  • Background:

    A. Company is in the business of providing Website Hosting Services.

    B. Client desires to hire Company to provide such services.

    NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises herein contained and other good and valuable consideration (the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged), the undersigned parties, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

    Agreement:

    1. Website Hosting Services. Company agrees to provide Client with services for hosting a Website (the “Website”) on the World Wide Web portion of the Internet (the “Hosting Services”). Company’s web server maintaining the Website (the “Host Server”) will be located within Company’s facility or a hosting provider or colocation facility subcontracted by Company. Company shall provide the Hosting Services so that the Website is accessible to third parties via the World Wide Web portion of the Internet as specified in this Agreement. Company is responsible only for providing the Hosting Services, and not for providing any services or performing any tasks not specifically described in this Agreement.

    2. Client Responsibilities. Client shall provide to Company all materials comprising the Website (the “Client Content”), which shall be in a correct format (as specified by Company in consultation with Client). The Client Content shall be properly adapted and translated by Client for posting to the Host Server so that the Website may be accessed via the Internet. Throughout the term of this Agreement, Client is solely responsible for all updates or modifications to the Client Content.

    3. Company Responsibilities.

    3.1. Availability. Within a reasonable time after receipt of the Client Content, Company will make the Website available on the World Wide Web (the “Installation Date”). Thereafter, Company will use commercially reasonable efforts, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make the Website accessible via the World Wide Web portion of the Internet twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven (7) days a week, except for scheduled maintenance and required repairs, and will use reasonable efforts to ensure reasonable response times for users accessing the Website. Company shall incrementally backup the Website and store the backup materials in a safe and secure environment. Upon the termination of this Agreement, after the payment of all fees called for herein, Company shall use commercially reasonable effort to assist in the transfer of the Website to the computer system owned and operated by Client and/or its designated third party contractor.

    3.2. Security. Company shall endeavor to keep the site files and data as secure as possible, but makes no warranties about the security of any site code or data. Should the Website files or content, whether provided by Company or the Client, become compromised through any manner of security breach or exploit, Company shall, at its sole discretion, take down the site, repair the files and data, and bill the Client for the work at prevailing hourly rates. Company will communicate with the Client regarding the nature of the breach or exploit and the nature of the resolution.

    4. Domain Name Registration. Client shall provide Company with a registered domain name. If Client does not have a registered domain name, Company will, upon request, use commercially reasonable efforts to register domain name(s) selected by Client provided that such domain name is available for registration and does not violate any registration services’ policies, or any law or regulation for a charge of $75. In the event of any dispute arising out of or related to Client’s domain name used in connection with the Website, upon Client’s request, Company will attempt to register an alternative domain name chosen by Client and attempt to make the Website available under such alternative name (all at Client’s sole expense).

    5. Ownership of Intellectual Property and Equipment; Licenses.

    5.1. Client Content. Client shall retain all right, title, and interest, including, without limitation, all copyrights, trademarks, patents, trade secrets, and any other proprietary rights, in the Client Content. Client assumes sole responsibility for the accuracy of any Client Content or other materials provided to Company for either authoring or hosting. Client hereby grants Company a non-exclusive, royalty-free license for the term of this Agreement to use, copy, modify, adapt, perform and display the Client Content solely as necessary to fulfill its obligations pursuant to this Agreement. Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason whatsoever, all rights granted to Company pursuant to this Section immediately revert to Client.

    5.2. Company Equipment. Company retains all rights to the Hosting Services and any computer hardware, software, telecommunications or other equipment, including the Host Server, used to provide the Hosting Services (collectively, the “Company Equipment”). At no time shall Client have any ownership, property, or any other rights in, nor file any lien on, any of the Hosting Services or the Company equipment.

    6. Confidentiality. Neither party shall disclose to any person or entity, directly or indirectly, without the prior written approval of the other, any confidential information relating to the other party obtained by virtue of this Agreement, except on a confidential basis to its business, legal and financial advisors or as required to be disclosed under applicable law or by legal process. “Confidential Information” shall include, but not be limited to software, technical processes and formulas, source or object code, product designs, sales cost and other unpublished financial information, product and business plans, advertising revenues, usage rates, advertising relationships, projections, marketing data, and the terms of this Agreement. Confidential information does not include any information that is (i) generally known or available to the public through no act of the receiving party, (ii) already known to the receiving party at the time of receiving the confidential information, (iii) independently developed by the receiving party, or (iv) furnished to the receiving party by a third party with the right to do so.

    7. Billing and Payment.

    7.1. Annual Fee; Monthly Fee; Term. Client will be invoiced on an annual basis the "Annual Fee" of $400 OR on a monthly basis the “Monthly Fee” of $34/month for the Hosting Services, unless otherwise indicated on the invoice, and payment of such fees will be due within 5 days of the date of each invoice, unless otherwise stated. The Term of this Agreement shall be for twelve (12) months. Client shall remit payments in such manner which Company from time to time directs (e.g., secure debit/credit card processing, electronic fund transfer, ACH).

    7.2. Late Payment. Client’s failure to pay any fees when due shall be considered a material breach of this Agreement, and Company may do any or all of the following: (i) assess late charges of the greater of one and one-half (1.5%) per month or the maximum allowable under applicable law; (ii) suspend performance of the services, and terminate the Agreement without penalty; or (iii) require future payments hereunder to be made in advance of services being rendered by Company. Any suspension or termination of services will not relieve client from paying past due fees plus late charges and in event of collection enforcement, client shall be liable for any costs associated with such collection, including, but not limited to, legal costs, attorneys’ fees, court costs, and collection agency fees.

    7.3. Taxes. Client shall pay or reimburse Company for all sales, use, transfer, privilege, excise, and all other taxes and all duties, whether international, national, state or local, however designated, which are levied or imposed by reason of the performance by Company under this Agreement; excluding, however, income taxes on profits which may be levied against Company.

    23. Relationship of the Parties. Nothing herein shall be construed as creating a partnership, an employment relationship, or an agency relationship between the parties, or as authorizing either party to act as agent for the other. Each party shall maintain its separate identity.

    26. Counterparts; Fax. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. Executed copies of this Agreement may be delivered by fax or other electronic transmission.
