1. Definitions

For the purposes of these Terms, the following definitions apply:

2. Account Registration & Eligibility

Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years of age and capable of entering into a legally binding contract to use our Services. By registering, you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements.

Account Accuracy

You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and to keep your account information up to date. Providing false or misleading information may result in immediate account suspension or termination.

Account Security

You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials. You must notify us immediately at support@buzzinghost.com if you suspect any unauthorised access to your account. We are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to safeguard your credentials.

One Account Per Customer

Unless expressly permitted, each Customer may maintain only one primary account. We reserve the right to merge or close duplicate accounts.

3. Services

Service Provision

We will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Services as described on our website and in your account. Service features, specifications, and pricing may vary by plan. You are responsible for selecting a plan appropriate for your needs.

Shared Hosting

Shared hosting accounts are provided on a multi-tenant infrastructure. You agree not to use excessive server resources (CPU, RAM, I/O, bandwidth) in a manner that adversely affects other customers. We reserve the right to throttle or suspend accounts that negatively impact server performance.

Managed VPS & Cloud Servers

Managed VPS and cloud server services are provided with specified resource allocations as detailed in your plan. Buzzing Host will manage the server infrastructure, apply security patches, and ensure platform availability. You retain responsibility for your applications, code, and data.

Domain Registration

Domain registration services are subject to the terms and policies of the relevant registry authority (e.g., Verisign, Nominet). We act as a registrar or reseller. Domain registrations are non-refundable once processed. You are responsible for keeping your WHOIS contact information accurate.

Email Services

Email accounts are provided subject to the storage limits of your plan. We reserve the right to disable outbound mail from accounts found to be sending spam or violating our Acceptable Use Policy.

Service Availability

We strive to maintain high availability across our platform. Scheduled maintenance will be communicated in advance where practicable. Unplanned outages may occur and we will endeavour to restore services as quickly as possible. Please refer to our StackStatus page for real-time network status.

4. Domains

Free Domain Offer

Each hosting account is entitled to one (1) free domain name, including free yearly renewals, for as long as that domain remains hosted with Buzzing Host. Should the associated hosting account be cancelled, downgraded to a plan that does not qualify for a free domain, or the domain otherwise moved away from Buzzing Host, standard registration and renewal fees will apply going forward.

One Free Domain Per Account

Only one (1) free domain is permitted per hosting account, regardless of plan type or tier. Customers wishing to register or manage multiple domains must purchase additional domains separately as described below.

Additional Domains

Additional domains may be purchased at standard rates and added to hosting accounts that support the hosting of multiple websites. Availability of multi-site hosting depends on your plan; please refer to your plan details or contact support to confirm eligibility.

Domain Ownership

All domains obtained through Buzzing Host, or transferred into Buzzing Host, remain the property of Buzzing Host. This applies to free domains provided as part of a hosting plan as well as additional domains purchased through our platform.
