Service for which Factel Studio does not currently charge a fee) at any time,
provided, however, that Factel Studio will provide Member with reasonable notice
prior to making any fee changes. In addition, Factel Studio will also give
Member reasonable notice before any modification to the Service that could
adversely impact Member's Site(s). If a Member finds any change to the Service

MEMBER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT MEMBER HAS READ THIS AGREEMENT AND ALL RELATED SITE
SCREENS REFERENCED AND INCORPORATED IN THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT MEMBER AGREES
TO ALL ITS TERMS AND CONDITIONS. MEMBER HAS INDEPENDENTLY EVALUATED ALL
ASPECTS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE DESIRABILITY OF ENTERING INTO THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED IN THIS AGREEMENT AND IS NOT RELYING ON ANY
REPRESENTATION, GUARANTEE OR STATEMENT OTHER THAN THOSE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH
IN THIS AGREEMENT.
Service-Specific Terms: The following terms apply in addition to
paragraphs 1-24 if Member has purchased a Service package which includes the
particular service described. Factel Studio may change service providers or stop
providing the following services at any time without notice to Member; and
Member shall permit Factel Studio to act as its agent with respect to the
following services:
- Internet Domain Names
Factel Studio has chosen independent Third Party Domain Name Vendors ("TPDNVs")
who are ICANN accredited registrars, to provide domain name registration
services. Member hereby authorizes Factel Studio if requested, to transfer in or
acquire Member's selected domain name from TPDNVs. In order to receive a
domain name, Member must agree and remain agreeable through the use of the
Domain Name, to the TPDNVs' terms of service which the TPDNVs may change at
any time in their sole discretion to the TPDNVs' terms of service. Member
understands that Member is creating a separate contractual relationship
between Member and the TPDNVs, and that Member, and not Factel Studio, is
responsible for all liability, and obligations in connection with that
relationship. For more information, please see the
Domain Name Services Agreement (a
service offered in partnership with Tucows, Inc.)
If, after registering one or more domain names that are included with any
Factel Studio Service package, because of a customer's incorrect registration of
a domain name or otherwise, member chooses to delete a previously registered
domain name and subsequently register one or more additional different
Domain Names, Customer will be charged the resulting Domain Name
registration fees.
Member will be listed as the registrant and administrative contact in
connection with Member's domain name; however, Factel Studio may temporarily
list itself as the registrant and administrative contact in the event that
it changes to a different TPDNVs until the TPDNVs change is completed.
Member hereby authorises Factel Studio to list itself as the billing contact,
technical contact and name servers in connection with Member's domain name
and to take any actions Factel Studio deems appropriate in those capacities.
However, upon termination of the Service, Factel Studio will immediately cease
acting in those capacities including switching registrars. After such time,
Factel Studio will not be responsible to forward any notices, emails or other
correspondence to Member or to take any other actions in connection with
Member's domain name. Additionally, in the event that a Member account is
suspended by Factel Studio for lack of payment or any other reason, Factel
Studio
shall not renew any domain names that may become due for renewal during the
suspension of the account. Member will be solely responsible for all ongoing
fees, as well as removing Factel Studio as the billing, technical contact and
name servers in connection with Member's domain name.
- Email.
Some Factel Studio accounts may have Email services provided by an independent
Third Party Email Services Vendor ("TPESV"). Factel Studio is not responsible
for the actions or inaction of the then current TPESV or the unavailability
or malfunction of their network or services. Factel Studio is not a party to,
and shall not be involved in or responsible for, transactions, agreements,
and/or disputes between Member and the TPESV ("TPESV Dispute"). In the event
of a the TPESV Dispute, Member hereby releases Factel Studio (and its officers,
directors, agents, and employees) from claims, demands, and damages (actual
