Terms of Service

YottaServers Terms Of Service

Foreword

This Terms of Service (“TOS”) and the Acceptable Use Policy (“AUP”) of YottaServers, LLC., an Iowa Limited Liability Company, govern the purchase and use of Services, Servers, other Devices and IP Addresses of YottaServers (collectively “Services” or “Servers”), as described in the Service Schedule or other Order Form (“Service Schedule”) accepted by you (“You”, ”Customer”, or “User” as identified in the Service Schedule) and YottaServers. Acceptance of any terms or conditions different from those contained herein by YottaServers will not be granted by provision of service, but only by electronic or written signature of an manager of YottaServers. You must register and accept this TOS and the AUP in order to use the Services and/or Servers. YottaServers may modify any of the terms and conditions contained in this TOS and the AUP at any time, at its sole discretion. Any modifications are effective upon posting of the revisions on the YottaServers web site. Your continued use of the Services and/or Servers following YottaServers posting of any modifications constitutes your acceptance of the modifications. If you do not agree to the terms of any modification, do not continue to use the services and immediately notify YottaServers of your termination of this TOS in the manner described in the section below. YottaServers will notify you via the YottaServers alerts blog if any modifications have been posted to the Site.

By clicking on the “I accept” button below, and/or registering for and using the services, you acknowledge that you have read this TOS and the AUP, and agree to be bound by all terms and conditions of this TOS as well as all policies and guidelines of the AUP, which are incorporated herein.

Terms and Conditions

Term

The initial term of this TOS will be set forth in the Service Schedule, or if no term is specified in the Service Schedule, the initial term will be for one month (“Initial Term”) and will begin on the date the Services are first provided by YottaServers (the day of the month referred to as “Renewal Date”). This Agreement will be automatically renewed (the “Renewal Term”) at the end of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term (referred to collectively in this TOS as the “Term”) for a like Term unless you provide YottaServers with written notice of termination at least two days before the end of the Term. To provide your notice of termination, you must submit a cancellation ticket to the Billing department via ticketing system and fill out the corresponding cancellation form to initiate the cancellation of your service. All service cancellations require double confirmation by the customer to ensure appropriate cancellation of services.

Services, Charges and Invoicing

You will receive an electronic invoice from YottaServers that will include all charges for your use of the Services and/or Servers at the pricing agreed to in the written Service Schedule signed by you and YottaServers, and any other non-recurring charges at the then current rate (“Charges”). Nothing in any Service Schedule, including. but not limited to, permission to use space within a facility (i.e. colocation), will constitute or should be construed as a lease or grant of any other interest in real property to you. Provided that you are not in default under any Service Schedule or this TOS, you may request additional Services and/or Servers at YottaServers’ current rates which are provided at the sole discretion of Yottaservers.

All Charges are exclusive of taxes and other fees. You are responsible for paying all federal, state, and local sales, use, value added, excise duty and any other taxes or fees assessed with respect to the Charges, other than taxes based on YottaServers’ net income.

Your Service comes with a set bandwidth allotment defined in your Service Schedule. This represents the amount of bandwidth for each calendar month. If you exceed this allotment for any reason in any calendar month, even if you have cancelled service with YottaServers during that month, you will be charged overage bandwidth at a rate of $.50 per gigabyte. If any bandwidth overage has occurred at the end of a calendar month the overage charge will be added to your next bill. It is your responsibility to monitor your bandwidth usage and to pay for all overages. If you are a reseller, it is your responsibility to monitor the bandwidth usage of your client as you are solely responsible for any and all overages incurred by them. On your renewal date your bandwidth allotment is reset to zero and any unused bandwidth is not carried over.

Any paid backup service comes with a set data storage allotment. This represents the total amount of storage capacity allotted for each calendar month. If the allotment amount is exceeded, YottaServers will contact you via the ticketing system to notify you of the overage. To have your storage allocation increased, no action is required. YottaServers will automatically increase your allotted backup storage 72-hours after our initial notification to accommodate your increased storage needs. The increase will provide up to an additional 10GB of storage capacity beyond the then-current storage amount. If you do not want a storage allocation increase, you must notify YottaServers via a response to the ticket within 72-hours of receiving the notification and reduce your amount of data that is being backed up to a level below your original plan allotment. If the allotment amount is exceeded by more than 10GB, YottaServers will suspend the backup service, and contact you via the ticketing system to request authorization that the backup allotment be increased by the required amount. Backups will not resume until the allotment has been increased or an agreement has been reached on what to backup. If no response is received from you in ten business days YottaServers will cancel the backup service entirely and you will no longer be billed for it.

YottaServers will have the right at its sole discretion at any time to substitute certain Services or Servers, or the means of delivery of certain Services, provided to you under a Service Schedule with comparable Services or Servers. From time to time YottaServers may remove equipment from service due to age, irreparability, or other factors. Except in the event of an emergency, YottaServers will provide Customer with at least thirty (30) days’ notice before substituting any such Services or Servers.

YottaServers will have the right to invoice you for any Charges due under this TOS that it failed to invoice or collect at the time such Charges were owed upon discovery of the omitted Charges and you will pay such amounts as set forth in the following section.

Payment

You will pay all Charges for the first month of service and charges for any setup fees in advance on the first day of the Initial Term. You will pay all subsequent charges for Services in their entirety in advance on each Renewal Date of the service. You will pay for any non-recurring or usage fees. If you pay for the Services by credit or debit card or Paypal, you authorize YottaServers to charge your credit or debit card or Paypal to pay for any charges that may apply to your account. You have a specific obligation to immediately notify YottaServers of any changes to your credit or debit card account or Paypal information as well as any applicable account number or cancellation or expiration of the account, your billing address, or any information that may prohibit YottaServers from properly charging your account. In the event of a change to your credit or debit card that results in the failure to pay your fees for Services and applicable taxes when due, YottaServers shall have all rights as set forth in the Failure to Pay section below.

Refund and Disputes

All payments to YottaServers are non-refundable and include any applicable setup fees and subsequent charges regardless of usage. All overcharges or billing disputes must be reported within 30 days of the time that the dispute occurred. If you dispute a charge that, at YottaServers’ sole discretion, is a valid charge under the provisions of the Policies and Procedures, you will pay the applicable amount within seven business days after YottaServers confirms to you that the amounts were properly charged. If you were billed in error, YottaServers will issue a credit for the amount billed incorrectly within ten business days after it determines that an error has been made. Credits issued have no cash value and will be applied against current invoices or future services. If YottaServers determines you were billed in excess of 200% the correct charge YottaServers will refund the excess pay if the customer desires a refund instead of a credit.

Failure to Pay

Failure to fully pay your fees for Services and applicable taxes when due shall be a material breach of this TOS, justifying YottaServers to temporarily deny service or terminate this TOS. Charges not paid by the Due Date are subject to an interest rate that is the lower of 3% per month or the highest rate permitted under applicable law beginning on the third day after the Due Date until all past due amounts are fully paid. YottaServers may, at its sole discretion, suspend or terminate Services for non-payment of fees. Services interrupted or cancelled for non-payment are subject to a $25 suspension fee per server. All amounts due, including the suspension fee must be paid before services are reinstated. You are responsible for any costs that YottaServers incurs in enforcing collection, including reasonable attorney’s fees, court costs and collection agency fees.

Ownership

Access and Control Policy. When a new account is registered with or transferred to YottaServers or one of its affiliates, the process requires and results in the creation of the following within the records of YottaServers, in association with said new account:

  1. Name of registrant
  2. Email address
  3. User name
  4. Password
  5. Associated payment information
  • If a person contacts YottaServers and claims that he or she is entitled to access to an account registered with YottaServers or its affiliate but is without access (for reasons such as but not limited to forgotten password or forgotten user name, data loss or corruption on personal computer, improper lock out, and so forth), YottaServers will give access to the person who acceptably evidences he or she has all of the following:
  1. Name of the original registrant
  2. Email address of the original registrant
  3. The user name of the original registrant, if possible;
  4. The associated payment information of the original registrant
  5. Photo identification evidencing she or he is the rightful possessor and user of said credit card or payment medium

YottaServers will not give access and control to a claimant not meeting the above criteria unless YottaServers is served with a valid order of a court, agency, or appropriate Internet controlling entity such as Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (“ICANN”), requiring YottaServers to give such access and control to said claimant or unless there is submitted to YottaServers at 1211 Scott Ave. Waterloo IA 50701 a written statement duly signed by the original registrant of said account which is duly notarized, and in which said original registrant confirms that said claimant is entitled to access and/or control of the account, together with a written notarized statement duly signed by claimant which confirms claimant is entitled to access and control of said account and has read and agreed to these Terms of Service. Customer acknowledges and accepts that the foregoing access and control policies and procedures are the only way that notice can be given and changes can be affected regarding said access and/or control; and, further, that any other changes made directly by Customer or by others within the online records of YottaServers or of its affiliates shall not be deemed sufficient to give notice to YottaServers or its affiliates of any changes in said access or control.

  • Customer acknowledges and accepts said access and control policy and procedure, agrees not to bring any claim in the form of a lawsuit or otherwise against YottaServers arising out of its following said policy and procedure, agrees immediately to dismiss any claim so brought, and hereby releases YottaServers from all liability and all claims for damages or any other liability whatsoever that may arise out of YottaServers’ following said policy and procedure.

Disputing Site or Account Ownership.

Disputes sometimes arise between or among multiple persons claiming ownership of or rights in a site hosted by YottaServers or in an associated YottaServers account. YottaServers is not obligated to resolve any such disputes. If multiple persons claim ownership of or rights in a site hosted by YottaServers or in an associated YottaServers account, and, in YottaServers’ sole judgment, there is not certainty as to the ownership of or rights in said site or account, then YottaServers will, to the extent of its ability, notify said persons of the dispute and demand that said persons promptly, conclusively, and finally resolve the dispute in a manner which makes clear who the owner(s) and/or interest holder(s) is/are and in a manner which relieves YottaServers of all liability or obligations concerning the dispute. If the disputing persons fail so to resolve the dispute within what YottaServers, in its sole judgment, deems to be a reasonable time, then YottaServers, at its option and without any obligation to do so, may, in accordance with and subject to the laws of the State of Iowa, file an interpleader action in a court of competent jurisdiction within the State of Iowa for the purpose of allowing the contending persons to resolve said dispute and to reach certainty regarding ownership of or rights in said site and/or account. The person or persons conclusively and finally determined by the interpleader action to be the rightful owner(s) or interest holder(s) of said site and/or associated account shall be obligated to reimburse YottaServers for all of its expenses relative to said interpleader action including without limit all its court costs and reasonable attorney fees. All amounts owed to YottaServers under this section 5.03 shall be deemed due immediately upon 30 days after judgment or settlement is reached.

Transfer of Ownership.

YottaServers is not responsible to determine ownership of websites hosted by or accounts opened with YottaServers or its affiliates. By accessing YottaServers’ system, registering, or using any of the services provided by YottaServers, the Customer, or any other person so accessing, registering or using, hereby represents and warrants that the information provided in connection with said registration, including as well information concerning ownership of accounts, is true, accurate, and complete in each material detail. Any disputes arising regarding the ownership of any account opened with YottaServers or any of its affiliates are subject to the terms and conditions herein.
YottaServers will recognize a change of ownership of account(s) with YottaServers or its affiliates only in the event that at least one of the following occur:

  1. There is received by the Compliance Manager (Tim Hass) a written statement (in a form acceptable to YottaServers or applicable affiliate) containing the notarized signature of the original owner of the account, confirming that ownership of the account has been transferred to a person (claimant) claiming to own said account along with a written statement containing the notarized signature of the claimant confirming that she or he has acquired said ownership and, has read and agrees to be bound by these Terms of Service; or,
  2. YottaServers is served with a valid order of a court, agency, or appropriate internet controlling entity such as Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (“ICANN”), requiring YottaServers (or affiliate) to transfer such ownership to said claimant.

Customer acknowledges and accepts that the foregoing policies and procedures regarding transfer of ownership are the only way that notice can be given and changes can be affected regarding said transfer of ownership within YottaServers; and, further, that any other changes made directly by Customer or by others within the online records of YottaServers or of its affiliates shall not be deemed sufficient to give notice to YottaServers or its affiliates of any changes in said ownership.

Termination

This Agreement may be terminated:

  1. By you during any Term, without cause, by giving YottaServers no less than two days prior written notice.
  2. By YottaServers in the event of your material breach of this TOS

If you provide, in writing, your desire to cancel Service(s) or Server(s) 15 days or more in advance of the end of the current Term, YottaServers, at its sole discretion, may prorate your bill for your final Term to the amount of time the Service(s) or Server(s) are used during the final Term.

To provide your notice of termination, you must submit a cancellation ticket via the ticketing system and fill out the corresponding cancellation form to initiate the cancellation of your service(s) or server(s).
