The use of services from PotPotAck OÜ constitutes agreement to these terms. You may view our Privacy Policy here.
1. Account Setup And Contact Info
Your account will be setup once we have received and confirmed your payment right after we go through the fraud check process. You must provide an email address that’s not currently hosted with us to receive notifications going forward. If there is ever an abuse issue or we need to contact you, the primary email address on file will be used. You must make sure that the email address on file is current. If you have a domain name registered with PotPotAck OÜ, it is your responsibility to ensure that the contact information for your domain account and your actual domain name(s) is correct and up-to-date. PotPotAck OÜ will not be held responsible for a lapsed registration due to outdated contact information being associated with the domain. If you need to verify or change this information, you should contact our sales team via email. Providing false contact information of any kind may result in the immediate termination of your account.
2. Money Back Policy
We provide a 30 Day Money Back Guarantee that applies for Web Hosting services only (Shared and Reseller Plans), this does not apply for domain names, cPanel license, SSL Certificates, additional IPs or dedicated servers; Virtual private servers or Cloud VPS come with a 48-hour Money Back Policy, available only if the end user complied with our policies, BW usage has been under 10% and valid only for the first payment of the first VPS with us.

Shared and Reseller Hosting Accounts:
If for any valid reason you are unhappy with the services you receive from PotPotAck OÜ during the first 30 days of service of web hosting services, you may request via email or by our cancellation form that your services be discontinued at which time you will receive a full refund*. You must also state a detailed reason as to why you are canceling (as we request for any cancellation, no matter the time frame). We are the sole arbiter as to if your reason is a valid reason and if all possible steps were taken on your side and on ours to correct the situation which lead to the cancellation request. If you violated the terms and conditions and your service was suspended then a refund will not be offered. If you asked for cancellation and then agreed to continue using our services then you can't ask for a refund for the second time.
Bitcoin payments for any service are non-refundable.
3. New Accounts (Fraud Checking)
All new web/vps hosting accounts ordered on our website are set up instantly by our system after running an automatic fraud check. A manual fraud check may be performed even after your account has been setup, this usually happens minutes after the order has been processed.
We also perform random verification; you may be contacted by someone on our team to verify your account.
4. Transfers
Our transfers team will make every effort to help you move your site to our platform. But keep in mind that transfers are provided as a courtesy service, and we cannot make any commitment regarding the availability, or time required to complete an account transfer. Each hosting company is configured differently, and some hosting platforms save data in an incompatible or proprietary format, which may make it more difficult if not impossible to migrate some or all account data. We will try our best, but in some cases we may be unable to assist you in a transfer of data from an old host.
The free transfer services are available for 30 days from your sign up date. Transfers outside of the 30 day free period will incur in a charge; please contact a member of the transfers department with specific details to receive a price quote.
5. Payments
When you sign up for one of our services, you are signing up to a pre-paid service. All payments will be charged using PayPal or Credit Card. Renewal notices are sent several times via email from 1 to 10 days before the renewal date. Accounts 7 days past due will be disabled. Accounts 15 days past due will require a $15.00 USD fee to re-enable. We only accept PayPal for payment of our services. In the event that your yearly charge is denied or unable to be processed, the late fee will apply. Please address any questions regarding payment to PotPotAck OÜ billing.
6. Payment Disputes/Chargebacks
If you decide to file a dispute or a chargeback without coming to us first your account may be terminated at our discretion and you will lose the right to be refunded. We are reasonable and want to work with you, give us the chance to fix your issue. If the intention is fraud then you will also be reported.
7. Cancellations
If you wish to cancel your services, you must contact our sales department or request a cancellation from your client area.
If you cancel your account/service and your payments still continue because of automated payments or subscription, PotPotAck OÜ will not be responsible of refunding such transactions that took place after the service was cancelled.
8. Overage Charges
Our service plans are designed to accommodate the majority of usage scenarios taking into account the needs of our customers. However, your usage may vary and require additional allocations, specifically in the areas of storage and traffic. On cPanel hosting and Virtual Private Servers We will never charge you automatically if your account requires more resources. You must keep your email address updated within our client area, so that you may receive notifications when your account reaches certain limits determined solely by our system, ie. bandwidth exceed warning at 80% at which time you may contact us to purchase a higher transfer quota for your account. If you do not contact us, the system will suspend your site if your allotments are exceeded. On Dedicated Servers and Colocation services you will be invoiced and charged for the overage. A courtesy email may be sent to let you know of the abnormal usage.
9. Refunds/Account Termination
If, for any reason, PotPotAck OÜ fails to deliver said services, a prorated refund will be issued. No refunds will be issued if abuse of our stated policies forces PotPotAck OÜ to suspend or terminate your services prematurely.
In the event you request account cancellation, once your service has been cancelled your account may become inactive. If for any other reason your account becomes suspended and remains suspended we reserve the right to terminate your account at any time after the invoice is overdue.
