By posting updated versions of the Agreement at the Peak to Peak Web Design web site, or otherwise providing notice to you, Peak to Peak Web Design may modify the terms of the Agreement and may discontinue or revise any or all other aspects of the Services at its sole discretion. All such changes shall become effective upon posting of the revised Agreement on the Service.

All fees paid to Peak to Peak Web Design for Peak to Peak Web Design are non-refundable, unless an account is terminated by Peak to Peak Web Design for a reason other than violation of the Anti-Spam Policy. Payment for Services will be made by a valid credit card accepted by Peak to Peak Web Design, unless other payment arrangements have been made between you and an authorized Peak to Peak Web Design representative. You hereby authorize Peak to Peak Web Design to charge your credit card for such amounts whenever you send a campaign to more than 5 recipients. Fees are payable in US dollars or Australian dollars. If Peak to Peak Web Design is for any reason unable to effect automatic payment via your credit card, you will be notified via e-mail. All prices are subject to change and you are responsible for reviewing the Pricing Schedule from time to time and remaining aware of the Fees charged by Peak to Peak Web Design.

As part of the registration process, you will be given an e-mail address and password for your Peak to Peak Web Design account.

Peak to Peak Web Design reserves the right to refuse registration of, or cancel, accounts it deems inappropriate.

1.8 It is understood that Peak to Peak Web Design makes no guarantee that HTML messages will be rendered properly on all recipients’ e-mail programs, due to the wide variety of HTML generation tools available. Peak to Peak Web Design makes every attempt to make sure that all e-mail messages sent through our servers follow e-mail standards, but we cannot guarantee that messages will look consistent across all e-mail platforms due to the number of different HTML composition tools available. For example, if you use Microsoft Word to generate HTML e-mail messages, it is expected that recipients of your message using a non-Microsoft e-mail application may have difficulty reading your message. For best results Peak to Peak Web Design recommends, but does not guarantee, the use of HTML editors that generate HTML that adheres to W3C standards.

All Peak to Peak Web Design customers must follow the rules of the federal CAN-SPAM act and Peak to Peak Web Design’s Anti-Spam policy when sending e-mail through the service. Accordingly, we require the following of e-mail messages sent through the Peak to Peak Web Design system:

1. All e-mails must contain a one-click unsubscribe link as provided by the Peak to Peak Web Design service. Peak to Peak Web Design scans every campaign for the existance of an unsubscribe link. If an unsubscribe link is not detected, the user is informed and is required to include an unsubscribe link before continuing.
2. All e-mails must contain non-Internet contact information of the sender, such as your company’s address, or your company’s phone number.
3. All e-mails must state the reason the recipient is receiving the message. For example, "You are receiving this message from ABC Company because you signed up for our e-mail list at www.abc.com."

These 3 guidelines will help ensure that Peak to Peak Web Design maintains its reputation and white-listing status with a number of major ISPs and whitelisting programs. If at any time your campaign is flagged as SPAM by an AOL recipient, Peak to Peak Web Design reserves the right to cancel your account without notice.
