Terms of Service

This Terms of Service (“TOS”) is an agreement made between AquaNetworks HK Limited (PrivateProxy.me), whose website is found at https://privateproxy.me (“Provider”) and Customer:

Customer: Customer is the person or legal business entity which has subscribed to the services of Provider (“Service” or “Services”). No other person is permitted to use the Service, whether by assignment, license, permission, or otherwise, on the part of Customer, or those who have gained unauthorized access via Customer to use Provider’s Services. Customer is a legal business entity, and only those who are authorized employees or agents of Customer may use the Services. Any attempt by the Customer to permit the use by third parties, who are not employees and/or agents, is a breach of this TOS. Terms governing the Provider’s rights upon the occurrence of a breach are described in the paragraph under the heading “Breach”.

Accurate Information Pertaining to Customer: Customer must provide complete, current, and accurate name of itself, billing address, billing telephone number, and credit card or debit card information. In the case of credit card and debit card information, the information to be provided must include, without limitation, the issuer of the card, card number, card security code/card verification value, and expiration date.

Privacy Policy: Please refer to our Privacy Policy for details of our Customer privacy policies. Access to our website also signifies agreement to this Privacy Policy.

Appropriate Use Policy: Please refer to our Acceptable Use Policy for details on the acceptable use of our services. Access to our website also signifies agreement to this Acceptable Use Policy.

Term: Customer agrees to a month-to-month term for Services unless otherwise agreed to in writing, by electronic mail, by instant messaging, or electronically via Provider’s website. If the term for Service is month-to-month, the term is automatically renewed each month, unless the Customer provides written notice of cancellation based on the terms provided below. If Customer has a term other than month-to-month, the term is automatically renewed for the same term, unless Customer provides written notice of cancellation based on the terms provided below.

Service Fees: Fees for Services ordered by Customer shall begin on the date of the order and Customer’s execution of electronic signature after having read and accepted this TOS, and the schedule of fees and other information found at Provider’s website, https://privateproxy.me (“Website Information”), all of which are posted at Provider’s website at https://privateproxy.me.

Cancellation: Provider requires, and Customer agrees, a written cancellation notice should be made for discontinuance or downgrades of Services. Failure to supply the requisite written notice of cancellation may result in continuous charges/billing. Charges incurred after the desired date of cancellation or downgrade are payable by the customer and the Provider is not responsible to refund any succeeding payments collected if the Customer failed to submit a cancellation notice to PrivateProxy.me. Notice of written cancellation by Customer is to be given via online customer portal located at https://app.privateproxy.me/users/sign_in.

Refunds: All Services rendered by Provider are refundable within 2 days only, except for other instances where the Provider stated a different refund condition on the website https://privateproxy.me or otherwise. This includes, but is not limited to: monthly or other periodic service fees. A written refund request should be made by the Customer through online live chat located on the website https://privateproxy.me. Our money-back guarantee is given to new Customers who used the Service but failed to make it work for its intended purpose within 7 days after payment and with no history of a full refund, related but is not limited to PayPal email and credit card information used or owned by the Customer. A customer who is proven to take advantage or abuse our money back guarantee loses its right to qualify for a refund within 7 days after payment of a new service rendered by the Provider.

Disputes: Customer seeking to resolve any billing error shall contact PrivateProxy.me within thirty (30) days of an alleged billing error via the live chat located at https://privateproxy.me. Failure to file an inquiry, report, or complaint related to such billing error within the said period is considered an acceptance to the accuracy of the invoice, bill, and charges. Without being limited by the initial sentence of Disputes, Customer agrees not to contest, seek reimbursement, chargeback or otherwise seek non-payment or reversal of any payment however made, without limitation, via credit card or otherwise for Services rendered. Any such action is a breach of this TOS. Terms governing Provider’s rights upon the occurrence of a breach is described in the paragraph under the heading “Breach”.

Non-Payment: All payments are due in full on the monthly or other periodic anniversary date, depending on the duration of Services agreed upon. Failure or Refusal to remit payment for Services under this TOS on the monthly or other periodic anniversary date is a breach of this TOS. The provider may provide the Customer with Services following a non-payment, but is not obligated to do that. The extension request should be made via the live chat on https://privateproxy.me before the renewal date. Proxy suspension happens immediately after non-payment if not agreed otherwise in writing in advance between the User and the Provider. Failure or Refusal to remit payment by the third calendar day, which includes the anniversary date, shall result in complete termination of Services, without notice, to Customer. In the event where the service gets suspended due to non-payment and the Customer wishes to have the suspension lifted, it must contact the Provider after settling the outstanding balance on the account to reactivate the Service and to properly adjust the next due date.

Medium of Payment: Payment shall be made on Provider’s website via PayPal or credit/debit card. PrivateProxy.me uses a secure and trusted 3-rd party payment processor, Stripe, for processing all card transactions.

Payment: Any and all payments set forth in this TOS are the sole responsibility of the Customer. No other person shall be responsible for payments or making payments to Provider.

Compliance with Laws: Customer agrees to abide by all laws, foreign and domestic, local, state, and federal.

Customer agrees not to hold Provider liable or responsible for such contents or such websites.

Security of Customer Information: Customer understands and agrees that Provider cannot guarantee, assure, or promise that information or data of Customer held by Provider, transmitted during use via Provider’s servers (including, without limitation, any and all transmissions to and from Customer via Provider’s servers) or via Customer’s use of Service, will not be compromised by unauthorized access. Without limiting any right of Provider as set forth under the heading “Indemnification”, Customer holds Provider harmless in the event of any breach of security to Customer’s data or information as described in this paragraph.

Security of Customer’s Internet Protocol (“IP”) Address: Provider cannot guarantee, assure or promise that Customer’s IP address may not be compromised by third parties. The Customer agrees to take full responsibility for all the risks involved using the Provider’s Service.

Indemnification: Customer agrees to indemnify, defend (attorney representing Provider shall be of Provider’s choosing and paid for by Customer), and hold harmless Provider, Provider’s affiliates, and each of Provider’s officers, directors, owners, attorneys, accountants, agents, and employees from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, fines, punitive damages, amounts in interest, expenses and disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever (including all attorneys’ fees) brought by a third party against Customer under any theory of legal liability arising out of or related to Customer’s conduct, in tort, contract, infringement of third party’s rights of whatever nature or otherwise. Without limiting what is set forth under the heading “Assignment”, this provision under the heading “Indemnification” applies to any person or entity, whether or not authorized by Customer, who uses Customer’s user name, Internet Protocol address, i.e. IP address, or other Customer identifying information, to use the Services of Provider, Customer agrees that Provider may, but is not obligated to, at its sole discretion, select its own legal counsel, advance attorneys’ fees, all subject to reimbursement in full by Customer.

Provider shall not be liable to Customer for harm caused by or related to Customer’s use of Services or inability to utilize the Services unless caused by gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part. Provider shall not be liable for temporary unavailability of Services arising from Provider making maintenance, upgrades, or unavailability for other reasons. Provider makes no warranties, expressed or implied, including implied warranties of title, merchantability, fitness for any particular purpose, or non-infringement. The provider cannot guarantee and does not promise any specific results from the use of the Provider’s Services. Provider shall not be liable to Customer for lost profits (even if informed by Customer), direct or indirect, special or incidental, consequential or punitive damages, or damages of any kind whether or not known, made known to, or should have been known by Provider. Notwithstanding anything else in this TOS, the maximum aggregate liability of Provider and any of its employees, agents or affiliates, under any theory of law, whether sounding in tort, contract, or otherwise, shall not exceed the amount already paid by Customer for Services for the six months immediately prior to the occurrence of the event giving rise to the claim, provided that Customer has made full payment for that six-month period. In the event Customer has not paid for six months of Service, whether Customer’s use has been of a lesser duration or due to a failure to pay, the maximum aggregate liability of Provider is reduced proportionately. This provision on limitation of liability shall survive the termination of this TOS with Customer.
