This agreement represents the complete agreement and understanding
between Web Team Professionals, Inc. ("Web Team") and the account holder ("Customer") and
supersedes any other written or oral agreement. Upon notice published online via
Web Team's web site, Web Team may modify these terms and conditions, amplify them,
and/or modify the prices, as well as discontinue or change services
offered.
If you do not agree to these terms and conditions, please notify
our Billing Department immediately at 508-594-0023 so we can initiate a
closure of your account. USE OF YOUR ACCOUNT shall constitute your approval.
- Services provided to the Customer by Web Team may only be used
for lawful purposes. Transmission or publication of any information, data or material
in violation of any U.S. Federal or state regulation or law is prohibited. This
includes, but is not limited to, material protected by copyright, trade secret, or
any other statute, threatening material or obscene material. Web Team reserves the
right to remove any such materials will be removed at any time upon receiving a
complaint and or notice of copyright infringement.
- Web Team Professionals, Inc. has zero tolerance for UBE
(unsolicited bulk email), also know as UCE (unsolicited commercial email) or
"spam". This policy protects our customers as well as the Internet community from
the negative effects of "spam" related activity. The transmission of unsolicited
bulk email is expressly prohibited, whether or not it overloads the services or
disrupts service to Web Team's customers. Web Team defines UBE as unsolicited broadcast
or commercial email that is sent to an address or addresses that do not affirmatively
and verifiably request such material from that sender. This does not include messages
sent to addresses obtained through a legitimate "opt-in" mailing list. Customers may
be asked to produce records that verify that permission was obtained from a recipient
before a mailing was sent. Web Team reserves the right to determine, in its sole and
absolute discretion, whether email recipients were from an opt-in email list.
Customers having questions regarding the transmission of commercial emails to mailing
lists should contact
support@webteampros.com
BEFORE sending any such messages. Valid complaints received by Web Team will be
forwarded to customer for a response and resolution. If within twenty-four (24) hours
there is no response, Web Team may block traffic to and from the customer's web site
and email account(s) until the problem is resolved and preventative measures have
been implemented to prevent the violation from recurring. All users are responsible
for maintaining a working email contact and updating that information with Web Team
when it changes. Violations of this policy will result in suspension or termination
of the customer's account, and may result in Web Team seeking other legal remedies
against the customer.
- Customer agrees not to transmit, promote, or otherwise make
available any software, product or service that is either illegal or designed to
violate this Agreement. Such software, products or services include, but are not
limited to, programs designed to send unsolicited advertisements (i.e. "spamware")
and services which send unsolicited advertisements.
- Customers shall not forge, misrepresent, omit, or delete email
message headers, return mailing information and/or Internet protocol addresses to
conceal or misidentify the origin of a message.
- Customers shall not transmit any communication where the
meaning of the message, or its transmission or distribution, would violate any
applicable law or regulation or would likely be offensive to the recipient thereof.
No message may be mass distributed, "broadcast," or otherwise sent on an intrusive
basis to any Web Team user or to any directly or indirectly attached network. Use of
Web Team's connection in a manner that is disruptive, damaging, unlawful, offensive, or
intrusive as determined by Web Team shall be considered a breach of this Policy and may
result in cancellation of service. This prohibition extends to sending of unsolicited
mass mailings from another service which in any way implicates the use of Web Team's
service, Web Team's equipment or any site hosted on any Web Team network.
- Web Team makes no warranties of any kind, whether expressed or
implied, for the service it is providing. Web Team also disclaims any warranty of
merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. Web Team will not be responsible

non-deliveries, misdeliveries, or service interruptions caused by its own negligence,
subscriber's errors or omissions, or due to the fault of third parties.

indemnify Web Team from any liability, claim, loss, damage or expense arising out of
the indemnifying party's breach or violation of any covenant contained in this Policy
and resulting from the Customer's use of the service.
- Web Team reserves the right to cancel service for any reason
without prior notice. In case of cancellation, unused fees may or may not be returned
to the subscriber on a pro-rata basis, solely at Web Team's discretion. Fees for setup

If a customer re-registers after Web Team's cancellation of the account without

paid to date regardless of whether service has been rendered will be forfeited.
Additionally, any amounts due will be immediately payable.
