Terms and Conditions
- Effective September 2003 |
These are the standard terms and conditions
of supply of web hosting offered on the
Simple Internet Technologies(here-in reffered
to as "Simple I.T.") web site
at http://www.SimpleIT.com.au/ ("the Service").
These terms apply to you as a user of the
Service ("Client" or "you"). Please read
these terms and conditions carefully. It
is a condition of your use of the Service
that you comply with these terms and conditions.
1. Terms and Amendment Procedure
1.1 These are the terms upon which we agree
to provide the Service to the Client. The
agreement made between Simple I.T. and client
with these terms commences on the date of
original upfront milestone payment invoice
when your order for Services was accepted
by Simple I.T.
1.2 We may vary these terms, the amount
we charge for any Service, or the terms
of the operation of the Service, at any
time by general notice on a page of the
internet referred to on the home page of
our web site at http://www.SimpleIT.com.au/. The changes
will become effective upon publication of
the notice. Where we vary the prices for
Services, we will give at least 14 days
notice of the change by the same means,
and the new prices will apply at the end
of that period.
1.3 If you use the Service after that publication,
your use will constitute an acceptance of
the amended terms.
1.4 These terms constitute the agreement
in its entirety and supersede prior agreements.
1.5 We may from time to time run promotions
and make special offers of limited time
duration ("Promotions"). All Promotions
are offered subject to their terms and may

discretion. The terms of a promotion will
override these terms to the extent of any
inconsistency.

for more than 30 minutes we will post details
of the scheduled maintenance to the Web
Host System News at least 48 hours in advance
of the maintenance.
2.4 Unscheduled Maintenance - We may need
to perform unscheduled maintenance. If unscheduled
maintenance requires the Service to be offline
for more than 30 minutes, we will post details
of the event to the Web Host System News
after the maintenance has been completed.
2.5 Archiving of Data - We will archive
your data onto backup mechanisms on a regular
basis for the purposes of disaster recovery.
In the event of equipment failure or data
corruption, we will restore from the last
known good archive. In the event of corruption
of all of our archives, or in the event
that an old archive is used to restore data,
you should be prepared to upload your data
to your web site. You must maintain a recent
copy of your data at your premises at all
times. We will not be liable for incomplete,
out-of-date, corrupt or otherwise deficient
client data recovered from our backups.
