Using BusinessInternet.com

Subject to this agreement, you have access to use BusinessInternet.com for educational and informational use, such as to search and obtain information regarding broadband availability at certain address locations. BusinessInternet.com and Centerfield BBN do not provide internet service.

Centerfield BBN may modify, change, or upgrade the functionality or appearance of BusinessInternet.com, including removal of functionality or content, at any time.

This site contains information regarding the services of third party providers. Centerfield BBN may be compensated by some of the third party providers for listing the information.

This site may link to other websites. Links are not an endorsement of the products or services available at the other websites. Centerfield BBN has no responsibility or control of content on the linked websites.

This site is not providing financial, legal, business, technical, or other professional advice.

Centerfield BBN makes every commercially reasonable attempt to manually gather relevant information helpful towards making a purchase of broadband internet and other services. However, because Centerfield BBN does not control the information, and internet providers may change their availability, speed, services, features, data centers, and pricing structures at any time, Centerfield BBN cannot and will not be held responsible for any discrepancies in availability, pricing, or other information between what is stated on BusinessInternet.com and anywhere else where you find information regarding broadband internet service, including the website of the internet providers themselves. Always verify plans, pricing, contact details, availability, speed, and other relevant information with the internet provider before starting service.

You agree to promptly notify Centerfield BBN if your BusinessInternet.com account has been subject to a security breach, including disclosure of your username or password.

Types of Accounts

As long as you comply with the other Terms of the Agreement, you may submit three (3) broadband address searches per Calendar Day (Eastern Time), for a maximum of twenty (20) searches per Calendar Month, via BusinessInternet.com, without being a registered User. If you would like to submit more searches per day/month, you must become a registered User.

Subject to the Terms of this Agreement, a registered Business/Enterprise User will receive 100 Credits for broadband address searches on BusinessInternet.com, to use at the User’s discretion. If you need additional Credits, please contact Centerfield BBN via our contact form.

From time to time, Centerfield BBN may change, modify, or upgrade the functionality or appearance of BusinessInternet.com, which may include the removal of functionality, content, features, or amounts of credits per each level of User account.

Payments

Payments may be paid via credit card via Stripe. Overdue amounts, including bounced payments or chargebacks, will be assessed a late payment charge at a monthly rate of 1.5% or the maximum provided by law, whichever is less. Cancellations and unused Credits are not subject to refund; if you cancel your account, your remaining credits are lost. Complementary Credits have no monetary or cash value and are never subject to refund. Credits automatically expire one year from purchase. Centerfield BBN shall have the right to recover expenses including collection costs and reasonable attorney's fees incurred in collecting overdue amounts.

Termination

Centerfield BBN reserves the right to terminate this Agreement and User's rights by giving User email notice of termination, at Centerfield BBN’s sole discretion. The provisions of any Disclaimer and the Limitation of Liability shall survive any termination of this Agreement.
