General

This Agreement sets forth the Terms and Conditions that apply to use of the Service by you. By using the Service, you agree to comply with all of the Terms and Conditions set out in this document.

We shall have the right at any time to change or modify the Terms and Conditions applicable to your use of the Services, or any part thereof, or to impose new conditions, including, but not limited to, adding fees and charges for use. Such changes, modifications, additions or deletions shall be effective immediately upon notice by us, which may be given by any means including, but not limited to, posting on our website, or by electronic or conventional mail. Any use of the Services by you after such notice shall be deemed to constitute acceptance by you of such changes, modifications or additions.

Our Services are provided on the basis of, and are subject to, service, facility and equipment availability. We reserve the right not to provide one or more Services where necessary facilities, equipment or services are not available for any reason whatsoever.

Our Data Centers

Our fully redundant (N+1), climate controlled data centers on both coasts offer our customers reliability they can count on. Inyerface.com and our partner also just invested in brand new expansions and improvements to both data centers that included upgrades to our own carrier level platforms as well as consulting on our business partner's improvements so that they better suit our needs.

We have four Tier 1 ISP providers at all times – that means even if something catastrophic happened (think major natural disaster), we would have multiple backups to keep your data flowing. We also upgraded our own routers to carrier grade level for maximum efficiency. Our data centers are some of the most secure places on earth with armed guards, hand scanners and locked vaults – just like stuff you see in sci-fi movies.

Ours and our partners' background is business and technology - and we are always looking for new software, hardware and methods to complement our existing tools. It's not just a matter of business but a matter of pride to our experienced staff.

Term and Termination

The Service is for an initial term as agreed between us and shall automatically renew at the end of the initial Term on a month-to-month basis unless terminated by either of us in accordance with these Terms and Conditions or if it is an annual service, in this case it will renew on an annual basis.

If, within an agreement of a fixed duration, you are benefiting from a promotional price, that is to say a rate that is less than the usual monthly rate for the same service, you may not terminate your agreement before the end of the fixed term. All charges shall be paid in advance, upon receipt of your first invoice. Upon the expiration of your agreement, your service shall automatically renew for the same term at the regular price, unless you give us a written notice, at least 30 days in advance. If you choose to cancel the agreement prior to the expiration date, the regular price will be applied retroactively from the start of your subscription. You shall be reimbursed on pro rated basis of your remaining prepaid charges.

If you are dissatisfied with our service, or with any of our terms, conditions, rules, policies, guidelines, or practices in operating the Service, or if you are simply moving on for other reasons, your sole and exclusive remedy is to terminate your Service agreement with us in accordance with our cancellation policy and discontinue using the Service. You must provide us with no less than thirty (30) days notice prior to the next billing date. To terminate your account you must submit a Cancellation Request by logging into your account and selecting the service you wish to cancel. You are bound to the term of your service agreement until we received notice of your Cancellation Request.

No refunds will be given for partial terms or for any initial registration fee.

We reserve the right to terminate any Service to you immediately and without notice for cause in the event that you breach this Agreement. We may, at our sole discretion, suspend your service in lieu of terminating this Agreement while we investigate the alleged breach of this Agreement.
