2. Payments, Termination, and Reinstatement

Payment Obligations

Payment is due on the due date. If payment is not made by the due date, Client's Site will be suspended the following day and remain in suspension until payment is received. No reimbursement will be made for the period of suspension, since the Client's Site is still occupying space on the Provider's server. If payment is not received after two weeks, the Client's Site will be deleted. A deleted Site may be restored with payment of the balance due plus a reinstatement fee up to one month after the payment becomes past due. Past that point, the Client's only option is to pay to have another Site developed and hosted.

Inactive Site

Client may choose to have your Site removed from Internet access, but maintained on Provider's server in an inactive status for future activation, by paying a small monthly storage fee as listed on the Dazzle Sites website. This storage fee provides for storage only, and no maintenance of the website. All aspects of the Site will be unavailable during the period of inactivity, including email addresses, databases, email lists, etc.

Termination

Provider reserves the right to refuse service to anyone. Provider may, in its sole discretion, immediately terminate this Agreement if Client violates any term of this Agreement.
