TERMS OF SERVICE

Bopspam.co.uk (hereafter "Bopspam") is a service offered by NetBop Technologies Ltd (hereafter "NetBop"), a Registered Limited Company in England & Wales (5017288), the intent of which is to reduce the burden of unsolicited electronic mail ("spam") on the customer (herafter "User").

Nature of Service. User explicitly understands and accepts that Bopspam is an email filtering service, the purpose of which is to block undesirable email while at the same time permitting desirable email to reach the user. User understands and accepts that while Bopspam makes an effort to perform this function successfully, the nature of the service is such that desirable emails may be blocked from time to time. User explicitly understands and accepts this inherent risk of using an email filter and understands that the User is responsible for reviewing the blocked email to verify that desirable email has not been blocked.

Permission to Block Mail. User explicitly grants Bopspam and NetBop permission to block email which are judged to be undesirable and affirms to 3rd parties, such as the senders of such undesirable email, that the User does not wish to receive such email and is utilising Bopspam in order to accomplish that goal. Bopspam is not engaged in censorship nor interfering with existing business relationships or contracts; rather Bopspam is carrying out the User's goal and desire of blocking email deemed to be undesirable, and User is voluntarily using Bopspam to that end.

Legal Limit of Liability. User explicitly indemnifies and holds harmless NetBop it's agent, employee, owner and other representatives, for any and all losses or claims that arise from the use or misuse of Bopspam, including but not limited to the incorrect blocking of desirable mail, the failure to block undesirable mail, failure of Bopspam to successfully download email from the User's POP3 account, loss of email, and any and all consequential damages that may arise due to any of the previously disclaimed possible failures.

Financial Limit of Liability. User understands and accepts that in no case shall Bopspam or NetBop, jointly or separately, be financially liable for an amount greater than the amount the User paid for the service.

Uptime Performance. NetBop will make a professional effort to ensure that Bopspam is accessible and functional as reliably as possible. However, network interruptions may occur at any point in the Internet infrastructure as well as at the Bopspam server(s) or Bopspam's Internet provider and NetBop and Bopspam cannot make specific guarantees as to the level of reliability that the User will experience from any specific point on the Internet.

Refund Policy. Bopspam will generally not issue refunds since User is granted a 30-day no-risk, no-obligation free trial of the service. Requests for refunds will be handled on a case by case basis and the circumstances will dictate whether a refund is granted. If a refund is granted, the refund will be based on the pro-rated volume consumed or the pro-rated time transpired, whichever is less, and will be made to the credit card used to pay for the service.

Extended Downtime Policy. If, for any reason, Bopspam's server(s) suffer downtime for a period of more than 72 consecutive hours, User will have their paid subscription extended by the number of hours the server(s) were down. This will not apply to free trial accounts and only applies to downtime caused by Bopspam or its immediate Internet provider.

User Agreement Not To Inappropriately Promote Bopspam. User is encouraged to alert others to the existince of Bopspam so that others may enjoy the benefits of reduced spam. However, under no circumstance will User promote Bopspam by method of spam, nor will User promote Bopspam on any site of questionable morals or values, including pornographic, racist, or illegal sites. Promoting Bopspam in any of these manners will result in User's account being cancelled immediately and permanently.

User Agreement Not To Use Bopspam to Test Spam. User agrees that Bopspam may under no circumstance be used with the intent of intentionally receiving spam to determine whether that spam would have been caught by Bopspam. Engaging in this kind of testing will result in User's account being cancelled immediately and permanently.

Email that is reported as spam will be reviewed by a human being in order to create new filters and improve the efficiency and accuracy of Bopspam. This emails are not linked to User's account and are completely purged and deleted once useful filtering information has been obtained from the review. In the event the spam contains any personal information, said information will be discarded and in no way retained or used by Bopspam or NetBop.

Limited Emailing Permitted. Bopspam does reserve the right to contact User via email to notify the User that their account has or is about to expire, to notify the User of charges to his or her credit card by NetBop, to optionally notify the User of email that has been blocked by the service in the last 24 hours, and, when warranted, notify the User of substantial news or information regarding the service. Neither NetBop nor Bopspam will send email to User that is not substantially related to the service.

Browser Cookies Required. Bopspam uses client-side browser cookies in order to maintain browser sessions when the User logs into the service. These cookies are mandatory in order for the service to work and blocking them will prevent the user from logging on.
