Web Design & Development Policy:
Web design and development projects require extensive resources, consumes our time and incurs internal expenses. Therefore once a payment or deposit is made, it is non-refundable. Payments for custom design projects (i.e. custom logo designs and branding projects, full website designs, individual page mockups and smaller design components within a website, etc.) and custom development projects (i.e. php programming, WordPress CMS custom development, WordPress Plugin custom development, etc.) are made to us in increments as a courtesy to the client as well as discounted for those who agree to pay in full, but if a project gets cancelled, delayed or postponed by the client, then all monies paid will be retained by Philzy Webhosting Technology and if applicable, an additional cost will be charged to the client for all work completed beyond what was already paid for shall be paid by the client. All projects that are completed as defined as the scope of the work are non-refundable.

Debit orders that return as unpaid will attract a R50 administration fee. The account should then be settled by EFT or Credit Card, no further debit orders will run on the account until the overdue amount has been settled.

Late Payment

It is your responsibility to ensure that your payment information is up to date, and that all invoices are paid on time. You agree that until and unless you notify PhilzyWebhosting TechnologyPty of your desire to cancel any or all services received (by the proper means listed in the appropriate section of the Terms & Conditions), those services will be billed on a recurring basis, unless otherwise stated in writing by PhilzyWebhosting TechnologyPty. PhilzyWebhosting TechnologyPty reserves the right to allocate payments to the oldest outstanding invoice on your account. PhilzyWebhosting TechnologyPty reserves the right to bill your credit card or billing information on file with us.

PhilzyWebhosting TechnologyPty provides a 10 day grace period from the time the invoice is due and when it must be paid. Any invoice that is overdue for 10 days will result in account and service suspension until account balance has been paid in full. Access to the account will not be restored until all outstanding payments have been received. We do not charge a reactivation fee.

Non-payment of outstanding service fee invoices will result in termination of the hosting service. There is no guarantee that a backup will be available.

Cancellation

Cancellations must be done via your client area: www.clientzone.philzytech.co.za. You have the option of cancelling your account immediately or at the end of the billing period. If you choose to cancel the account immediately then your account will be terminated from our servers on receipt of the cancellation. Cancellation of a subscription does not cancel any outstanding invoices. All outstanding invoices are still due.

Domain Services

We use the services of a third party registrar to register domains. The registration is subject to the terms of the relevant registrar. Registration, maintenance, or transfer of a domain name is subject to the terms of the relevant registry governing the domain name.

When registering a domain name, it is not your property, it cannot be “owned” by anyone. We will register the domain in the name of the “Registrant” and they will have full control of the domain. We cannot guarantee the registration of a domain name, we will make every effort to register the domain that you choose.

We will not be held responsible if you give us incomplete or inaccurate information that will lead to a delay in the registration process. If you are acting on behalf of the domain owner, you agree to register the domain in your customers name. It is important to ensure that the correct person or entity is disclosed as the registrant. All registrant details must be true and accurate, you are not allowed to prevent a domain owner from moving their domain away should they choose to do so.

We will only act on instructions of the account holder or other authorised users on the account. We act on your instructions to the extent that those instructions are possible and lawful.

All domain registrations are final. Domain names cannot be modified once they have been registered, a new domain will need to be registered.

You warrant that:

⚬ All information provided in the registration of the domain is complete and accurate.
⚬ You are entitled to register the domain name.
⚬ If you are not the domain owner, that you have permissions from the owner to act on their behalf.
⚬ You are not breaking any law or violating any Intellectual Property Rights by registering this domain.
⚬ The domain will not be used in a malicious way.

We will do our utmost to prevent expiry of your domain name, it remains your responsibility to ensure that the domain does not expire. Our billing system has been programmed to automatically generate your domain renewal invoice unless you expressly tell us not to do so, in which case the domain will expire. We try and send reminders before expiry dates. It may occur that reminders are not sent due to events beyond our control, we will not be held liable.

You indemnify us against any loss or damage that we may suffer arising from registration of your domain name.

Domain Cost Refund Policy

Please note that fees payable for domain registration and renewal costs are non-refundable. PhilzyWebhosting TechnologyPty accepts no responsibility for any typing errors (spelling mistakes) you make when ordering a domain name with us. Once a domain name has passed its expiry date there is no guarantee that we are able to renew the domain, additional charges might apply in these cases.

Premium Domains

As various registries worldwide mark high value domains as premium domains, these domains cost more. We will make every effort to apply pricing of a premium domain prior to checkout however this may not always be possible. Should the Customer have paid for domain which is a premium domain / marked / reflected as premium, the Customer will be given the opportunity to pay the premium domain name fee or a refund of the price paid will be given to the customer.

Unlimited Traffic/Storage Policy

Our unlimited plans do not have set limits on bandwidth and disk storage. Instead, we have a fair use policy which goes as follows.

Bandwidth and disk storage are unlimited as long as:

⚬ they used as an integral part of your website,
⚬ you are not intentionally abusing the service by using excessive bandwidth or disk storage,
⚬ you are not violating our terms and conditions, and
⚬ you are not impeding our capability to provide other service to other customers.

Email storage under Unlimited packages is subject to the following:

⚬ we do not allow long term storage of emails, we reserve the right to remove emails older than 12 months,
⚬ we do not allow the use of unattended mailboxes, if an account has unread emails older than 180 days it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted,
⚬ emails stored in ‘spam’ or ‘deleted’ folders may be deleted where such email are over 30 days old.

In other words, if you are adding content (images, files, text etc) to your site and using the service in the way it is intended to be used, then we will not limit the amount of bandwidth and disk storage your site is consuming.

Our intention is that, as long as both parties are being fair, you should not have to worry about bandwidth or disk storage limits. We’ll take care of these sorts of issues so you can concentrate on growing your site.

If, however, you are attempting to take advantage of the service by distributing or storing large files, PDF’s or images, streaming excessive video or hosting music or something similar, then we will request that you cease doing so.
