This Agreement describes the terms and conditions that apply to Your use of the Platform and the products and services available through the Platform (individually and collectively, the “Services”).
Your use of the Platform and Your electronic acceptance of this Agreement indicates that You have read, understood, acknowledged, and agreed to be bound by this Agreement, along with the following policies and the applicable product agreements, which are incorporated herein by references. This applies whether You are just browsing the Platform or are purchasing Services. All references in this Agreement to the “Lease”, “Lessee”, and “IP Numbers” shall be deemed to refer to the definitions of those terms set forth in the LeaseIPx Platform Terms of Services.
We, Us, and Our refer to LeaseIPx. Anyone who accepts this Agreement, has access to Your account, or utilises the Services is referred to as “You,” “Your,” “User,” or “Customer.”
No third party shall have any rights or benefits under this Agreement.
LeaseIPx reserves the right to make any changes or modifications to this Agreement and any rules or agreements which are incorporated herein at any time, and such changes or modifications shall be effective immediately upon posting to this Platform, in LeaseIPx’s sole and absolute discretion. At least 30 (thirty) days before any revisions to this Agreement, any policy, or any other agreement are set to go into effect, LeaseIPx will notify you of the changes (Effective date). Email, the Account, or any other method permitted by the Agreement may be used to provide notice of any such modifications. You may give LeaseIPx early notice that You desire to terminate this Agreement, any policy, or any other agreement at any time within the advance notice period if You do not agree with the proposed updated version of this Agreement, any policy, or any other agreement. We will stop delivering the Services under the terminated Agreement, policy, or other agreement as of the Effective date of the termination. If You do not contact Us to advise Us of Your objections to the Changes during the Notice Period, then You will be deemed to have accepted the Changes, and they will become effective on the Effective Date.
If you continue to use the Platform or the Services after those changes or modifications have been implemented, you will be deemed to have accepted the updated terms of this Agreement. Do not use (or continue to use) this Platform or Services if You do not agree to be bound by this Agreement as last revised. Additionally, LeaseIPx may occasionally notify You through email or through the Account of updates or amendments to this Agreement.
You must keep the contact details associated with Your account (“Account”) (including postal and telephonic ones) accurate at all times. You agree that LeaseIPx will have no responsibility or liability for Your failure to receive a notification if that failure is attributable, in whole or in part, to inaccurate information given by You.

Your use of the Services constitutes an agreement to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless LeaseIPx and its officers, directors, employees, agents, and third party providers of the Services from and against any and all claims, demands, costs, expenses, losses, liabilities, and damages of every kind and nature (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) imposed upon or incurred by LeaseIPx directly or indirectly as a result of your use of the Services:

Your participation in and use of this Platform and any associated Services;
Infringement by you of any term, condition, or provision of this Agreement or any policy or agreement included herein; and/or
Your infringement upon the rights of others, especially those pertaining to their intellectual property or other forms of private interest. This section’s indemnification obligations shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement and Your use of this Platform and the Services available on this Platform.

G. Suspension and termination

Suspension

In the event of a willful or negligent breach of the Agreement by the User, LeaseIPx may suspend or cancel the Services.
LeaseIPx may choose not to notify the User before suspending service. LeaseIPx may, however, attempt to contact the User before suspending access in an effort to halt and prevent any additional inappropriate activities from the User or third parties using the User’s resources.
After getting a notification from LeaseIPx, the User is expected to act promptly. LeaseIPx may set a deadline by which the User must bring themselves back into compliance with this Agreement or any other Agreement, Policy, or Annex that is incorporated by reference.

Termination

Either LeaseIPx or the User may terminate service at any time in accordance with the terms outlined in the LeaseIPx Platform Terms of Service. LeaseIPx, however, is unable to terminate the Service on the customer’s behalf.
LeaseIPx reserves the right to immediately cancel Service, with or without prior notice, in circumstances where the Service was used maliciously to cause damage to any property in any way, or when payment is past due. The User’s right to a refund is revoked if he or she acts willfully to cause any kind of property harm.
If a User commits a violation of the Acceptable Use Policy or engages in any other illegal activity, the Services will be promptly cancelled.
Lessee is solely responsible for stopping the announcement of the IP Numbers following the termination or suspension of Services; therefore, Lessee will be held responsible for these actions, which will be deemed as hijacking, if Lessee continues to announce IP Numbers following the termination or suspension of Services. In the event of such a violation, LeaseIPx may decide to (a) prevent Lessee from receiving any further IP reassignments; (b) charge an abuse management fee; or (c) require User to compensate the IP Holder for the IP resources that were inappropriately used.

I. Notice

Chargebacks, reversals and retrievals

It is not permissible to issue a refund through a chargeback.
Rather than issuing a chargeback or opening a transaction dispute, refunds must be obtained in accordance with the refund terms.
Any and all disputes and/or chargebacks will be treated as potential payment fraud and will be thoroughly investigated.
In order to contest the chargeback or other payment issue, LeaseIPx will use any and all information available, including the User’s Account profile, login history data, and communications between the two parties.
LeaseIPx reserves the right, without prior warning, to immediately suspend any and all Services associated with a User’s Account if we receive a chargeback or payment dispute from a Credit Card company, bank, PayPal, or any other payment gateway.
The User agrees to pay an administration fee in the amount of USD 20 for any chargeback or other recovery of a transaction that occurs.
The User must ensure that all chargebacks, reversals, and/or retrievals are withdrawn in order for the Services, which were suspended as a result of these actions, to be restored. In addition, the User is responsible for making up for any financial disparity brought on by chargebacks, reversals, and/or retrievals before the Services are reinstated.

Q. Titles and headings; Independent covenants; Severability

Titles and headers used in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not be used in construing or interpreting the parties’ agreement unless expressly provided otherwise herein.

B. Description of services

LeaseIPx enables IP HOLDERS to allocate IP Addresses on behalf of IP LESSEES for a predetermined fee.

Each and every one of the aforementioned services is included in every single one of our transactions, and we do all in our power to make the process as straightforward and quick as possible. LeaseIPx has no say in the amount an IP HOLDER charges an IP LESSEE to lease an IP Address from them.

2.3. IP HOLDER further represents and warrants that IP HOLDER is, and will continue to be, in compliance with the respective member policies of the RIRs throughout the term of this Lease, and that the IP Numbers were obtained in compliance with the member policies of the RIRs and all applicable laws and regulations.

We reserve the right to terminate any account that has been either temporarily or permanently inactive or has not been confirmed. Furthermore, we hold the exclusive authority to deny access to, alter, or discontinue PLATFORM to anybody at any time for any reason.

D. Policy enforcement

When deciding how to handle a situation involving an IP HOLDER or an IP LESSEE, We may take into account the IP LESSEE’s prior performance and the unique circumstances at hand. In an effort to strike a balance between the interests of IP HOLDERs and IP LESSEES, we may opt to be less strict in our policy enforcement.

E. Payouts and commissions; Refunds

The IP LESSEE agrees to pay all charges and fees included in the Universal Terms of Services Agreement for the Lease received through the PLATFORM.
Unless IP Numbers are not functioning properly within 48 hours of the Reassignment Initiation date due to the IP HOLDER’s failure to execute his duties and tasks as required by this Agreement, there will be no return of any kind for any reason. You will not receive a refund for the Reassignment Initiation Fee after 48 hours have passed from the day it was paid, even if Your Lease is suspended, cancelled, or transferred before the end of the Lease term. There will be no refunds for unused credit.
LeaseIPx is solely responsible for initiating the generation of Validation objects for IP Number use, as specified by IP LESSEE on the Reassignment Initiation date.
If the Reassignment Initiation Date is before the Commencement Date, all refunds due will be prorated back to that date.
LeaseIPx has exclusive discretion regarding any refund requests.
Listing conditions established by the IP HOLDER are used to determine the commission.
Each IP Number Lease Payment is due on or before the 14th of the month following the calendar month for which the IP Numbers were leased. Payments begin accruing on the date of Lease Commencement.
Credit balances, PayPal accounts, or bank transfers can all be used to make payouts. With PayPal, it’s $100, and with a bank transfer, it’s $300. Bank withdrawals cost $25, whereas PayPal withdrawals cost nothing. If you want to get at least $50 out of your account before we close it, you’ll need to do it while it’s at least that much.
IP HOLDER is solely responsible for all information included in the Lease Form, including but not limited to the IP Numbers listed.
All payments due from LeaseIPx to IP HOLDER during the length of this Agreement shall be billed directly by LeaseIPx, and IP HOLDER hereby authorises and directs LeaseIPx to send all such bills to IP HOLDER. If IP HOLDER chooses to be self-billed, LeaseIPx will complete the invoice in full, including IP HOLDER’s name, address, and VAT (if applicable) registration number. In the event that self-billed invoices are to be sent by a third party, LeaseIPx will notify the IP HOLDER.
During the length of the agreement between IP HOLDER and LeaseIPx, IP HOLDER undertakes to pay bills sent to them by the self-biller. During the term of these TOS, IP HOLDER will not issue any invoices for the transactions that are subject to these TOS. If (i) IP HOLDER’s VAT registration number changes, (ii) IP HOLDER ceases to be VAT registered, or (iii) IP HOLDER sells all or a portion of its business, IP HOLDER must immediately notify LeaseIPx. IP HOLDER verifies that it satisfies the demands of the VAT authorities in its country of residence.

F. Listing conditions

When listing IP Numbers for the Lease on PLATFORM, You agree to comply with LeaseIPx’s policy and that:

You are entirely liable for the correctness and completeness of the IP Addresses listed;
Unless otherwise requested by LeaseIPx, you will maintain all IP Validation Objects for the duration of the Initial Period;
During the term of the Lease, the removal of the Validation Objects will be viewed as a termination of the Lease for which no 3-month notice was given;
You undertake to provide LeaseIPx with complete and accurate contact information at all times (including invoicing information) during the Lease term that clearly identifies You as the IP HOLDER;
Upon the LeaseIPx team’s request, you must update your Whois/Lease information in the RIRs, PLATFORM to reflect the most up-to-date Listing/Lease details;
IP LESSEE may not be able to access your listing for a few hours (or up to 48 hours in some circumstances). LeaseIPx cannot promise accurate listing durations;
LeaseIPx reserves the right to alter, conceal, or remove any IP address that is blacklisted or blocked by any of the major top-level domains due to improper use;
We reserve the right to make changes to the information included in IP Address records, which may include the addition, deletion, or alteration of previously published content..

G. Ordering conditions

When ordering IP Numbers on PLATFORM, You agree that:

Before entering into Lease, you are responsible for reviewing all relevant information, including but not limited to the nettype (status) of the IP Numbers with the RIRs;
You commit to maintain all required IP Validation Objects for the duration of the Lease unless otherwise allowed by LeaseIPx;
You agree to provide LeaseIPx with current, complete, and accurate contact information at all times during the Lease, and you are responsible for providing LeaseIPx with this information in order to be identified as the IP LESSEE.
When You make the decision to Lease the IP Numbers or when Your bid for IP Numbers is accepted, You are entering into a legally binding contract to lease those IP Numbers;
The IP HOLDER retains all legal rights and title to the IP NUMBERS leased to the IP LESSEE.
IP LeaseIPx has the right to manage LESSEE’s IP Numbers information (inetnum, domain, route, and other objects that can be created and/or managed in RIRs);
If IP LESSEE continues to use the IP Numbers after the end of the Lease period, he will be charged a penalty cost equal to the IP Numbers’ per-day rate times the number of days of continued use.

H. Amendments and termination

On the Order Form’s specified Start Date, the Lease Term will officially begin. If the Lease is renewed, it will remain in effect until the Expiration Date unless cancelled earlier.
Prior to the start of the Lease period, the IP HOLDER may change, modify, replace, or cancel the IP Numbers or any information submitted at registration to the PLATFORM.
If an IP HOLDER needs to make changes after the Effective Date, they must get in touch with the LeaseIPx Help Desk.
The IP HOLDER will have the right to cancel the Lease with three months’ notice, however there will be cancellation fees if the Lease is terminated before its expiration date. LeaseIPx may assess a cancellation fee that is equal to LeaseIPx’s commission fee (determined by the size of the current Lease) times the number of months remaining in the Initial Term times the number of active Leases. Lease termination payments will no longer be determined.
If IP HOLDER terminates an active Lease with less than three months’ notice, IP HOLDER will be charged a cancellation fee equal to the total number of active Leases interrupted for the previous 12 months, plus the penalty fee for one active Lease interrupted for one month, which will be based on the price of IP Numbers, as determined by IP HOLDER.
IP LESSOR acknowledges and accepts that LeaseIPx may, with 14 days’ notice, substitute an equivalent allocation of leased IP Numbers. LeaseIPx will use email to deliver written notice.
IP LESSEE may terminate the Lease, but payment for the remainder of the billing cycle is still due.
Without limiting any rights or remedies that have already accrued under this Lease, it may be terminated immediately by any party upon written notice to the other party if either party::

8.1. when one of the parties to this Lease commits a serious breach of its terms;
8.2. If the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) or any RIR requests that this Lease be ended;
8.3. In the event that the IP LESSEE violates any policy of the PLATFORM, LeaseIPx reserves the right to terminate the services. LeaseIPx maintains the right to terminate service at any time.
