These TOS may be modified from time-to-time and, by continuing to use our Services, you agree to be bound by the modifications. The most recent version of these TOS can always be found here.

2.Customers

While we facilitate your business on the Internet, we are an independent contractor. We only have control of the products and services we provide directly, and are not liable for your actions, the actions of third party service providers, or the actions of individuals who use your products and services (“End Users”).

  1. Services

The Webpage Site provides a number of services and products to its customers, which are collectively referred to in these TOS as the “Services”.  Regardless of whether you pay for a Service or it is provided as part of a package or for free, any Service you request or allow to be provided by The Webpage Site is included as part of the “Services” we refer to in these TOS and the Policies.  All Services are subject to each of our Policies.  Services may also be provided by third parties and their terms of service or use that may contain additional or different terms will also apply to your use of their services.  We may change the specifications or details of the Services at any time but we have no obligation to change the Services.  Additionally, the third parties we contract with to provide Services may change their offering between the time of purchase and the date the Services are delivered.  We will use commercially reasonable efforts to inform you of changes to the Services.

  4. Terms Specific to Domain Name Services.
    1. We resell domain names. When you apply to register a domain name, your request is transmitted to eNom(www.eNom.com).  By using our Domain Name Services, you agree to be bound by eNom’s domain name registration policies and procedures, so please read them. These policies and procedures are available at: www.eNom.com/terms.  Because of the mechanics of domain name registration, we cannot guarantee that your domain name will be registered.  After registration, it is your responsibility to ensure your domain name does not lapse, for whatever reason, and we are not responsible for any lapse or any damages caused by any lapse.
    2. It is your sole responsibility to fully investigate and ensure that the domain name you register does not infringe on the legal rights of others. We do not check to see whether a domain name you register or use infringes on the legal rights of any third party and we suggest you seek advice of legal counsel before registering any domain.
  • The Webpage Site will use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with any legal order to cancel, modify, or transfer your domain name. ICANN’s Transfer Policyrequires a 60 day transfer lock to apply to your domain name(s) in the event of any “Change of Registrant.” The Webpage Site currently locks your domain name for any change involving your WhoIs information. This feature is designed to protect your domain from any unauthorized attempt to transfer your domain. We do not offer an option to opt out of the 60 day transfer lock. Any “Change of Registrant” as defined by ICANN’s Transfer Policy will subject the domain to a 60 days transfer lock. Please note that the parameters that trigger the 60 day transfer lock are subject to change. The current parameters which trigger the 60 day lock include: (A) change of registrant First Name, (B) change of registrant Last Name, (C) change of registrant Organization Name, (D) change of registrant Email.  You also agree and understand ICANN’s policies for Domain Verification and any other current or future policies they might enact.  More information can be found here: https://www.enom.com/reseller/legal-policy-agreements/http://www.icann.org/en/resources/registrars/registrant-rights/educational, and http://www.icann.org/en/resources/registrars/registrant-rights/benefits
  1. Terms That Apply to All Hosting Services.
    1. Our Hosting accounts are allocated bandwidth depending on the package you select.  The bandwidth for Services purchased does not rollover and is not creditable across periods.  In the event you require more bandwidth than you have purchased, your account may be suspended until the next period, you may purchase additional bandwidth by upgrading your account, your account may be terminated for a violation of the terms of the package you purchased, or we may charge you an additional fee for the overage, in our sole discretion.
    2. We will provide, as part of the Service cost, the number of primary IP addresses included in the plan you select.  You may request additional IP addresses for an additional fee.  If we need to change one of your assigned IP addresses we will notify you of the change by email. You may use the IP addresses provided only in association with the Services and they may not be transferred.
  • In using our hosting Services, you may not place excessive burdens on our CPUs, servers, or other resources, including our customer support services. You understand that bandwidth, connection speeds, and other similar indices of capacity are maximum numbers. Consistently reaching these capacity numbers may result in our need to place restrictions on your use of the Services, including suspension or termination of your account or a reduction in bandwidth available for your use (also known as bandwidth throttling), in our sole discretion. You agree that we may place restrictions on your use of the Services or customer support services to the extent that they exceed the use of these resources by similarly situated customers.

We will use commercially reasonable efforts to troubleshoot issues upon request, as stated in our Support Policy.
  • Cloud VPS Hosting accounts are billed by usage and charges will accrue over the billing period based on the resources used. The initial purchase payment is put on your account as a credit that is then applied to your next invoice(s).  Since configurations can be changed at any time, your invoice will always show an itemized breakdown of the resources used.  Additional details can be found in our Billing & Refund Policy.
  1. VPS Hosting accounts are allowed to use a maximum of two million (2,000,000) inodes.  You may request additional extensions beyond the two million (2,000,000) inode limit but the request will be granted only after written request to us and in our sole discretion.

  • For our cPanel Shared Web Hosting and cPanel Reseller Hosting Services, our complimentary Server Rewind will provide complimentary backups of your data.  These backups will be done using our commercially reasonable efforts and may not include all files, including some email files, due to technical constraints.  Server Rewind backups are limited to an aggregate 50GB quota. If you exceed 50GB of disk usage in your account, your account will no longer be backed up. Please download any cPanel backups and store them locally.
  1. Reseller Hosting accounts are allowed to use a maximum of six hundred thousand (600,000) inodes per account and thirty-five (35) concurrent HTTP connections to the server. Backups should be downloaded and stored remotely.

We may also delete mail in your spam or bulk mail folder after such email becomes more than thirty (30) days old in order to help manage storage limits.  Notwithstanding any automatic complimentary backup services, you should backup and save your emails locally to ensure they will be available when needed. If an email is deleted, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to retrieve such email but cannot guarantee recovery of any emails.  Email accounts may be subject to storage quotas specified in a particular package.
  3. Our Email Hosting Services do not ensure that your inbound and outbound emails will be delivered; settings beyond our control may impact email deliverability, including emails being sent to a spam folder or emails not being delivered at all.  IP address blacklisting beyond our control may also affect email delivery.

Our support staff will work with you to resolve the issue. We understand that your time is valuable and we do our best to avoid any live troubleshooting of issues. Our staff will gather as much detail from you during your call and open a ticket on your behalf.
