Terms of Service

Ole Brook Web Services, LLC (“OBWS,” “we,” “us”) provides managed infrastructure, design, and security services. By using our websites or services you agree to the terms below.

1. Eligibility and acceptable use

  • You may use Ole Brook Web Services for lawful purposes only. You must not use the service to violate any applicable law, harm others, or attempt to bypass our filtering.
  • We do not guarantee compatibility with every device or network. You are responsible for configuring your hardware and software correctly.

2. Service scope

Ole Brook Web Services supports paid engagements and select pro bono community projects. If you represent a for-profit business, commercial enterprise, or industry use case, please contact us at sales@olebrookwebservices.com so we can provide a formal quote and ensure the deployment meets your needs.

3. Websites, hosting, and technical services

  • All ongoing hosting we provide for client websites is bundled with an active care plan; we do not offer standalone hosting without a maintenance plan.
  • Essential Care applies to static sites deployed on our shared hosting cluster. Dynamic or CMS-based hosting (for example, WordPress or custom applications) requires separate arrangements at higher monthly rates.
  • Care plans are billed month-to-month and may be updated over time to reflect infrastructure and vendor costs. Any changes for existing clients will be communicated in advance.

4. Domain registration and transfers

  • For clients on an active care plan, we may register or manage domain names on your behalf. Subject to applicable registry rules and your payment of all amounts due, you retain the benefit of those registrations and may request a transfer to another registrar or provider.
  • You are responsible for all third-party costs associated with any transfer, including transfer and renewal fees charged by the gaining registrar or registry.
  • We may charge a reasonable administrative fee for assisting with a transfer, which will be disclosed to you in advance.
  • We will not unreasonably withhold, condition, or delay a transfer request, provided your account is in good standing and the domain is eligible for transfer under applicable rules.
  • After the domain is transferred away, we are not responsible for DNS configuration, website availability, or email routing at the new provider.

5. Service availability

Ole Brook Web Services is provided on a best-effort basis. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue services at any time without notice, and outages or changes may occur. Paid projects and care plans follow the scope and billing terms provided to you in writing.

6. Gifts and donations

Voluntary gifts help cover hosting and development costs, but they do not create a paid subscription, priority support, or uptime guarantee. We encourage supporters to give only as the Lord leads through prayer and discernment. Gifts are processed through Stripe and are subject to Stripe’s Services Agreement and Privacy Policy.

7. No warranties; limitation of liability

OLE BROOK WEB SERVICES IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR SECURE.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM WILL NOT EXCEED $10 USD.

8. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access at any time if we believe you are abusing the service or violating these terms. You may stop using Ole Brook Web Services at any time by changing your DNS or discontinuing the relevant service.

9. Privacy

Our handling of DNS data and operational logs is described in the Privacy Policy. By using Ole Brook Web Services you consent to that policy.

10. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Mississippi, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

11. Changes to these terms

We may modify these terms at any time without notice. It is your responsibility to review them periodically. Your continued use of Ole Brook Web Services after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
