Netscape Connect Member Agreement


Welcome to the Netscape Connect Internet service ("the Service"). This Member Agreement is a legal document that details your rights and obligations as a member of the Service. You cannot become a member of the Service until you have unconditionally accepted the terms of this Member Agreement, so you should take the time to read and understand it.

The Service is brought to you by AOL LLC (formerly known as America Online, Inc.) ("AOL") and its subsidiaries that will operate the Service, including Netscape Communications Corporation (collectively, either "we" or "us").

1. QUESTIONS; MODIFICATION TO MEMBER AGREEMENT
Please review our Privacy Policy and the Community Guidelines, which reflect our current policies. Those policies and this Member Agreement form our Terms of Service ("TOS"). You understand that your use of the Service will be subject to the TOS.

The Internet is a rapidly changing medium. We may have to update or revise these policies as technology and our business continue to evolve. Since our TOS may change, you should periodically check "Keyword: TOS" for the most current version.

For the same reasons, it may be necessary for us to update or revise certain provisions of the Member Agreement. By joining the Service and accepting the Member Agreement, you agree that we may change the terms of this Member Agreement and the TOS. If we make material changes or revisions to the Member Agreement, we will provide notice to you thirty days in advance under the electronic notice procedure described below or other reasonable means. If you don't agree to the changes proposed by us or to any of the terms in this Member Agreement, your only remedy is to cancel your membership to the Service.

2. THE BASICS OF YOUR SERVICE

Entire Agreement

The terms of this Member Agreement and the pricing and billing details published on the Service located at Keyword: BILLING constitute the entire and only agreement between you and us (the "Member Agreement"). To access the Service, you must accept the terms of this Member Agreement and the Privacy Policy and comply with the Community Guidelines. You understand that independent contractors may manage certain areas on the Service and they may have their own terms of use that will be binding on you. Further, there may be additional terms and conditions that you must honor if you use services or products offered by us or by a third party.

Registration

To be a member of the Service, you must be a U.S. resident, at least 18 years old and legally capable of entering into contracts. You agree to (a) provide us true, accurate and complete information about yourself during the registration process and (b) promptly update the registration information to keep it accurate and complete. We reserve the right to limit you to one free trial or promotion that cannot be combined with other offers.

Master Account;Subaccounts

When you accept this Member Agreement and complete the registration process for the Service, we will open an account for you. You will select (or we will assign you) a primary master screen name that will be identified with your account for the life of your account. You can use this primary master screen name to log on to the Service and to send e-mail. You will not be able to change your primary master screen name; however, depending on your plan, you will have the opportunity to open sub-accounts by creating additional screen names. Primary master screen names have access to online account management features such as billing and Parental Controls, and are not intended for use by children under the age of 18. All screen names affiliated with your account are our property and, at our sole discretion, expire upon the cancellation or termination of your account. You may not use a member name that is used by someone else, and your member name cannot be vulgar, or be used in any way that violates the other parts of the Member Agreement. If you open a sub-account for a child under the age of 18, you certify that you are the child's parent or legal guardian and you agree to the Service's policies and practices in areas that may be created on the Service for children's screen names or on areas created generally for children.

As the primary master account holder, you are responsible for all activity on your account and on any of the sub-accounts. You are also responsible for ensuring that all account activity complies with the Member Agreement, the TOS and all applicable laws. Violations or warnings accrued by any of these sub-accounts can lead to termination of your membership to the Service by us. If warnings or violations are received by any sub-accounts, you will also be notified at your master account member name. You may also receive important notices about your membership from time to time that may not be provided to the sub-accounts, so it is important for you to regularly check your master account mailbox(es).

Parent

Because you are responsible for all use of your account, you should supervise any use of your account or sub-accounts by others. This is especially important when children are using the Service; children are safer online and get more out of the experience with adult supervision. We provide you with Parental Controls to help you manage the content and features your children may access online. We encourage you to create a separate sub-account and screen name for each child using your account and to select the Parental Control option that is available to you. You may use your master account to set the Parental Controls for your sub-accounts, and can obtain further detailed information at "Keyword: PARENTAL CONTROLS."

Your password is the key that unlocks your account. You agree not to reveal your password to others, and to indemnify and hold us harmless for any improper or illegal use of your account. This includes illegal or improper use by someone to whom you have given permission to use your account or any of its sub-accounts. Your account is at risk if you let someone use it inappropriately. If your membership is terminated for violating this Member Agreement, our express permission will be necessary before you are allowed to use the Service again.

Modifications to the Service

We may discontinue, add to, modify, upgrade or replace all aspects of the Service in our sole discretion and without notice, including access to support services, publications and other products or services ancillary to the Service or membership. In particular, we reserve the right in our sole discretion to modify, supplement, delete, discontinue or remove any service, product, software, file, publications, information, communication or other content appearing on or transmitted through the Service. You also give us permission to adjust settings on your personal computer and operating system as are reasonably necessary to enable your use of the Service.

3. CHARGES, BILLING

Plans

The Service offers a monthly plan, giving you the flexibility to cancel your subscription at the end of each monthly billing cycle.

Prices

Prices and payment methods for the access plan are provided to you when you register. You can always find current prices at "Keyword: BILLING". You agree to pay the subscription fee as provided in this agreement under the then current rates set forth in Keyword: BILLING. Generally, prices consist of a basic rate for the plan period (i.e., a month). Surcharges apply if you use certain payment methods (such as payment from your checking account, if available) or certain telephone numbers to access the Service; you can get information about these surcharges at Keyword: BILLING. We reserve the right to change our fees and billing methods at any time. We will provide notice of any such change at least thirty days in advance in the same manner described above for changes to the Member Agreement. You authorize us to collect applicable taxes and impose premium surcharges for some areas of the service, and these surcharges may apply even during any free promotion. Any questions you have concerning your account or billing can be addressed as follows:

Netscape Connect
P.O. Box 17100
Jacksonville, FL 32245-7100

Telephone: 1-888-855-0942
If you don't like the changes in fees or billing methods, you may cancel your membership at any time, but we will not refund any remaining portion of the basic rate you paid for the Service before you cancel your membership. If you have joined the Service under any special promotion, such as a trial member, you should understand that your free promotion must be used within the time period specified in the offer. To avoid being charged a membership fee, you must cancel your account before the end of that promotion.

Contact Information

The answers to many common billing questions can be found by selecting "Accounts and Billing" or "Keyword: BILLING" or by contacting a customer service representative at 1-888-855-0942.

Payment Responsibilities

You must select a payment method to pay for your Service membership fees and all other purchases made from the Service. As the primary master account holder, you are responsible for all charges incurred, including applicable taxes and purchases made by you or anyone you allow to use your account or sub-accounts, including your children, other members of your family or friends. This means that, unless your account or payment method information is obtained unlawfully or fraudulently by someone other than those you allow to use your account or sub-account, you will be responsible for all usage and purchases under your account or sub-accounts.

There may be extra charges to access certain premium content on the Service. You will receive notice of any extra charges that may be involved before you enter the premium area. You are responsible for any charges for premium content incurred using your account (including sub-accounts) and these charges apply even during any free promotion we may offer. Some Web sites charge separate fees, which are not included in the cost of your Service membership. We provide access to a large number of third-party vendors, who provide content, goods and or services on the Service. Any separate charges or obligations you incur in your dealings with these third parties are your responsibility and are not part of the fee charged for your Service membership.

We will bill you through your account that is assigned to your primary master screen name. You agree to pay us for all charges incurred under your account, including all applicable taxes, fees and surcharges. You authorize us to charge your designated payment method for these charges. If we do not receive payment from your designated payment method, you agree to pay all amounts due upon demand by us.

Payment Obligations

We expect you to pay your account balance on time. We will give you 30 days from the date on your account statement to pay your bill. You are responsible and liable for any fees, including attorney and collection fees, that we may incur in our efforts to collect any remaining balances from you. You also agree that you will be billed for and will pay any outstanding balances if you cancel your membership or are terminated. You should let us know about any billing problems or discrepancies within 90 days after they first appear on your account statement. If you do not bring them to our attention within 90 days, you agree that you waive your right to dispute such problems or discrepancies.

In the event we are unable to collect your account balance on time, you authorize us to suspend any performance or access to all or a portion of the Service as we deem appropriate and necessary until we receive due performance from you. Additionally, we may terminate your account if you do not pay your account balance on time. You acknowledge and you are hereby notified that if you default more than once on your payment obligations to us, we may terminate your account and that you waive any other requirement of notice.

Communications Charges

You are responsible for obtaining and maintaining at your expense all equipment and services needed to access the Service. If you are using dial-up access, you are responsible for any telephone charges you may incur by accessing the Service. The use of any Netscape Connect access number is the same as making a telephone call to that number and, therefore, may result in additional charges on your telephone bill depending on your location and calling plan. The locations and area codes listed in connection with these numbers are not necessarily indicative of whether a call will be local or toll free for you. Since these charges are your responsibility, you should contact your local telephone company if you have a question about whether an access number is a long-distance or toll call from your location. This is especially important if there have been changes in area code designations, in your telephone service providers, or in your calling plan. We have no information on whether your use of a particular access number will result in phone charges. The Service also provides several 800 or 888 access numbers and certain access numbers in Alaska that include the payment of a surcharge. For the current surcharge, rates go to "Keyword: PHONES". If you choose to use these surcharged numbers to access the Service, you agree to pay the currently applicable surcharge. If you have other questions about access numbers, you should consult "Keyword: PHONES." It is important to note that you can incur long-distance or toll charges or surcharges for 800 or 888 access, even during any free trial we may offer.


4. ONLINE CONDUCT AND CONTENT

Content

By content, we mean the text, links, software, communications and publishing tools, images, animation, video, music, sounds, data and other information provided online. In general, we do not pre-screen content available on the Service that has been created by third parties. We do not pre-screen, endorse or assume any responsibility or liability for content that is provided by others on the Service or on the Internet. We reserve the right to remove content on the Service that, in our judgment, does not meet our standards or does not comply with the TOS, but we are not responsible for any failure or delay in removing such material. Keep in mind that we are not responsible for content available on the Internet. We reserve the right to block access to any Internet area containing illegal or other harmful content or otherwise being used for purposes that are unlawful or injurious to us or our members, but we are not responsible for any failure or delay in blocking such access.

Use of Service

As a Member of the Service, you agree to abide by the TOS. You acknowledge that we have the right to enforce the TOS at our sole discretion. This means that if you, or anyone using your account violates the TOS, we may take action against your account. This action can range from (a) issuing a warning about a violation or (b) suspending access to all or certain portions of the Service, or (c) terminating your membership. You agree that we are not required to provide notice prior to terminating your membership for violating these TOS, but we may choose to do so. You understand and agree that the independent contractors, who manage certain content areas on the Service, may suspend access to their content areas on the Service for violations of the TOS. You agree that we will not be liable to you for such actions taken by the independent contractors. Your obligation to pay your membership fee will continue even if you are suspended from access to certain areas on the Service for a TOS violation. Additionally, as a member of the Service, you may have access to other branded services, such as AOL Instant MessengerTM, that we make available to both Service members and to other Internet users. When using these branded services, your conduct remains subject to this Member Agreement; however, non-Service members who use these services are not subject to this Member Agreement. As a result, you understand that these other users may not be governed by the same rules or standards. Because of the changing nature of the Internet and online services, the Community Guidelines may change at any time. You can always find the most current version of the Community Guidelines at "Keyword: TOS."

Operating Practices and Permissible Use.

You understand and acknowledge that the Service is intended for your personal, residential use, and may not be used for any commercial or enterprise purposes, whether or not for profit. The Service is not offered or designed to provide an "always on" or "always connected" capability. You agree that we reserve the right in our complete and sole discretion to establish general operating practices to protect and maximize the operation of the Service and its computer network for the greatest benefit of its members. These operating practices may include timed sign offs for users who are inactive for an extended period of time and other reasonable limits against excessive and abusive consumption of the service.


Unsolicited Bulk E-mail

You may not use the Service to send unsolicited bulk e-mail and other forms of unsolicited bulk electronic communications, such as in chat rooms, message boards or messaging products. You may not allow or cause others to send unsolicited bulk email or other communications through your account. You may not use the Member Directory or any other area of the Service to harvest or collect information, including screen names, about Service members for the purpose of sending unsolicited bulk email or other communications. Any violation of these provisions can subject your account to immediate termination and further legal action. If you have received junk e-mail and want to report it, simply use the Forward button on the e-mail screen and send the e-mail to screen name TOSReport. We reserve the right to take any and all legal and technical remedies to prevent unsolicited bulk e-mail or other communications from entering, utilizing or remaining within the Service's network, but we have no liability for any unsolicited bulk e-mail or other communications sent by third parties on or through the Service. You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless for any unsolicited bulk e-mail or other communications sent through your account or any of its sub-accounts.

Similarly, other content owners may take criminal or civil action against you. You agree to indemnify and hold harmless us and our respective subsidiaries, affiliates, related companies, employees, officers, business partners, affinity partners, directors and agents from any misuse, infringement or violation of any proprietary rights in connection with your use of the Service and/or your account.

You agree to use the Software in accordance with these rules. You may not sub-license or lease the Software, or charge others to use the software or to access the Service without first obtaining written permission from us. We will occasionally provide automatic upgrades to improve your online experience, and we employ virus-screening technology to assist in the protection of our network and our members, but we are not responsible for any failure or delay in providing such upgrades or virus-screening technology.
