You are required to perform all necessary security configuration and management tasks (1) for Your site(s) and all domains, web pages or IP addresses which You are hosting through the Services, and (2) to protect Your Content (defend below) and data, including that of Your customers and/or end users hosted through the Services. You are responsible for management of updates and security patches, any application software or utilities installed, any flees accessible via Your site(s), and the configuration of any LxRoot-provided security utilities.

At the time of initial registration, you will select from the list of available Services the service plan(s) to which You wish to subscribe (each a “Subscription”). All Subscriptions to Services are subject to formal acceptance by LxRoot. Your Subscription to the Services will be deemed accepted by LxRoot when LxRoot delivers a confirmation of the Subscription to You. LxRoot reserves the right to refuse to provide You with any Service for any reason. Notwithstanding Our Uptime Guarantee, LxRoot also reserves the right to interrupt access to the Services to perform regular and emergency maintenance as needed. You may order additional Services at any time, provided that You agree to pay the then-current fees for such additional Services. All additional services shall be considered "Services" hereunder. All Services provided are subject to availability and to these Terms.

For as long as you agree to these Terms and abide by them, you may use the Services. These Terms apply to all Users of the Service, including Visitors and Registered Users, who are also contributors of User Content. The Services are licensed, not sold, to you.

(a) Grant of a Limited License. The Services are protected by copyright laws throughout the world. Subject to your agreement, and continuing compliance with these Terms, and any other relevant LxRoot policies, LxRoot grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sub licensable, revocable limited license subject to the limitations below to use the Services and/or download, and use a copy of any Apps or client-software on a device or computer that you own or control and to run such copy solely for your own internal business or individual purposes only. You agree not to use the Services for any other purpose.

Restrictions. You may not: (i) remove any copyright, trademark or other proprietary notices from any portion of the Services; (ii) reproduce, modify, prepare derivative works based upon, distribute, license, lease, sell, resell, transfer, publicly display, publicly perform, transmit, stream, broadcast or otherwise exploit the Services except as expressly permitted by LxRoot; (iii) decompile, reverse engineer or disassemble the Services except as may be permitted by applicable law; (iv) link to, mirror or frame any portion of the Services except as expressly permitted by LxRoot; (v) cause or launch any programs or scripts for the purpose of scraping, indexing, surveying, or otherwise data mining any portion of the Services or unduly burdening or hindering the operation and/or functionality of any aspect of the Services; or (vi) attempt to gain unauthorized access to or impair any aspect of the Services or its related systems or networks.

(a) Subscriptions. Your Subscription or commencement of the Services shall begin upon confirmation to You and receipt of lawful funds, whichever comes earlier. The Subscription initial term's length is chosen by You and shall be indicated when You subscribe to Our Services. The Subscription may not be terminated by You during the Initial Term (and any renewals thereof) except in the event of a breach by LxRoot. After the Initial Term, the Subscription shall automatically renew for successive terms, equal in length to the Initial Term, unless terminated or canceled by either party as provided herein.

(b) Pricing. Subject to Section 3(c), LxRoot reserves the right to change prices for paid Subscriptions at any time and does not provide price protection or refunds in the event of promotions or price decreases. Any pricing changes will become effective after your then-current Subscription expires or terminates. You understand that if We agree to provide Services to You in the future after your Subscription terminates for any reason, the amount You paid under any prior term or time period is not determinative of the amount You will pay should We provide Services to You again. It is Your responsibility to check Our Site for plan or price changes should You wish to take advantage of plan or price changes which may have occurred. LxRoot does not automatically update Your Subscription plan. All upgrades or downgrades will be performed at Your request and may include modification Fees (defend in Section 7(a)) or require reinitiating service with Us.

(c) Automatic Renewal Terms: To facilitate continuity of the Services to you, each paid Subscription contains automatic renewal terms. LxRoot will automatically renew your paid Subscription as per the Subscription period of your choosing (each a “Subscription Term”), on the anniversary of that date that LxRoot first charges your Account for the first Subscription fee, and, as authorized by you during the Subscription sign-up process, LxRoot will charge your Account with the applicable Subscription fee and any sales or similar taxes that may be imposed on your Subscription fee payment (unless you cancel prior to the anniversary date). Each Subscription renewal period is for the same Subscription Term as the prior one, unless otherwise agreed between you and LxRoot. IF YOU CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION, YOUR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICES WILL BE SHUT OFF ONCE YOUR THEN CURRENT SUBSCRIPTION TERM EXPIRES.

LxRoot reserves the right to modify pricing at any time (but not the price in effect for your then-current Subscription Term), upon advance notice to you. If you have not canceled your Subscription or turned off the auto-renew function within the specified time after receiving notice of a price change, your Subscription will auto-renew at the price indicated in your notice.

(d) CANCELLATION TERMS: YOU MAY CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION AT ANY TIME, AND SUCH CANCELLATION SHALL BECOME EFFECTIVE UPON EXPIRATION OF YOUR THEN-CURRENT SUBSCRIPTION TERM. You agree and understand that you will be charged Subscription fees until the expiration of your then-current Subscription Term and SUBSCRIPTION FEES WILL NOT BE REFUNDED, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, SUBJECT TO APPLICABLE LAW. You will not be eligible for a pro-rated refund of any portion of the Subscription fees paid for any unused days of the then-current Subscription Term. If you have any problems or concerns with your cancellation please contact us at support@LxRoot.com for assistance.

(a) If you purchase any Services that we offer for a fee, either on a one-time or on a Subscription basis (collectively “Fees”), you agree and consent to LxRoot’s use of third-party payment providers for billing and processing online payments (see below), and you agree to pay the applicable Fees for the Services (including, without limitation, periodic fees for Subscriptions) as they become due, plus all related taxes, and to reimburse us for all collection costs and interest for any overdue amounts. Unless separately negotiated by You and Us, and confirmed by separate written agreement, the initial and recurring Fees for the Services selected by You shall be as provided in the initial on-line order form. All set-up fees and special programming fees are non-refundable. Unless otherwise indicated, we may invoice Fees for Services in advance. Failure to make payment of Fees for Services when due may result in the suspension or termination of Services.

(b) Services are billed on an automatic, auto-renewal and recurring basis unless and until you follow LxRoot's cancellation procedure set forth in this Agreement. Your obligation to pay fees continues through the end of the Subscription Term (defined in Section 6(c)). Our Subscriptions may be subject to usage limits. You agree and understand that we verify use of the Service periodically. If as part of a routine verification process, we determine that Usage exceeds the current amount of usage limits purchased, we reserve the right to invoice you for the additional use. We may contact you to discuss your current plan and other options available to you. You agree to upgrade to a higher usage plan if necessary.

(c) At the time of registration, you must select a payment method. By providing a payment method, you expressly authorize LxRoot to charge said payment method at regular intervals subject to Your Particular Subscription. LxRoot reserves the right to contract with a third party to process all payments. Such third party may impose additional terms and conditions governing payment processing. If You do not pay all Fees when due, your account will be deemed past due. For any past due Fees, LxRoot reserves the right to charge You interest at five percent (5%) or the highest rate allowed by applicable law, whichever is lower, per month of the unpaid amount, until paid.

(d) You agree to pay any and all taxes, including personal property, value added, or sales taxes, resulting from Your use of the Services. LxRoot is not responsible for any bank fees incurred by You due to Your use of check cards, automatic payment services, insufficient funds, and any and all other fees your financial institution may impose due to Your use of the Services. If LxRoot should receive less than full payment of the Fees due to taxes, bank charges, transfer fees, or the like, LxRoot will invoice You for the difference between payment received and the Fees due. You also agree to pay all attorney and collection fees arising from LxRoot's efforts to collect any past-due Fees.

(e) If you cancel any Service prior to the expiration of the pre-paid Fees, you understand and agree that LxRoot, at its sole discretion, may not issue You any refund whatsoever, including but not limited to any remaining pre-paid Fees, set up Fees, and/or special programming Fees. Any refunds, if any, will be refunded to the original method of payment only.

(f) If you do not pay on time or if LxRoot cannot charge your payment method for any reason, LxRoot reserves the right to either suspend or terminate your Subscription, access to the Services, and/or Account and terminate these Terms.

(g) Coupons and Discount Codes. From time to time, LxRoot may offer coupons or other discount codes which may be used when signing up for Services with Us. Coupons and discount codes are for first-time customers of LxRoot only and must be used at the time of Your initial purchase with Us – they may not be applied after commencement of the Services. Unless expressly provided, such coupons and discount codes may not be used toward upgrades to Your account. Any account We deem to be attempting unauthorized coupon or discount code use may be subject to Termination for Cause (see Section 9).

We may offer programs allowing our users to earn service credits and rewards (“Rewards”) on their Accounts. Please refer to our Referral Program Terms as these may be amended from time to time, before participating in our Rewards’ program. The Referral Program Terms are hereby incorporated by reference.

(a) LxRoot may terminate your Subscription in its sole discretion at any time for any reason or no reason ("Termination without Cause"). In such case, LxRoot will provide You with thirty (30) days written notice before the discontinuation of Services. If LxRoot cancels your Subscription pursuant to any of the terms outlined in these Terms, with the exception of Termination without Cause, LxRoot shall not refund to You any fees paid or prepaid in advance of such cancellation and You shall be obligated to pay all fees and charges accrued prior to the effectiveness of such cancellation. In the event that LxRoot terminates the Agreement for cause, all prepaid Fees will be forfeited and are not refundable. The termination of your Subscription does not relieve You of Your obligation to pay any Fees accrued or payable to LxRoot prior to the effective date of termination of your Subscription.

(b) In addition to LxRoot's right to terminate your Subscription provided elsewhere in these Terms, LxRoot may terminate your Subscription effective immediately if, based on LxRoot's sole judgment, it determines that You or any of Your end users: (i) have breached the Acceptable Use Policy ("AUP") or Anti-Spam Policy, (ii) have infringed or violated any intellectual property right or privacy or publicity right of a third party, (iii) have not complied with any applicable law, statute or regulation, or (iv) have uploaded, published or disseminated any images, text, graphics, code or video which LxRoot considers illegal or high risk, in its discretion, or (v) breached these Terms. Nothing contained in these Terms is intended to, or shall, impose any duty or obligation upon LxRoot to monitor or review Your Content (defined in Section 12) or the content of Your end users at any time. You remain solely responsible for Your Content, and any liability generated therefrom.

(c) The termination of your Subscription will end Your access to the Services and Your license to the Materials. LxRoot shall not be liable to You or to any third party for termination of the Services permitted under these Terms. Upon termination of your Subscription, LxRoot reserves the right to maintain copies of Your data flees and records for archival purposes but does not undertake any obligation to do so. LxRoot reserves the right to impose an early termination charge for all Services terminated prior to the last day of the billing cycle.

(d) If either party cancels or terminates your Subscription for any reason, you shall be solely responsible for making all necessary arrangements for securing a replacement service provider and timely moving all electronic data, graphics, images, video or text to the new service provider.

(e) LxRoot will not have any liability whatsoever to you for any suspension or termination, including for deletion of Content. All provisions of the Terms, which by their nature should survive, shall survive termination of the Service, including without limitation, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, and limitation of liability. You may close your Account by using the feature provided in the Services or, in the alternative, by emailing us at support@lxroot.com. We will proceed to close your Account and send you an email confirmation.

LxRoot does not permit copyright-infringing activities and infringement of intellectual property rights on the Services, and pursuant to the safe-harbor provisions provided by the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (“DMCA”), LxRoot will remove User Content if properly notified that such User Content infringes on another's intellectual property rights (please refer to our Copyright Policy). LxRoot reserves the right to remove User Content without prior notice.

11.1 Content.

(a) You are responsible for the information, text, opinions, messages, comments, audio visual works, motion pictures, photographs, animation, videos, graphics, sounds, music, software, Apps, and any other content or material that You or your end users submit, upload, post, host, store, or otherwise make available (“Make Available”) on or through the Services (collectively, “Your Content,” “Content” or “User Content”). You may not Make Available on the Services any material protected by copyright, trademark, or any other proprietary right without the express permission of the owner of such copyright, trademark or other proprietary right owned by a third party, and the burden of determining whether any such right protects any material is on you. You shall be solely liable for any damage resulting from any infringement of copyrights, trademarks, proprietary rights, violation of contract, privacy or publicity rights or any other harm resulting from any User Content that you make or submit. As between you and us, you own your User Content and you have full responsibility for all User Content you make or submit, including its legality, reliability and appropriateness, while using the Services. You hereby grant to LxRoot a non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, fully paid-up, worldwide license (including the right to sublicense through multiple tiers) to use, reproduce, process, adapt, publicly perform, publicly display, modify, prepare derivative works, publish, transmit and distribute each of your User Content, or any portion thereof, in any form, medium or distribution method now known or hereafter existing, known or developed, and otherwise use and commercialize the User Content in any way that LxRoot deems appropriate, without any further consent, notice and/or compensation to you or to any third parties, for purposes of providing the Services to you.

(b) LxRoot will not actively monitor Content being hosted by LxRoot, although LxRoot, at its sole discretion, may elect to electronically monitor its network and may disclose any content or records concerning Your Account as necessary to satisfy any law, regulation, or other governmental request or to properly operate Our network and protect any of Our customers. LxRoot will investigate complaints of a violation of a third-party right or of the AUP. LxRoot will cooperate with those attempting to minimize Internet abuse and reserves the right to institute "filters" or other mechanisms for that purpose. LxRoot will cooperate with law enforcement authorities and reserves the right to notify such authorities if it suspects that You or any of Your end users are engaged in illegal activities. Nothing contained in this Section, or anywhere in these Terms, is intended to bestow any rights on any third party, and no third parties shall be entitled to enforce any terms of these Terms between us, the parties.

(c) You acknowledge and expressly agree that LxRoot will not be liable to You or any of Your end users for any action LxRoot takes to remove or restrict access to the Services for any alleged violation of the AUP, or exercising its rights as a Good Samaritan under the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (47 U.S.C. § 230(d)) or under the DMCA.

LxRoot may, at its sole discretion, immediately terminate Your Account and access to the Services, and terminate these Terms for cause, if Your conduct violates our Policies (See Section 10), or if any of Your end users' or downstream customers' conduct violate such Policies. We respect the intellectual property rights of all parties and have adopted a policy regarding termination of repeat copyright infringers under the DMCA (See Section 11).

(e) Child Pornography. LxRoot takes the issue of child pornography very seriously, and any potential harm to minors using our Services is strictly prohibited. Content that is or may be perceived to be child pornography will be immediately removed from public access upon notification or detection by Us. Additionally, LxRoot reserves the right to terminate any Account whose website(s) hosts or links to child pornography immediately and without notice to You. If the account is a LxRoot reseller account, the account will be suspended, and the reseller will be directed to terminate the responsible account. You agree to cooperate in any such efforts. Content or communications seeking to solicit, lure or entice minors into sexual activity or lewd behavior is also strictly prohibited, and will be treated the same as, or similar to, child pornography, consistent with applicable law. You agree to cooperate with LxRoot in any effort to investigate, disable or remove such Content originating with Your end users. Consistent with federal law, LxRoot will cooperate with law enforcement authorities and will notify such authorities if it suspects that You or any of Your downstream customers or end users are engaged in any such illegal activities.

In accordance with the reporting requirements of 18 U.S.C.
§ 2258A, We will report to the CyberTipline (report.cybertip.org) any actual knowledge of apparent violations of 18 U.S.C §§ 2251, 2251A, 2252, 2252A, 2252B, 2260, or 1466A. If You suspect any instances of child pornography appearing on sites hosted by LxRoot, We encourage You to send such reports to Our abuse address at abuse@LxRoot.com, and include the flee name and/or URL (or other location on the Customer's site), victim (if known), date of birth, date of production, and any other information about the suspect image(s). Do not send the image(s) in question. Alternately, you may use the CyberTipline to report suspected child pornography. Reports involving sites not hosted by LxRoot should be directed to law enforcement or to a cooperating child pornography organization such as: https://www.asacp.org/index.php?content=report.

(f) Content appropriate for Minors and Section 230 Notice: You acknowledge Your responsibility to prevent minors under Your care from accessing harmful or inappropriate material on Your site and services. You agree not to allow minors to view any such materials and agree to take responsible measures to prevent them from doing so. Numerous commercial online safety filters are available which may help users limit minors' access to harmful or inappropriate material. Pursuant to 47 U.S.C. §230(d), you are hereby informed that you can research such services at websites such as www.asacp.org. Please note that the Service makes no representation or warranty regarding any of the products or services referenced on such sites and recommends that the user conduct appropriate due diligence before purchasing or installing any online filter. You agree to take particular steps to prevent minors from viewing these kind of materials if Your computer can be accessed by a minor. Finally, you agree that if You are a parent or guardian of a minor child, it is Your responsibility, not Ours, to keep any age-restricted content on Our Site from being displayed or accessed by Your children or wards.

Pursuant to the Communications Decency Act ("CDA"), 47 U.S.C. § 230(c)(1), and court decisions interpreting the scope of the CDA, you acknowledge and understand that LxRoot operates as the provider of an interactive computer service. Thus, we are immune from, and cannot be held responsible for, claims arising from the publication of Your Content (including third-party content published on Your web site(s)). We do not create such content, and We are not responsible for the publication of remarks or communications of You or third-parties that may arguably rise to the level of being actionable under federal or state laws including, but not limited to, the publication of material that might be considered defamatory, or violate of privacy or publicity rights. Note, that federal law allows LxRoot to remove any content found to be offensive, defamatory, obscene or otherwise violate of Our policies, without impacting Our immunity status as an interactive computer service. Nothing contained in this Section is intended to limit or alter the immunity from claims provided by Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. In the event that any court finds that any third-party communication or third-party content hosted by us falls outside of the realm of the immunity provided by the CDA, this shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any legal protections provided by Section 230 for any and all other content posted on our Site or hosted via our Services.

11.2 Specific Requirements for Service Providers and User-Generated Content Subscribers.

(a) If You use Our Services for any site, sub-domain, page or business model that allows Your end users or customers to control or upload material to Internet space assigned to You by Us, you shall be deemed to be acting as a "Service Provider" with respect to such services and/or customers. Service Providers include but are not limited to customers which; (i) resell bandwidth as hosts to third parties; (ii) operate user-generated content sites such as forums, "tube" sites, review sites, and online classified advertising sites; (iii) operate search engines; or

(iv) operate peer-to-peer flee sharing networks. Customers acting as a Service Provider for third-party users shall comply with the following provisions:

You shall notify Us of all domains, web pages or IP addresses for which You are acting as a Service Provider.

You shall comply with 17 U.S.C. §512 of the DMCA by properly designating an agent for receipt of copyright infringement notices, and You shall publish a link on the home page of any website for which You are a Service Provider to a DMCA Notice and Takedown Policy, identifying the website's designated agent and associated contact information. "Service Providers" within the meaning of 17 U.S.C. § 512(k)(1) require that any DMCA Notices relating to alleged infringement of a LxRoot Service Provider Customer be submitted directly to the DMCA Agent designated by such Customer.

You shall provide Us with a current link to Your DMCA Notice and Takedown Policy and further advise Us of any changes to Your Designated Agent contact information. This shall be a continuing obligation for as long as You use Our Services.

It is the policy of LxRoot to provide any infringement notices it receives relating to Service Provider subscribers directly to the subscriber's Designated DMCA Agent, and to further notify any copyright claimants of the identity and contact information for such Agent. Failure to maintain compliance with this section shall constitute a material breach of these Terms.

(b) In keeping with Our DMCA policies and obligations set forth above, You understand, agree, and expressly allow Us to access and subsequently disable public access to any flees or data residing on the server, disk, partition, or other data space under Your control when such flees or data, in Our discretion: (i) have been identified in a substantially- compliant DMCA notice under 17 U.S.C. § 512; or (ii) when We become aware of facts or circumstances indicating that such flees or data are infringing on the copyrights or other intellectual property rights of third parties. Given that Our customers may employ various methods of securing flees in conjunction with Our Services, and in an attempt to avoid material disruption of Our Customers’ Services, you agree that You will provide Us with Your preferred procedure for disabling access to material identified under this provision. If We forward You a substantially-compliant DMCA Notice and which concerns content under Your control, you are obligated under these Terms to immediately disable or remove access to such content. Irrespective of the above, we reserve the right to disable or remove access to such content, in Our discretion, and without claim of damage or injury by You. While We will attempt to simply disable access to such Content without fully deleting it, or suspending all services to your Account, we make no warranties concerning harm or injury to the Content, and reserve the right to take any necessary actions to disable access to the identified material, including suspension or termination of Services. It is therefore in Your best interest to promptly respond to any DMCA Notices You may receive. Should You or Your web site's users feel that such DMCA Notice was erroneously or improperly sent, You must follow the Counter- Notification procedure set forth in our Copyright Policy, and wait the required period of time, before We allow public access to the content to resume.

(c) Nothing contained in this Section, or any part of these Terms, shall constitute legal or professional advice regarding any matter referenced therein. You are responsible for obtaining your own legal advice regarding compliance with any and all applicable laws or regulations.

11.3 Content that you Make Publicly Available.

(a) In addition to the license granted in Section 11.1(a), You also authorize others to use the User Content that you publicly share or Make Available through the Services.

You may delete, or request deletion of your User Content at any time, unless you have shared such User Content with others and they have not deleted it, or it was copied or stored by other Users. Any User Content you submit is at your own risk of loss, and if shared publicly, non-confidential.

(c) LxRoot agrees to use any personally identifiable information contained in any of your User Content in accordance with LxRoot’s Privacy Policy, to the extent applicable. Additionally, please note that certain information, statements, data, and content (such as photographs) which you may submit to LxRoot, or groups you choose to join might, or are likely to, reveal your gender, ethnic origin, nationality, age, and/or other personal information about you. You acknowledge that your submission of any User Content is voluntary on your part.

(d) We may modify or adapt your User Content in order to transmit, display or distribute them over computer networks and in various media and/or make changes to the User Content as necessary to conform and adapt them to any requirements or limitations of any networks, devices, services or media.

(e) If you use any “rating” feature of the Services, as applicable, and/or if you send or transmit any communications, comments, questions, suggestions, or related materials to LxRoot, whether by letter, email, telephone, or otherwise (collectively, “Feedback”), suggesting or recommending changes to the Services, including, without limitation, new features or functionality relating thereto, all such Feedback is, and will be treated as, non-confidential and non-proprietary. You hereby assign all right, title, and interest in, and LxRoot is free to use, without any attribution or compensation to you, any ratings submitted within the Services, and any ideas, know-how, concepts, techniques, or other intellectual property and proprietary rights contained in the Feedback, whether or not patentable, for any purpose whatsoever, including but not limited to, developing, manufacturing, having manufactured, licensing, marketing, and selling, directly or indirectly, products and services using such Feedback.

You understand and agree that LxRoot may use any of this Feedback in aggregated or non-aggregated from, however LxRoot is not obligated to use, display, reproduce, or distribute any such ratings, ideas, know-how, concepts, or techniques contained in the Feedback, and you have no right to compel such use, display, reproduction, or distribution

(f) Forums and messaging. LxRoot may offer various forums where you can post your observations and comments on designated topics. By offering this feature, LxRoot is merely acting as an intermediary and is not responsible and shall not be liable for such communications.

There are no licenses by implication. If you breach any of these Terms, the above license will terminate automatically and you must stop using the Services and immediately destroy any Materials downloaded or printed from the Service. All Services provided by LxRoot may only be used for lawful purposes.

(c) As between You and LxRoot, LxRoot acknowledges that it claims no proprietary rights in or to Your Content.

(f) You understand that even a nominal amount of damages may require the expenditure of extensive legal fees, travel expenses, costs, and other amounts that may dwarf the liquidated damages themselves. You agree that You will pay all of these fees and costs.

(a) Backups & data loss. You agree that Your use of LxRoot's Services is at Your own risk, and that LxRoot is not liable for any data loss in connection with its Services. You are solely responsible for creating backups of Your Content. If, during Our own routine maintenance, we do create a backup of Your Content Which You later request Us to restore to Your account, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so, or that Your Content will be unharmed as a result of the initial data loss or the subsequent restore procedure. To that end, we highly recommend that You establish Your own routine backup procedure and that You periodically test restoring flees from Your backup media to ensure that You are making viable backups. Should you wish for LxRoot to provide you with routine backup services, in addition to the Services provided under these Terms, please Contact Us. We offer many different backup solutions as an add-on service to Our Regular Services, and all such services are provided through a separate, written agreement.

(b) Resource Usage. LxRoot reserves the right to suspend services or disable accounts if the account unduly stresses system resources. LxRoot will advise You of a temporary block placed on any account found to be consuming an inordinate amount of system resources, to the point of degrading overall system performance.

(c) Security. Any violation of the security to the Services is prohibited and may result in criminal and civil liability. Unauthorized Access of the servers used to provide the Site, Services, and/or Materials (the "Servers") is strictly prohibited and is a violation of these Terms and the AUP. You agree not to engage in such activity or to attempt to breach the Servers for the purpose of altering or manipulating the hardware or software, compromising the Servers, or for any other unauthorized use commonly known as "hacking." In the event You are involved in any violation of system security, we reserve the right to release information about You to system administrators at other sites in order to assist in resolving security incidents, and We shall also cooperate with any law enforcement agency investigating a criminal violation of system, cyber threats, or network security. Additionally, any violation of these security provisions may, at Our sole discretion, be grounds for Termination for Cause of Your Account as per these Terms.

(d) Bandwidth usage. Your monthly bandwidth allowance is determined by the specific package for which You sign up. If Your account exceeds Your monthly allowance, we reserve the right to charge you overage fees.

(e) Publicity. You grant us the non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide right and license to add your name, trademark and company logo (“Customer Marks”) to our customer lists, websites and marketing materials for the purpose of denoting your status as a customer and/or user. You can opt-out of this use by contacting us at info@lxroot.com

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein will limit our ability to use such Company Marks as otherwise permitted under relevant law.

You are fully responsible for the security of data on Your HIPAA Server or otherwise in Your possession.

Please read this carefully if you are a resident of the United States of America. It affects your rights.

(a) Applicable Law. These Terms and any dispute that may arise between you and LxRoot shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act, applicable federal law and the laws of the State of New Jersey, United States of America, excluding its rules regarding conflicts of law. You agree that any claim or dispute you may have against LxRoot must be resolved exclusively by a state or federal court located in Palm Beach County, Florida, except as otherwise agreed by the parties or as described in the Arbitration subsection below. You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located in Palm Beach County, Florida for the purpose of litigating all such claims or disputes.

(b) Dispute Resolution. Before either party may seek arbitration as provided below, the party must first send to the other party a written notice of dispute (“Notice") describing the nature and basis of the claim or dispute, and the requested relief. After the Notice is received, you and LxRoot may attempt to resolve the claim or dispute informally. If you and LxRoot do not resolve the claim or dispute within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, either party may begin an arbitration proceeding as provided below.

(c) Arbitration. You agree that LxRoot may elect to resolve the dispute in a cost-effective manner through binding arbitration (including non-appearance-based arbitration). In the event LxRoot elects arbitration, you hereby agree to move any claims to the exclusive jurisdiction of an arbitration procedure, which shall be initiated through the American Arbitration Association or another established alternative dispute resolution provider (collectively, “ADR”) chosen by LxRoot. The ADR provider and the parties must comply with the following rules: (i) at LxRoot’s option, the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online and/or be solely based on written submissions, the specific manner shall be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration; (ii) the arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties, in which case the location of the arbitration shall be Palm Beach County, Florida, and (iii) the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Arbitration expressly excludes claims for injunctive or other equitable relief. Arbitral Claims shall include, but are not limited to, contract and tort claims of all kinds, and all claims based on any federal, state or local law, statute, or regulation, excepting only claims under applicable worker's compensation law, unemployment insurance claims, intellectual property claims, actions for injunctions, attachment, garnishment, and other equitable relief. The arbitration shall be conducted in Palm Beach County, Florida and conducted by a single arbitrator, knowledgeable in the subject matter of the dispute. Except as provided below, the party bringing the action shall be responsible for paying all costs for arbitration, including the arbitrator's fees. Each party shall bear its own attorneys' fees (except if the matter is for the collection of a debt owed, the prevailing party shall be awarded its attorneys’ fees, all arbitration costs and arbitrator fees, in addition to all other applicable remedies). The arbitrator shall have no authority to award any punitive or exemplary damages; certify a class action; add any parties; vary or ignore the provisions of these Terms, and shall be bound by governing and applicable law. The arbitrator shall be willing to execute an oath of neutrality. The arbitrator shall render a written opinion setting forth all material facts and the basis of his or her decision within thirty (30) days of the conclusion of the arbitration proceeding.

(d) Waiver of Jury Trial. YOU HEREBY WAIVE YOUR CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. In the event any litigation should arise between you and LxRoot in any state or federal court in a suit to vacate or enforce an arbitration award or otherwise, YOU WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, instead electing that the dispute be resolved by a judge.

(e) Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THESE TERMS MUST BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER USER
