This document sets out the Terms and Conditions of your use of the Broadband services provided by CLI SECURE Telecom (“CLI SECURE”, “We”, “Us”, “Our”) and comprises the entire agreement for your use of our Broadband services (“the Agreement”). Any changes or additions to these Terms and Conditions, the Broadband Services, or associated computer security or backup services and software must be agreed to in writing by CLI SECURE. All other terms, express or implied by statute or otherwise, are excluded to the fullest extent permitted by law. These Broadband Terms and Conditions apply in conjunction with the Terms and Conditions of your Telephony Terms and Conditions. On cessation of the Telephony Agreement in accordance with paragraphs 4a; 4b; 4c and 4d of said agreement, paragraphs 5a; 5b and section 6 of the Terms and Conditions of the said agreement will continue to apply to this Agreement.

 1. Commencement and Duration of this Agreement
1.1 This Agreement commences on the date you accept these Terms and Conditions by signing the CLI SECURE Broadband application form, applying on-line, or via the telephone application process (the “Commencement Date”) and will continue for 12 months or the contracted length of time applicable for the Broadband tariff you have taken. These Terms and Conditions remain indefinitely thereafter unless terminated earlier by either party in accordance with Clause 12 of this Agreement.

2. Commencement and Duration of this Agreement
2.1 We will provide the Broadband services and, if purchased, computer security or backup services and email (collectively known as the “Broadband Services”) to you with reasonable skill and care and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Whilst we will use our reasonable endeavours to begin providing these Broadband Services by any date provisionally agreed with you, we have no liability for any failure to meet any date. We can only provide services in areas of the United Kingdom in which we are technically able to offer Broadband services from time to time.

2.2 In order to use the Broadband Services, you need an existing BT analogue telephone line and a personal computer of a minimum specification as per Clause 4. You must also ensure that compatible cables and extension leads are used to and from your telephone socket, modem and PC in order to use the service. You acknowledge that we are dependent upon certain third parties to install and provide the Broadband Services to you. You also acknowledge that there may be technical limits that prevent us from delivering an operational service to you. We will endeavour to provide the Broadband Services to you at the access rate you choose but, due to congestion within the network, the ability of your BT line to carry data services, distance from the exchange; the speed of service may be reduced at times.

2.3 You must cancel any other broadband service supplied by another company through the BT telephone landline that you wish to use to receive our broadband service and your BT telephone landline at your location must be clear of your former supplier’s broadband service. Alternatively, you must provide us with a valid migration code to transfer the broadband service from your current supplier. If you have purchased a computer security service, you must uninstall any other computer security services from your computer.

2.4 We do not undertake to provide a fault free service. If, however, a fault occurs, you should report the fault by telephone, electronic mail or in writing to the Support Service. We will use our best endeavours to correct any defect or fault in the services provided to you as soon as possible. We will let you know as soon as reasonably practicable of any periods of downtime of the Support Service.

2.5 CLI SECURE will not be responsible for any Faults arising from customer’s premises equipment. A £165 call out charge will be applied to engineering visits where the fault is found to be with your equipment or where an engineer attends and find no fault.

2.6 Modem Support: Modems purchased directly from CLI SECURE will receive technical support within their warranty period. Technical support for modems acquired from any other source is therefore the responsibility solely of the modem manufacturer, or will be charged if support is received by CLI SECURE.

2.7 We may suspend the Broadband Services including during scheduled periods of downtime where necessary for operational reasons such as repair, maintenance or improvement of the Broadband Services or because of an emergency. CLI SECURE will restore the Broadband Services as soon as it reasonably can after suspension.

2.8 We may, for operational or other reasons, change any codes or the numbers allocated to you or the specification of the Broadband Services but any such changes will not materially affect the Broadband Services.

2.9 We reserve the right to vary the Content (as defined in clause 5.2 below) from time to time in our sole discretion and do not guarantee or warrant that any particular item or items of Content will be available at any given time or at the commencement of the Broadband Services.

2.10 We may immediately suspend your access to the Broadband Services in the event that you do not pay an invoice in accordance with Clause 3.
