We are part of the family under the flag of InterNation Holdings Ltd (UK Reg nr 14957085, with Registered address 167-169 Great Portland Street, 5th Floor, London, W1W 5PF).
Refunds
If you signed up for a product with a refund policy, it stipulates the number of days eligible for a refund. This is usually 30 days from initial sign-up date, unless specified otherwise.
To be eligible for a return, you must have signed up within 30 days preceding your cancellation.
Sale items
Only regular priced items may be refunded. Sale items cannot be refunded unless specified in our correspondence to you.
Payments
Your services are payable upfront unless specified otherwise.
Monthly Hosting, Business Class Email etc is payable upfront for the coming month.
Should you have opted for annual payment, your payment is required upfront for the coming year. This is also true for Domain Name Registrations.
Any once-off service, such as web design, maintenance or development has its payment terms specified in your quotation.
Should you pay by credit card or InstantEFT or similar, your payment information is processed and/or stored by an External service provider. Your card or banking information is not received by us at all. We use only reputable payment processors such as Yoco and/or PayFast for transactions in South Africa (ZAR), and other reputable processors for transactions in GBP and USD. International transactions may be processed by international payment processors. Examples of reputable international payment processors may include PayPal and Stripe. We intend to add Stripe for UK and international payments in the near future.
All payments are processed directly by the payment processor provider under their own terms and conditions.
Backups
Although we keep backups of your website for a period of 30 days, it remains your responsibility to create and keep regular backups of your site and/or content. Our backups are provided as a courtesy and we cannot be held liable for any loss or damage of your website, emails or other data.
Upon notice of cancellation we provide you with the transfer code of your domain name, to be transferred to your new service provider. At such time we flag your account for cancellation and any backups of your website and/or other data will cease to exist within 30 days.
If your service was discontinued for any reason more than 30 days ago, feel free to reach out to support and we will attempt to find a backup older than 30 days. It is rare that backups are available longer than 30 days, but may be possible.
Again, the responsibility to keep recent backups is completely yours.
