1. Services
Subject to the terms of this Agreement, and contingent on Customer’s satisfaction of computerjazz.net’s credit approval requirements, computerjazz.net agrees to provide the web hosting services described in the Order for the fees stated in the Order.

2. Term
The initial service term of the Agreement shall begin on the date that computerjazz.net generates an e-mail message to Customer announcing the activation of the Customer’s account (the “Service Commencement Date”) and shall continue for the number of months stated in the Order (the “Initial Term”). Upon expiration of the Initial Term, this Agreement shall automatically renew for up to three successive renewal terms of the same length as the Initial Term (each a “Renewal Term”) unlessl computerjazz.net or Customer provides the other with written notice of non-renewal at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or then-current Renewal Term, as applicable. The Initial Term and any Renewal Term may be referred to collectively in this Agreement as the “Term.”

3. Payments
(a) Fees.
Fees are payable in advance on the first day of each billing cycle. Customer’s billing cycle shall be monthly or annually as indicated on the Order, beginning on the Service Commencement Date. computerjazz.net may require payment for the first billing cycle before beginning service. If the Order provides for credit/debit card billing, Customer authorizes computerjazz.net to bill subsequent fees to the credit/debit card on or after the first day of each successive billing cycle during the Term of this Agreement; otherwise computerjazz.net will invoice Customer via electronic mail to the Primary Customer Contact listed on the Order. Invoiced fees may be issued on or before the 1^st day of each billing cycle, and the fees shall be due on the 14^th day following invoice date, but in no event earlier than the first day of each billing cycle.

Payments must be made in Australian dollars. Customer is responsible for providing computerjazz.net with changes to billing information (such as credit card expiration, change in billing address) At its option, computerjazz.net may accrue charges to be made to a credit/debit card until such charges exceed $10.00. computerjazz.net may charge interest on overdue amounts at the lesser of 1.5% per month or the maximum non-usurious rate under applicable law. computerjazz.net may suspend the service without notice if payment for the service is overdue. Fees not disputed within sixty (60) days of due date are conclusively deemed accurate. Customer agrees to pay computerjazz.net’s reasonable reinstatement fee following a suspension of service for non-payment, and to pay computerjazz.net’s reasonable costs of collection of overdue amounts, including collection agency fees, attorney fees and court costs.

(b) Fee Increases
Section 2 above, the Customer shall be deemed to have accepted the new fee for that Renewal Term and any subsequent Renewal Terms (unless the fees are increased in the same manner for a subsequent Renewal Term).

(c) Taxes
At computerjazz.net's request Customer shall remit to computerjazz.net GST imposed on the provision of the services (but not in the nature of an income tax on computerjazz.net), regardless of whether computerjazz.net fails to collect the tax at the time the related services are provided.

(d) Early Termination
Customer acknowledges that the amount of the fee for the service is based on Customer’s agreement to pay the fee for the entire Initial Term, or Renewal Term, as applicable. In the event computerjazz.net terminates the Agreement for Customer’s breach of the Agreement in accordance with Section 9 (Termination), or Customer terminates the service other than in accordance with Section 9 (Termination) for computerjazz.net’s breach, the unpaid fees for each billing cycle remaining in the Initial Term or then-current Renewal Term, as applicable, are due on the business day following termination of the Agreement.
