Purple Fish Hosting shall not be obligated to notify any third party of the termination of your account or provide any termination assistance. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purple Fish Hosting shall have no obligation to forward any email messages, data, information or other content related to your use of the Services, and you acknowledge that all such email messages, data, information and content may be immediately deleted by Purple Fish Hosting.
1.4 Charges. You agree to pay all fees and charges (and applicable taxes) incurred which relate to your use of the Services, in accordance with the rates, terms and conditions established from time to time by Purple Fish Hosting.

1.6 Credit Card Payment. When you pay for the Services by credit card, you expressly authorize Purple Fish Hosting or its agents to charge all fees and charges incurred by you under this Agreement to such credit card, and such authorization will survive termination of this Agreement until there are no charges owing by you under this Agreement.

In addition, your failure to fully pay any fees and applicable taxes within ten (10) days after the applicable due date will be deemed a material breach of this Agreement, justifying Purple Fish Hosting 's immediate suspension of its performance of the Services and/or termination of this Agreement. You are responsible for any fees associated with reinstating the Services. Any such termination would not relieve you from paying past due fees. In the event of collection enforcement, you will be liable for any costs associated with such collection, including, without limitation, legal fees, court costs and collection agency fees.

Hosting space further may not be used as offsite storage of electronic files, electronic mail or FTP hosts. You are responsible for removing any files, e-mails or other data which do not meet these requirements, and for adhering to any usage requirements or limits allocated to your account(s). Failure to do so may result in removal and deletion of such materials (including without limitation files and e-mails), and/or in discontinuation of your services or account, which actions we may take in our sole discretion.
Purple Fish Hosting will monitor User's use of bandwidth, disk usage and other resources. Purple Fish Hosting, in its sole discretion, shall have the right to take any corrective action if User's utilization of bandwidth, disk usage or other resources exceeds the Agreed Usage, normal usage, or is used for other improper storage or usage. Such corrective action may include the assessment of additional charges, disconnection or discontinuance of any and all Services, removal or deletion of User's Web site, User Content, User's electronic mail and e-mail services and/or other materials and services or termination the User's account and of this Agreement, which actions may be taken in Purple Fish Hosting's sole and absolute discretion.
If Purple Fish Hosting takes any such corrective action under this section, User shall not be entitled to a refund or credit of any fees paid prior to such action.

User may not utilize: the Services to copy material from third parties (including text, graphics, music, videos or other copyrightable material) without proper authorization; the Services to misappropriate or infringe the patents, copyrights, trademarks or other intellectual property rights of any third party; the Services to traffic in illegal drugs, gambling, obscene materials or any other products or services that are prohibited under applicable law; the Services to export encryption software to points outside the United States (or, if User is outside the United States, to points outside the User's national jurisdiction) in violation of applicable export control laws; the Services to forge or misrepresent message headers, whether in whole or in part, to mask the originator of the message. If Purple Fish Hosting learns or discovers that User is violating any law related to User's Web site, User Content and/or User's electronic mail services, use of bandwidth, disk usage or other resources or Agreed Usage, Purple Fish Hosting may be obligated to or may in its discretion inform the necessary law enforcement and/or any related agency(ies) of such conduct and may provide such agency(ies) with information related to User, User's Web site, User Content and/or User's electronic mail.
User is responsible for complying with any usage requirements or limits for bandwidth, disk space or other resources, and monitoring such usage to ensure the Web site does not violate such requirements or exceed any such limits allocated for the account(s) and otherwise complies with this Agreement. Purple Fish Hosting will use commercially reasonable efforts to e-mail Users who are at or near their utilization limits, but Purple Fish Hosting does not take responsibility if e-mail notification(s) is not received by the User. Purple Fish Hosting reserves the right to discontinue service through the beginning of the next month for your account in the event that it exceeds the any such allotment.
2.6 Domain Names. As part of the Services, you will provide Purple Fish Hosting with a registered domain name or names or Purple Fish Hosting will register such domain name(s) selected by you, provided that such domain name is available for registration and does not violate any registrar's policies, or any law or regulation.

In the event of any dispute or cause of action arising out of or related to your domain name used in connection with the Services, upon your request Purple Fish Hosting will attempt to register with the registrar an alternative domain name chosen by you. You agree to be bound by the terms the registrar's then current domain name policy and/or the policies of the national DNS registration authorities to which you become subject upon registration of a domain name. The inability to use a domain name shall not entitle you to a refund by Purple Fish Hosting of any fees paid with respect to the registration of such unusable domain name. There is no charge for indefinite parking of domains on Purple Fish Hosting servers or to transfer to another service provider. However, in the event a domain that was registered by Purple Fish Hosting is transferred to another service provider, and requires manual intervention by Purple Fish Hosting support staff to complete the transfer, there may be an administrative transfer cost charged for each domain plus applicable taxes. Domain Parking does NOT include any hosting services.

Domain name payments are non-refundable. Once a domain name is registered, the WHOIS database stores the information and is kept there for a period of one year, until the date of renewal. Payment with respect to domain names will NOT be refunded or credited to your credit card. You are responsible for spelling a domain name correctly while registering it online. Purple Fish Hosting will not provide refunds or credits for misspelled domain names.
