Renewal invoices are generated 30 days in advance and sent to your registered e-mail address on file. It is your responsibility to ensure this e-mail address is kept up to date and can receive emails from us.
It is important that we receive payment on time. All services must be paid for by the due date shown on the invoice unless a written adjustment has been agreed upon. Failure to complete payment after this time will result in an automatic reminder when the invoice is overdue, and automatic account suspension should the invoice remain unpaid for more than 3 days. This applies to all hosting accounts and virtual servers. Domain names expire on the day immediately after their renewal date.
If an invoice is unpaid, the related service will be suspended until such time that payment is received and you inform us by email that you have paid. At this point, we will use all reasonable endeavors to restore service within 24 hours.
We reserve the right to alter our prices at any time and will notify you of any alteration by providing you with a written notice.

Batch processing, video encoding/transcoding, web crawling/spidering, archiving, and online backup systems and any system for purposes other than hosting a website are not permitted on our shared hosting servers. However, you may use such tools on a dedicated server. We reserve the right to enact defensive movements to maintain the stability of our systems for all clients.
If you believe your website may be susceptible to high or otherwise abnormal usage you must contact us to discuss the suitability of your hosting environment.
Cancellation notices for all services must be given at a minimum of 24 hours in advance of the next billing date, with the exception of dedicated servers for which we require a cancellation notice a minimum of 30 days before the next billing date. Refunds will be given for every whole unused prepaid month. Refunds will be paid in the form of a credit to your billing account. No cash refunds will be granted unless a payment has been taken in error.

Under no circumstances will we tolerate threatening or abusive behavior towards our staff. Should this occur, we reserve the right to terminate the hosting agreement with immediate effect.

Any further correspondence must then be sent by email or support ticket.
Should we feel that your needs would be better served by another provider, we reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to terminate the hosting agreement. Where it is reasonable to do so, we will provide 30 days' notice of termination and provide a backup of all website content and email.
Termination of this agreement does not affect your pre-existing liability, if any, or affect our right to recover damages or pursue any other remedy in respect of any breach of this agreement by you.

Business Continuity Plan All of our employees are capable of working remotely and no sensitive or business-critical information is stored ‘on-premise. We use a hosted VoIP provider which means calls can be re-routed in the event of any problems with our main office. In the event of a critical failure in one of the clouds hosting providers we use, we would revert to our backup systems using an alternative provider. In a worst-case scenario, our main website and customer panel could be up and running within an hour of a critical failure.
It is a requirement that you provide us with a valid name and address when purchasing a service from Go Business Hosting. Our online ordering system will not let users order items without providing a valid name and address, and our merchant provider will check the details (cardholder name and address) against those provided for the registration at the time of ordering. We will validate personal users using billing data (name match the card on file, address digits given to match the card given),
In circumstances where we don’t have access to cardholder information where the validity of the data provided is in question we would ask for two copies of ID out of:- Passport Driving license Recent Utility Bill or bank statement(not for a mobile phone)
For businesses, we can validate data using the official companies house register (company name, address). Alternatively, the business can provide a utility bill, bank/merchant statement, or a letter from HMRC dated within the last three months to provide verified proof of name and address.
Verified/validated data will be stored in our online ordering/billing system which is a PCI compliant solution, but the copies of identification used to perform the validation would be destroyed once the validation process has been completed.
If we are unable to contact a registrant where there was a problem with data verification, we would place a data lock on the domain name manually once all attempts to contact the registrant had failed. This will be within 30 days of originally being notified.
Renewal reminders are sent by our automated billing system 30 days before the renewal date by way of a Pro-forma invoice for the domain renewal. We will then send another reminder 3 days before the renewal date. Providing the customer has consented (either during the order form, or subsequently in our panel) the system will attempt to charge the card on file and then renew the domain name automatically on the renewal date. If the automated renewal fails for any reason (card details not correct, insufficient funds) the customer would receive a notification to let them know to log in to renew the domain at this time.
3rd Party Domain Terms Domain names are usually subject to the registration terms and conditions set by the relevant registry as well as the registration terms of Go Business Hosting.
Where possible links to the relevant 3rd party terms and dispute resolution policies are included below, if you have any queries regarding these please raise a support ticket and we’ll be glad to assist where possible.
