The TOS may be changed from time to time at the discretion of the Business. Subscriber understands that change to the AUP by the Business shall not be grounds for nonpayment. Centrix Web Hosting, LLC is the owner of FrontServe.com and OPHosting.net.

Illegal Activities: The TOS specifically prohibits the use of our Services for illegal activities. Therefore, Subscriber agrees that the Business may disclose any and all subscriber information including assigned Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, account history, account use, etc. to any law enforcement or government agent who makes a written request without further consent or notification to the client. In addition Centrix Web Hosting, LLC shall have the right to terminate all Service set forth in this Agreement.

Rates: Subscriber acknowledges that the nature of the Service furnished and the initial rates and charges have been communicated to Subscriber. Subscriber is aware that the Business may prospectively change the specified rates and hosting accounts from time to time on its Web site. Any Subscriber who has signed up at a certain monthly pricing rate and hosting specification size will remain on that pricing/specification for a time period of at least six months from signup. Of course, you may upgrade to a new hosting offer during this time, if required. Our advertised hosting plans may increase or decrease in price at anytime depending on the current market.

Payment: Establishment of this Service is dependent upon receipt by the Business of payment of stated charges. Subsequent payments are due on the anniversary date of the month depending of course on how often the account is billed, i.e. the plan billing schedule. The above applies to all hosting accounts/services provided by Centrix Web Hosting, LLC.

Payments & Fees: Service will be interrupted on accounts that reach seven days past due without a response from that client with an explanation of the billing problem (each case will be evaluated and this period could be as long as thirty days without interruption) Accounts that are not collectable by Centrix Web Hosting, LLC may be turned over to an outside collection agency for collection. If your account is turned over for collection, you agree to pay the Business a "Processing and Collection" Fee of not less than $5.00 USD and no more than $50.00 USD.

Refund & Disputes: If during the first thirty (30) days as a Centrix Web Hosting, LLC Subscriber, we do not provide the Services we offer to a satisfactory level of uptime, you can cancel your account and we will refund your money in full for that month's Service if the reason is VALID. This constitutes our "money back" guarantee. Not being bothered to use a hosting account or being unable to change your domain name servers (DNS) on your domain name will not be considered valid reasons for a refund. Basically refunds will ONLY be given for a sub standard percentage of uptime, customer support or server performance provided by us. Note: Any domain name purchased at our site is final. Domain registrations will not be refunded.

Failure to Pay: The Business may temporarily deny Service or terminate this Agreement upon the failure of Subscriber to pay charges when due. Such termination or denial will not relieve Subscriber of responsibility for the payment of all accrued charges, plus any collection fees involved.

However, certain discounts may be applied to other Service types Business provides on a case-by-case basis. All accounts canceled will receive a cancellation confirmation e-mail within twenty-four (24) to forty-eight (48) hours.
