Services can be ordered via Harrison Hosting’s website located at www.harrisonhosting.com, and any successor site thereto (the "Website"). This Agreement shall govern Services provided by Harrison Hosting to Customer, unless Harrison Hosting and Customer enter into a separate agreement intended to govern the provision of Services.
1.2. Customer: (a) agrees to be bound by this Agreement; (b) represents and warrants that, if Customer is an individual, Customer is 18 years old or older or, if Customer is an entity, that Customer is a corporation, partnership, or other legal entity duly formed (and incorporated if applicable) in good standing where required to do business with all legal authority and power to accept this Agreement; (c) agrees to provide true, accurate, current, and complete information during the registration process, including billing and payment-related information and other account information, and agrees to maintain and update this information to keep it true, accurate, current, and complete; and (d) represents and warrants that Customer has the power and authority to enter into and perform under this Agreement. If this Agreement or any future changes are unacceptable to Customer, Customer's sole remedy is to cancel the Services. IF CUSTOMER DOES NOT ACCEPT AND AGREE TO THIS AGREEMENT, CUSTOMER SHOULD NOT COMPLETE THE REGISTRATION PROCESS, ORDER SERVICES OR CONTINUE TO USE SERVICES, AS THE CASE MAY BE. IF CUSTOMER DOES NOT AGREE TO ABIDE BY THIS AGREEMENT, THEN SUCH CUSTOMER IS NOT PERMITTED TO USE THE SERVICES.
1.3. Harrison Hosting may periodically change, modify, or update this Agreement.

In Harrison Hosting's discretion, notice may also be provided by posting a notice in the Harrison Hosting support area, and/or by email notification made to the email indicated in Customer's account settings. Therefore, Customer needs to ensure that contact information in Customer's account settings is kept up to date. The changes, modifications or updates to this Agreement will become effective 30 days following the posting of the new version, or other notice that may be provided by Harrison Hosting. Continued use of the Services after such 30 day notice period will constitute Customer's acceptance of a new version of this Agreement. Customer should refer to this Agreement regularly to remain updated as to current terms of this Agreement. Customer agrees that Harrison Hosting may send Customer service-related or other notices by e-mail rather than by postal mail.
1.4. Customer agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Customer account, and to not share the account password, security question answers, or any other confidential information about Customer's account with others.
1.5. Customer acknowledges that Harrison Hosting may require access to Customer's servers for the performance of the Services and Customer hereby authorizes Harrison Hosting to access Customer's servers for such purposes.
1.6. The Infringement Policy, the Privacy Policy, and policies (such as the Acceptable Use Policy) posted on the Website, and any work orders that incorporate this Agreement by reference, are collectively referred to herein as "this Agreement".
Harrison Hosting provides the Services with the goal of promoting socially responsible content on the Internet. Accordingly, Harrison Hosting does not allow content that promotes intolerance of any race, religion, ethnicity, or other difference or that seeks to deny civil liberties or human rights, or advocates violence or physical harm to others. This description is not all inclusive, but serves to set the tone for Harrison Hosting's goals. Please see our Acceptable Use Policy posted on the Website for more information. Content or websites that are not deemed consistent with Harrison Hosting's objectives or that may result in liability or harm to Harrison Hosting, as determined in Harrison Hosting's sole discretion, may be immediately deactivated by Harrison Hosting without notice, or liability to Harrison Hosting of any kind. Harrison Hosting will determine the method, schedule, timing and scope of any actions undertaken to enforce such restrictions. In any given case, Harrison Hosting shall not be obligated to undertake enforcement actions, if Harrison Hosting in its sole discretion determines otherwise.
3.1. Customer agrees to pay for the Services that Customer orders. The fees may include setup fees, monthly fees, quarterly fees, annual fees, usage fees, web traffic fees, hourly fees, late fees, and other fees. Customer shall pay or otherwise be responsible for all federal, state, or local sales, use, excise, gross receipts, municipal fees, transfer, transaction, property, or similar taxes, fees, or surcharges imposed on, or with respect to, the Services under this Agreement.
3.2. If Customer has ordered a service on an automatic renewal basis (e.g., SSL certificates, domain name registrations, etc.), then Customer will be notified via email prior to the renewal dates. Failure of Customer to provide Harrison Hosting with notification of termination of the service with sufficient time prior to the renewal date for Harrison Hosting to cancel the service will result in a renewal of the service for a subsequent term.
3.3. All periodic payments are due on the account statement date or for other payments, when invoiced, or as otherwise may be agreed by Harrison Hosting. The account statement date is the anniversary (monthly, quarterly, annually or bi-annually) of the date the initial Services start date. Periodic payments are due in advance for the period covered.
3.4. If Customer provides Harrison Hosting credit or debit card or automatic bank withdrawal information (the "Payment Method"), Customer authorizes Harrison Hosting to automatically charge the Payment Method for all charges that apply to Customer's account. Charges will be posted to Customer's Payment Method without requiring additional authorization until such time that Customer cancels Customer's account or the applicable Service. Customer is responsible for updating, or notifying Harrison Hosting, of any changes to Customer's Payment Method (including, but not limited to card number, expiration date, billing address, or card status).
3.5. Customers not paying by an approved Payment Method agree to make payment of their balance due by no later than the account statement date, or for non-periodic and variable charges, within 10 days of the invoice date. Non-periodic and variable charges are billed monthly following the month in which the charges are incurred and may include charges for bandwidth, disk space, ecommerce transactions, hourly charges, and similar charges. Unless otherwise agreed, Customer shall pay in advance a deposit determined by Harrison Hosting for web design and development projects, with the balance paid upon completion, or prorated share monthly for projects extending beyond 30 days. Payment must be received by such due dates to avoid incurring late fees. Harrison Hosting does not mail paper invoices or statements. Statements can be viewed and printed through the Customer account settings.
3.6. Harrison Hosting may charge Customer interest on unpaid balances at the lesser of the rate of 1.5% per month or the maximum rate allowed by law, or, in Harrison Hosting's discretion, a charge of $5.00. Accounts 15 days overdue are subject to suspension of Service without notice until any overdue account has been made current by paying any and all overdue invoices. Time necessary for account restoration after suspension may vary. Harrison Hosting may use a third-party service to collect unpaid amounts and may charge Customer attorneys', collection, or other reasonable fees incurred to collect unpaid balances, and Customer consents to such charges.
3.7. If Customer disputes a charge, Customer must pay the whole amount to avoid service interruption and notify Harrison Hosting about the disputed amount. If Harrison Hosting validates Customer's claim, Customer's account will be credited with the validated amount. Harrison Hosting will not review or accept any billing error claims submitted more than sixty (60) days after disputed charges were incurred.
3.8. Customer specifically understands and agrees that for each "chargeback" Customer initiates to Customer's credit card for fees paid to Harrison Hosting that Customer will be liable to Harrison Hosting (and Harrison Hosting may collect from Customer) a "chargeback fee" in the amount of $39.00. Upon the occurrence of any chargeback, regardless of cause, Harrison Hosting may suspend Customer's account. Additionally, Customer will be charged a $25.00 fee for all returned checks. Harrison Hosting does not charge fees for accepting payment via domestic bank wire, however, international wire transfers may be assessed a $20.00 processing fee by an intermediary bank. In addition, Customer's issuing bank may also charge a fee for sending the wire. Please add these fees to the amount that Customer is sending to Harrison Hosting or the amount credited to Customer's account will be less than the intended payment.
3.9. Customer will be liable for all unfunded term commitments on Customer's account. For example, if Customer signed up for one (1) year of service and cancels the account (or the account is terminated) after five (5) months, the unpaid fees for the remainder of the term commitment will automatically accelerate and Customer will immediately become liable for all unpaid charges on Customer's account.
3.10. Charges for bundled Services will be "unbundled" if a portion of the bundle of Services is terminated.
3.11. Customer understands and agrees that Customer is responsible for any network bandwidth, memory over usage, or other overage charges Customer incurs for using the Services, even if such overages arise due to Customer's failure to protect Customer's password or account privacy.
3.12. If Customer wishes to reactivate a closed or suspended account, Customer must first pay Harrison Hosting any outstanding balance. A $50.00 fee will be assessed if Harrison Hosting restores data files to a reactivated account. Also see provisions relevant for backups in Section 15 here of.
3.13. 30-Day Money Back Guarantee: Harrison Hosting's shared, reseller and cloud hosting plans carry a 30-day unconditional money back guarantee. If Customer is not completely satisfied with such Harrison Hosting Services within the first 30 days, Customer will be given a full refund of the fees paid in advance (excluding setup fees) upon plan cancellation. The following services do not qualify for the 30-day money back guarantee: dedicated hosting plans, web design and development, marketing and social media services, and overage fees.
3.14. All prices are subject to change at any time upon prior notice.
3.15. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all payments, including pre-payments, are non-refundable.
4.1. Customers electing to change to a lower priced hosting plan on the same platform will be charged a $19.95 downgrade fee. There is no upgrade fee for upgrading to a higher priced plan, however, Customer will be charged any difference between the setup fee applicable to the new and former plans.
4.2. Hosting plans will automatically renew until a plan is cancelled. In order to cancel a Service, Customer should go to the cancel account link in the Customer account settings. Alternatively, Customer may contact Harrison Hosting's customer service representatives, Monday through Friday, 9:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. Pacific Time using contact information located on the Website. Cancellation requests must be received by Harrison Hosting a minimum of 30 days prior to the end of a billing cycle for all hosting plans. Cancellations submitted later than this time may result in automatic renewal of the hosting plan. Unless otherwise indicated as "end of term," Cancellations become effective on the day processed by Harrison Hosting. Harrison Hosting is unable to cancel an account effective for a future date, unless otherwise indicated as "end of term." Harrison Hosting will confirm the cancellation request when it is processed. If Customer does not receive a confirmation, please contact Harrison Hosting as soon as possible. If Harrison Hosting believes that a hosting plan is being mistakenly cancelled, or that the cancellation will result in consequences unforeseen by Customer, then Harrison Hosting may leave the hosting active open, notify Customer of the reason for keeping the hosting plan active, and charge Customer for the hosting plan while remaining active.
4.3. Account contacts, including the primary account contact, designated by Customer during registration, or as thereafter changed, are authorized to make changes to an account. Customer acknowledges and agrees that Harrison Hosting may rely for all purposes on authorizations issued by any account contact, and Customer waives any right of action against Harrison Hosting for complying with authorizations issued by the account contact. If an account is in dispute between multiple claimants, Harrison Hosting, may in its sole discretion, lock the account until agreement is reached between the claimants or Harrison Hosting receives an order of a court.
Harrison Hosting recognizes the importance of reliable web hosting services and offers a 99.9% uptime guarantee. Customer will receive a credit for the applicable portion of the hosting fees for any unannounced downtime in accordance with this Section, except when caused by a Force Majeure event, as defined in Section 21.7 hereof. Customer will receive a full day's credit if downtime in a given day exceeds 20 minutes. Customer will also receive a full day's credit if downtime in a given month exceeds 20 minutes (except where such credit is based upon 20 minutes of downtime in a given day, for which a separate credit is earned). For example, if there is 10 minutes of applicable downtime in each of three days in a given month Customer will receive a full day's credit. If there was 25 minutes of applicable downtime in a single day Customer will receive a full day's credit. If both situations occur in a given month Customer will receive 2 days credit. However, if there is only 25 minutes of downtime during a single day, then Customer will receive a full day's credit for that day, but not an additional credit for the month. In order to claim a credit Customer must open a support ticket.
6.1. Co-location Customers are responsible for obtaining their own insurance for their equipment that has been placed in the Harrison Hosting cabinet(s) at the Harrison Hosting uplink facility. Harrison Hosting or the uplink facility will not be held liable whatsoever for any damages, consequential or otherwise, to Customer's website, equipment, or business resulting from network downtime, network maintenance, reboots of equipment due to network maintenance, or otherwise. Customer will be responsible for Customer's actions or the actions of Customer's delegated representatives who may accidentally, negligently or intentionally cause physical or economic damage to Harrison Hosting equipment, services or facilities. IN THE EVENT OF ANY DAMAGE TO CUSTOMER'S CO-LOCATED SERVER, CUSTOMER AGREES THAT LIABILITY OF HARRISON HOSTING IS LIMITED TO REPLACEMENT OR REPAIR OF THE SERVER ONLY. Return of co-location equipment is subject to payment of all fees due to Harrison Hosting, and Customer grants Harrison Hosting a lien and security interest in such equipment as security for such payment.
6.2. Dedicated server Customers are responsible for maintaining, operating and troubleshooting software that a Customer has installed on a dedicated server, or that Harrison Hosting installed on Customer's behalf on a dedicated server. Software provided by Harrison Hosting under a software financing arrangement is the sole responsibility of Customer and is considered client-provided software. Harrison Hosting or the Harrison Hosting uplink facility will not be held liable whatsoever for any damages, consequential or otherwise, to Customer's website, software, or business resulting from software downtime, reboots of equipment, software maintenance, OS upgrades or patches that may interfere with software. Customer is responsible for damages, consequential or otherwise, to the server or to the Harrison Hosting network for any harm, unintentional or otherwise, due to Customer-provided software, including but is not limited to security breaches, attacks and viruses. Customer is responsible to maintain appropriate licensing for all Customer-provided software. ALL HARRISON HOSTING DEDICATED HOST CUSTOMERS MUST PROVIDE ACCESS TO THE SERVERS BY PROVIDING PASSWORD DISCLOSURE, FOR MAINTENANCE AND SECURITY PURPOSES. FAILURE TO PROVIDE ACCESS MAY RESULT IN IMMEDIATE SHUT DOWN OF THE SERVICE UNTIL HOST SERVER ACCESS IS PROVIDED.
Harrison Hosting has an international customer base. Therefore, given global time zones, there are no universally convenient times for performing scheduled maintenance on the Harrison Hosting servers. Harrison Hosting performs scheduled maintenance during hours between 10:00am and 6:00pm PST on Sundays when Harrison Hosting Administrative staff is readily available. In most cases, the performance of scheduled maintenance does not impact service and availability and Harrison Hosting makes all reasonable efforts to minimize any such impact on service and availability.
Harrison Hosting agrees to provide reasonable technical support by telephone or email to Customer during Harrison Hosting's normal technical support hours. Support is limited to the primary account contact only, and limited within the scope to basic web hosting services only.
Harrison Hosting may provide hosting Services which are designated as "unlimited" or "unmetered" which is to say they are not allocated a quota. However, web servers and networks have a finite amount of resources and therefore such Services are limited to those maximums as determined solely Harrison Hosting. Additionally, usage outside normal and necessary amounts may be considered abusive and is prohibited. This may include, but is not limited to, bandwidth, hard disk space, CPU and RAM. Please see our Acceptable Use Policy posted on the Website for more information.

Additionally, Harrison Hosting may provide certain background technology composed of computer programming/formatting code or operating instructions developed by or for Harrison Hosting to be used to host or operate a Customer website or a webserver in connection with a Customer website. Customer may use such background technology for the sole purpose of operating the website or webserver, and may not transfer or assign this right or the background technology. Customer may not duplicate or distribute any such background technology to any third party without the prior written consent of Harrison Hosting. All rights to such background technology not expressly granted to Customer hereunder are retained by Harrison Hosting.

17.3. Unless otherwise agreed in writing between the parties, both Harrison Hosting and Customer have the right to terminate web design and development projects for any reason at any time. Upon termination of a web design and development project, Customer will be responsible to pay for all applicable web design and development fees, and associated costs and expenses Harrison Hosting has incurred, or may incur as a result of such termination, through the termination date based upon the number of hours worked multiplied by Harrison Hosting's normal published hourly rate. If a web design and development project has been terminated by Harrison Hosting, for Harrison Hosting's convenience, Customer will receive a pro-rata refund for any amounts paid to Harrison Hosting for Services that has not been performed.

All Harrison Hosting Materials developed for Customer will be subject to the license grant set forth in Section 13.3 of this Agreement. In the event either party cancels a project, Harrison Hosting will deliver, via electronic means (FTP) all work for which Customer has paid.
17.4. Customer understands and agrees that upon termination of this Agreement Harrison Hosting has the right to immediately bar Customer's access to any and all content related to the Customer's website or account.

18.1. IN NO EVENT WILL HARRISON HOSTING'S LIABILITY TO CUSTOMER IN THE AGGREGATE FOR ANY AND ALL BREACHES, DEFAULTS, OR CLAIM OF LIABILITY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT EXCEED THE GREATER OF THE FEES PAID BY CUSTOMER TO HARRISON HOSTING DURING THE ONE (1) CALENDAR MONTH PERIOD PRECEDING THE DATE OF THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO SUCH CLAIM OF LIABILITY AND $50.00. IN NO EVENT WILL HARRISON HOSTING, ITS PARENTS, SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, MEMBERS, SHAREHOLDERS, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, CONTRACTORS OR EMPLOYEES BE LIABLE TO CUSTOMER UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES FOR ANY THIRD PARTY, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, INDIRECT, MULTIPLE, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF USE, INTERRUPTION OF BUSINESS OR LOSS OF PROFITS) ARISING OUT OF, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SERVICES WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, WARRANTY, NEGLIGENCE OR OTHER TORT, BREACH OF ANY STATUTORY DUTY, THE FAILURE OF ANY LIMITED OR EXCLUSIVE REMEDY TO ACHIEVE ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE GROUNDS, EVEN IF HARRISON HOSTING HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THESE LIMITATIONS ARE AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT AND WITHOUT SUCH LIMITATIONS HARRISON HOSTING WOULD NOT ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT. IF YOU ARE A CALIFORNIA RESIDENT, YOU WAIVE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542, WHICH SAYS: "A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH, IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR."
18.2. Depending upon what industry Customer is operating within or what type of data Customer processes or handles (e.g., medical or financial), there may be various security and related laws, regulations and standards with which Customer is obligated to comply, including, without limitation, HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability & Accountability Act), SOX (Sarbanes Oxley Act), (GLBA) Gramm Leach Bliley Act, HITECH (Health Information Technology for Economic & Clinical Health), and PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) (collectively, "Compliance Standards"). While Harrison Hosting may provide certain Services designed to assist Customer with compliance with certain Compliance Standards, actual compliance with Compliance Standards is solely Customer's responsibility and Harrison Hosting is not responsible for ensuring that Customer's systems operating in conjunction with the Services or Harrison Hosting equipment are compliant with the Compliance Standards. Additionally, the Compliance Standards include many features that are out of Harrison Hosting's control including, without limitation, Customer's network and business processes. ACCORDINGLY, HARRISON HOSTING DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS THAT THE SERVICES, EQUIPMENT, SYSTEMS, NETWORK OR PROCESSES ARE COMPLIANT WITH ANY COMPLIANCE STANDARD AND HARRISON HOSTING DOES NOT REPRESENT THAT HARRISON HOSTING WILL ACHIEVE SUCH COMPLIANCE IN THE FUTURE. IN ORDER TO DETERMINE AND VERIFY COMPLIANCE WITH ANY COMPLIANCE STANDARD, CUSTOMER IS ADVISED TO ARRANGE FOR A THIRD PARTY TO AUDIT THE SERVICES, EQUIPMENT, SYSTEMS, NETWORK AND PROCESSES, UPON TERMS TO BE MUTUALLY AGREED. IF BASED UPON ANY SUCH AUDIT CUSTOMER DESIRES THAT HARRISON HOSTING MAKE ADJUSTMENTS TO THE SERVICES, THE PARTIES WILL DETERMINE APPLICABLE TERMS FOR HARRISON HOSTING TO IMPLEMENT ANY SUCH ADJUSTMENTS.
18.3. Harrison Hosting takes standard and reasonable precautions to protect website files and data. However, as online services, the Services are inherently subject to security vulnerabilities. Accordingly, Harrison Hosting does not guaranty the security of the Services or any data and files. Harrison Hosting highly recommends and advises that Customer obtain insurance coverage for general liability and professional liability errors and omissions and cyber liability. CUSTOMER AGREES THAT HARRISON HOSTING IS NOT RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE FOR THE SECURITY OR LOSS OF CUSTOMER FILES AND DATA UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.
18.4. Customer shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Harrison Hosting from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, losses, damages, penalties, fines and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) brought or claimed by a third party arising out of or related to any of the following: (i) actual or alleged use of the Services in violation of this Agreement or applicable law by Customer or any users (including any actual or alleged infringement or misappropriation of third party intellectual property rights by the Customer Content or website or arising from data or other content posted or stored on the Services or the Customer website by Customer or its Users); (ii) any dispute between Customer and its customers, contractors or users; or (iii) the operation or use of any Customer website or any data or content contained therein or transmitted thereby (including any breach of any terms of use or service, or license or other agreements, of any third party service provider by Customer or that is caused by Customer). Harrison Hosting shall notify Customer of any indemnified claim under this Section and provide Customer at Customer's expense with information and cooperation as necessary for Customer to defend Harrison Hosting from such claim. Customer shall not settle any indemnified claim under this Section without the prior consent of Harrison Hosting, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.
18.5. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as creating a joint venture, partnership, agency, employment, franchise, or other relationship between Customer and Harrison Hosting. Also, neither party to this Agreement shall have the right, power or authority to create any obligations or duty, express or implied, on behalf of the other.
18.6. HARRISON HOSTING DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE FREE OF ERRORS, BE UNINTERRUPTED, OR WILL MEET CUSTOMER'S REQUIREMENTS. THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" BASIS AND HARRISON HOSTING EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, CONDITIONS, AND INDEMNITIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OR ANY OTHER WARRANTY ARISING FROM THE COURSE OF PERFORMANCE OR COURSE OF DEALING. CUSTOMER UNDERSTANDS AND AGREES THAT HARRISON HOSTING WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY TEMPORARY DELAY, OUTAGE, OR INTERRUPTION OF THE SERVICES, AND CUSTOMER HAS NOT ENTERED INTO THIS AGREEMENT IN RELIANCE UPON ANY WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION EXCEPT THOSE SPECIFICALLY SET FORTH HEREIN. ALL SERVICES PROVIDED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE DEEMED ACCEPTED WHEN DELIVERED. NO ONGOING WARRANTY OR SUPPORT IS INCLUDED WITH THE SERVICES UNLESS SPECIFICALLY PURCHASED BY CUSTOMER SEPARATELY.
18.7. UPON EXPRESS APPROVAL FROM HARRISON HOSTING, CUSTOMER SHALL BE PERMITTED TO RESELL HOSTING SERVICES.
