1. Services
1.1 MillerWeb offers a number of standard and customized shared and dedicated web hosting plans as published on the MillerWeb website for the particular brand of Service offered by MillerWeb. You may also purchase optional add-ons. Subject to these Terms of Service and during the term of this Agreement, MillerWeb agrees to provide to you the Services you select during the Sign-up Process.

1.2 At your request, and subject to your agreement during the ordering process to the applicable registration agreement established by third parties who provide domain name registration services to MillerWeb and the payment of applicable fees, additional Services that you purchase from MillerWeb may include acquisition and registration of a second-level domain name on your behalf. You hereby appoint MillerWeb and third parties who provide domain name registration services to MillerWeb as your agents for the registration and ongoing administration of domain names on your behalf and you authorize MillerWeb and third parties who provide domain name registration services to MillerWeb to select and issue binding instructions to domain name registrars and registries used to acquire, register and administer domain names on your behalf. MillerWeb provides this Service as a convenience to you only and you hereby waive any and all claims that you may have, or which may later arise, against MillerWeb or such third party provider for any and all damages, losses, claims or expenses arising out of or related to the registration and/or use of such domain name. In addition, MillerWeb reserves the right, in MillerWeb's sole discretion, to refuse to register any domain name requested by you, and to discontinue the use of any domain name requested by you.
1.3 MillerWeb offers domain name registration services through an accredited registrar with the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN). Currently, MillerWeb works with an ICANN accredited registrar, to provide these services to its customers. Upon MillerWeb providing your domain name registration services and your payment of applicable fees, you hereby agree to the terms and conditions of MillerWeb's Services Agreement, as applicable, and in the case of conflict you agree to follow the terms of MillerWeb's Service Agreement, and the following terms and conditions applicable to all MillerWeb Design's Brand domain name registration services:
You acknowledge and agree that MillerWeb cannot guarantee that you will obtain a desired domain name registration, even if an inquiry indicates that a domain name is available at the time of your application for same. You represent that, to the best of the your knowledge and belief, neither the registration of the domain name nor the manner in which it is directly or indirectly to be used, infringes upon the legal rights of a third party and further, that the domain name is not being registered for nor shall it at any time whatsoever be used for any unlawful purpose.
You acknowledge that registering or reserving a domain name does not guarantee immunity from objection, challenge, suspension, cancellation, transfer or revocation of that domain name by MillerWeb, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), government bodies, or third parties.
You acknowledge and agree to submit to proceedings under ICANN's Uniform Domain Dispute Policy ("UDRP") http://www.icann.org/dndr/udrp/policy.htm and comply with all other requirements set forth by ICANN, applicable registries, governing bodies, and agencies providing enforceable law, rules, and policies for domain name registrants. You agree that in the event a domain name dispute arises with any third party, you will indemnify and hold us harmless pursuant to the terms and conditions contained in the applicable policy. If MillerWeb is notified that a complaint has been filed with a judicial or administrative body regarding your domain name, MillerWeb may, at its sole discretion, suspend your ability to use your domain name or to make modifications to your registration records until (i) MillerWeb is directed to do so by the judicial or administrative body, or (ii) MillerWeb receives notification by you and the other party contesting your domain that the dispute has been settled.
Furthermore, you agree that if you are subject to litigation regarding your registration or use of your domain name, MillerWeb may deposit control of your registration record into the registry of the judicial body by supplying a party with a registrar certificate from us.
The person named as Registrant in the required "Whois" database of registered domain names managed by all registrars shall be the registered name holder. The person named as Administrative contact at the time the controlling Account Identifier and Password are secured, shall be deemed the designate of the Registrant with the authority to manage the domain name. You agree that prior to transferring ownership of your domain name to another person (the "Transferee") you shall require the Transferee to agree, in writing to be bound by all the terms and conditions of this Agreement. If the Transferee fails to be bound in a reasonable fashion (as determined by us in our sole discretion) to the terms and conditions in this Agreement, any such transfer will be null and void. MillerWeb will be listed as the Registrant, Administrative, Billing and Technical contacts of the domain name as long as web hosting and services are provided by MillerWeb. If in the event web hosting and services are terminated, MillerWeb will change the contact information over to you as long as the account is in good standing and has not been suspended or terminated by MillerWeb due to violation of the privacy, usage or services agreements, billing issues/disputes or other legal liens.
As part of the registration process, you are required to provide us certain information and to update us promptly as such information changes such that our records are current, complete and accurate at all times. You are obliged to provide us the following information:
Your name and postal address, e-mail address, and voice and fax (if available) telephone numbers, billing contact information (if different than, that of the account name holder);
The domain name being registered;
You agree and acknowledge that we may make your account registration information you provide available to ICANN, to the registry administrators, law enforcement agencies and to other third parties as applicable. You further agree and acknowledge that we may make publicly available, or directly available to third party vendors, some or all, of the account name registration information you provide, for purposes of inspection (such as through the Whois service) or other purposes as required or permitted by ICANN and applicable laws. You hereby irrevocably waive any and all claims and causes of action you have arising from such disclosure or use of your domain name registration by MillerWeb.
Your willful provision of inaccurate or unreliable information, your willful failure to promptly update information provided to us, or any failure to respond to inquiries by us addressed to the e-mail address of the account and billing contact appearing in our account information database with respect to a domain name concerning the accuracy of contact details associated with the registration shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement and be a basis for cancellation of the domain name registration at our discretion.
You acknowledge that MillerWeb provides domain name services subject to our third party's ICANN accreditation and are provided at MillerWeb's sole discretion. If MillerWeb for any reason ceases providing domain name services, your sole remedy shall be to transfer your domain name to another registrar.
You acknowledge, understand, and agree that MillerWeb may change or cease using any or all of the domain name registrars that MillerWeb works with to provide domain name registration services to you. In this regard, you further agree that MillerWeb may transfer your domain name from one registrar to another as designated at MillerWeb's sole discretion and that you will cooperate with MillerWeb in executing such transactions and that you will be bound by the applicable registration agreement of the succeeding registrar. You hereby expressly consent to, and shall make no claim against MillerWeb or the succeeding registrar relating to, MillerWeb or the succeeding registrar replacing itself as the administrative contact for the domain name(s) being transferred but solely for the purpose of facilitating such transfer only. MillerWeb will at all times remain the registrant of record (otherwise owner) of your domain name(s), subject to the terms of this Agreement as long as your web hosting & services are provided by MillerWeb.
You hereby expressly consent to MillerWeb sending you notices by email or other means for various matters, including, but not limited to, expiration of your domain name registration, promotional offers, billing issues, and incorrect account information. However, you acknowledge, understand, and agree that MillerWeb provides expiration notices as a courtesy only and is not obligated to provide them. You are solely responsible, and MillerWeb is not responsible in any way, for ensuring that your domain name is renewed or restored before expiration or deletion. Payment for renewals and registrations must be made prior to securing the domain name and/or renewal date of the domain name.
In consideration for providing additional optional services for which MillerWeb does not charge an additional fee, including, but not limited to, URL forwarding, email forwarding, free parking page, free website hosting, free email services, or other services which MillerWeb may introduce from time to time but for which there is not a separate fee ("Free Services"), you agree that, if you use such Free Services, MillerWeb may display advertising in conjunction therewith through the use of links, pop-up or pop-under browser windows, banner advertisements, audio or video steams, appendices to emails, or other similar advertising means, and that MillerWeb may aggregate related usage data by means of cookies and other similar means. You agree that said advertising may be for or include but is not limited to MillerWeb's Web site, MillerWeb product and service offerings, third-party Web sites, third-party product and service offerings, and/or commercial search engines. You agree that MillerWeb may change the content and/or appearance of, or disable, said advertising at any time, in its sole discretion, and without prior notice. You agree that from time to time MillerWeb may provide you with free or low-cost domain name(s) services ("Promotional Name(s)"). If MillerWeb does so, the services for the Promotional Name(s) will be placed in the same account as your other domain name(s) and you may be listed as the registrant, though MillerWeb may point the Promotional Name to IP address(es) of our choosing. If you want to assume control over the services provided to the Promotional Name, including the right to transfer or push the Promotional Name service to other registrars or other accounts or the ability to control the DNS settings for the Promotional Name, you must pay the promotional registration fee or renewal fee, if any, and agree to the terms of this Agreement with respect to such Promotional Name(s). If you do not want the Promotional Name services, you may request that you be removed as the account holder of such Promotional Names and MillerWeb or a third party designated by us will be listed as the domain name registrant.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, whether in this Agreement or any other agreement referenced herein, the following terms shall apply to you and you hereby agree to them:
Upon expiration of your domain name(s), and even if it is before deletion of the domain name in the applicable registry's database, you acknowledge that MillerWeb may direct the domain name to name-servers and IP address(es) designated by us, including, without limitation, to no IP address or to IP address(es) which host a parking page or a commercial search engine that may display advertisements, and you acknowledge that MillerWeb may either leave your Whois information intact or that MillerWeb may change the contact information in the Whois output for the expired domain name so that you are no longer the listed registrant of the expired domain name. If your domain name expires, you agree that you relinquish any proprietary claim you may have over such domain name.
Upon expiration of your domain name(s), you acknowledge that certain registry administrators may provide procedures or grace periods during which expired domain name registrations may be renewed. You acknowledge that you assume all risks and all consequences if you wait until close to or after the end of a domain name registration term to attempt to renew the registration. You acknowledge that MillerWeb, for any reason and in its sole discretion, may choose not to participate in a post-expiration renewal of a domain name and that MillerWeb shall not be liable therefore. You acknowledge that post-expiration renewal or redemption processes, if any, involve additional fees which MillerWeb may determine. You acknowledge and agree that expired domain names may be made available to be registered or re-registered to any party at any time.
You agree that upon expiration of your domain name, MillerWeb may, for a period of thirty (30) days (the "Expiry Period"), either i) remove the domain name from the zone of the top-level-domain (meaning that the domain name will no longer resolve), or ii) direct the domain to name-servers and IP address(es) of website(s) designated by us, including, without limitation, to IP address(es) which host a parking page or a commercial search engine that may display advertisements, or (iii) delete the domain name or transfer ownership of the domain name to a third party. If MillerWeb exercises its rights under this provision, you agree that you have abandoned the domain name and that you relinquish any and all rights that you may have had to the domain to MillerWeb.
After the Expiry Period, you agree that MillerWeb may, if MillerWeb has not already done so under its rights during the Expiry Period, either (i) delete the domain name at any time thereafter or (ii) pay the registry's registration fee or otherwise allow it to continue to be registered and that MillerWeb, or anyone designated by MillerWeb, may list itself or a third party as the registrant of the domain name in the Whois information and pointing the domain name to the name-server(s) and IP address(es) designated by MillerWeb or, (iii) put the domain name up for auction or otherwise sell the domain name, in which case you relinquish all rights and control over the domain name and related Services. If MillerWeb, or a party designated by MillerWeb, is named as the registrant for the domain name after the Expiry Period, the ability to redeem the Domain may be available to you for a period of thirty (30) days (the "Registrar Redemption Period") for a redemption fee equaling that charged for domain names that have been deleted and available for redemption at the registry. After the Registrar Redemption Period you agree that there will be no recourse for you to regain your domain name.
2. Fees and Payment Terms
2.1 MillerWeb may charge set up fees, recurring service fees, and other one-time fees for optional services and, if requested by you, fees for domain name registration services (collectively "Service Fees"). Unless otherwise specified in any written offer or promotion, the Service Fees published on the MillerWeb website for the particular brand of Service you ordered are applicable to all transactions between you and MillerWeb. MillerWeb may amend the Services and/or the Service Fees associated with any of the Services at any time and from time to time without notice to you.
2.2 All Service Fees are due according to the schedule published on the MillerWeb website for the particular brand of Services you ordered or, if not published, on the first day of the billing cycle. All Service Fees and other monetary payments must be made in U.S. Dollars. If you are not billed by invoice, you authorize MillerWeb to charge the credit card, debit card or bank account (whether via ACH service or otherwise) (your "Payment Process") that you provide to MillerWeb for payment of the Service Fees for Services you order before MillerWeb activates the Services. You further authorize MillerWeb to charge you according to your Payment Process for the amount of all subsequent periodic Service Fees (at MillerWeb's then-current rates) prior to the commencement of any renewal period for such Services as described in Section 3 of this Agreement and for the amount of all other fees and charges (at MillerWeb's then-current rates) as they become payable pursuant to this Agreement. Services Fees and all other fees and charges that become due during any renewal period will be charged according to your previous payment option and/or Payment Process. All Payment Process payments are deemed authorized by you and will be assessed in real time.
2.3 If MillerWeb does not receive payment from your Payment Processor (i.e., credit or debit card issuer or other financial institution), you agree to pay MillerWeb all amounts due upon demand. MillerWeb may charge you for a late payment fee equal to one point five percent (1.5%) on any overdue balance, or the maximum amount allowed by law if less, for each month or fraction of a month the overdue amount remains unpaid. MillerWeb may also charge you for an administrative fee for any returned checks or if your Payment Processor declines payment or if your account has been suspended/terminated for non-payment or billing issues/disputes. You agree to pay MillerWeb's collection costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, if MillerWeb is required to take action to collect any amounts that you fail to pay when due pursuant to this Agreement.
2.4 MillerWeb may, in its sole and exclusive discretion, immediately suspend or terminate your Services without notice to you if you fail to provide valid Payment Processor information or authorization or fail to pay for any Services when due. MillerWeb may charge a Seventy-Five Dollar ($75.00) fee to reinstate any Service that has been suspended or terminated.
2.5 MillerWeb may, in its sole and exclusive discretion, remove your account and all contents stored on MillerWeb's servers after 30 days suspension if the issue for the suspension is not resolved.

Also an account setup fee of Fifty Dollars ($50.00) will be charged to reinstate any account that was cancelled due to non-payment, suspension or termination. MillerWeb does not guarantee that previous account names will be available at the time of reinstatement.
2.6 There is a non-refundable registration fee for all new domains that you purchase through MillerWeb. MillerWeb may automatically pay this fee as well as all annual non-refundable renewal fees (both fees also "Service Fees") up to fifteen (15) days in advance of the renewal date on your behalf provided your account is active and current. These Service Fees will appear on your next billing statement unless prior arrangements are made with the MillerWeb customer service department. You agree that you are responsible for reimbursing MillerWeb for all Service Fees advanced on your behalf.
3. Term and Termination
3.1 The Agreement will continue for the term stated in during the Sign-up Process or, if no term is stated, on a month-to-month basis. The Agreement will automatically renew for successive terms, each equal in length to that of the initial term. Either party may terminate this Agreement effective at the end of the then current term, whether annual, month-to-month or some other fixed term, upon at least thirty (30) days notice prior to the end of the then current term and such termination will be effective upon expiration on the last day of the then current term. The termination of this Agreement will constitute the termination of all of your Services, except for domain name registration services provided by the applicable registrar. You acknowledge, understand, and agree that termination of this Agreement, your web hosting services or other Services with MillerWeb does not automatically terminate or affect your domain name or the registration agreement with the registrar of your domain name. You further acknowledge, understand, and agree that termination of your agreement with the registrar of your domain name does not automatically terminate your obligations under this Agreement, meaning charges may continue to accrue on your account, and that you must actively contact MillerWeb directly if you wish to terminate this Agreement in accordance hereunder.
3.2 If you breach any term of this Agreement including, but not limited to, Section 2 (Fees and Payment Terms) and Section 5 (Restrictions on Use), MillerWeb may, in its sole and exclusive discretion, suspend or terminate your Services immediately and without notice to you. Service Fees may continue to accrue on suspended accounts and you will continue to remain responsible for the payment of any Service Fees that accrue during the period of suspension.
3.3 If this agreement is terminated for any reason prior to the expiration of the initial term or any successive term, MillerWeb will not provide any refund or credit to you for any service fees that you paid in advance, by credit card or otherwise, and MillerWeb may, in addition, charge you an account administration fee of thirty-five dollars ($35.00). You authorize MillerWeb, in its sole and exclusive discretion, to charge your Payment Process or forward an invoice to you immediately upon the termination of this Agreement for the amount of any Service Fees that are then outstanding. You acknowledge, understand, and agree that such charges are for liquidated damages and not as penalties for early or unauthorized termination hereof.
4. Warranty Disclaimers and Limitations of Liability
You agree that the warranty disclaimers and limitations of liability provisions set forth in this section 4 are reasonable and are fundamental elements of the agreement between you and MillerWeb. You acknowledge that MillerWeb would not be able to provide the services on an economic basis without such disclaimers and limitations.
4.1 MillerWeb provides the services (including, but not limited to, any software, services or technology licensed from third party providers) and the licensed material (as defined in section 7.2 below) to you on an "as is" and "as available" basis. MillerWeb makes no express warranties of any kind and disclaims all implied warranties including, but not limited to, warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title and non-infringement regarding any services or any equipment that MillerWeb may provide to you or regarding the licensed material. MillerWeb does not warrant that the services, the licensed material or the use of either will be without interruption, error-free or free from viruses or other harmful components. MillerWeb makes no warranties as to the results that may be obtained from the use of the services or the licensed material or as to the accuracy, reliability or content of any information, services or merchandise contained in or provided through the services, the licensed material or the internet. MillerWeb is not liable, and expressly disclaims any liability, for the content of any data transferred either to or from you or stored by you or any of your customers via the services provided by MillerWeb. No oral advice or written information given by MillerWeb, its employees, representatives, agents, affiliates or contractors will create a warranty, express or implied, nor may you rely on any such advice or information. Some states (United States only) do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties. Consequently, the above exclusion may not apply to you to that limited extent. You agree that, if applicable law requires any warranties with respect to the services, the licensed material or any equipment that MillerWeb may provide to you, all such warranties will be limited in duration to ninety (90) days from the date the service commenced or the licensed material is installed.
4.2 You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless MillerWeb and its subsidiaries and affiliates from and against any and all liabilities, claims, losses, damages, costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees, related to or arising from: (i) your and your end users' use of the services and/or the licensed material; (ii) any violation of the AUP; (iii) any liabilities, claims, or expenses arising from your registration, attempt to register, maintenance, infringement, or protection of a domain name and the rights associated with such, (iv) any breach by you any provision of this agreement; and/or (v) any acts or omissions by you. (vi) MillerWeb Designs is not responsible for damages, losses, costs and expenses incurred by third party web designers or web design firms that use our services for their customers. The Billing Contact assigned for these services with MillerWeb Designs will still be held accountable for all Service Fees and other monetary payments.
4.3 Information obtained by you from the Internet may be inaccurate, offensive or in some cases illegal. MillerWeb has no control over information contained on the Internet and accepts no responsibility for any information that you may receive via the Internet.
4.4 You accept full responsibility to verify the truth and accuracy, legality and ownership of the information that you disseminate or display in connection with your use of the Services or obtain from the Internet.
4.5 You agree that if MillerWeb takes any corrective action under this Agreement in response to your or your end users' actions or failures to act, that corrective action may adversely affect you or your end users and you agree that MillerWeb shall have no liability to you or your end users due to any corrective action taken by MillerWeb.
4.6 MillerWeb strongly encourages you to back-up your data regularly. You agree that MillerWeb has no obligation to back-up any data related to your website unless MillerWeb expressly agrees otherwise in writing and you have currently paid for such back-up Services. You agree that you will regularly back-up your data whether or not MillerWeb has any obligation to do so. You further agree that your failure to back-up your data regularly will mitigate against any claim for damages you may bring against MillerWeb relating to any loss of your data.
4.7 The server MillerWeb provides for your dedicated hosting services is accessible only to you and is dedicated solely to your use. However, you acknowledge that MillerWeb often re-uses and/or recommissions its dedicated servers to accommodate changing client demands. While MillerWeb follows standard hard drive data cleansing procedures, you acknowledge that the server used to provide your dedicated hosting services may have been used to provide such services to other MillerWeb clients in the past, and may be used to provide such services to other MillerWeb clients in the future. Because of this, data or meta-data shadows may physically remain on the drive even after cleaning it, although the data cannot be accessed without performing extraordinary procedures, if at all. While unlikely, MillerWeb cannot completely ensure that your deleted data will not be accessible to future MillerWeb dedicated hosting customers who will use your server for dedicated hosting services. You agree to never recover or reconstruct, or attempt to recover or reconstruct, any data previously saved on any hard drive provided for your dedicated hosting services. You will be solely responsible for any damages or losses to MillerWeb, and will indemnify MillerWeb for any third party losses, resulting from a violation of this paragraph.
4.8 You agree that, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you will not under any circumstances including, but not limited to, negligence, hold MillerWeb or its licensors liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages whatsoever including, but not limited to, damages for loss of profits, cost savings, revenue, business, data or use, or any other pecuniary loss by you, any of your end users or any other third party. You agree that the foregoing limitations apply whether in an action in contract or tort or any other legal theory and apply even if MillerWeb has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Some jurisdictions do not allow the limitation or exclusion of liability for incidental or consequential damages; you agree that in those jurisdictions MillerWeb's liability will be limited to the extent permitted by law.
4.9 You agree that you will not hold MillerWeb or its licensors liable under any circumstance for any damages that you suffer that result from (i) the use of or inability to use the services or licensed material, (ii) mistakes, omissions, interruptions, deletion of files, loss or corruption of data and/or back-up data, failure to perform data back-up functions (other than those expressly agreed to by MillerWeb and currently paid for by you), errors, viruses, defects, delays in operation or transmission, non-deliveries, misdeliveries or any failure of performance, whether or not caused by MillerWeb's negligence, acts of god, any failure of MillerWeb's network or systems, theft, destruction or unauthorized access to MillerWeb's records, programs, equipment or services; (iii) your acts or omissions; or (iv) the acts or omissions of third parties.
4.10 The terms of this Section 4 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
5. Restrictions on Use

MillerWeb will monitor your bandwidth and disk usage. MillerWeb, in its sole and exclusive discretion, may immediately take corrective action, including, but not limited to, assessment of additional fees and suspension and/or termination of Services, in the event you exceed the Agreed Usage. You agree that MillerWeb will have no liability to you or any of your end users due to any corrective action that MillerWeb may take and that you will not be entitled to a refund of any fees paid in advance prior to the corrective action.
