The registration of domain names is subject to variables that are not under the control of a registration service provider, including but not limited to, other registration providers' effecting of registrations. For this reason, no domain name ordered or reserved can be guaranteed as registered, until the registry accepts and implements the registration. In the unlikely event that a registration is listed as available, is immediately ordered, but cannot be registered a refund will be due to the client, unless the client has effected the registration by other means, or has otherwise interfered with the process or if the name was in fact registered at the time the order was placed.

The Living Net® provides a professional level Internet service and Domain Names are expected to be used as intended, in conjunction with web space correctly equipped with a domain name server such as that supplied by The Living Net®. The Living Net® equally does not provide any services designed to encourage domain name speculation, or that are not associated with professional use, including so-called cloaking or other forms of redirection.

Digital security certificate clients agree to be bound by the appropriate Subscriber Agreement. As a certification service provider, The Living Net® will enable the client to submit their data to the signing authority (GeoTrust Inc.), and, in the case of a The Living Net® SSL-enabled hosting client wishing to implement the certificate on that account, will undertake the CSR generation required to submit the application, and will install the certificate. Some of these steps will require cooperation and the exercise of care by the client and a working knowledge of e-mail, as well as access to the appropriate addresses required to approve the application and to forward the certificate for installation. On no account can The Living Net® be held responsible for the client's failure to adequately fulfil these requirements. Where a certificate is being set up at the same time as a hosting account, also supplied by The Living Net®, for the sake of speedy implementation, the client grants The Living Net® the right to receive and respond to the approver e-mail and any basic administrative interaction with the signing authority through the domain, as necessary for the technical implementation of the certificate. Similarly, where no Fully Qualified Domain Name has been expressly specified for a certificate ordered at the same time as a hosting package, the certificate issued shall be for the customer's account domain preceded by "www." Clients wishing to install certificates on their own server or another ISP's configuration are expected to have or obtain the necessary expertise to do so, and, due to the wide variety of possible platforms and the lack of control over the client's systems, support is entirely at the discretion of The Living Net®. Normally these installations can be achieved with minimal expertise, easily, or with some self-reliance and perseverance, by following the installation instructions supplied, however, the wide variety of available platforms, configurations and client's technical abilities, means that neither the successful generation of the CSR, nor the successful installation can be guaranteed. Special offer certificate purchases do not normally include installation support. For all clients, transfer of your working certificate is not supported, and may involve purchase of a new certificate for your new server. Due to the complex number of variables involved, under no circumstances can The Living Net® be held responsible for the client's incorrect submission of information or any delay, or technical failure on the part of the signing authority or other supplier, that influences the validity of the certificate or renders it invalid, or for any associated loss or damage. As per the indemnification clause of these Terms, the client indemnifies and holds harmless The Living Net® against any kind of loss or damage arising from the use or installation of security certificates.

It is the clients express responsibility to ensure payment for services rendered whether or not in receipt of communications in this regard.

Refunds
Customised services cannot normally be refunded (domain registrations, security certficates and any other service irrevocably implemented with specific customer details) except at the discretion of the The Living Net®.

The Living Net® do not put adverts on client's web sites.

Web server space is intended for efficiently serving of web pages to web users and not for storage of files that can be kept elsewhere (including archived logs), nor for distribution of resource-intensive files. E-mail accounts need to be regularly cleared of unnecessary files (including emptying of trash) and should be maintained under 30 Megabytes, unless specifically required.

Account holders are not permitted to resell or give away any of their web space or any service provided by The Living Net® unless explicit consent has been given, or permit anyone to use their account in any way that may be in breach of these terms and conditions.

The Living Net® do not allow clients to install their own chat room programs, these tend to be a large drain on system resources.

Sites with archives of image files or other files for download that may put a serious drain on server resources are also not permitted.

Accounts that use excessive amounts of system resources that result in degradation of server performance will be subject to suspension or deletion at the sole discretion of The Living Net®.

Sites are checked regularly and any site in breach of these terms and conditions will be removed from the servers.

It is the client's responsibility to ensure that password(s) and username are kept safe. Client's must not divulge the password(s) to any other person except their web designer or web consultant, and should take reasonable precautions to ensure that they are not discovered by anyone other. Where any third party carries out work on behalf of the client, with or without access to the client's account login details, the client shall nevertheless bear all responsibilities as outlined in this contract, especially but not only, as relating to server use, indemnification and liability, as though any work were carried out by the client themselves. Similarly, any future unauthorised access or damage resulting from divulging account login details is solely the responsibility of the client; it is a specific requirement that clients login and change the access password(s) after a relationship ends with any such third party. Client's are liable financially for any damages incurred and any extra work necessary to restore correct operation, that arise in connection with their account, including but not limited to the failure to properly protect their login details from unauthorised use or the installation of a custom program or script with security holes (or other effects that cause damage or require special intervention to correct), or the failure to adequately maintain and update an installed program or script.

Clients must not participate in any form of unsolicited bulk e-mailing or spam.

Data integrity of any data stored on any servers cannot be guaranteed. The client must keep backups of all data stored on their server.

Support is by e-mail. Support requests will be dealt with as soon as possible with priority allocated according to the seriousness and the degree to which a request relates to the actual site/server/domain name performance. Valid Support requests relate to the correct functioning of services rendered, all other types of requests, such as those related to user know-how, are answered as and if time allows. Queries more appropriate to the services of a web consultancy, such as, but not limited to, the client's web space development, installation of custom cgi scripts or third party software are not normally answered, and if at all, on a purely discretionary basis. Response times may vary do to the unpredictability of volumes, but we endeavour to respond to valid support requests by the following business (Mon-Fri) day and sooner, for urgent matters. Support for digital certificate subscribers installing certificates on their own or other provider's equipment is necessarily entirely at the sole discretion of The Living Net®.
