4. Website Content Control and User Data
You control the websites you create using our Services and Enerwings does not claim
any ownership rights in any text, files, images, photos, videos, sounds, musical
works, comments, recommendations, forums, listings, logos, trademarks, postings,
messages, tags, works of authorship, or any other work or authorship added to or
submitted with any of the foregoing (collectively, “Content”) posted
by you or by Visitors or Members of your websites. Therefore, Enerwings takes no
responsibility for any Content located in your Website and Enerwings has no obligation
to monitor such Content or your Website. You are therefore responsible for the removal
of any such Content that is in violation of these Terms of Service and ensuring
compliance with these Terms of Service.
By visiting or becoming a Member of a Website created using our Services, you agree
that the Content and information you provide during the registration process (including
your email address) and other interactions with the Website may be accessed by the
Website Creator and their authorized representatives and administrators, as well
as any Application Developer whose Applications run on that Website. Similarly,
by adding or using an Application or a service provided by one of our affiliates
or business partners, you agree that the Content and information you or your Website
Visitors or Members provide in the interactions with your Website as well as that
Application or service may be accessed by the respective Application Developer,
affiliate or business partner and their authorized representatives. We require Website
Creators, Application Developers, affiliates and business partners to respect your
privacy settings and our Privacy Policy, but your agreement with that Website, Application,
affiliate or business partner will control how they can use the Content and information
shared with them. Be sure to understand the privacy settings, terms and privacy
policies of that Website, Application or service prior to your interactions. Note
that Enerwings cannot guarantee that such third parties will comply with their contractual
requirements, and Enerwings does not assume any liability or responsibility for
any third party’s actions, or for enforcing any agreements such third parties
may enter into with your or with us.
As a Website Creator, you and your authorized representatives and administrators
will have access to the email address of the Members of your Website, along with
certain information, Content and data provided or collected during their registration
and use of your Website (“Website Member Data”). Enerwings may also
provide you with access to certain Visitor data that we collect as part of our Services
(collectively with Website Member Data and other data you collect, “User Data”).
You agree to have a privacy policy or otherwise make it clear to your Visitors and
Members what User Data you are going to use and how you will use, display or share
that data. You further agree that, as between you and Enerwings, subject to this
Agreement and each User’s rights, (i) Enerwings owns all right, title and
interest, including all intellectual property rights, in and to the User Data collected
by us, and (ii) you own all right, title and interest, including all intellectual
property rights, in and to the User Data collected by you. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
in order for Enerwings to run your Website on Enerwings.com, you hereby grant Enerwings
a nonexclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, transferable, sub-licensable,
fully paid-up, royalty-free right and license to (i) use, reproduce, store, modify,
create derivative works of, distribute, publicly perform and display the User Data
on or through Enerwings.com and in all current and future media in which the Services
may be distributed; (ii) use and disclose the User Data and related metrics in an
aggregate or other non-personally identifiable manner (including, for use in targeting
advertising in a non-personally identifiable manner through and in connection with
Enerwings.com); and (iii) use User Data for other purposes permitted by the Enerwings
Privacy Policy.
5. Your Obligation to Protect User Data
If you collect or have been provided access to User Data, you hereby agree not to
use, display or share User Data in a manner inconsistent with the User’s privacy
settings, our Terms of Service and Guidelines, and all applicable laws and regulations.
You hereby further agree that your use and disclosure of User Data shall be reasonably
protective of each User’s rights and in no event shall you observe standards
of privacy and confidentiality in connection with the use and disclosure of User
Data that are less stringent than the standards set forth in our Privacy Policy.
You agree to promptly delete all User Data (i) relating to any User who de-authorizes,
disconnects or otherwise disassociates from your Website, Application or service,
(ii) if we disable your Website, Application or service, or (iii) upon request by
us or the User. Enerwings is not required to keep back-up copies of User Data on
Enerwings.com once the Website or User Data is deleted. Enerwings makes no guarantee
that User Data will be safely stored on Enerwings.com. To be safe, you should independently
back-up User Data, to the extent permitted herein and applicable laws and regulations.
You acknowledge that Enerwings may terminate the account of any User (including
Members of your Website(s) or users of your Application) in accordance with this
Agreement.
6. Proprietary Rights to Content
By displaying or publishing (“posting”) any Content on or through the
Services, you hereby grant to Enerwings a limited license to use, modify, publicly
perform, publicly display, publish, reproduce, distribute, list information regarding,
edit, translate, and make derivative works of such Content, in whole or in part,
and in any form, media or technology, whether now known or hereafter developed for
use solely in connection with the Services.
Without this license, Enerwings would be unable to provide the Services. The license
you grant to Enerwings is non-exclusive (meaning you are free to license your Content
to anyone else in addition to Enerwings), fully-paid and royalty-free (meaning that
Enerwings is not required to pay you for the use on the Services of the Content
that you post), transferable and sub-licensable (so that Enerwings is able to use
its affiliates and subcontractors such as Internet content delivery networks to
provide the Services), and worldwide (because the Internet and the Services are
global in reach). Unless you have shared your Content with others, and they have
not deleted it, this license will terminate at the time you remove your Content
from the Services, but you understand and agree that your Content may continue to
appear on Enerwings.com or websites after you remove it from the Services as portion
of your Content may remain on pages cached by third parties, incorporated into RSS
feeds, User profiles or other features, or archived on servers. Furthermore, when
you publish any Content or information using the “everyone” or “public”
settings, it means that everyone, including people off of Enerwings.com, will have
access to that information and we may not have control over what they do with it.
When you post any Content on a Website, you provide the Website Creator, other Members
of that Website or the public in general with permission to view and use your Content
depending on the Website’s privacy settings and policies. Be sure to understand
that Website’s privacy settings and policies prior to posting your Content.
You represent and warrant that: (i) you own the Content posted by you on or through
the Services or otherwise have the right to grant the license set forth in this
section, and (ii) the posting of your Content on or through the Services does not
violate the privacy rights, publicity rights, intellectual property rights, contract
rights or any other rights of any third party. You agree to pay for all royalties,
fees, and any other monies owing any person by reason of any Content posted by you
to or through the Services.
If a Website is removed from Enerwings.com, the Content associated with that Website
may also be deleted at the discretion of the Website Creator or Enerwings. We encourage
you to be sure you are comfortable with this possibility before contributing your
Content to a Website. You should be aware that Enerwings is not required and may
not keep back-up copies of Content (including your Content) on Enerwings.com once
the Website or Content is deleted. Additionally, Enerwings makes no guarantee, either
during or after the term of this Agreement, that your Content will be safely stored
on Enerwings.com and you should independently back-up your Content.
The Enerwings Services contain proprietary content that is protected by copyright,
trademark, patent, trade secret and other laws in the United States and around the
world (the “Enerwings Content”). Enerwings owns and retains all rights
in the Enerwings Content and the Services. Enerwings hereby grants you a limited,
freely revocable, non-sublicensable license to reproduce and display the Enerwings
Content (excluding any software code) solely for your personal use in connection
with using the Services. As between you and Enerwings.com, all the intellectual
property rights in the Enerwings technology, which does not include your Content,
are owned by Enerwings or its licensors.
The Enerwings Services contain Content of Users and other Enerwings licensors. Except
for Content posted by you, you may not copy, modify, translate, publish, broadcast,
archive, transmit, distribute, perform, display, decompile, reverse engineer, attempt
to access the source code, create derivative works from, rent or sell any Content
appearing on or through the Services without permission of the Content owner.
We always appreciate your feedback or other suggestions you may have about Enerwings,
but you understand that we may use them without any obligation to compensate you
for them (just as you have no obligation to offer them).
7. Content Posted
Please choose carefully the content you post on any Website and that you provide
to other Users. You may not use the Services to post, disseminate or communicate
any obscene, lewd, excessively violent, harassing, sexually explicit or otherwise
objectionable subject matter. Despite this prohibition, content communicated by
other Users may contain inaccurate, inappropriate, offensive or sexually explicit
material, products or services, and Enerwings assumes no responsibility or liability
for this material. If you become aware of misuse of the Services, please contact
us by using this form.
Without assuming any obligation to do so, Enerwings may delete any Content or suspend
any Website or account associated with it, that in the sole judgment of Enerwings
violates this Agreement or that may be offensive or illegal, or violate the rights,
harm, or threaten the safety of any person. Enerwings assumes no responsibility
for monitoring the Services for inappropriate Content or conduct. If, at any time,
Enerwings chooses, in its sole discretion, to monitor the Services, Enerwings nonetheless
assumes no responsibility for the Content, no obligation to modify or remove any
inappropriate Content, and no responsibility for the conduct of the User submitting
any such Content.
You are solely responsible for the Content that you post on or through any of the
Services, and any material or information that you transmit to other Users and for
your interactions with other Users. Enerwings does not endorse and has no control
over the Content. Content is not necessarily reviewed by Enerwings prior to posting

liability if we believe you are in violation of this provision. Enerwings further

Services are the property of their respective owners. Enerwings reserves the right
to include within your Website applicable Enerwings copyright and trademark notices
for Enerwings and links to our Terms of Service, Privacy Policy and other Guidelines.
All notices and links will be displayed consistently in such form and placement
as determined by Enerwings. For purposes of this Agreement, all templates offered
by Enerwings are copyrighted material and are considered part of Enerwings.com.
Such templates are offered for use to Enerwings users under a limited license only,
and are not offered for sale or unbridled use. Such license limits use of Enerwings
templates to websites hosted by Enerwings. Enerwings templates may not be transferred

10. User Support
As a Website Creator, you are responsible for implementing and maintaining all support
for your Website(s), including answering questions from your Members and Visitors.
If you are a Website Creator and have any question with regards to your account,
please visit our Support Center for answers to common questions or visit this page
to contact a member of our support team.
11. Premium Service
Today, our Premium Services include various options for our Website Creators such
as removing ads from your site, using your own domain name, removing Enerwings promotional
links or images, and the addition of storage space and bandwidth. Current categories
and prices of our Premium Services are described here. All prices are subject to
change from time to time. Enerwings may choose to temporarily change the fees for
the Premium Services for promotional or new services, and such changes are immediately
effective when Enerwings posts the temporary promotional event or new service on
Enerwings.com. Any changes to fees for Premium Services that are not temporary or
promotional will be effective thirty (30) days after we provide you with notice
by posting such changes on Enerwings.com. The changes shall only apply prospectively
to the Premium Services you've purchased. Unless otherwise stated, all fees are
quoted in U.S. Dollars.
Premium Services for our advanced, HTML-mode users ("Advanced Premium Services")
are provided in partnership with Network Solutions. By purchasing Advanced Premium
Services through Network Solutions including a domain name registration, you also
agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Network Solutions Service Agreement
found here. The terms of the Network Solutions Service Agreement shall apply to
your use of the Advanced Premium Services, including web hosting and domain name
registration. To the extent that any terms of the Network Solution Service Agreement
may conflict with these Terms of Service, the terms of the Network Solutions Service
Agreement shall supersede and apply with respect to the Advanced Premium Services.
12. Other Paid Services
In addition to Premium Services, as a Website Creator you may purchase other paid
services (collectively with Premium Services and Advanced Premium Services, the
“Paid Services”) which may be provided as a one-time transaction or
recurring subscription in connection with an Application or as additional services.
Such Paid Services may be provided solely by us or in collaboration with Application
Developers, affiliates or business partners. You may be presented with additional
terms related to a specific purchase before you confirm such transaction. Those
additional terms will also govern that transaction.
Please note that if you enter into a transaction with a third-party, such as by
purchasing an item through a Website hosted on Enerwings.com, and have a dispute
over the goods or services you purchased we have no liability for such goods or
services. Although we may intervene in disputes between Users concerning payments,
we have no obligation to do so.
13. Payments
You are responsible for paying all fees and applicable taxes associated with the
Paid Services in a timely manner with a valid payment method. You authorize Enerwings
to charge your credit card, charge card, debit card, PayPal, or financial institution
account (herein "Payment Method") for all charges to your accounts with
Enerwings. When you provide a Payment Method to us, you confirm that you are permitted
to use that Payment Method. You also authorize us to collect and store it, along
with other related transaction information. When you make a purchase, you authorize
us (and our designated payment processor) to charge the full amount to the Payment
Method you designate for the transaction. For Premium Services, we only offer recurring
payments; therefore, you agree that Enerwings may automatically charge the fee to
your Payment Method at the beginning of each recurring period. For example, if you
choose a Premium Service with a monthly plan, you will be billed every month on
the anniversary date of the date you clicked the "Purchase" button. Additionally,
we may offer a pre-pay payment option for payment of Premium Services ("Pre-Payment
Plan"). If you opt for a Pre-Payment Plan, your Payment Method will be charged
the then-current fee for that Premium Service at the commencement of each renewal
period.
You acknowledge and agree that any credit card and related billing and payment information
that you provide to Enerwings may be shared by Enerwings with third parties, such
as payment processors and/or credit agencies, solely for the purpose of checking
credit, effecting payment to Enerwings and servicing your account.
If you pay by credit or debit card we may obtain a pre-approval from the issuer
of the card for an amount up to the amount of the purchase. We will bill your card
at the time of purchase or shortly thereafter. If you cancel a transaction before
completion, that pre-approval may result in your funds not otherwise being immediately
available. If you pay by debit card and your payment results in an overdraft or
other fee from your bank, you alone are responsible for that fee. You agree to pay
Enerwings all charges incurred under your account for any Paid Service in which
you or anyone else who uses your account (including children, family and friends)
enroll in accordance with this Agreement and any applicable Paid Services terms.
If your Payment Method fails or your account is past due, (a) you agree to pay all
amounts due on your account upon demand and reimburse us for all reversals, charge-backs,
claims, fees, fines, penalties and other liability incurred by us (including costs
and related expenses) that were caused by or arising out of payments that you authorized
or accepted, (b) Enerwings may collect fees owed using other collection mechanisms
(this includes charging other payment methods on file with us) and (c) Enerwings
reserves the right to either suspend or terminate your Premium Services or your
account with Enerwings, including deletion of your Website from Enerwings.com. Except
as may be set forth herein, any fees charged to your account are non-refundable.
You agree to submit any disputes regarding any charge to your account in writing
to Enerwings within thirty (30) days of such charge, otherwise such dispute will
be waived and such charge will be final and not subject to challenge.
14. Taxes
You are responsible for paying any governmental taxes imposed on your use of Enerwings.com,
including, but not limited to, sales, use, or value added taxes. If requested, you
will promptly furnish to Enerwings the applicable receipts and/or certificates regarding
such remittances as soon as reasonably practicable. To the extent that Enerwings
is obligated to collect such taxes, the applicable tax will be added to your billing
account.
15. Money-Back Guarantee
Premium Services include a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you are dissatisfied
with your service for any reason, you will receive a full refund (minus domain name
registration fee and overage charges) if you cancel your paid services within 30
days of the activation of your account. The 30-day money-back guarantee does NOT
apply to domain name registration or other Paid Services. Once you purchase your
domain name, you are its owner and it cannot be "returned.”
16. Enerwings Credits; Credit Shop
You may purchase or earn credits on Enerwings.com (“Enerwings Credits”)
that you may redeem to receive various goods and services through our online credit
shop (“Credit Shop”). Even though we may use terms like “purchase,”
“buy,” “sell,” and “order” to talk about transactions
related to Enerwings Credits, we don’t transfer an ownership interest in those
items. Instead, those credits are licensed to you. Therefore, when you purchase
or receive credits, you do not own the credits; rather, you receive a limited right
to use such credits in connection with certain features and services on Enerwings.com,
such as the purchase of additional storage. Please note that purchases of Enerwings
Credits are non-refundable, and you may not transfer or sell your Enerwings Credits
to anyone. We may change the purchase price for Enerwings Credits at any time as
well as the way that you can use or transfer the credits. We also reserve the right
to stop issuing Enerwings Credits. Enerwings Credits are not redeemable for any
sum of money or monetary value from us unless we agree otherwise in writing. If
you leave a balance of Enerwings Credits unused for prolonged period of time, we
may redeem those credits by giving you item(s) from the Credit Shop in equal value.
If your account is cancelled or disabled, you will lose any accumulated credits.
17. Advertising on websites
Unless you subscribe to a Premium Service (including domain purchases), we have
the right to sell, run and/or serve third-party advertising on your Website. If
you are a Website Creator, you may place any advertising on your Website other than
Google AdSense. If you pay the Premium Service fees to remove our advertising, however,
you may then place Google AdSense advertising on your Website. Enerwings may establish
general policies and guidelines surrounding the running of your own ads ("Advertising
Policies"). When adopted, any such Advertising Policies will be linked to,
and incorporated by reference into, this Agreement and are subject to change from
time to time. YOU AGREE THAT Enerwings WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE FOR ANY
LOSS OR DAMAGE OF ANY SORT INCURRED AS THE RESULT OF ANY INTERACTIONS OR DEALINGS
WITH ADVERTISERS OR AS THE RESULT OF THE PRESENCE OF SUCH ADVERTISERS ON YOUR Website.
Enerwings reserves the right to include promotional links on Your Website(s) at
no cost to Enerwings, unless you pay the applicable Premium Service fees to remove
promotional links. Removal of promotional links does not include removal of required
Enerwings legal notices and links to Enerwings Terms of Service, Privacy Policy
and Guidelines or any statement indicating that Enerwings uses Enerwings ID for
authentication upon sign in by your Website Members.
18. Enerwings Platform Policies
Enerwings reserves the right to disable or deactivate Member accounts that are inactive
for more than 90 days. In the future, we may limit the number of free websites a
Website Creator can create and may impose different bandwidth, storage or other
usage restrictions than currently offered. In addition:
•You may not use profanity or others’ trademarks in the name, domain
or subdomain of your Website.
•In order to run Google AdSense advertisements and/or remove advertisements
or promotional content served by us on your Website, you must purchase a Premium
Service.

the Sign Up page of your Website.
19. Copyright Infringement

trademarks, or other proprietary information belonging to others without obtaining
the prior written consent of the owner of such proprietary rights. It is our policy
to respond to clear notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply with the
Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (“DMCA”). In addition, we will

rights (including copyrights), provided that the notice substantially complies with
