Website Services Agreement

Carefully read the following terms and conditions of this agreement. By accessing and using the web services of Ultra Services, LLC (“Ultra Services”), you (“Customer”) indicate the acceptance of the following terms and conditions and you agree to be bound by them. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THIS AGREEMENT, DO NOT ACCESS OR USE THE Ultra SERVICES WEBSITE SERVICES.

This agreement constitutes the complete and exclusive statement of the agreement between you and Ultra Services with respect to the Ultra Web Hosting Services.

Now, therefore, in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth herein, Ultra Services and Customer agree as follows:

1.Order Acceptance, Payment.

A.All orders are subject to acceptance by Ultra Services. An order will be deemed accepted by Ultra Services when Ultra Services sends confirmation of the order to Customer via a Welcome Email.

B.Ultra Services shall charge Customer’s credit card for the applicable fees, monthly fees, or annual fees, according to the Package(s) as selected by Customer and provided by Ultra Services. Ultra Services reserves the right to change the amount of, or basis for determining, any fees or charges and institute new fees and charges upon prior notice to Customer. Customer must provide Ultra Services with a valid credit card number to which Ultra Services will automatically charge all Ultra Services fees as they become due. All monthly fees and set-up fees shall be due in advance of the month incurred and all additional charges shall be due every month on that day which such charges are incurred. Except as provided in Section 3, the set-up fees are non refundable for Services such as Domains and Traffic and Ultra Services does not issue pro rata refunds for fees paid in advance. If payment by Customer’s credit card is denied, or Customer’s charge is returned to Ultra Services for any reason, including charge back or Customer otherwise fails to make any payments owing to Ultra Services, Ultra Services may, at Ultra Services discretion, suspend or terminate access to the Ultra Services Website Services and/or terminate this Agreement. Customer’s right to use the Ultra Services Website Services are subject to any limits established by Ultra Services or by the issuer of Customer’s credit card. A 15-Day grace period may be given to correct unpaid balances.

2.Ultra Services Website Services.

A.During the term of this Agreement, Ultra Services shall provide software services to Customer according to the Package(s) accepted by Customer (the ‘Ultra Services Website Services’). ‘Package’ means one of Ultra Services business and/or electronic commerce service offerings, as can be found on Ultra Services Web site at http://www.UltraWebHosting.com. The specific Package to be provided to Customer shall be established by correspondence between Ultra Services and Customer. Such Package shall be deemed incorporated by reference into this Agreement, as if fully set forth herein.

B.At Customer’s request, Ultra Services will acquire an Internet Second-Level Domain Name (‘Domain Name’), from the Contracted Registrar on behalf of Customer. Customer’s request for and/or acceptance of a Domain Name obtained by Ultra Services shall in all cases constitute Customer’s waiver of any and all claims which Customer may have, or which may later arise, against Ultra Services or its third party providers, for any and all damages, losses, claims or expenses arising our or related to the acquisition, registration and/or use of the Domain Name. Any cost incurred by Ultra Services to obtain and/or maintain the Domain Name on behalf of Customer shall be charged to Customer by Ultra Services. Request for and acceptance of a domain name requires Ultra Services to supply the domain name to the Contracted Registrar, which in turns supplies the Domain Name to third parties. Ultra Services will be the sole billing and technical contact for the Domain Name. Domain name renewals automatically incur 30 days before order anniversary to prevent expiration and downtime of the domain unless customer cancels the renewal 31 days before the expiration date. Domain registration renewals and new orders will not be processed until client account balance is in positive standing.

C.Exceeding Web Site Traffic Limitations: If a site exceeds its maximum monthly allotment of traffic, the site will become unavailable until the beginning of the next calendar month unless customer chooses to upgrade his/her hosting package. Unavailability includes but may not be limited to the inability to access the site publicly or to publish to or modify the site’s contents via certain Web creation tools. Ultra Services will not be held responsible for any material or loss of income as a result of site unavailability.

3.Limited 45-Day Money-Back Guarantee and Refunds.

Ultra Services offers a forty-five (45) day money back guarantee on each Shared Hosting Package, but not including Dedicated Servers, Reseller Plans, Domain Registration, SSL Certificates, Consultation and other services. If Customer is not completely satisfied with the Ultra Services Website Services provided under such Hosting Package within the first forty-five (45) days of a new account, Customer may cancel this Agreement by notifying Ultra Services via contact page form or to the address listed in Section 7C. In such case, Customer will receive a refund of amount paid, on verification, on pursuant to this Agreement, except for any set-up fees if applicable, which are non refundable. After the initial forty-five (45) day period, the Ultra Services Website Service shall be deemed accepted for all purposes, provided no written claim has been received by Ultra Services within such fifteen (45) day period. Hosting accounts that are suspended or terminated due to abuse, excessive server load, illegal activity or breach of this agreement in any way are non-refundable.

4.Rules and Regulations.

From time to time Ultra Services may impose reasonable rules and regulations regarding the use of the Ultra Services Website Services. Such rules and regulations are called acceptable use policies.

C.Unauthorized access. Using the Services to access, or to attempt to access, the accounts of others, or to penetrate, or attempt to penetrate, security measures of Ultra Services whether or not the intrusion results in the corruption or loss of data.

D.Copyright or trademark infringement.

This also includes warez, cracking and hacking websites which promote illegal activities and copyright violation.

E.Adult oriented websites. We do not host adult websites or websites of a sexual orientation.

F.SPAM. Transmitting mass e-mail to an untargeted audience and/or that has not opted to receive such an e-mail. We have a zero tolerance SPAM policy. Any account that is utilized to send out SPAM will be terminated without notice. Any account terminated for SPAM is subject to a $300 administration fee, this fee will be charged directly to the credit card on file. In addition, any losses incurred by Ultra Services because of said action will be the direct responsibility of the account holder.

G.Excessive loading of server. If a website(account) is deemed to occupy an excessive amount of load on the server’s processor/RAM which interrupts services or other client functionality, the account holder will receive warning to reduce the load of the site or upgrade to a dedicated server plan. User account load on a shared or semi-dedicated account of 25% or more of system resources for longer then 90 seconds is deemed over-excessive. This includes CGI scripts, FTP, PHP, HTTP, mail, etc. If load is not reduced or account upgraded, the account may be terminated. If the load is affecting server performance dramatically an immediate suspension may be performed. Accounts suspended due to excessive processor loads may be subject to a $100 administration fee. This fee will be charged directly to the credit card on file. Accounts that are not in positive billing standing may remain suspended until payment is received and do not receive a 15-day grace period benefit.

H.Bulk Emailing. Transmitting mass e-mail. Bulk mailing to an opted list under account holder control is allowed with an account limit of 150 emails per hour per domain. Bulk safe-list sending and receiving are not permitted under our services due excessive strains on servers. Accounts that are found to be bulk emailing and causing excessive server load fall under section 4.G.

I.Bots/Services/Daemons. The use of bots, unauthorized services or daemons of any kind are not permitted on shared hosting servers. IRC usage is also not permitted on shared servers.

J.Gaming services. Gaming scripts, including Teamspeak, bots, stat processors along with map downloads are prohibited on our shared and semi-dedicated accounts.

K.Reseller Rights. Shared accounts may not resell web hosting or host to other individuals. A reseller account is required to resell hosting.

Q.Torrent sites are prohibited.

R.Hacking Sites. Hacking related sites are strictly prohibited on all of our services.

S.Paid to Surf Scripts. GPT, Paid to surf and PTC scripts are not allowed on any shared hosting plans due to their very high processor load requirements. A dedicated server plan is required.

T.Inode Limit. Shared hosting plans are limited to 150,000 inodes. If this number is exceeded an upgrade to a semi-dedicated plan or greater will be required. Every file including web pages, images, email, web stats, etc count as 1 inode. Sites that slightly exceed our inode limits are unlikely to be suspended; however, accounts that constantly create and delete large numbers of files on a regular basis, have hundreds of thousands of files, or cause file system damage will need to be upgraded to a better suited hosting plan. Over time, tens of thousands of messages (or more) build up, eventually pushing the account past our inode limit. To disable your default mailbox, login to cPanel and choose “Mail”, then “Default Address”, “Set Default Address”, and then type in: :fail: No such user here.

U.Backup Service. Accounts that are over the size of 5GBs in disk space may lose our free automatic backup service. It is the responsibility of the webmaster to backup data locally to their computer over 5GBs. No notice will be given.
