  4. Access.  After You have completed an Order, Exchange Mail may grant you a unique account (an “Account”).  In connection with the Account, You may be provided with one or more unique user identifiers and passwords (each, an “Account ID”).  Each Account ID is personal in nature and may only be used by You, or if You are an organization only by Your designated employees or contractors or clients who are contractually required to comply with the terms of this Agreement (such individual, as applicable, the “User” of the Account).  You are solely responsible for all use of the Services by each User (and anyone who accesses the Services through Your Account, other than Exchange Mail employees and contractors) and for compliance by each such User or other person with the terms of this Agreement.  You will ensure the security and confidentiality of each Account ID and will notify Exchange Mail immediately if any Account ID is lost, stolen or otherwise compromised.  You acknowledge that You are fully responsible for all costs, fees (including, without limitation, attorneys and professional fees), liabilities and damages incurred through use of each Account ID.  You also acknowledge that any Services ordered or transactions completed through any Account or under any Account ID will be deemed to have been authorized and lawfully completed by You.  In no event will Exchange Mail be liable for the foregoing obligations or the failure by You to fulfill such obligations.  You, at Your own expense, will be solely responsible for procuring, installing and maintaining any hardware, software, or other equipment as may be necessary for You and each User to connect to, access, and use the Services or the Site.
  5. Term.  This Agreement is effective beginning on the Effective Date and will continue for the period specified in the Order (the “Initial Term”).  In the case of a Free Subscription, this Agreement and all of Your rights to use the Services will expire at the end of the Term unless: (i) You complete another Order; or (ii) Exchange Mail previously terminated Your Account, which it may do at any time.  In the case of a Paid Subscription, the Term, including all associated payment obligations, will automatically renew for successive periods equal in length to the Initial Term (each, a “Renewal Term”, and together with the Initial Term, the “Term”), unless either party sends the other written notice of its intent not to renew the Term not later than thirty (30) days prior to the end of the current Term.  In the case of a Paid Subscription with an Initial Term of more than one (1) year, each Renewal Term length will be one (1) year.

  7. Downtime and Maintenance.  You acknowledge that Exchange Mail is entitled, without any liability, to suspend access to any or all of the Services at any time: (i) to perform scheduled or unscheduled maintenance, modifications or upgrades; (ii) due to hardware failures, power outages, failures of third-party providers, or because of interruptions of any other kind; (iii) to mitigate the effects of or prevent any attack or threat to the Site, Services, or any other network or systems on which the Services rely; or (iv) as necessary in Exchange Mail’s sole discretion because the Services or Your Use thereof are or may violate a law or regulation, or as might be required for other legal or regulatory reasons (collectively, “Approved Service Suspensions”).  Exchange Mail has no obligation to provide You notice of the cause of any particular Approved Service Suspension. However Exchange Mail will attempt to notify You in advance of any scheduled Approved Service Suspension, but other than as may be expressly stated in the applicable Order, Exchange Mail will have no liability for any damages, losses (including loss of data or profits), or any other consequences incurred as a result of an Approved Service Suspension or the failure to provide notice thereof.
