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. Client will have the ability to reinstate files which are automatically archived by hostproof.com; however, hostproof.com does not guarantee the existence, accuracy, or regularity of its backup services and, therefore, Client is responsible for making back-up files in connection with its use of the Services. Backup capability is available through the Client’s Control Panel. A charge may apply if the Client orders a restore.
Termination. hostproof.com reserves the right to refuse service to anyone. hostproof.com, 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 contact abuse@hostproof.com.

2. PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS
Service Fees. Every month hostproof.com shall either (i) debit Client's credit card (where such information is provided by Client) or (ii) deliver by e-mail or regular mail an invoice to Client in accordance with the applicable Services fees for services rendered for the current month. Where an invoice is delivered to Client, Client shall remit payment to hostproof.com by no later than the specified payment due date. hostproof.com shall be entitled to immediately terminate this Agreement for Client's failure to make timely payments to hostproof.com. Certain services carry a set-up fee charged by hostproof.com to Client that must be paid by Client in order to have use of the Services. If Client terminates this Agreement in accordance with Section 4 hereunder, Client shall be responsible for any outstanding fees owed to hostproof.com and agrees to pay any and all fees incurred by Client. Because the Services are provided on a monthly basis, Client will be responsible for Service fees incurred each month regardless of when Client provides notice of termination. Thus, for example, if Client provides notice to terminate on the 15th of a particular month, Client will still owe fees for the entire month and such fees will not be pro-rated or refunded. If Client has retained the Services for one (1) year and has pre-paid hostproof.com for such Services, refunds will be issued for any unused full month portions of the Services upon Clients request. Therefore, if Client's account is cancelled at any point during the one (1) year term, Client will be entitled to a refund for the months remaining after notice given by the 25th of the preceding month.
Domain Names. If Client chooses to register a domain name(s) through hostproof.com, Client acknowledges and agrees that Client will pay a registration fee(s) to register the domain name(s) with the applicable domain name registrar. hostproof.com does not offer refunds for domain name registrations for any reason, including misspelling of the domain name.

4. TERM, TERMINATION & REINSTATEMENT
