These Terms and Conditions of Service (hereinafter “Terms and Conditions“) are applicable to your access to the VOX Web Site, and to your use of the services offered by VOX. By using any of the services or products provided or serviced by VOX, either directly or through a reseller, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by our Terms and Conditions.
The Terms and Conditions were last modified on September 24, 2024.
1. Terms and Conditions
You must read and accept the present Terms and Conditions, Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy before using the VOX Web Site or any VOX services. By accessing and continuing to use VOX services, you confirm your agreement to be subject to the Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree to these Terms and Conditions, please do not access any of VOX services or use VOX Web Site.
VOX may need to modify these Terms and Conditions occasionally to adapt to changing technologies, laws and/or regulations. VOX may provide the Client with a prior written notice if the changes significantly impact the Client’s services, but VOX will do this solely at its discretion and is in no way obligated to provide notice. Any changes to the Terms and Conditions shall enter into force within thirty (30) days of their publication on the VOX Web Site.
2. Creation, Responsibility, Modification, and Cancellation of Client Accounts for website development and hosting services.
2.1. Creation of Client Accounts
When you sign the service agreement, the VOX administrative team registers you as a client on various platforms (billing, CRM, project management). Once the website development phase starts, a hosting account is created on our servers in Canada, where the website is installed. When the website is completed, and training is provided to the website administrators, administrator accounts are also created so that you or your employees can take control of the website and modify its content. These accounts are created at the website CMS (content management system) level.
2.2. Accurate Information
You agree to keep your contact information up to date with us and to notify us within a maximum of 10 days when your information changes (moving, email address change, etc.).
You agree that VOX may use and rely on the information you provide to deliver its services in accordance with the Privacy Policy. Should you provide any inaccurate, misleading or incomplete information, or if VOX has reasonable grounds to suspect that your information is inaccurate, misleading or incomplete, VOX has the right, in its sole discretion, to suspend or terminate its services and/or close your account.
2.3. Maintenance and Security of the Client's websites
You agree to use your website only for legal purposes and accept full responsibility for the content and data on your website.
You accept full responsibility for maintaining the confidentiality of the login information, username, and password to access your website's content manager. You accept full responsibility for any activity by the administrators of your site. You agree to notify VOX immediately of any unauthorized use of your website or any suspicious activity. You acknowledge that VOX is not liable for any losses you might experience due to an administrator user's actions on your site, regardless of your awareness of such activities. You also agree that you could be held liable for losses incurred by VOX or another party due to someone else using your administrator access. VOX encourages you to keep your website or CMS login information in a secure place and to take precautions to prevent others from accessing and/or using this information. Furthermore, VOX encourages you not to share login information with others; each user should have their own login access.
2.4. Content responsability
You agree that you are solely responsible for the content stored on and served on your websites. You further agree that you are responsible for all activity of your website’s administrator account, whether initiated by you, by others on your behalf, or by any other means. VOX disclaims liability for any activity in your website and CMS, whether authorized by you or not.
2.5. Account Suspension and Cancellation
VOX can suspend or terminate without prior notice any website that do not comply with these Terms and Services to maintain a safe and secure environment for our clients.
VOX will attempt to notify you if there are any suspensions or cancellations. In some circumstances, VOX may suspend a website without warning to avoid severe harm or service degradation.
You may cancel your website’s hosting account and its automatic renewal by requesting cancellation at least 15 days before your service’s expiry date. The cancellation request must include all the details to allow a VOX employee to properly identify the account, including the full name of your company and the complete URL of your website. The request should also be made by an authorized contact listed in your account.
3. Privacy Policy
VOX is committed to your privacy, and does not sell, trade or give out your personal information unless required as part of your service contract or by law. For our complete privacy policy:

4. Search Engine Listing
VOX is not directly associated with any search engines and is not responsible for the ranking of your website in search results. However, VOX does offer certain Search Engine Optimization services that may assist you in obtaining favorable search engine rankings with specific search engines. VOX cannot guarantee specific results beyond what is described or guaranteed on the VOX Website or in your service agreement.
5. CMS updates and security
The client's hosting packages include basic updates for the JOOMLA content management system, but do not include major upgrades such as upgrading from one version to another (for example, from version 4.0 to 5.0). Major upgrades will be carried out under a different contract and with the client's agreement. The client will be notified when a major upgrade is needed on their website, and an estimated cost quote will be sent for approval before starting the work. When a new version of the CMS is available, VOX will take the necessary steps to notify the client and plan the upgrade promptly.
Our servers are specifically configured to provide enhanced security for your website, including multiple layers of protection against cyberattacks at the CMS level and the server level with ModSecurity, Imunify and CloudLinux.
6. Backups
Our hosting service includes daily backups available for the previous 10 business days and weekly backups for the last 12 weeks.
To minimize the impact on site performance, backups are conducted at night when there is low traffic on the server. The client can request a backup copy at any time. Only individuals identified in the account will be authorized to receive such documents.
7. Technical support
Our technical support team is available in English and in French via phone, video call, or email during regular business hours from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Atlantic Time. The team will also take emergency requests by email outside working hours and respond within a reasonable time frame, depending on the level of emergency.
8. Service Renewals and Cancellations
Under the service agreement for website development, the hosting service is automatically renewed each year. Renewal invoices for web hosting services are automatically generated by VOX at least 15 days before the service expiration date. A copy will be emailed to the address on file when we generate a new invoice.
All unpaid services after the due date may be suspended and permanently terminated at VOX's sole discretion. Reactivation fees may apply if you wish to reactivate your services after suspension.
You must maintain a valid email address on file with us to receive important information about your hosting account, including invoices and notices.
To cancel the web hosting service, the client must notify us by email one month before the renewal date to avoid cancellation fees.
9. Payments
VOX accepts payments by: credit card (via Stripe), check, Interac e-transfer, and bank transfers.
All payments must be made in Canadian dollars unless stated otherwise. The payment terms are specified in the service agreement signed by the client. Any overdue invoice will carry an interest of 2%, compounded monthly (corresponding to a yearly interest rate of 26.86%). Chargebacks or bounced checks due to insufficient funds will incur additional fees of C$50.00, plus taxes.
10. Force Majeure
VOX will make every effort to keep its website and services operational. However, certain technical difficulties and other factors outside of its control may sometimes result in temporary service interruptions. You agree not to hold VOX liable for any of the consequences of such interruptions.
