Anti Spam & Bulk Email

You understand that unsolicited mass emailing (also referred to as spam, unsolicited bulk email, and unsolicited commercial email) or the use of automated scripts to post comments or links to multiple, non-client owned blogs, forums, guestbooks, Internet messengers, phones or other internet connected media is strictly forbidden. The client agrees to pay for any fees or damage in result of the spam within their account. We reserve the right to suspend or cancel any or all accounts without notice, due to the violation of this policy. If you use our service for unsolicited mass mailing (also referred to as spam) you will be violating of our terms of service and no refund will be issued. All IP's on the GYBO  network are strictly monitored.

 

The service you are receiving may include the ability to send and receive electronic mail. Use of your electronic mail account to send unsolicited commercial messages is prohibited. Mass electronic messages or "mail-bombing" (sending mass unsolicited mail or deliberately sending very large attachments to one recipient) are prohibited. Forging electronic mail headers (addresses) is also strictly prohibited regardless of commercial content. Use of electronic mail to harass or intimidate other users is prohibited. Spamming, sending unsolicited commercial email messages or unsolicited bulk messaging to advertise, offer, sell or buy any goods or services for any business or individual is strictly prohibited (this also includes opt-out email's). In response to a complaint, GYBO has the discretion to determine from all of the evidence it receives whether the intended recipients were from an "opt-in" email list. Shared server accounts are also prohibited from sending solicited (e.g. opt-in) email via mailing lists (or combinations of mailing lists or other programmatic methods) that include more that 250 total accounts, unless special arrangements have been made in writing with GYBO  which specify the terms and conditions of such mailings. If arrangements have been made for a larger out-in mailing lists, and, in the sole opinion of GYBO these mailing lists cause server performance problems of any kind, then GYBO may, at its sole discretion, remove or demand the removal of the mailing list at any time.

 

Account Auditing

GYBO  may regularly audit server accounts for abuse, if any of the abuse policies in these terms of service are violated, you may be required as determined by us, to pay a fine to GYBO  for unintended or deliberate violations as compensation for damages. In addition, GYBO may take legal action in response to any acts of abuse which may result in additional financial penalties. GYBO reserves the right to transfer any content that is perceived (at the sole discretion of GYBO ) to be in violation of these terms of service to the appropriate authorities for prosecution, enforcement and/or legal action.

In addition, we use fraud prevention software to screen new orders for previous fraudulent activity and report existing clients who violate our Terms of Service. In case of a violation, your details may be reported to fraud screening services using one-way hashed information.

You will submit accurate and current information on all registration forms on the server. You will not impersonate any person or entity, misrepresent your affiliation with a person or entity or misrepresent the origin of any materials distributed through the service.

We reserve the right to refuse or cancel any service at our sole discretion. All clients are expected to pay their invoices promptly. Accounts that are past invoice due for 3 days will be subject to a temporary deactivation (suspension) of their service. Accounts past the due in excess of 5 days will be cancelled (terminated). See below 'Payment & Renewal' section for more information on product renewals. Any accounts that violate of our terms of service will not be eligible for a refund, even if your service is within the money back guarantee period.

 

Resource Abuse

Any attempts to undermine or cause harm to a server is strictly prohibited and may result in account suspension or termination without a refund.

For our shared hosting packages - if an activity causes excessive server load, and this load is deemed by technical support staff to be at risk of crashing or handing the server, the account may be temporarily suspended or have the specific scripts disabled/removed in order to prevent and/or stop the excessive load. This action may be taken without notice to the customer, although we will make best effort to contact the customer first. GYBO will work with you to offer you the best options available. We do not allow our shared hosting plans to be used as backup storage and as such we reserve the right to delete any archive files which begin with the name "backup-".

 

Domain Name Registration & Renewals

Whilst renewal notices are sent these should only be considered as reminders, these reminders are not part of the service. It is the client’s ultimate responsibility for domain renewal. Due to the third party nature of domain renewals, GYBO will take no responsibility for technical errors that delay or fail to renew domains. The client must ensure their domain has renewed correctly. The client has 30 days to notice errors with domain renewals. The client accepts that whether or not GYBO has successfully contacted the client GYBO cannot be held liable if the Client fails to renew the domain prior to the expiry date.

The company shall notify the client of renewal notifications as they are received by the company from the relevant registration authority. These notifications will be delivered to the email address provided by the client on their initial order unless an updated email address has been provided and this update has been confirmed by the company. The company shall not be liable for losses whether financial or otherwise caused by the clients failure to notify us of changes to the email address or other details relating to the specific order that caused the loss.

To ensure uninterrupted operation of the domain renewals should be placed via GYBO at least 7 working days prior to the expiry date. Due to the distributed nature of the domain name system it can take up to this long for a renewal to be fully processed and accepted.

All domains are renewed on an annual basis, we will send out reminder emails 30 days, 14 days, 7 days and 1 day before expiry. We will send the emails to the email address on the account, it is the registrants responsibility to make sure their contact details are up to date. GYBO takes no responsibility if your domain renewal fails due to your contact details being incorrect. If you do not wish to renew a domain please make sure you contact us a minimum of 14 days before your domain expires by emailing us at sales@gybo .uk. Alternatively, you can set your domain to auto renew, this can be managed through the client portal area. All domains will be auto renewed 14 days in advance of the domain name expiring and will be billed 28 days in advance.

 

Data Storage & Account Backups

Clients must be aware that it is their responsibility to frequently backup any information that they host on our servers. We are not responsible for any files, scripts, coding or data that may be lost, corrupted or abused in a server-related issue. GYBO is not responsible for recovering any damaged or lost files, regardless of the plan and options purchased. Clients are responsible for making back-up files in connection with their use of the services they have purchased. GYBO may offer complimentary backup services however these are provided on a best endeavours basis and we make no guarantee of their availability if a backup is required.

Although our technical support team will try their best to resolve any technical issues you have, we are not responsible for correcting system software and/or server faults caused by your website or software installations (including, but not limited to, incompatible upgrades), but may offer to correct these faults at current labour rates.

 

Payment & Renewal

Full payment is required in advance before hosting service is established. You grant GYBO the right to debit your PayPal or Credit/Debit Card account you provided on the order form for the services you signed up for on a recurring basis until such service is cancelled by you in writing by using the cancellation form provided in the client area.

Invoices for the renewal of a product are generated automatically, via an automated system 7 days before your next payment is due. If payment is not received 3 days after the renewal date (after the renewal invoice becomes overdue), the service will enter a suspended state. After 5 days of your renewal invoice becoming overdue your account will be terminated. GYBO  will make best effort to contact you before the termination.

PayPal Subscriptions are the responsibility of the client. Until the subscription has been cancelled, GYBO still has the right to debit your PayPal account, even though it is automatic via PayPal. If you have cancelled your package, you need to make sure that you have cancelled your subscription. Refunds for not cancelling your subscription are at the discretion of GYBO.

Your account will be automatically renewed under the same time and fee structure unless you give written notice to GYBO  5 days before the renewal date that you do not wish to renew such account.
