Mobil
Satellite Technologies Enterprise ISP Subscriber Agreement
READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THE
MOBIL SATELLITE TECHNOLOGIES ENTERPRISE ISP SERVICE.
1. AGREEMENT
This is an agreement between Mobil Satellite
Technologies and you to provide Mobil Satellite Technologies Enterprise
ISP Service ("the Service"). By establishing an account,
using the Service or equipment, you agree to be bound by this Agreement
and to use the Service in compliance with the Mobil Satellite Technologies
Internet Service Agreement used to order your Mobilsat ISP service.
2. TERM
The initial term of this agreement begins on
your account billing start date and continues for the initial term indicated on the service order paperwork.
Your account billing start date is the date your service is activated. At the conclusion of each term, this Agreement will renew for an additional term of the same duration unless cancelled in writing 30 day prior to the expiration of the previous term. Mobil Satellite Technologies reserves the
right to change the price of the Service at any time after the initial
term upon 30 days notice. Prices for other Mobil Satellite Technologies
services may change at any time upon 30 days notice and will be
posted on the Mobil Satellite Technologies website at: www.Mobilsat.com.
Current rates may also be obtained by calling 1-757-312-8300.
3. THE SERVICE
The Service includes one Private static IP address.
Public IP Addresses are available for an extra charge. The Service speed can vary depending on Internet traffic, enviornmental, and other factors beyond the control
of Mobil Satellite Technologies. Mobil Satellite Technologies provides
the Service on a "best effort" standard and does not guarantee
upload or download speeds, except as guaranteed by the subscriber's
additional purchase of additional bandwidth Commited Information
Rate (CIR), or by subscribers purchase of dedicated 1:1 satellite bandwidth.
The service is designed to provide access to the public internet,
primarily for web browsing and email. Certain applications like
VoIP, videoconferencing, and streaming media are designed to use
a constant amount of bandwidth, and as a result consume more network
resources than normal Internet access. By purchasing a minimum CIR
(Committed Information Rate) in addition to the standard bandwidth,
you will insure the highest quality when using these applications.
Use of these applications without CIR is a violation of the Terms
of Service, and will result in additional charges or reduction of
throughput levels. The service is not intended to be used to run
constant bandwidth usage without purchasing CIR.
4. CANCELLATION
If you need to cancel your Mobil Satellite Technologies Enterprise
ISP Service after the expiration of your current term,
you may send a written request to Mobil Satellite Technologies
Customer Service by fax to (757) 282-7702 30 days in advance of the anniversary date. To process
your cancellation request, we require that you provide the following:
(1) Written request submitted on company letterhead (if a business) by your billing
contact , (2) Your customer name as it appeared on your Order Form,
(3) Current phone number, (4) Reason for canceling service, and
(5) minimum notice of cancellation of 30
before the intended cancellation date.
Cancellation, downgrading or changing the Service before the end of the initial term of the agreement will result in an early termination fee.The early termination
fee is equal to the monthly billing amount of the service plan your
service was initiated on, multiplied by the number of whole or partial
months remaining in the current term. After the completion
of the current term, if cancelled in writing in accordance
with the above portion of Section Four, cancellation will be effective
at the end of the billing cycle following the billing cycle during
which the notice of cancellation is received and processed, providing
that any applicable cancellation fees have been paid by Customer.
Cancellations
can not be accepted and processed, and the service may not be canceled
until any applicable cancellation fee has been paid. Mobil Satellite
Technologies may suspend or terminate this Agreement, your account, or your
use of the Services
if Mobil Satellite Technologies in it's sole judgement believes
you have violated the Agreement, or if you fail to pay any charges
when due. Termination notice will be by email or U.S. Mail to the
address you provided for the Service. All notices to you shall be
deemed to be received and effective on the first (1st) day following the date of the
email or on the fourth (4th) day following the date of the mailing.
If you are dissatisfied with the Service or any related terms, conditions,
rules, policies, guidelines, or practices, your sole remedy is to
