3. Subject Matter of Agreement

3.1. The Provider undertakes to provide the Client with hosting services and related services in the volume and on the terms provided for by the selected plan, subject to timely payment.

3.2. Services are provided on an "as is" basis. The Provider does not guarantee that the services will fully meet the individual expectations of the Client or be compatible with their software. The Client assumes all risks associated with the use of services, including their configuration, administration and integration with their own systems.

3.3. Network Characteristics

  1. The declared network connection speed is a maximum value on a shared basis (shared bandwidth). Actual throughput may depend on node load, routing, and factors beyond the Provider’s control.
  2. Guaranteed baseline throughput is verified only by tests performed within the same country as the server’s data center (country of presence). Cross-border tests, last-mile limitations, ISP shaping, or peering policies outside the server’s country are not evidence of non-compliance with the plan.
  3. Client measurements (including Speedtest or similar services) reflect the specific conditions of a particular path and endpoint. They cannot serve as grounds for termination, refund, or server replacement unless they match the above verification scope and methodology.
  4. The Provider does not guarantee continuous delivery at the maximum rate stated in the plan.

4. Rights and Obligations of the Parties

4.1. The Provider undertakes to:

  1. Strive to ensure service availability of at least 99.8% per month (SLA), except for planned and emergency work, force majeure circumstances, DDoS attacks and failures of third-party data centers or upstream providers.
  2. Provide technical support through the ticket system 24/7. Response time depends on the request category and is not a guaranteed troubleshooting time.
  3. Notify Clients of planned work no later than 72 hours before it begins by publishing in the billing panel or through other official communication channels.
  4. Take reasonable measures to protect infrastructure and provided services, but not guarantee absolute protection from cyber attacks, equipment failures or disruptions in global communication networks.

  1. Comply with legislation, the terms of this offer and AUP.
  2. Not use services for:
    1. spam, phishing, malware distribution, botnet exploitation;

    3. hosting scam projects, fraudulent schemes, "gray" payment systems or other activities that may entail legal risks for the Provider;
    4. downloading or distributing torrents, storing and distributing illegal content, including copyright-infringing content;
    5. any actions that violate the laws of the jurisdictions where data centers are located, as well as international sanctions and export control rules.
  3. Take into account that the use of servers as VPN services is allowed, but not encouraged due to possible excessive load on the network. In case of negative impact on infrastructure, the Provider has the right to limit or suspend service provision.
  4. Understand that projects that pose risks to the legality of the Provider's activities may be deemed undesirable and suspended with Client notification pending clarification of circumstances. Data hosted on such services is not subject to recovery.
  5. Pay for services in a timely and complete manner.
  6. Independently ensure the safety of logins, passwords, access keys and other authorization data, as well as bear responsibility for all actions performed using their account.

  4. Consider notifications proper if they are published publicly on the Provider's website, in the billing panel or sent to contact information specified by the Client.
  5. Require KYC/AML verification, as well as provision of additional documents to confirm identity or legality of activities. The Provider has the right to suspend or terminate service provision until successful completion of verification.
  6. Limit or filter traffic, suspend operation of individual Client services or resources to prevent threats to platform stability and security, as well as to comply with legislation or partner requirements (data centers, upstream providers, payment systems).
