will be indecipherable, and data visibly transmitted. DMD Studio, Inc. makes no claims or warranties regarding the viability,

use, you assume any risks that the encryption may be decipherable.

You agree that the DMD Studio, Inc. web hosting service is not transferable. Whoever activates and pays for the account is
responsible for that account.
6. ECPA NOTICE
DMD Studio, Inc. reserves the right to monitor any and all communications through or with our facilities. You agree that
DMD Studio, Inc. is not considered a "secure communications medium" for the purposes of the ECPA, and that no expectation
of privacy is afforded.
7. ACCOUNTING:
DMD Studio, Inc.' billing cycle begins when you receive an e-mail
confirming that your website has become available for access over
the Internet. The first month (and all months of service) is payable
in advance, including any set up fees. Thereafter, your credit card
will be charged 1-5 days prior to the account becoming due.
If, the account is not paid within 5 days after payment is due, access to the account will be blocked and the web site will
be taken offline. No data will be deleted, however, no backup of it will be provided (it is the user's responsibility to
have a local copy of his/her web site) unless a backup restoration fee of $35 is provided.
Any such termination or interruption does not relieve you from paying the overdue amount plus any interest, and in the event
of collection enforcement, you shall be liable for any costs associated with such collection, including legal costs,
attorney fees, court costs, or collection agency fees. Any returned checks due to insufficient funds and credit card
charge backs are subject to a $35.00 fee, and will place your account in default and service will be terminated immediately.
An email announcing your next payment date will be sent to the contact email addresses you provide to DMD Studio, Inc. (via the
order process or the control panel's email section). It is not DMD Studio, Inc's responsibility if you do not receive or read
that email due to any circumstances beyond our control. Several emails are sent on different dates to make sure you receive it.
An example: if you opened your account on March 18th, your account becomes due on April 18th if you paid for one month of
service, with your payment date being April 13rd.
DMD Studio, Inc. reserves the right to change the rate of this service by giving thirty (30) days notice prior to the effective
date of the new rate. You may cancel this Agreement by providing thirty (30) days prior written notice to DMD Studio, Inc..
DMD Studio, Inc. reserves the right to modify these policies at any time. All clients will be notified of such changes before they

log in, and delete/steal your data), hardware/software/human error, or a server security breach. DMD Studio, Inc. is *very*
strict about server security and it is something we monitor constantly. We are also very good at maintaining hardware
in optimum conditions thanks to our years of extensive experience in the server hardware industry.
WARNING
DMD Studio, Inc. is not responsible for any losses caused by the termination of an account.
FACT OF LIFE: most web hosts pay no attention to server security and constantly have security breaches. We know this
due to experience with other web hosts and their systems (specially with major web hosts). Most don't apply security
patches and use default operating system installations (!!!). Some leave ports open, unnecessary services running, etc.
This is not the case with DMD Studio, Inc.. However, we can't guarantee 100% fool proof security (actually, no one can
guarantee you such a thing) since, as you might know, security bugs constantly appear on all operating systems before
solutions to them are available.
DMD Studio, Inc. reserves the right to modify these policies at any time. All clients will be notified of such changes before
they take effect. We are not responsible for any typographical or translation error.
