PMMan End User License Agreement

This EULA is current as of 15 October 2009, and will be altered from time to time. We reserve the right to do so without prior notice, and as we see fit, absent a custom EULA which is available upon request if there is a problem with a given constraint.

Your continued use of our services shall constitute assent to all such terms and conditions. When these terms change, your web control login screen will not let you proceed to the authenticated state without expressly accepting the revised terms -- as you may manage boxes other than through the web GUI we provide, you have the choice to transfer content away if the new terms are not acceptable (or better to contact us for a clarification). We will endeavor to not change terms more frequently than monthly as we stabilize the text to our case.

In order to have a document in place, due to a premature leak as to the existence of the product and to permit early access in response to the demand it created, we cribed EULA content from another hoster. It seems to have been originally drafted in a language and for a jurisdiction other than Engoish and the US -- we'll fix that, remove inapplicable matter, and dial in better markup through this refactoring process as well -- 091015

TERMS OF USE FOR THE PMMAN WEBSITE and RESOURCES
By accessing the PMman website to either view information or use our services, you agree to abide by current applicable laws and to the following additional terms of use.

1. Intellectual property rights
All data on our website, including but not limited to, graphics, texts, and logos, is protected by intellectual property laws. Any reproduction, in part or in whole, of any content of our website strictly forbidden. In particular, the logo, the "PMman" brand name, and the "pmman.com" "pmman.net" and "pmman.org" domain names all constitute registered trademarks of PMman, which you may not use in any way without prior express permission of PMman. You agree to not redistribute or reproduce public data available on our website or otherwise communicated as part of the use of our services, unless such action is restricted to your own personal use and in accordance with the present terms of use and to the contractual obligations of the services concerned.

2. Use of the Whois database
Our "Whois" database is made available to you as a means for consulting the personal and technical information pertaining to a registered domain name. This database is also protected by intellectual property rights. No rights other than having the permission to consult the database is granted to you. Upon using our Whois database, you agree to use its data in a manner and means that are in accordance with current applicable laws and legislation, in order to register a domain name or view the registration status of an existing domain name. In particular, you agree to not extract, collect or use the data in any way or means that will result in, allow, facilitate, or participate in the sending, transmission and/or making of mass or multiple commercial and/or other unsolicited advertisement via e-mail, telephone or fax, that does not abide by current applicable laws. Any mass and/or automated inquiries made of our Whois database, as well as any failed or successful attempt to bypass the technical security measures in place, and any use, extraction, transfer, storage, reproduction or redistribution, for any other use or intent other than the viewing of this information, the registration or modification of a domain name, is strictly forbidden and may be grounds for criminal or civil prosecution. The registries in charge of the management of domain names registered under each TLD reserve the right to restrict your access to the Whois database in order to guarantee the operational stability of the service.
PMman may therefore temporarily restrict or suspend your access to the Whois database in the event of a breach in the aforementioned terms of use.
In addition, you agree that:
2.1. PMman's role is to provide access to this database, for which the purpose is to retrieve information on registered domain names.
2.2. PMman does not have the means to verify the content of the Whois database, which is shared throughout the world and gathers information from various parties. In particular, the Whois database access provided by PMman includes information pertaining to domain names registered by third parties (Registrars, Registries, resellers, etc.) over whom PMman has no control, even if the content of the respective databases, shared worldwide, is accessible from the Whois on PMman's Website, as well as from any other Whois portal.
2.3. Concerning domain names that are not registered with PMman, the data presented in the Whois cannot be certified as wholly accurate by PMman, and is supplied by third parties. Nonetheless:
2.3.1. Each person registering a domain name must supply accurate, complete and updated information for the entire duration of the registration of their domain name, both on themselves as well as for each of the contacts (administrative, technical and billing) associated with the domain name. Therefore, if the information associated with a domain name registered through PMman seems to be incorrect, you must alert us to this fact through our free online interface, available at http://rip.pmman.com/index-en.html. We will then alert the registered owner of the domain name that they must correct or update the information within fifteen (15) days. If we do not receive a reply, or if the reply is inadequate, or if the information is still incorrect or outdated after a fifteen (15)-day period, this shall constitute a basis for holding or deleting the domain name.
2.3.2. If information viewed concerns a domain name for which you are the owner or registered contact, it is your obligation to correct/update your information in the Whois via our online interface after logging in with your access codes. If this does not occur, you risk the deletion or suspension of your domain.
2.3.3. If PMman is not the Registrar of the domain name in question, we cannot modify the data associated with the registration of the domain name. In this case, you should contact the Registrar of the aforementioned domain name. The Registrar's name is presented in the Whois.

As an example, with one share you can run a traditional web server, a data storage server, or a TeamSpeak server (chat system enabling several persons to chat over the Internet, for example during an online game).

Article 7. Your access codes
A confidential password, that you choose when you open your Account, is associated with your handle. Your handle and the associated password (hereinafter referred together as your "Access Codes") enable you to manage your PMman Hosting Account independently via our interface (subscription of options, addition or cancellation of shares allocated to your server). Depending on the service chosen, you will also need to create one or several users and their respective passwords (hereafter referred to as "Users"), which will be authorized to connect to your server. You must take care to assure that the passwords chosen provide a high level of security (number and type of characters chosen). Each password is strictly confidential and is under your responsibility, or its holder's responsibility if you assign the administration of your account or server(s) to someone else, who must take all necessary precautions to protect its confidentiality and integrity. You must also take all necessary measures to prevent the loss or theft of these passwords. You agree to formally notify us as soon as a password has been lost or disclosed to an unauthorized third party. By default, each operation performed using your Access Codes is considered to have been performed under your responsibility, with your agreement, and thus you acknowledge that the data in our logs is authentic in matters concerning all usage of your access codes at PMman. Please note however that PMman does not manage your Users accounts and passwords, which are under your sole responsibility, and for which PMman can not intervene, particularly in the event of the loss or theft of a User and/or root password.

You will therefore only pay for the services subscribed to until their deactivation.

The agreement has a 12-month period, renewable, without ever becoming a contract of unlimited duration. At the end of the annual period, you can renew for the same duration, or opt for the monthly offer. You can terminate this agreement (article 9.1) prior to its expiration date if you want, however such early termination shall not entitle you to any refund or credit.
8.1.3. The « PMman Flex » optional service (hourly basis)
In addition to the above offers, we also offer a service called "PMman Flex", which enables you, once you have subscribed to the monthly offer or to the annual offer, to add resources for only a few hours on a server, according to a schedule that you decide. For example, you can schedule the addition of a supplemental share each Monday between 9 and 10 AM, if you know that your server needs more resources within that period each week.
8.2 Renewal
8.2.1 Express renewal (by default)
By default, renewal is not automated. It must be expressly requested and paid (payment received and validated) by you via our web Interface, on time:
· at least one day prior to the end of the period, under our monthly offer,
· at least one month prior to the end of the period, under our annual offer.
8.2.2. Tacit renewal (optional)
You may activate the automatic renewal option if you wish, such option is available on our Interface. The activation or deactivation of such option must be made:
· at least one day prior to the end of the period, under our monthly offer,
· at least one month prior to the end of the period, under our annual offer.
The operation of this option depends on the state of the prepaid account associated to your PMman Hosting Account, which must be sufficiently credited in advance.

Article 9. End of the agreement - Termination
9.1. End of the agreement
The subscribed services expire at the end of the paid-for subscription period in the following cases:
· if, at the end of the period, you do not renew the service, or if the payment has not been received and validated on time,
· if there is not enough credit on your prepaid account to pay for the ordered services or renewals.
The agreement and the services associated to your PMman Hosting Account shall also stop if you terminate it/them early (article hereunder), or in case of termination by PMman under the conditions specified hereafter (Article 15).
9.2. Your right to early termination
You can remove some or all the shares or optional resources that are associated to your PMman Hosting Account, included during the term. Under our annual offer (Article 8.1.2) the early termination does not give right to any credit or refund. Under our monthly offer without commitment (Article 8.1.1), in case of early termination, your prepaid account shall be credited with the amount corresponding to the remaining unused time (prorata), from the termination day until the end of the initially subscribed period.
You will receive our Notification, which will specify which service was terminated, the link to the interface stating your prepaid account balance, and the conditions to get a refund of the remaining balance. In consideration of the large freedom that is, if relevant, offered with this early termination process, which is possible even prior to the end of the initial subscribed period in some of our offers, you agree not to use this right in an unreasonable manner. You agree that, in case of untimely or unreasonable requests in their frequency from your part, PMman shall be entitled to charge an additional fixed fee of 5 US dollars (excluding VAT) for each operation, as transaction cost. Such costs shall be withdrawn from your prepaid account, which must be sufficiently credited.
9.3. Data backup at the end of agreement
In case of termination, regardless the reason, or LLL of the subscribed service, PMman will delete all the data associated with your corresponding server(s). Consequently, it is your obligation to backup and recover your Contents before the expiration of the service, or before a change in service provider, as well as on a regular basis during the term of the contract, as indicated in Articles 3 and 14 of this agreement. Upon expiration, your server is deactivated for a 5-day period. Late renewal is still possible during this time. Thus you can perform late renewal of the service no later than five (5) calendar days after expiration, unless you have deliberately terminated this service through the early termination process.

Article 10. Suitability of the service provided to your needs
PMman may not be held responsible for the unsuitability of the service provided in view of the particular objectives you may have set or pursued, which shall be excluded from the contractual field in any event. You acknowledge that you have checked the suitability of the service to your needs, and that you have obtained all the necessary technical information and advices from third parties for this purpose. You acknowledge that, before making any subscription decision, you had access to the details of the technical characteristics of our services, and to the information provided online on our website, as well as in our forums and through our customer care department (support), provided to you so that you could judge for yourself the suitability of our services to your needs.

Article 12. Operating our services and your Content under your responsibility
You commit to using our services in a way and for purposes that are strictly legal, in compliance with our ethics, and in compliance with the standards and technical characteristics of our services. You are fully liable, including in case of reselling our services or in case of a license of use granted to a third party, for professional reasons or not:
· for all and any consequence and/or dispute relative to the choice and use of our hosting services, resulting from your action, or from the action of any of your employees or any other person to whom you have given your Access Code(s) or access to manage your server, at your own risk, or any other person who may have gained access to your server; it being reminded that any use of the Access Code associated to your PMman Hosting Account shall be deemed made by yourself, with your consent or upon your instruction, and that the passwords associated to your servers shall be under your sole liability;
· for all and any Content stored, broadcast, transmitted, relayed, issued, collected, used, processed or made directly or indirectly available via your PMman Hosting Account, even though the Content was installed, issued or published by third parties through your server(s), placed under your sole responsibility,

This obligation will survive the termination of this contract. You specifically guarantee PMman against all and any action or claims from third parties linked to the Content installed, issued, published, transmitted, broadcast or reproduced through your servers, in particular that which results from infringement of personality rights, an ownership right linked to a patent, a trademark, designs and models, copyright, respect of privacy, good moral standards, from the provisions of the US and its political subdivisions penal law , and/or to abuses or practices that are prejudicial to Internet users, whether the said Content was installed by you or by a third party. You also agree to find a rapid solution to each problem or dispute which may arise with regards to your use of our services and, where applicable, to rapidly communicate the identity of any third party which has a license or right to use and/or manage the services operated via our technical solutions.

Article 13. Technical interventions by PMman
It is agreed that PMman is acting as a technical services provider for the purpose of ensuring the proper operation of its services, the safety and stability of the system. In that respect, PMman may intervene on all or part of the server(s) associated to your PMman Hosting Account, under the following circumstances:
· to provide services included in the subscribed offer (for example, in connection with the "PMman Auto Install" offer),
· to stop a malfunction inherent to our system,
· to carry out a maintenance operation,
· in case of trouble affecting the safety and/or the stability of the system:
abusive use and/or illegal use of your server without your rapid reaction by yourself or following a warning from our service (ex: spamming, fraud, hacking...); obvious damage to, or attempt to damage our infrastructure caused by your server (DDoS, botnet, spamming, ...),
· as part of our customer service, with your consent, and if our intervention turns out to be necessary. This access is intended to facilitate the prompt resolution of certain legal and/or technical problems.
You acknowledge and agree for that purpose that PMman may access your server. However you have the technical possibility to cancel such access under the "PMman Expert" option (the option is not compatible with the "PMman Auto Install" services). You will then have to carry out yourself the technical interventions on your server, including in case of malfunction or failure, whatever its cause or origin, unless you expressly request PMman's assistance. In all event, if it is absolutely necessary, we shall reserve the right to interrupt some or all of the service in order to perform a technical intervention, particularly in the case of defective operation, or to improve the operation, or to perform any maintenance operation. We shall do everything necessary to limit the time of the said interruption as much as possible and, if possible, we shall give you reasonable prior notice, indicating the date, the type and the duration of the intervention, so that you can make all the necessary arrangements. However, you acknowledge that we will not be able to give you prior notice in the case where the service interruption is due to an external reason (in particular, one that would be inherent to Internet itself) or if it is explicitly requested by a competent authority.

Article 14. Hardware and software security
PMman agrees to make every effort to ensure the security of its hardware and its technical infrastructure. However, you acknowledge and accept that the security of each of your servers shall be your sole responsibility. You agree to take all the steps necessary to secure the access to your server(s), and of your Access Codes and passwords.
You shall also be responsible for maintaining and updating the security software relative to your server(s). Under no circumstances may PMman be held responsible for security flaws and damage resulting from your failure to update the security software and maintain suitable security protocols in the administration of your server(s). You agree to inform PMman immediately of any security flaw or any abusive use of your server(s), regardless of the type, which comes to your knowledge, so that we can coordinate our efforts if necessary. In addition, we reserve the right to suspend, or even delete your server(s) or our services and associates resources without prior notice in the case of a security flaw caused by your server(s). You shall be explicitly responsible for your data backups and configurations backups. In order to ensure the continual access of its services, PMman shall duplicate your data and the information hosted on your server. For this purpose, we use "RAID10", an innovative solution in terms of data backup on hard disks. However, you acknowledge that the use of this solution does not constitute a contractual guarantee and, under no circumstances, does it relieve you from performing regular backups of your data and your configurations on a medium outside PMman, this obligation of backup being incumbent on you. You commit yourself to cooperate with any administrative or legal investigation related with whole or part of our services, including on your server(s).

Article 15. Termination by PMman
15.1. Termination linked to a breach of contract
Any failure to abide by your contractual obligations, which have not been corrected within fifteen (15) days of receiving our Notification to do so, shall lead to cancellation of the contract and the associated services, with no legal formalities and without you being entitled to any reimbursement or compensation.
15.2. Suspension/Cancellation without notice in the case of serious breach of contract
You acknowledge that the following elements shall be considered as a serious breach of your obligations, and shall be lead to the suspension, or even cancellation, of the service and/or of your PMman Hosting Account, without prior notice, and without you being entitled to claim any compensation from this act, and may be grounds for your prosecution for the prejudice caused, and application of the penalties mentioned in legislation in force:
· in the case non-payment within the specified deadlines, despite our adjustment requests (in particular where collection of our payment is rejected or canceled due to a cancellation order of a check or credit card payment),
· providing fictitious contact information, or not updating your contact information on your own, or upon request, or not providing us with the requested proofs corresponding to your declared identity,
· disrupting our services or system through the use of resources made available to you, and in particular but in a non- exhaustive way, any excessive use of the bandwidth (for example video or audio streaming, etc.), as you must use our services with due care,
· the presence of any Content that is illegal, prejudicial, or contrary to the ethical standards of PMman, as defined above as a serious contractual breach (Article 3), it being stated however that PMman has no monitoring obligation a priori,
· if we are made aware of, or discover that all or part of your servers are objectively associated with data (IP addresses, contact information, server(s), website(s), Contents, etc.) which, themselves, are associated with abusive or deviant practices as defined previously, from the moment that the said abusive uses are committed deliberately and constitute a serious breach of your contractual obligations. We also reserve the right to suspend your server if it is under a DDoS attack, which may disturb the platform well-functioning. In compliance with laws and legislation in force in the US, you agree that we may suspend or immediately cancel, the service(s) and/or your PMman Hosting Account, without notice:
· in order to obey a legal or regulatory obligation, or,
· when ordered by a competent authority (in particular through application of a judicial or extra-judicial decision).
In such cases, you shall not be entitled to claim any compensation or reimbursement, and you could be asked to pay damages in the case of prejudice, in addition to application of the penalties prescribed by legislation in force. More particularly, the amounts paid through your prepaid account could then be retained by PMman as lump-sum compensation, and may be grounds for application of a penalty linked to any cost of restoring the service, equal to the cost of establishing the service concerned.

Article 16. Exclusions and limits of PMMAN's liability
Since the supply of your equipment and your Internet connection are not covered by this contract, we cannot be held responsible for any difficulties due to their unsuitability for the use of our services, their defective operation or their incorrect use, more particularly where the said use does not abide by the conditions or the technical limits of the PMman Hosting services. We shall also refuse any liability relative to any damage that may affect any equipment connected to our infrastructure via the Internet, since it shall remain the full responsibility of its user(s), and PMman does not have control over the said hardware or software. In order to prevent any abusive use of your servers or hacking by a third party, we strongly recommend that you configure your server appropriately, use at least a firewall where applicable, and monitor unusual transmissions of your server(s) (for example by installing a monitoring system). In addition, You acknowledge that you were informed that the applications and/or nature of Content made available via your servers are liable to interfere with the accessibility and operation of your shares of the resources, and any websites that might be hosted on them. We shall not accept any liability for this situation.
In addition, we shall not accept any liability due to:
· negligence, theft, or communication to third parties of the Access Codes associated with your PMman Hosting Account, since it is your responsibility to keep them confidential, and since any use of the Access Codes shall be considered as being made by you or with your agreement,
· difficulties in accessing your websites, Contents or services hosted, due to saturation of the networks at certain periods, and/or due to the technical characteristics and limits of the Internet and access to the Internet, which you declare you are well aware of, and therefore we cannot be held responsible for this in any way whatsoever,
· difficulties or operating defects that are due to the type of Content you install or make available via your server(s) under your sole responsibility,
· any deterioration due to your fault and/or your failure to respect the conditions and technical limits applicable to each of our services,
· the misappropriation, the total or partial destruction of the information transmitted or stored, from the moment that said information circulated via the Internet, and even less so when said destruction is due to the fault, imprudence and/or negligence that is attributable directly or indirectly to you,
· any contamination by virus or other computer contaminant, regardless of the technology used, of your Content and/or software, whose protection is under your responsibility,
· any intrusion by third parties (hacking) of one or more of your server(s), despite the reasonable measures introduced by PMman on its infrastructures, and from the moment that, by express agreement between the parties, the security of your servers remains under your responsibility.
You acknowledge that PMman is not subject to any general obligation to monitor the Contents or applications transmitted or stored through PMman. Although PMman reserves the right to proceed with verifications, we have no obligation to perform any active search for incidents or circumstances involving illegal or prejudicial activities. It is explicitly agreed by the parties that PMman may not be held responsible for any tangible or intangible prejudice, whether direct or indirect, which could result from your use of its services, negligence or incorrect use, the unsuitability of its services in regard to your needs, or breach of contract due to your failure to respect your obligations, or any prejudice, whether direct or indirect, whether commercial or linked to an operating loss. In any event, in the case where the responsibility of PMman would be demonstrated, you cannot claim any indemnification greater than the amount which has been paid to PMman in return for the concerned service and corresponding to the actual unavailability/dysfunction period for this service.

PMMAN PREPAID ACCOUNT SPECIAL CONDITIONS

Version 1.1 of September 30, 2008

PMman.com is a division of 781 Resolution, LLC, a Delaware corporation, website: http://www.pmman.com ("Interface"), hereinafter referred to as "PMman" or "We", or "Our", present its prepaid account solution to You (holder of a PMman prepaid account: "You", "Your").

Section 1. Why a PMman Prepaid account?
PMman offers You the possibility of using its "Prepaid Account" solution. The Prepaid Account is associated to Your PMman handle. You can credit Your Prepaid Account with funds that You may in turn use for Your purchases at PMman. If You no longer need Your Prepaid Account or if You request the closing of Your Prepaid Account, You will be refunded the balance Your Prepaid Account (Section 6).
Your Prepaid Account is designed to facilitate payment between You and PMman, and consequently:
· allow You to pay for all sums due to PMman (payment for services, fees, etc.) with the funds that You have credited to Your Prepaid Account beforehand to this effect,
· allow Us to refund to Your Prepaid Account, as the case may be, any amount remaining in the context of an offer without obligation, and/or to perform any refunds in application of Our Contracts.
Our "Prepaid Account" solution is designed to allow You to:
· simplify Your payments and optimize the processing of Your orders: You no longer need to pay by credit card or check for each order that You want to place!
· centralize Your payments for all services ordered from PMman, and to have a follow-up and tracking tool for payments, and to activate, if You wish, monthly billing for all of Your orders,
· make the payment of some of Your orders automatic, in particular by putting into place an automatic renewal option for some of Our services,
· put in place an alert that will inform You when the balance of Your prepaid account is below a threshold that You specify.

Section 2. Opening Your PMman Prepaid Account
A PMman Prepaid Account is attached to a PMman Handle. You may, however, associate Your Prepaid Account to a pre- existing PMman handle if You are already a PMman customer, or create one for free via Our Website. A PMman Prepaid Account can only be associated to one handle, and can only be used as part of Our contractual relations, after You have logged into Our Website via said handle and its associated password. The identity and address that You have declared for Your handle are required to create and use Your Prepaid Account, and is what will appear on the invoices corresponding to the payments made via Your Prepaid Account, and receipts sent to you following the crediting of Your Prepaid Account.

Section 3. Crediting of Your Prepaid Account
3.1. Means of crediting
The crediting of Your Prepaid Account is made via Our Website, after You have identified Yourself (through Your handle and password) according to the means specified on Our Website, and notably by:
· credit card, via the secure website of Our bank partner (Your Prepaid Account will be immediately credited upon the acceptance of Your payment),
· a check payable drawn on US financial institution, from an authorized agency: You must write the transaction number of Your corresponding order on the back of the check so that we can identify the Account to credit, and thus validate the check,
· bank transfer: You must indicate the transaction number corresponding to Your order in the comments of Your transfer order, so that we can identify the Account to credit and thus validate the transfer.
Upon the reception and validation of Your payment, You will receive an e-mail confirming the crediting of Your Prepaid Account, as well as a link that will allow You to access Your receipt, which may be viewed at any time in the billing section of Your Interface.
3.2. Special conditions for payment by check and bank transfer
You explicitly agree and acknowledge that the crediting of a Prepaid Account cannot be performed by check or wire transfer for any amount under fifty (50) US dollars. You acknowledge and accept that checks and bank transfers less than this amount will not be taken into account by Our services. If You choose to credit Your Prepaid Account by check or wire transfer, this will only be credited upon the validation and corresponding provisioning of the funds no later than seven (7) workdays following the reception of Your payment, under the condition that Your references are complete so that We are able to complete Your payment. It is Your obligation to ensure the appropriateness of these delays (taking into account the postal and/or bank delays) with regards to the degree of urgency of Your order. The crediting by credit card is the most rapid means of payment. Consequently, We recommend this means of payment if You must urgently pay for an order. As a reminder, to avoid any interruption of service, Your payment must be received by Us before the closest deadline (in the case of payment by check or by wire transfer, at least seven (7) days before expiration).
3.3. In the event of a problem with Your Payment
We will be unable to complete Your payment or credit Your Prepaid Account:
· if we receive a check or transfer without the necessary references (transaction number),
· in the case of a crediting of Your Prepaid Account by check or bank transfer for an amount less than fifty (50) US dollars.
All fees originating from such payments remain at Your expense and will be directly debited from Your Prepaid Account (notably postal fees for the returning of a check for example).
You specifically agree that, if the cashing of Your payment is rejected or canceled:
· either Your prepaid account has enough credit for the regularization of this payment and We will directly debit the amount corresponding to the rejected or canceled payment from Your Prepaid account, and We will Notify You of this,
· Or this regularization is not possible, and You will regularize this by another means, within the deadline that We will provide to You.
Otherwise, if no regularization occurs within the specified deadline, We will consider this as Your renunciation of Our services. Your order will be canceled and the corresponding unpaid amount will be debited from Your Prepaid Account. If from this act, services already supplied become unpaid, We will have grounds to deactivate Your handle and/or any or part of the services associated to the Prepaid Account in debit. In the event of a canceled check payment, regularization shall be made by bank transfer, for an amount equal to the initial amount of the transaction, including any additional fees that were charged to Us by the banking institution.

Section 4. Functioning of Your PMman Prepaid Account
Your PMman Prepaid Account is for the payment of orders that You have placed for Our services; it must have sufficient credit for allowing You to pay for Your orders. You specifically agree that the advance and anticipated payments made to Your Prepaid Account will not produce any interest to Your profit, and that PMman will not be paid as compensation for the service thus made available to You, except by specific agreement beforehand to the contrary. To use this solution, You only need to select the PMman Prepaid Account payment means on the corresponding page, at the end of each of Your orders. Our automatic renewal options also function with the Prepaid Account. As soon as You choose to pay via Your Prepaid Account, You must identify Yourself on Our Website to confirm this payment during each order. By choosing this solution, You authorize us to debit Your Prepaid Account for the amounts corresponding to Your orders, and You accept that any refunds that may occur from PMman, during the course of Your contract, will be made directly to Your Prepaid Account. The debits made on Your Prepaid account will follow the chronological order of Your orders, whether these payments are scheduled in advance (automatic renewal) or one-time events (orders for additional options). In the event of automatic renewal, the debit is made the day before the expiration of the service. We would like to bring to Your attention the fact that no partial debit can be made: the Prepaid Account is only debited once the total is enough to cover the totality of the order waiting for payment via the Prepaid Account. Consequently, if Your Prepaid Account is not sufficiently credited to cover at least the exact total of Your order, You will need to credit Your Prepaid Account with enough funds so as to be able to pay for Your order. As long as Your Prepaid Account is not sufficiently credited to allow for the complete payment of the services that You have ordered, the service(s) in question will remain suspended for a maximum delay of 60 days, until the Account has been sufficiently credited, or until You have canceled the surplus orders. You will receive an email notifying You of insufficient credit in Your Prepaid Account, to allow You, if the case may be, to credit Your Prepaid Account and to thus regularize the payment of Your suspended order or to cancel it.
In any event, You acknowledge and accept that any unpaid suspended order older than two (2) months will be automatically canceled and You shall be considered to have abandoned the order. To benefit from the service, You must, if need be, proceed with a new order, providing that the service ordered is still available.

Section 5. Manage Your PMman Prepaid Account
Our Website allows You to consult, in real time, the total of Your Prepaid Account, as well as debits (and corresponding invoices) and credits (and corresponding receipts) to or from Your Prepaid Account. In this way, You can manage Your Prepaid Account in an autonomous manner from Our secure Website, once You have identified Yourself (handle and password associated to Your Prepaid Account). Our Website also allows You to manage the options of Your Prepaid Account. You may, for example:
· solicit the sending of an alert when the balance of Your Account is below an amount that You have specified, in such a way as to optimize the processing of Your orders from Our services, by assuring that You have sufficient credit to cover Your upcoming orders,
· put in place monthly invoicing for Your orders. Both the crediting and debiting of Your Prepaid Account appear in real time on Your Interface, and You are also sent a confirmation by email.
Unless You contest the charge within five (5) days following the mailing of this confirmation, You have presumed to have definitively accepted the application of the payment of Your order to Your Prepaid Account and no claim will be admitted.

Section 6. Duration ­ Closure ­ Refunding
Your PMman Prepaid Account is open for a duration of two (2) months, renewable by tacit renewal for an identical period, under the condition that its associated handle exists, and that You are still the title holder, and unless denunciation by one of the parties by email or any other written means, no latter than 7 days before the expiration of the period underway. Following the end of the two (2)-month period, You may thus decide if You wish to conserve Your Prepaid Account with Our service or not. To simplify the utilization of Our Prepaid Account solution, it is agreed that if You do not request the closure upon its expiration, and thus wish to benefit from its tacit renewal for a new period of two (2) months, You will not loose Your credit: it will be available for You to use for paying Your future orders at PMman during the following period. Nonetheless, You will keep Your freedom to request the closure and refunding of any credit remaining on Your Prepaid account, at any time from Our customer care service (support), including during this period. The remaining balance of Your Prepaid Account will then be refunded. On the other hand, note that it is useless to close Your Account at the end of each of the services ordered, notably if You have the intention of ordering further services from PMman. As the closure of an Account generates management fees for Us, the frequency of closing is limited to once per month. Consequently, You specifically agree that if You request the closure and refunding of Your Prepaid Account more than once per month, You may be charged a processing fee of 5 US dollars excluding VAT. These fees will be debited from Your Prepaid Account or will be paid for by another means.
PMman may close Your Prepaid Account without notice if it is informed that Your account has been credited in a fraudulent manner, or upon the request of a competent authority, without Your being able to request any refund or indemnity from this action, and without prejudice of any applicable sanctions. Any refund made by PMman cannot exceed the amount of the remaining balance on Your Prepaid Account.

Section 7. Access codes ­ Security
The confidential password that You selected during the creation of Your Account, associated to Your handle, is strictly confidential and placed under Your sole responsibility. You agree and accept that it is Your responsibility to take all necessary measures to assure that the confidentiality is preserved. You take it upon Yourself to formally notify us without delay in the event that You have lost Your password or if it has been divulged to an unauthorized third party. By default, any operation made using Your Access Codes (handle and password) is reputed to have been made under Your responsibility and with Your agreement. PMman is not responsible for the utilization, made under Your sole responsibility, of Your Prepaid Account. You acknowledge that with regards to this matter, the data in Our operating systems is authentic within the framework of Our relations as well as claim.

Section 8. Personal information
