Terms of Use
September 2021
We’ve updated Section 14 (Cancellations and
Refunds), effective August 5, 2021, to clarify that purchases of certain
add-on products such as SiteLock are non-refundable. On 6/17/2021, we
revised Section 15 (Resource Usage) to clarify our policy on resource
usage and Section 24 (WordPress Plugins) to include new terms applicable
to users of WordPress Plugins. Please read the terms below.
These Terms of Service (the "Agreement") are
an agreement between Corpohosting.com, LLC ("Corpohosting", "us", "our", or the
“Company”) and you ("User" or "you" or "your"). This Agreement sets
forth the general terms and conditions of your use of the products and
services made available by Corpohosting and of the Corpohosting.com website
(collectively, the "Services"). By using the Services, you agree to be
bound by this Agreement. If you do not agree to abide by the terms of
this Agreement, you are not authorized to use or access the Services.
1. Additional Policies and Agreements
-
Use of the Services is also governed by the following
policies, which are incorporated by reference. By using the Services,
you also agree to the terms of the following policies.
- Additional terms may also apply to
certain Services, and are incorporated by reference herein as
applicable. For example, if you register a domain name with us, then the
Domain Registration Agreement will also apply to you and would be
incorporated herein.
2. Account Eligibility
-
By registering for or using the Services, you represent and warrant that:
- You are eighteen (18) years of age or older. The
Services are intended solely for Users who are eighteen (18) years of
age or older. Any registration, use of or access to the Services, by
anyone under eighteen (18) is unauthorized and is a violation of this
Agreement.
- If you use the Services on behalf of another party
you agree that you are authorized to bind such other party to this
Agreement and to act on such other party's behalf with respect to any
actions you take in connection with the Services.
- It is your responsibility to provide
accurate, current, and complete information on the registration forms,
including an email address that is different from the domain you are
signing up under. If there is ever an abuse issue or we need to contact
you, we will use the primary email address we have on file. It is your
responsibility to ensure that the contact information for your account,
including any domain accounts is accurate, correct and complete at all
times. Corpohosting is not responsible for any lapse in the Services, including
without limitation, any lapsed domain registrations due to outdated
contact information being associated with the domain. If you need to
verify or change your contact information, you may utilize the Corpohosting Billing and Support Portal
to update your contact information. Providing false contact information
of any kind may result in the termination of your account. In dedicated
server purchases or certain other cases, you may be required to provide
government issued identification and possibly a scan of the credit card
used for verification purposes. Failure to provide the information
requested may result in your order being denied.
- You agree to be fully responsible for
all use of your account and for any actions that take place through your
account. It is your responsibility to maintain the confidentiality of
your password and other information related to the security of your
account.
- Any dedicated IP order in addition to
those provided with a hosting package may be subject to IP
justification. IP justification practices are subject to change to
remain in compliance with the policies of the American Registry for
Internet Numbers (ARIN). We reserve the right to deny any dedicated IP
request based on insufficient justification or current IP utilization.
- The Service and any data you provide
to Corpohosting is hosted in the United States (U.S.) unless otherwise
provided. If you access the Service from outside of the U.S., you are
voluntarily transferring information (potentially including
personally-identifiable information) and content to the U.S. and you
agreeing that our collection, use, storage and sharing of your
information and content is subject to the laws of the U.S., and not
necessarily of the jurisdiction in which you are located.
3. Transfers
Our Transfers Team will make every effort to
help you move your website to us. Transfers are provided as a courtesy
service. We do not make any guarantees regarding the availability,
possibility, or time required to complete an account transfer. Each
hosting company is configured differently, and some hosting platforms
save data in an incompatible or proprietary format, which may make it
extremely difficult, if not impossible, to migrate some or all account
data. In some cases we may not be able to assist you in a transfer of
data from an old host. The free transfer service is available for thirty
(30) days from your sign up date. Transfers outside of the thirty (30)
day period will incur a charge; please contact a member of our Transfers
department to receive a price quote. In no event shall Corpohosting be held
liable for any lost or missing data or files resulting from a transfer
to or from Corpohosting. You are solely responsible for backing up your data in
all circumstances.
