Hosting space further may not be used as offsite storage of electronic files, e-mail or FTP hosts. UnifyHOST expressly reserves the right to review every user account for excessive usage of CPU, bandwidth, disk space and other resources that may be a result of your violation of this Agreement or the Acceptable Use Policy.

However, the use of UnifyHOST resources must be consistent with a shared hosting environment and must otherwise comply with this Agreement. Accounts with a large number of files (i.e. node count in excess of 200,000) can have an adverse effect on server performance. Similarly, accounts with an excessive number of database tables (i.e., in excess of 5000 database tables) or of excessive database size (i.e., in excess of 10GB total database usage or 5GB database usage in a single database) negatively affect the performance of the server. In the event Subscriber exceeds these amounts, UnifyHOST may request that a Subscriber’s number of files/nodes, database tables, or total database usage be reduced to ensure proper service performance. UnifyHOST reserves the right to terminate a Subscriber account, with or without notice, for excessive use of resources that result in a degradation of server performance or the Services.

Unlimited File Transfer.UnifyHOST does not set arbitrary limits on the amount of visitor traffic Subscriber Websites can receive or on the amount of content a Subscriber can upload to Subscriber Websites in any given month, nor does UnifyHOST charge additional fees based on the increased use of bandwidth, as long as the Subscriber’s use of the Services complies with this Agreement. In most cases, Subscriber Websites will be able to support as much traffic as the Subscriber can legitimately acquire. However, UnifyHOST reserves the right to limit processor time, bandwidth, processes, or memory in cases where it is necessary to prevent negatively impacting other Subscribers.

Subscriber acknowledges that Subscriber is solely responsible for any changes made with super-user access and that UnifyHOST may not be able to reverse any changes and/or recover data lost or damaged through the use of super-user privileges.

1. 1. Reinstallation of corrupted modules, such as control panel files, web server files, etc.;
   2. Reinstallation of the baseline operating system and core file image at Subscriber’s request. Subscriber acknowledges and understands that a new image install will cause the irreversible complete loss of all data stored on the server. UnifyHOST is not liable for any data lost as a result of this action;
   3. Restoration of files from available backups at Subscriber’s request. This restoration will be a full restore of the backup files; UnifyHOST does not offer file-by-file restoration services;

      • Reseller shall ensure that each Subscriber signed up by the Reseller complies with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
      • Reseller cannot make any modifications to this Agreement. Any such alterations shall be deemed a violation of this Agreement and could result in the cancellation of Reseller’s accounts. UnifyHOST is not responsible for any modifications made to this Agreement by Reseller.

For all Subscribers who signed up for or purchased Services on or after April 1, 2017, the following terms shall also apply: 

• UnifyHOST and you (such references include our respective subsidiaries, affiliates, predecessors in interest, successors and assigns) agree to arbitrate all disputes and claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement between UnifyHOST and you.
• A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send written notice to UnifyHOST’s Legal Department of its intent to arbitrate (“Notice”). The Notice to UnifyHOST should be sent by any of the following means: (i) electronic mail to legal[at]unifyhost.in; or (ii) sending the Notice by Postal Service certified mail to UnifyHOST, Attn: Legal Department, F/2 Triveni Shopping Arcade, Vidhyanagar Road, Anand 388001 Gujarat INDIA. The Notice must (x) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute, and (y) set forth the specific relief sought. If we do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, you or UnifyHOST may commence an arbitration proceeding.
• The arbitration shall be governed by the Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “Arbitration Rules”) of India as modified by this Agreement and shall be administered by the Supreme Court of India. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including the scope of this arbitration clause, provided, however, that the arbitrator is bound by the terms of this Agreement.
• In the event you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, UnifyHOST will pay as much of your filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees in connection with the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive. If, however, the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought is improper or not warranted, as measured by the standards set forth in the Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b), then the payment of arbitration costs shall be governed by the Arbitration Rules. In such case, you agree to reimburse UnifyHOST for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the Arbitration Rules. If the arbitrator grants relief to you that is equal to or greater than the value of your demand, UnifyHOST shall reimburse you for your reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred for the arbitration.
• You agree that, by entering into this Agreement, you and UnifyHOST are waiving the right to a trial by jury.
• If you initiate litigation or any other proceeding against UnifyHOST in violation of this section, you agree to pay UnifyHOST’s reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with its enforcement of this section.
• The parties shall maintain the confidential nature of the arbitration proceeding and any award, including the hearing, except as may be necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration hearing on the merits, or except as may be necessary in connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy, a judicial challenge to an award or its enforcement, or unless otherwise required by law or judicial decision.
• ARBITRATION MUST BE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. THIS MEANS NEITHER YOU NOR UNIFYHOST MAY JOIN OR CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS IN ARBITRATION BY OR AGAINST OTHER SUBSCRIBERS, OR LITIGATE IN COURT OR ARBITRATE ANY CLAIMS AS A REPRESENTATIVE OR MEMBER OF A CLASS OR IN A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL CAPACITY. Further, you agree that the arbitrator may not consolidate proceedings or more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding and that if this specific proviso is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration clause shall be null and void. The arbitrator may award injunctive relief only in favour of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim.

For its own operational efficiencies and purposes, UnifyHOST from time to time backs up data on its servers but is under no obligation or duty to Subscriber to do so under this Agreement.
