Info

The Dakota IX operates as a member-run non-profit; all proceeds go toward maintaining hardware.

Donations of Hardware, Circuits, or Space can offset port fees.

Buying a port allows you to sign up as a voting member.

The exchange is provided on an “as is” basis. BHIX disclaims all warranties and service
guarantees.

1 Gig Ports are Free but do not grant the rights of a voting member.

Port fees are subject to change at any time 

Participants may disconnect (and resign from membership) at any time, and no prorated refunds will be given. DAK-IX may, at any time, disconnect a member port for reasons outlined in the bylaws.

If a member network harms the exchange by advertising bad routes or causing other harm, DAK-IX may temporarily disconnect that member after a reasonable attempt has been made to contact the member. The port will be re-enabled after the issue is resolved. 

Disclaimers

Neither party shall, in any event, regardless of the form of claim, be liable for any indirect, special, punitive, exemplary, speculative, or consequential damages (including lost profits or revenues), subject to the foregoing and not withstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere contained herein, the maximum aggregate liability of either party shall not exceed, regardless of the form of claim, the fees paid or payable by Participant to DAK-IX during the 12-month period preceding the incident.
