This license shall terminate upon Subscriber's cancellation of the Services as set forth in Sections 3 and 4 of the User Agreement.

  6. USAGE POLICIES AND DEFINITIONS

    1. "UNLIMITED" USAGE POLICIES AND DEFINITIONS

      1. What "Unlimited" means

        PortoSpire does not set an arbitrary limit or cap on the amount of resources a single Subscriber can use. In good faith and subject to these Terms, PortoSpire makes every commercially reasonable effort to provide its Subscribers with all the storage and bandwidth resources needed to power their web sites successfully, as long as the Subscriber's use of the service complies with these Terms. By not setting limits on key resources, we are able to provide simple, consistent pricing to our Subscribers as they grow their websites. As a result, a typical website may experience periods of great popularity and resulting increased storage without experiencing any associated increase in hosting or maintenance charges.

      2. What "Unlimited" DOES NOT mean

        PortoSpire employs complex mechanisms to protect its Subscribers and systems from abuse. PortoSpire's offering of "unlimited" services is not intended to allow the actions of a single or few Subscribers to unfairly or adversely impact the experience of other Subscribers. PortoSpire's service is a shared hosting service, which means that multiple Subscriber web sites are hosted from the same server and share server resources. PortoSpire's service is designed to meet the typical needs of small business and home business website Subscribers in the United States. It is NOT intended to support the sustained demand of large enterprises, internationally based businesses, or non-typical applications better suited to a dedicated server. PortoSpire will make every commercially reasonable effort to provide additional resources to Subscribers who are using their website(s) consistent with these Terms, including moving Subscribers to newer and bigger shared servers as necessary. However, in order to ensure a consistent and quality experience for all Subscribers, PortoSpire does place automated safeguards to protect against any one site growing too quickly and adversely impacting the system until PortoSpire can evaluate said sites resource needs.

      3. Unlimited Hosting Space

        PortoSpire does not set arbitrary limits on the amount of disk space a Subscriber can use for the Subscriber's website, nor does PortoSpire charge additional fees based on an increased amount of storage used, provided the Subscriber's use of storage complies with these Terms. Please note, however, that the PortoSpire services are designed to host websites. PortoSpire does NOT provide unlimited space for online storage, backups, or archiving of electronic files, documents, log files, etc., and any such prohibited use of the Services will result in the termination of Subscriber's account, with or without notice. Accounts with a large number of files can have an adverse affect on server performance. PortoSpire may request that the number of files, or total database usage be reduced to ensure proper performance or request that the Subscriber switch use to an alternate hosting package, or may terminate the Subscriber's account, with or without notice.

      4. Unlimited File Transfer

        PortoSpire does not set arbitrary limits on the amount of visitor traffic a web site can receive or on the amount of content a Subscriber can upload to his/her/its website in a given month, nor does PortoSpire charge additional fees based on increased use of bandwidth, as long as the Subscriber's use of the Services complies with these Terms. In most cases, a Subscriber's web site will be able to support as much traffic as the Subscriber can legitimately acquire. However, PortoSpire reserves the right to limit processor time, bandwidth, processes, or memory in cases where it is necessary to prevent negatively impacting other Subscribers.

      5. Unlimited Domain Hosting

        PortoSpire does not set arbitrary limits on the number of domain names a Subscriber can associate with the Subscriber's account.

  7. PROPERTY RIGHTS

    These Terms do not give Subscriber any rights in PortoSpire intellectual property or technology. PortoSpire and related trademarks and logos are the exclusive property of PortoSpire. PortoSpire and Subscriber agree that neither will, directly or indirectly, reverse engineer or decompile object code or execution code, nor otherwise seek to obtain source code or trade secrets of the other party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall bar PortoSpire from using any knowledge, information or skills that are generally known or that can be learned or otherwise acquired in the normal course of business.

  8. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY

    YOU, THE SUBSCRIBER, ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE SERVICES AND THE SOFTWARE ARE PROVIDED "AS IS, AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. PORTOSPIRE HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY WARRANTY OR CONDITION WITH RESPECT TO THE QUALITY, PERFORMANCE OR FUNCTIONALITY OF THE SERVICES AND SOFTWARE, OR WITH RESPECT TO THE QUALITY OR ACCURACY OF ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM OR AVAILABLE THROUGH USE OF THE SERVICES AND SOFTWARE, OR THAT THE SERVICES AND SOFTWARE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE OR FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS. THE SERVICES AND SOFTWARE MAY CONTAIN ERRORS. NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION GIVEN BY PORTOSPIRE OR PORTOSPIRE'S REPRESENTATIVES INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, SUBSCRIBER SUPPORT REPRESENTATIVES, SHALL CREATE A WARRANTY. PORTOSPIRE DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF QUIET ENJOYMENT AND NON-INFRINGEMENT AND ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, TITLE, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, MERCHANTABILITY OF COMPUTER PROGRAMS AND CONTENT. PORTOSPIRE DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT USERS WILL BE ABLE TO USE THE SERVICES AT TIMES OR LOCATIONS OF THEIR CHOOSING. PORTOSPIRE DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES ARE COMPATIBLE WITH ANY THIRD PARTY SERVICE OR SOFTWARE, EVEN IF SUCH THIRD PARTY CLAIMS, REPRESENTS OR WARRANTS THAT SUCH SERVICE OR SOFTWARE IS COMPATIBLE WITH ANY SERVICE OR PORTOSPIRE IN PARTICULAR.

  9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

    PORTOSPIRE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR NONPERFORMANCE OR DELAY IN PERFORMANCE CAUSED BY ANY REASON, WHETHER WITHIN OR OUTSIDE OF ITS CONTROL. IN NO EVENT SHALL PORTOSPIRE BE LIABLE UNDER CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, TORT, CONVERSION, COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT, TRADEMARK INFRINGEMENT, IP RIGHTS HOLDER INFRINGEMENT, STRICT LIABILITY OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOSS OF USE, LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF DATA OR INFORMATION OF ANY KIND OR LOSS OF BUSINESS GOODWILL OR OPPORTUNITY) WHETHER OR NOT PORTOSPIRE HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGES. PORTOSPIRE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR THE COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS, SERVICES OR TECHNOLOGY. PORTOSPIRE'S ENTIRE LIABILITY AND SUBSCRIBER'S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY WITH RESPECT TO ANY USE OF THE SERVICES IS THE CANCELLATION OF SUBSCRIBER'S ACCOUNT AS SET FORTH HEREIN. IN NO EVENT SHALL PORTOSPIRE'S LIABILITY TO YOU, THE SUBSCRIBER, EXCEED THE GREATER OF ONE DOLLAR ($1.00) OR ANY AMOUNTS ACTUALLY PAID IN CASH BY YOU, THE SUBSCRIBER, TO PORTOSPIRE FOR THE PRIOR ONE MONTH PERIOD. NO ACTION, REGARDLESS OF FORM, ARISING OUT OF THESE TERMS OR OUT OF THE SERVICES MAY BE BROUGHT BY YOU, THE SUBSCRIBER, MORE THAN ONE YEAR AFTER THE EVENT WHICH GAVE RISE TO THE CAUSE OF ACTION. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW A LIMITATION ON LIABILITY FOR NEGLIGENCE THAT CAUSES DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY AND, IN SUCH JURISDICTIONS, PORTOSPIRE'S LIABILITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

  10. INDEMNIFICATION

    You, the Subscriber, agree to defend, indemnify and hold PortoSpire, its affiliates and its sponsors, partners, other co-branders and the respective directors, officers and employees of each harmless from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, liabilities and costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs) arising out of or relating to your breach of any of these Terms or use by you or any third party of the Services, except to the extent the foregoing directly result from PortoSpire's own gross negligence or willful misconduct. PortoSpire reserves the right, at its own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, the Subscriber.

  11. MISCELLANEOUS

    1. Monitoring and Disclosures

      All activities occurring on, in, and/or via the Services or any website hosted by PortoSpire may be monitored, recorded, and examined by any authorized person, including law enforcement. In general, PortoSpire does not monitor its Subscribers' websites or activities to determine whether they are in compliance with these Terms. However, when and if PortoSpire becomes aware of any violation of these Terms, PortoSpire may take any lawful action, and in the event of illegal activity, will take action, to stop or correct such violation, including, but not limited to, shutting down a website, denying access to the Services or to the Internet via PortoSpire, and/or removing non-complying information. In addition, PortoSpire may take any lawful action against a Subscriber or a subscriber, patron, customer, invitee, visitor, or guest of such Subscriber because of the activities of such subscriber, patron, customer, invitee, visitor, or guest. PortoSpire reserves the right to take any such action even though such action may affect other subscribers, patrons, customers, invitees, visitors, or guests of the Subscriber. PortoSpire may disclose any information in its possession, including, without limitation, information about Subscribers, internet transmissions and website activity in order to comply with a court order, subpoena, summons, discovery request, warrant, statute, regulation, governmental request, or other legal process to protect PortoSpire or others from harm, and/or to ensure the proper operation of the Services. PortoSpire has no obligation to notify any person, including the Subscriber about whom information is sought, that PortoSpire has provided the information.

    2. Accurate Account Information

      Subscriber must continually update and keep accurate and current Subscriber's contact information stored and saved on PortoSpire in order to avoid termination of Subscriber's PortoSpire account(s).

    3. Duty to Notify PortoSpire of Breach

      If Subscriber discovers anyone on the PortoSpire system violating any of these Terms or notices anything suspicious from the PortoSpire network, Subscriber agrees to report the violation or suspicious activity.

    6. Governing Law

      These Terms shall be governed by the laws of the State of Ohio without reference to conflict of law principles. The United Nations Convention on the International Sale of Goods shall not apply and is hereby expressly excluded.

Subscriber agrees that it has no right to and shall not file or otherwise bring a lawsuit against PortoSpire outside the State of Ohio; and, that Subscriber, if involved before a court in a lawsuit outside of the State of Ohio, shall be deemed to support and to stipulate to a motion made by PortoSpire to dismiss said lawsuit with respect to PortoSpire.
