Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy

Purpose

This Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (the “Policy”) has been adopted by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (“ICANN”), is incorporated by reference into your Registration Agreement, and sets forth the terms and conditions in connection with a dispute between you and any party other than us (the registrar) over the registration and use of an Internet domain name registered by you. Proceedings under Paragraph 4 of this Policy will be conducted according to the Rules for Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (the “Rules of Procedure”), which are available at www.icann.org/udrp/udrp-rules-24oct99.htm, and the selected administrative-dispute-resolution service provider’s supplemental rules.

Your Representations

By applying to register a domain name, or by asking us to maintain or renew a domain name registration, you hereby represent and warrant to us that (a) the statements that you made in your Registration Agreement are complete and accurate; (b) to your knowledge, the registration of the domain name will not infringe upon or otherwise violate the rights of any third party; (c) you are not registering the domain name for an unlawful purpose; and (d) you will not knowingly use the domain name in violation of any applicable laws or regulations. It is your responsibility to determine whether your domain name registration infringes or violates someone else’s rights.

Cancellations, Transfers, and Changes

We will cancel, transfer or otherwise make changes to domain name registrations under the following circumstances:

• subject to the provisions of Paragraph 8, our receipt of written or appropriate electronic instructions from you or your authorized agent to take such action;
• our receipt of an order from a court or arbitral tribunal, in each case of competent jurisdiction, requiring such action; and/or
• our receipt of a decision of an Administrative Panel requiring such action in any administrative proceeding to which you were a party and which was conducted under this Policy or a later version of this Policy adopted by ICANN. (See Paragraph 4(i) and(k) below.)

We may also cancel, transfer or otherwise make changes to a domain name registration in accordance with the terms of your Registration Agreement or other legal requirements.

Mandatory Administrative Proceeding

This Paragraph sets forth the type of disputes for which you are required to submit to a mandatory administrative proceeding. These proceedings will be conducted before one of the administrative-dispute-resolution service providers listed at www.icann.org/udrp/approved-providers.htm (each, a “Provider”).

• Applicable Disputes. You are required to submit to a mandatory administrative proceeding in the event that a third party (a “complainant”) asserts to the applicable Provider, in compliance with the Rules of Procedure, that
  • your domain name is identical or confusingly similar to a trademark or service mark in which the complainant has rights; and
  • you have no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the domain name; and
  • your domain name has been registered and is being used in bad faith.
  In the administrative proceeding, the complainant must prove that each of these three elements are present.
• Evidence of Registration and Use in Bad Faith. For the purposes of Paragraph 4(a)(iii), the following circumstances, in particular but without limitation, if found by the Panel to be present, shall be evidence of the registration and use of a domain name in bad faith:
  • circumstances indicating that you have registered or you have acquired the domain name primarily for the purpose of selling, renting, or otherwise transferring the domain name registration to the complainant who is the owner of the trademark or service mark or to a competitor of that complainant, for valuable consideration in excess of your documented out-of-pocket costs directly related to the domain name; or
  • you have registered the domain name in order to prevent the owner of the trademark or service mark from reflecting the mark in a corresponding domain name, provided that you have engaged in a pattern of such conduct; or
  • you have registered the domain name primarily for the purpose of disrupting the business of a competitor; or
  • by using the domain name, you have intentionally attempted to attract, for commercial gain, Internet users to your web site or other on-line location, by creating a likelihood of confusion with the complainant’s mark as to the source, sponsorship, affiliation, or endorsement of your web site or location or of a product or service on your web site or location.
• How to Demonstrate Your Rights to and Legitimate Interests in the Domain Name in Responding to a Complaint.When you receive a complaint, you should refer to Paragraph 5 of the Rules of Procedure in determining how your response should be prepared. Any of the following circumstances, in particular but without limitation, if found by the Panel to be proved based on its evaluation of all evidence presented, shall demonstrate your rights or legitimate interests to the domain name for purposes of Paragraph 4(a)(ii):
  • before any notice to you of the dispute, your use of, or demonstrable preparations to use, the domain name or a name corresponding to the domain name in connection with a bona fide offering of goods or services; or
  • you (as an individual, business, or other organization) have been commonly known by the domain name, even if you have acquired no trademark or service mark rights; or
  • you are making a legitimate noncommercial or fair use of the domain name, without intent for commercial gain to misleadingly divert consumers or to tarnish the trademark or service mark at issue.
• Selection of Provider. The complainant shall select the Provider from among those approved by ICANN by submitting the complaint to that Provider. The selected Provider will administer the proceeding, except in cases of consolidation as described in Paragraph 4(f).
• Initiation of Proceeding and Process and Appointment of Administrative Panel. The Rules of Procedure state the process for initiating and conducting a proceeding and for appointing the panel that will decide the dispute (the “Administrative Panel”).
• Consolidation. In the event of multiple disputes between you and a complainant, either you or the complainant may petition to consolidate the disputes before a single Administrative Panel. This petition shall be made to the first Administrative Panel appointed to hear a pending dispute between the parties. This Administrative Panel may consolidate before it any or all such disputes in its sole discretion, provided that the disputes being consolidated are governed by this Policy or a later version of this Policy adopted by ICANN.
• Fees. All fees charged by a Provider in connection with any dispute before an Administrative Panel pursuant to this Policy shall be paid by the complainant, except in cases where you elect to expand the Administrative Panel from one to three panelists as provided inParagraph 5(b)(iv) of the Rules of Procedure, in which case all fees will be split evenly by you and the complainant.
• Our Involvement in Administrative Proceedings. We do not, and will not, participate in the administration or conduct of any proceeding before an Administrative Panel. In addition, we will not be liable as a result of any decisions rendered by the Administrative Panel.
• Remedies. The remedies available to a complainant pursuant to any proceeding before an Administrative Panel shall be limited to requiring the cancellation of your domain name or the transfer of your domain name registration to the complainant.
• Notification and Publication. The Provider shall notify us of any decision made by an Administrative Panel with respect to a domain name you have registered with us. All decisions under this Policy will be published in full over the Internet, except when an Administrative Panel determines in an exceptional case to redact portions of its decision.
• Availability of Court Proceedings. The mandatory administrative proceeding requirements set forth in Paragraph 4 shall not prevent either you or the complainant from submitting the dispute to a court of competent jurisdiction for independent resolution before such mandatory administrative proceeding is commenced or after such proceeding is concluded. If an Administrative Panel decides that your domain name registration should be canceled or transferred, we will wait ten (10) business days (as observed in the location of our principal office) after we are informed by the applicable Provider of the Administrative Panel’s decision before implementing that decision. We will then implement the decision unless we have received from you during that ten (10) business day period official documentation (such as a copy of a complaint, file-stamped by the clerk of the court) that you have commenced a lawsuit against the complainant in a jurisdiction to which the complainant has submitted under Paragraph 3(b)(xiii) of the Rules of Procedure. (In general, that jurisdiction is either the location of our principal office or of your address as shown in our Whois database. See Paragraphs 1 and 3(b)(xiii) of the Rules of Procedure for details.) If we receive such documentation within the ten (10) business day period, we will not implement the Administrative Panel’s decision, and we will take no further action, until we receive (i) evidence satisfactory to us of a resolution between the parties; (ii) evidence satisfactory to us that your lawsuit has been dismissed or withdrawn; or (iii) a copy of an order from such court dismissing your lawsuit or ordering that you do not have the right to continue to use your domain name.

All Other Disputes and Litigation

All other disputes between you and any party other than us regarding your domain name registration that are not brought pursuant to the mandatory administrative proceeding provisions ofParagraph 4 shall be resolved between you and such other party through any court, arbitration or other proceeding that may be available.

Our Involvement In Disputes

We will not participate in any way in any dispute between you and any party other than us regarding the registration and use of your domain name. You shall not name us as a party or otherwise include us in any such proceeding. In the event that we are named as a party in any such proceeding, we reserve the right to raise any and all defenses deemed appropriate, and to take any other action necessary to defend ourselves.

Maintaining the Status Quo

We will not cancel, transfer, activate, deactivate, or otherwise change the status of any domain name registration under this Policy except as provided inParagraph 3above.

Transfers During a Dispute

• Transfers of a Domain Name to a New Holder. You may not transfer your domain name registration to another holder (i) during a pending administrative proceeding brought pursuant to Paragraph 4 or for a period of fifteen (15) business days (as observed in the location of our principal place of business) after such proceeding is concluded; or (ii) during a pending court proceeding or arbitration commenced regarding your domain name unless the party to whom the domain name registration is being transferred agrees, in writing, to be bound by the decision of the court or arbitrator. We reserve the right to cancel any transfer of a domain name registration to another holder that is made in violation of this subparagraph.
• Changing Registrars. You may not transfer your domain name registration to another registrar during a pending administrative proceeding brought pursuant to Paragraph 4 or for a period of fifteen (15) business days (as observed in the location of our principal place of business) after such proceeding is concluded. You may transfer administration of your domain name registration to another registrar during a pending court action or arbitration, provided that the domain name you have registered with us shall continue to be subject to the proceedings commenced against you in accordance with the terms of this Policy. In the event that you transfer a domain name registration to us during the pendency of a court action or arbitration, such dispute shall remain subject to the domain name dispute policy of the registrar from which the domain name registration was transferred.

Policy Modifications

We reserve the right to modify this Policy at any time with the permission of ICANN. We will post our revised Policy at least thirty (30) calendar days before it becomes effective. Unless this Policy has already been invoked by the submission of a complaint to a Provider, in which event the version of the Policy in effect at the time it was invoked will apply to you until the dispute is over, all such changes will be binding upon you with respect to any domain name registration dispute, whether the dispute arose before, on or after the effective date of our change. In the event that you object to a change in this Policy, your sole remedy is to cancel your domain name registration with us, provided that you will not be entitled to a refund of any fees you paid to us. The revised Policy will apply to you until you cancel your domain name registration.

Domain Registration Terms

March 20st, 2023

Agreement

In this Service Agreement (“Agreement”) “you” and “your” refer to each customer, “we”, us” and “our” refer to macido.com/de and “Services” refers to the services provided by us. This Agreement explains our obligations to you, and explains your obligations to us for various Services. By selecting our Services you have agreed to establish an account with us for such Services. When you use your account or permit someone else to use it to purchase or otherwise acquire access to additional Services or to cancel your Services (even if we were not notified of such authorization), this Agreement covers such service or actions. By using the Services under this Agreement, you acknowledge that you have read and agree to be bound by all terms and conditions of this Agreement and any pertinent rules or policies that are or may be published by us. Please see also: ICANN’s Registrant Rights and Responsibilities: http://www.icann.org/en/resources/registrars/registrant-rights-responsibilities http://www.icann.org/en/resources/registrars/registrant-rights/educational

Selection of a Domain Name

We cannot and do not check to see whether the domain name you select, or the use you make of the domain name, infringes legal rights of any third party. We urge you to investigate to see whether the domain name you select or its use infringes legal rights of others, and in particular we suggest you seek advice of competent counsel. You may wish to consider seeking one or more trademark registrations in connection with your domain name. You should be aware that there is the possibility we might be ordered by a court to cancel, modify, or transfer your domain name. You should be aware that if we are sued or threatened with lawsuit in connection with your domain name, we may turn to you to hold us harmless and indemnify us.

Fees, Payment & Term

As consideration for the services you have selected, you agree to pay us the applicable service(s) fees. All fees payable hereunder are non-refundable unless we provide otherwise. As further consideration for the Services, you agree to: (1) provide certain current, complete and accurate information about you as required by the registration process and (2) maintain and update this information as needed to keep it current, complete and accurate. All such information shall be referred to as account information (“Account Information”). The fee for all domain registrations is variable and dependent on the TLD chosen. Pricing is displayed during the registration and renewal process. A one-year domain registration is included with 1-year or 3-year Macido hosting plans. A maximum of one included domain name registration is provided per macido account, regardless of the number of otherwise eligible plans. Downgrading from an annual or 3-year shared plan or Macido hosting plan to monthly shared hosting, or canceling your hosting plan within the term for which the domain registration is included, will result in a charge for the included domain registration at the then-current, non-promotional rate. The included domain cannot be combined with any other promotions or offers, and the list of domains available under this promotion is subject to change at any time without notice. Also, sale prices do not apply to domain transfers. You hereby grant us the right to disclose to third parties such Account Information. The Registrant, by completing and submitting the Domain Name Registration Agreement (“Registration Agreement”), represents that the statements in its application are true and that the registration of the selected Domain Name, so far as the Registrant is aware, does not interfere with or infringe upon the rights of any third party. The Registrant also represents that the Domain Name is not being registered for any unlawful purpose, including but not limited to distributing malware, abusively operating botnets, phishing, pharming, piracy, fraudulent or deceptive practices, counterfeiting or otherwise engaging in activity contrary to applicable law. The Registrant further represents that applicable WHOIS and Account information will be kept up to date. Willful provision of inaccurate or unreliable WHOIS or Account Information, willful failure to promptly update Account Information provided to Macido upon its change, or failure to respond for over fifteen (15) calendar days to inquiries by Macido concerning the accuracy of WHOIS or Account Information is a basis for cancellation of the registration.

Domain Transfers

You authorize Macido to act as your “Designated Agent” to approve each “Change of Registrant” on your behalf (both terms are defined in ICANN’s Transfer Policy). Also, we will automatically implement a 60-day domain transfer lock following a “Change of Registrant” per ICANN’s new Transfer Policy unless customer opts-out when submitting request.

Modifications To Agreement

You agree, during the period of this Agreement, that we may: (1) revise the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and (2) change the services provided under this Agreement. Any such revision or change will be binding and effective immediately on posting of the revised Agreement or change to the service(s) on our web site, or on notification to you by e-mail or regular mail as per the Notices section of this agreement, Section 20. You agree to review our web site, including the Agreement, periodically to be aware of any such revisions. If you do not agree with any revision to the Agreement, you may terminate this Agreement at any time by providing us with notice by e-mail or regular mail as per the Notices section of this agreement, Section 20. Notice of your termination will be effective on receipt and processing by us. You agree that, by continuing to use the Services following notice of any revision to this Agreement or change in service(s), you abide by any such revisions or changes. You further agree that we, in our sole discretion, may modify our Dispute Policy at any time. You agree that, by maintaining the reservation or registration of your domain name after modifications to the Dispute Policy become effective, you have agreed to these modifications. You acknowledge that if you do not agree to any such modifications, you may request that your domain name be deleted from the domain name database.

Modifications To Your Account

In order to change any of your account information with us, you must use your Account Identifier and Password that you selected when you opened your account with us. Please safeguard your Account Identifier and Password from any unauthorized use. In no event will we be liable for the unauthorized use or misuse of your Account Identifier or Password.

Domain Name Dispute Policy

If you reserved or registered a domain name through us, or transferred a domain name to us from another registrar, you agree to be bound by our current Domain Name Dispute Policy (“Dispute Policy”) which is incorporated herein and made a part of this Agreement by reference. The current version of the Dispute Policy may be found at our web site: https://macido.com/de/legal/domain-name-dispute-resolution-policy/. Please take the time to familiarize yourself with said policy.

Domain Name Disputes

You agree that, if the registration or reservation of your domain name is challenged by a third party, you will be subject to the provisions specified in the Dispute Policy in effect at the time of the dispute.

For any dispute, you agree to submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of your domicile, the courts of the geographic location indicated by your WHOIS information for your domain name, the courts of Macido LLC headquarters, and any other potentially applicable jurisdictions.

We and our contractors shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages resulting from the use or inability to use any of the Services or for the cost of procurement of substitute services.

The registrant agrees that we will not be liable for any loss of registration and use of registrant’s domain name, or for interruption of business, or any indirect, special, incidental, or consequential damages of any kind (including lost profits) regardless of the form of action whether in contract, tort (including negligence), or otherwise, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. In no event shall our maximum liability exceed five hundred ( $500.00) dollars.

Indemnity

You agree to release, indemnify, and hold Macido, its affiliates and business partners, and any applicable domain name registry, including without limitation VeriSign, Inc., Internet Domain Service BS Corp, Public Interest Registry, Global.Name Registry, and their respective subsidiaries, subcontractors and affiliates, and the directors, officers, employees and agents of each of them, harmless from all liabilities, claims and expenses, including attorney’s fees, of third parties relating to or arising under this Agreement, the Services provided hereunder or your use of the Services, including without limitation infringement by you, or someone else using the E-mail Service with your computer, of any intellectual property or other proprietary right of any person or entity, or from the violation of any of our operating rules or policy relating to the service(s) provided. You also agree to release, indemnify and hold said parties harmless pursuant to the terms and conditions contained in the Dispute Policy. When we are threatened with suit by a third party, we may seek written assurances from you concerning your promise to indemnify us; your failure to provide those assurances may be considered by us to be a breach of your Agreement and may result in deactivation of your domain name. This indemnity obligation shall survive the termination or expiration of the Agreement.

Breach

You agree that failure to abide by any provision of this Agreement, any operating rule or policy or the Dispute Policy provided by us, may be considered by us to be a material breach and that we may provide a written notice, describing the breach, to you. If within thirty (30) calendar days of the date of such notice, you fail to provide evidence, which is reasonably satisfactory to us, that you have not breached your obligations under the Agreement, then we may delete the registration or reservation of your domain name or terminate your e-mail account without further notice. Any such breach by you shall not be deemed to be excused simply because we did not act earlier in response to that, or any other breach by you.

No Guarantee

You agree that, by registration or reservation of your chosen domain name, such registration or reservation does not confer immunity from objection to either the registration, reservation, or use of the domain name.

Disclaimer of Warranties

Revocation

You agree that we may delete your domain name or terminate your right to use other Services if the information that you provided to register or reserve your domain name or register for other Services, or subsequently to modify it, contains false or misleading information, or conceals or omits any information we would likely consider material to our decision to register or reserve your domain name.

Renewal, Billing, and Expiration Policy

Customer’s new and transferred-in domain registrations will be set to automatically renew upon expiration. The credit or debit card used for registrations will default to “autopay,” and Customer’s card on file will be charged for future renewals. Customer will still have the option to change the renewal status in the account panel (choosing instead to allow expiration of the domain, or to receive an email notification of an impending expiration at which point inaction will result in expiration of the domain). Customers who have auto-renew enabled for a domain will be charged, and have the domain renewed, 31 days prior to the expiration date of the domain (your credit card on file will be immediately charged for the renewal amount). If the billing is unsuccessful, we will change the auto-renew status of the domain to “ask,” and you’ll be sent an email notice with instructions for renewal. You will have to manually re-enable the auto-renew status of your domain if billing is unsuccessful. Customers who have domains that are considered “auto-renew-only” by the registry will also be charged 31 days prior to the expiration date of the domain, but will renew automatically on the expiration date. In the event that a Domain expires, Macido will hold the expired Domain for up to 30 days as a courtesy and not as an obligation (contractual or otherwise). 30 days after expiration, the Domain will be placed in Redemption. During the Redemption period the Domain will be inaccessible and unable to be registered elsewhere. In order to bring a Domain out of Redemption, Subscriber must pay the Redemption Fee associated with each particular Domain expiration (fees are reflected in the chart above), as well as a Renewal Fee for the current year. Domain registration vouchers cannot be applied toward the cost of Redemption. If the Domain is not redeemed within 74 days of expiration, it will be set to Pending Delete status by the domain registry. After the Pending Delete status expires, the Domain will be released for registration. During the Pending Delete period, the Domain will be inaccessible and unrecoverable. Redemption fees vary according to each domain registry and are subject to change without notice. At least once per month prior; per week prior; and per week after expiration, Macido will remind Customer about these expiration dates by email. These emails will be sent to the email address selected in Customer’s Contact Preferences and to the email address of the Domain Registrant.

Whois Privacy Services

Please note that Macido’s privacy services are now governed by the Proxy Protection Agreement.

60-Day Transfer Opt-Out Information

ICANN’s Transfer Policy requires a 60-day transfer lock to apply to your domain name(s) in the event of any “Change of Registrant.” Macido currently locks your domain name for any change involving your WhoIs info, or when toggling your Proxy Protection privacy service on or off. This feature is designed to protect you. However, one way to avoid this 60-day lock is to opt out via Panel for that particular domain name before making any changes. By opting out of the 60-day transfer lock, you agree that the account owner and the registrant of the applicable domain name have opted out of any 60-day transfer lock that would otherwise be applied to your domain name per ICANN’s Transfer Policy due to a “Change of Registrant” as defined by ICANN, or by Macido as a result of any other WHOIS or privacy service changes. The opt out will only apply to this particular domain name in your account. To avoid ambiguity, the term “registrant” refers to the true individual and/or entity who registers a domain name and whose information is escrowed by Macido as valid whois information; this does not refer to any privacy service whose name replaces the true registrant’s identity in public Whois information (such as Proxy Protection). Macido is not responsible for any domain, account, or security issues that arise due to your decision to opt out of the 60-day lock. Please note that the parameters that trigger the 60-day transfer lock are subject to change without notice.

ICANN Domain Verification Policy

In order to fulfill our contractual obligations under ICANN’s 2013 RAA, Macido may send you a verification request to confirm your WHOIS contact information for all unverified domain registrations and Registrant contact modifications. The email will be sent from the email address “no-reply@macido.com/de”. You will have a 15-day window from the time of the contact change to verify the address. After 15 days, the domain(s) associated with this Registrant contact will be taken offline until the email address is verified.

Let’s Encrypt Terms of Service

Greetings! The Internet Security Research Group (ISRG) that manages Let’s Encrypt now requires Macido to act as the named party in their certificate agreements. ISRG has published a new Let’s Encrypt Subscriber Agreement, which we accept on behalf of our customers. Not so fast, though! We’re in this together, so we ask that you review and accept all of the terms in the Subscriber Agreement that ISRG provides. By installing and using Let’s Encrypt through Macido, you agree to be bound by the entire Subscriber Agreement (especially Section 3.1!), and understand that Macido reserves the right to take any and all action to remedy violations to the Subscriber Agreement or any other Macido terms of service. If you are already using Let’s Encrypt, your continued use of these services indicates that you have read and accepted these terms and the Let’s Encrypt Subscriber Agreement. If you do not agree with any of these terms, your only remedies are to contact Tech Support to have your certificates revoked, or close your Macido account. Please note that all Macido Terms of Service protections, such as our indemnification and liability waivers, still apply. The Let’s Encrypt Subscriber Agreement is updated by ISRG, and is provided through the following link: https://letsencrypt.org/repository/. For convenience, we have provided the updated agreement below. While Macido will update this page whenever there is a change to the agreement, it is your responsibility to check both this page and Let’s Encrypt’s repository for updates. Your continued use of Let’s Encrypt means that you agree to be bound by all of the contractual terms and any changes to both ISRG’s and Macido’s programs. We also reserve the right to modify or cancel this agreement at any time without notice.

Let’s Encrypt Subscriber Agreement Version 1.2 Effective: November 15, 2017

LET’S ENCRYPT SUBSCRIBER AGREEMENT

This Subscriber Agreement (“Agreement”) is a legally binding contract between you and, if applicable, the company, organization or other entity on behalf of which you are acting (collectively, “You” or “Your”) and Internet Security Research Group (“ISRG,” “We,” or “Our”) regarding Your and Our rights and duties relating to Your acquisition and use of SSL/TLS digital certificates issued by ISRG. If you are acting on behalf of a company, organization or other entity, You represent that you have the authority to bind such entity to this Agreement.

1. Definitions and Terms

“ACME Client Software” — A software application that uses the ACME protocol to request, accept, use or manage Let’s Encrypt Certificates. “Certificate” — A computer-based record or electronic message issued by an entity that associates a “Public Key” with an Internet domain name or other technical identifiers and is Digitally Signed by the issuing entity. “CRL” — A database or other list of Certificates that have been revoked prior to the expiration of their Validity Period. “Digital Signature/Digitally Sign” — The transformation of an electronic record by one person, using a Private Key and Public Key Cryptography, so that another person having the transformed record and the corresponding Public Key can accurately determine (i) whether the transformation was created using the Private Key that corresponds to the Public Key, and (ii) whether the record has been altered since the transformation was made. A Digital Signature need not incorporate a handwritten signature. “Key Pair” — Two mathematically-related keys (a Private Key and its corresponding Public Key), having the properties that (i) one key can be used to encrypt a message (i.e., create a Digital Signature) that can only be decrypted using the other key (i.e., verify the Digital Signature), and (ii) even while knowing or possessing one key (e.g., the Public Key), it is computationally difficult or infeasible to discover the other key (e.g., the Private Key). “Let’s Encrypt Certificate” — A Certificate issued by ISRG under the Let’s Encrypt name. “Private Key” — A key kept secret by its holder and which is used in Public Key Cryptography to create Digital Signatures and to decrypt messages or files that were encrypted with the corresponding Public Key. “Public Key” — In Public Key Cryptography, this is the publicly-disclosed key that is used by the recipient to (i) validate Digital Signatures created with the corresponding Private Key and (ii) encrypt messages or files to be decrypted with the corresponding Private Key. “Key Compromise” — A Private Key is said to be compromised if its value has been disclosed to an unauthorized person, an unauthorized person has had access to it, or there exists a practical technique by which an unauthorized person may discover its value. A Private Key is also considered compromised if methods have been developed that can easily calculate it based on the Public Key or if there is clear evidence that the specific method used to generate the Private Key was flawed. “Public Key Cryptography” — A type of cryptography that uses a Key Pair to securely encrypt and decrypt messages. One key encrypts a message, and the other key decrypts the message. One key is kept secret (the Private Key), and one is made available to others (the Public Key). These keys are, in essence, large mathematically-related numbers that form a unique pair. Either key may be used to encrypt a message, but only the other corresponding key may be used to decrypt the message. “Repository” — An online system maintained by ISRG for storing and retrieving Let’s Encrypt Certificates and other information relevant to Let’s Encrypt Certificates, including information relating validity or revocation. “Validity Period” — The intended term of validity of a Certificate, beginning with the date of issuance (“Valid From” or “Activation” date), and ending on the expiration date indicated in such Certificate (“Valid To” or “Expiry” date). “Your Certificate” — A Let’s Encrypt Certificate issued to You.

2. Effective Date, Term, and Survival

2.1 Effective Date of Agreement

This Agreement is effective once You request that ISRG issue a Let’s Encrypt Certificate to You.

2.2 Term

Each of Your Certificates will be valid for the Validity Period indicated in such Certificate unless revoked earlier. This Agreement will remain in force during the entire period during which any of Your Certificates are valid, continuously so as to include any renewal periods (including automatic renewals). Once You no longer possess any valid Let’s Encrypt Certificate, this Agreement will terminate.

2.3 Survival

Sections in this Agreement concerning privacy, indemnification, disclaimer of warranties, limitations of liability, governing law, choice of forum, limitations on claims against ISRG, and prohibitions on the use of fraudulently-obtained Certificates and expired Certificates shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.

3. Your Warranties and Responsibilities

3.1 Warranties

By requesting, accepting, or using a Let’s Encrypt Certificate:

• You warrant to ISRG and the public-at-large that You are the legitimate registrant of the Internet domain name that is, or is going to be, the subject of Your Certificate, or that You are the duly authorized agent of such registrant.
• You warrant to ISRG and the public-at-large that either (1) You did not obtain control of such domain name as the result of a seizure of such domain name, or (2) such domain name had no ongoing lawful uses at the time of such seizure.
• You warrant to ISRG and the public-at-large that all information in Your Certificate regarding You or Your domain name is accurate, current, reliable, complete, and not misleading.
• You warrant to ISRG and the public-at-large that all information You have provided to ISRG is, and You agree that all information you will provide to ISRG at any time will be, accurate, current, complete, reliable, and not misleading.
• You warrant to ISRG and the public-at-large that You rightfully hold the Private Key corresponding to the Public Key listed in Your Certificate.
• You warrant to ISRG and the public-at-large that You have taken, and You agree that at all times You will take, all appropriate, reasonable, and necessary steps to maintain control of, secure, properly protect and keep secret and confidential the Private Key corresponding to the Public Key in Your Certificate (and any associated activation data or device, e.g. password or token).

3.2 Changes in Certificate Information

If at any time You no longer control the Internet domain names associated with any of Your Certificates, or if any of the warranties in Section 3.1 above are no longer true with respect to any of Your Certificates in any other way, You will immediately request that ISRG revoke the affected Certificates. You may request replacement Let’s Encrypt Certificates before revoking the affected Certificates, provided that the warranties in Section 3.1 above are true with respect to the replacement Certificates.

3.3 Certificate Issuance

The contents of Your Certificates will be based on the information You or Your ACME Client Software sends to ISRG. If ISRG accepts your request for a Let’s Encrypt Certificate, ISRG will create Your Certificate and it will be provided to You through the ACME protocol. If ISRG is unable to confirm your identity or authorization, Your request may be denied. ISRG may, in its sole discretion, refuse to grant Your request for a Let’s Encrypt Certificate, including for any lawful reason stated or not stated in this Agreement.

3.4 Key Pair Generation

Your Key Pair (Public and Private Keys) will be generated by You or Your ACME Client Software on Your systems. You will submit the corresponding Public Key to ISRG and it will be incorporated into Your Certificate. ISRG will store Your Certificate in its Repository. ISRG will not have access to Your Private Key. Your Private and Public Keys will remain Your property. We will use technical methods and protocols to verify that You have control over the subject Internet domain name. This verification is done solely to assist ISRG in determining whether to issue a Let’s Encrypt Certificate and is not a service being performed for Your benefit or on Your behalf.

3.5 Inspection and Acceptance of Certificates

You warrant to ISRG and the public-at-large, and You agree, that You will immediately inspect the contents of Your Certificate (“Initial Inspection”), and to immediately request revocation if you become aware of any inaccuracies, errors, defects, or other problems (collectively, “Certificate Problems”) with Your Certificate. Your ACME Client Software may perform this task for You. You agree that You will have accepted Your Certificate when You first use Your Certificate or the corresponding Private Key after obtaining Your Certificate, or if You fail to request revocation of Your Certificate immediately following Initial Inspection.

3.6 Installation and Use of Your Certificate

You may reproduce and distribute Your Certificate on a nonexclusive and royalty-free basis, provided that it is reproduced and distributed in full and in compliance with this Agreement. You warrant to ISRG and the public-at-large, and You agree, that You will install Your Certificate only on servers that are accessible at the subjectAltName(s) listed in Your Certificate, and that you will use Your Certificate solely in compliance with all applicable laws and solely in accordance with this Agreement. Your Certificate will remain the property of ISRG, subject to Your right to use it as set forth in this Agreement. The purpose of Your Certificate is to authenticate and encrypt Internet communications. ISRG is not responsible for any legal or other consequences resulting from or associated with the use of Your Certificate. You agree that You will not use Your Certificate for any purpose requiring fail-safe performance, such as the operation of public utilities or power facilities, air traffic control or navigation systems, weapons systems, or any other systems, the failure of which would reasonably be expected to lead to bodily injury, death or property damage.

3.7. When to Revoke Your Certificate

You warrant to ISRG and the public-at-large, and You agree, that You will immediately request that Your Certificate be revoked if: (i) there is any actual or suspected misuse or Key Compromise of the Private Key associated with the Public Key included in Your Certificate, or (ii) any information in Your Certificate is, or becomes, misleading, incorrect or inaccurate. You may make a revocation request to ISRG using ACME Client Software. You should also notify anyone who may have relied upon Your use of Your Certificate that Your encrypted communications may have been subject to compromise.

3.8 When to Cease Using Your Certificate

You warrant to ISRG and the public-at-large, and You agree, that You will promptly cease using Your Certificate (i) if any information in Your Certificate is, or becomes, misleading, incorrect or inaccurate, or (ii) upon the revocation or expiration of Your Certificate.

3.9 When to Cease Using Your Private Key

You warrant to ISRG and the public-at-large, and You agree, that You will promptly cease all use of the Private Key corresponding to the Public Key included in Your Certificate upon revocation of Your Certificate for reasons of known or suspected Key Compromise.

3.10 Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless ISRG and its directors, officers, employees, agents, and affiliates from any and all liabilities, claims, demands, damages, losses, costs, and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, arising out of or related to: (i) any misrepresentation or omission of material fact by You to ISRG, irrespective of whether such misrepresentation or omission was intentional, (ii) your violation of this Agreement, (iii) any compromise or unauthorized use of Your Certificate or corresponding Private Key, or (iv) Your misuse of Your Certificate. If applicable law prohibits a party from providing indemnification for another party’s negligence or acts, such restriction, or any other restriction required by law for this indemnification provision to be enforceable, shall be deemed to be part of this indemnification provision.

4. ISRG’s Rights and Responsibilities

4.1 Privacy

Because others may rely on your use of Your Certificates to encrypt Internet communications, much of the information You send to ISRG will be published by ISRG and will become a matter of public record. ISRG’s collection, storage, use and disclosure of such information are governed by the Let’s Encrypt Privacy Policy at: https://letsencrypt.org/privacy/.

4.2 Certificate Repository

During the term of the Agreement, ISRG will operate and maintain a secure online Repository that is available to authorized relying parties that contains: (i) all past and current Let’s Encrypt Certificates (including, as applicable, Your Certificate) and (ii) a CRL or similar online database indicating whether Let’s Encrypt Certificates are valid, suspended, and/or revoked. ISRG will publish Your Certificate in the Repository and will indicate whether it is valid, suspended, revoked, and/or expired. ISRG will allow the public to access this information.

4.3 Suspension and Revocation

You acknowledge and accept that ISRG may immediately suspend Your Certificate if any party notifies ISRG that Your Certificate is invalid or has been compromised. ISRG will determine, in its sole discretion, whether to revoke Your Certificate. If You or Your agent requests that Your Certificate be revoked, ISRG will revoke Your Certificate and update the Repository as soon as practical. If a request for revocation is signed by your Private Key, then ISRG will automatically deem the request to be valid. You also acknowledge and accept that ISRG may, without advance notice, immediately revoke Your Certificate if ISRG determines, in its sole discretion, that: (i) Your Certificate was not properly issued or was obtained through misrepresentation, concealment, or fraud; (ii) Your Certificate has become, or appears to have become, unreliable; (iii) the security of the Private Key corresponding to Your Certificate has been or may be stolen, lost, or otherwise compromised, or subject to unauthorized use; (iv) any information in Your registration with ISRG or Your request for a Let’s Encrypt Certificate has changed or has become false or misleading; (v) You have violated any applicable law, agreement (including this Agreement), or other obligation; (vi) Your Certificate is being used, or has been used, to enable any criminal activity (such as phishing attacks, fraud or the distribution of malware); (vii) Your Certificate is being used, or has been used, to intercept the traffic of others; (viii) You request revocation; (ix) ISRG is legally required to revoke Your Certificate pursuant to a valid court order issued by a court of competent jurisdiction; (x) this Agreement has terminated; or (xi) there are other reasonable and lawful grounds for revocation. ISRG will provide notice of revocation via email to the email address of record.

4.4 IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN ISRG’S CERTIFICATE POLICY AND CERTIFICATE PRACTICE STATEMENT, LET’S ENCRYPT CERTIFICATES AND SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS-IS” AND ISRG DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY TYPE, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING AND WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ISRG SERVICE OR LET’S ENCRYPT CERTIFICATE. BECAUSE LET’S ENCRYPT CERTIFICATES ARE ISSUED FREE-OF-CHARGE AS A PUBLIC SERVICE, ISRG CANNOT ACCEPT ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY LOSS, HARM, CLAIM, OR ATTORNEY’S FEES IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH CERTIFICATES. ACCORDINGLY, YOU AGREE THAT ISRG WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES, ATTORNEY’S FEES, OR RECOVERY, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH DAMAGES ARE DIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR COMPENSATORY, EVEN IF ISRG HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS LIMITATION ON LIABILITY APPLIES IRRESPECTIVE OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY, I.E., WHETHER THE THEORY OF LIABILITY IS BASED UPON CONTRACT, WARRANTY, INDEMNIFICATION, CONTRIBUTION, TORT, EQUITY, STATUTE OR REGULATION, COMMON LAW, OR ANY OTHER SOURCE OF LAW, STANDARD OF CARE, CATEGORY OF CLAIM, NOTION OF FAULT OR RESPONSIBILITY, OR THEORY OF RECOVERY. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THIS DISCLAIMER IS INTENDED TO BE CONSTRUED TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LAW. BY WAY OF FURTHER EXPLANATION REGARDING THE SCOPE OF THE DISCLAIMER, AND WITHOUT WAIVING OR LIMITING THE FOREGOING IN ANY WAY, ISRG DOES NOT MAKE, AND ISRG EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS, ANY WARRANTY REGARDING ITS RIGHT TO USE ANY TECHNOLOGY, INVENTION, TECHNICAL DESIGN, PROCESS, OR BUSINESS METHOD USED IN EITHER ISSUING LET’S ENCRYPT CERTIFICATES OR PROVIDING ANY OF ISRG’S SERVICES. YOU AFFIRMATIVELY AND EXPRESSLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO HOLD ISRG RESPONSIBLE IN ANY WAY, OR SEEK INDEMNIFICATION AGAINST ISRG, FOR ANY INFRINGEMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS, INCLUDING PATENT, TRADEMARK, TRADE SECRET, OR COPYRIGHT.

5. Additional Terms

5.1 Governing Law

The parties agree that the laws of the State of California govern this Agreement, irrespective of California’s choice of law and conflicts of law principles.

5.2. Choice of Forum

Any claim, suit or proceeding arising out of this Agreement must be brought in a state or federal court located in San Jose, California.

5.3 Limitation on Claims against ISRG

Any claim, suit or proceeding against ISRG arising out of this Agreement must be commenced within one year of any alleged harm, loss, or wrongful act having occurred.

5.4 No Third-Party Beneficiary

This Agreement does not create rights in favor of any third parties. Furthermore, it is the express intent of the parties that this Agreement shall not be construed to confer any rights on any third party.

5.5 Entire Agreement

This Agreement, together with any documents incorporated by reference in any of the foregoing, constitutes the entire Agreement between You and ISRG concerning the subject matter hereof.

5.6 Amendment

ISRG may modify this Agreement from time to time. Each modified version of this Agreement will be posted to ISRG’s Let’s Encrypt website (letsencrypt.org) at least fourteen (14) days before it becomes effective. If such new version contains material changes and You have provided ISRG with an email address, ISRG will send an email to such address notifying You of such new version at least fourteen (14) days before it becomes effective. In addition, major changes will be flagged with a new Subscriber Agreement version number in the ACME protocol, so You may be able to configure Your ACME Client Software to notify You of such changes.

5.7 Severability

If any provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid, unenforceable, or contrary to law, then the Agreement will be deemed amended by modifying such provision to the extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable while preserving its intent or, if that is not possible, by striking the provision and enforcing the remainder of this Agreement.

5.8 Authorization of ISRG to Send Emails

By requesting, accepting or using a Let’s Encrypt Certificate, You authorize ISRG to send You emails relating to the renewal or revocation of Your Certificates, or to Your request, acceptance, or use of Let’s Encrypt Certificates. ISRG may send You such emails using any email address You provide to ISRG or any commonly-accepted contact email address for the domain names associated with Your Certificates, such as WHOIS domain contacts or common administrative email addresses.

If you have questions about our practices or any of your rights described below, you may contact us at privacypolicy@macido.com/de. This inbox is actively monitored and managed so that we can deliver an experience you can trust.

1. Who we are, our Services and our Website

1.1 Macido offers a variety of services to customers (“you”) which range from hosting and website services (including shared, VPS, and dedicated hosting, WordPress hosting, Remixer, email hosting (the “Hosting Services”)), cloud services and domain registration services (the “Domain Registration Services”) among others.

1.2 The services offered by Macido are collectively referred to as the Services in this Notice.

1.3 We also have a website (the “Website”) where website visitors, prospective customers and potential job applicants can find out more about us and our Services.

2. Hosting and Cloud Services

This section explains our privacy practices in relation to the data we collect when we provide Hosting and Cloud Services to you.

In this section, “client” refers to businesses to which we provide the Hosting and Cloud Services.

2.1 What information do we collect when we provide Hosting and Cloud Services

2.1.1 When clients use our Hosting and Cloud Services, they provide us with third party data. We only collect this data in accordance with our client’s instructions. This means that our clients are in control of the data they upload to our platforms.

2.1.2 We enter into agreements with our clients that set out our legal obligations in relation to that data, and explain that we may only use such data to provide the Services to our client (i.e. to provide Hosting Services, Cloud Services or the Domain Registration Services). In many legal jurisdictions, particularly those within the European Economic Area (“EEA”), Macido is considered to be a “data processor” in relation to such client data. Each of our clients would be considered to be a “data controller”. As a controller, each Macido client is responsible for complying with the requirements for controllers under the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) which requires notice, disclosure and specific legal bases for transferring data to Macido and using the Hosting and Cloud Services. As a processor, Macido has some – but not all – of those responsibilities.

2.1.3 If you would like more information about the data collected by a particular Macido client and, in turn, transferred to Macido, please refer to that client’s privacy notice which would typically be located on their website.

2.1.4 There are instances in which we act as a data controller. The rest of this Privacy Policy explains our data collection practices in those circumstances.

2.2 Information that you provide

2.2.1 The personal information we collect from you when we provide you with Services will depend on the type of service or support you require.

2.2.2 Some personal information is collected directly from you when you:

• (a) create an account or purchase any of our Services (for example, billing information, contact information, credit card number and in certain circumstances, government identification);
• (b) request assistance from our technical support team (for example, your phone number or email address);
• (c) log in to your account, such as your log-in credentials (for example, your username and password);
• (d) complete contact forms or request newsletters or other information from us (for example, your email address); or
• (e) participate in surveys or contests or participate in activities we promote which might require information from you.

2.2.3 We will also collect and process other data that might be less obvious to you. For example, account-related information is collected in association with your use of the Services (like the types of services you have used, your payment history, the amount of your payments, your domain name, information about when products renew or expire, customer service requests, information requests, etc.).

2.2.4 Some of this data may be personal data. We may use this information to contact you from time to time about our products, promotions and other services that relate to your account. You can manage and choose the information you want to receive. Please see Section 11 for more information.

2.2.5 Most of the personal information that we collect is necessary to keep all of our Services functional and accessible by you. If we’re asking for personal information beyond this scope, we’ll make sure to clearly let you know why we need it (and what the effects of not providing it may be).

We retain personal information we collect from you where we have an ongoing legitimate business need to do so (for example, to comply with applicable legal, tax or accounting requirements, to enforce our agreements or comply with our legal obligations). When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize it or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing, until deletion is possible.

Unlimited Policy

Last Updated: September 6th, 2021

What do you mean “Unlimited”?

What we mean is, you don’t have to worry about disk storage or network transfer when your site gets popular. You DO still have to worry about plenty of other things though… if your site isn’t well optimized and is causing issues for others on your shared server (either because it’s pounding the CPU, hogging RAM, or doing tons of disk I/O), you may be asked to sign up for upgrade your service. Trust us, every host out there has exactly the same limitations… we’re just trying to be up front about them!

What about databases?

You’re certainly allowed an unlimited number of MySQL databases, but in the interest of server stability, MySQL databases on any shared hosting platform are limited to 3GB in size per database. Databases on a MySQL VPS platform are unlimited in size, but we request that you try to keep them optimized.

…and email?

In order to keep the mail system operating smoothly, there are some restrictions on email storage. The number of email addresses that can be created on an account is dependent on your chosen email or hosting plan. All email addresses have a 25GB storage limit. All forward-only mail accounts are limited to 10 forward addresses.

What’s not allowed in “Unlimited”?

Basically, sites whose essential purpose is to use disk or bandwidth. When making a website, you should be thinking about “How can I make an interesting site for my visitors while minimizing my server storage, bandwidth, file system, memory, and cpu impact as much as possible?” The result will be a better experience for your visitors, your web host, and yourself!

• Copyrighted content to which you do not hold usage or distribution rights.
• File upload / sharing / archive / backup / mirroring / distribution sites.
• A site created primarily to drive traffic to another site.
• Making your account resources available (whether for free or pay) to the general public.

Macido reserves the right to delete data stored on our servers that violates any of the terms in the Unlimited Policy, and, generally, in our Terms of Service. Macido has sole discretion to determine what does, and does not violate either policy.

Hey, that doesn’t sound very “Unlimited” to me!

Actually, for you, my dear Legitimate Website Owner, it is unlimited. This whole page is just to announce to the <.1% of people who want to try and run free porn affiliate sites or anime video trading forums or host pirated rips of The Dark Knight on Macido that we’re not having any. But our pledge to you is to do our best to always keep your website, with the content you created, UP… no matter how many times you get Slashdotted or Reddited.

WP Migrations Terms of Service

Last Updated:
April 23, 2020

Turnaround Time for Professional WordPress Migration Service

Our realistic turnaround time guarantee for a fully completed and tested Professional WordPress Migration to your account is 48 hours from the date and time we send you a confirmatory e-mail stating that the migration process has started. We can only begin the process after (1) you provide us with all of the login information requested in the “Request For Credentials” (RFC) e-mail, and (2) we verify that we have access to the WordPress installation we are migrating.

The quoted turnaround time is dependent on your active participation and timely replies to our emails. We ask that you reply to any of our e-mails within 12 hours to fully take advantage of our turnaround time guarantee we are providing. If we don’t receive a reply from you within 12 hours, then the migration process is “paused” and the quoted turnaround time is no longer applicable (even though we’ll still do our best to complete the process as soon as possible!)

Customer Data and Disk Usage

The storage on Macido web servers is designed specifically for hosting sites — it is not efficient as a backup or storage solution. Please ensure that the data we migrate meets these requirements, and remove all backup files before providing us with your credentials. We filter some backup files if we can identify them, but we may not exclude all of them (it is usually enough to just move the files one or more levels up in the directory structure on your current host, allowing us to identify and exclude them).

Please note that Macido’s Acceptable Use Policy and Unlimited Policy will apply to any and all migrations to Macido services.

Mobile Site

We can only guarantee the migration of the desktop version of your site. The good news is that the mobile version will usually keep running. If the mobile site isn’t working, please let us know and we’ll offer troubleshooting tips to help address the problem.

More Than WordPress?

While this service only covers WordPress migrations, we can migrate other types of files over to Macido, too. If you have special plans in mind that may include other applications, feel free to reach out to Tech Support (email/livechat/callbacks/twitter) and we’ll probably be able to help!

Technical Requirements

1. We strongly prefer that your current WordPress site stays live until the migration process is complete on our end. This ensures that your old site can be accurately compared to the new one before we finish the process! If we’re unable to compare the two, we may not be able to notice and/or address errors that already exist.
2. If your WordPress version is older than WP 3.7, it must be upgraded to at least that version at your old host so critical security issues are handled first.
3. If you have HTTPS enabled on your site, Macido can only guarantee getting the HTTP option running. Once you’re set up, we can then guide you through enabling HTTPS for your domain.
4. If you suspect that your site is hacked, please ensure that any and all issues are cleared up (and cleaned up!) through your current host. If we begin your migration process and find any hacked files, we may stop the process and notify you of the interruptions. This will also affect your turnaround time.
5. We can’t guarantee a 100%, fully functional migration if you choose to manually provide data or files instead of allowing us to utilize a live WordPress site.

Email

The migration service only covers the contents of the site. Any emails you want to keep must be handled separately by you. DO NOT change your email DNS to route emails to Macido servers (if that is even your preference) until the migration is complete and approved in writing. Reach out to Tech Support for more help.

Refund Policy

The one-time charge for WordPress migrations is refundable in certain situations. You’re eligible for a refund if our team, due to our own internal delays, takes longer than the quoted time period to complete the migration. We’ll also refund the charge if you cancel before we’ve sent out the confirmatory email indicating the start of the migration process.

Be warned, though! The following situations will cause you to forfeit your right to a refund:

1. Failing to respond to our information requests and emails for more than 12 hours if we’ve already started the migration process
2. Interference with the migration process, or taking over the migration process yourself
3. Asking us to cancel the migration process after we’ve sent you the confirmatory email that signals the start of the migration process
4. A hacked site requiring us to pause and clean up before proceeding

No Guarantee

While we’ll strive to do our best during the migration, please note that a perfect result is not guaranteed. There may be small issues with the content or structure of your WordPress site, and we aren’t able to address every single inconsistency resulting from the move. This is a process that’s manually performed by our team, and we’ll do our very best to get things working for you!

Applicable Terms

Please note that all of Macido’s terms of service apply to you and your account after a migration.

Abandonment

If we don’t hear back from you 7 days after an information request, we’ll consider the migration as “abandoned” and will cancel it without processing a refund. We may archive your files for up to 30 days (starting from the original, confirmatory email) in order to facilitate future reinstatement of the migration process, but this isn’t guaranteed!

Cancellation

If you decide to cancel the migration process for whatever reason, please let us know so that the Tech Support team can cancel the process and avoid any interference with your plans. Keep in mind that a refund is not available if we’ve already started the process (see Refund Policy above).

Notice

We reserve the right to modify or cancel these terms at any time. Please make sure to check this page often! Your continued use of this service after modifications have been made constitutes an acceptance of the updated terms.
