Payments not received by the 10th of each month will result in the suspension of services. Setup fees are charged for all new accounts and major account changes and any setup fees incurred are non-refundable. All pricing is guaranteed for the term of pre-payment.

Accounts that have been suspended may be subject to a $50.00 re-activation fee. Customers who are past due 90 days or more will be required to pay the balance of the year and convert to a prepaid annual contract if they want to retain services. The customer is responsible for all money owed on the account from the time that it was established to the time that the customer notifies Axiom Media to terminate services. Payments must be made in U.S. currency. Axiom Media will bill each customer a minimum $50 fee per returned check. If a customer chooses to move services away from Axiom media rather than agree to the terms of a modified annual agreement they must still bring their account current including penalties and fees before domains under a lease agreement will be transferred (see "Domain Management" below for terms and fees).
Domain Management
The renewal date for domains is January 1 of each year regardless of the expiration date found in the publilc whois database. At times we consolidate the expiration dates of domains using industry methods for management purposes. Should a client wish to discontinue the use of Axiom Media domain management services; customers may cancel the service at any time by giving us 30 days notice in writing. You must pay the full balance of the account within 14 days of receiving the final invoice, which may include charges incurred or billed after the date of your cancellation notice and other termination and cancellation charges. We will not pay you a refund for any unused part of the service. There is a $150 fee to create a client registrar account, move said domain into client account, update the whois back to the client, remove private registration and unlock the domain. This is the only method by which we will transfer domains out of the Axiom Media account. You must download and submit your request for transfer using our "Termination of Services Request" document.
If client wants to move files from the Axiom Media server to a new provider there will be a $500 transfer fee to transfer the files to another provider. Proprietary content and/or code developed by Axiom Media is non-transferrable. The new provider must leave the "Site Design by Axiom Media" notice affixed to the site. Any claim of development by other providers will be enforced in a court of law.
In the event a client does not pay the annual renewal fee for their domain(s), the domain(s) will expire on January 10th at midnight. All domain and related services will expire. We cannot prevent this action from occuring. You will have a 19 day grace period before your domain enters what is called a Registry Redemption Period (http://help.godaddy.com/article/5018). During this time there will be an additional fee to recover the domain from the redemption period as well as reactivate services. If a domain is not recovered from this redemption period it will become available for sale to the general public.
Sale or Transfer of Domain
Client has entered into a lease agreement of a domain, unless Client owned said domains prior to entering into agreement with Axiom Media. If Client would like to purchase such domain name it will be separate from this agreement and subject to terms of “Domain Sale or Transfer” as specified in Terms and Conditions of Sale or Transfer of Axiom Media policies. The client has first right to purchase domain but is not guaranteed a sale of the domain. The client will continue to lease the said domain from Axiom Media and a change of DNS will occur should the client choose to transfer the hosting of any domains in agreement with Axiom Media.
