Terms Of Service

The use of services from Netandhost.com which is registered under Companies Act,1956 constitutes agreement to the below terms.

We will activate your account on receipt of payment and It is your responsibility to provide us with an email address which is not @ the domain(s) you are signing up under. If there is ever an abuse issue or we need to contact you, the primary email address given to us at the time of activation will be used for this purpose. It is your responsibility to ensure the email address given to us is current or up to date at all times. If you have a domain name registered with Netandhost.com it is your responsibility to ensure that the contact information for your domain account and your actual domain name(s) is correct and up-to-date.

Netandhost.com is not responsible for a lapsed registration due to outdated contact information being associated with the domain. If you need to verify or change this information, you should contact our billing via email. Providing false contact information of any kind may result in the termination of your account. In dedicated server purchases or high risk transactions, it will be necessary to provide government issued identification and possibly a scan of the credit card used for the purchase. If you fail to meet these requirements, the order may be considered fraudulent in nature and be denied.

Please note that your signup date would be your billing date for recurring payments in case of bank deposits or delayed payments. For example, if you have signed up on the 8th day of the month and did not pay for 8 days during the renewal period, the billing system would still generate your next invoice on the 8th of the next month even though your account would be setup only after the payment has been received for the service. So we urge you to make payments without delay when using offline payment methods to avoid account setup delays.

Our technical support will make every effort to help you move your site/setup to us. However, transfers are provided as a courtesy service, and we cannot make 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. We will try our best, but in some cases we may be unable to assist you in a transfer of data from an old host.
