Solución En Línea E.U.. The term "account" refers to the access,
content, and services that SEL provides to its users.
1.02 By using the SEL Web Site, Hosting
Services, any Support Services, any SEL software, or any other products
or services of SEL, you agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.
SEL reserves the right to change, amend and/or otherwise alter the
SEL Services with equivalent or otherwise equal services without prior
notice to you.
1.03 The terms contained herein supersede and
replace any other agreement or negotiation between you and SEL, whether
oral, written or otherwise, including any statements made to you by any
representative of SEL at any time. Any amendments, changes,
additions, deletions or other modifications of this Agreement are void unless
specifically expressed in writing and agreed to by SEL.
1.04 SEL reserves the right to cancel any
account, including files and content, for any reason, or no reason at all, at
any time. You agree to maintain back-up files of all information you post on

2.01 At your request, SEL may acquire a Second-Level
Domain Name
("Domain Name"), on your behalf and in your name, assuming that the
Domain Name you request is available for registration. SEL will not own
or otherwise legally control any Domain Name registered on your behalf under
this Section. SEL provides this service as a convenience to you only and
you hereby waive any and all claims which you may have, or which may later
arise, against SEL for any and all damages, losses, claims or expenses
arising or related to the acquisition, registration and/or use of the Domain
Name. Any costs incurred by SEL to obtain and/or maintain the Domain Name
on your behalf shall be charged to you by SEL at an amount determined by
SEL, at their sole discretion.
2.02 Before using a website under a domain name, SEL may list
advertisements on the website for SEL Services or for the products and
services offered by business partners of SEL or by other third parties.
2.03 Domain Names may be registered by SEL on your behalf
through a variety of Domain Name Registration Services (each a "Registrar").
Each Registrar has its own terms and conditions concerning the registration and
maintenance of domain names and you agree to be bound thereby. In particular,
registration of Domain Names binds you to the terms of the Uniform Domain Name
Dispute Resolution Policy ("UDRP"), which governs the resolution of most
disputes regarding the registration of Domain Names.
2.04 You warrant to SEL that any Domain Name you may seek to
register through SEL does not violate the rights of any third party, in
particular trademark rights, and that you have taken reasonable steps,
including but not limited to searches of the applicable state and federal
trademark registries, to assure that this is the case. You agree to indemnify
and hold harmless SEL, its officers, directors, employees and agents,
with respect to any and all damages, losses, claims or expenses incurred with
respect to or arising out of claims of third parties concerning your use of any
such Domain Name on the Internet.
2.05 You agree to inform SEL of any proceeding instituted by
any party challenging your rights to use any Domain Name hosted on SEL
servers, including but not limited to disputes under the Uniform Domain Name
Dispute Resolution Policy ("UDRP"). Should you for any reason lose your right
to use a Domain Name hosted on the SEL Servers, through expiration of the
registration of the Domain Name, judicial decree, and administrative decision
under the UDRP or otherwise, you agree to immediately inform SEL of such
loss of rights. To the extent your loss of rights to a Domain Name is
accompanied by any judicial decree or administrative decision granting rights
to the Domain Name to a third party, you agree to immediately inform SEL
in writing of the identity of the party to whom such rights are to be
transferred, as well as of any other information regarding the nature and scope
of the decision of the judicial body or administrative panel that rendered the
decision.
2.06 You agree and understand that SEL may, should your
rights to a Domain Name be challenged in any way, suspend the SEL
Services associated with such Domain Name and take any other steps required
under any such proceeding, including but not limited to actions required under

such data available to you for storage elsewhere.
