You acknowledge that you accept this Agreement on behalf of yourself, your users, and all persons who use the equipment and/or service through this equipment. You have the sole responsibility for ensuring that all other users understand and comply with the terms and conditions of this agreement, whether such breach is the result of the use of the Service and/or Equipment by you or another user.

What happens if I break this agreement?

If you default or break this agreement, Interconnect Wireless may temporarily suspend or permanently close some or all of your services. Interconnect Wireless alone makes this decision. Suspending or closing your service does not limit Interconnect Wireless remedies or incur any liability to you (that is you don’t have to be credited downtime as a result of your defaulting). “Default” means failure on your part to comply with this agreement.

Interconnect Wireless Corp Responsibilities

Interconnect Wireless has certain responsibilities as a party to this agreement. Another section describes your responsibilities. Interconnect Wireless agrees to provide you with the service and required special equipment, provided that you comply with all the terms and conditions of this agreement. Interconnect Wireless also agrees to maintain the equipment provided by us. Another section details the terms over equipment. We will do our best to provide uninterrupted service. However, like any other telecommunications service provided, the service may experience temporary slowdowns or interruptions caused by overload, abuse, equipment modifications, upgrades, relocations, or repairs, and similar activities necessary for the proper operation and supply of the service, or disasters (see “force majeure” in another section). Interconnect Wireless will provide basic instructions on how to use the service. These instructions will be provided during the time of your installation by our installer. You are also entitled to technical support for the Interconnect Wireless provided equipment or service via phone or e-mail. We cannot provide technical support for any hardware, software or operating systems not provided by Interconnect Wireless Internet. If an Interconnect Wireless technician or representative is asked to provide support or repair for software or hardware that is not supplied by Interconnect Wireless

You will pay Interconnect Wireless in full for your use of the equipment and the service up to the effective date of termination of this agreement or the date on which the service and equipment have been disconnected and returned to Interconnect Wireless Internet, whichever is later. You will not receive a refund if you terminate service part-way through a month. You will allow Interconnect Wireless employees or contractors to access your premises to remove the equipment. This may mean coming into your house and climbing on your roof. We agree to arrange a time that is convenient for you and an Interconnect Wireless technician.

Payment

Interconnect Wireless will charge your credit card periodically as agreed when you signed up for service. You will be sent a statement by postal mail, or to the e-mail address provided when you signed up for service before payment is due. Payment will be deemed made when received by Interconnect Wireless Internet. If a credit card payment is declined by the payment service, it will be retried in 5 days’ time.

Payment may also be made by check. Checks may be made out to Interconnect Wireless and sent to 38 North Main Street, New Berlin, NY 13411

If your account becomes overdue, you will receive a notice by e-mail. At this time, Interconnect Wireless may take steps to reduce the service supplied or temporarily suspend the service and apply any applicable disconnection and/or reconnection fee. If your account remains overdue for more than 30 days, Interconnect Wireless may apply a late fee per month to the account. A service charge of up to $20 will be assessed for each check that is returned to Interconnect Wireless for insufficient funds. You will get your statement by e-mail supplied when you began service.

Term

This agreement becomes effective on the date on which you order your Interconnect Wireless service. Your first payment is due at the time your service is connected. This is also your start-of-service date. Your payments are due on the 15th day of every month. This agreement remains in effect for 12 months from your start-of-service date for all one (1) year agreements. At the end of the 12-month period, you must give 30 days’ notice that you wish to discontinue service or change to a month-to-month service plan. If no notice is given, the agreement will automatically renew for an additional 12-month period at the then-active rate for such service.

Closing your Account

To close your account, you must notify Interconnect Wireless Internet. To add or remove services, or close an account, you must identify yourself to Interconnect Wireless Corp’s satisfaction. This is to protect unauthorized changes by other persons to your account. If you wish to cancel or close your account and terminate this agreement before it expires, an early termination fee of $240 may be charged. This fee will reduce by $20 each month of the term, for 12-month terms. If you wish to cancel a month-to-month service, you must provide 30 days’ notice of the closure of your account. Services will still be charged during this time.

Credit for Down Time

Although we intend to maintain your service at all times, you have the right to be credited if through our negligence you lose service via Interconnect Wireless for more than 24 hours. In such a case, we will credit you 1/30 of the monthly base charge for each 24-hour period from the time of notice of interruption until the service restoration. The 24 hours must be continuous. You cannot add up shorter periods. To receive credit, you must notify the Interconnect Wireless office that your service is not working. Most types of outages do not qualify for credit. Please read the next section for your information.

Events that don’t qualify for credit

Most temporary service outages do not qualify for credit. You will not get credit for problems in the service caused by your own or others’ negligence or willful act (except as provided above) or for problems caused by weather or disaster-like situations. Please see force majeure. “Willful acts” include system failures caused by viruses, “hacking”, “cracking”, and other forms of remote malice. You will not get credit for loss of connectivity caused by technicians working to modify or repair Interconnect Wireless equipment. You will not get credit for a loss of connectivity less than 24 hours long. Interconnect Wireless may, however, issue credit on a case-by-case basis at Interconnect Wireless Corp’s discretion. If you believe that Interconnect Wireless has billed you in error, you must contact us or call within 30 days of the invoice or statement date. Refunds or adjustments will not be given for any charges that are more than 60 days old.

Deposit

Interconnect Wireless may require a deposit to commence the supply of service.

Credit for closed accounts

If you cancel your Interconnect Wireless service, we will refund that part of your latest payment which covers service up until your next invoice date excluding the 30 day notice period. Your setup and installation fees are non-refundable. You will always be refunded at the rate you paid. That is, if you got a discount, you will be refunded at the discount level, not at the standard level.

For this agreement to be valid, your computer must meet minimum requirements (as determined solely by Interconnect Wireless Internet). It must be technically and operationally compatible with the service. Interconnect Wireless Corp’s responsibility for your Internet connectivity stops at the downstream end of the equipment. You are responsible for providing equipment capable of receiving and transmitting electronic data through a standard port.

You may access the Internet via Interconnect Wireless from secondary computers on a home network within the limits of the Acceptable Use Policy. Your home network is not part of your Internet Wireless service or equipment.

Giving someone outside your household or business your Interconnect Wireless login name and password is strictly prohibited.

Limitation of Liability

INTERCONNECT WIRELESS CORP LIABILITY REGARDING YOUR USE OF SERVICES OR EQUIPMENT, OR THE FAILURE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES OR EQUIPMENT, IS LIMITED TO THE CHARGES YOU INCUR FOR SERVICES DURING THE AFFECTED PERIOD. THIS MEANS WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (SUCH AS LOST PROFITS OR LOST BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES), PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR ATTORNEY’S FEES.

You agree that Interconnect Wireless will not be liable or responsible for any third-party claims or damages that arise from your use of another person’s use of services or internet access. Further, you agree to indemnify and reimburse us for all costs and expenses related to the defense of any such claims, including attorney’s fees. This provision will continue to apply after the Agreement ends.

Equipment supplied by Interconnect Wireless Internet

Interconnect Wireless agrees to maintain the equipment in working condition for the lifetime of this agreement. In case of equipment failure, Interconnect Wireless will troubleshoot, diagnose, repair, or replace the equipment within 48 hours. All equipment supplied by Interconnect Wireless Internet, except for any item that you buy and pay for in full, remains the property of Interconnect Wireless Internet. You may not mortgage, sell, transfer, lease, encumber, or assign all or part of the equipment. If you lose or break the equipment or turn it over to someone else as described in the previous paragraph, you must pay Interconnect Wireless the full retail cost of the repair or replacement. If Interconnect Wireless spends money in the effort to get the equipment back, you must also pay those costs. You will not modify, tamper with, or move the equipment. If you need the equipment moved, you must contact Interconnect Wireless and ask to have an Interconnect Wireless technician or contractor move the equipment for you. You may be charged for the callout, labor and materials required to move the equipment. If any equipment, including network components, is moved or modified by anyone other than Interconnect Wireless personnel (employed or contracted), and damage to the equipment results in Interconnect Wireless personnel or contractors being called out to your location to repair or replace it, you will be charged $150.00 for the visit in addition to any other charges specified in the Terms of Service. You authorized Interconnect Wireless and its employees, agents, contractors and representatives to enter your premises to install, maintain, inspect, repair, and remove the equipment. Interconnect Wireless agrees to arrange a mutually convenient time with you for these activities.
