DEEPMAIL,
INC.
TERMS
OF SERVICE
DeepMail, Inc. ("DeepMail") provides its services
to you subject to the following Terms of Service ("TOS")
and DeepMail's Privacy Policy.
In addition, when using specific Services, you will be subject
to any guidelines or rules applicable to these Services, which
DeepMail may communicate to you or post from time to time. These
guidelines or rules and DeepMail's Privacy
Policy shall be deemed part of the TOS. You cannot use the
Services until you have accepted the TOS.
1.
DESCRIPTION
OF THE SERVICES
DeepMail
currently provides online email and related services (the "Services").
Unless explicitly stated otherwise, any new features that augment
or enhance the current Services will be subject to the TOS.
2.
WHAT
YOU MUST DO TO USE THE SERVICES
In order
to use the Services, you must obtain access to the World Wide
Web, either directly or through devices that access Web-based
content, and pay any service fees associated with such access.
You must provide all equipment necessary to make such connection
to the World Wide Web, including a computer and modem or other
access device(s).
3.
YOUR
REGISTRATION INFORMATION MUST BE ACCURATE, CURRENT AND COMPLETE
In accepting
the TOS, completing the registration process and using the Services,
you become the master account holder. As the master account
holder, you agree to: (a) provide true, accurate, current and
complete information about yourself and any sub-account holders
as prompted by the registration form for the Services (such
information being the "Registration Data") and (b)
maintain and promptly update the Registration Data to keep it
true, accurate, current and complete. If you provide any information
that is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, or DeepMail
has reasonable grounds to believe that such information is untrue,
inaccurate, not current or incomplete, DeepMail has the right
to suspend or terminate your account and to refuse any and all
current or future use of the Services (or any portion thereof).
In order to register for the Services, you must be at least
18 years old. If you are not yet 18 years old, you may still
use the Services under the condition that the account is created
and registered by your parent or guardian.
DeepMail
provides you with a limited, non-exclusive license for no more
than the term of your subscription period to use the email address
you select for your master account. DeepMail also allows you
to sign up additional sub-accounts or email addresses of your
choice. You may not use an email address that is used by someone
else, and your email address cannot be vulgar, or be used in
any way that violates other parts of the TOS. As the master
account holder, you are responsible for all activity on your
account and on any of the sub-accounts. Because you are responsible
for all use of your account, you should supervise the use of
your account by others. It is important that you not reveal
your password to other users and DeepMail will never ask you
for your password. You agree not to reveal your password to
other users and you agree to indemnify and hold DeepMail harmless
for any improper or illegal use of your account. This includes
illegal or improper use by someone to whom you have given permission
to use your account. Your account is at risk if you let someone
use it inappropriately.
4.
YOUR
OBLIGATION TO PAY FEES
You agree
to pay all subscription, service and use fees, if any, DeepMail
charges you for the Services. All fees are payable by credit
card. For most billing plans we will be charging your designated
card every month, but some charges may accumulate on your account
before they are charged to your card. Every time you use the
Services, you re-affirm that DeepMail is authorized to charge
your credit card for the Services. You agree to pay all costs
(including attorney's fees), if any, incurred by DeepMail in
collecting overdue fees from you, and to pay a late charge on
any overdue fees at a rate equal to the lesser of 1.5% per month
or the maximum rate allowed under applicable law. You also agree
to pay all foreign, federal, state and local taxes and surcharges
applicable to your access, use or receipt of the Services. If
you have registered for the Services as a trial member, you
should understand that your free trial starts on the date of
your initial sign-on and to avoid being charged a subscription
fee, you must cancel your account before the end of that trial
period. As the master account holder, you are responsible for
all charges, fees, duties, taxes, and assessments arising out
of the use of the Services. This includes any applicable charges,
fees, duties, taxes, assessments and purchases made by you or
anyone you allow to use your account or sub-accounts, including
your children, other members of your family or friends, employees
and co-workers. This means that, unless your account or credit
card information is obtained unlawfully or fraudulently by someone
other than those authorized to use your account or sub-accounts,
you will be responsible for all usage and purchases under your
account or sub-accounts. DeepMail may provide you access to
third-party vendors, who provide content, goods and/or services
on the Service or the Internet. Any separate charges or obligations
you incur in your dealings with these third parties are your
responsibility and are not part of the fee charged for the Services.
5.
ACCESS,
PASSWORDS AND SECURITY
As the master
account holder you may provide and assign access and passwords
to the number of users you designate under your account. You
will be responsible for the confidentiality and use of your
user name(s), password(s), email address(es), and account number(s).
You will be responsible for all electronic communications, including
account registration and other account holder information, email,
and other data ("Electronic Communications") entered
through or under your user name(s), password(s), email address(es),
or account number(s). DeepMail will act as though any Electronic
Communications it receives under your user name(s), password(s),
email address(es), or account number(s) will have been sent
by you. You agree immediately to notify DeepMail if you become
aware of any loss or theft or unauthorized use of any of your
user name(s), password(s), email address(es), and/or account
number(s).

between you and DeepMail. You and DeepMail agree to submit to
the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located

to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the TOS shall
not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision
of the TOS is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to
be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should
endeavor to give effect to the parties' intentions as reflected
in the provision, and the other provisions of the TOS shall
remain in full force and effect. You agree that regardless of
any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action
arising out of or related to use of the Services or the TOS

the TOS are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual
effect.
