It is your responsibility to ensure Customer Equipment is maintained and in working order in accordance with the Minimum Specifications. We may from time to time alter the Minimum Specification required to access the Services. Any such alteration will be published on the Website. If the changes to the Minimum Specification require you to incur material expense in changing your Customer Equipment then you have right to cancel the Services within 30 days of receiving notice of these changes. 
   
   f. You will notify us if you move or change your address. If you change the address at which you require the Services, we will endeavour, but shall be under no obligation, to provide you with the Services at your new address.

Whilst we will endeavour to make you aware of this, it is your responsibility to check the suitability of the Services for your requirements. If you purchase the Services for use with any application or service that we have not recommended, the failure of the Services to support such an application will not permit you to terminate this Agreement and you will not be entitled to any refunds. We reserve the right to charge you for technical support if we reasonably consider that the Satellite Broadband Service is working normally, and faults or issues are related to Customer Equipment or Customer misuse. If a fault cannot be addressed through our level 1 support, we will charge you a service charge for an engineer to visit your premises. This charge will be confirmed and agreed with you prior to the engineers visit.  
   
   i. Unless you have selected a particular package or promotional offer which requires you to maintain the Services at a minimum level, you are entitled to upgrade or downgrade the level of Service assigned to your account by requesting such a change in writing subject to the following terms:

   3. If you downgrade from a higher to lower package there will be no amendment fee.

   g. Our Charges are based upon payment by credit card, debit card or direct debit. It is your responsibility to provide us with updated credit card, debit card and direct debit information in a timely manner to allow us to collect any and all on-going Charges. If we are unable to receive payment for the Charges via such means, you consent to us collecting payment by any other method, including the use of other direct payment methods or other information that you have already provided to us. 
   
   h. Save as expressly set out in this Agreement, you shall not be entitled to suspend any payments under this Agreement, as a result of faults and/or defects of the Service. 
   
   i. It is important that you make full and timely payment of any Charges. If you do not pay Charges as and when they fall due, you accept that you have breached the terms of this Agreement and we shall have the right to terminate this Agreement under clause 10(e) and recover all outstanding Charges due under this Agreement. This right is in addition to any other legal rights we may have against you.

8. NETWORK QUALITY AND AVAILABILITY
   a. You agree to abide by the terms of our Fair Use Policy as detailed on this website. 
   
   b. In supplying the Services we will use reasonable skill and care but we are unable to guarantee fault free performance. We do not warrant or guarantee that the operation of the Services will be uninterrupted, timely, error free or secure or that the Services will meet any of your specific requirements. You acknowledge that we will not be responsible for unforeseen interruptions or non-availability from outages or deterioration of the Services or Equipment that occur which are out of our control. 
   
   c. We will endeavour to correct reported faults as soon as reasonably possible. The Service is distributed on an “as is” and “as available” basis without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. 
   
   d. The service is a “high-latency” service because the satellites that deliver it are in geo-stationary orbit some 22,300 miles above the earth. Typical latency is of the order of 500 – 900ms although higher ping times are not uncommon. This high latency means a satellite service will be slower to respond than the equivalent terrestrial service – although when it does, the speed will be high. It is not suitable for applications such as gaming where low latency is required. 
   
   
9. SUSPENDING OR DISCONNECTING THE SERVICES
   a. We may at any time:
   1. Temporarily suspend the Services for repair, maintenance or improvement of any of our systems wherever located, or temporarily provide replacement Services or Equipment of a similar functionality to those previously supplied; or 
   2. Give you instructions on how to use or vary the Services (which you agree to comply with) where we reasonably consider such instructions are provided to you in the interests of safety, or the maintenance of service quality. 
   
   b. We will endeavour to give you as much notice as is reasonably practicable, and will give you at least a month’s notice, prior to such suspension and we will aim to restore the Services as soon as reasonably practicable after any temporary suspension. 
   
   c. We may suspend our Services without warning: 
   1. On the occurrence of an Excluded Risk; 
   2. In an emergency;

   4. When we are required to by the police or security services or other party who may have legal authority to make such a request; 
   5. If you, your employees/users/a third party given access to the Services by you, do not comply with the conditions of this Agreement, or any other agreement with us; 
   6. If you, your employees/users/a third party given access to the Services by you damages the Equipment; 
   7. If you physically or verbally threaten or abuse any of our staff;

   9. If you breach this Agreement. 
   
   d. We reserve the right to Charge you a re-connection fee where you or your employees/users either acting themselves or through a third party, have caused or contributed to the suspension of the Services.
   
   
10. ENDING THE AGREEMENT – TERMINATION
    a. Either we or you can terminate this Agreement immediately if any of the following happens:

    b. Either we or you can terminate this Agreement following the expiry of the Minimum Period, subject to the provision of 30 days’ written notice. That 30 day notice period can expire on or after the end of the Minimum Period. 
    
    c. Cease Charge: If you opted for a 12 month contract and terminate this Agreement during the Minimum Period (other than when you have a right to end the Services without incurring a penalty), you shall be required to pay a cease charge. The cease charge is the cost payable by us to the wholesale satellite provider when we cancel your subscription. The cease charge payable will be calculated by us when you confirm your wish to terminate the contract and will be based on the remaining term of the contract. 
    The cease charges will not be more than the charges you would have paid for your chosen Services for the remainder of the Minimum Term less any costs we save, including the cost of no longer providing you with Services, and less the benefit to us in receiving payment early. Unless you tell us otherwise, we may charge your cease charge directly to any of the credit or debit cards which you have provided us with details of (e.g. when you paid for the Services or Installation) or via your direct debit. We will give you reasonable notice before making any charge. 
    
    d. You may terminate this Agreement under clause 10a in writing to us at the address set out in clause 19a or by contacting us via email or phone.  
    
    e. We may also terminate this Agreement:

    1. must pay any valid Charges that are due to the end of the month following the month in which notice of termination is served;

    3. will be disconnected from the Services and will no longer be able to use the Services. 
    
    g. If, after your Services have been disconnected, you subsequently wish to reconnect to the Services, the standard connection fee for that tariff will apply.
    
    
11. FOR CONSUMERS ONLY – RIGHT TO CANCEL
    a. This clause 11 only applies if you are a consumer.
    
    b. You have the right to cancel this agreement during the period starting on the date that we accept your Order and ending 14 days after Installation of the Equipment (or, if you use Customer Equipment, the installation of the Customer Equipment and connection to the Service) (“Cooling Off Period”). This must be done in writing to the address set out in clause 19a or by informing us by telephone or email (the “Cancellation Notice”). On the expiry of the Cooling Off Period, no Cancellation Notice may be given and any such notice will be deemed to be a termination of this Agreement during the Minimum Period (see clause 10). 
    
    c. If you cancel your Order after any or all of the Equipment has been delivered to you, you will be responsible for the cost of returning the Equipment to us and, if necessary, the de-installation of any installed Equipment in accordance with our Published Prices.

    f. We will provide you with a final invoice detailing any Charges, including any applicable Equipment Charges under clause 5(e) (1), arising and any net balance due to us or payable to you.

    b. You must inform us immediately if you suspect that any password has been compromised or if you forget a password so that we can issue you with a new password. 
    
    c. If we reasonably suspect that there has been or is likely to be a breach of security or a misuse of the Services, we may change your password and we will notify you accordingly. 
    
    d. You are required to promptly and accurately give us all the information that we reasonably request so that we can perform our obligations under this Agreement. 
    
    e. You must inform us immediately of any change to any information you have provided to us, including changes to the Equipment. We shall not be liable for any expenses you incur or savings you fail to make arising from your failure to notify us in a timely manner of such changes.
