Scope of this Agreement

Your Responsibilities

You agree to purchase Internet Services from Speedwavz LLC, in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Customer Responsibility

You have certain responsibilities as a party to this agreement.  Another section describes Speedwavz LLC’s responsibilities.  You acknowledge that you accept this Agreement on behalf of yourself, your users and all persons who use the equipment and/or service through this equipment.  You have the sole responsibility for ensuring that all other users understand and comply with the terms and conditions of this agreement, whether such breach is the result of the use of the Service and/or Equipment by you or another user.  You agree to use your Speedwavz LLC supplied service from your own premises.  You agree to provide Speedwavz LLC with accurate and complete billing information, including your legal name, address, and telephone number.  If your address, phone number, name or other billing information changes, you will notify us within 30 days or your service may be suspended.  By ordering and paying for an Speedwavz LLC service, you affirm that you are 18 years of age or older.

What happens if I break this agreement

If you default or break this agreement, Speedwavz LLC may temporarily suspend or permanently close some or all of your service.  Speedwavz LLC alone makes this decision.  Suspending or closing your service does not limit Speedwavz LLC’s remedies or incur any liability to you (that is you don’t have to be credited down time as a result of you defaulting).  “Default” means failure on your part to comply with this agreement.  This includes getting behind on your payments and breaking the provisions of this agreement or associated policies, but is not limited to these situations.  If you use your own equipment with service provided by Speedwavz LLC in violation of any of the provisions of this agreement, Speedwavz LLC will notify you and take such action as is necessary for the protection of the service for users by its other customers.  This may include disconnecting your service.  Speedwavz LLC reserves the right to charge a disconnect and/or reconnect fee for any discontinued service.

Speedwavz LLC’s Responsibilities

Speedwavz LLC has certain responsibilities as a party to this agreement.  Another section describes your responsibilities.  Speedwavz LLC agrees to provide you with the service and required special equipment, provided that you comply with all the terms and conditions of this agreement.  Speedwavz LLC also agrees to maintain the equipment provided by us.  Another section details the terms over equipment.  We will do our best to provide uninterrupted service.  However, like any other telecommunications service provided, the service may experience temporary slowdowns or interruptions caused by: overload, abuse, equipment modifications, upgrades, relocations, or repairs, and similar activities necessary for the proper operation and supply of the service, or disasters (see “force majeure” in another section).  Speedwavz LLC will provide basic instructions on how to use the service.  These instructions will be provided during the time of your installation by our installer.  You are also entitled to technical support for the Speedwavz LLC provided equipment or service via phone or email.  We cannot provide technical support for any hardware, software or operating systems not provided by Speedwavz LLC.  If a Speedwavz LLC technician or representative is asked to provide support or repair for software or hardware that is not supplied by Speedwavz LLC, a $50.00 labor charge will be applied to your next bill.

Force Majeure (Disasters, Etc)

Neither you or Speedwavz LLC is liable for any delay or failure in performance of any part of this agreement caused by any force majeure event even beyond your, or our, control and without your, or our, fault or negligence.  These events include, but are not limited to, the events known legally as “Force Majeure”.  Force Majeure refers to a number of situations that could affect you and Speedwavz LLC in performing your, or our, obligations: acts of civil or military authority, terrorist acts, nuclear accidents, government regulations, riots, strikes, embargoes, insurrections, extended power blackouts, natural disasters, epidemics, fires, severe weather conditions, environmental disturbances, war, explosions, legal and/or regulatory constraints.  

If a Force Majeure condition occurs, the party injured by the other party’s inability to perform has two options (detailed below).  The injured party has 30 days to choose which one.  If the injured party does not inform the other within 30 days of being notified of a Force Majeure situation, the second option goes into effect.  

Option One:  The injured party may terminate the agreement if such Force Majeure condition results in a delay or failure to perform which continues for more than 30 calendar days.

Option Two: The injured party may suspend the service for a duration of the delaying cause and buy a similar service.  After the emergency is over, this agreement and the service will continue.

Paying for your Speedwavz LLC service

The price you will pay Speedwavz LLC is the monthly rate and other fees and charges such as equipment leases and applicable taxes as established from time to time by Speedwavz LLC.  Speedwavz LLC reserves the right to modify the rates, fees and charges at any time.  You have the right to be notified of price changes at least 30 days before the new rate takes effect.  You acknowledge that you may incur additional charges while using the service.  If you make purchases over the Internet, those transactions are between you and the seller, and have nothing to do with your relationship with Speedwavz LLC.

Payment

You will be sent a statement to the email address provided when you signed up for service before payment is due.  Payment will be deemed made when received by Speedwavz LLC.  If a credit card payment is declined by the payment service, it will be retried the following business day.

Payment may also be made by check.   Checks may be made out to:  Speedwavz LLC and sent to: 32662 Ohio 31, West Mansfield, OH 43358.

If your account becomes overdue, you will receive a notice by email.  At this time, Speedwavz LLC may take steps to reduce the service supplied or temporarily suspend the service and apply any applicable disconnection and /or reconnection fee.  If your account becomes overdue, Speedwavz LLC may apply a late fee per month to the account.  A service charge of up to $35 will be assessed for each check that is returned to Speedwavz LLC for insufficient funds.  You will get your invoice by email supplied when you began service.

Term

This agreement becomes effective on the date on which you order your Speedwavz LLC service.  Your first payment is due at the time your service is connected.  This is also your start-of-service date.  Your payments are due on the anniversary date of install of every month.  This agreement remains in effect for the duration of your service.

Credit for Down Time

Although we intend to maintain your service at all times, you have the right to be credited if through our negligence you lose service via Speedwavz LLC for more than 24 hours.  In such a case, we will credit you 1/30 of the monthly base charge for each 24 hour period from the time of notice of interruption until the service restoration.  The 24 hours must be continuous.  You cannot add up shorter periods.  To receive credit, you must notify the Speedwavz LLC office that your service is not working.  Most types of outages do not qualify for credit.  Please read the next section for your information.

Events that don’t qualify for credit

Most temporary service outages do not qualify for credit.  You will not get credit for problems in the Service caused by your own or other’s negligence or willful act (except as provided above) or for problems caused by weather or disaster-like situations.  Please see Force Majeure.  “Willful acts” include system failures caused by viruses, “hacking”, “cracking”, and other forms of remote malice.  You will not get credit for loss of connectivity caused by technicians working to modify or repair Speedwavz LLC’ equipment.  You will not get credit for loss of connectivity less than 24 hours long.  Speedwavz LLC may, however, issue credit on a case-by-cause basis at Speedwavz LLC’s discretion.  If you believe that Speedwavz LLC has billed you in error, you must contact us or call within 30 days of the invoice or statement date.  Refunds or adjustments will not be given for any charges more than 60 days old.

Deposit

Speedwavz LLC may require a deposit to commence the supply of service.

Closing your Account

To close your account, you must notify Speedwavz LLC.  To add or remove services, or close an account, you must identify yourself to Speedwavz LLC’s satisfaction.  This is to protect unauthorized changes by other persons to your account.

Upon Termination of this Agreement or your account

You agree that upon termination of this Agreement:  

You will pay Speedwavz LLC in full for your use of the Equipment and the Service up to the effective date of termination of this Agreement or the date on which the Service and Equipment have been disconnected and returned to Speedwavz LLC, whichever is later.  You will not receive a refund if you terminate service part-way through a month.  You will allow Speedwavz LLC employees or contractors to access your premises to remove the Equipment.  This may mean coming in your house and climbing on your roof.  We agree to arrange a time that is convenient for you and an Speedwavz LLC technician.

Credit for closed accounts

If you cancel your Speedwavz LLC service, we will refund that part of your latest payment which covers service up until your next invoice date excluding the 30 day notice period.  Your setup and installation fees are non-refundable.  You will always be refunded at the rate you paid.  That is, if you got a discount, you will be refunded at the discount level, not at the standard level.

Computer Equipment

You are responsible for your own equipment that you use with the Speedwavz LLC service.  For this agreement to be valid, your computer must meet minimum requirements (as determined solely by Speedwavz LLC).  It must be technically and operationally compatible with the Service.  Speedwavz LLC’s responsibility for your Internet connectivity stops at the downstream end of the Equipment.  You are responsible for providing equipment capable of receiving and transmitting electronic data through a standard port.

Home networks

You may access the Internet via Speedwavz LLC from secondary computers on a home network within the limits of the Acceptable Use Policy.  Your home network is not part of your Internet Wireless service or Equipment.  By accepting this agreement, you explicitly acknowledge that Speedwavz LLC will not provide technical support for equipment or software that is not part of the Speedwavz LLC Service or Equipment.  Allowing someone to connect to your home network from outside your premises and use your Speedwavz LLC service is strictly prohibited.  If you do this, we may close your account.  Giving someone outside your household or business your Speedwavz LLC login name and password is strictly prohibited.

Equipment supplied by Speedwavz LLC

Speedwavz LLC agrees to maintain the Equipment in working condition for the lifetime of this agreement.  In case of Equipment failure, Speedwavz LLC will troubleshoot, diagnose, repair, or replace the Equipment within 72 hours.  All Equipment supplied by Speedwavz LLC, except for any item that you buy and pay for in full, remains the property of Speedwavz LLC.  You may not mortgage, sell, transfer, lease, encumber, or assign all or part of the Equipment.  If you lose or break the Equipment, or turn it over to someone else as described in the previous paragraph, you must pay Speedwavz LLC the full cost of the repair or replacement in the amount of $500.  If Speedwavz LLC spends money in the effort to get the equipment back, you must also pay those costs.  You will not modify, tamper with, or move the Equipment.  If you need the Equipment moved, you must contact Speedwavz LLC and ask to have an Speedwavz LLC technician or contractor move the Equipment for you.  You may be charged for the callout, labor and materials required to move the Equipment.  If Equipment, including network components, is moved or modified by anyone other than Speedwavz LLC personnel (employed or contracted), and damage to the equipment results so that Speedwavz LLC personnel or contractors are called out to your location to repair or replace it, you will be charged $150.00 for the visit in addition to any other charges specified in the Terms of Service.  You authorized Speedwavz LLC and its employees, agents, contractors and representatives to enter your premises in order to install, maintain, inspect, repair, and remove the Equipment.  Speedwavz LLC agrees to arrange a mutually convenient time with you for these activities.
