We may contact You through the registered email address that You have on file with Us for any further verification and clarification. In addition, in certain Order approval cases, You may be asked by TheWebKnights or Our agents to provide one or more government issued identification and authentication documents to match the address details You used during the Order process and/or to match Your payment and billing details on file — failure to comply with such a request will result in non-acceptance of Your Order.

- It is Your responsibility to ensure that Your contact information is accurate and up to date at all times. We will use the primary e-mail address that You provided to Us when You completed Your Order if We need to contact You for any reason. During the sign-up process, You agree that You will not provide Us with a contact e-mail address for a service that You are signing up under or that is yet to be activated. The primary e-mail that You provide during initial sign-up, or if You update it in the future, will undergo a verification procedure, which, if not verified, may result in Your Order not being approved or termination of Your account.
- In order to receive all TheWebKnights emails in a safe manner and to avoid missing important communications, it is Your responsibility to (i) Whitelist @thewebknights.com e-mail domain and the ability to accept all e-mails sent by Us on Your e-mail client software and/or any other anti-spam filters that You may use; and (ii) You always check Your “Spam” or “Junk” e-mails for e-mails from TheWebKnights

This section shall survive any cancellation or termination of Your Ordered Services.

TheWebKnights explicitly reserves the right to review every cPanel Hosting account for excessive usage of disk space to ensure compliance with these Terms of Service.

Backups will not be provided for accounts that have been suspended or terminated for any reason unless TheWebKnights otherwise agrees.

If You send an e-mail FROM a non-verified e-mail address to Our Technical Support and Billing Departments, Our agents have the right to discard it and/or advise You to sign in to Client Zone/Support Portal to submit the request again, thus delaying the entire process.
- If You have requested that We obtain a domain name for You, the related amount stated in Your Order will be charged to You. We make no guarantee that the requested domain name will be available.

- If You have requested that We obtain a dedicated IP address for You, the related amount stated in Your Order will be charged to You.

Secured Off-Site Backup
Secured Off-Site Backup is not meant to be used by Customers’ of the Service as their primary storage; it is meant to be a backup of Your primary data store. We do not backup any data stored in connection with our Secured Off-Site Backup service.
Transfers
Our team will use reasonable efforts to help You move Your current services with other providers to Your Ordered Services with Us, but we cannot make any guarantees of the transfer process and in certain circumstances We may be unable to assist You in transferring Your data from Your previous provider.
For our Reseller – cPanel Hosting customers, we will migrate up to 25 cPanel accounts free of charge (US$5 fee per additional cPanel account) provided that your existing host also uses cPanel as the control panel and allows cPanel backups to be taken. You must keep Your old hosting service active until transfers are completed. To be eligible for the free Reseller cPanel account transfers, all requests must be submitted within 30 days of Your sign-up. It can take up to 96 hours to complete all migration steps.
For our Managed E-mail Hosting customers, a fee of US$5 per mail box will be charged for each mailbox to be migrated or, if you have a large number of mailboxes to migrate, a discounted price can be negotiated by contacting Our sales team. To avoid any service disruptions You must keep Your existing e-mail service active until Our team confirms that the transfer is successfully completed.
Support
Our cPanel Hosting, Managed E-mail Hosting and Secured Offsite Backup Services include end-user support to Our direct customers only. In order to make use of Our end-user support You must follow the Support Ticket Procedure (described above) otherwise support will not be provided.
End-user support may be delayed or not provided, as determined by TheWebKnights in Our discretion, if You are in breach of any of the Terms of Service, including non-payment of Fees.
Although, TheWebKnights has internal SLAs that we strive to meet for Our support services offered via Our ‘Live Chat’ system, Our Support Portal or otherwise using the Support Ticket Procedure, there is no guaranteed support ticket response or resolution time that we promise to Our customers, but we aim to provide an initial response within two hours.
Resellers are responsible for directly supporting their customers. We do not provide direct support to Our Reseller’s customers. Any Reseller support request must be made directly by the Reseller on their client’s behalf for security and privacy reasons. You are responsible for the content and nature of any support replies that You provide to Your clients.
Scope of Support
Support is provided solely in the English language.
It is expected that You have the required computer literacy and understanding of Internet concepts such as domain name, e-mail and file transfer protocols, DNS zones, etc.
Our support agents can assist you with answering or configuration of most basic settings related to setting up an e-mail account using any well-known e-mail client software, such as Microsoft Outlook, etc. Similarly, in order to help you make a successful connection to Your Ordered services or account, Our support agents can assist with basic configuration or troubleshooting of any standard FTP software and connectivity related to cPanel/WHM and SmarterMail control panels. Additionally, You are entirely responsible for the installation and configuration of any and all scripts/applications under Your Ordered Services/account. Our support agents will NOT troubleshoot or provide any kind of support relating to malfunctioning scripts/applications. For security reasons it is Your responsibility to maintain the latest version of any scripts/applications that run or are installed under Your Ordered Services.
We reserve the right to decide what software gets installed/upgraded/downgraded and resides on Our servers such as LiteSpeed Web Server, MariaDB, PHP, etc. We also determine the version and configuration of all installed software on Our servers. Therefore, we are not responsible or provide any guarantee for compatibility of Your own software (including any custom or 3rd party scripts/applications) with the software and services that we run on Our servers.
Promotional or Discount Coupon Codes
Discount and coupon codes apply only to the specific Service(s) described in the related TheWebKnights promotion and cannot be applied to any other Service. Discount and coupon codes are valid only towards the initial purchase and shall not affect the renewal or recurring price of any Service, unless a recurring discount is specifically referenced in the coupon or promotion and only to the extent set forth in that coupon or promotion. Discounts offered after you have purchased, or agreed to purchase, a Service are not applicable. Upon any downgrade, upgrade or closure of a Service to which a discount or coupon code was applied, the discount offered in connection with said discount or coupon code is considered null and void. Discount and coupon codes have no cash value and may not be transferred or used towards later purchases, downgrades, upgrades or modifications to any Service. You may not combine multiple coupon codes, other offers and promotions towards a single purchase. Discount or coupon code abuse will not be tolerated under any circumstances, and may result in the suspension of the account, closure of the account or retroactive adjustment of related charges. TheWebKnights reserves the right to discontinue any discount code or promotion at any time, for any reason or no reason, without notice.
Term and Termination/Cancellation, Renewals, Fees and Payments
All advertised Service fees on Our Sites do not include any applicable taxes. Any taxes imposed by a government entity on the Services will be added to the invoices generated, unless You provide TheWebKnights with a valid (as determined by Us in our sole discretion) tax exemption certificate issued by a government authority.
The date format used in Our invoices and all billing related activities are in YYYY-MM-DD format.
Each Ordered Service is provided by TheWebKnights on a month-to-month or yearly (12 month) basis, as set out in Your Order, commencing on Your Acceptance Date and shall automatically renew for successive one month or twelve month periods, as applicable, until cancelled by You or TheWebKnights. Fees for Services are payable in advance for the upcoming month or year, as applicable. You may cancel any Ordered Service at any time in accordance with these Terms of Service, but will not be entitled to any refund of fees in respect of a partial month. If You chose to pay for an Ordered Service at the discounted yearly in advance rate and cancel prior to the end of the year then, for the purpose of any refund to which You may be entitled, Your refund will be calculated as if You had been paying for the related Ordered Service at our regular monthly non-discounted rate. For example, if (i) the regular monthly rate for Your Ordered Services were $10 per month ($120 per year) and you opted to pay yearly in advance at a discounted rate of $8 per month ($96 per year) and (ii) You cancelled Your Ordered Services after the end of the sixth month, then (iii) Your refund would be determined based on what You would have paid for the first six months at the regular rate (i.e. 6 months x $10 per month = $60), in this example, the refund being $98 – $60 = $38.
If You chose to pay for Your Services on a monthly basis then You authorize Us and Our payment agent to automatically charge, on the monthly anniversary of Your applicable Acceptance Date (subject to the billing date adjustment described at the end of this paragraph, if applicable), the credit card, debit card or paypal account, as applicable, You have on file with Us or Our payment agent for Your then applicable monthly Services fee amount and to continue to do so each month thereafter unless you have cancelled all of Your Services with Us. If You chose to pay for Your Ordered Services yearly in advance then You agree that the references to ‘monthly’ and ‘month’ in the previous sentence will be read as ‘yearly’ and ‘year’, respectively. If You chose a month-to-month contract and Your Acceptance Date falls on the 29th, 30th or 31st day of a month and a billing month does not have those dates, then the billing day for the first such month (and for future months) will be the 31st day after Your normal billing date — for example, if January 31 is Your Acceptance Date, then Your initial billing date would be January 31, while Your next billing date would be March 3 (assuming it is not a leap year) and thereafter Your recurring billing date would be the 3rd day of each month.
You can only request a cancellation or termination of Your Ordered Services through Our “Client Zone” site located at my.thewebknights.com. You must first login to Our Client Zone -> Select “My Products/Services” -> Select the product You wish to cancel or terminate -> click on “Request Cancellation” button located at the bottom of that page. Upon receiving the cancellation service request that You submitted, Our billing system will send out a confirmation e-mail to Your registered email address that We have on file. Any cancellation or termination requests that we receive through any other contact method such as ‘Live Chat’, ‘Ticket System’, e-mail, by phone, etc., will not be accepted or treated as an official cancellation request. A cancellation/termination must be made at least 7 days before Your next invoice is due, otherwise You will be charged the full invoice amount and the cancellation/termination request will not become effective until the next following invoice due date.
If You request termination of an Ordered Service and request that the cancellation take effect immediately, You will not be refunded for any unused portions of the period that You have already paid or been invoiced for.
If Your account accumulates a debt, We may at Our discretion pass Your details to a 3rd party debt collection company or may sell Your debt to a 3rd party. If Your account is passed to a debt collection company or the debt is sold, You agree that We may charge You an administration fee of up to US$100.
TheWebKnights reserves the right to terminate any account and Your Ordered Services at any time, for any reason, including, but not limited to, a breach of these Terms of Service.
We reserve the right to charge You and You agree to pay a late fee equal to 15% of the invoiced amount (in the currency Your account is associated with), for any invoice that is overdue by more than 7 days from the payment due date listed on such invoice.
All of Your Ordered Services will be suspended if You have an unpaid invoiced amount outstanding for more than 7 days of its due date. Your account and all of Your Ordered Services will be terminated if You have an unpaid invoiced amount outstanding for more than 15 days of its due date. You acknowledge that in the event that Your account and Ordered Services are terminated in such circumstances, all of Your data including any backups copies will be permanently deleted from Our servers and We will have no liability to You.
This section shall survive any cancellation or termination of Your Ordered Services.
