You represent and warrant to Hostinger that all information you provide when creating your Account is accurate, current and complete. You agree to maintain and promptly update Account information and any other information you provide to Hostinger, to keep it accurate, current and complete.

For the avoidance of doubt, the individual or entity whose data is listed in the ‘Account information’ section of Account is considered to be the owner of the Account and the data and Services contained therein (excluding the domain names, if any). Domain names are owned as set out in applicable ICANN and other rules, and we will assist domain registrants to the extent permitted by the applicable rules and regulations. If your Account contains domain names registered with us in the name of a third party, and that third party (domain name registrant) requests access to the management of those domain names, we may comply with the domain name registrant’s instructions and provide them with access to those domain names.
It is your obligation to ensure that you correctly indicate ownership of your Account. If there is a dispute about ownership, the access to the Account may be blocked until the parties to the dispute agree on a resolution, or until the matter is finally resolved by the competent authority. We are not liable for any damages of any nature and type suffered by the Customer or any third party that may result from an ownership dispute or from the blocking of the Account.
Account security. You are solely responsible for all the activity on your Account. You agree to:
(i) keep your Account secure and follow our security recommendations, including, but not limited to, using strong passwords that adhere to industry-standard security criteria, keeping different login credentials for different Accounts and service providers, changing your password regularly for each Account, enabling two-factor authentication for an added layer of security;
(ii) maintain the confidentiality of your password and other information related to the security of your Account. In the event of loss or disclosure of any means of authentication, you must immediately take available steps to secure your Account and Services (for example, change the means of authentication concerned);

(iv) be solely responsible for ensuring the security and compliance of any third-party applications or tools you connect to your Hostinger account, in accordance with applicable standards and regulations;
(v) notify Hostinger immediately of any breach of security or unauthorized use of your Account.

Account sharing. The Services allow you to grant access (depending on permissions granted) to your Account to another Hostinger customer. You may revoke any person’s ability to access your Account at any time.
By authorizing any person to access your Account, you acknowledge and agree that:
(i) you have an established and trusted business or personal relationship with such a person;
(ii) you voluntarily authorize such person to access and (or) make changes to your Account;
(iii) depending on permissions granted, such person may be able to view personal information that you have provided in your Account, including billing information (but excluding full payment method information);

(v) in case you separately agree (allow) that such a person would contact Customer Service on your behalf, such person will be able to contact our Customer Service, receive information and (or) manage Services on your behalf using our Customer Service and access your chat history (including any personal and other information contained therein). Note that such a person in any case will not be allowed to perform certain actions, such as view or change your account credentials (like your password), delete your account or invite others to access your account;
(vi) you are assuming full legal and financial responsibility (and undertake to fully release Hostinger from any related liability) with respect to your decision to grant access to your Account to any person or with respect to any actions such person may take or fail to take with respect to your Account.
By requesting access to the Account of another Hostinger customer, you undertake to use such access solely in the best interest of and as authorized by the customer granting access.
Please note that Hostinger is not involved in the actual contract between a Hostinger customer granting access and the one requesting / receiving access to an Account. Should there be a dispute between the parties, you must address such dispute directly with the individual you are in contract with.

10. MONITORING OF CUSTOMER CONTENT AND CONSEQUENCES OF INAPPROPRIATE CONTENT
By using this Site and (or) any Service, you agree not to make available or accessible any illegal content or content that is incompatible with or violates the Agreement. Hostinger generally does not pre-screen Customer Content (whether posted to a website hosted by Hostinger or posted to this Site). However, Hostinger reserves the right (but undertakes no duty) to do so and decide whether any item of Customer Content is appropriate and (or) complies with this Agreement.
In cases where (as determined by Hostinger in its sole and absolute discretion) (i) you make available or accessible any material in violation of this Agreement or (ii) you otherwise violate this Agreement, or (iii) Hostinger has a reason to believe that you are a repeat offender, Hostinger may apply certain restrictions at any time and without prior notice.
Hostinger may apply the following restrictions:
(i) to remove any item of Customer Content, and (or)
(ii) to suspend or terminate Customer’s access to this Site, Account, Services, and (or)
(iii) to suspend or terminate the Account or Services (all or any part thereof).
If Hostinger applies the abovementioned restrictions, Hostinger may, in its sole and absolute discretion, remove and destroy any data and files (including back-up copies) stored by you on its servers, and has no obligation to provide you with such data and files.
You also acknowledge that such violations might be reported by Hostinger to relevant authorities (including to law enforcement) as determined by Hostinger in its sole discretion.
11. EUROPEAN UNION DIGITAL SERVICES ACT (“DSA”) SUPPLEMENTAL TERMS
This section sets out provisions, processes and disclosures that supplement the rest of the Agreement, as required under the DSA. DSA regulates the provision of certain digital intermediary services provided in the European Union (“EU”).
These provisions only apply to you if you are in the EU and (or) if you are using the Site or Services falling within the scope of the DSA. For the avoidance of doubt, other provisions of the Agreement are applicable to you in full extent. In the event of any conflict between the provisions set out in this section and the other provisions of the Agreement, the terms of this section shall prevail.
Rules of conduct. Customers are prohibited from hosting, providing, publishing or transmitting the Customer Content or otherwise engaging in any activity, which are incompatible with or violates this Agreement or any applicable laws in the EU or in any EU country, ("Illegal Content").
Content moderation overview. Hostinger, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to determine whether the Services are being used in relation to Illegal Content.
Hostinger may voluntarily take action against any Illegal Content. Hostinger may also receive notices through the Notice and Action Mechanism (described below) and (or) orders from EU authorities reporting the presence of alleged Illegal Content. Hostinger will process such orders and notices, and take necessary actions and (or) restrictions based on the available and received information and requirements of the DSA.
Upon becoming aware of the Illegal Content, Hostinger may enforce the restrictions mentioned in this section below or implement any other required restrictions and (or) actions. Hostinger shall be considered to have awareness of the Illegal Content where a submitted notice allows identification of the Illegal Content without the need of a detailed legal examination.
Notice and Action Mechanism and unfounded notices. Any person may report to Hostinger the presence, on this Site or on any Service, of content that it considers to be illegal in the EU or any EU country through the mechanism accessible here (“Notice and Action Mechanism”). Depending on the nature of the Service concerned by the notice, the way Hostinger processes and addresses such notice may differ.
If any person frequently provides manifestly unfounded notices through the Notice and Action Mechanism, Hostinger may suspend the processing of such notices. While evaluating such situations, Hostinger considers relevant facts and circumstances, which may include the volume of manifestly unfounded notices submitted within a certain period, the seriousness and (or) the impact of such behavior, etc. A notice may for instance be considered as manifestly unfounded if it is evident that it does not relate to Illegal Content and instead refers solely to personal and (or) subjective considerations.
EU Authorities orders. If you are an EU or EU country authority, please submit the orders by sending them to the email abuse@hostinger.com.
Measures and tools for review. Notices and orders, as well as actions taken in response thereto, if any, are generally subject to human review. However, Hostinger may also use some automated tools that help to process certain notices and orders, as well as to apply restrictions (e.g. suspension of Services). For notices from trusted flaggers indicating Illegal Content within the Services, automated systems will initiate immediate Services suspension. While direct human review is generally not required for these specific automated responses, all such actions remain subject to internal oversight.
Hostinger may also take preemptive action against the Account and (or) the Services (all or any part thereof), where we have determined, in our sole discretion, that they are being registered and (or) used for the purpose of abuse or fraud. We may use automated tools to identify high-risk Accounts and (or) Services and automate decisions such as suspension or cancellation thereof. We regularly review any and all automated / partially automated decisions of anti-abuse and anti-fraud tools to ensure they are applied in an objective, consistent and accurate manner.
Internal complaint-handling system. If you disagree with any content moderation decision by Hostinger, you may lodge a complaint electronically through email at compliance@hostinger.com. Hostinger handles all complaints in a timely, non-discriminatory, diligent, and non-arbitrary manner, with decisions supervised by qualified staff.
Point of contact. If you have any questions or queries about this section or any other DSA-related matters, you can contact us by email at compliance@hostinger.com.
12. NO SPAM POLICY
We prohibit the transmission of spam through our Services and monitor all traffic to and from our servers for signs of spamming. Spam includes unsolicited commercial or bulk messages sent via email, SMS, instant messaging or other channels without recipient’s prior consent to receive such communications (regardless of the personal identity and context of the recipient being relevant for the message or not). In order to use our Services, you must abide by all applicable laws and regulations, including the laws implementing ePrivacy Directive (Directive 2002/58/EC) or CAN-SPAM Act of 2003. This includes, as applicable, requirements that (i) commercial advertising and (or) bulk communication may only be sent to recipients who have “opted-in” to receive such messages; (ii) messages include a legitimate return address and reply-to address, the sender's physical address, and (iii) an opt-out method is provided in the message. Upon request by us, conclusive proof on compliance with applicable requirements may be required.
When evaluating your compliance with our no spam policy chapter and the Agreement, we are entitled to examine various factors, including recipients' reactions to the messages received (e.g. number of messages marked as spam), sender profile verification and authentication, behavioral indicators and sending patterns, domain and IP reputation checks. Also, for this purpose, we reserve the right to view and otherwise use the content and metadata associated with the messages.
If we determine, in our sole and absolute discretion, that the Customer has violated no spam policy chapter and (or) provisions of the Agreement, we have a right to suspend any related Services. In very limited cases, the Services may be restored subject to our decision (e.g. in cases where the violation was isolated) and the Customer shall be deemed to undertake to cease any spam activities.
In the event we determine, in our sole and absolute discretion, that the violation is manifestly abusive or has not stopped or repeated after Services have been restored the first time, we may, in our sole and absolute discretion, terminate the Services related to spam activities and (or) immediately terminate any Account, which is connected with any spam activities.
We encourage all recipients of messages generated from Services to report suspected spam. Suspected abuse can be reported by email abuse@hostinger.com.

15. LINKS TO THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES

Hostinger assumes no responsibility for the content, terms and conditions, privacy policies, or practices of any Linked Sites and does not monitor or modify their content. By using this Site or the Services, you expressly release Hostinger from all liability arising from your use of any Linked Sites.

Unless otherwise described on the Site, the existence of any links to Linked Sites does not constitute endorsement of such websites, their content, or their services and (or) products.
16. FEES, PAYMENTS, REFUNDS AND AUTO-RENEWAL
General terms. You agree that your Payment Method (as defined below) will be charged by one of Hostinger group companies (HOSTINGER BRASIL HOSPEDAGEM DE SITES LTDA (Brazilian entity); HOSTINGER PTE LTD (Singapore entity); HOSTINGER INTERNATIONAL LIMITED (Cyprus entity); PT WEB MEDIA TECHNOLOGY INDONESIA (Indonesia entity); HOSTINGER UK LIMITED (United Kingdom entity); HOSTINGER US INC. (USA entity) and (or) any other Hostinger group entity, which is not listed herein) in the course of purchasing Services.
All our paid Services are provided on a subscription basis, unless indicated otherwise. You choose the period of Services and the Payment Method yourself when you purchase the Services. After your chosen first subscription period ends, the provision of Services will be auto-renewed for an additional (subsequent) subscription period (as described below in these Terms of Service). By purchasing Services on a subscription basis (e.g., monthly, annually, or otherwise) and submitting your payment-related information to make a purchase of the Services, you explicitly agree and consent that (i) Services will be auto-renewed until you disable auto-renewal feature, and (ii) you are authorizing recurring payments.
By purchasing our Services, you agree to provide accurate, complete and up-to-date all requested information and (or) documents (including personal and payment-related information, as well as information required for tax exemptions (such as VAT/GST number, etc.)), as well as you confirm that you are the rightful owner of such provided information and (or) documents or have the necessary rights and permissions to provide it. You also agree to maintain accuracy and completeness of this information throughout your use of Services.
As a general rule, requests and (or) claims related to payments made for the Services (including refunds) will be handled only if they are provided not later than within 30 (thirty) calendar days of the date of purchase of the Service, unless applicable laws provide otherwise.
Fees and payment of fees. You agree to pay any and all fees due for Services at the time you order the Services. The total amount of fees for a specific (selected by you) Services period shall be charged and paid by you upfront, unless otherwise specified on this Site (e.g., description of Services, etc.).
All fees (posted at this Site) for Services are exclusive of applicable taxes. Nevertheless, you agree that we may calculate, add and charge taxes (including value added tax and goods and services tax), duties and (or) other fees under laws applicable to you and (or) based on your bank and (or) the country indicated in your Account at the time of purchase (including renewal) of Services. You are responsible for all taxes, duties and fees levied on Services.
Prior to the purchasing and (or) renewing Services, we may initiate a pre-authorization transaction on your payment card provided as Payment Method. A nominal amount may be temporarily charged to validate the status of your payment card. Upon successful verification, this amount will be promptly reversed and will not reflect as a permanent transaction on your bank account. This practice helps ensure uninterrupted access to our Services and confirms the ongoing validity of your payment card (as Payment Method) for future billing cycles.
If for any reason Hostinger is unable to charge Payment Method linked to your Account for the full amount owed for the Services, or if Hostinger receives notification of a chargeback, reversal, payment dispute, or is charged a penalty for any fee it previously charged to your Payment Method, you agree that Hostinger may pursue all available lawful remedies in order to obtain payment, including immediate cancellation, termination or suspension, without notice to you, of any Services in your Account. In such a case, suspension, termination or cancellation of the Services could result in a loss of access to and use of your Services and (or) Account.
Hostinger also reserves the right to charge you reasonable “administrative fees” or “processing fees” for (i) tasks Hostinger may perform outside the normal scope of its Services, and (or) (ii) additional time and (or) costs Hostinger may incur in providing its Services, and (or) (iii) your non-compliance with Agreement (as determined by Hostinger in its sole and absolute discretion). Typical “administrative fees” or “processing fees” include, but are not limited to (i) Customer Service issues that require additional personal time or attention; (ii) UDRP action(s) in connection with your domain name(s) and (or) disputes that require accounting or legal services, whether performed by Hostinger staff or by third parties retained by Hostinger, and (or) (iii) recouping any and all costs and fees, including the fees for Services, incurred by Hostinger as the result of chargebacks or other payment disputes brought by you, your bank or payment service provider. These “administrative fees” or “processing fees” will be charged to the Payment Method linked to your Account.
Hostinger may offer Service-level pricing in various currencies. However, payment processing is supported by currencies displayed on this Site ("Supported Currency"). If the currency selected is a Supported Currency, then the payment will be processed in the Supported Currency and the fees displayed during the checkout process will be the actual amount processed and submitted to your bank for payment. If the currency selected is not a Supported Currency, then the payment will be processed in USD or EUR and the fees displayed during the checkout process will be an estimated conversion price at the time of purchase. In either case (whether the currency selected is a Supported Currency or not), if the payment is processed in a currency that differs from the currency of your bank account, you may be charged exchange rate conversion fees by your bank.
In addition, due to time differences between (i) the time you complete the checkout process, and (ii) the time the payment is processed, and (iii) the time the payment posts to your bank statement, the conversion rates may fluctuate and Hostinger makes no representations or warranties that (i) the amount submitted to your bank for payment will be the same as the amount posted to your bank statement (in the case of Supported Currency) or (ii) the estimated conversion price will be the same as either the amount processed or the amount posted to your bank statement (in the case of non-Supported Currency), and you agree to waive any and all claims based upon such discrepancies (including any and all claims for a refund based on the foregoing).
Change of fees. Hostinger expressly reserves the right to change or modify its fees (including Services’ renewal fees displayed at this Site at the time of your first purchase) for Services at any time, and such changes or modifications shall be posted online at this Site or otherwise communicated to you and shall be effective once the Services in question come up for renewal as further described below, without need for further notice to you. You accept the new fees by continuing to use the Services after the changes or modifications take effect.
Payment methods. Except as prohibited in any applicable (Service-specific) agreement, you shall pay for Services by utilizing any of the valid and eligible payment methods specified here or via credits in Hostinger Balance, if applicable (each individually “Payment Method” and collectively “Payment Methods”).
Your Payment Method linked to your Account must be kept valid at all times if you have any active Services in your Account. By adding Payment Method to your Account, you (i) represent that Payment Method you use is yours or that you are specifically authorized by its owner to use it for the purchase of Services and that any payment-related information you provide to Hostinger is true and accurate, and (ii) authorize Hostinger to charge the Payment Method(s) linked to your Account, and (iii) authorize Hostinger to charge you for any paid Services you chose when making a purchase.
Once you click the “Complete Payment” button in respect of the Payment Methods linked to your Account that offer the “Complete Payment” option, you will automatically place the order for chosen Services and such Payment Method linked to your Account will be charged. Confirmation of that order will be sent to the email address indicated in your Account.
Auto-renewal. In order to ensure that you do not experience an interruption or loss of Services, all Services include an auto-renewal feature, unless otherwise specified on the Site. Auto-renewal automatically renews the applicable Services at the end of each subscription period for a subsequent subscription period, the length of which is equal to the most recent subscription period before renewal or the initial subscription period (when the Services were purchased at the first time), or any shorter subscription period of the applicable Services, which at that time is available for purchase on this Site.
While the settings (Charge Date, etc.) for auto-renewal depend on the type of Services and length of subscription period, auto-renewal is a default setting. Therefore, unless you disable the auto-renewal before the renewal payment is charged (“Charge Date”), Hostinger will automatically renew the applicable Services when it comes up for renewal and will charge the Payment Method linked to your Account at then-current fees for relevant Services. You acknowledge and agree that such fees may be higher or lower than the fees for the initial subscription period and (or) most recent subscription period before renewal.
Charge Date depends on the type of Services and length of subscription period. In any case, Hostinger charges the Payment Method linked to your Account before (e. g., from 30 (thirty) to 0 (zero) calendar days before) the end of the current subscription period. If we cannot charge the renewal payment at the scheduled Charge Date, we may make additional attempts to charge your Payment Method(s) linked to your Account until the current subscription period ends.
We have the right, but not an obligation, to inform you via email about the upcoming auto-renewal before the Charge Date (e.g., Customers having subscriptions for 1 (one) month period will not be informed).
For auto-renewal, you always need to have one Payment Method added to your Account that is designated as default. You can also add an additional Payment Method(s) to your Account that, you consent, can be charged by Hostinger automatically if your default Payment Method does not work for some reason in order to ensure that your Services keep running.
In order to check the auto-renewal settings applicable to you and your Services, simply log into your Account. You may enable or disable the auto-renewal at any time (instructions on how to disable automatic renewal are here).
However, should you disable the auto-renewal and fail to manually renew your Services before the end of the then-current subscription period, your Services will terminate upon expiration of the then-current subscription period. You acknowledge and agree that it is your sole responsibility to modify and maintain your Account settings, including (i) setting your renewal options, and (ii) ensuring your Payment Method(s) are current and valid, and agree that your failure to do so may result in the interruption or loss of Services, and Hostinger shall not be liable to you or any third party regarding this.
In addition, Hostinger may participate in “account updater services or programs” supported by your payment card provider (and ultimately dependent on your issuing bank’s participation). If you are enrolled in an auto-renewal and we are unable to successfully charge your payment card (as Payment Method), your payment card provider (or your bank) may notify us of updates to your payment card details. In accordance with “account updater services or programs” requirements, in the event that we are notified of the updates to your payment card details, we reserve the right (but have no obligation) to update your payment card (as Payment Method) in your Account automatically on your behalf. Hostinger makes no guarantees that it will request or receive updated payment card details.
Refunds. All fees for Services are non-refundable (even if your Services are suspended, terminated or restricted in any other manner, or transferred prior to the end of the Services’ subscription period), unless otherwise expressly specified in the Refund Policy.
All requests for refunds will be handled only if they are provided in accordance with terms and conditions of Refund Policy, which includes Services available for refund.
You acknowledge and agree that in a case where refunds are issued to your Payment Method, Hostinger's issuance of a refund invoice is the only confirmation that Hostinger has submitted your refund to the Payment Method charged at the time of the purchase and that Hostinger has absolutely no control over when the refund will be applied towards your Payment Method. You further acknowledge and agree that the Payment Method and (or) payment service provider and (or) bank associated with your Payment Method establishes and regulates the time frames for posting your refund.
In the event a refund is issued to your Payment Method and the Payment Method and (or) payment service provider and (or) bank associated with your Payment Method imposes any limitations on refunds (including limitations as to the timing of the refund or the number of refunds allowed), then Hostinger, in its sole and absolute discretion, reserves the right to issue the refund in the form of credits in Hostinger Balance.
Hostinger also has the right, but not the obligation, to offer the credits in Hostinger Balance for Customers seeking refunds even if there are no above-described limitations on refunds. For the avoidance of doubt, any and all refunds processed via the issuance of credits in Hostinger Balance are made at sole Hostinger’s discretion and are not mandatory upon the Customer’s request.
Alternative Payment Methods. Hostinger offers a variety of alternative payment methods through a variety of international payment service providers (“IPSP”). In the event you select an IPSP, you represent that you have already agreed to any and all of the IPSP’s applicable agreements prior to completing your purchase of Services.
You also agree to allow the IPSP to debit the full amount of your purchase of Services from the selected bank account, e-wallet account (including payment card(s), bank account(s) or other allowed payment method(s) linked to your e-wallet account) or any other type of account associated with the selected IPSP (including, but not limited to prepaid cards and mobile payments) (collectively “Funding Sources”).
In addition, you agree to allow the selected IPSP to debit, if applicable, an exchange rate conversion fee, as well as any other fees or charges applicable in accordance with your agreements with IPSP (collectively “IPSP Fees”) from your Funding Sources. You understand and agree that IPSP Fees are subject to change at any time by the IPSP without notice to you by Hostinger.
It is your responsibility to keep your Funding Sources current and funded. You acknowledge and agree that the IPSP reserves the right to decline a payment for any reason (including payments that fail to go through as a result of your Funding Sources no longer existing or not holding available and (or) sufficient funds) and, in such event, neither IPSP nor Hostinger shall be liable to you or any third party regarding the same.
You acknowledge that Hostinger will not provide the Services purchased by you until Hostinger receives confirmation of full payment for Services from the IPSP through its associated payment service provider. You acknowledge and agree that there may be a gap of time between the time you place an order and the time the IPSP confirms payment through its associated payment service provider. If Hostinger does not receive confirmation of payment from the IPSP through its associated payment service provider within 14 (fourteen) calendar days from the order placement date, your order may be cancelled, at which time you will need to commence the purchase of Services process again.
In the event that you would like to cancel payment for a pending order, you may cancel the order through your Account. Payments received for such cancelled orders will be automatically issued as credits in Hostinger Balance.
If at the time Hostinger receives confirmation of payment from IPSP (through its associated payment service provider) either (i) the Services (including domain names) are no longer available for purchase, or (ii) a pending order has been cancelled in our systems, or (iii) the amount indicated in the confirmation of payment does not match the amount of the pending order, and as a result of any of the above circumstances your purchase is either over-funded or under-funded, Hostinger may automatically issue a partial refund for an overpaid amount (in the case of over-funding) or a full refund (in the case of under-funding) as credits in Hostinger Balance.
You acknowledge and agree that the IPSP reserves the right not to refund IPSP Fees associated with a refunded transaction. Accordingly, any refunds issued by Hostinger will be net of the IPSP Fees.
Hostinger Balance. You can verify your available credits in Hostinger Balance at any time by logging into your Account. In the event that your Account contains credits in Hostinger Balance, you may apply any available credits in Hostinger Balance to any future purchase in your Account. Credits in Hostinger Balance will be applied based on the currency selected at the time of purchase or renewal of Services.
You acknowledge and agree that credits in Hostinger Balance available in your Account (i) are non-transferrable and they may only be used in the Account, in which they were acquired, and (ii) will be held by Hostinger and they will not accrue and Hostinger will not pay any interest for your benefit, and (iii) may expire. Credits in Hostinger Balance will expire after 2 (two) years from their issuance. In the event that your Account is terminated, you acknowledge and agree that any remaining available credits in Hostinger Balance will be forfeited.
In the event that your Account contains credits in Hostinger Balance, you hereby authorize Hostinger to utilize any available credits in Hostinger Balance to any outstanding fees (including for the purpose of charging auto-renewal payment for Services) related to your Account and (or) Services.
Regardless of the amount of credits in Hostinger Balance available in your Account, Hostinger is not responsible for the loss of Services resulting from an inability to collect fees for Services from your Payment Method(s) and (or) credits in Hostinger Balance.
