- Conditions of access to the services offered by the Site
3.1 Creating an account
The creation of a User account is a prerequisite for any purchase and use of our services. It is free of charge and open to any legal person legally constituted and acting, as a professional or non-professional, through a natural person representative duly authorised by virtue of a power, delegation or mandate duly obtained from the legal person concerned, allowing him to act in the name and on behalf of the latter.[AP1]
The data required to create the User account is detailed when it is collected. The User undertakes to provide truthful and reliable information on the day it is entered and in particular not to use false names or addresses, or names or addresses without being authorised to do so.
For the purposes of providing the Services, the User must inform Phoenix Alliance of any changes to this information and confirm its accuracy within fifteen days if requested by Phoenix Alliance or one of its partners. The User can access and modify his/her information at any time in his/her “my account” area.
The User chooses his/her username in accordance with the standards indicated by the Site. The User account is associated with the email address provided during the account creation process. An email address can only be associated with one User account.
The User is solely responsible for the confidentiality of his/her identifiers (login and password) allowing him/her to use his/her User account. Any use of his/her User account made through his/her personal username and password is presumed to have been made by the User.
3.2 Account Closure
The user may permanently close his/her account at any time upon request sent via the contact form to the Phoenix Alliance support department.
Phoenix Alliance reserves the right to recover payments incurred prior to account closure.
In the event of non-compliance with these Terms and Conditions, Phoenix Alliance may suspend or close an account (or limit a User’s ability to use all or part of the Site and purchase Services), at any time after sending by e-mail (or by post) a formal notice that has remained ineffective for a period of five (5) calendar days from its receipt (or its first presentation if applicable).
In the event of fraud or attempted fraud, Phoenix Alliance may suspend or close an account, at any time, by operation of law and without any formality, in particular if Phoenix Alliance has reasonable grounds to believe that:
-
- the User pretends to be another person or entity or misrepresents their identity, or
-
- engages in improper conduct in connection with the use of the Services.
3.3 Consequences of Account Closure
Any closure of an account will result in the permanent deletion of the information communicated to Phoenix Alliance when opening or updating the account, of all documents and other elements stored on the Site in the “my account” area and, where applicable, of any document or content that you have published, downloaded or made available on the Site. It is therefore strongly recommended that the User save, on his computer or on an external hard drive, all documents, information and other elements stored on the Site in his “my account” space. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Phoenix Alliance reserves the right to retain the aforementioned documents, information, and other materials on its servers for a reasonable period of time.
For subscriptions, payments made before the account is closed remain due under the following conditions:
– payments due for subscriptions with monthly, annual or three-year commitments are made on due date;
– Payments due for “non-binding” subscriptions are made until terminated by Customer or transferred to another Microsoft Partner (Cloud Solution Provider).
In the event of closure of the account by Phoenix Alliance for non-compliance with these Terms and Conditions under the conditions set out in Article 2, no refund, either total or partial, of the sums already paid for the purchase of any Service then in progress will be made. [AP2]
Phoenix Alliance may recover payments incurred prior to the closure of the account.

- Ordering Services
4.1 Orders
The offers of Services offered on the Site are valid, in the absence of any particular indication of duration, as long as the offers are offered on the Site.
Before validating your order, you have the possibility to check the details of the price of the order and to return to the previous pages to correct the content of the order, if necessary.
To place an order for a Service, the User must confirm it by the “double-click” technique, i.e.:
-
- check and possibly correct the content of their order before validating it by clicking on “Order”;
-
- accept the contractual terms and conditions by ticking the box provided for this purpose;
-
- confirm and make the payment by clicking on “Pay”, under the conditions set out in Article 5 (Payment and Billing Terms) below;
In order to order, the User must create an account under the conditions specified in article 3.1 (Account Creation) above. If the User has already placed at least one order on the Site, he/she may order a Service (or pack, subscription, license) [AP4] directly from his/her “My Account” space. Apart from the creation of an account, the steps for ordering a Service are in this case the same as above.
An order can always be placed following a request for a personalized quote, in particular by Phoenix Alliance Partners, via the ad hoc form. In this case, the functionalities of the Website related to the order are not used, but upon confirmation of the order, all the legal effects of the order occur, including the application of the paragraph and the following articles.
Any order constitutes your express agreement to the commencement of the performance of the Services by Phoenix Alliance. Any modification of the order will be subject to the prior written consent of Phoenix Alliance.

In this situation, Phoenix Alliance will provide a quote for the performance of the requested Service. In case of non-acceptance, any amounts paid will be refunded at no additional cost.
-
- Payment and invoicing terms

In this case, when placing an order, we will provide the bank details of the Phoenix Alliance account to which the transfer is made, as well as the file number to be indicated in the transfer order. The order is considered effective only once the secure bank payment center has given its approval to the transaction.[AP7]
6.2 Invoicing
For each order, Phoenix Alliance sends the invoice by e-mail to the Customer. The invoice is sent to the Client by e-mail at each billing deadline.
The subscription price for a Subscription will be invoiced at the beginning of each month or year, as applicable, on the anniversary date of the applicable Subscription, and each new invoice will be sent to the customer by email.
