Full payment is required before any hosting service is rendered, whichincludes renewals. All payment-due notices will be sent by electronicmail. No bills or invoices will be sent by postal mail or fax.Prepayment is due each anniversary (one month, one quarter, bi-annuallyor one year) following the date the account was established. Billingwill continue until you cancel your hosting account. You may cancel atanytime. As a policy, we do not offer credits or refunds for hostingtime already expended. If your account balance, at anytime, is notcurrent for a period of 30 consecutive days, it will be placed inSuspended status. The suspension period lasts for a total of 14consecutive days - if payment has not been received by the end of the14 day suspension period, your account will be terminated from theserver.

We do give refunds for full months unused, should you want to cancel prepaid service. If you decide to cancel after prepayment, you will not receive a refund for the current month in use (we do not give partial months refunds). If you have prepaid and received a multi-month discount, upon cancellation we will figure the refund by retroactively withdrawing the discount back to the start date of the contract. This will result in paying full undiscounted price for the months used and refunding the balance. This only applies to cancellation by the client. If cancellation is made by Fleetline Networks due to TOS or restrictions violation, there will be no refund. Fleetline Networks will only allow for the discount if cancellation is not the fault of the client, as determined by Fleetline Networks. All monetary transactions are in $US dollars. Additional features can be added at any time. Monthly feature prices are not prorated. Fleetline Networks reserves the right to change prices at any time.

You will be notified in 24 hours regarding the offending CGI script. 

Fleetline Networks is not responsible for scripts that you use in your hosting account(s). It is not our responsibility to ensure your scripts function. Please don't expect or ask Fleetline Networks support technicians to troubleshoot your scripts or third-party applications.

Traffic Policy:  top
 
Fleetline Networks allows for very generous traffic, and most sites never exceed 500MB per month, unless they offer shareware, sound, video, image and multimedia archives, are mirror sites or any site whose primary purpose is file distribution. Fleetline Networks customers are discouraged from storing any files that cause excessive traffic on Fleetline Networks servers. Please contact our Support Team for more information. Again, 99% of the sites do not fall into this category and never reach our traffic limits.

We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason not prohibited by law. Also we reserve the right to terminate service to any customer for any reason not prohibited by law.

Any deliberate attempt to cause damage to Fleetline Networks or any other Internet servers will result in immediate account deactivation without notice. No refund is given in this case.

Backups:  top
 
Backups are made nightly. No guarantees are made of any kind, either expressed or implied, as to the integrity of these backups. Backups are made for server restoration purposes only. It is the client's responsibility to maintain local copies of their web content.

The "Backup Manager" is included in each hosting plan and client can use this tool to back up their files. If loss of data occurs due to an error of Fleetline Networks, we will attempt to recover the date at no charge to the client. If data loss occurs due to negligence of the client in securing their account or by an action of the client, Fleetline Networks will attempt to recover the data from the most recent archive for a $50.00 fee.

Support Policy:  top
 
It is the client's responsibility to have a good working knowledge of their web site operations. Please do not expect Fleetline Networks Support staff to teach you how to use the tools at your disposal. Fleetline Networks does not provide Web design, programming or scripting services.
