You must recognize and acknowledge that due to the nature of web hosting technology, occasional unavailability of the services cannot be avoided. Sometimes there are equipment malfunctions. At other times we undertake periodic maintenance procedures or repairs. Still other times, there are causes beyond our control like power failures, interruption or failure of telecommunication or digital transmission links, hostile network attacks, network traffic and other occurrences. We have not promised to provide you with uninterrupted service.

Free Technical Support
UnlimitedGB's Free Technical Support is limited to issues that are directly related to your Web Hosting Account. UnlimitedGB does not provide website maintenance services in respect of any Hosted Website. Without limiting this exclusion, you also agree that UnlimitedGB accepts no responsibility for any deficiency or inaccuracy in any of your Hosted Website that is attributable to defects in your website and/or database caused due to errors or mistakes in development/coding/programming.

You further acknowledge that UnlimitedGB's Technical Support does not include the maintenance of other direct or indirect issues/problems (but not limited to) such as HTML coding, Website Programming, Content/Data Migration, Uploading or Downloading of files for you, troubleshooting your website and/or database, adding new files to your website and configuring scripts in any way whatsoever. For this there will be an additional cost which is not covered within your web hosting plan/package.

During National Holidays and during some occasional Sundays Our Technical Support will be limited. During this time, we will be still able to provide you with Basic Non-Technical Support via Phone and Live Chat. There will be lesser staffs attending to your issues so we hope you would excuse the possible delay on our support only during that day.

The charge for domain name renewal/registration/transfer is non-refundable as you own the domain name for the paid term. Please understand that this is not simply because we refuse to issue a refund. Domain name renewal/registration/transfer is irreversible, making any money paid for the domain name non-refundable.

All "Shared Hosting Plans" on UnlimitedGB.com's website with the term "Unlimited" on all services/features/packages are ONLY SUITABLE FOR PERSONAL OR SMALL BUSINESS CUSTOMERS.

Understanding what is Unlimited Bandwidth, Disk Usage, Email and FTP accounts and other Unlimited Resources. "UNLIMITED" does not mean "INFINITE", just because you can have an unlimited amount of something does not mean it is physically possible to consume an infinite amount. All "Unlimited" services are only suitable for personal or small business customers.

For Example: when you go to an all-you-can-eat buffet, you can eat an unlimited amount of food. However, it is impossible for you to eat an infinite amount of food because of the size of your stomach, the number of hours the restaurant is open, how much food is physically available, and the fact that you cannot share your food or take it home with you. Certain rules for the buffet are put in place so one person does not come in and take all the food from all the other paying customers.

UnlimitedGB may monitor User's use of bandwidth, disk usage and other resources. UnlimitedGB, in its sole discretion, shall have the right to take any corrective action if User's utilization of bandwidth, disk usage or other resources exceeds the Agreed Usage, or normal usage by our typical shared hosting customer, resource usage, or is used for other improper storage or usage. Such corrective action may include the assessment of additional charges, disconnection or discontinuance of any and all Services, removal or deletion of User's Web site, User Content, User's electronic mail and e-mail services and/or other materials and services or termination the User's account and of this Agreement, which actions may be taken in UnlimitedGB's sole and absolute discretion. We may also remove any materials that, in our sole discretion, may be illegal, may subject us to liability, or which may violate this Acceptable Use Policy. UnlimitedGB may cooperate with legal authorities and/or third parties in the investigation of any suspected or alleged crime or civil wrongdoing. Your violation of this Acceptable Use Policy may result in the suspension or immediate termination of your account or other services WITHOUT ANY PRIOR NOTICE.

UnlimitedGB requests that anyone with information about a violation of this Acceptable Use Policy, or of UnlimitedGB's Terms of Service, report it by sending an email to abuse@unlimitedgb.com

Disproportionate loads placed on the server.
While our shared services are suitable for personal or small business customers, there comes a time for some websites when they are better suited for a larger plan, which allows for more dedicated CPU and memory resources. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to discontinue service to any customer with a website or other hosted data that takes up more than 8% of the resources of the server's CPU for longer than 180 seconds. This means that if your website is found to be utilizing more than 8% of the CPU and/or memory of our server, we reserve the right to take your site offline. If this becomes necessary, you can either upgrade your hosting package, or request a pro-rated refund of the amounts you have paid in advance for the services. Due to the severity of this, and our ability to act quickly to correct these situations to avoid server issues, we will do everything reasonably feasible to provide you with a warning prior to taking your site offline, but we accept no obligation to do so.

These Terms of Service May Change
Due to our evolving business, and the changing nature of the web hosting industry, these terms of service may change. We will post the changes here, and your continued use of the service means you accept the changes we have made.
