You are responsible for paying all charges necessary to use and access the Service. We will recognize only you as the person authorized to accept, utilize, manage, modify or terminate the Service.

Privacy

We collect and use personal information about you and your use of our Services ("Information"): (i) to consider initiating and to initiate, maintain and develop our relationship with you in connection with our offering and servicing of products and services; (ii) to administer billing and accounting services and security measures in relation to your business with us; (iii) to monitor your customer history, evaluate your credit standing and to share or exchange credit reports and information with credit reporting agencies and credit bureaus; (iv) to promote and to market additional products, goods and services offered by us, including by means of direct marketing; and (v) to comply with legal and regulatory requirements.

You consent to our collection from, verification with, communication to, any third party and our and their use of, Information for these purposes. You authorize these parties to give us the Information. You acknowledge that your name, address and telephone number are not considered confidential Information and may be disclosed by us. In addition, you agree that we may disclose Information to: (i) any person who, in our reasonable judgment, is seeking the Information as your agent; or (ii) a person involved directly or indirectly in supplying the Service to you, including, without limitation, our sales agents, to the extent the Information is required and used only for such purposes, including the efficient supply of Services to you, and provided that person is required to keep such Information confidential; or (iii) a person retained by us to collect amounts which you owe us or to enforce our rights under these Terms and Conditions, if the Information is required for, and is to be used only for that purpose and that person is required to keep such Information confidential.

Service Rates

The prices for the Service are made available on our web site and are subject to change without notice.

Invoices

We will invoice you monthly or annually depending on service subscription, in advance of the provision of Service, unless otherwise specified in these Terms and Conditions. The invoice will include, and you will be responsible for, any applicable provincial and federal taxes, as well as interest charges on overdue invoices.

You must bring invoice inquiries and disputes to our attention within 30 days of the invoice date and failure to do so will be deemed to be an admission that the entire contents of the invoice are accurate.

Payment Terms

Invoices are due on the date specified on the invoice. Interest will accrue on unpaid or overdue amounts as and from the invoice date at the rate of 2.24% per month (26.82% per annum), or such other rate as we may determine from time to time. Payment shall be made by cheque payable to ParaFX.com.  Alternatively you may make payments to your account using your Visa or Mastercard, PayPal or Email Money Transfer (Interac Online).   An admin fee of $25.00 will be applied if any cheque payment is rejected or returned by your financial institution. 

In the event that your account is allowed to become past due by 30 days or more, we may, at our discretion, suspend your hosting services until such time as the outstanding balance is paid in full.  We further reserve the right to charge an admin fee of $25.00 for suspension and re-activation.  Upon re-activation from a suspension of service, you are not reimbursed for lost service time due to the suspension of service.

Clients who have billing setup for pre-authorized payment processing will receive a copy of their invoice.  Payment for all invoice(s) will be processed using the pre-authorized method of clients choosing.  Should information change, such as credit card number or expiry info or should a client receive a re-issued card from their financial institution, it is the clients responsibility to inform us so that we can update the billing system accordingly.  If your pre-authorized payment processing decline, an admin or service charge of $25.00 may be applied.  ParaFX.com allows (1) one grace instance for payment declination with pre-authorized billing per year for pre-authorized billing clients. After that, the service charge may be applied and it is the responsibility of the client to resolve the balance as well as the reason for the pre-authorized payment declining. 

You may be subject to a credit check. We reserve the right to examine your credit record before we provide, continue or reinstate Services to you. You authorize us to investigate your creditworthiness and agree, from time to time, to provide appropriate authorizations and financial information as we may reasonably request for this purpose.

If an account or service is allowed to become past due by 60 days or more, we may at our sole discretion resort to use of your credit card on file to resolve the outstanding balance.  In addition, should a balance be allowed to become overdue by 90 days or more, we may, at our discretion,  turn over your account to a third party collections agency for further action.

Should you no longer require your service, you must follow our cancellation procedure outlined in these terms and conditions.  Unless a cancellation request is received by us in accordance with the cancellation procedure, your service will continue and renew on its current monthly or annual plan.  You will be liable for any amount owed for services provided (whether used or not) until a cancellation request has been received.
