Terms of Use
Introduction
We are happy to reconfirm *Free Installation of our software. Installation can vary dramatically owing to the many different ways hosts configure servers. It may be necessary for your particular host to make further reconfigurations before OSS can be accommodated.
We know you are anxious to see Omni Site Security (OSS) up and running and we appreciate your indulgence during the installation phase.
Please also be advised of the following
*Free Installation means that your domain host is currently able to accommodate our software without special effort. A majority of installations are trouble-free. In some instances we may need to write a special script to accommodate your host’s configurations, and/or, special consultation may be required between and/or among you, your domain host and our programmer.
A fee of $120.00 U.S. per hour may apply in the instances but can be waived at our discretion, depending on the complexity of the problem.
Item 7, “Money Back Guarantee,” defines our Refund policy.

A final email communication is composed which defines the specific emails and live chats — by time and date stamp — whose content and no other will constitute the full “Description” of the work to be completed, together with the delivery date the customization is due. Do not render a payment until you have received this “contract” as it clearly and fully describes the work you are to receive.

Such modification must be agreed-to in an email from us, to you, and must bear a heading within the body of the email, at the top, which clearly states: “NOTICE OF ACCEPTED MODIFICATION TO CUSTOMIZATION”.

The Holder of this type of license (MDR, or Multiple Domain Rights) is allowed limited extended use of the software (up to 3 domains with Deluxe and 10 domains with Deluxe Plus); however, the individual in whose name the license is registered represents himself or herself to be the sole and duly registered owner of the domains on which MDR is claimed.Please contact us for further clarification as may be required and/or for still further clarification of Multiple Domain Rights.
Under no circumstances may owners, operators, clients, webmasters, customers or any others with access to your license allow the software to be duplicated or used or shared by other than the individual for whom the software was purchased.
Please note that MDR does not equate to multiple domain support. Issues arising from domains on a license is being used under MDR do not qualify for support; that is, only the principle domain on which the license has been literally installed qualifies for support. However, we are happy to render a free estimate on supporting your MDR domains.
6. Recurring Billing

The warranty stated above is the only warranty given and supercedes all other warranties, regardless of whether expressed or implied, including implied warranties of commercial aptitude and fitness for a specific purpose. In case you make a warranty claim within the 30-day warranty period, the liability of OSS is limited to replacing the product or refunding you in full the amount you paid for licensing.
