Disproportionate loads placed on the server.

While our shared services are suitable for personal or small business customers, there comes a time for some websites when they are better suited for a larger plan, which allows for more dedicated CPU and memory resources. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to discontinue service to any customer with a website or other hosted data that takes up more than 8% of the resources of the server's CPU for longer than 180 seconds.

If this becomes necessary, you can either upgrade your hosting package, or request a pro-rated refund of the amounts you have paid in advance for the services. Due to the severity of this, and our ability to act quickly to correct these situations to avoid server issues, we will do everything reasonably feasible to provide you with a warning prior to taking your site offline, but we accept no obligation to do so.

Disclaimer of Warranties

You may have noticed that up to this point these terms of service have been kind of easy to read and understand. But our lawyers tell us that this section, dealing in the disclaimer of warranties, has to retain its legalese style. Sorry about that. SHOOTORDER EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS.

SHOOTORDER DOES NOT WARRANT, NOR MAKE ANY REPRESENTATIONS REGARDING THE USE, OR RESULTS OF, ANY OF THE SERVICES IT PROVIDES, IN TERMS OF THEIR CORRECTNESS, ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE. Some jurisdictions do not allow the disclaimer of implied warranties, in which event that foregoing disclaimer may not apply to you.

Limitation of Liability

Here is another section that has to retain its legalese. Simply stated, what this section is saying is that if something goes wrong, Shootorder cannot be held liable for it. IN NO EVENT SHALL SHOOTORDER BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFIT OR GOODWILL, FOR ANY MATTER, WHETHER SUCH LIABILITY IS ASSERTED ON THE BASIS OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), BREACH OF WARRANTIES, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ANY BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ITS INCORPORATED AGREEMENTS AND POLICIES, YOUR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE OR SERVICES, YOUR LOSS OF DATA OR FILES OR DAMAGES RELATED TO DATABASE CORRUPTION OR DELETION OF WEBSITE CONTENTS OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF SHOOTORDER HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

In those states, our liability is limited to the full extent permitted by law. You agree that in no event shall our maximum aggregate liability exceed the total amount paid by you for the services in dispute purchased from us, or, in the event of liability of Shootorder due to your enrollment in the affiliate program.

Governing Law and Choice of Form

The laws of India will govern this Agreement, without reference to rules governing choice of laws. Any action relating to this Agreement must be brought in the court located in Hyderabad, Telangana, INDIA, When These Terms Take Effect

What do you mean by "Unlimited Disk Space and Unlimited Data Transfer"?

There are no set limits on the disk space or data transfer (bandwidth) that we provide in plans marked "unlimited". We want you to have the resources you need to build a great online presence.

Still, we do need to be sure that we're providing all of our customers with optimum service. As such, we do require all customers to be fully compliant with our Terms of Service and utilize disk space and bandwidth related to the normal operation of a personal or small business website.

While it is rare, we may need to put constraints on accounts that are adversely affecting other customers or otherwise utilizing or abusing resources beyond what would be expected of a personal or small business website.

What will happen to accounts that don't comply with the Terms of Service or go beyond normal usage? Through our NMC (Network Monitoring Center), we maintain a variety of human and automated controls to monitor customer and server activity. If the NMC identifies an account that is not in compliance with our Terms or that has the potential to negatively impact the performance of our systems, we may need to temporarily suspend that account. Of course, we will notify the administrative contact for the account and work with that customer to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.

The most common situations involve customers who use their accounts for storage of files (particularly multimedia files) that are not linked off of their websites. One thing to remember is that Shootorder provides the disk space and bandwidth required to operate a personal or small business site. Our services may not be used to store or archive electronic files that are not available through the website.

What is "normal" usage?

Normal usage means that you operate a personal or small business website that utilizes resources in a manner similar to most of our other customers. For example, the system requirements of large corporations are not equal to those of small businesses and their resource requirements would not be considered normal for our architecture. Another example would be the storage of large numbers of video or audio files that may be associated with a site, but require more resources to support than a normal personal or business website would.

Why are the normal usage guidelines in place?

Shootorder offers hosting through a shared environment, therefore, each site has the ability to impact the performance of thousands of other sites. While our pooled architecture minimizes this risk in comparison to the more common single-server design, we rarely experience disruptions that result from customer activity. This is an unusual occurrence, but one which we manage carefully to protect our users from service degradations. Still, we want our customers to understand that there are guidelines in place before they purchase our services.

Are there any usage guidelines for Reseller Hosting?

Unlimited Domain Hosting in our reseller plans has its limits in the number of domains that can be hosted, wherein the limit is at Shootorder's sole discretion. We may need to put a limit on the number of domains in a reseller account that are adversely affecting our servers performance.

This agreement becomes effective once you submit your order with us or open an account with us for web hosting services of any kind (shared, reseller, vps, dedicated, etc.) or open an affiliate account. If you are an existing customer, and you do not agree with the terms herein, please cancel your account. Otherwise, if you sign up for or continue to use the services, you agree to what is written here. If you have any questions regarding these terms of service, feel free to call us for clarification.

By using Shootorder.com you agree to the above Terms of Service.
