Communications reserves the right to change this Policy any time,
so please, check this page at least once a month or when in doubt.
Net-Force Communications strives to provide the best possible
service to all our customers, but we will not tolerate any unlawful
activity or abuse on our servers. We respect freedom of speech
and expression unless it is harmful to others. These brief guidelines
are imposed to protect you, other Net-Force Communications customers
and us against such harm.
1.
Payment Policies, Fees, Refunds and Terms of Agreement
Full payment is required before any hosting service is rendered,
which includes renewals. Prepayment is due each anniversary (one
month, one year) following the date the account was established.
Billing will continue until you cancel your hosting account. You
may cancel at anytime. As a policy, we do not offer credits or
refunds for hosting time already expended, unless it's within
the 30 day money back guarantee.
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).
This only applies to cancellation by the client. If cancellation
is done by Net-Force Communications due to restrictions violation,
there will be no refund. Net-Force Communications will only allow
for the discount if cancellation is not the fault of the client,
as determined by Net-Force Communications. All monetary transactions
are in $US dollars. Additional features can be added at any time.
Monthly feature prices are not prorated. Net-Force Communications
reserves the right to change prices at any time.
2.
Account Cancellation
You may cancel at anytime. To cancel your account, please contact
Customer Service at support@net-force.ca.
Notification of cancellation must be received at least five business
days prior to your cycle date, with the cycle date being the day
of the month you sign up, in order to avoid charges in full for
the next cycle. It is the Client's Responsibility to secure email
confirmation from Net-Force Communications that the account has
been cancelled. If the client has not yet received email confirmation
of account cancellation, then the account remains active, and
you will continue to be charged.
If Client has a balance due at the time of cancellation, this
balance must be paid in full. Cancellation does not absolve Client
of any outstanding financial obligations.

Traffic Policy
Net-Force Communications 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. Net-Force
Communications customers are discouraged from storing any files
that cause excessive traffic on Net-Force Communications servers.
Please contact Net-Force Communications Technical 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 Net-Force Communications
or any other Internet servers will result in immediate account
deactivation without prior notice. No refund is given in this
case.
All account plans come with a predetermined amount of traffic
allowance. We monitor all accounts and bill $3.00 for each gig
of traffic exceeded. You will NOT be charged for transfer that
you use beyond our generous data transfer limits without prior
notification. You can monitor your transfer at anytime in your
Control Panel.
9. Backups
The "Backup Manager" is included in each hosting plan
and client can use this tool to back up their files. We do not
back up client accounts, so in the event of loss of data you should
have your own backups.
10. Support Policy
It is the client's responsibility to have a good working knowledge
of aspects of their site's operation. Please do not expect the
Net-Force Communications support staff to teach you how to use
aspects of the tools at your disposal. You can post questions
like this into the General Discussion area of the forum and interact
with other Net-Force Communications members for help etc.

and Conditions at any time and without notice.
