Terms Of Service

 

Kickassd Terms Of Service (TOS)

This Web Hosting Agreement (“Agreement”) is between Kickassd (“Kickassd” or “we”), and the person (individual or legal entity) who signs Kickassd’s service order and set up form (the “Order”) incorporating this Agreement by reference (“Customer” or “you”). This Agreement governs Customer’s use of Kickassd’s Web Hosting service. In these Terms, Kickassd and Customer are referred to jointly as the “Parties” and individually as a “Party”. The Parties expressly acknowledge that the Service is neither intended nor fit for use by consumers.

Please read this agreement carefully. By agreeing to our terms of service on the account signup form, signing up, communicating with us, paying for and/or using our services, you are agreeing to be bound by the conditions and terms of this agreement, and our privacy policy.

Agreement Documents
An agreement is formed between the Parties when Kickassd receives an appropriately filled-in registration or order form (“Order”) which the Customer has submitted through a registration and/or purchasing procedure on Kickassd’s website. In connection with the registration procedure the Customer will create a service account. Any referral herein to “Agreement” includes the Order, service descriptions attached or referred to in the Order, the service level agreement (“SLA”), the acceptable use policy (“AUP”) and these Terms. The SLA and the AUP are available on Kickassd’s website.

Provision of Service
Kickassd will setup an account for a Customer after we have received payment and we and/or our payment partner(s) have screened the order(s) in case of fraud. It is the Customer’s responsibility to provide us with an email address which is not @ the domain(s) the Customer is signing up under. If there is ever an abuse issue or Kickassd needs to contact the Customer, the primary email address on file will be used for this purpose. It is the Customer’s responsibility to ensure the email address on file is current or up to date at all times.

Providing false contact information of any kind may result in the termination of the Customer’s account. In high risk transactions, it will be necessary to provide government issued identification and possibly a scan of the credit card used for the purchase. If the Customer fail to meet these requirements, the order may be considered fraudulent in nature and be denied. 

Kickassd shall provide the Customer with the Service, which is specified in the Order. If the provided Service differs from the specifications, Kickassd shall correct the Service promptly after a notification by the Customer.

Account And Server Resources 
You are allocated a monthly bandwidth and storage allowance. This allowance varies depending on the hosting package you purchase. Should your account pass the allocated amount we reserve the right to suspend the account until more bandwidth or storage is purchased at an additional fee, suspend the account until you upgrade to a higher level of package, terminate the account and/or charge you an additional fee for the overages. Unused transfer in one month cannot be carried over to the next month. Locally stored backups are cleaned automatically every 7 days, and Kickassd is not responsible for data loss due to local backup cleanups. Ram and IO allowances: We guarantee the availability of your respective plans RAM and IO resources. CPU: Accounts are given access to 1 full core and up to 1.2 full cores. CPU is fair use policy and you are not guaranteed the use of 1 full core. Sustained high CPU use will result in notification and a request that you lower it or move to a Cloud Server.

Account Transfers
Kickassd offers account transfers from other hosts as a courtesy and to help the Customer’s transition smoothly to the Kickassd hosting service. Kickassd does not guarantee that transfer will always work out. Transfers are done on a first come first serve basis and we cannot give timelines or ETAs on transfers. We make our best effort to complete transfers within 24 hours of the request being submitted.

Support
Kickassd shall provide the Customer’s administrative users with technical support with respect to the Service through the means described under the Support page on Kickassd’s website. Contact details and service hours are provided on Kickassd’s website.

While Kickassd is a managed Webhosting service, our management is not all inclusive, though generous. Clients are expected to attempt to fix issues and or perform installations prior to requesting help from Kickassd support staff. Kickassd support staff can and will help complete installs and diagnose and fix problems when the problems are not due to client negligence, client code changes, or any other change applied by the client that broke website or database. Support does not repair, or modify website code, or database contents. In the case of a hacked website we deal with these on a case by case basis and will do what we can to help the client recover from it, but it is not Kickassd’s responsibility to clean and or repair files infected or damaged by hacks.

Kickassd processes certain personal data also as a data controller. Such personal data includes, inter alia, data of the Customer’s contact persons, invoicing details and other personal data of Customer’s contact persons which Kickassd processes in order to maintain the customer relationship. The requirements relating to the personal data Kickassd processes as data controller are set out in our Privacy Policy available on Kickassd’s website.

In connection with the use of the Service, the Customer may transfer various data to Kickassd for processing on behalf of the Customer. Such data might include Personal Data. The Customer shall be considered as the sole data controller and Kickassd as the sole data processor with respect to such data. The following terms and conditions set forth in this section concern the data processing activities of Kickassd as a data processor with respect to the Personal Data it processes on behalf of the Customer.

General requirements relating to processing of Personal Data
The Customer shall be responsible for the lawful collection, processing and use, and for the accuracy of the Personal Data, as well as for preserving the rights of the individuals concerned. If and to the extent legally required, the Customer shall inform the individuals concerned regarding the processing of their Personal Data by Kickassd, and shall obtain their consent if necessary. The Personal Data processed by Kickassd on behalf of the Customer may include e.g. Personal Data of the Customer’s employees and end-customers, such as contact details of the aforementioned data subjects. The Customer acknowledges that due to the nature of the Service, Kickassd cannot control and has no obligation to verify Personal Data the Customer transfers to Kickassd for processing on behalf of the Customer when the Customer uses the Service. The Customer ensures that the Customer is entitled to transfer the Personal Data to Kickassd so that Kickassd may lawfully process the Personal Data on behalf of the Customer in accordance with this Agreement. Kickassd shall not use Personal Data for any purpose other than that of rendering and providing the Service and will not assert liens or other rights over, or sell or disclose the Personal Data to any third parties, without the Customer’s prior written approval. Kickassd shall process Personal Data in accordance with this Agreement and documented instructions from the Customer. The Customer’s instructions must be commercially reasonable, compliant with applicable data protection laws and consistent with this Agreement. Kickassd shall not be obliged to verify whether any instructions given by the Customer are consistent with applicable laws, as the Customer is responsible for such compliance verification of its instructions. However, if Kickassd detects that any instruction given by the Customer is non-compliant with the requirements of any data protection legislation applicable to Kickassd’s operations, Kickassd shall inform the Customer in writing. Kickassd and the Customer shall comply with the EU Regulation 2016/679 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data (“Regulation”) and any applicable European or foreign data protection laws as amended, as well as data protection authorities’ orders and guidelines. Kickassd and the Customer shall implement and maintain appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect the Personal Data within their area of responsibility, in order to safeguard the Personal Data against unauthorised or unlawful processing or access and against accidental loss, destruction or damage. Such measures include where necessary and appropriate, taking into account the state of the art, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, context and purposes of processing as well as the risk of varying likelihood and severity for the rights and freedoms of natural persons the following measures:

• access right controls to systems containing Personal Data;
• the pseudonymisation and encryption of Personal Data;
• the ability to ensure the ongoing confidentiality, integrity, availability and resilience of processing systems and services;
• the ability to restore the availability and access to Personal Data in a timely manner in the event of a physical or technical incident;
• a process for regularly testing, assessing and evaluating the effectiveness of technical and organisational measures for ensuring the security of the processing.

Kickassd’s assistance obligations
To respond to requests from individuals exercising their rights as foreseen in applicable data protection law, such as the right of access and the right to rectification or erasure, the Customer shall primarily use the corresponding functions of the Services, such as the Kickassd Control Panel. Kickassd shall provide the Customer with commercially reasonable assistance, without undue delay, taking into account the nature of the processing. Kickassd shall further provide the Customer with commercially reasonable assistance in ensuring compliance with the Customer’s obligations to perform security and data protection assessments, breach notifications and prior consultations of the competent supervisory authority, as set out in the applicable data protection law, taking into account the nature of the processing and the information available to Kickassd. In case such assistance requires extensive measures from Kickassd, the Customer shall pay additional reasonable remuneration to Kickassd for handling such assistance requests. In addition, Kickassd shall, and shall procure that its personnel (including its subcontractors’ personnel) shall:

only process Personal Data in accordance with the Customer’s written instructions and not for Kickassd’s own purposes;
ensure that individuals processing Personal Data have committed themselves to confidentiality or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality.

Transfers of Personal Data
The Customer accepts that Kickassd may have Personal Data processed and accessible by its subprocessors outside the Customer’s country of domicile to provide the Service. In case the processing is subject to any EU data protection law and Personal Data is transferred from the European Economic Area (“EEA”) to a subprocessor for processing in any country outside the EEA that is not recognized by the European Commission as providing an adequate level of protection for personal data, Kickassd provides for appropriate safeguards by standard contractual clauses, adopted or approved by the European Commission and applicable to the processing by the non-EEA subprocessor or by any other appropriate safeguard as foreseen under Regulation.

Breaches
Kickassd shall, without undue delay after having become aware of it, inform the Customer in writing about any data breaches relating to Personal Data and any other events where the security of Personal Data processed on behalf of the Customer has been compromised. Kickassd’s notification about the breach to the Customer shall include at least the following:

description of the nature of the breach;
name and contact details of Kickassd’s contact point where more information can be obtained;
description of the measures taken by Kickassd to address the breach, including, where appropriate, measures to mitigate its possible adverse effects.

Deletion and return of Personal Data
Kickassd shall not take any action to intentionally erase any Personal Data processed on behalf of the Customer, without the Customer’s explicit request. Personal Data shall be processed under this Agreement until the Customer has ceased to use the Service. Within a reasonable time after the termination or expiry of this Agreement, or after the Customer has permanently ceased to use the Service, Kickassd shall permanently delete Personal Data from its storage media, except to the extent that Kickassd is under a statutory obligation to continue storing such Personal Data. On the Customer’s request, Kickassd shall confirm the deletion in writing. The obligation to delete Personal Data shall not apply to Personal Data contained in regular back-up copies of comprehensive datasets from which the individual deletion of Personal Data would not be possible without significant efforts or costs.

Confidentiality
The Parties may exchange confidential information during the performance of this Agreement. Confidential information shall mean any information which is marked as confidential or which should be understood as confidential, irrespective of its form of storage or disclosure. All confidential information shall remain the property of the disclosing Party and the receiving Party shall keep confidential and refrain from using such confidential information otherwise than for the purposes of this Agreement, during the term of this Agreement and after the termination of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, any information of or relating to a Party or that Party’s personnel, suppliers, contractors, customers or end-users, which information is obtained or detected by the other Party or processed or generated in the course of providing or receiving the Service shall be deemed confidential information of that Party. Each Party shall promptly upon termination of the Service cease using confidential material and information received from the other Party and use reasonable means to destroy such material. Each Party shall, however, be entitled to retain the copies required by law or regulations.

Non-Waiver
A failure by either Party to enforce any provision of the Agreement will not be deemed to constitute a present or future waiver of such provision. All waivers must be made in writing.

Each Party shall be entitled to suspend its duties without liability thereof in case of Force Majeure affecting the Party either directly or through its subcontractor.

Severability
Should any provision of the Agreement be declared unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions of the Agreement will remain in full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted by law. The Parties shall attempt through negotiation in good faith to replace the unenforceable provision with such provisions that correspond as closely as possible to the original intention of the Parties.
