Terms of Service
The use of services from VERTITO.COM, [hereafter referred to as
"Vertito"] constitutes agreement to these terms.
1.) Account Setup / Email on file
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. Providing false contact information of any
kind may result in the termination of your account covering all
services including domains purchased from us.
Transfers
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 on each server platform where the old
websites/domain are being hosted, 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. If you currently
have a CPanel account, chances are your web site pages could be
easily be transferred hassle free.
The free transfer services are available for 30 days from your sign
up date. Transfers outside of the 30 day free period will incur a
charge; please contact a member of our technical support team with
specific details to receive corresponding fees.

4.) Payment Information
You agree to supply appropriate payment for the services received
from Vertito, in advance of the time period during which such
services are provided. You agree that until and unless you notify
Vertito of your desire to cancel any or all services received, those
services will be billed on a recurring basis. This includes when
accounts are suspended. When an account's invoices are paid outside
of the 7 day grace period, invoices may or may not be automatically
generated. However, after the customer notifies Vertito of his or
intent to resume service, invoices will be manually generated and
payment expected for the time the account was suspended.
Account cancellations must be done in writing via the cancellation
form provided. Once we receive your cancellation and have confirmed
all necessary information with you via e-mail, we will inform you in
writing (typically email) that your account has been cancelled. Your
cancellation confirmation will contain a ticket/tracking number in
the subject for your reference, and for verification purposes. You
should immediately receive an automatic cancellation notice or email
with a tracking number or email subject referring to account
cancellation. An employee will confirm your request (and process
your cancellation) shortly thereafter. If you do not hear back from
us, or do not receive the automatic confirmation email within a few
minutes after submitting your cancellation, please contact us
immediately via phone. We require that cancellations of service are
done through the online form to (a) confirm your identity, (b)
confirm in writing you are prepared for all files/emails to be
removed, and (c) document the request. This process reduces the
likelihood of mistakes, fraudulent/malicious requests, and ensures
you are aware that the files, emails, and account may be removed
immediately after a cancellation request is processed.
As a client of Vertito, it is your responsibility to ensure that
your payment information is up to date, and that all invoices are
paid on time. Vertito provides a 7 day grace period from the time
the invoice is generated and when it must be paid. Any invoice that
is outstanding for 7 days and not paid will result in a $2 late fee
and/or an account suspension until account balance has been paid in
full. The $2 late fee is applied in addition to whatever else is
owed to Vertito for services rendered. Access to subjected account will
not be restored until payment has been received. Prolonged unpaid
invoices may result to suspension and/or termination.
It is the customer's responsibility to notify our sales team via
email at sales@vertito.com after paying for a domain renewal and to
ensure the email is received and acted upon. Domain renewal notices

refunds would be scheduled at sole discretion by us within 24 to 120
hours depending on your mode of payment and release of refunds.
Only first-time accounts under shared hosting plans are eligible for a refund. For example, if
you've had an account with us before, cancelled and signed up again,
you will not be eligible for a refund or if you have opened a second
account with us.
Dedicated Server plans and dedicated services mentioned ARE NOT ELIGIBLE for money-back guarantee
and/or refunds. In addition, there are no refunds for any setup fees that were
billed to you when you signed up, no refunds on dedicated services

to have a reduced or disproportionate level of service.
Any abuse of our staff in any medium or format will result in the

practices activity that is against our TOS or our upstream TOS would
lead to immediate suspension and/or termination with or without notice and
with or without refunds to due violation of our TOS and our upstream TOS.

Policy will waive any refund policy and/or money back guarantee.
7a.) Resource Usage
User may not:
a) Use 25% or more of system resources for longer then 90 seconds.
There are numerous activities that could cause such problems; these
include: CGI scripts, FTP, PHP, HTTP, etc.
b) Run stand-alone, unattended server-side processes at any point in
time on the server. This includes any and all daemons, such as IRCD.
c) Run any type of web spider or indexer (including Google Cash /
AdSpy) on shared servers.
d) Run any software that interfaces with an IRC (Internet Relay
Chat) network.
e) Run any bit torrent application, tracker, or client. You may link
to legal torrents off-site, but may not host or store them on our
shared servers.
f) Participate in any file-sharing/peer-to-peer activities
g) Run any gaming servers such as counter-strike, half-life,
battlefield1942, etc
h) Run cron entries with intervals of less than 15 minutes When
using PHP include functions for including a local file, include the
local file rather than the URL. Instead of include("http://yourdomain.com/include.php")
use include("include.php")
7b.) INODES
The use of more than 150,000 inodes on any shared account may
potentially result in a warning first, and if no action is taken
future suspension. Accounts found to be exceeding the 50,000 inode
limit will automatically be removed from our backup system to avoid
over-usage. Every file (a webpage, image file, email, etc) on your
account uses up 1 inode.
Sites that slightly exceed our inode limits are unlikely to be
suspended; however, accounts that constantly create and delete large
numbers of files on a regular basis, have hundreds of thousands of
files, or cause file system damage may be flagged for review and/or
suspension. The primary cause of excessive inodes seems to be due to
users leaving their catchall address enabled, but never checking
their primary account mailbox. Over time, tens of thousands of
messages (or more) build up, eventually pushing the account past our
inode limit. To disable your default mailbox, login to cPanel and
choose "Mail", then "Default Address", "Set Default Address", and
then type in: :fail: No such user here.
7c.) Backup Limit
Any shared account using more than 10 gigs of disk space will be
removed from our off site weekly backup. All data will continue to
be mirrored to a secondary drive which helps protect against data
loss in the event of a drive failure. To maintain the stability of
our servers, we will not restore cPanel backups larger than 10 GB of
size on our hosting plans.
8.) Unlimited
Web Space Policy
Vertito customers are privileged to be offered unlimited web
space for their sites on plans as mentioned from our hosting
packages if any. Vertito will start you out with 10000 MBs of space. Once
you approach 90% of its use, simply request additional space using
our Client Area Portal or ticketing support. Vertito will then add
another 10000 MBs of space, free of charge within 24 to 48 hours
after the web space upgrade notification. This process can be
continued until your hosting account no longer requires additional
space and you account does not violates our TOS. The intent of
Vertito is to provide a large amount of web space to serve web
documents, not an off site storage area for electronic files or a
backup of your PC, uploaded by anymeans. It is a must that ninety
percent (90%) of your web pages (html, etc.) must be linked with
files (.GIF, .JPEG, etc.) stored within your space, hosted on
hosting servers managed by Vertito . Web sites that are found to
contain either/or no html documents, a large volume and/or number of
unlinked files, will not be offered any additional web space under
our Unlimited Web Space Policy.
9.) 99.9% Network Uptime Guarantee
This 99.99% Uptime Guarantee applies to any Vertito's
clients in good financial standing with Vertito at the time of a
service outage or server downtime. Except for events that are beyond
Vertito's reasonable control or due to natural causes like fire,
floods, earthquakes, thunder, war, sabotage, inability of raw
materials or supplies needed to sustain uptime such as electrical
power, or any natural-causes disasters, erratic server-hogging web
pages and/or website scripts uploaded by our clients, and/or
scheduled maintenance as posted by Vertito from time to time.
Money back guarantee is due during the first 30 days of risk free
hosting period and the account is not violating any of
our TOS and the customer is of outstanding financial standing. Money
back guarantee will be provided on all packages except for domain
name related purchases, whoisguard subscriptions that were purchased and SSL certificates due to the nature of how
such are being obtained and purchased.
In order for you to receive a credit on your account, you must
request such credit within seven (3) days after you experienced the
down time. You must request credit by ticket submission via our
client portal, on which our Billing Team would handle under the
supervision of Vertito. The body of this ticketing message must
contain your account number, the dates and times of the
unavailability of your web site, and such other customer
identification requested by Vertito. Credits will usually be applied
within thirty (30) days of your credit request. Credit to your
account shall be your sole and exclusive remedy in the event of an
outage.
Vertito has all rights to where to assign or designate your
hosting account to our fleet of servers in order to maintain
server stability, uptime, reliability and performance of our shared hosting
servers to better serve our clients.
10a.) Unlimited Bandwidth Policy
The Vertito unlimited bandwidth policy does not cover all
web sites. There are exceptions and particulars where Unlimited
Bandwidth Policy would not be available or tolerated, these include
the following:

accounts for personal and small business are allowed unlimited

and run a standard web site, you will be covered under the allocated bandwidth policy. Accounts that do not follow our Terms and
Conditions are subject for review, suspension, and when repeated
intentionally would be subject for account deactivation or
termination.
10b.) Bandwidth Usage
You are allocated a monthly bandwidth allowance. This allowance
varies depending on the hosting package you purchase. Should your
account pass the allocated amount we reserve the right to suspend
the account until the start of the next allocation, suspend the
account until more bandwidth is purchased at an additional fee,
suspend the account until you upgrade to a higher level of package,
terminate the account and/or charge you an additional fee for the
overages. Unused transfer in one month cannot be carried over to the
next month.
10c.) Bandwidth Overages
(Dedicated Servers and VPS Accounts Only)
By agreeing to these terms, you understand that VERTITO will bill
you for bandwidth overages in the amount of $0.50/GB for both
dedicated servers and VPS services. We will provide you of your bandwidth
usage history or tracking. Note that bandwidth period is from the
24th to the 23rd of the month.
11.) Money Back Guarantee
We guarantee a 30 money back guarantee on new sign up clients to all
shared hosting accounts. We
reserve the right to refund a prorated amount or no refund at all.
Each of Vertito's managed shared hosting, business hosting and reseller
hosting servers carry a 30 day
unconditional money back guarantee on them. We do not provide money
back guarantee to any of our dedicated server plans. If you are not
completely satisfied with our services within the first 30 days of
your service under any of our shared hosting plans, you will be given a full hosting refund. Remember, this is only for shared,
business and reseller hosting packages and
does not apply to dedicated servers or dedicated server plans, VPS
plans, administrative fees, install
setup fees, or domain name related fees such as domain name
registration, domain name transfers, dedicated IP addresses fees,
ssl certificate installation fees, ssl certificates and whoisguard
ID protection
subscription fees.
In addition, if you have purchased from our Free Domain
Hosting plans, the fees we used to register your domain name would be
first deducted from the overall fee you paid for any hosting plans first
before we credit your refund due to the nature of domain purchase
and registration.
As already mentioned, refunds does not cover domain names, ssl certificates, and
whoisguard id protection purchases incurred by us to commission or
to create your shared hosting plans or hosting accounts from us. The fees from domain name related
services mentioned before this statement need to be deducted
first from the overall refund fee before the actual refund would
be applied to our dear clients requesting for refund. This is due to
the nature of domain name registration which expires and which is
non-deletion services and paid on non-monthly terms as
non-refundable fee registrars. That is why we have presented you our TOS link to inform
you of such terms and policies that we have that needs to be agreed upon by you
as our dear client before final check out process of the order is made.
Bottomline, refunds will not be given to clients that have been cancelled or
suspended due to abuse of our services based on our terms of service
and acceptable use policy. We repeat, no refunds will be given to
fees incurred from or related to domain names, ssl certificates, whoisguard
ID protection subscription, dedicated server plans, and VPS plans.

not provide support to our Reseller's Clients. If a reseller's
client contacts us, we reserve the right to place the client account
on hold until the reseller can assume their responsibility for their
client. All support requests must be made by the reseller on their
clients' behalf for security purposes. Resellers are also
responsible for all content stored or transmitted under their
