Transfers
Our Transfers Team will make every effort to help you move your website to us. Transfers are provided as a courtesy service. We do not make any 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. In some cases we may not be able to assist you in a transfer of data from an old host. The free transfer service is available for thirty (30) days from your sign up date. Transfers outside of the thirty (30) day period will incur a charge; please contact a member of our Transfers department to receive a price quote. In no event shall Pro Host Cloud be held liable for any lost or missing data or files resulting from a transfer to or from Pro Host Cloud. You are solely responsible for backing up your data in all circumstances.

Money-Back Guarantee.
1. Cloud Web Hosting Services.
  Pro Host Cloud offers a thirty (30) day money-back guarantee for Pro Host Cloud’s managed, web, and website build services on our hosting site only. We will not refund Website builds once exported to a non-Pro Host Cloud hosting service.
  Subject to the terms described in Section 13 below, if you are not completely satisfied with these hosting services and you terminate
  your account within thirty (30) days of signing up for the Services, you will be given a full refund of the amount paid for hosting.
  This money-back guarantee only applies to fees paid for hosting services and does not apply to domains, administrative fees,
  install fees for custom software or other setup fees, or to any fees for any other additional services.
Cancellations and Refunds.
1. Money-Back Guarantee.
  If an account with a forty-five (45) day money-back guarantee is purchased and then cancelled within the first forty-five (45) days of the beginning of the term (the “Money-Back Guarantee Period”), you will, upon your written request to the HostGator Support Team (the “Refund Request”) within ninety (90) days of such termination or cancellation (“Notice Period”), receive a full refund of all basic shared, VPS and reseller hosting fees previously paid by you to HostGator for the initial term (“Money-Back Guarantee Refund”); provided that such Money-Back Guarantee Refund shall be due to you only upon your compliance with, and subject in all respects to the terms and conditions of, this Section 14. Requests for these refunds must be made in writing to the HostGator Support Team. Refunds will only be issued for basic shared, VPS and reseller hosting services and will not include domains, administrative fees, install fees for custom software or other setup fees, nor will they include any fees for any other additional services. Money-Back Guarantee Refunds will not accrue, and shall not be paid under any circumstances, if you do not provide the applicable Refund Request within the Notice Period.
2. Refund Eligibility.
  Only first-time accounts are eligible for a refund. For example, if you’ve had an account with us before, canceled and signed up again, or if you have opened a second account with us, you will not be eligible for a refund. Violations of this Agreement will waive your rights under the refund policy.
3. Non-refundable Products and Services.
  There are no refunds on dedicated servers, administrative fees, install fees for custom software, and certain add-on services including SiteLock. Please note that domain refunds will only be considered if the domain was ordered in conjunction with a hosting package and will be issued at HostGator’s sole discretion. Any refunds issued for domain names will be reduced by the market value of the gTLD. Purchases of ccTLDs are non-refundable.
4. Cancellation Process.
  You may terminate or cancel the Services by giving HostGator written notice via the cancellation form provided. In such event: (i) you shall be obligated to pay all fees and charges accrued prior to the effectiveness of such cancellation and (ii) HostGator may, in our sole discretion, refund all pre-paid fees for basic hosting services for the full months remaining after the effectiveness of such cancellation (i.e. no partial month fees shall be refunded) less any setup fees, applicable taxes and any discount applied for prepayment, provided that you are not in breach of this Agreement.
  Once we receive your cancellation form and have confirmed all necessary information with you via email, we will inform you in writing (typically email) that your account has been canceled. Your cancellation confirmation will contain a ticket/tracking number in the subject line for your reference and for verification purposes. You should immediately receive an automatic email with a tracking number stating that “Your request has been received….” HostGator 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 form, please contact us immediately via phone at: 1-866-964-2867.
  We require all cancellations to be done through the online form in order to (a) confirm your identity, (b) confirm in writing that you are prepared for all of your files and emails to be removed, and (c) document the request. This process aims to reduce the likelihood of mistakes, fraudulent/malicious requests, and to ensure that you are aware that your files, emails, and account may be removed immediately and permanently after a cancellation request is processed.
  Cancellations for shared and reseller accounts will be effective on the account’s renewal date. Cancellations for dedicated and VPS accounts will be effective immediately.
5. Domains.
  1. Domain Renewals.
    Domain renewals are billed and renewed thirty (30) days before the renewal date. It is your responsibility to notify HostGator’s
    Billing department by calling 1-866-964-2867 or by using emailing customerservice@prohostcloud.com to cancel any domain registration at least thirty (30)
    days prior to the renewal date. No refunds will be given once a domain is renewed. All domain registrations and renewals are final.
  2. Domain Name Fees.
    If your plan includes a free domain name and you cancel within 1 year, our standard fee of $17.99 for the domain name (and any
    applicable taxes) (the “Domain Name Fee”) will be deducted from your refund.
6. Foreign Currencies.
  Exchange rate fluctuations for international payments are constant and unavoidable. All refunds are processed in U.S. dollars and will reflect the exchange rate in effect on the date of the refund. All refunds are subject to this fluctuation and Pro Host Cloud is not responsible for any change in exchange rates between the time of payment and the time of refund.
7. Termination
  Pro Host Cloud may terminate your access to the Services, in whole or in part, including deletion or confiscation of all files, content, and/or domain name registrations, without notice in the event that: (i) you fail to pay any fees due hereunder to Pro Host Cloud; (ii) you violate the terms and conditions of this Agreement; (iii) your conduct may harm Pro Host Cloud or others, cause Pro Host Cloud or others to incur liability, or disrupt Pro Host Cloud’s business operations (as determined by Pro Host Cloud in its sole discretion); (iv) you are abusive toward Pro Host Cloud’s staff in any manner; or (v) for any other lawful reason, including to comply with applicable law, or as otherwise specified in this Agreement. In such event, Pro Host Cloud will not refund to you any fees paid in advance of such termination, and you shall be obligated to pay all fees and charges accrued prior to the effectiveness of such termination.

  1. Acceptable Use Policy. Disk space is intended for use in accordance with Pro Host Cloud’s Acceptable Use Policy and limited to web files, active email and User Website content only. Shared hosting space may not be used for storage, including without limitation, of media, emails, as offsite storage of electronic files, or FTP hosts. Pro Host Cloud expressly reserves the right to review every shared account for excessive usage of CPU, disk space and other resources that may be caused by a violation of this Agreement or the Acceptable Use Policy.

  2. Excessive Server Resources. Use of Pro Host Cloud’s resources must be consistent with a shared hosting environment and must otherwise comply with this Agreement. Accounts with a large number of files (inode count in excess of 200,000) can have an adverse effect on server performance. Similarly, accounts with an excessive number of database tables (in excess of 5000 database tables) or an excessive database size (in excess of 10GB total database usage or 5GB database usage in a single database) negatively affect the performance of the server. In the event that you exceed these amounts, Pro Host Cloud may request that you reduce the number of files/inodes, database tables, or total databases to ensure optimal server performance. Pro Host Cloud reserves the right to terminate your account, with or without notice, for excessive use of resources that result in a degradation of server performance or the Services.
  3. Bandwidth Usage. Platinum Cloud accounts are not limited in their bandwidth allowance.
Uptime Guarantee.
With our 99.9% uptime guarantee, you may receive one (1) month of credit on your account. This uptime guarantee does not apply to planned maintenance. Approval of any credit is at the sole discretion of Pro Host Cloud and may be dependent upon the justification provided. Third party monitoring service reports may not be used for justification due to a variety of factors including the monitor’s network capacity/transit availability. The uptime of the server is defined as the reported uptime from the operating system and the Apache Web Server which may differ from the uptime reported by other individual services. To request a credit, please contact our Billing department by calling 1-814-566-7247 or by using email at billing@prohostcloud.with justification within thirty (30) days of the end of the month for which you are requesting a credit. Uptime guarantees only apply to cloud web solutions.

By using the Services, you hereby submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in connection with any dispute relating to, concerning or arising out of this Agreement. The arbitration will be conducted before a single arbitrator chosen by Pro Host Cloud and will be held at the location chosen by Pro Host Cloud in Pennsylvania. Payment of all filing, administrative and arbitrator fees will be governed by the Pennsylvania, unless otherwise stated in this paragraph. In the event you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Pro Host Cloud will pay as much of your filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees in connection with the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive. The arbitration before the AAA shall proceed solely on an individual basis without the right for any claims to be arbitrated on a class action basis or on bases involving claims brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of others. The Federal Arbitration Act, and not any state arbitration law, governs all arbitration under this paragraph. All decisions rendered by the arbitrator will be binding and final. The arbitrator’s award is final and binding on all parties. The arbitrator’s authority to resolve and make written awards is limited to claims between you and Pro Host Cloud alone. Claims may not be joined or consolidated unless agreed to in writing by all parties. No arbitration award or decision will have any preclusive effect as to issues or claims in any dispute with anyone who is not a named party to the arbitration. If you initiate litigation or any other proceeding against HostGator in violation of this paragraph, you agree to pay Pro Host Cloud’s reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with our enforcement of this paragraph.
Independent Contractor
HostGator and User are independent contractors and nothing contained in this Agreement places Pro Host Cloud and User in the relationship of principal and agent, partners or joint venturers. Neither party has, expressly or by implication, or may represent itself as having, any authority to make contracts or enter into any agreements in the name of the other party, or to obligate or bind the other party in any manner whatsoever.
Governing Law; Jurisdiction
Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the formation of this Agreement or the breach of this Agreement, including any claim based upon an alleged tort, shall be governed by the substantive laws of the State of Pennsylvania. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to this Agreement.
Disclaimer
Pro Host Cloud shall not be responsible for any damages your business may suffer. Pro Host Cloud makes no warranties of any kind, expressed or implied for the Services. Pro Host Cloud disclaims any warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, including loss of data resulting from delays, delivery failures, wrong deliveries, and any and all service interruptions caused by Pro Host Cloud or our employees.
Backups and Data Loss
Your use of the Services is at your sole risk. HostGator’s backup service runs once a week and overwrites any of our previous backups. Only one week of backups are kept at a time. This service is provided only to shared and reseller accounts as a courtesy and may be modified or terminated at any time at Pro Host Cloud’s sole discretion. Pro Host Cloud does not maintain backups of dedicated accounts. Pro Host Cloud is not responsible for files and/or data residing on your account. You agree to take full responsibility for all files and data transferred and to maintain all appropriate backup of files and data stored on Pro Host Cloud’s servers.
Any shared account using more than 20 gigs of disk space will be removed from our off site weekly backup with the exception of databases continuing to be backed up. All data will continue to be mirrored to a secondary drive to help protect against data loss in the event of a drive failure.

Force Majeure
Neither party is liable for any default or delay in the performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement (other than failure to make payments when due) if such default or delay is caused, directly or indirectly, by forces beyond such party’s reasonable control, including, without limitation, fire, flood, acts of God, labor disputes, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, interruptions of transportation or communications, supply shortages or the failure of any third party to perform any commitment relative to the production or delivery of any equipment or material required for such party to perform its obligations hereunder.
