20.) Changes to Terms

• Ucartz may modify these TOS at any time. Where a change is required by law or relates to the addition of a new service, extra functionality to existing service, security updates, or any other change that does not reduce your rights nor increase your responsibilities, the change takes immediate effect without prior notice.
• For other changes, we will provide notice via email or the client portal before the effective date. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
• No oral or informal clarification by either party modifies these TOS. Only a written amendment executed by authorized representatives has effect.

21.) Transfers and Migrations

• Complimentary migration window: on managed plans, including Managed VPS, we provide a free migration service to help transfer your website or service from your previous provider to Ucartz. You understand your website best. While we will make reasonable efforts to migrate site files and data, you are responsible for providing suitable access for data retrieval and for verifying the success of the migration. Our goal is to complete migrations within 72 hours, but timelines are not guaranteed. We may also assist with migrating emails, DNS records, and domain names where feasible, but uninterrupted or successful migration of these elements is not guaranteed.
• Incompatibilities: hosting environments differ. Data may be stored in incompatible or proprietary formats, making migration difficult or impossible in some cases.
• cPanel hosting and cPanel reseller hosting: migration to these plans is 100% free, with no fees and no 30-day limit. Our engineers move your cPanel accounts, files, databases and email for you. The other points in this section, including the abuse clause below, still apply.
• Eligibility period: on other plans, the complimentary migration service is valid for 30 days from your sign up date. After this period, transfer fees may apply. Ucartz is not responsible for lost or missing data during transfers to or from our service. Keep current backups in all situations.
• Unmanaged plans: free migration is not available for unmanaged hosting. If migration assistance is required, additional charges will apply.
• Control panel differences and manual moves: on Managed VPS, the complimentary migration includes moves between different control panels. On other services, migration charges may apply if the control panels differ or if a manual migration is required.
• Abuse of the complimentary service: the complimentary migration is for moving your own existing services to the plan you purchased. If we identify fraud or misuse, for example orders placed only to obtain free migration work, repeated or bulk migrations, moving data that belongs to other parties, or requests that are administration or development work presented as migration, we may decline the migration or charge for it at our standard Hire an Expert rates.

22.) Suspension or Disabling of Services

We may suspend or disable services for the following reasons:

• To diagnose or resolve technical problems or to make technical changes. We will attempt to notify you beforehand when feasible.
• To reflect changes in laws or regulatory requirements.
• When required by law, court order, or a competent authority.
• If we believe you have violated a material term of this Agreement or related policies.
• To address or resolve third party claims, takedown demands, or legal actions.
• To avoid financial loss or legal liability, including abuse, fraud, or security threats.

23.) Late Payment or Non Payment

• Suspension and restoration: unpaid invoices may result in suspension or termination of your account. Suspended accounts are restored after the outstanding invoice is paid. Access to data resumes upon restoration.
• Termination and data: if your account is terminated, data on the account will not be restored and a new account will be required. If you fail to renew on time, late fees may be charged on your invoice as applicable.
• New orders: we will not activate new orders or packages for customers with an outstanding balance.

24.) Account Termination

Your Ucartz hosting account can be terminated for the reasons below:

• You decide to discontinue. If you place a cancellation request with immediate termination during your subscription, your hosting account is suspended right away and terminated within 24 hours.
• Cancellation upon expiration. If you request discontinuation after your subscription expires, your hosting account is suspended at the end of the subscription and terminated within 24 hours after the expiration date.
• Failure to pay. If you do not pay fees owed, we may suspend or terminate the services and pursue collection costs, including arbitration and legal fees. Accounts are not reactivated until all outstanding amounts are settled. We are not liable for deleted content resulting from suspension or termination.
• Renewal not done in time. If you fail to renew on the due date, your hosting account is suspended after 24 hours and terminated within 72 hours after expiration.
• Violation of TOS or AUP. Material violations may lead to immediate suspension and termination upon notice of the violation.
• Potential fraud. Orders are screened by anti fraud systems. If verification information is requested and not provided, the account may be suspended and terminated immediately.
• Dispute or chargeback. We may suspend first and provide a 7 day window to resolve with Ucartz. If unresolved, termination may occur.
• Backups. Maintain your own backups. All files may be deleted from the server upon termination. Ucartz is not liable for such deletion.

25.) Third Party Products and Beneficiaries

Informal resolution. In the event of any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or related to this Agreement, the parties will use reasonable efforts to settle disputes. We will consult and negotiate in good faith to reach a mutually satisfactory resolution.

Product Appendices

Appendix A Shared Hosting and Reseller Hosting

A.1 Platform Limits per cPanel account unless plan states higher

The following caps apply to Shared and Reseller plans and may vary by tier. If your plan advertises higher values, those prevail.

• CPU and RAM: up to 1 vCPU core and up to 1 GB RAM per account (CloudLinux LVE)
• Entry Processes EP: 20
• Number of Processes nPROC: 100
• Disk IO: 10 MB per second
• File inode limit: 300,000

See the AUP for full resource rules, cron and database limits, and email rate limits.

A.2 Email Sending

• Shared Hosting: up to 100 outgoing emails per hour per cPanel account.
• Reseller end users: up to 25 outgoing emails per hour per cPanel account under the reseller.
• Bulk or marketing mail must use a dedicated SMTP or third party sender with consent and unsubscribe. SPF, DKIM, and where supported DMARC are required.

A.3 File Storage and Backups

• Shared space is for active website and application files only. Backup archives or general file storage are not permitted.
• Platform backups: daily database backups with 7 day retention and website files weekly with 1 day retention where offered. Emails or media are typically excluded from platform backups.
• If you generate cPanel backups, download and delete them promptly. Backup files left on the server may be purged during automated cleanup.

A.4 Bandwidth Regulations for Shared or Reseller

If an account exceeds its plan bandwidth limit, we will notify you. If you do not purchase extra bandwidth or upgrade and continue to exceed the limit, the account may be suspended until you take measures to prevent further overage or upgrade the plan. The account is reactivated in the following month or upon upgrade or payment of overage as applicable.

A.5 Unmetered or Unlimited Terms for Shared or Reseller

We do not set a fixed transfer cap for normal operation of a personal or small business website that complies with this Agreement. Plans described as unlimited or unmetered do not include a limitless entitlement to CPU, memory, IO, processes, inodes, databases, or email sending. Use remains subject to the AUP, CloudLinux limits, and fair use on a multitenant platform. If your usage or content risks platform stability, performance, or other customers’ experience, we may ask you to optimize, reduce usage, or upgrade to VPS or Dedicated. We may rate limit, restrict, or suspend the account if the impact continues. Examples of non typical use that may trigger action include file distribution, media streaming from Shared hosting, backup repositories, or high concurrency workloads.

A.6 Reseller Responsibilities

• No reselling on Shared: using a Shared Hosting account to resell web hosting is not allowed. To resell, you must purchase a Reseller Hosting plan.
• Pass through obligations: resellers must ensure each end user complies with the TOS, AUP, SLA, and data protection terms.
• Support boundary: resellers provide first line customer service, billing, and technical support to their end users. Ucartz supports the reseller, not the end user directly.
• Accountability: resellers are responsible for content stored or transferred under their reseller accounts and for their users’ actions. We may hold a reseller responsible for activities from its clients that violate law or this Agreement.
• Indemnity: we are not liable for acts or omissions of resellers. Resellers agree to indemnify Ucartz against claims brought by their customers resulting from reseller actions or omissions.
• Unlimited counts in reseller hosting: if a Reseller Hosting plan is marketed with unlimited accounts, domains, addon domains, email accounts, or similar counts, unlimited means no preset cap for normal operation. It is not infinite. Use remains subject to the AUP, CloudLinux limits, and fair use on the shared platform. We may ask you to optimize or upgrade, or we may restrict or suspend if usage affects platform stability or other customers.
• Plan changes: we may review and modify reseller plans when necessary. Changes take effect when posted or on a later effective date we designate.

Appendix B VPS and Dedicated Servers

• Email sending: default limit 1,000 outgoing emails per hour per VPS or Cloud instance. Bulk or marketing mail must use a dedicated SMTP or third party sender with consent and unsubscribe. Reputation safeguards apply including SPF, DKIM, DMARC, and rDNS or PTR. No spam complaints.
• Dedicated Servers have no fixed outgoing email limit. Spam, unsolicited mail and other mail abuse are prohibited under AUP sections 3 and 7.
• Provisioning: VPS is deployed automatically once payment is received and the order is verified. If an order is flagged for a security or fraud check, we ask for verification before we deploy, and this can take up to 4 to 6 business days. Dedicated servers are delivered within 2 to 46 business hours, depending on the location and server type.
• Business hours and business days mean the working hours and working days of our billing office in India (IST), excluding public holidays. Delivery times stated in business hours or business days are counted in those hours only.
• Root or Administrator access is provided. You are responsible for OS and application security on unmanaged plans.
• Managed scope includes OS patching, hardening, monitoring, and incident response for covered components. Custom stacks may require an SOW.
• Security testing images: Kali Linux VPS is offered for authorized security testing only and must follow TOS §14 and AUP §5. Testing is limited to assets you own or control with written authorization and all applicable laws.
• We monitor CPU, RAM, disk, and network at node and edge. We may throttle or suspend VMs that degrade node stability and will notify you when possible.
• Backups are not included by default. Paid options may be available. You must maintain tested backups.
• Failed hardware will be replaced with equivalent or newer parts. Compatibility with all custom software is not guaranteed after refresh.

B.7 IP addresses with the server (Dedicated Servers)

• No IP switching after delivery. Once the server is delivered, the assigned IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are final. We do not swap, rotate, or replace IPs on request, and we do not move IPs between servers.
• Exceptions. The only exceptions are upstream required renumbering, compliance actions, or abuse mitigation where we decide a change is necessary. In such cases, you must update your systems and DNS accordingly. No credits are issued for IP changes made under these exceptions.

B.8 Server location (Dedicated Servers)

• Choose location at order time. You must select the desired datacenter location during checkout.
• No post delivery location change. After provisioning, we do not move or migrate dedicated servers to a different location.
• Need a different location. If you require another location, place a new order in that location, migrate your data, and cancel the old server per the normal cancellation terms.
• Notes. Facility location is not a guarantee of third party IP geolocation records. You are responsible for any updates needed to third party geolocation services.

Appendix C Streaming and Broadcasting

• Content rights: you are responsible for rights to all content you broadcast. We act on lawful takedowns and may disable content or streams that violate law or AUP.
• Bitrate, slots, and transfer: plan specific caps apply. When slots are full, new connections are refused. When transfer is exhausted, we may throttle, suspend, or bill overage.
• AutoDJ, DVR, and storage: libraries and recordings count toward storage quotas. We may delete files that exceed quota or violate policies. Export recordings you want to keep.
• Relays and restreams: relaying third party stations or channels requires written permission. Restreaming to social platforms must follow those platforms’ policies. We may restrict high risk categories without proof of rights.
• Security and abuse: keep source passwords and stream keys secret. Rotate after staff changes. We may rate limit API calls or metadata updates and mitigate attacks to protect platform stability.

Appendix D Domains

• Registrations, transfers, renewals, auto renew rules, expiry handling, and redemption follow ICANN and registry policies. Keep registrant contact email valid. Redemption or restoration may require registry fees when available.

Appendix E Hire an Expert (Tech Ops)

• Engagement models: hourly, retainer, or SOW with milestones.
• Deliverables and IP: license for your internal use after payment. Our pre existing tools and know how remain ours. We may reuse generalized learnings that do not reveal your confidential information.
• Confidentiality: we keep your confidential information secret and use it only to deliver the engagement. NDA available on request.
• Warranty and support: 30 days for defects in delivered scope. Later environmental changes or third party updates are out of scope.
• Termination: either party may end for convenience with written notice, subject to payment for work performed. We will return or delete credentials and materials upon request, subject to legal retention.
