Any changes or modification will be effective upon posting of the revisions on the Web site (the "Site"). We will post a notice of such changes or modifications to this Agreement or the Addendum on the Site for 30 days. Pacific Online may post changes or modifications to referenced Acceptable Use Policies without notice to you. Your continued use of Services following posting of any changes or modifications will constitute your acceptance of such changes or modifications.
1. Term and Payment for Services

This Agreement shall be for successive one month terms, automatically renewed each month unless cancelled by you by notice given and received at least two days before the your renewal date. Any notice of termination will be effective at the end of the current prepaid period.1.2. Default and Cure. In the event that either party hereto defaults in the performance of any of its material duties or obligations under this Agreement, including failure to make any payments due under this Agreement, and such default is not cured within 15 days after written notice is given to the defaulting party specifying the default, then the party not in default, after given written notice (including by email) thereof to the defaulting party, may terminate this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, Pacific Online may terminate this Agreement immediately if it determines, in good faith, that the customer has violated Pacific Online's Acceptable Usage Policy.
1.3. Charges. You agree to pay for all charges attributable to your use of the Services at the then current Pacific Online prices, which shall be exclusive of any applicable taxes. You are responsible for the payment of all federal, provincial, state and local sales, use, value added, goods and services, excise, duty and any other taxes assessed with respect to the Services, other than taxes based on Pacific Online's net income.
1.4. Payment. Upon entering this Agreement, you must choose to pay either by cheque or direct charge to a credit card. If you choose to pay by credit card upon registering for the Services, you thereby authorize Pacific Online to charge your credit card to pay for any charges that may apply to your account. You agree that Pacific Online may accumulate any supplemental charges, incurred by you in your use of the Services ("Supplemental Charges") until your monthly bill date and then charge your account. You must notify Pacific Online of any changes to your card account (including, without limitation, applicable account number or cancellation or expiration of the account), your billing address, or any information that may prohibit Pacific Online from charging your account. If you fail to pay any fees and taxes within five days from applicable due date for credit card or invoice payments, late charges of the lesser of 1.5% per month or the maximum allowable under applicable law shall also become payable by you to Pacific Online. In addition, your failure to fully pay any fees and taxes within seven days after the applicable due date will be deemed a material breach of this Agreement, justifying Pacific Online's suspension of its performance of the Services and/or termination of this Agreement. You are responsible for any fees associated with reinstatement of Services. Any such suspension or termination would not relieve you from paying past due fees plus interest. In the event of collection enforcement, you will be liable for any costs associated with such collection, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, court costs and collection agency fees. If any cheque is returned for insufficient funds, Pacific Online may impose a processing charge of $25.

Pacific Online will make no effort to validate any Customer Material for operability, stability, content, correctness or usability. If any Customer Material is not "server-ready", Pacific Online has the option at any time to reject this material. Pacific Online will notify you of its refusal of the material and afford you the opportunity to amend or modify the material to satisfy the needs and requirements of Pacific Online. If any Customer Material interrupts or interferes in any way with the servers on which it is hosted, Pacific Online has the option of taking down the site without prior notice to you.

Customer Support: Acceptable Use Policy
Reliability of Information on the Web. The fact that that no one party owns or controls the Internet accounts for much of its openness and value, but it also places a high premium on the judgment and responsibility of those who use the Internet, both in the information they acquire and in the information they disseminate to others. When customers obtain information through the Internet, they must keep in mind that Pacific Online cannot monitor, verify, warrant or vouch for the accuracy and quality of the information that subscribers may acquire. For this reason, the subscriber must exercise his or her best judgment in relying on information obtained from the Internet, and also should be aware that some material posted to the Internet is sexually explicit or otherwise offensive. Because Pacific Online cannot monitor or censor websites, and will not attempt to do so, Pacific Online cannot accept any responsibility for injury to subscribers that results from inaccurate, unsuitable, offensive or illegal Internet communications
User's Responsibilities. When subscribers disseminate information through the Internet, they also must keep in mind that Pacific Online does not review, edit, censor or take responsibility for any information its subscribers may create. When users place information on the Internet, they have the same liability as other authors for copyright infringement, defamation, and other harmful speech. Also, because the information they create is carried over Pacific Online's network and may reach a large number of people, including both subscribers and nonsubscribers of Pacific Online, subscribers' postings to the Internet may affect other subscribers and may harm Pacific Online's goodwill, business reputation, and operations. For these reasons, subscribers violate Pacific Online policy and the terms of service agreement when they, their customers, affiliates, or subsidiaries engage in the following prohibited activities:
- Spamming. Sending unsolicited bulk and/or commercial messages over the Internet (known as "spamming"). It is not only harmful because of its negative impact on consumer attitudes toward Pacific Online, but also because it can overload Pacific Online's network and disrupt service to Pacific Online subscribers. Also, maintaining an open SMTP relay is prohibited. When a complaint is received, Pacific Online has the discretion to determine from all of the evidence whether the email recipients were from an "opt-in" email list.
- Intellectual Property Violations. Engaging in any activity that infringes or misappropriates the intellectual property rights of others, including copyrights, trademarks, service marks, trade secrets, software piracy, and patents held by any third party, or engaging in activity that violates privacy, publicity, or other personal rights of others. Pacific Online is required by law to remove or block access to customer content upon receipt of a proper notice of copyright infringement. It is also Pacific Online's policy to terminate the privileges of customers who commit repeat violations of copyright laws.
- Obscene Speech or Materials. Using Pacific Online's network to advertise, transmit, store, post, display or otherwise make available any speech or material that is, under law, pornographic or obscene. Pacific Online is required by law to notify law enforcement agencies when it becomes aware of the presence of child pornography on or being transmitted through Pacific Online's network.
- Defamatory or Abusive Language. Using Pacific Online's network as a means to transmit or post defamatory, harassing, abusive, or threatening language. Forging of Headers. Forging or misrepresenting message headers, whether in whole or in part, to mask the originator of the message.
- Illegal or Unauthorized Access to Other Computers or Networks. Accessing illegally or without authorization computers, accounts, or networks belonging to another party, or attempting to penetrate security measures of another individual's system (often known as "hacking"). Also, any activity that might be used as a precursor to an attempted system penetration (i.e. port scan, stealth scan, or other information gathering activity).
- Distribution of Internet Viruses, Worms, Trojan Horses, or Other Destructive Activities. Distributing information regarding the creation of and sending Internet viruses, worms, Trojan horses, pinging, flooding, mail bombing, or denial of service attacks. Also, activities that disrupt the use of or interfere with the ability of others to effectively use the network or any connected network, system, service, or equipment.
- Facilitating a Violation of this AUP. Advertising, transmitting, or otherwise making available any software, program, product, or service that is designed to violate this AUP or the AUP of any other Internet Service Provider, which includes the facilitation of the means to spam, unsolicited bulk or consumer email, initiation of pinging, flooding, mail bombing, denial of service attacks and piracy of software. Export Control Violations. Exporting encryption software over the Internet or otherwise, to points outside the United States.
- Usenet Groups. Pacific Online reserves the right not to accept postings from newsgroups where we have actual knowledge that the content of the newsgroup violates the AUP.
- Other Illegal Activities. Engaging in activities that are determined to be illegal, including advertising, transmitting, or otherwise making available ponzi schemes, pyramid schemes, fraudulently charging credit cards, and pirating software.
- Other Activities. Engaging in activities, whether lawful or unlawful, that Pacific Online determines to be harmful to its subscribers, operations, reputation, goodwill, or customer relations.
The primary responsibility for avoiding the harmful activities just described rests with you. Pacific Online will not, as an ordinary practice, monitor the communications of its subscribers to ensure that they comply with Pacific Online policy or applicable law. When Pacific Online becomes aware of harmful activities, however, it may take any action to stop the harmful activity, including but not limited to, removing information, shutting down a web site, implementing screening software designed to block offending transmissions, denying access to the Internet, or take any other action it deems appropriate.
