Description of Service Offered by Mychurchwebsite.net
Mychurchwebsite.net offers your Church, Ministry or Religious Organization the opportunity to create a world wide web or internet presence by subscribing to our service.
In order to use Mychurchwebsite.net's service you must obtain your own access to the internet. provide your own equipment such as computer and modem and any other equipment necessary to have an internet connection. Fees associated with internet access and the required equipment to access the internet are not provided as a part of mychurchwebsite.net services.
Our service consists of a restricted nonexclusive, non-transferable license for you to use mychurchwebsite.net's pre-set templates and web page development software and content management system to assist you in creating a web or internet presence for you or your organization to be hosted within the Mychurchwebsite.net content management system and on our server. Use of this service will be on a year to year basis, subject to the terms of this agreement.
We require that your webpage be hosted within Mychurchwebsite.net's content management system and by our company on our server so that we may protect our code and so that we can make sure the hosting platform supports our programming. You are not being granted any rights to copy or use the Software on computers other than a server controlled by Mychurchwebsite.net.
Mychurchwebsite.net owns the template you choose to use, content management system and the technology that runs our system. Mychurchwebsite.net also owns the graphics and site design. You own the content you place on your site.
When you apply for or subscribe to our service a web page template will be set up for you within Mychurchwebsite.net's content management system with a web address that will look something like this:
http://sites.mychurchwebsite.net/index.php?churchID=371.
You can use the website template with the web address as described above and our content management system as is, on a year to year basis, or, if you prefer, we will provide you with a free domain name of your choice (based upon availability). If you choose to use the free domain name, we will then purchase the domain name so that visitors to your site can access your site by using your own, unique domain name. This does not imply that we are hosting your domain name on our server and, more importantly, does not imply that mychurchwebsite.net is responsible for search engine recognition or placement of that domain name. The domain registration is provided as a convenience for you to be able to advertise your site under a domain name.
Use of the service on a year to year basis is subject to your prompt payment of fees in effect at the time.
Free domain names will be registered by us and renewed each year when you renew your service. Should the service be discontinued by you or us at any point in the future, you may initiate a transfer of the domain name, pay the transfer fee and we will assist in transferring the domain name to you. Transfers must occur prior to the renewal date. When service is terminated by you or us, WE DO NOT CONTINUE TO RENEW THE DOMAIN NAME. So, if it is your desire to keep the domain name your must initiate the transfer while the domain name is current and active. Mychurchwebsite.net is not responsible for any domain name renewal after termination of Service.
Upon termination of service by either party, mychurchwebsite.net will continue to own the technology that runs the content management system and the graphics and design that make up the look of the site. You would own the content you placed on the site and would be free to use your content on another site, but you could in no way use our system or graphics to create another site. In other words you can not take the template, graphics or content management system with you to be hosted by someone else, but you can move your content to another site or system.
Password
You will set and use a password to access and use the content management system. You agree that you and you alone are entirely responsible for any and all activities which occur as a result of any use of such password. You agree to notify Mychurchwebsite.net promptly if you have any reason to believe that the security of your account has been compromised. Protection of your password and the use of such is your responsibility.
You acknowledge and agree that Mychurchwebsite.net may access your site and its contents as necessary to identify or resolve technical problems or respond to complaints about the Service.
Payment
Payment for our services (fees in effect at the time) are payable once a year in advance. Beginning with the second and subsequent years your due date for renewal and your billing will be 60 days in advance of your original sign up anniversary. We must know that you want to renew your service well in advance so that we can renew your free domain name. We can not wait until the last minute to renew your domain name.
If you are 30 days past due from the renewal date as explained above you will be assessed a late fee
If you are 60 days past due your service will be suspended and your domain name will NOT be renewed.
If you go past 90 days late your service (site) will be deleted, which means that you would lose the content you placed on your site, unless you have a backup of your content. Backup responsibility is yours and is covered below.
