Service and Usage Agreement

HomepageService and Usage Agreement
  1. Parties
    The Parties shall be referred to as Kariha Web Agency, briefly as Kariha in this agreement. This agreement is accepted and confirmed when placing an order through the website kariha.net.

  2. Terms of Service
    • Membership
      Customers are required to provide accurate information when creating a member account. The information must be accurate to avoid issues during the invoicing process. If intentional or unintentional incorrect information is detected in the member's details, Kariha reserves the right to withhold activation or freeze the account until the information is corrected.

    • Software
      Kariha delivers the software as described on the website or in a special agreement. Software includes specific options within itself. Technical support, software development, and usage assistance are provided for a separate fee, as specified in the special agreement. The customer acknowledges and commits to paying 100 times the license fee if the software provided is accessed, duplicated, or distributed, whether paid or free, by third parties.

      • Sub-Links in the Software
        For websites created using the ready-made site option, a Kariha link is present under the site, unless the link removal fee is paid. If the link or links under the site are removed without paying the fee, all services will be suspended without prior notice. Services will be reactivated upon payment of the link removal fee.

    • Traffic
      Your traffic usage varies according to the selected packages and the service used. The monthly traffic allocation for your chosen package resets on the 1st of each month. If your traffic quota is exceeded, your account will be suspended until the next month. If you wish to reactivate your account, you can upgrade your package to a higher bandwidth one.

    • Reseller Hosting
      Reseller customers are responsible for providing support to their own customers and cannot request support from Kariha for their customers. Additionally, they are responsible for the security of their own customers. Kariha is not responsible for any issues that may occur to the customers of reseller users.

    • Spam
      We are against sending unwanted emails. Accounts of users sending spam emails will be closed without prior warning when identified. For Hosting and Reseller Hosting services, the daily sending limit is 240 emails. This limit includes emails sent to authorized users. Services hosting accounts with email addresses leading to blacklisting of our IP address will be terminated swiftly. Accounts terminated due to spam will not be refunded.

    • Backup
      Kariha regularly backs up its customers' accounts. Backups are taken for the previous two days separately. While Kariha provides this backup service, customers are responsible for creating backups themselves in case of hardware failures (such as hard disk failure), force majeure events (fire, earthquake, flood, etc.), or other reasons preventing access to their backups. In case of customer request, Kariha can restore backups for free once within 1 month. Subsequent requests for backup restoration will incur a fee.

    • Dedicated Server & Managed Server & VPS & Cloud VPS
      Kariha will deliver the server introduced in the promotion within 24 hours after payment is made. For dedicated servers, Kariha is responsible for ensuring that the server operates and is accessible. For managed servers, Kariha is responsible for the necessary maintenance and management to ensure optimal performance. In recurring 30-day agreements, if the CUSTOMER does not notify Kariha of the cancellation request at least 7 days prior to the billing date, the contract will renew monthly.

      Kariha is not responsible for actions taken on the server or for any data stored on the server. In the event of an "abuse" situation on the server, the customer must provide the requested information within 24 hours. If the customer does not respond, the server will be suspended until the "abuse" situation is resolved. This 24-hour period may be waived in cases of heavy spamming or attacks.

      For this service type, port numbers 25 and 465 can be opened after the first 30 days and payment. After the 30-day period, requests can be made following payment of the invoice. However, the creation of a request does not guarantee the opening of the ports.

    • Hosting & Hosting Services
      Web Host customers cannot sell their accounts to others or sell Kariha services to other users. Web Hosting customers cannot request free installations. Our duty is to provide our customers with the highest accessibility and reliable hosting. Hosting service is meant for hosting a website; any usage beyond this purpose may result in a warning, suspension, or termination. Unauthorized sharing, copying, or publishing of products, photos, videos, books, and other copyrighted works that are illegal or require restricted licenses is not allowed. If Kariha identifies such behavior, the customer's account will be closed without prior notice. In cases where shared web hosting services cause issues on the server, Kariha can suspend or terminate the related hosting account. Kariha will assist in the migration of the site when a customer upgrades to a VPS or Server.

    • Domain Name
      Domain names registered through Kariha are managed through the customer panel. Tasks such as creating DNS records, generating EPP codes, and changing contact information are performed by the customer. Kariha will attempt to assist the customer with tasks they cannot perform. The customer is responsible for forwarding documents to the email address info@kariha.net and confirming their delivery.

  1. Support
    All support requests must be made through the customer panel and include the required information. Reseller and Server customers cannot receive technical support for the sites they host (excluding server-related issues).
