Terms and Conditions
1. Services
Subject to the terms of this Agreement Little Creek Solutions agrees to provide the web hosting services described in the Order for the fees stated in the Order.
2. Term
The initial service term of the Agreement shall begin on the date that Little Creek Solutions generates an e-mail message to Customer announcing the activation of the Customer’s account (the “Service Commencement Date”) and shall continue for the number of months stated in the Order (the “Initial Term”). Upon expiration of the Initial Term, this Agreement shall automatically renew for the same length as the Initial Term (each a “Renewal Term”) unless Little Creek Solutions or Customer provides the other with termination notice within 7 days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or then-current Renewal Term, as applicable. The Initial Term and any Renewal Term may be referred to collectively in this Agreement as the “Term.”
3. Payments
(a) Recurring Fees
Renewal notices are emailed 5 days before the actual renew date in your account. If you have a credit card on file your card will automatically be charged on your renewal is due. If your billing method is Paypal you will need to manually pay your invoice every month. All payments submitted for services are non-refundable outside of our 30 day refund policy. Service will be made inactive on accounts that are not paid by the 7th day past due. The term "Account" describes all services provided to a customer as defined by the primary ownership email and physical address. Little Creek Solutions reserves the right to revoke this grace period if a pattern of late payment is observed. All orders made with a credit card are expected to work on the monthly renewal date each month. Any accounts made inactive for non-payment are subject to a $10.00 late payment fee. Any accounts terminated due to non payment are subject to a $10.00 restoration fee once all past due invoices have been paid.
(b) Payment Terms
For your convenience Little Creek Solutions offers multiple payment terms. All payments to Little Creek Solutions are non refundable after the first 30 days of service. Within the first 30 days of a Quarterly, Semi-Annual or Yearly paid service you may request that it be converted to a Monthly subscription and the remaining balance will be refunded to your original payment method. If after the first 30 days of service you request the package to be converted to a different billing cycle any additional monies will be applied to your account in the form of credits and will not be refunded. Prior to paying a renewal invoice and before your renewal date you may have your payment terms changed at no additional charge. If you wish to cancel a Quarterly, Semi-Annual or Yearly package prior to its renewal date, your package will be pro-rated to the nearest Monthly billing cycle and any remaining funds will be credited to your account. Any cancellation as the result of a violation of our TOS or AUP will be non refundable.
(c) Credit/Debit card and your Address on File
When an order is placed with a credit/debit card, your card is stored on file and will automatically be charged every month two days before your due date. For security purposes your address on file with us must match the address of your credit/debit card. If this address does not match, our payment gateway will not accept the transaction. If you have a credit card on file and the transaction is declined due to the address this transaction might show up as a pending charge but will not be processed through. If you have a debit card on file and the transaction is declined due to the address your bank will pull the money out of your account but this money will be refunded back to your account by your bank. It is recommended to always store a credit card on file instead of a debit card.
(d) 30 Day Money Back Guarantee
All new Little Creek Solutions Customers are eligible for a 30 day money back guarantee on all hosting packages upon written request, excluding Dedicated Servers and Domain Name Registrations. The definition of a new customer is one who has never purchased services from Little Creek Solutions in the past. Also if a customer purchases a 2nd, 3rd, etc. hosting package and wishes to cancel this particular package they are not eligible for a refund. If you exceed your bandwidth limit within the first 30 days of service you are not eligible for the 30 day money back guarantee. If the TOS/AUP agreed upon when ordering is violated this voids your eligibility for the 30 day money back guarantee. Little Creek Solutions reserves the right to deny the refund if we feel abuse of services has occurred.
(e) Payments Dedicated Servers
We do not offer a 30 day money back guarantee on Dedicated Servers. Renewal notices are emailed seven days before the service due date. If you have a credit card or ACH account on file your it will automatically be charged on the renewal date. If your billing method is Paypal you will need to manually pay your invoice every month by the due date at 12 PM EST. All renewals made with a credit card are expected to work on the day your card is charged. In the event you
fail to pay your invoice by the due date, we reserve the right to suspend your entire account and a late fee of $25 applies. The term “Account” describes all services provided to a customer as defined by the primary ownership email and physical address. If your invoice is still not paid by the 7th day past the due date on the invoice, we reserve the right to terminate your service entirely and reformat
your server.
