We reserve the right to refuse, cancel or suspend service, at our sole discretion. All sub-networks, distributive hosting sites and dedicated servers of NixiHost.com must adhere to the above policies, with the exception of system resources in respect to dedicated servers.

Billing

By the Account Activation Date of each billing cycle, NixiHost.com shall either: (1) debit the client's credit card (when such information has been provided by the client); or (2) deliver, by e-mail or regular mail, an invoice in accordance with the applicable Service Fees for services rendered for the current month. When an invoice is delivered to the client, payment shall be remitted to NixiHost.com by no later than the specified payment due date. NixiHost.com shall be entitled to immediately terminate this agreement for client's failure to make timely payments. You will be provided with an invoice on the terms of the renewal cycle. All credit cards are billed automatically on the terms of the renewal cycle. It is the client's responsibility to ensure that they have sufficient credit to cover renewal transactions. In the event that there is insufficient credit, we will send an e-mail notification, at which point we will need to be provided with another credit card account number within seven days. If we do not receive a response within the alloted time period, the account, and all accounts under that account plan, may be suspended.

If client terminates this agreement, client shall be responsible for any and all outstanding fees owed to NixiHost.com and agrees to pay any and all fees incurred by client. Because the services are provided on a monthly basis, the client will be responsible for service fees incurred each month, regardless of when client provides notice of termination. Thus, for example, if the client provides notice of termination on the 15th day of a particular month, the client will be responsible for service fees for the entire month, and such fees will not be pro-rated or refunded.
