TRIAL PERIOD
The iamCDN Trial offer is restricted to the first 14 days of account activity, or until the customer has reached their plan limit of 2TB. After customer reaches the maximum 2TB or 14 days of their trial, account will automatically suspend unless customer selects plan in customer portal and adds billing method.
ACTIONS TAKEN BY iamCDN
The failure by a customer to meet or follow any of the AUP is grounds for account deactivation. iamCDN will be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes a violation of the AUP. iamCDN reserves the right to remove any account without prior notice and to refuse service to anyone at any time. When iamCDN becomes aware of an alleged violation of its AUP, iamCDN will initiate an investigation.
During the investigation, iamCDN may restrict a customer’s access in order to prevent further potentially unauthorized activity. Depending on the severity of the violation, iamCDN may, at its sole discretion, restrict, suspend, or terminate a customer’s account and/or pursue other civil remedies. If such violation is a criminal offense, iamCDN will notify the appropriate law enforcement authorities of such violation. An unlisted activity may also be a violation of the AUP if it is illegal, irresponsible, or constitutes disruptive use of the Internet.
iamCDN does not issue credits for outages incurred through service disablement resulting from AUP violations. iamCDN customers agree to indemnify and hold harmless iamCDN from any claims resulting from the use of our services that damages them or any other party that occur as a result of AUP violations.
