web Loft, stating the nature and basis of such claim and, if ascertainable, the amount thereof.
When Web Loft is threatened with a lawsuit or is sued by a third party, Web Loft may seek written assurances from you concerning your promise to indemnify Web Loft. Such assurances may, without limitation, be in the form of a deposit of money by you to Web Loft or its representatives to cover Web Loft ‘s fees and expenses, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, in any such lawsuit or threat of suit. Your failure to provide such assurances shall be considered by Web Loft to be a material breach of this Agreement. Web Loft shall have the right to participate in any defense by you of a third-party claim related to your use of any of Web Loft’s Services, with counsel of Web Loft’s choice. Web Loft shall reasonably cooperate in the defense at your request and expense. You shall have sole and absolute responsibility to defend Web Loft against any claim, but you must receive Web Loft’s prior written consent regarding any related settlement.
The use of Web Loft’s Services to transmit certain kinds of information (including, but not limited to, computer software and other technical data) may violate export control laws and regulations of the United States, whether that information is received abroad or by foreign nationals within the United States. Since Web Loft exercises no control whatsoever over the information that is received abroad or by foreign nationals within the United States, you agree to comply with all export and import requirements as referenced herein. Since Web Loft exercises no control whatsoever over the content of information passing through its Service, the entire burden of complying with all applicable laws and regulations is your obligation. You agree to comply with such applicable laws and regulations and to indemnify and hold Web Loft harmless from any damages it may suffer resulting from any violation of the export control laws of the United States.

15. WAIVER

No waiver of any provision of this Agreement is effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of Web Loft. Web Loft’s remedies under this Agreement are cumulative and not alternative, and the election of one remedy for a breach does not preclude pursuit of other remedies. The failure of Web Loft to require your performance of any Agreement provision does not affect the full right to require such performance at any time in the future. The waiver by Web Loft of any rights arising out of any breach of any Agreement provision shall not be taken or held to be a waiver of the provision itself. Any failure by Web Loft to enforce any of its rights under this Agreement or any applicable laws does not constitute a waiver of such right.
Neither Party will be deemed to have waived any of its rights under this Agreement by lapse of time or by any statement or representation other than (i) by an authorized representative and (ii) in an explicit written waiver. No waiver of any rights arising out of a breach of this Agreement will constitute a waiver of rights relating to any prior or subsequent breach of this Agreement.

16. SEVERABILITY

You agree that the terms of this Agreement are severable. If any term or provision is declared invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, that term or provision will not affect the remainder of this Agreement. This Agreement will be deemed amended to the extent necessary to make this Agreement enforceable, valid and, to the maximum extent possible, consistent with applicable law and consistent with the original intention of the Parties; and the remaining terms and provisions will remain in full force and effect.
If any provision of this Agreement is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, Web Loft will amend or replace such provision with one that is valid and enforceable and which achieves, to the extent possible, the original objectives and intent of Web Loft as reflected in the original provision. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement does not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, which will remain in full force and effect.

17. FORCE MAJEURE

Neither Party is deemed in default hereunder, nor will it hold the other Party responsible for, any cessation, interruption or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement due to earthquake, flood, fire, storm, natural disaster, act of God, war, terrorism, armed conflict, labor strike, lockout or boycott, provided that in the event a force majeure event described in this Section extends for a period in excess of thirty (30) days in the aggregate, Web Loft may immediately terminate this Agreement and will have no liability therefrom.
