5.2. Fair use is at the discretion of the Zampto administrative team, and you agree to accept any decision made by them. We will only enforce the fair use policy if necessary.

5.3. We reserve the right to refuse to provide a service in the event of abuse of free trial offers or refunds.

6. Services Stability

6.1 Zampto is committed to minimizing maintenance and downtime of its infrastructure to ensure high service availability.

6.2 Services Performance

In the event of slowdowns on our services, for paying users with active subscriptions, so recurring paid plans, it is possible to request up to 1-6 additional days of service. Such requests will be evaluated by our staff according to the slowdowns experienced on the nodes or servers.

6.3 Bandwidth Guarantee

Zampto does not guarantee any minimum bandwidth inbound and outbound.

7. Hosting

7.1 Zampto offers a generic hosting service available at hosting.zampto.net that includes but is not limited to:

• Database hosting
  • Server hosting system (by server we mean docker containers that are equipped with dedicated (allocation) ports).

7.2 Server types (The types of services and things that can be hosted on Zampto, officially supported):

• Minecraft Servers (Java)
• Python apps or based stuff
• NodeJS apps or based stuff
• Discord Bots (Python or NodeJS)
• Uptime Kuma

7.3 Specific limitations

We cannot guarantee that it is possible to host anything on our hosting, but we do guarantee that it is possible to host Minecraft servers, Uptime Kuma, and that we support Discord Bots, NodeJS and Python via specific server types, but not everything may work properly as they are not per-user dedicated virtual servers (VPS) or physical servers with a dedicated public IP (IPv4 and IPv6) for a each user, but they are docker containers with a shared public IP (IPv4 and if available IPv6) and a dedicated public port (allocation).

7.4 Uptime guarantee

Zampto does not guarantee a minimum uptime for services and nodes. During the creation of a server or database the user can choose the node, each node is a different instance (physical server or VPS), often obtained from different providers, hosted in different locations, regions or countries, consequently Zampto cannot guarantee minimum uptime, as it can vary and be different for each node.

7.5 Automatic server deletion

Users on the free tier of Zampto, are affected by the system of automatic deletion of inactive servers, how does it work and what are the steps?

1. When it is detected that a server has been inactive for more than 32 days, an alert appears on hosting.zampto.net and a warning email is sent.

   2. If the server is still inactive after 36 days, a second warning email is sent and the alert on hosting.zampto.net is updated.
   3. After 39 days, if the server is still down, the server is deleted, the resources allocated to the server are returned to the user and an email is sent.

   How can this be prevented?

   To prevent it just use your server from the Zampto dashboards, and when you receive an alert, to resolve it just do any action, such as renaming, opening, deleting, uploading any file to the server, and within 5 minutes maximum the alert will disappear.

Note: Users not on the free tier are not affected by this system of auto-deleting inactive servers.

7.6 Data security and availability

It is the user's responsibility to make periodic backups and save them outside Zampto. Zampto is not responsible for malfunctions, bugs or anything else that may cause a loss or corruption of data, downtime and data leakage (theft).

8. Payments and Invoicing

8.1 Payment Methods Zampto officially accepts payments via:

• PayPal
• Crypto
• Credit, Debit and Prepaid Card

Payments are only valid if made through our official websites.

8.2 Credit System

Zampto Hosting uses a credit-based system for paid plans. For example, when a user wants to purchase additional resources (Memory, Disk, CPU, etc.) for one or more months, they must top up their account with money (Euros). The system will then use the available credit to complete purchases made manually by the user, deducting the amount from their credit balance. These purchases (meaning subscriptions) will be automatically renewed unless the user manually cancels them or disables auto-renewal (which is enabled by default), as long as sufficient credit is available.

8.3 Insufficient credit

If the credit is insufficient and the user has an active paid plan (meaning a monthly subscription with auto-renewal enabled)—when the system attempts to renew the subscription but finds the credit balance too low, the subscription will be suspended. If there are active servers, all of them will be suspended.

When the user logs back into the hosting platform, they will be prompted with a screen offering two options:

1. Renew the subscription by topping up their credit balance to unsuspend the servers and continue using the service.

2. Download data and delete one or more servers until the total resource usage falls within the Free Tier limits and downgrade to the Free Tier.

   If the user takes no action—neither renewing the subscription nor managing the servers as described—within 14 days of the subscription's expiration and the suspension of the servers, the system will automatically delete all servers and downgrade the account to the Free Tier limits and resources.

Note: It is currently not possible to buy paid plans on Zampto's hosting, this section was added in advance.

8.4 Acceptance of Terms of Service and Privacy Policy Users accept these terms of service and our privacy policy automatically upon purchasing, using or visiting our services, infrastructure or network.

9. Refund Policy

9.1 Period and conditions

A refund can be requested within 15 days of payment. However, if the purchased service has been used for prohibited purposes (as listed in Section 4), no refund will be issued. Alternatively, only a partial refund, meaning a percentage of the payment, may be granted at the discretion of the staff. Refunds are entirely at the discretion of the staff, and any refund request can be denied, granted fully, or granted only in part, even if it would otherwise be eligible.

9.2 Maximum Refunds

A maximum of 2 refunds can be requested every 30 days.

Zampto is not responsible in the event that one or more of its databases, websites, services, systems, or servers are breached or hacked, resulting in the exposure or theft of user data.
