Customers can renew their contract as often as they wish. They have the option to pay for virtual servers in advance for a certain period of time. The contract is automatically renewed if payment is made to 1337 Services GmbH on an ongoing basis. Non-payment results in an implied termination of the contract. If customers have paid by credit card and deposited their associated data, 1337 Services GmbH will automatically debit the annual fee for the purpose of renewing the contract. If another payment method has been used, an active payment by the customer is required. 1337 Services GmbH will send an invoice for the contract extension to the customer 14 days before the end of the term. If the customer pays the bill, the contract is automatically extended. Failure to pay will result in suspension of the server. Two days after the suspension, the server is deleted. During the suspension, the customer can prevent the deletion of the server by making a payment.

aa) Customers have not settled their invoice after the due date;
bb) Customers have violated laws and this violation constitutes a substantial infringement of the law.
1337 Services GmbH is entitled to delete the virtual servers and the data on them when the termination takes effect. Insofar as 1337 Services GmbH terminates the contract without notice, it shall retain the data on the server for retrieval by the customer for a further 14 days after sending the notice of termination. 1337 Services GmbH may not delete data on servers if doing so would jeopardise the success of criminal investigations.
