This policy represents the Cloudy24 Terms of Service ("TOS") in its entirety and supersedes any other written or oral policy. This policy defines the terms of service all Cloudy24 customers agree to when they sign-up for any of the Cloudy24 website hosting services. Cloudy24 reserves the exclusive right to change, amend or revise any portion of this TOS policy at any time, with or without written notice to our customers.
Customers using any services offered by Cloudy24 agree to be obligated by and must comply with all policies in this TOS or must otherwise opt out of and cancel their web hosting service with Cloudy24. Cloudy24 retains the sole discretion to make judgment regarding any violation by any Cloudy24 customer and may take action against any customer deemed to be in violation of these terms including the cancellation of any customer's services without refund and/or, if deemed appropriate, be legally prosecuted.Â
In consideration for Cloudy24 maintaining one or more accounts (each "Account"), you, as the Cloudy24 customer, agree to the following terms of service.Â
We will setup your account after we have received payment and we and/or our payment partner(s) have screened the order(s) in case of fraud. 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 on file will be used for this purpose. It is your responsibility to ensure the email address on file is current or up to date at all times. If you have a domain name registered with Cloudy24, 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. Cloudy24 is not responsible for a lapsed registration due to outdated contact information being associated with the domain.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 sales team 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.
Our transfers team will make every effort to help you move your site to us. However, transfers are provided as a courtesy service, and we can not 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. The free transfer services are available for 7 days from your sign update. Transfers outside of the 7 Day free period will incur a charge; please contact a member of the transfers department with specific details to receive a price quote.
All services provided by Cloudy24 may only be used for lawful purposes. The laws of the State of Florida, the State of Texas, and the United States of America apply.

If the request is of a licensing issue, we may require further documentation. Using a shared account as a backup/storage device is not permitted, except for one cPanel backup of the same account.

Cloudy24 Corporation systems may be monitored for all lawful purposes, including to ensure that use is authorized, for management of the system, to facilitate protection against unauthorized access, and to verify security procedures, survivability, and operational security. During monitoring, information may be examined, recorded, copied and used for authorized purposes. Use of Cloudy24 Corporation system(s) constitutes consent to monitoring for these purposes. Any account found connecting to a third party network or system without authorization from the third party is subject to suspension. Access to networks or systems outside of your direct control must be with expressed written consent from the third party. Cloudy24 may, at its discretion, request and require documentation to prove access to a third party network or system is authorized. We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone. Any material that, in our judgment, is obscene, threatening, illegal, or violates our terms of service in any manner may be removed from our servers (or otherwise disabled), with or without notice.

All abuse issues must be dealt with via trouble-ticket/email and will have a response within 48 hours. Sites hosted on https://cloudy24.com’s service(s) are regulated only by U.S. law. Given this fact, and under Section 230(c) of the Communications Decency Act, we do not remove allegedly defamatory material from domains hosted on our service(s). The only exception to this rule is if the material is defamatory by a court, as evidenced by a court order. Cloudy24.com is not in a position to investigate and validate or invalidate the veracity of individual defamation claims, which is why we rely on the legal system and courts to determine whether or not material is indeed considered defamatory. In any case in which a court order indicates the material is defamatory, libelous, or slanderous in nature; we will disable access to the material. Similarly, in any case in which a US Court has placed an injunction against specified content or material; we will comply and remove or disable access to the material in question. The language of Section 230(c) of the Communications Decency Act fundamentally states that Internet services providers like Cloudy24.com and many of Cloudy24.com other web hosting services and brands are republishers and not the publisher of content. Our service merely provides a hosting platform and space on which to host content, and any creation or publication of content on our services is the sole responsibility of the third-party user which creates or publishes the content. Therefore, Cloudy24.com should not be held liable for any allegedly defamatory, offensive or harassing content published on sites hosted under Cloudy24.com’s Webhosting service(s). If in doubt regarding the acceptability of your site or service, please contact us at legal [at] cloudy24 dot net and we will be happy to assist you.

Resellers: we will suspend the site in question and will notify you so you may terminate the account. We will further monitor your activity; more than one infraction of this type may result in the immediate termination of your account. It is your responsibility to ensure that scripts/programs installed under your account are secure and permissions of directories are set properly, regardless of installation method. When at all possible, set permissions on most directories to 755 or as restrictive as possible. Users are ultimately responsible for all actions taken under their account. This includes the compromise of credentials such as user name and password. It is required that you use a secure password. If a weak password is used, your account may be suspended until you agree to use a more secure password. Audits may be done to prevent weak passwords from being used. If an audit is performed, and your password is found to be weak, we will notify you and allow time for you to change/update your password.
We take a zero-tolerance stance against sending of unsolicited e-mail, bulk emailing, and spam. Safe lists and purchased lists will be treated as spam. Any user who sends out spam will have their account terminated with or without notice. Sites advertised via SPAM (Spamvertised) may not be hosted on our servers.

Cloudy24 reserves the right to charge the holder of the account used to send any unsolicited e-mail a clean up fee or any charges incurred for blacklist removal. This cost of the cleanup fee is entirely at the discretion of Cloudy24.
