Terms of Sevice
In
pursuit of our primary
objective, Halcyon Computing Services LLC (also referred to as Halcyon)
agrees
to deliver the agreed upon services, as declared in the “New Account”
confirmation, to our customers at the time of purchase, subject to the
following Terms of Service.
In addition, the use of Halcyon’s Aegis backup service(s) by a
subscriber
constitutes an unconditional acceptance of and agreement to Halcyon’s
Terms of
Service. Halcyon reserves the right to change or modify the Terms of
Service at
any time without notice.
I. No Long-Term Service Contract
Required
Halcyon
does not require customers
to commit to any long-term agreement. Customers are billed monthly and
are free
to cancel service at any time.
II. Fair Use of Aegis Software
The
Aegis Security Suite is
meant to provide backup services to the entity (business or individual)
subscribing.
Subscribers may not allow third parties to access their backup space.
Subscribers may not operate a file hosting service with the Aegis
backup
software and may not resell the resources (server disk space and
bandwidth)
that the backup service uses. Subscribers to the Aegis and Aegis Gold
services
are entitled to install and run the Aegis software on a single
computer. Aegis
Administration subscribers are entitled to install and run the Aegis
software
on the number of computers they select in the Aegis Administrative
Console. In
the event of a computer crash (hardware or software failure) a
subscriber may
install the Aegis software on a different computer to allow emergency
access to
backup files. If the original computer is ever repaired and Aegis
software
reinstalled, the Aegis software must be removed from the second
computer.
III. Payment
Establishment
of this service
is dependent upon receipt of payment of stated charges by Halcyon
Computing
Services LLC. Subsequent payments are due every thirty-one days. At the
beginning of a billing cycle a subscriber will be billed the base fee
for that
billing cycle as well as any additional fees accrued during the last
billing
cycle.
IV. Failure to Pay
Halcyon
Computing Services
LLC may temporarily deny or terminate service upon the failure of the
subscriber to pay the charges when due. Such termination or denial will
not
relieve the subscriber of responsibility for the payment of all accrued
charges
and any collection fees.
V. Suspension of Service or
Cancellation
Halcyon
Computing Services
LLC reserves the right to suspend network access to any subscriber if
in the
judgment of Halcyon; the subscriber’s account is the source or target
of a
violation of any of the Terms of Service, or for any other reason which
Halcyon
deems necessary. If inappropriate activity is detected, all accounts of
the
subscriber in question will be deactivated until our investigation is
complete.
Prior notification to the subscriber is not assured. In extreme cases,
law
enforcement will be contacted regarding the activity. The subscriber
may not be
credited for the time the subscriber’s machines were suspended if the
subscriber is found to be at fault.
VI. Data Storage Rights
Subscribers
may not store
data on Halcyon servers that violates any applicable local, state, or
federal
law. This prohibition includes, but is not limited to, data held in
violation
of intellectual property law.
VII. Disclosure to Law
Enformcement
The
Terms of Service
specifically prohibits the use of our service for illegal activities.
Therefore, subscribers agree that Halcyon Computing Services LLC may
disclose
any and all subscriber information including account use, account
contents,
etc. to any law enforcement agency that requests such information,
provided they
possess the proper court-approved warrant, without consent or
notification to
the subscriber.
VIII. Indemnification
Each
party (the “Indemnifying
Party”) hereby indemnifies the other party (the “Indemnified Party”),
its
officers, directors, employees and agents, and agrees to defend and
hold them
harmless from and against any and all liability, damage, loss or
expense
(including reasonable attorneys fees) arising from any claim, demand,
action or
proceeding based upon the alleged breach or untruthfulness of any of
the
Indemnifying Party’s representations or warranties, or incurred in the
settlement or avoidance of any such claim, provided, however, that the
Indemnified Party shall give prompt notice to the Indemnifying Party of
the
assertion of any such claims and provided further that Indemnifying
Party shall
have the right to select counsel and control the defense thereof,
subject to
right of the Indemnified Party to participate therein.
VIII. Severability
If any
provision of these
Terms of Service shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable for any
reason,
the remaining provisions shall continue to be valid and enforceable. If
a court
finds that any provision of these Terms of Service is invalid or
unenforceable,
but that by limiting such provision it would become valid and
enforceable, then
such provision shall be deemed to be written, construed, and enforced
as so
limited.
IX. Applicable Law
These Terms
of Service are subject to the governing
laws of the State of Michigan.
Courts of competent jurisdiction in Ann Arbor, Michigan
shall
hear and decide any disputes.
