Terms of Service

1. Agreement to These Terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms") form an agreement between you and NodifyHost ("NodifyHost," "we," "our," or "us").

These Terms apply to all NodifyHost services unless a separate written agreement or product-specific policy expressly states otherwise.

Additional policies, product descriptions, order details, and notices may be incorporated into these Terms by reference, including our Privacy Policy and any applicable refund or acceptable-use requirements.

By using a service on behalf of a business, organization, community, or other entity, you confirm that you are authorized to accept these Terms on its behalf.

2. Eligibility

You must be legally capable of entering into a binding agreement in your jurisdiction.

You must be at least 13 years old or the minimum legal age required to use or purchase online services where you live, whichever is higher.

If you are under the legal age of majority, you must have permission from a parent or legal guardian. That parent or legal guardian is responsible for the account and all activity performed through it.

3. NodifyHost Services

NodifyHost may provide services including:

• Game server hosting;
• Application and bot hosting;
• Website hosting;
• Database and storage services;
• Virtual private servers;
• Dedicated servers or infrastructure;
• Server-management tools;
• Networking services; and
• Other hosting-related products or features.

Product availability, supported software, locations, hardware, limits, pricing, and features may vary. The description displayed on the relevant product, checkout, or order page forms part of your service agreement.

We may add, modify, replace, limit, migrate, or discontinue a service or feature when reasonably necessary for security, maintenance, legal compliance, technical compatibility, capacity, or business operations.

4. Accounts and Account Security

You must provide accurate, current, and complete information when creating and maintaining your account.

You are responsible for:

• Keeping your account information accurate;
• Protecting your account password;
• Protecting access to your email account;
• Protecting API keys, tokens, and server credentials;
• Managing users who can access your services;
• All activity performed through your account; and
• Promptly reporting suspected unauthorized access.

You may not sell, rent, transfer, or provide control of your NodifyHost account to another person without our prior permission.

We may require email, identity, payment, or fraud verification before activating, restoring, transferring, or modifying an account or service.

5. Orders and Service Provisioning

Submitting an order does not guarantee that the order will be accepted.

We may reject, delay, manually review, or cancel an order because of suspected fraud, incorrect pricing, unavailable capacity, unsupported configurations, payment issues, legal restrictions, policy concerns, or technical limitations.

Service activation may be automatic or may require manual review. Any provisioning time displayed on our website is an estimate unless expressly guaranteed in writing.

You are responsible for confirming that the selected product, software, server location, resources, and configuration meet your needs before completing an order.

If a material pricing or configuration error affects an order, we may correct the error, cancel the affected order, or refund the amount paid for that order.

6. Payments and Billing

Unless otherwise stated, NodifyHost services are billed in advance.

You agree to pay all charges, fees, taxes, and other amounts associated with your account, orders, renewals, upgrades, and authorized service usage.

You authorize NodifyHost and its payment processors to charge the payment method you provide for authorized purchases and recurring renewals.

You are responsible for maintaining valid billing information and ensuring that sufficient funds are available.

Invoices must be paid by the displayed due date. An overdue or unpaid invoice may result in service suspension, termination, or automatic deletion.

Account credit and promotional credit have no cash value, are generally non-transferable, and may only be used for eligible NodifyHost services.

7. Renewals and Cancellations

Recurring services renew according to the billing cycle selected at checkout unless canceled before the applicable renewal date.

Where automatic billing is enabled, you authorize us to attempt to collect the renewal amount using the payment method saved to your account.

Failure to receive a renewal reminder does not remove your responsibility to pay an invoice or cancel a service that you no longer want.

Cancellation requests should be submitted using the cancellation controls available in your account settings.

Canceling a service does not automatically refund a payment that has already been processed.

8. Refunds

Hosting products are digital services that may be provisioned immediately.

Except where required by law or expressly stated in a product-specific refund policy, payments are non-refundable after a service has been provisioned.

Refund requests may be reviewed individually, but submitting a request does not guarantee approval.

Refunds may be refused for:

• Services suspended or terminated because of abuse;
• Violations of these Terms;
• Domain registrations or third-party licenses;
• Setup or management work already completed;
• Account credit or promotional credit;
• Cryptocurrency or other irreversible payments;
• Renewals not canceled before their renewal date;
• Resources, storage, or bandwidth already used;
• Fraudulent purchases; or
• Improper payment disputes or chargebacks.

9. Chargebacks and Payment Disputes

You should contact NodifyHost support before filing a chargeback or payment dispute so that we have a reasonable opportunity to investigate and resolve the issue.

Fraudulent, abusive, or unauthorized payment disputes may result in immediate account suspension or termination.

To the extent permitted by law, you remain responsible for valid unpaid balances and reasonable costs caused by an improper dispute.

10. Acceptable Use

You may only use NodifyHost services for lawful purposes.

You may not use, assist another person in using, or knowingly permit a service to be used for prohibited activity.

Prohibited activity includes:

• Violating applicable laws or regulations;
• Hosting or distributing malware, ransomware, spyware, credential stealers, viruses, or malicious software;
• Conducting, coordinating, or supporting denial-of-service or distributed denial-of-service attacks;
• Operating botnets, command-and-control services, or compromised devices;
• Phishing, impersonation, fraud, or identity theft;
• Sending spam or unsolicited bulk communications;
• Unauthorized scanning, exploitation, intrusion, or attempted access to another system;
• Distributing stolen credentials, payment data, private information, or unlawfully obtained databases;
• Hosting or distributing content that sexually exploits or abuses minors;
• Promoting terrorism or unlawful violent activity;
• Infringing copyrights, trademarks, licenses, or other intellectual-property rights;
• Distributing pirated software, stolen content, or unauthorized license keys;
• Cryptocurrency mining unless expressly allowed for the purchased product;
• Attempting to bypass billing, security, suspension, or resource limitations;
• Using excessive resources in a manner that negatively affects other customers or infrastructure;
• Hosting illegal marketplaces or unlawful gambling services;
• Using a service to unlawfully harass or threaten others;
• Concealing prohibited activity through proxies, tunnels, relays, or similar methods; or
• Any activity that creates legal, financial, security, reputational, or operational risk for NodifyHost, its customers, staff, or providers.

We may investigate suspected violations and cooperate with payment processors, infrastructure providers, network providers, or lawful government requests where appropriate.

11. Resource Usage

Your service is subject to the limits displayed in its product description, order, billing system, or control panel.

Limits may apply to:

• CPU usage;
• Memory;
• Storage;
• Bandwidth;
• Databases;
• Network ports;
• Processes;
• Connections;
• Backups; and
• Other technical resources.

You may not attempt to bypass, manipulate, disable, or evade technical resource restrictions.

If a service causes instability, excessive load, network disruption, abuse, or a security risk, we may limit, isolate, migrate, suspend, or stop the affected service.

A product described as "unlimited" remains subject to reasonable technical limits, fair usage, lawful use, and the requirement not to harm shared infrastructure.

12. Customer Content

You retain ownership of the files, databases, applications, software, messages, configurations, and other content that you upload, store, or transmit through your service.

You grant NodifyHost a limited, non-exclusive right to host, copy, transmit, process, back up, and otherwise handle your content only as reasonably necessary to:

• Provide and maintain your service;
• Perform backups and restoration;
• Investigate technical or security issues;
• Prevent fraud and abuse;
• Comply with applicable law; and
• Enforce these Terms.

You represent that you have all rights and permissions necessary to upload, store, process, and distribute your content.

NodifyHost does not endorse customer content and is not responsible for content hosted or transmitted by a customer.

13. Backups and Data Loss

You are responsible for maintaining independent, current, and tested backups of all important files, databases, configurations, and other data.

NodifyHost may offer automated or manual backup features. Unless expressly guaranteed in a separate written agreement, backups are provided on a best-effort basis and are not guaranteed.

Backups may be incomplete, corrupted, delayed, unavailable, or deleted. You should regularly download important backups to a location that is not controlled by NodifyHost.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, NodifyHost is not responsible for data loss caused by hardware failure, software errors, customer actions, compromised credentials, malware, suspension, termination, automatic deletion, or events outside our reasonable control.

14. Service Suspension

NodifyHost may suspend, restrict, or isolate an account or service when reasonably necessary.

Reasons for suspension may include:

• Unpaid or overdue invoices;
• Suspected fraud or unauthorized payment activity;
• Violations of these Terms;
• Security threats or compromised services;
• Resource abuse or infrastructure instability;
• Legal or regulatory requirements;
• Requests from an upstream provider;
• Abuse complaints requiring investigation;
• Threats against customers, staff, or systems; or
• Emergency maintenance.

Where reasonably possible, we may provide notice and an opportunity to resolve the issue. Immediate suspension may occur when delay could increase legal, technical, financial, or security harm.

Service fees may continue during suspension unless NodifyHost states otherwise. Suspension does not remove outstanding payment obligations.

15. Automatic Deletion and User Deletion Requests

Automatic Service-Data Deletion

NodifyHost uses automated deletion processes for certain canceled, terminated, expired, or unpaid services.

When a service reaches its scheduled deletion point, its hosted files, databases, applications, configurations, backups, logs, and related service data may be permanently deleted.

Suspension and deletion schedules may vary according to the product, billing status, platform, infrastructure provider, or applicable legal requirements.

You are responsible for downloading and preserving all required data before canceling a service or allowing an invoice to become overdue. After automated deletion is completed, recovery may be impossible.

User-Requested Account and Data Deletion

Users may submit account and eligible personal-data deletion requests through the controls available in their account settings.

We may require account-ownership or identity verification before completing a deletion request.

Eligible account information will be deleted or anonymized after a verified request is processed, except where continued retention is reasonably necessary for:

• Billing and transaction records;
• Tax or accounting requirements;
• Fraud prevention;
• Security or abuse investigations;
• Dispute resolution;
• Legal claims;
• Compliance with applicable law; or
• Enforcement of our agreements.

Information contained in backups may remain until the relevant backup expires or is overwritten under the applicable backup schedule.

16. Account and Service Termination

We may terminate an account or service because of material or repeated violations of these Terms, illegal activity, fraud, unresolved abuse, threats, nonpayment, infrastructure risk, or another serious policy violation.

Serious violations may result in immediate termination and deletion without advance notice or refund, to the extent permitted by law.

Termination does not remove valid unpaid balances, legal obligations, or provisions of these Terms that are intended to continue after termination.

17. Availability, Maintenance, and Service Changes

We work to provide reliable services, but we do not guarantee that every service will always be uninterrupted, available, secure, or error-free.

Service interruptions may result from:

• Scheduled or emergency maintenance;
• Hardware or software failures;
• Network or power outages;
• Cyberattacks or abusive traffic;
• Third-party or upstream-provider failures;
• Natural disasters;
• Government actions;
• Customer configurations; or
• Events outside our reasonable control.

We may migrate a service between servers, networks, locations, or infrastructure providers to perform maintenance, improve reliability, address capacity needs, or resolve security issues.

Any guaranteed uptime commitment or service credit applies only where expressly provided in a separate Service Level Agreement.

18. Customer Support

Support is provided through the methods and during the hours displayed on the NodifyHost website or customer portal.

Response and resolution times are estimates unless a specific time is guaranteed under a separate written agreement.

Standard support generally covers NodifyHost systems, service availability, billing, account access, and supported control-panel features.

Standard support may not include custom development, third-party software configuration, data recovery, malware removal, or customer-code debugging unless those services are included in the purchased product.

Customers must communicate respectfully with staff. Harassment, discrimination, threats, repeated abuse, or attempts to manipulate support personnel may result in restricted support or account termination.

19. Security Responsibilities

You are responsible for securely configuring and maintaining software installed on your service, including applications, plugins, databases, passwords, APIs, permissions, and user accounts.

You must install appropriate security updates and take reasonable steps to prevent unauthorized access.

If we believe a service has been compromised, we may isolate, suspend, stop, reset, or otherwise restrict it to protect the customer, NodifyHost, or third parties.

You may not perform vulnerability testing, penetration testing, or other security testing against NodifyHost systems without prior written permission.

20. Third-Party Services

NodifyHost services may depend on third-party infrastructure, networks, software, licenses, payment processors, registries, applications, or other providers.

Your use of a third-party product may be subject to that provider's terms, privacy policy, license conditions, and availability.

NodifyHost is not responsible for third-party outages, policy changes, discontinuation, security incidents, or conduct outside our reasonable control.

Fees paid for domains, software licenses, IP addresses, or other third-party products may be non-refundable.

21. Intellectual Property

NodifyHost and its licensors retain all rights in the NodifyHost name, logos, branding, website, interfaces, documentation, software, designs, and original materials.

These Terms do not transfer ownership of any NodifyHost intellectual property to you.

You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, impersonate, reverse engineer, or create misleading versions of NodifyHost materials except where applicable law expressly permits it.

22. Privacy

Our collection, use, storage, retention, sharing, and deletion of personal information are described in the NodifyHost Privacy Policy.

By using NodifyHost, you acknowledge that personal information may be processed as reasonably necessary to provide services, process payments, prevent fraud, maintain security, respond to support requests, and comply with legal obligations.

Read our Privacy Policy for more information.

23. Disclaimer of Warranties

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, NodifyHost services are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis.

We disclaim warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, uninterrupted availability, complete security, compatibility, and error-free operation to the extent such warranties may legally be disclaimed.

We do not guarantee that a service will meet every customer requirement, remain uninterrupted, prevent every attack, preserve every file, or remain compatible with all third-party software.

24. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, NodifyHost and its owners, employees, contractors, affiliates, and providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, punitive, exemplary, or consequential damages.

This includes damages related to:

• Lost data or backups;
• Lost profits or revenue;
• Business interruption;
• Loss of reputation or customers;
• Security incidents;
• Service suspension or termination;
• Third-party conduct; or
• Inability to access or use a service.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, NodifyHost's total liability for claims relating to a specific service will not exceed the amount paid to NodifyHost for that affected service during the three months immediately before the event giving rise to the claim.

Some jurisdictions do not permit certain limitations. Where a limitation is prohibited, it will apply only to the maximum extent legally permitted.

25. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless NodifyHost and its owners, employees, contractors, affiliates, and providers from claims, losses, liabilities, damages, and reasonable expenses arising from:

• Your use of NodifyHost services;
• Your customer content;
• Your violation of these Terms;
• Your violation of applicable law;
• Your infringement of another person's rights; or
• Activity performed through your account or services.

26. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms to reflect changes in our products, technology, business practices, security requirements, or legal obligations.

An updated version will be posted with a revised "Last updated" date.

Where required by law or where a change materially affects your rights, we may provide additional notice through your account, email, or our website.

Continued use of NodifyHost after updated Terms become effective constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

27. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms will be governed by the laws of Tennessee, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

Before beginning formal legal proceedings, you agree to make a reasonable attempt to resolve the dispute by contacting NodifyHost support and providing sufficient information for us to investigate.

Nothing in these Terms limits a consumer right that cannot legally be waived.

28. General Provisions

If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in effect.

Our failure to enforce a provision does not waive our right to enforce that provision later.

You may not assign your rights or obligations under these Terms without our prior written permission.

NodifyHost may assign these Terms as part of a merger, acquisition, restructuring, transfer of assets, or similar business transaction.

These Terms, together with incorporated policies and product-specific agreements, represent the agreement between you and NodifyHost regarding the services.

29. Contact Information

Questions, complaints, billing concerns, or notices concerning these Terms may be submitted through NodifyHost support.
