and services in which the equipment is moved to another location
are bound by these terms.
TimewarpSoftware provides free of charge a consultation which describes
different solutions and suggestions which we can provide to you. It
is at the customer's sole discretion to determine which services to purchase
and which products to buy. The services that the customer chooses can be
provided by TimewarpSoftware. These services may not be refundable
and payment is due for the application of the solution, labor, and cost of
parts, even if the equipment still does not function to the customers satisfaction.
You agree to indemnify and hold TimewarpSoftware harmless from any

nature whatsoever incurred by you, by reason of or arising

Web Hosting
TimewarpSoftware provides administration service for web-sites, Hereinafter
called "Administration" or "Web Hosting Services".
These Administration services include: Web-site design, acquisition of domain
name, email account administration, and general maintenance.
In additional to basic web hosting services, TimewarpSoftware
also offers paid optional features which can be added to accounts.
An extra fee may be required to add additional services.
In order to acquire the domain name and server space for your site, we purchase
services from a Host. You may choose any host you like, and the fees
vary. Please refer to the Terms and Services of the Host chosen for your
account. All
of the Hosts Terms and Conditions are enforced at all times.
All TimewarpSoftware web hosting accounts point to a "Coming Soon" web
page by default when activated. This page informs visitors that the Member
has recently setup their account with TimewarpSoftware. The Coming Soon web page may
be removed by the Member at any time once they have access to the web server.
The "Coming Soon" web page may include such things as, without
limitation (i) links to additional products and services offered by TimewarpSoftware,
(ii) advertisements for products and services offered by third-parties, and
(iii) an internet search engine interface.
All page error requests (such as 403 errors or 404 errors) direct traffic
to a default error page determined by the host. TimewarpSoftware has no
control over the content of this page. This page informs visitors that the
page they are looking for cannot be found and it
may include
such
things
as, without
limitation (i) links to additional products and services offered by the host,
(ii) advertisements for products and services offered by third-parties, and
(iii) an internet search engine interface.
Administration
TimewarpSoftware offers to be the administrator for your site for as long
as you like. Changes can be made to the site by contacting us, additional
fees for changes may be required. During this time period, the customer
will not retain ownership of the Domain Name, the
master password for editing and upkeeping the
site
will not be disclosed
to the
owner and
will
be kept
by
TimewarpSoftware for security reasons. However
if the customer chooses, complete ownership and control can be transferred
to the customer at any time. This type of transfer requires that the
customer pay any past due balance in full. This change also blocks
access to the site from TimewarpSoftware. Thus, once full transfer occurs,
TimewarpSoftware
cannot edit, update, promote, administrate email addresses or access the
site. At
this point TimewarpSoftware will no longer be the Administrator to the site.
Please note that if full transfer is requested, the customer may not have
the software packages, knowledge, or ability to upkeep the site, but still
assumes full responsibility for the web-site. Once a customer has gained
full control of the site, due to security concerns, Timewarpsoftware can
never directly access except for viewing from the internet as any person
or third party can do.
Failure to Pay
Part 1 - Failure to pay the invoices due from the creation, registration,
or any other charges may result in the page being removed from the internet. The
Domain Name will become property of TimewarpSoftware. A
generic placeholder page will take it's place and the domain name will
become unavailable forever. We welcome any payment plan that meets
the needs of both parties, and are wiling to negotiate about the payments. We
do not want to remove your site for failure to pay this type of charge.
Part 2- Failure to pay the Yearly Site Registration fee, will result in
the page being removed from the internet. The Domain Name will
become property of TimewarpSoftware. A generic placeholder page
will take its place and the domain name will become unavailable
forever. The value of the Domain Name may increase in value astronomically
and can be
auctioned
off, sold back to the customer, or retained
by
TimewarpSoftware for an indefinite time period. This is a mandatory
fee and must be paid in full each year.
