If any information provided by you is untrue or incomplete, XtremeGameServers has the right to terminate your service and disallow you from subscribing to any other services provided by XtremeGameServers. XtremeGameServers reserves the right to cancel the customer’s service at any given time if we have any suspicion of them not abiding to this terms of service agreement.
Pricing
Rates: Subscriber acknowledges that the nature of the Service furnished and the initial rates and charges have been communicated to Subscriber. Subscriber is aware that XtremeGameServers may prospectively change the specified rates and hosting / server accounts from time to time on its Web site. Any Subscriber who has signed up at a certain monthly pricing rate and hosting / server specification size will remain on that pricing/specification for a time period of at least six months from signup. Of course, you may upgrade/downgrade to a new hosting / server offer during this time, if required. Our advertised plans may increase or decrease in price at anytime depending on the current market. XtremeGameServers will make a best effort to communicate any changes in pricing or packages to the customer and make this information available on the XtremeGameServers website.
Terms
This Agreement shall be for an "Initial Term" as chosen by you in the Order Form located on this Site at the time you register for the Services. This Agreement will be automatically renewed at the end of the Initial Term for the same period as the Initial Term unless you provide XtremeGameServers.org with notice of termination seven (7) days prior to the end of the Initial Term or the Renewal Term.
Payments & Cancellations
All payments are due before service begins. Service payments are expected on or before their due date. Since service suspensions and termination of service is handled by our automated systems, requests to cancel your service will be honored only if made through the XtremeGameServers Support Ticket System  The owner of the server can only make this cancellation; upon request the cancellation will be instant. If server has not been cancelled and payment continues due to the automatic billing system no refunds will be placed. XtremeGameServers requires a seven (7) day written cancellation notice prior to the start of the next billing cycle for discontinuance of service which also include downgrades of services. Failure to supply the requisite seven (7) days written notice of cancellation will result in a full billable monthly cycle prior to cancellation.

Your failure to fully pay any fees and taxes within 72 hours from the applicable due date is a material breach of this Agreement, justifying XtremeGameServers to suspend its performance and terminate this Agreement. If XtremeGameServers terminates for your material breach, you will be required to pay immediately all fees and costs accrued before the termination date, all monthly recurring fees for each month remaining in the term and any other amounts you owe to XtremeGameServers under this Agreement.

Server Config Related Downtime
XtremeGameServers offers no guarantee of uptime where the configuration of the game server instance itself is the cause of the downtime. We will however work diligently to get it running again if such downtime occurs. While we do monitor game servers for uptime, it is the customer's responsibility to report any down server issues to us where the cause is mis-configuration. All reports should be logged via the XtremeGameServers online support desk.
Server Config Related Downtime
If a game server is down for longer than the time limits specified above the compensation is a 1:1 ratio in days. So if the server is down for 25 hours due to hardware failure we will offer 2 day compensation. To receive 3 days the server would have to be down for over 48 hours, etc....
