1. Introduction
Welcome to Nathan Allan Co., where we provide high-quality Website Hosting Services designed to help businesses establish and maintain a strong online presence.
This document outlines the Terms of Service (the “Agreement”) between you (the “Client,” “you,” or “your”) and Nathan Allan Co. (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By accessing or using our Website Hosting Services, you agree to comply with and be legally bound by these Terms. We encourage you to carefully review this Agreement, as it forms a binding contract between you and Nathan Allan Co.
2. Definitions
For the purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth below:
- “Business Days” means Monday through Friday, excluding federal holidays observed by Nathan Allan Co.
- “Client Content” means all content, data, graphics, images, logos, text, and any other materials that you provide to Nathan Allan Co. or upload to your hosted website.
- “Services” means all website hosting services provided by Nathan Allan Co., including server space, bandwidth, security features, backups, and technical support.
- “Subscription” means the recurring billing arrangement under which you pay for Website Hosting Services on a monthly or annual basis.
3. Eligibility
By using our Website Hosting Services, you represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years of age and have the legal capacity to enter into a binding contract. If you are using our services on behalf of a company, organization, or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms.
If you do not meet these eligibility requirements, you are not authorized to access or use our services.
4. Relationship with Website Design Terms of Service
These Website Hosting Terms of Service are intended to be read and applied in conjunction with our Website Design Terms of Service. If you have contracted for both website hosting and website design services with Nathan Allan Co., the terms governing each service are complementary and collectively form the complete agreement between you and Nathan Allan Co.
In the event of any conflict between these Website Hosting Terms and the Website Design Terms, the Website Design Terms will govern the provision of website design services, while the Website Hosting Terms will apply to hosting-related services.
Important: Website Design Services are dependent upon active Website Hosting Services. Termination of your Website Hosting Services will automatically terminate any associated Website Design Services. See Section 21 (Termination) for details.
5. Modifications to These Terms
We reserve the right to modify, update, or replace any part of these Terms of Service at our sole discretion. We will provide at least fourteen (14) days’ notice before any material changes take effect. Notice will be provided via email or through your admin account.
If you do not agree with the updated Terms, you may cancel your Subscription within the notice period. Continued use of our services after the effective date of any changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

7. Service Availibility, Maintenance, and Downtime
7.1 Service Availability
We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to modify, suspend, or terminate any of our services, features, or materials provided through our platform at any time, with or without prior notice. We strive to maintain the availability and quality of our services; however, we cannot guarantee uninterrupted access.
7.2 Backup and Data Retention
We perform regular backups of your website, including files and databases, with a retention period of seven (7) days. These backups are stored on our servers and can be restored upon request, typically within 1-2 Business Days.
You do not have direct access to backups, and we recommend that you maintain a personal backup of your content. Upon cancellation or termination, all website data, including backups, will be permanently deleted within fourteen (14) calendar days.
We are not liable for any loss of data after service termination. It is your responsibility to ensure that any necessary content is saved before cancellation.
7.3 Scheduled Maintenance
We may perform scheduled maintenance to ensure the reliability and security of our Website Hosting Services. We will provide at least 48 hours’ notice prior to any planned maintenance. During scheduled maintenance, your website may experience temporary downtime, but we strive to minimize disruptions and keep downtime to four (4) hours or less.
7.4 Unplanned Outages
In the event of unplanned outages or emergency maintenance due to unforeseen technical issues, we will make reasonable efforts to restore service as quickly as possible. We are not responsible for downtime caused by third-party services, force majeure events, or issues beyond our control.
7.5 Bandwidth Usage and Traffic Policy
Our servers are optimized to support stable and consistent levels of traffic. In the event of a sudden traffic surge that significantly increases bandwidth demand:
- An additional fee may be required to ensure uninterrupted performance during peak periods.
- If your website consistently receives high traffic volumes, we may revise your Subscription to reflect the additional resources needed.
8. Admin Account Access and Limitations
8.1 Admin Account Features
Your admin account provides full backend access to manage and configure your website and services with Nathan Allan Co. You can access your admin account through a specific login page on your website’s domain. The admin dashboard gives you access to:

If you suspect any unauthorized access or security breaches, you must notify us immediately, preferably within 24 hours, so that we can take the necessary steps to secure your account.
We are not liable for any loss, damage, or disruption of service resulting from unauthorized access due to your failure to maintain the confidentiality of your credentials.

Any unauthorized modifications that result in broken functionality, errors, or downtime will be your sole responsibility. We may charge a repair or restoration fee at our standard hourly rate to resolve any issues caused by such changes.
We reserve the right to temporarily suspend or limit administrative access if unauthorized changes are detected that compromise the security, performance, or integrity of the hosting environment.
9. Subscription Billing and Payment
9.1 Subscription Requirements
To maintain uninterrupted access to our Website Hosting Services, you are required to maintain an active Subscription, billed either monthly or annually, depending on the plan you select. By agreeing to these Terms, you authorize us to automatically charge the card on file for your selected Subscription on a recurring basis.
9.2 Payment Responsibility
You are solely responsible for ensuring that your payment information is accurate and up-to-date within our billing portal. We may notify you (or Stripe, our payment processor) if your payment method is approaching expiration or requires updating.
If a payment attempt is declined, we will make multiple attempts to process the transaction. If the issue persists, your hosting services may be suspended or terminated, which could result in your website going offline. We will make reasonable efforts to contact you and provide an opportunity to resolve the payment issue before taking such action.
9.3 Changes to Subscription Price
We reserve the right to modify the pricing structure of our Subscription plans. You will receive at least thirty (30) days’ advance notice of any pricing changes via email or through your admin account. If you do not agree to the new pricing, you may cancel your Subscription without penalty before the new rates take effect. Continued use after the new pricing takes effect constitutes acceptance of the updated rates.
9.4 Usage Restrictions and Fair Use
To maintain fair access and platform stability for all customers, we may implement usage restrictions based on your utilization of our services. If your usage exceeds the limits of your selected plan, we will notify you and provide the opportunity to either reduce your usage or upgrade your plan. In cases where additional resources are required, we may increase your Subscription price to reflect the increased server usage.

We will notify you of any significant security threats or vulnerabilities we identify that may affect your website. However, we are not responsible for fixing issues caused by outdated or insecure website components provided by third parties (such as plugins or themes).
If your website is compromised due to a security vulnerability, we will assist in restoring the website to a secure state. Additional charges may apply if the issue is due to external or outdated content.

Refunds may only be considered in exceptional circumstances, such as:

- Duplicate or erroneous charges
For full details, please review our complete Refund Policy on our website.
24. Disputes and Jurisdiction
In the event of any dispute arising from or related to this Agreement, we are committed to resolving the matter fairly and cooperatively.

We encourage you to contact us directly to engage in good-faith discussions. Both parties agree to attempt informal resolution before pursuing formal proceedings.
24.2 Arbitration
If informal resolution cannot be reached within thirty (30) days of the initial dispute notice, either party may require that the dispute be resolved through final and binding arbitration. Arbitration will take place in Los Angeles County, California, and will be conducted in accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA).
The arbitration costs shall be shared equally by both parties unless the arbitrator determines otherwise. The arbitration decision shall be final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
24.3 Small Claims Exception
Notwithstanding the above, either party may bring a claim in small claims court if the dispute qualifies under applicable jurisdictional limits.
24.4 Governing Law
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of laws principles.

Neither party shall be held liable for any failure or delay in performance due to events beyond reasonable control, including but not limited to: natural disasters, acts of government, technical failures (internet outages, server failures), terrorism, pandemics, or strikes.
In the event of a Force Majeure event, the affected party will notify the other party as soon as reasonably practicable and will make reasonable efforts to minimize disruption. If such circumstances significantly affect the ability to deliver services for more than sixty (60) days, either party may terminate the affected services without penalty.
26. Class Action Waiver
You and Nathan Allan Co. agree that any disputes shall be resolved on an individual basis. By agreeing to these Terms, you waive the right to bring or participate in any class action lawsuit, class arbitration, or other collective action against Nathan Allan Co.
This Class Action Waiver applies to all Clients located within the United States and is enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
27. Severability
If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be severable from the rest of the Agreement. The invalidity of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions, which shall remain in full force and effect.
The section headings in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation of these Terms.
28. Entire Agreement
By using the Website Hosting Services provided by Nathan Allan Co., you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service.
