Cancellations of renewable services

Domain names

– Non-refundable, as it is the clients responsibility to switch off the auto-renew for any domain names they do not wish to renew. We do of course send out many carefully timed reminders long in advance long before a domain is due, along with instructions on what to do if you do not want to renew a particular domain name.

Shared web hosting

– You MUST notify us no later than 24 hours before its renewal date, by support ticket only. All accounts due for renewal shall be invoiced 24 hours in advance of the 1st of the due month.

Reseller Hosting

– You MUST notify us no later than 24 hours before its renewal date, by support ticket only. All accounts due for renewal shall be invoiced 24 hours in advance of the 1st of the due month.

Dedicated Servers

– A minimum of 1 clear calendar month is required to cancel a dedicated server.

If you fail to notify us of cancellation and your invoice(s) are then generated, these invoices shall be deemed valid, outstanding and due for payment. If your invoice is for shared or reseller hosting, for a full 12 months, we can reduce it to 1 month and this amount will be due for payment and your plan terminated at the end of that single paid month.

Website Maintenance, Marketing and SEO

Regardless of payment frequency, these services are all “per-year”. This is due to the software licencing we have to invest in to provide your service.

Cancellations prior to the end of a current 12-month period will result in a final invoice for any outstanding months.

Charges and compensation;

All fees to WESH UK are payable monthly, quarterly, 6 monthly, annually or on a “per job” basis in the case of non hosting services.

If there is any money due to you, this will be added to your account as a credit. This includes mistakes made by customers that accidentally sign up for hosting twice.

Refugee Discounts for transfers

If you are transferring from any other hosting company, you are entitled to use only the discounts listed on our refugee discounts page.

You may also contact us to ask if your current host (Not listed) could be included, but we will not add any host who is a reseller (Not an actual host) nor any business seen hiding their WHOIS or deliberately using false information in their WHOIS records.

Refunds

If you want a refund for Web Hosting within 30 days of joining WESH UK then a no quibble refund will be issued. We issue all refunds via the same method they were paid to us and only once your original funds have cleared can we give them back to you.

Our 30 day money back guarantee is applicable ONLY to annual accounts and is only for the first 30 days of that accounts existence (not renewals).

Unfortunately Our 30 day money back guarantee can not include domain name registration fees, SSL certificate purchases and the purchase of any extra service’s.

Customer refund requests must be via support ticket only.

Unpaid Fees

WESH UK will charge an additional 20% of an invoices full balance on any invoices still unpaid 6 days after its due date. This is to cover admin costs and time spent chasing the customer.

All payments must be in UK Pounds Sterling.

WESH UK reserves the right to interrupt a customers services until final payment is made or any outstanding balance is cleared preventing their usage or copying elsewhere.

We will NOT accept reasons such as “I don’t DO email”, why didn’t you call me to tell me?” “I didn’t know I had to pay an invoice” or other such similar reasons. If collection proves necessary, the client hereby agrees to pay all fees incurred by that process. (This has never ever happened yet)

Please pay on time or speak to us.

1. Domain Name Registrations; Loads to read here, as set by ICANN & RIPE.

1.1 We make no representation that the domain name you wish to register is capable of being registered by or for you. You should therefore not assume registration of your requested domain name or services until you have been notified that it has been registered and appears with your details in the relevant WHOIS search. Any action taken by you before such notification is at your risk.

1.2 The registration and use of your domain name is subject to the terms and conditions of use applied by the relevant naming authority; you shall ensure that you are aware of those terms and conditions and that you comply with them found here:

Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy

(As Approved by ICANN on October 24, 1999)

1. Purpose. This Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (the “Policy”) has been adopted by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (“ICANN”), is incorporated by reference into your Registration Agreement, and sets forth the terms and conditions in connection with a dispute between you and any party other than us (the registrar) over the registration and use of an Internet domain name registered by you. Proceedings under Paragraph 4 of this Policy will be conducted according to the Rules for Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (the “Rules of Procedure”), which are available at www.icann.org/udrp/udrp-rules-24oct99.htm, and the selected administrative-dispute-resolution service provider’s supplemental rules.

2. Your Representations. By applying to register a domain name, or by asking us to maintain or renew a domain name registration, you hereby represent and warrant to us that (a) the statements that you made in your Registration Agreement are complete and accurate; (b) to your knowledge, the registration of the domain name will not infringe upon or otherwise violate the rights of any third party; (c) you are not registering the domain name for an unlawful purpose; and (d) you will not knowingly use the domain name in violation of any applicable laws or regulations. It is your responsibility to determine whether your domain name registration infringes or violates someone else’s rights.

3. Cancellations, Transfers, and Changes. We will cancel, transfer or otherwise make changes to domain name registrations under the following circumstances:

a. subject to the provisions of Paragraph 8, our receipt of written or appropriate electronic instructions from you or your authorized agent to take such action;

b. our receipt of an order from a court or arbitral tribunal, in each case of competent jurisdiction, requiring such action; and/or

c. our receipt of a decision of an Administrative Panel requiring such action in any administrative proceeding to which you were a party and which was conducted under this Policy or a later version of this Policy adopted by ICANN. (See Paragraph 4(i) and (k) below.)

We may also cancel, transfer or otherwise make changes to a domain name registration in accordance with the terms of your Registration Agreement or other legal requirements.

4. Mandatory Administrative Proceeding.

This Paragraph sets forth the type of disputes for which you are required to submit to a mandatory administrative proceeding. These proceedings will be conducted before one of the administrative-dispute-resolution service providers listed at https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/providers-6d-2012-02-25-en (each, a “Provider”).

a. Applicable Disputes. You are required to submit to a mandatory administrative proceeding in the event that a third party (a “complainant”) asserts to the applicable Provider, in compliance with the Rules of Procedure, that

(i) your domain name is identical or confusingly similar to a trademark or service mark in which the complainant has rights; and

(ii) you have no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the domain name; and

(iii) your domain name has been registered and is being used in bad faith.

In the administrative proceeding, the complainant must prove that each of these three elements are present.

b. Evidence of Registration and Use in Bad Faith. For the purposes of Paragraph 4(a)(iii), the following circumstances, in particular but without limitation, if found by the Panel to be present, shall be evidence of the registration and use of a domain name in bad faith:

(i) circumstances indicating that you have registered or you have acquired the domain name primarily for the purpose of selling, renting, or otherwise transferring the domain name registration to the complainant who is the owner of the trademark or service mark or to a competitor of that complainant, for valuable consideration in excess of your documented out-of-pocket costs directly related to the domain name; or

(ii) you have registered the domain name in order to prevent the owner of the trademark or service mark from reflecting the mark in a corresponding domain name, provided that you have engaged in a pattern of such conduct; or

(iii) you have registered the domain name primarily for the purpose of disrupting the business of a competitor; or

(iv) by using the domain name, you have intentionally attempted to attract, for commercial gain, Internet users to your web site or other on-line location, by creating a likelihood of confusion with the complainant’s mark as to the source, sponsorship, affiliation, or endorsement of your web site or location or of a product or service on your web site or location.

c. How to Demonstrate Your Rights to and Legitimate Interests in the Domain Name in Responding to a Complaint. When you receive a complaint, you should refer to Paragraph 5 of the Rules of Procedure in determining how your response should be prepared. Any of the following circumstances, in particular but without limitation, if found by the Panel to be proved based on its evaluation of all evidence presented, shall demonstrate your rights or legitimate interests to the domain name for purposes of Paragraph 4(a)(ii):

(i) before any notice to you of the dispute, your use of, or demonstrable preparations to use, the domain name or a name corresponding to the domain name in connection with a bona fide offering of goods or services; or

(ii) you (as an individual, business, or other organization) have been commonly known by the domain name, even if you have acquired no trademark or service mark rights; or

(iii) you are making a legitimate non-commercial or fair use of the domain name, without intent for commercial gain to misleadingly divert consumers or to tarnish the trademark or service mark at issue.

d. Selection of Provider. The complainant shall select the Provider from among those approved by ICANN by submitting the complaint to that Provider. The selected Provider will administer the proceeding, except in cases of consolidation as described in Paragraph 4(f).

e. Initiation of Proceeding and Process and Appointment of Administrative Panel. The Rules of Procedure state the process for initiating and conducting a proceeding and for appointing the panel that will decide the dispute (the “Administrative Panel”).

f. Consolidation. In the event of multiple disputes between you and a complainant, either you or the complainant may petition to consolidate the disputes before a single Administrative Panel. This petition shall be made to the first Administrative Panel appointed to hear a pending dispute between the parties. This Administrative Panel may consolidate before it any or all such disputes in its sole discretion, provided that the disputes being consolidated are governed by this Policy or a later version of this Policy adopted by ICANN.

g. Fees. All fees charged by a Provider in connection with any dispute before an Administrative Panel pursuant to this Policy shall be paid by the complainant, except in cases where you elect to expand the Administrative Panel from one to three panelists as provided in Paragraph 5(b)(iv) of the Rules of Procedure, in which case all fees will be split evenly by you and the complainant.

h. Our Involvement in Administrative Proceedings. We do not, and will not, participate in the administration or conduct of any proceeding before an Administrative Panel. In addition, we will not be liable as a result of any decisions rendered by the Administrative Panel.

i. Remedies. The remedies available to a complainant pursuant to any proceeding before an Administrative Panel shall be limited to requiring the cancellation of your domain name or the transfer of your domain name registration to the complainant.

j. Notification and Publication. The Provider shall notify us of any decision made by an Administrative Panel with respect to a domain name you have registered with us. All decisions under this Policy will be published in full over the Internet, except when an Administrative Panel determines in an exceptional case to redact portions of its decision.

k. Availability of Court Proceedings. The mandatory administrative proceeding requirements set forth in Paragraph 4 shall not prevent either you or the complainant from submitting the dispute to a court of competent jurisdiction for independent resolution before such mandatory administrative proceeding is commenced or after such proceeding is concluded. If an Administrative Panel decides that your domain name registration should be canceled or transferred, we will wait ten (10) business days (as observed in the location of our principal office) after we are informed by the applicable Provider of the Administrative Panel’s decision before implementing that decision. We will then implement the decision unless we have received from you during that ten (10) business day period official documentation (such as a copy of a complaint, file-stamped by the clerk of the court) that you have commenced a lawsuit against the complainant in a jurisdiction to which the complainant has submitted under Paragraph 3(b)(xiii) of the Rules of Procedure. (In general, that jurisdiction is either the location of our principal office or of your address as shown in our Whois database. See Paragraphs 1 and 3(b)(xiii) of the Rules of Procedure for details.) If we receive such documentation within the ten (10) business day period, we will not implement the Administrative Panel’s decision, and we will take no further action, until we receive (i) evidence satisfactory to us of a resolution between the parties; (ii) evidence satisfactory to us that your lawsuit has been dismissed or withdrawn; or (iii) a copy of an order from such court dismissing your lawsuit or ordering that you do not have the right to continue to use your domain name.

5. All Other Disputes and Litigation. All other disputes between you and any party other than us regarding your domain name registration that are not brought pursuant to the mandatory administrative proceeding provisions of Paragraph 4 shall be resolved between you and such other party through any court, arbitration or other proceeding that may be available.

6. Our Involvement in Disputes. We will not participate in any way in any dispute between you and any party other than us regarding the registration and use of your domain name. You shall not name us as a party or otherwise include us in any such proceeding. In the event that we are named as a party in any such proceeding, we reserve the right to raise any and all defences deemed appropriate, and to take any other action necessary to defend ourselves.

7. Maintaining the Status Quo. We will not cancel, transfer, activate, deactivate, or otherwise change the status of any domain name registration under this Policy except as provided in Paragraph 3 above.

8. Transfers During a Dispute.

a. Transfers of a Domain Name to a New Holder. You may not transfer your domain name registration to another holder (i) during a pending administrative proceeding brought pursuant to Paragraph 4 or for a period of fifteen (15) business days (as observed in the location of our principal place of business) after such proceeding is concluded; or (ii) during a pending court proceeding or arbitration commenced regarding your domain name unless the party to whom the domain name registration is being transferred agrees, in writing, to be bound by the decision of the court or arbitrator. We reserve the right to cancel any transfer of a domain name registration to another holder that is made in violation of this subparagraph.

b. Changing Registrars. You may not transfer your domain name registration to another registrar during a pending administrative proceeding brought pursuant to Paragraph 4 or for a period of fifteen (15) business days (as observed in the location of our principal place of business) after such proceeding is concluded. You may transfer administration of your domain name registration to another registrar during a pending court action or arbitration, provided that the domain name you have registered with us shall continue to be subject to the proceedings commenced against you in accordance with the terms of this Policy. In the event that you transfer a domain name registration to us during the pendency of a court action or arbitration, such dispute shall remain subject to the domain name dispute policy of the registrar from which the domain name registration was transferred.

9. Policy Modifications. We reserve the right to modify this Policy at any time with the permission of ICANN. We will post our revised Policy at <URL> at least thirty (30) calendar days before it becomes effective. Unless this Policy has already been invoked by the submission of a complaint to a Provider, in which event the version of the Policy in effect at the time it was invoked will apply to you until the dispute is over, all such changes will be binding upon you with respect to any domain name registration dispute, whether the dispute arose before, on or after the effective date of our change. In the event that you object to a change in this Policy, your sole remedy is to cancel your domain name registration with us, provided that you will not be entitled to a refund of any fees you paid to us. The revised Policy will apply to you until you cancel your domain name registration.

Shared and reseller hosting Terms and conditions

Add-on domains and reselling shared accounts;

You are permitted to resell individual shared hosting plans to your clients, such as setting up a web hosting plan for somebody who doesn’t know how to do it, or you have built their website and pay for the web hosting yourself, but what we do not allow is for you to resell parts of a shared web hosting plan to individuals under any circumstances.

Add-on domains are for the primary shared web hosting user only, and are not to be resold to host websites for your clients. Any shared web hosting account found to be hosting websites that belong to others, will be asked to separate the websites into individual shared web hosting plans. You can host as many websites as you like, for your clients, but each client must have their own shared hosting plan.

Your add-on domains should match the ownership/domain registration details of the primary cPanel account domain name, which we will and do check first.

Banned content

We do not allow adult, warez, gang sites, racial hatred, illegal MP3 Sites, .exe files or IRC Bots, hate sites, pirated software, pornography, gambling/betting websites or hack programs and archives.on any of our shared web hosting servers. If you are found to be hosting any of the above, we reserve the right to suspend your account, pending investigation.

You may not run server processes (eg. talkers/IRC Bots) or any performance monitoring for other web sites from your shared web hosting. If you do, we will delete them without warning and will suspend your account immediately and invoice you £50+vat for the cleanup.

CPU Abuse and sharing

It is commonly known that WESH UK shared web hostng does at the very least, provide 12.5x more CPU resources than almost all other shared web hosting companies, and so with that in mind, our shared web hosting limits are far greater than most. Our CPU limits are 100% of 1 CPU core, instead of the 1% to 10% found elsewhere.

Should we find that your average CPU usage, or your constant max usage is 100% we will notify you firstly and ask you to reduce your CPU usage as quickly as you can. If your usage is however at a level that is causing problems for others, we reserve the right to suspend your website for short periods of time, providing immediate notification of this, by email for you.

Email usage

Users must not participate in any form of unsolicited bulk e-mailing or spam. Any email newsletters or bulk emails MUST adhere to our mailing list article. We take a zero tolerance stance against sending of unsolicited e-mail, bulk emailing (spamming).

“Safe lists” and “double optin” lists that you purchase on the internet will NOT be tolerated and will be treated as spamming.

Email forwarding to any email address outside of our network is also considered unsolicited email sending and is not to be used at all.

Email forwarding puts our server and your domain name at risk of being blacklisted and is not allowed. Any email forwarding we dicover within your cPanel will be removed without warning.

Any user who attempts to send out or puts in place email forwarding that allows spam to be forwarded to other providers will have their account suspended without notice. (Our shared servers all have strict outgoing mail controls blocking the sending of bulk emails)

WESH UK will charge the holder of the account used to send any unsolicited e-mail a server clean up fee. This cost of the clean up fee is £50+vat. Depending on the number of blacklists you cause our server to be placed on, you can also incur costs of £85+vat per blacklist.
