Terms and Conditions

Our services are offered according to the terms and conditions that are described in the attached link: Terms and Conditions. This pricing update: September 1, 2007. Please read this document, as it defines our policies and procedures, especially with respect to payment conditions and use (abuse) of services.

NOTE: We are not a "Throttling Server", which limits the responsiveness for high-traffic sites. Our high-traffic sites receive full capacity to the Internet without throttling. (See: Wikipedia definition of throttling. Many low-cost Web Hosting services perform throttling to prevent any site from usurping all the bandwith, and thereby offer a degraded service at a lower cost.)

Comware International, Inc., offers Web Hosting and E-mail services under the operating unit of SYV-Online. These services are provided in the following four Service Levels, or "Tiers", which vary in price depending on Base Traffic, Base Storage, Number of Mailboxes, and number of alias Domain Names.

In the following table, the following billing terms are defined:

"Base Traffic" refers to the total number of Gigabytes transmitted per month, consisting of web pages, images, mp3 files, or downloaded data. (No assessment is made of the number of bytes loaded per month.) In cases where the transmitted data exceeds the amount quoted for the Service Level, a monthly fee is assessed for data transmitted at a rate listed in the table.
"Base Storage" refers to the number of Megabytes allowed under the given Service Level. This storage is automatically backed up on a daily basis. In cases where the amount of storage exceeds the amount quoted for the Service Level, a monthly fee is assessed for over-storage based on the number of Megabytes exceeding the base level at a rate listed in the table. (In special cases exceptions can be made to allow storage of data at no charge within specified folders of agreed maximum size with the understanding that the customer is responsible for backup of the data.)
"Mailboxes" refers to the number of mailboxes available with a website at the base Service Level. Additional mailboxes are available at a rate of $5/month. All mailboxes are provided with names relative to a domain associated with the website, e.g., somename@yourdomain.com.
"Aliases" refer to additional domain names that are identical and refer to the same website as the primary website. For example, a website such as matchmaker.com can have an alias of matchmaker.net. The table below specifies the number of aliases allowed at no extra charge for a base website. Additional aliases can be added in groups of 10 for $5/month.

Tier	Price/Mo.	Base Traffic, Gb./Mo.	+$/Mb./Mo. over Base Traffic	Base Storage, Megabytes	+$/Mb/Mo. over Base Storage	Mail- boxes	Aliases
.5	$10/Mo.	0.35	$.025/Mb.	20	$.30/Mb.	1	0
1	$25/Mo.	1.0	$.020/Mb.	50	$.20/Mb.	2	1
2	$40/Mo.	2.5	$.015/Mb.	100	$.15/Mb.	4	3
3	$80/Mo.	6.0	$.012/Mb.	200	$.10/Mb.	6	7

You can upgrade/downgrade between Tier levels by notifying us in writing within 5 calendar days of the end of any billing cycle (which always ends monthly). Please contact us if you have a question about your domain hosting level or options.

Initial setup of a website domain and associated email incurs an initial setup fee of $25.00 (unless waived by longer-term plans such as annual billing commitment).)
