Through its JangoSMTP^TM (the “Services”) JangoSMTP provides web site operators and other individuals a variety of tools and resources to send single-recipient emails. This service may not be used for the sending of unsolicited email (sometimes called “spam”). See our Anti-Spam Policy. The following are the terms and conditions for use of the Services. By checking the “I accept these terms and conditions” box on the Sign Up page or after logging in for the first time, you accept these terms and conditions.

1. Services and Support

1.1 The Services are provided subject to this Agreement, as it may be amended by JangoSMTP, and any guidelines, rules or operating policies that JangoSMTP may establish and post from time to time (the “Agreement”). By posting updated versions of the Agreement at the JangoSMTP.com web site, or otherwise providing notice to you, JangoSMTP may modify the terms of the Agreement and may discontinue or revise any or all other aspects of the Services at its sole discretion. All such changes shall become effective upon posting of the revised Agreement on the Service.

1.2 The Services are available only to persons who can form legally binding contracts under applicable law. Without limiting the foregoing, the Services are not available to individuals under the age of 18. If you do not qualify, please do not use the Services. The Services belong to the party making direct payment to JangoSMTP. In the event of an account dispute, JangoSMTP will lock all access to an account until this determination is made. Once the paying party is identified, the account will be released to that party alone.

1.3 The Services enable people and software applications to send transactional email over an SMTP relay or through our API.

1.4 Both the number of email messages sent and the number of KiloBytes (KB) of data transferred are metered by JangoSMTP. Normal JangoSMTP accounts allow you to send a fixed number of email messages per month with the total KB data transfer of all messages averaging 100KB multiplied by the total number of allowed email messages per month. Additional data transfer may be purchased at U.S. $10.00 per 1GB of data transfer. Unused email volume and unused data transfer do not carry over from month to month.

1.5 For standard accounts, the Services will be subject to monthly subscription fees (“Paid Services”). Access to the Services will be disabled until payment is received. Paid Services are billed quarterly, 3 months at a time, in advance, according to the Fee Schedule provided to you by JangoSMTP, unless alternate billing arrangements have been agreed to by you and an authorized JangoSMTP representative. The Fee Schedule, including volumes of email, data transfer limits, and prices, are subject to change at any time. All fees paid to JangoSMTP for JangoSMTP are non-refundable, unless account is terminated by JangoSMTP for a reason other than violation of the Anti-Spam Policy. Payment for Services will be made by a valid credit card accepted by JangoSMTP, unless other payment arrangements have been made between you and an authorized JangoSMTP representative. You hereby authorize JangoSMTP to charge your credit card for such amounts on a regular basis, but generally at the beginning of the quarter every quarter anniversary date of your account. You may upgrade your account for a particular monthly period from your base level subscription to allow more email sending or more data transfer for a particular month. In such cases, you authorize JangoSMTP to charge your credit card on the day you upgrade, the difference between the new level to which you are upgrading and the base level. If you do not upgrade but you still send more emails or use more data transfer than your prepaid level during a particular monthly period, you authorize JangoSMTP to bill for the actual service level used minus the prepaid amount. Fees are payable in US dollars. If JangoSMTP is for any reason unable to effect automatic payment via your credit card, you will be notified via email and your JangoSMTP account will be disabled until payment is received. Monthly pricing may vary based upon number of emails sent and size of emails sent, and you are responsible for reviewing the Fee Schedule from time to time and remaining aware of the Fees charged by JangoSMTP.

1.6 For pay-as-you-go accounts (also known as overage-allowed accounts), available only by special request, the Services will be subject to minimum monthly subscription fees (“Paid Services”) of not less than $12. Access to the Services will be disabled until payment is received. Paid Services are billed quarterly, 3 months at a time, in advance, according to the Fee Schedule provided to you by JangoSMTP, and at the end of each month, depending on how many email messages and how much data was transferred during the month. The fee at the end of the month will be calculated using a modified version of the Fee Schedule minus the pre-paid subscription amount for the month. The modified version of the Fee Schedule will be the normal Fee Schedule, except that pricing tiers are broken down into $100 increments. The Fee Schedule, including volumes of email, data transfer limits, and prices, are subject to change at any time. All fees paid to JangoSMTP for JangoSMTP are non-refundable, unless account is terminated by JangoSMTP for a reason other than violation of the Anti-Spam Policy. Payment for Services will be made by a valid credit card accepted by JangoSMTP, unless other payment arrangements have been made between you and an authorized JangoSMTP representative. You hereby authorize JangoSMTP to charge your credit card for such amounts at the beginning of the quarter every quarter anniversary date of your account and at the end of every month, based on number of email messages sent and amount of data transferred. Fees are payable in US dollars. If JangoSMTP is for any reason unable to effect automatic payment via your credit card, you will be notified via email and your JangoSMTP account will be disabled until payment is received. Monthly pricing may vary based upon number of emails sent and size of emails sent, and you are responsible for reviewing the Fee Schedule from time to time and remaining aware of the Fees charged by JangoSMTP.

1.7 For all accounts, JangoSMTP may charge an account re-activation fee should an account need to be re-activated by customer after account has become de-activated due to non-payment or an untimely authorization for payment.

1.8 You must complete the registration form on the Sign Up page in order to use the Services. You will provide true, accurate, current, and complete information about yourself as requested in the Sign Up form. As part of the registration process, you will identify an email address and password for your JangoSMTP account. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account, passwords, and files, and for all uses of your account and of the Services in your name. JangoSMTP reserves the right to refuse registration of, or cancel, accounts it deems inappropriate.

1.9 It is understood that JangoSMTP makes no guarantee that HTML messages will be rendered properly on all recipients’ email programs, due to the wide variety of HTML generation tools available. JangoSMTP makes every attempt to make sure that all email messages sent through our servers follow W3C and IETF email standards, but we cannot guarantee that messages will look consistent across all email platforms due to the number of different HTML composition tools available. For example, if you use Microsoft Word to generate HTML email messages, it is expected that recipients of your message using a non-Microsoft email application may have difficulty reading your message. For best results JangoSMTP recommends, but does not guarantee, the use of HTML editors that generate HTML that adheres to W3C standards.

1.10 To receive support, you can fill out the form here or call the support telephone number listed on the “Contact Us” page of the JangoSMTP web site. Emails about new support issues sent directly to a JangoSMTP staff member may result in a delayed response. Some support issues are outside the scope of JangoSMTP’s standard support — these issues may be denied support altogether or quoted for separately, at which time the customer will have the opportunity to decide whether to have the JangoSMTP staff person proceed or not.

Except for such refund, JangoSMTP shall have no liability to you or any third party because of such termination. If JangoSMTP terminates this agreement because you violated the Anti-Spam policy, no refund will be issued.
