Once the Service has been provisioned, the relevant account credentials, access details, or activation information will be sent to the registered email address associated with your account.

We reserve the right to manually review, delay, suspend, or reject any order where reasonably necessary for fraud prevention, compliance, technical feasibility, service availability, or policy enforcement.

8. Cancellation, Termination, and Refunds

This section distinguishes between cancellation by you and suspension or termination by us.

8.1 Cancellation by You

You may cancel a recurring Service at any time through your account portal or by contacting support, subject to any product-specific procedures.

Cancellation stops future renewals. Unless otherwise expressly stated, cancellation does not entitle you to a refund for the unused portion of the current billing period.

You are responsible for backing up your data before canceling or deleting any Service. Once a VPS instance or related Service is terminated or deleted, its data may be permanently erased and may not be recoverable.

8.3 Refund Policy

Unless otherwise required by applicable law or expressly stated in writing:

If we choose, at our sole discretion, to issue a refund or service credit in an exceptional case, such action does not create an obligation to do so in future cases.

8.4 Fraudulent or Abusive Refund Requests

We reserve the right to deny refunds where we detect fraud, abuse, chargeback risk, repeated refund requests, policy circumvention, or violations of these Terms.


9. Acceptable Use Policy

The Services must be used lawfully, responsibly, and without causing harm to us, our infrastructure, or third parties.

You may not use, attempt to use, or permit others to use the Services for any unlawful, prohibited, abusive, or harmful purpose.

Prohibited activities include, without limitation:

You are solely responsible for ensuring that your use of the Services, and the data and content you store, transmit, or process, comply with all applicable laws and regulations.

10. Customer Data and Backups

You retain responsibility for your applications, workloads, configurations, and data stored in or transmitted through the Services.

You acquire no ownership rights in any such resources.


12. Maintenance, Availability, and Support

We aim to provide reliable Services, but availability is not guaranteed unless expressly set out in a separate service level agreement ("SLA").

We may perform maintenance, upgrades, emergency interventions, abuse mitigation, or infrastructure changes that affect availability, performance, or configuration.

Any support commitments, response times, or service credits apply only if expressly stated in a separate SLA or support policy.

We may suspend, restrict, or terminate any account or Service immediately, with or without prior notice where reasonably necessary, including where:

Where appropriate, we may give you an opportunity to remedy the issue. In serious cases, we may act immediately.

These Terms do not transfer any intellectual property rights to you except for the limited right to use the Services in accordance with these Terms.

We may suspend or terminate Services where we believe sanctions, export control, or compliance risks exist.

Our collection and processing of personal data are governed by our Privacy Policy, as updated from time to time.

You are responsible for ensuring that you have a lawful basis to collect, use, host, transfer, and process any personal data or regulated data uploaded to or processed through the Services.

Where required, you are responsible for entering into any necessary data processing agreements with your own customers or end users.


22. Changes to the Terms

We may amend these Terms from time to time for legal, operational, security, technical, or commercial reasons.

Updated Terms become effective when published, unless a later effective date is stated.

Your continued use of the Services after the effective date of updated Terms constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Hong Kong, without regard to conflict of law principles.

Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or in connection with these Terms or the Services shall first be attempted to be resolved through good-faith negotiations by written notice to developer@platomaster.com.
