Excessive Use Policy

HIGH BANDWIDTH USAGE

Graith Internet maintains high levels of performance for each customer by applying a maximum bandwidth allocation to each web host contract. The limits imposed on bandwidth are specified within each contract package.

HIGH PROCESSOR UTILISATION

Graith Internet offers an unlimited use policy by maintaining very high ratios of processor resources per customer.

In rare cases, Graith Internet may find a customer to be exceeding their allocated bandwidth, or monopolising processor utilisation resources to such an extent that they are jeopardising performance for other customer. In such instances, Graith Internet reserves the right to impose the High Resource User Policy for the consideration of all customers.

HIGH RESOURCE USER POLICY

Resources are defined as bandwidth and / or processor utilisation. Graith Internet may implement the following policy to its sole discretion:
When a web host contract is found to be monopolising the resources available, the account holder will be contacted in order to discuss the situation. If no arrangement can be reached, Graith Internet reserves the right to suspend or terminate the account without notice.

What do we charge for the domain-name related services you provide

We include one domain name free with any hosting package. Any additional .uk or .com domain name is charged at £20+VAT per annum.

How do we deal with expired and expiring domain name registrations

Any domain names included with your hosting package will be renewed automatically. We will invoice for your hosting around the 1st of the month of the anniversery of your renewal (the invoice email contains a link to this page and payment indicates acceptance of these terms) . If you don't pay within the 14-days allowed, we will contact you by email or phone to see if you intend to renew. We will make two attempts to do this and will then turn off your website. If you contact us on seeing that, you should be in time to renew your domain name. We will only let your domain name lapse if we can't make contact with you following all these steps. Normally, this would mean you have 80 days to renew your domain name after the invoice has been sent.

How do I renew my domain name?

You don't need to do anything to renew your domain name. Just pay your hosting invoice within 14 days of receipt.

Do I have to pay anything to transfer my domain name?

If you have outstanding invoices, these must be paid first. If you have no outstanding invoices, there are no additional charges to transfer the domain name to another registrar.

Payment Policies

All web host contract pricing is guaranteed for the contract term. Graith Internet reserves the right to change prices at any time. Payment is due each anniversary month or period following the date that the account was established. The customer is responsible for all money owed on the account from the time it was established to the time that the customer notifies Graith Internet in writing for a request for termination of services. All payment should be made in UK £ Sterling.

Graith Internet will not relinquish ownership of web site designs, until they have been paid for in full. Furthermore, Graith Internet reserve the right to prevent the release of domain names and / or the broadcast of web sites and / or the use of email, if invoices are not settled in a timely manner, as specified in the payment terms noted on each invoice.

Cancellation

Fees paid in advance of cancellation will be prorated and paid by Graith Internet if Graith Internet institutes its right of cancellation.

All fees outstanding to Graith Internet for the web site contract up to the close of the contract will be prorated and invoiced on receipt of the written notice of cancellation.
