Licensed Software Only

Client agrees to use only properly licensed third party software in connection with Client's use of the Services.

Back-Up Files and Processing

ImpavidNet performs daily backups on all servers which can be restored in the case of a system failure; however, it is the Clients responsibility to use the Backup feature of their preferred control panel and keep their own copy.

Applications and Scripts

The client agree's that applications and scripts installed using Fantastico or uploaded are the responsibilty of the client and must be kept up-to-date. Failure to do so may expose our servers to possible exploits and costs to restore services may be recovered from the client of the site initially affected.

Termination

ImpavidNet reserves the right to refuse service to anyone. ImpavidNet, in its sole discretion, may immediately terminate this Agreement if Client engages in any of the foregoing. To report any unacceptable behavior by a third party using the Services, please use the email link on the Contact page.

Service Fees

ImpavidNet shall produce an invoice which will be delivered to the Client by email with payment details for the Client's selected payment method. All new accounts must be paid prior to the new account becoming active on our servers.
