iEntertainment Network Terms of Service Agreement
iEntertainment Network ("iEN", "Helbreath USA", "Savage Eden"
or "Service") consists of the online computing, information
services, products and other content provided by iEntertainment Network
and subject to the terms and conditions of this member agreement ("Agreement").
In addition, third parties provide services and context which may be accessed
over the Service and are bound by this Agreement ("ICPS"). This
Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you as an authorized
user of iEN. By using iEN, you confirm your acceptance of, and agree to
be bound by, this agreement.
As an iEN
account holder, you are purchasing a license on a per-minute or other
limited time period basis, to access iEN services and play iEN's on-line
games. Such use of iEN software and that of its content providers does
not vest the user with any proprietary right to continued play or in accumulated
character attributes. This license is on an at-will basis, and may be
terminated by iEN at its sole discretion for violations of the terms of
continued access, including its prohibition against trading, buying or
selling accumulated character attributes or coinage for any form of real-life
compensation (i.e., things of value outside the context of the game),
and the posting of messages designed to induce others to engage in such
transactions.
These terms
are in place so that the fantasy aspect of our games remain unsoiled by
the real world. Please help us preserve the fantasy by adhering to this
policy, and by informing iEN of account holders who break, or attempt
to break, these rules. Thank you.
You ("Subscriber")
represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years of age and that
you possess the legal right and ability to enter into this agreement.
You agree to pay all charges incurred by your account in accordance
with the current rate schedule then in effect. This shall include any
purchases made through the Service. Subscriber shall pay all applicable
taxes relating to use of the Service. Subscriber shall be responsible
for all use of the Service accessed through Subscriber's password. Subscriber
shall maintain the security of your Subscriber identification, password
and other confidential information relating to your iEN account.
IEN does not offer refunds for registered accounts except in the following circumstances:
(1) if the account was opened fraudulently or (2) if the account was charged due to a billing error.
Either you or iEN may terminate your iEN membership at any time, with
or without cause, upon notice. iEN also reserves the right to terminate
or suspend your iEN membership without prior notice, but iEN will confirm
such termination or suspension by subsequent notice. Upon notice published
over the Service, iEN may modify this agreement, prices, and may discontinue
or revise any and all other aspects of the Service at its sole discretion
and without prior notice. You are responsible for reviewing information
posted by iEN that deals with pricing and services. Continued use of
iEN or non-termination of your membership after changes are posted constitutes
your acceptance of the modifications.
Payment of your iEN account balance is due monthly and must be made
by the credit card or debit card designated by you for iEN use or by
means of pre-payment by money order or check mailed to:

Each time
you use iEN you agree and reaffirm that iEN is authorized to charge your
designated card. You agree that iEN may, at its option, either accumulate
charges until the end of the billing cycle or submit one or more aggregate
charges during the billing cycle.
You must
promptly notify iEN of changes to; a) the account number or expiration
date of your designated card or b) your billing address. You must notify
iEN if your card is canceled or if you become aware of a potential breach
of security, such as the unauthorized disclosure or use of your account
number and password.
iEN will provide you with an online statement of charges on your iEN
account approximately as and when such charges are incurred and/or paid.
Unless you notify iEN of any discrepancies or irregularities within
seventy-five (75) days after they first appear in your online account
statement, they will be deemed accepted by you for all purposes, including
resolution of inquiries made by your card issuer. YOU RELEASE iEN FROM
ALL LIABILITY AND CLAIM OF LOSS RESULTING FROM ANY ERROR OR DISCREPANCY
THAT IS NOT REPORTED TO iEN WITHIN SEVENTY-FIVE (75) DAYS OF ITS PUBLICATION
DATE.
iEN may, at its sole discretion and without notice to the member, (a)
suspend the Subscriber's and its designated users' access to and use
of the Service, or (b) terminate this agreement and Subscriber's and
its designated users' access to and the use of the Service without notice
upon rejection of any card charges or if your card issuer (or its agent
or affiliate) seeks return of payments previously made to iEN when iEN
believes you are liable for the charge. If any payment due hereunder
is not made by the member within thirty (30) days after the billing
date, late charges of one and one-half percent (1 1/2%) per month shall
be due and payable with respect to such payment or, if such rate is
in excess of the allowable rate, the maximum rate allowed by law. Any
charges incurred in the collection of delinquent accounts shall be passed
