Your information will be securely held in our database so long as your account exists (and up to thirty days after you have requested deletion). Your hereby declare all information provided is accurate and up-to-date.

2. Billing & Payments

Definition of Billing Terms

“Active Services” shall be defined as any product or service that is owned by your account and is not deleted. Please take note that your servers and other products are still considered “Active Services” even when they are in the ‘stopped’ state; if the product is visible in your account then it is considered to be active. “Rolling Month” shall be defined as the period exactly one calendar month from the start date - for example 14th March to the 14th April. “Calendar Month” shall be defined as the time between the first day and the last day of any month on the calendar. “Billing Period” shall be defined as one calendar month.

Payment Options

We offer two distinct payment options for ServerFlex services - pay hourly and pay monthly. Pay hourly allows you flexibility to run and stop services at any time and only pay for the times that server was active on your account. Pay monthly, on the opposite side allows you to purchase services for an entire month (for example from the 14th March to the 14th April).

To help you make a better decision about which billing type is right for you, we will briefly explain how each method of billing works: * Pay hourly works on charging your account a small amount each hour your service is running, and then stops charging you when you delete that service. All pay hourly plans have monthly caps so if you leave the service running you will always know the maximum you will be paying each Calendar Month. Monthly caps for hourly plans are calculated on Calendar Months, not Rolling Months, this is an important distinction. * Pay monthly is simpler than pay hourly - you commit to a Rolling Month worth of services, for example if you purchase a monthly service on the 3rd June, your account will be charged a single fee on the 3rd June and no more charges will be made against your account for that service until your Renewal Date. This renewal date will be exactly one month after (if possible, otherwise to the closest available date), 3rd July for the given example, at which time your account will once again be charged for your service if your service is scheduled for renewal. (By default monthly services are set to renew).

There are unique and separate timelines for what happens to your services in the event that your account runs out of credit and/or you choose not to renew your services. - Pay hourly services will follow the following timeline: - Service expires - this could be that you have decided not to renew your service and/or your account has run out of credit. This service will be paused and a notification email will be sent. - First warning - this will occur twelve (12) hours after the service was paused. - Second warning - this will occur twenty-four (24) hours after the service was paused. - Deletion - this will occur thirty-six (36) hours after the service was paused. At this time all data will be irrecoverable. - Pay monthly services will follow the following timeline: - Service expires - this could mean that you have chosen not to renew your service and/or your account does not have suitable funds and/or your account payment method failed when charged. Your service will be paused and a notification email will be sent. - First warning - this will occur twenty-four (24) hours after the service was paused. - Second warning - this will occur forty-eight (48) hours after the service was paused. - Deletion - this will occur seventy-two (72) hours after the service was paused. At this time all data will be irrecoverable.

We reserve the right to cancel, suspend or delete any services that are not fully paid for within our strict payment terms - additionally we hold no liability for any data loss that may be incurred through failure to pay for all bills. IP addresses and sub domains may change if your services are paused.

We reserve the right to charge any payment methods on your account if your account is negative - this may be without notice.

From time to time we may make errors and not charge your payment method for services on your account - these situations are rare, but we reserve the right to charge your payment method(s) after the fact for the time your account ran services.

Our services are provided through loading credit into your account using payment methods such as Debit Card, Credit Card, PayPal or Bitcoin. Payments which are loaded into your account are usually non-refundable (outside the policy setout in our Refunds Policy). From time to time, at the complete discretion of ServerFlex. users may be permitted to withdraw unused credit from your account. This will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis. The minimum allowed to withdraw credit from your account shall be 10.00 (GBP, USD, EUR), of credit accrued through an accepted form (see exclusions below). If you would like to start a request to withdraw credit from your account, please contact our support team. Credit which has been granted to your account, or promotional credit shall be excluded. Credit which has been earnt through referrals shall be granted this privilege.

Chargebacks

Charge backs are an issue for any online business - ServerFlex operates a strict policy on chargebacks: your account will be debited the amount charged in addition to any fees we have incurred. An administration fee of £10 will also be deducted from your account. Instead of performing a chargeback please contact our team, this will be beneficial to both parties.

Auto Renewals

Services provided by ServerFlex may come set to renew by default - this is to avoid any issues in your gaming experience. You hereby acknowledge that it is your responsiblity to check your services when they are deployed, and ensure you are happy with this setting.

Trial Servers

We offer all customers free trials for every game on the ServerFlex platform. We do this to ensure you are happy with the quality of service we provide before parting with your money. Trial servers that are left in the Auto Renew state will attempt to automatically upgrade to paid servers on expiry. This will only happen if you have a payment method attached to your account. Please ensure you disable Auto Renew on your trial server if you do not want your server to automatically convert on trial expiry.

3. Limitation of Liability
