Terms of Service for SSL Certificates

Last updated 11th March, 2021

BY USING THIS SITE, THE SERVICES AVAILABLE AT THIS SITE, AND ANY SERVICE, SOFTWARE, APPLICATION, OR PROGRAM CREATED BY IWEBZ RETAIL PRIVATE LIMITED OPC (“IWEBZ”), YOU AGREE TO THE FOLLOWING TERMS AND CONDITIONS (THE “AGREEMENT”) GOVERNING YOUR USE OF SSL CERTIFICATES PURCHASED VIA IWEBZ, OTHER ONLINE AND OFFLINE COMPONENTS (COLLECTIVELY, THE “SERVICE”). IF YOU ARE ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT ON BEHALF OF A COMPANY OR OTHER LEGAL ENTITY, YOU REPRESENT THAT YOU HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO BIND SUCH ENTITY TO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, IN WHICH CASE THE TERMS “USER”, “YOU” OR “YOUR” SHALL REFER TO SUCH ENTITY. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE SUCH AUTHORITY, OR IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, YOU MUST NOT AND MAY NOT USE THE SERVICE.

 

Introduction

SSL, which stands for Secure Sockets Layer, is a cyber-security protocol that digitally encrypts information sent from a browser to a server. SSL certificates are used to protect sensitive information like credit card numbers, usernames, passwords, email addresses, and more. A website with an SSL certificate is identified using a number of trust indicators, like “https://” and the padlock icon in the browser bar, a site seal from a reputable Certificate Authority (CA), and a green bar that wraps around the URL on more premium certificates.

The CA is the company that actually issues the SSL certificates. Symantec, Thawte, GeoTrust, RapidSSL, Certum, and Comodo are all CAs, for example. We are a reseller of these CAs, meaning that we are able to offer the exact same certificate that you would get from buying direct, but at much lower prices. Because we buy in bulk from these CAs, we are able to offer them at the significant discounts that you see. For the purpose of this Terms of Service document from iWebz to you the User, the CA will be considered a third-party.

The SSL Certificate issuing CA provides the User with certificate files of fixed validity that enables encrypted data transfer, with an implied U.S. dollar-based warranty. This warranty provided by the CA in no way involves iWebz.

Steps to purchase SSL Certificates via getSSL by iWebz℠ will be displayed & updated at the link below:

In case you are not satisfied with the SSL certificate received from the CA, you can request iWebz for clarifications, or for order cancellation. Refunds require you to first cancel your order with iWebz within 7 days of making payment and are subject to the Cancellation & Refunds policy mentioned below in the Payment section.

All clarifications, order cancellations, and refund requests must be made via the Contact Support link available from the Order Details page. The link to the Order Details page will be automatically sent to you when you have paid for the order.

iWebz reserves the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason whatsoever.

You should be over 18 years of age to use this service.

 

Service Definition

iWebz is a retail provider of Web Infrastructure services. iWebz offers the Service via prepaid (paid) subscription plans. The role of iWebz is as an intermediary only to enable the User to buy/renew SSL certificates at low prices.

SSL certificates offered via iWebz are validity-based data security products sold as prepaid certificate subscriptions. iWebz, as an intermediary, offers SSL certificates with validity & features as provided by the respective CA at the time of purchase. Once subscribed, by prepaying for the certificate, the subscription cannot be upgraded or downgraded to another certificate product.

Purchase of SSL certificates via iWebz (the “Service”) assumes based on User certification that the User is the owner of the root domain name (not just a sub-domain) and that the domain name is Active. It is further assumed that the User has background knowledge of SSL certificates & related activities, and so the Service does NOT include the following:

  • Verifying the ownership of the domain name.
  • Installation of the SSL certificate on behalf of the User.
  • Support / Hand-holding to educate & enable SSL certificate installation by the User.

The Service is provided with all options and documentation specified in the English language only. We are not liable for any Service commitments inferred from website content translated into any other language.

 

Eligibility to use

Use of the Service is available only to persons who can legally enter into contracts under applicable laws. Persons who are “incompetent to contract”, within the meaning of the Indian Contract Act, 1872 including un-discharged insolvents etc. are not eligible to use the Service. The Service reserves the right to terminate your access to the Site if it discovers that you are under the age of 18 years or suffer from any other disability, as recognized under the Indian Contract Act, 1872.

 

Incorrect Client Information

If you have entered incomplete or incorrect information, and you have requested a change, iWebz may contact you in an effort to help you successfully update or correct the information.

The Fees applicable for the Service are available at getSSL.in and as published within the Service. iWebz reserves the right to change the Fees or applicable charges and to institute new charges at any time without notice. Your account will not be automatically invoiced Fees on the expiration of the previous billing period/ cycle.

 

Advance Payment Account / Prepaid Wallet

iWebz may offer an advance payment / prepaid wallet method to pay for website orders with the following terms:

  • If you maintain a credit balance, and you choose to pay via the wallet balance, we may deduct from the credit balance when you purchase products or services from us.
  • Please ensure you have a sufficient credit balance before a subscription plan renewal is due, or before you try to place an order using your wallet. If the credit balance is insufficient for processing the order the order may not be processed and your product or service may stop working at the end of its validity or billing period.
  • You may only add funds to this account/wallet. No withdrawals are permitted from this account/wallet.
  • Any eligible refunds for payments made via the advance payment / prepaid wallet balance will be credited back to the wallet balance, and not to the funding source of the prepaid wallet.
  • As part of this payment method, iWebz may offer a promotional offer applicable to the amount you credit to your account/wallet. Any such promotional offer may be introduced or withdrawn at any time at the discretion of iWebz.
  • If you maintain a credit balance, you are not entitled to receive any interest on the credit balance.
  • Your wallet balance can only be used to pay for orders on this website.

 

Cancellations and Refunds

It is possible that after ordering an SSL Certificate product, your certificate generation request may, in very rare cases, get rejected by the Certifying Authority (CA). As the decision of the CA is final, we will initiate order cancellation and provide you with 100% of the amount billed inclusive of taxes (if any) for the order.

Alternately, a refund may also be initiated by iWebz if it determines at its sole discretion that the order cannot be processed/honoured due to technical difficulties. In such cases, iWebz will first contact you before initiating the order cancellation & refund. iWebz will refund 100% of the amount billed, inclusive of taxes (if any), in such cases.

We always want you to be completely satisfied. We include a 7-day, 100% money-back guarantee on SSL Certificate products. We will cancel and refund your order upon request by you within 7 days from the initial order/payment date if, after completing Domain Control Validation (DCV) successfully, there is a problem with issuing the certificate, or if the certificate issued is defective in some way, as determined by iWebz. All refund/cancellation requests must be submitted within 7 days from the initial order/payment date. Only orders cancelled during this period will be eligible for a full refund as defined above. Refund granted will be 100% of the amount billed inclusive of taxes (if any) for the order.

If the User is unable to prove domain ownership using any of the (Email or File or DNS) Domain Control Validation methods provided, or if iWebz determines that the certificate order cannot be processed because the User tried to order a certificate for a domain name that the User did not own/control, then a Cancellation fee of 5% of the total amount paid (inclusive of taxes) will be retained for recovery of the cost of services mis-used, and the refund will be limited to 95% of the total paid for the certificate order.

Due to the terms of the issuing CA, Subject Alternate Names (SANs) once added to Multi-Domain Certificates cannot be removed, and hence, you cannot ask for the removal of SANs and refund of the amount paid towards them once they are added.

If you are considering submitting a refund/cancellation request, you can always discuss your options by contacting us via the Contact Support link on the Order Details page prior to requesting an Order cancellation and refund.

If you request a refund due to your refusal or inability to perform Certificate Enrollment / Domain Control Validation / Certificate Setup and configuration / Certificate Re-issue, we may block you from using payment gateway payment options for future orders. If you refuse or are unable to complete Domain Control Validation for your domain name, the domain name may also be blocked for future orders.

To request a refund, you must raise the Cancellation/Refund Request in writing via the Contact Support link on the Order Details page for the specific order in question and mention the order/invoice number. Any refund requests raised directly with our payment gateway partner without contacting iWebz will also be governed by this refund policy.

Refunded amounts will be credited to the same Payment Method used to pay for the order. Please note that a refund typically takes a few days to process and depends on the Payment Method used.

All refunds will be given against the Indian Rupee as the reference/store currency.

 

Certificate Re-issues

You can request a re-issue of the certificate free of cost, at any time during the validity period of the certificate using the Re-issue Certificate link on the Order Details page for that specific certificate order.

You must re-issue the certificate with a CSR for the same Common Name as the certificate issued before. Changing the Common Name while re-issuing the certificate is not allowed.

Please note the certificate re-issue request will have to undergo a File-based Domain Validation process and will have to be set up/installed by replacing the previous certificate files. The validity of the re-issued certificate will be the same as those of the originally issued certificate.

Users should consider re-issuing their SSL certificate if:

  • The certificate’s private key has been compromised and the user wants to revoke their original SSL certificate.
  • A user moved the website to another server where the previously generated private key cannot be used.
  • A user chose to move to another web host provider where the previously generated private key cannot be used.
