WHEREAS the Client desires Secure Independence (known as SI) to provide, and SI agrees to provide, certain commercial Internet services for Client in accordance with the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth; NOW THEREOF SI and the Client agree as follows:

1. Services: SI shall provide the Services as further described in these rules, regulations, policies, procedures and agreements for the Client. This Agreement shall act as the master agreement and cover all future Services contracted for by the Client from SI. Schedules may be added to this Agreement and modified from time to time upon the agreement of the parties hereto, and each Schedule, as added or so modified, and mutually agreed upon, shall become incorporated into and form part of the terms of this Agreement.
2. Terms and Conditions: The Terms and Conditions attached to this agreement form an integral part of this agreement, are enforceable and binding as between the parties hereto and should be read by the Client before execution.
3. Termination of Service: SI may terminate any or all Services in this Agreement immediately, without further obligation to the Client in the event of any violation of SI's Terms and Conditions or on site policy as posted on the SI's Corporate Website or at the location defined in each of the Schedules of Services. SI reserves the right to monitor access to this service and to remove, at its sole discretion and without prior notice any informational material or software which it believes to be unlawful or objectionable. Violations of the Client Terms and Conditions are unethical and may be criminal offenses.
4. Compliance: SI will not be in compliance with the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (E.C.P.A.). SI reserves the right to refuse service to anyone.
5. Confidentiality: Each party shall maintain the confidentiality of all confidential information disclosed by the other party, including the existence and terms of this Agreement, and shall not copy or use any such confidential information except as allowed by this Agreement. The foregoing shall not apply to information which is or becomes publicly known otherwise than by reason of a breach of this Agreement or has been independently developed outside this scope of this Agreement.

   Force Majeure: If at any time during the Term of this Agreement SI is unable to provide the Services by reason of the occurrence of an event of Force Majeure, SI will be excused from the performance of its obligations hereunder, during the continuance of such liability, provided that SI provides notice of the occurrence of an event of Force Majeure within 75 hours of its occurrence and takes reasonable measures to prevent or remove the Force Majeure. Force Majeure means a fire, wind, flood, epidemic, earthquake, snowstorm, ice buildup, or any other act of Nature, explosion, equipment malfunction, damage to equipment or facilities, strike, riots, any government ordinance or any governmental regulation or order of any court, fraud, breaches of system security or any other event not within reasonable control of SI, which renders continued provision of the Services under this Agreement illegal, unsafe or impracticable.

6. Copyrights: Without prior written approval by SI, Client will not use the SI forms, trade name and/or trademark in any advertising other than that provided by SI.
7. Payments:
   1. If Client mails, faxes, emails, or uses any other form of electronic transmission to send a check to SI, Client agrees to give SI permission to debit Client's account electronically;
   2. If Client decides to use a credit card and for any reason there is a discrepancy, Client agrees to resolve the charge directly with SI.;
   3. If Client attempts to put a stop payment on a check, or issue a charge back on a credit card, Client's actions would be construed as fraud. If Client is under a contract, said Client would then be responsible for the full payment due while SI would reserve the right to terminate Client's services. In addition, Client may face legal action.
8. Client fully understands that any attempt to not live up to the financial obligation of their agreement may result in the loss of their domain name and web pages which would then become the property of SI until Client would make good on full payment of financial obligation. Additionally, in some instances once a URL (domain name) is relinquished, that domain name may not ever be available to the Client again.
9. Agreement:
   1. Client has read and understands the company policies and procedures and the refund policy;
   2. Any provisions in part or in whole in this document found invalid will not invalidate any other provision;
10. Jurisdiction: This Agreement shall be governed by the construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada and to the extent allowable, the substantive laws of the State of Nevada shall apply to the agreement (including the Nevada Revised Statutes). Any legal action or other proceeding brought by either the Purchaser or Seller to enforce or interpret this Agreement shall be filed in Nevada.
11. Arbitration: Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this agreement, or the breach thereof, shall be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Commercial [or other] Arbitration Rules [including the Optional Rules for Emergency Measures of Protection], and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

    Mediation Preceding Arbitration: If a dispute arises out of or relates to this agreement, or the breach thereof, and if the dispute cannot be settled through negotiation, the parties agree first to try in good faith to settle the dispute by mediation administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Mediation Procedures before resorting to arbitration, litigation, or some other dispute resolution procedure. If they do not reach such solution within a period of 60 days, then, upon notice by either party to the other, all disputes, claims, questions, or differences shall be finally settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with the provisions of its Commercial Arbitration Rules.

    Allocation of Fees and Costs: The arbitrator may, in the Award, allocate all or part of the costs of the arbitration, including the fees of the arbitrator and the reasonable attorneys' fees of the prevailing party.

12. Client agrees to use the services provided by SI as permitted by applicable local, state, and federal laws. The Client agrees, therefore, not to use these services to conduct any business or activity or solicit the performance of any activity that is prohibited by law.
13. The account holder acknowledges that SI is a commercial entity. SI networks may be used by Clients to conduct legal businesses. The Client should not impinge upon the use of SI services by other account holders. SI services are not to be used to send unsolicited advertising or promotional material to other network users. Electronic mail and appropriate USENET news groups may be used in the conduct of legitimate business.
