THIS AGREEMENT IS DIVIDED INTO TWO PARTS:

  1. General Terms and Conditions: general provisions for all clients of Wynnsdale Consulting

  2. Terms and Conditions for Hosting Services: apply to email and web hotel services

You acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by all the terms and conditions in each of the three parts of the Agreement that applies to you. Submission of your domain name registration application, transfer application, and/or application for hosting services constitute acceptance of all the terms and conditions contained and referenced herein.

GENERAL TERMS & CONDITIONS

  1. Fees and payment:

    All services provided by Wynnsdale Consulting are invoiced according to the fees published on wynncon.com/hosting-prices at the time of purchase. Wynnsdale Consulting reserves the right to modify fees, surcharges, and renewal fees or to institute new fees at any time, for any reason, at its sole discretion. Unpaid invoices for delivered services shall attract a late payment fee and interest at a rate according to Norwegian law. Wynnsdale Consulting reserves the right to transfer payment claims to a third party. Except as provided herein, all fees are non-refundable, in whole or in part, even if your domain registration or service is suspended, cancelled or transferred prior to the end of your then-current term. In the event of a missing payment or charge-back to Wynnsdale Consulting by the credit card company for the credit card used for payment of the registration fee or transfer fee, you agree and acknowledge that the ownership of the domain in question may be transferred to Wynnsdale Consulting and that we reserve all rights regarding such domain including, without limitation, the right to make the domain available to other parties for purchase.

  2. Term of service, renewal and termination:

    Unless otherwise specified, all services provided by Wynnsdale Consulting are for a one-year initial term, and are renewable thereafter for successive one-year terms. you acknowledge and agree that the renewal fee may be higher or lower than the price you paid for the then-current term of service. A renewal invoice is normally sent to the billing address 30-60 days prior to expiry of the current term, giving you ample time to cancel or make changes to current services. Transferring a domain name away from Wynnsdale Consulting to another registrar or service provider is regarded as a cancellation of services, unless you have informed Wynnsdale Consulting in advance that the services are to be continued. If you have not received a renewal invoice by the expiry date of the current term, it is your responsibility to contact Wynnsdale Consulting and request that the services be renewed and a renewal invoice issued.

  3. Accuracy of information:

Failure by you for any reason to provide Wynnsdale Consulting with accurate and reliable information at any time, or to timely respond to any inquiries to verify the information you provide, shall be considered a material breach of this Agreement.

  4. Obligation to keep information up to date:

    It is your responsibility to ensure that all contact and address information is current and valid for all your domain names and related services. Changes to contact and address information should be made via our support department available at support@wynncon.com.

    Free customer support is available with all services provided by Wynnsdale Consulting. Support requests can be sent to support@wynncon.com. All requests are normally answered within 1-2 working days, but there is no guarantee of this.
