Definitions
Membership Software - Membership software is any software that is installed on a clients own domain and that allows multiple members/users to belong to it and each member/user has their own login.
Membership Software License
When you purchase membership software you are purchasing a license that allows you to use the membership software on 1 domain. The license is for the lifetime of the domain you purchased it for and you do not have to renew the license. You must pay hosting fees and other per a member or email fees to keep the site active. If you do not pay the fees the hosting will be terminated and you will have to pay a fee to have the hosting reinstated in order to use the software license you purchased. You are not allowed to install the membership software on more than 1 domain AND you must install it on the domain you purchase the license for. If you wish to transfer the license and/or the site to a new domain name, you must contact us and there will be a fee to do the transfer.
Email Accounts
1 email account which forwards to an email of your choice is included with any subscription to Web Marketing Tool. Any domain you host with us can have an unlimited amount of email accounts added to it. We do not provide support for email accounts. Sending SPAM from one of the email accounts we host is strictly prohibited. Violation of this can result in suspension or cancellation of the account without a refund. The only method we allow for sending emails is through our email marketing software which is setup to be CAN SPAM compliant and monitor abuse.
Refund Policy
We do not provide refunds for any purchases made from our site. In the rare event that a client requests a refund and the work has not yet been started we MAY decide to issue a refund. If we issue a refund it is totally up to us.
Hosting
We provide hosting for every membership software we sell. With our membership software we offer several hosting packages. We attempt to process all payments automatically, and you will be charged for the price of the hosting package that your site belongs to plus any membership or email fees. We offer a 99.9% uptime guarantee. If your site is down for more than this you can contact us and we will credit you $0.25 for every additional 0.1% of time that your site is down during the month. The credit will not exceed your monthly subscription amount and is credited to your next hosting bill.
Premium Hosting
We offer premium hosting that has stricter email regulations. Failure to abide by these regulations will cause your site to be downgraded to a regular (non-premium) hosting package. We reserve the right to update these regulations and you must follow the updated regulations to keep your premium hosting package.
- You and your members are not allowed to use spam to market your site. Spam includes, but is not limited to, sending mass emails to people that have not opted-in to a mailing list OR sending mass emails to people that have opted-in to a 3rd parties opt-in form and the 3rd party has resold their information to more than 5 people.
- You and your members are not allowed to send emails that have misleading subjects or subjects that do not match the content that is in the email. Examples of misleading subjects include, but are not limited to:
- Subjects saying a person has received a payment (Exa: You just received $100 payment OR I just received $100 dollars)
- Autoresponse subjects saying that you previously spoke with or saw a person (If it is an autoresponse message then saying you just spoke with the person wouldn't be true)
- Subjects that make you appear that you are someone that you are not
- Blank subjects
- Using Fwd: or Re: in the email subject when it is not a reply or forwarded message
- Autoresponse subjects that refer to a recent purchase (unless you can prove that EVERYONE that receives this message has made a purchase)

Privacy Policy
We provide a tool for you to add a privacy policy page linked from your capture page and other web pages. You can modify the privacy policy as you need, but you are required to abide by the rules listed in your privacy policy. If you do not choose to have a privacy policy, then, you are not allowed to resale or give out a contact's/lead's email UNLESS you clearly state that you will give out their information on the capture pages. Failure to follow the privacy policy your site uses can result in suspension or cancellation of your account without a refund.
Spam
We have a zero tolerance for spam sent out by any of the sites we host. Spam includes, but is not limited to, sending emails to people who have not opted in to your list, adding people to your list without their approval, or adding people back into your list who have chosen to opt out, reselling or giving out a contacts information UNLESS you specifically state that you will resell or give out their information to a 3rd party. Violation of this can result in suspension or cancellation of your account without a refund. If we determine that one of the members using your site is responsible for sending spam or violating one of our terms and conditions then we will delete their account from your site.
Warranty
Our membership software is warranted against bugs and we will fix any bug you find. If you notice a bug you need to contact us either by email, phone or by filling out a support request. We will fix the bug within 3 business days. If it takes longer than 3 business days to fix the bug then we will credit your account $1 for every additional day. Our warranty does not include bugs caused by you (the client) by modifying the code on one of the pages or bugs created while a worker was working on a support request. To fix these bugs we will charge the time spent as a support request.
