Koboh Hosting provides web hosting to many clients, and we have a responsibility to protect each client and to provide the best services available. The following guidelines were designed to ensure these obligations are met.
This AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into between Koboh Ltd (“Host”) and you (“Client”) (each being referred to individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties”). By registering for an account with KOboh Hosting you agree to all of the terms and conditions contained in this agreement:
The Host agrees to provide Client with services for hosting of a site on the World Wide Web portion of the Internet (the “Web Site”) as set forth or described in the Pricing Schedule contained on this site. Host shall provide the Hosting Services so that the Web Site is accessible to third parties via the World Wide Web portion of the Internet as specified herein. Except as expressly provided herein, Client agrees that Host is responsible only for providing the Hosting Services, and Host is not responsible for providing any services or performing any tasks not specifically set forth in the Pricing Schedule. At the time of execution of this Agreement, to the extent that Client wishes to receive from Host Additional Services the arrangements for their provision shall be set forth in a separate addendum to this Agreement which is duly executed by the Parties (the “Services Addendum”), and the Services Addendum shall be incorporated into, and become a part of this Agreement. (The Hosting Services and the Additional Services will hereinafter be referred to collectively as the “Services”).
Client shall be responsible for maintaining its own content via FTP (file transfer protocol) or the control panel file manager. Client shall be responsible for keeping and maintaining backups of their web site content and any other data (such as email) in their hosting account space.
The Web Site shall be accessible to third parties via the World Wide Web portion of the Internet twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven (7) days a week, except for scheduled maintenance and required repairs, and except for any loss or interruption of Hosting Services due to causes beyond the control of Host or which are not reasonably foreseeable by Host, including, but not limited to, interruption or failure of telecommunication or digital transmission links and Internet slow-downs or failures. In the event of any loss or interruption of Hosting Services, Client’s sole and exclusive remedy and Host’s sole and exclusive liability for any loss or interruption of Hosting Services shall be as follows: for loss or interruption of Hosting Services which is due to (i) causes other than scheduled maintenance and required repairs, or (ii) causes beyond the control of Host, or (iii) causes which are not reasonably foreseeable by Host, including, but not limited to, interruption or failure of telecommunication or digital transmission links and Internet slowdowns or failures, which loss or interruption of Hosting Services exceeds a continual period of twenty-four (24) hours, Client shall receive a credit against future Hosting Services equal to a pro rata portion of Hosting Services fees for the period of downtime.

Any attempt to undermine or cause harm to a server, or customer, of FCS Websites is strictly prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to:
Accounts that are found to have such software uploaded to their web space are subject to immediate suspension and/or termination without notice.
We recommend that domain names are purchased by the Client from a domain registration company to ensure the company details are correct and the Client has full access to their domain name settings.
Host shall not be liable for any domain-name disputes which Client may enter into or otherwise encounter. Such disputes shall be governed by the relevant ICANN dispute procedures adopted by the domain-name registrar with which Client’s domain-name has been registered.
In the event that the Web Site requires storage and transfer on the Host Server which exceeds the amount of storage included in the Hosting Services, Client may, upon two (2) days written e-mail notice to Host, request that Host (a) upgrade the level of Hosting Services, or (b) acquire additional incremental storage to be included in the Hosting Services, on a time and materials basis and in accordance with the Pricing Schedule hereto. Host shall review all such requests and determine, in consultation with Client, whether it can reasonably comply with such requests and, if so, Host shall propose a procedure and budget for complying with such request.
Client assumes sole responsibility for (a) acquiring any authorization(s) necessary for hypertext links to third party web sites, (b) the accuracy of materials on the Web Site, including, without limitation, Client Content, descriptive claims, warranties, guarantees, nature of business, and address where business is conducted, and © ensuring that the Client Content does not infringe or violate any right of any third party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Host reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to exclude or remove from the Web Site any hypertext links to third party web sites, any Client Content on the Web Site, or other content not supplied by Host which, in Host’s sole reasonable discretion, may violate or infringe any law or third party rights or which otherwise exposes or potentially exposes Host to civil or criminal liability or public ridicule, provided that such right shall not place an obligation on Host to monitor or exert editorial control over the Web Site.
