Force Majeure Event

Privacy

CITS does not disclose your personal information to any parties outside CITS, except as required by law or by domain registrars to process your domain application. CITS will not release, make public or sell your personal information to a third party, unless written permission has been given to us by you requesting us to do so, or unless we are required to do so by Australian law with the correct jurisdiction.

Additionally to the above, this Pinch Payments Privacy Policy applies to all direct debit payments and this eWay Privacy Policy applies to all credit card payments through CITS.

Our Terms and Conditions

1. Payment Terms:

1.1. By accepting these Terms and Conditions you agree to an ongoing automatic payment via Credit Card, Debit Card, Direct Debit or PayPal.

1.2. Transaction fees will be charged via payments made using credit card, debit card, direct debit, or PayPal.

1.3. Direct Debit, Credit Card or Debit Card recurring payments will happen automatically each month unless you choose a different payment method. By making payment with a card, you authorise us to automatically bill you each month through our secure token-based gateway, EWAY or unless you’ve opted in to credit card payments via Pinch Payments.

1.4. If you choose PayPal as your payment method, you will need to select the "PayPal Subscribe" option for recurring payments to happen automatically each month.

1.5. If we agree to accept any other payment type, such as: Cheque payments, these will incur a $2 processing fee per transaction. If you prefer not to have any transaction fees, please contact us to arrange approval to pay via EFT (electronic funds transfer).

1.6. Overdue invoices may incur a $15.00 (+GST) admin fee. In the event of any service being suspended due to non-payment, an additional $10.00 reconnection fee will also be payable before the service is unsuspended. In the event of a service being cancelled due to non-payment, all outstanding invoices are due and payable in full, and for any reconnections, a $99 (inc GST) setup fee will apply.

1.7. CITS's aim is to reduce costs as far as possible. This is largely done through automating our processes.

2.  Payment in Advance:

2.1. Ongoing fees are charged in advance (at the beginning of each month) and cancellations occur at the end of the monthly period.

2.2. No refunds will be made for any unused portion of a single month (even if it is just 1 day). CITS have no long-term contracts (unless otherwise specified for specific service options) and operate a Month-to-Month service, we invoice you 15 days in advance and require a 30 day notice period of cancellation.

2.3. A month is considered as the smallest term of service and will be charged in full regardless of the number of days used in that month.

2.4. Monthly service fees (eg. your plan fee) are charged in advance and usage related items (non-included calls, excess SMS, excess mobile data etc.) are billed in arrears.

For example: A bill issued on 1st January will have monthly service charges for 1st - 31st January and any usage related charges from December.

3. Cancellation Terms:

3.1. CITS operates Month-to-Month services. Either the Client or CITS may terminate the agreement, or a particular Service, by giving 30 days’ notice to the other. For example, if notice is given 30 days or more before the Next Due Date, termination will take effect on the Due Date. However, if notice is given less than 30 days before the Next Due Date, or just after the Due Date, the following month will be due in full.

3.2. A cancellation request for any Sonic Internet, Sonic Mobile, Sonic ADSL Broadband, Web Hosting, Email Hosting, Dedicated Server or Virtual Private Server Hosting, Co-location or Domain Name Registration service (unless the domain expires prior) must be received with 30 days’ notice,

via our Client Areahttps://portal.sonicnet.net.au/index.php?rp=/login

via Email (using an email address listed as a contact on your account) to support@sonicnet.net.au

via the Contact Form on our website https://portal.sonicnet.net.au/contact.php

3.3. If we receive no cancellation request from you, either through the client area, via email (using an email address listed as a contact on your account) to support@sonicnet.net.au or completing the contact form on our website, your account will remain active and payable until such time as we do receive a formal cancellation.

3.4. Your service may be suspended due to non-payment even though your account is still active. It is agreed that the service will not be cancelled until you notify us using one of the above contact methods. To put it simply, we do not know if you want the service cancelled until you formally inform us via one of the 3 methods above.

3.5. In the event of any service being suspended due to non-payment, a minimum $10.00 (inc GST) reconnection fee will be payable before the service is unsuspended. In the event of a service being cancelled due to non-payment, all outstanding invoices are due and payable in full, and for any reconnections, a minimum $99 (inc GST) setup fee will apply.

3.6. CITS offer no long-term contract, only month to month services unless specified.

3.7. Your account will remain Active with all invoices owing in full, regardless of whether a service is suspended until such time as you have sent a formal cancellation request.

3.8. For a cancelled service, the final invoice/s are due in full. No part-refunds or full-refunds will be provided by CITS for the final month for any cancelled service. Failure to give cancellation notice of the service at least 30 days before the next invoice's Due Date, or if the service is still active for part of the following month after cancellation has been requested, will result in an additional invoice being generated. After your cancellation request is received this invoice will become the final monthly payment that is due in full.

3.9. If you selected the "PayPal Subscribe" option as your method of payment, and you cancel your service with us, it is up to you to cancel the Subscription in your PayPal Login to end any ongoing Subscription Payments.

3.10. If an incorrect domain name is ordered or an error is made during the order, a cancellation request for the new Domain Registration must be completed via the form https://sonicnet.net.au/support within the first 2 days of registration. There is no guarantee we can fulfil the cancellation with the applicable Registry; however, we will do all we can to get a successful cancellation and refund. If a cancellation is not possible, then there will be no refund for your domain.

3.11. Cancellation, by the Client or CITS, will result in any data being permanently removed from CITS servers. Clients are solely responsible for ensuring that backups are made of web content and email data, or any data stored within their hosting space. CITS will not be liable for loss of data or be obliged to provide any such data once the hosting has been cancelled or expired. Any backups made by CITS will be made for legal purposes and not for data retention purposes and will not necessarily be made available to Clients on request. Please see our separate Hosting Terms & Conditions.

.au domains Code of Practice

ICANN's Registrants' Benefits and Responsibilities

9. NBN Broadband and ADSL Broadband Terms:

9.1. CITS provides internet services on CITS's and its Supplier's infrastructure on behalf of its Applicants ("Applicant"). These terms and conditions apply to NBN Broadband and ADSL Broadband services offered by CITS, known as Sonic Internet.

9.2. End User Agreement:

9.2.1. For ADSL services we are only able to provide an ADSL service if the End User has, and continues to use, a Qualified Telephone Line over which Telstra or a reseller of Telstra supplies a Standard Telephone Service. Connection of the Service will mean that Incompatible Products from our Supplier or other service providers will not be supplied on that Qualified Telephone Line.

9.2.2. If any Incompatible Products are being used, we may not supply the ADSL or NBN service on the relevant Qualified Telephone Line.

9.2.3. Installation and operation of a Monitoring Service may cause temporary disruption to an ADSL or NBN service.

9.2.4. Where the End User has, or is acquiring, a Monitoring Service the End User may need to install additional equipment (this equipment is not at CITS's cost or its Suppliers' cost and CITS or its Suppliers have no responsibility for this equipment) to be able to receive the ADSL or NBN service.

9.2.5. CITS or its Suppliers may at any time change the method of delivery of the NBN or ADSL Broadband service.

9.2.6. During a transfer of an ADSL Tail Circuit to CITS there may be a brief period when the DSL service is interrupted. CITS and its Suppliers are not liable for any interruption or delay in the transfer process.

9.2.7. During a transfer of an NBN service to CITS there may be a brief period when the NBN service is interrupted. CITS and its Suppliers are not liable for any interruption or delay in the transfer process.

9.2.8. CITS has no way of knowing if we can achieve a successful ADSL or NBN connection until provisioning is attempted. An active phone line is needed before we can provision an ADSL service and some NBN services, however there is a chance ADSL will not be possible over that line. And for NBN, the necessary infrastructure at the carrier level needs to be in place before we can provide an NBN service.

9.2.9. You agree to not hold CITS liable for any expenses occurred by its own suppliers, by the NBNCo or by any other third party providers if provisioning is not successful. This may be due to any infrastructure limitations, including network shortfall, length or quality of copper or any other infrastructure limitations.

9.2.10. If no Broadband service can be connected due to limitations with CITS or its Suppliers and Carriers infrastructure, we will refund the service fee already paid to us by you.

9.2.11. Neither CITS nor its Supplier (which may be referred to as a Carrier or Supplier to you) is liable to the End User in any circumstances (including in negligence) in relation to any Service supplied to the End User, any delay in supplying the Service or any failure to supply the service regardless of the cause of delay. Neither will we be liable for incorrect information, whether it is intentionally or unintentionally, supplied to us by the End User or anyone acting on the End User's behalf.

9.2.12. You indemnify us, and will keep us fully indemnified, from and against any losses, damages, costs, or expenses (including legal costs assessed on a solicitor client basis) which we may suffer or incur arising out of or in connection with an action or claim brought by any entity against us which relates to your use of the service.

9.2.13. Subject to statutory warranties that may apply under the Australian Consumer Law, we will not be responsible for any loss or damage to you or your business which may result from any interruptions, delays, faults, or errors in the supply of the service.

9.2.14. CITS makes no guarantees for any of its broadband speeds delivered. Whilst we will attempt to deliver our stated speeds within the limitations of our suppliers, it is to be understood this is an industry standard on explaining the upload and download speeds attainable, but very rarely achieved. This is affected by many factors, some of which are: connection method, content, source of content, number of users using the same connection, end users’ network and/or equipment and/or connections to the local exchange, distance from the local exchange.

9.2.15. CITS makes no guarantees for any of its broadband supply. We will only receive certain information from the carriers once provisioning has begun with a service. In some cases, it may mean we cannot supply broadband, and we will notify you. However, neither CITS nor its Supplier is liable for any financial loss due to this process.

9.2.16. CITS makes no guarantees for any of its broadband supply. We will only receive certain information from the carriers once provisioning has begun with a service. This is based on the information provided to us by you the End User. If incorrect information or missing information or any information regarding a property's address is withheld or not supplied to us intentionally or unintentionally, neither CITS nor its Supplier is liable for any financial loss due to this process, or due to the connection being connected at the incorrect location.

9.2.17. The End User must comply with the Acceptable Usage (9.2.19.). CITS or its Suppliers have certain obligations to assist law enforcement, Regulators, and other agencies with internet services. We may immediately suspend or terminate an NBN or ADSL Broadband service if any of the events specified in this Agreement occur, and whether this occurs, the End User remains liable for the use of the service.

9.2.18. Downloads and Uploads both count towards your Monthly Broadband Data Allowance. For ADSL once your Monthly Data Allowance is reached your speed will be slowed to 256Kbps. You have the option to remain at the slow speed until the end of the billing period when your quota is reset, or top-up your data if you think you will run out, or upgrade to the next plan.

9.2.19. Acceptable Usage (not limited to the below):

9.2.19.1. The Customer warrants that it will not use, or attempt to use, a Service: 1). to break any law or to infringe another person's rights, including violation of Intellectual Property laws including materials protected by local and international copyright, trademarks, and trade secrets; 2). that results in the sale, transmission, or distribution of pirated or illegal software; 3). that results in copyright abuse, copyright infringement or unauthorised distribution of copyrighted software or material; 4). to expose CITS or its suppliers to liability; 5). to transmit, publish or communicate material, which is defamatory, offensive, abusive, indecent, menacing, or unwanted: or 6). in any way which damages, interferes with or Interrupts the Service, the Sonic Internet Network, or a Supplier Network.

The Customer will as soon as reasonably practicable (but in any case, within one Calendar Day) comply with any such request. If the Customer does not, then CITS may, in its absolute discretion and without liability, take any steps reasonably necessary to ensure compliance with 9.2.19. including suspending or cancelling the entire Service.

9.2.21. Whether or not CITS supply you with a Modem/Router it should be plugged into a surge protection power-board. CITS does not cover any hardware loss from power spikes in electricity or any hardware loss from lightning in your area. Service Terms for CITS supplied hardware may allow for hardware replacements, at CITS's sole discretion, within the first year.

9.2.22. This agreement and indemnities relate to CITS and our third-party Suppliers and may be exercised by them, as we may use third party Suppliers to provide any part of our services.
