Although AromaWeb has a magnificent record of uptime, there may
be periods where AromaWeb may not be available due to server maintenance,
server upgrades, network problems with the Internet in general,
etc. It is unfortunate but normal that Web sites do go down from
time to time or are inaccessible for a variety of reasons. AromaWeb
has included these occurrences in the pricing model for banner advertisements.
As such, AromaWeb cannot offer refunds or discounts due to such
downtimes. In the unlikely event that AromaWeb is down for a longer-than-reasonable
period of time, AromaWeb will extend your advertising term accordingly.
This will be handled on a case-by-case basis.
Even if your payment is received without being
accompanied by the banner advertisement order confirmation form,
or your signature on the form is missing, your payment indicates
your full agreement to all the policies above and any stated within
e-mail messages. Receipt of your payment also indicates your full
agreement to the term(s) and other details set forth on this page,
