Terms

The initial service term of the agreement shall begin on the date that HostSailor activates the User’s account. The User will be charged on a monthly basis, where the User’s can opt to renew automatically or manually. HostSailor agrees to allow the User to cancel and terminate their services at any time, as long as it’s before the due date.

Payments

Fees: Fees are paid on the first date of the new billing cycle. Invoices will be generated five (5) days before the due date, with a reminder being sent three (3) days before the due date. HostSailor will send the User an overdue reminder one (1) day after the due date, with a second overdue reminder being sent two (2) days after the due date. HostSailor will send a final and third overdue reminder three (3) days after the due date.

Users can choose to renew their account automatically by selecting the option when placing their first order. Users can also opt to manually pay their fees. If a User has a credit balance on their account, HostSailor will automatically apply the credit toward the newest dues. If a User does not pay their fees within three (3) days of the billing date, HostSailor will automatically suspend the account. HostSailor reserves the right to terminate a User’s account at anytime if the balance is left unpaid.

Without limiting anything stated foregoing, HostSailor is entitled to charge a certain late fee if the User fails to pay their fees or renew their account in the timely fashion.

Please note that payment with credit card may introduce additional charge(s) by the issuer of the credit card, and HostSailor has nothing to do with that extra charge and will only receive the amount corresponding to the product(s). The credit card payments will involve a detailed verification of the information relating to user such as user ID to prevent any potential fraud. However, no such verification is required if you use any other payment method.

Fee Increases: HostSailor reserves all rights to increase service fees. User can accept the fee increase by renewing their account. If the User does not accept the fee increase, they can cancel/terminate their account with HostSailor.

Taxes: HostSailor does not charge Users taxes of any kind.

Early Termination: User acknowledges that the amount of the fee for the service is based on the User’s agreement to pay the fee for the entire Initial Term, or Renewal Term, as applicable. In the event HostSailor terminates the Agreement for User’s breach of the Agreement, or Customer terminates the service other than in accordance with Termination requirements for HostSailor’s breach, the unpaid fees for each billing cycle remaining in the Initial Term or then-current Renewal Term, as applicable, are due on the business day following termination of the Agreement.

Refunds: HostSailor offers a 14-day money-back guarantee. A refund claim must be made within the first 14 days starting from the Service Commencement Date.
