Our terms of service

LAST UPDATED 1/04/2019

By subscribing to our services, you (the client) are in agreement with our Terms of Service (TMT Hosting). TMT Hosting reserves the right to cancel, suspend or terminate any service (subscription) provided with or without a refund or notice or warning for any reason. TMT Hosting also reserves the right to change and modify the Terms of Agreement at any time with or without client notification. It is up to the client to periodically check and familiarise themselves with the recent Terms of Service. If any client does not comply with the new Terms of Service modifications, their service will be terminated.

Service Payment, Refunds and Cancellation Guidelines
All payment invoices are generated 15 days before payment is due. Failure to pay before the due date will result in suspended service until payment is received. Late payments are subject to a 10% late fee. After 8 days of non-payment from the due date, the service will be terminated and TMT Hosting will not be responsible for any data loss due to termination. TMT Hosting provides a 30 day refund period for the first billing period e.g. 1 month for monthly or 3 months for quarterly, from the invoice payment date, of a client on all our Web Hosting plans.

TMT Hosting reserves the right to deny refunds for their services with or without reason, regardless of the Service Refunds and Cancellation Guidelines if the user does not follow the Acceptable Use Policy or request e.g. a lot of support prior to requesting a refund or abuse such as spam. All cancellations must be given 5 days before the next billing due date.

Refunds only apply for New Users/Accounts. Existing users with more than one subscription are eligible for no refunds. Chargebacks/Disputes will be treated as fraud resulting in the service being suspended/terminated and all right to a refund void, even if within 48 hours of purchase. All refunds must be requested via a billing ticket, requests made via any other method are not valid.

By subscribing to our service the client agrees that they are over 18 and own the Paypal account or debit/credit card being used for payment or they have permission from the account/card owner. The client also agrees that if they select 'subscribe' on the invoice when paying with Paypal that payment will be taken automatically by Paypal when a new invoice is generated. If the client pays via our debit/credit card option then payment will be taken automatically 2 days prior to the due date if the client has not already paid their pending invoice until a cancellation request is issued.

Service Level Agreement
TMT Hosting does not guarantee 99.9% uptime however this is what we aim for. In the event that uptime is below 99.9%, compensation may be issued at the discretion of the CEO. SLA (service-level agreement) credit will not be issued if our network or hardware is not to blame.

Planned maintenance events and server upgrades are not eligible for SLA (service-level agreement) credit. SLA (service-level agreement) credit will be equal to one day's usage for every hour of outage, not to exceed one month's recurring charge of the affected service, given in the form of account credit only. We must be contacted via billing support ticket within 7 days of the downtime for a SLA (service-level agreement) credit claim to be valid. We reserve the right to deny a SLA credit claim at any time for any reason.

TMT Hosting will not be liable to a client for damages or losses in any situation.

Server File Backups
TMT Hosting does take daily backups on their web hosting packages for 30 days but if your account terminates they will be removed and TMT Hosting will not be liable for any data loss.

Abuse Complaints
If we receive an abuse complaint, including DMCA/copyright notices, then we will forward it onto the client. We will allow up to 24 hours for a reply with a resolution, if we do not receive a reply in this time then the network port of the service will be suspended pending a resolution. A resolution is classed as an act that stops the abuse from recurring. If the abuse continues on an ongoing basis then we are permitted to terminate the service involved.

VPS CPU usage
A VPS must not use more than 50% of the allocated cores for more than 1 hour. E.g. if the client's VPS has 3 cores, they must not use more than 150% CPU for more than 1 hour at a time. There must be a break of 2 hours in between the 1 hour period. If the CPU usage is disruptive then we reserve the right to shutdown or suspend the VPS.

Client Server Sharing / File Responsibility
TMT Hosting serves an environment with the sole purpose of providing hosting services and will not be held responsible for a client sharing his or her account (with admins/sub-users) or files stored on the said account. In the event where shared accounts with other users (admins/sub-users) become malicious to the client (due to conflicting interest, etc.), TMT Hosting is not responsible for this action. Furthermore, all files stored on a client's server (except for the files that come standard) are also his or her responsibility and holds no merit with TMT Hosting.
