You agree to supply appropriate payment for the services received from HostV.com, in advance of the time period during which such services are provided.

Your use of the service is at your sole risk. HostV.com is not responsible for files and data residing on your account. You agree to take full responsibility for files and data transferred and to maintain all appropriate backup of files and data stored on HostV.com servers.

6.) Cancellation and Refunds

HostV.com reserves the right to cancel the account at any time.

Customers may cancel at any time. HostV.com gives you an unconditional 30 day money back guarantee on managed virtual dedicated server hosting. Refund requests after 30 days will be refunded on a prorated basis of any unused time. Payment made for domain registration and dedicated servers will not be refunded, domain name can be transferred to client.

Accounts cancelled/terminated by HostV.com do not qualify for the 30 day money back guarantee. This also includes accounts suspended for TOS violations, in which the customer decides not to fix the violation. Only first-time accounts are eligible for a refund. For example, if you've had an account with us before, cancelled and signed up again, you will not be eligible for a refund or if you have opened a second account with us.

7.) Bandwidth Usage

You are allocated a monthly bandwidth allowance. This allowance varies depending on the hosting package you purchase. Should your account pass the allocated amount we reserve the right to suspend the account until the start of the next allocation, suspend the account until more bandwidth is purchased at an additional fee, suspend the account until you upgrade to a higher level of package, terminate the account and/or charge you an additional fee for the overages. Unused transfer in one month cannot be carried over to the next month.

8.) Price Change

HostV.com reserve the right to change prices listed on HostV.com, and the right to change the amount of resources given to plans at any time. Contract pricing customers will not be affected by any price change throughout the contract period. The amount you pay for hosting will never increase from the date of purchase.

9.) Indemnification

Customer agrees that it shall defend, indemnify, save and hold HostV.com harmless from any and all demands, liabilities, losses, costs and claims, including reasonable attorney's fees asserted against HostV.com, its agents, its customers, officers and employees, that may arise or result from any service provided or performed or agreed to be performed or any product sold by customer, its agents, employees or assigns. Customer agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless HostV.com against liabilities arising out of; (1) any injury to person or property caused by any products sold or otherwise distributed in connection with HostV.com; (2) any material supplied by customer infringing or allegedly infringing on the proprietary rights of a third party; (3) copyright infringement and (4) any defective products sold to customers from HostV.com's server.

10.) Uptime Guarantee

HostV strives to maintain a 99.9% network and server uptime service level. This uptime percentage is a monthly figure, and is calculated solely by HostV monitoring systems or HostV authorized/contracted outside monitoring services. If HostV fails to meet it's 99.9% uptime guarantee, and it is not due to one of the exceptions below, credits will be made available to each client, upon request, on a case by case basis. HostV does not credit a full month's service for minor downtime. This would not be financially healthy for HostV, and in turn would only negatively affect the service level HostV provides to you. "Partial refunds for partial downtime" is our standard policy. In extreme circumstances, HostV may distribute full month credits, but this is dealt with on a case by case basis. Credits are issued for one months service only, never more.

Exceptions: Customer shall not receive any credits under this SLA in connection with any failure or deficiency of the HostV network caused by or associated with:

• Circumstances beyond reasonable control, including, without limitation, acts of any governmental body, war, insurrection, sabotage, embargo, "Acts of God" (ie...fire, flood, earthquake, tornado, etc...), strike or other labor disturbance, interruption of or delay in transportation, unavailability of or interruption or delay in telecommunications or third party services, failure of third party software or inability to obtain raw materials, supplies, or power used in or equipment needed for provision of the Service Level Agreement
• Telco Failure (ie...Verizon™ cutting a fiber line somewhere)
• Backbone peering point issues (ie...UUnet™ having a router go down in Virginia that wipes out internet service for the entire East Coast)
• Scheduled maintenance for hardware/software upgrades
• Hardware failure (faulty hardware is rare, but cannot be predicted nor avoided). HostV utilizes only name brand hardware of the highest quality and performance.
• Software bugs/flaws (Expolits and bugs may develop that cause security issues or downtime)
• DNS issues not within the direct control of HostV
• Network floods, hacks, attacks from outside parties or individuals
• Failure or error of any HostV monitoring or measurement system
• Client's acts or omissions, including without limitation, any negligence, willful misconduct, or use of HostV service(s) in breach of HostV Policy and Service Guidelines (AUP), by Client or others authorized by Client.
