A Domain will always be registered in or transferred into your name, not SimpleSonic’s. You should manage your Domain’s WHOIS data through your SimpleSonic client area at https://simplesonic.com/members/clientarea.php. It is your responsibility to ensure that all data is accurate. Your Domain may be taken offline if you fail to keep your contact data up to date and it cannot be verified. To provide the best service we may from time to time change the registrar that a Domain is held with, at our discretion and without notice. Such a change does not impact your domain name usage.
4.2 - Designated Agent
For all applicable gTLDs you agree that we will act as a Designated Agent, in accordance with ICANN’s Transfer Policy, for you whenever a request is made to update the registrant contact details associated with a Domain. In that respect, you authorise us to approve a change of registrant of any change to the registrant’s details on behalf of you.

Our service is limited to the forwarding of your order to the registry. It is your sole responsibility to ensure that the domain has been registered, renewed and/or transferred as appropriate. We accept no liability for any failure to register or transfer the Domain.4.4 - ICANN Terms
Domain registration is subject to third party terms and conditions including those from the relevant registry for the Domain extension. By submitting your order to us you are confirming that you will at all times and in all respects comply with ICANN’s and any relevant registry’s terms and conditions for domain registration and use. You will indemnify us in respect of any failure by you to comply with the terms of this Agreement or any failure to comply with ICANN or the registry's terms and conditions.
4.5 - Automatic Renewal
We will endeavour to automatically renew a Domain on your behalf when it is due for renewal, save where you have given notice in accordance with clause 4.1, below or where you have set the Domain to either cancel or manual renewal in your control panel. We will not renew a Domain where no up to date payment method has been provided or where you fail to make payment as required.
4.6 - Renewal
Renewals will ordinarily be renewed for the same duration as the initial registration period, unless you instruct in writing of any required amendment or modify the renewal settings in your client area. The renewal will be charged at the prevailing rate at the time of renewal. We shall take payment for Domain renewals up to 7 days prior to the Domain renewal date in order to ensure that the Domain is renewed on time.
4.7 - Ownership WHOIS
We shall determine the ownership of a registered Domain by reference to the details held on the Whois database. If the Whois database details are not determinative then we shall be entitled to request whatever supporting evidence we may require to ascertain ownership. It is your obligation to resolve any dispute over ownership with a third party. We are under no obligation to carry out a transfer request if we are not satisfied that the correct consents and permissions have been obtained.
4.8 - Transfer Responsibility
You are solely responsible for completing any steps required to transfer the domain, including but not limited to: changing the Nominet IPS tag of the domain, unlocking the domain name, providing the Authorisation code, and approving a transfer request. You must inform us if you wish to cancel a transfer and request a refund in accordance with our refund policy.
4.9 - Transfer Costs
You acknowledge that one year may be added and charged to some domain extensions when transferred. Some domains have maximum registration periods and you acknowledge this may prevent a transfer if the renewal would push the registration over the registry term limit. We will not initiate transfer of a Domain until the order has been placed and fully paid.
4.10 - Expiration
In the event that a domain name is not renewed by its expiry date it shall cease to operate and shall be deemed to be expired. A registered Domain shall expire if we are unable to take payment via the method provided, or where you have set the Domain to expire or fail to manually renew the Domain before the renewal date.
4.11 - Grace Period
Following the expiry date a domain may enter a grace and/or redemption period. In this situation you acknowledge that we may at our discretion, within three calendar days after the date of expiration of a Domain renew the Domain; or, park the Domain on different name servers from those set by you. Domains from registries which do not allow for a grace and/or redemption period may be unrecoverable by us following the expiry date, in which case our agreement will terminate immediately and without liability to us. Further, we are under no duty to attempt to recover such Domain.
4.12 - Redemption
Provided that the relevant registry for the Domain allows a grace period, you acknowledge that you have the length of their grace period (for example, 30 days) following the expiry of the Domain (‘the Grace Period’) to contact us to retrieve and renew the Domain provided that you pay for said renewal in full and in cleared funds. On receipt of the renewal fee by us within the Grace Period, you will retain ownership of the Domain and as soon as reasonably practicable we shall restore the Domain to your control panel.
4.13 - Expired Domain Actions
You acknowledge that following the end of the Grace Period we may at our sole discretion carry out the following actions:
Auction the Domain
Change the contact details
Transfer the Domain
If we do not receive the renewal fee within the Grace Period then our Agreement for that Domain will terminate immediately and without liability to us. Provided that the relevant registry of the Domain allows for a redemption period, if we receive a request from you to renew the Domain after the end of the Grace Period (‘the Redemption Period’), you agree to pay the applicable redemption fee(s) plus the renewal fee(s) for the Domain(s). You acknowledge and agree that we are not obliged to take any action to renew or recover a Domain in the Redemption Period and will only make such attempts once the you have paid both the redemption and renewal fees. We make no guarantee that attempted renewals will be successful.
4.14 - Registration Agreement
You agree to the terms of the applicable domain name registration agreement (as amended from time to time): nominet.uk – for .uk domains and icann.org for .com, .net, .org, .info. biz domains.
5.1 - Intended Use
Unless explicitly stated to the contrary our services are intended to be used for the purposes of hosting websites and email. Batch processing, video encoding/transcoding, webcrawling/spidering, archiving and online backup systems and any system for purposes other than hosting a website are not permitted on our reseller hosting servers. We reserve the right to take proactive action to maintain the stability of our systems for all clients.
5.2 - ‘Unmetered’ and ‘Unlimited’ Allowances
Any ‘Unmetered’ and ‘Unlimited’ allowances are subject to fair use and any customer using an amount of monthly transfer, email accounts, addon domains, databases or system resources deemed excessive in comparison to the average usage by other customers on our platform may, at our discretion, be forced to improve website efficiency.
5.3 - Inadequate for Requirements
If we feel that the service selected or purchased by you does not meet your service needs we will inform you of this and advise you of the appropriate service for your needs. We are under no obligation to continue to provide hosting services that are inadequate or unsuitable for your needs. Refusal to cooperate with an account move request may result in account suspension and/or termination.
5.4 - Free Migrations
We offer a free migration service to help move your account(s) from your previous provider to SimpleSonic. This is a best-effort service. You acknowledge that you are the party most familiar with your website and we cannot know the intricacies of all the websites we host. We will take reasonable care to move your site files and data but it is your responsibility to give us suitable access to retrieve the data and to check that the site has been migrated successfully. We aim to migrate websites within 72 hours, though we do not guarantee any particular time frame for the migration. In some cases we may be able to migrate emails, dns records and domain names also, but we do not warrant that we can move them successfully, or without interruption.
5.5 - Hosting Environment Changes
We reserve the right to change the hosting environment your website runs in. These changes will be made on a “like for like” basis and will not affect your use of the hosting environment. The only circumstances where material changes will be made to your website hosting environment will be to provide you with an ‘upgrade’. You will be informed in writing of any changes that we make to the hosting environment.
5.6 - Server Location
We offer a choice of server locations and reserve the right to make substitutions when necessary. It may be that your desired location is not available, or your existing location is changed or shutdown. We may also at our discretion move your account to an equivalent location or provider on an as-needed basis.
5.7 - Data Transfer Usage
Data Transfer (also referred to as bandwidth) with all SimpleSonic services is considered unmetered and fair use and common sense applies. No client shall be permitted to use what is considered to be excessive transfer usage in our shared or reseller hosting environments.
5.8 - DDoS Attacks
Since DDoS attack methods change and new methods of attacks occur without notice, we make no guarantees to be able to defend each and every attack on website from a denial of service attack we receive. If you think you may be a DDoS target we recommend purchasing a paid DDoS mitigation service (not a free plan) from a 3rd party such as Cloudflare.
5.9 - Server Uptime
We endeavour to provide a 99.9% service uptime, excluding planned or emergency server maintenance or conditions beyond our reasonable control. All customers will be notified of planned maintenance as far as possible in advance through our status page. In the event of a problem with your server, we shall ensure that a qualified engineer will be dealing with the problem within 30 minutes of being notified. In the rare event that your problem cannot be resolved within 30 minutes you will be notified. When notifying you we will provide you with the details of the problem along with an estimation of when the issue will be resolved. Notification may be via one of your contact methods or via our public status page (https://www.simplesonic.com/members/serverstatus.php or https://status.simplesonic.com).
5.10 - Uptime Guarantee
While we constantly strive to provide 100% uptime, there are times where certain hardware and other failures can cause unavoidable outages and downtime. During such times, we will issue those affected a 25% downtime account credit upon request. Where 25% represents 25% of the monthly amount of the hosting plan of the affected client.
5.11 - Daily Backups
We take full account backups of your websites and store them offsite, usually in the same geographic region (but not necessarily the same country) as your live server for the best performance. If you have data residency requirements please contact us to arrange a bespoke solution. We may exclude files we consider non-fundamental to the operation of your website, e.g. error logs, cpanel backups, cache files. Backups are a best effort service and we do not warrant that they are complete or regular. It is your responsibility to keep backups of your own website and/or accounts.
5.12 - Service Disruptions
We are not responsible for disruption to the services outside our control. We endeavour to choose providers that offer an extremely high level of performance and uptime but if our supply of the services is disrupted by an event outside our control then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimize the effect of the disruption. This may be via our status page at https://status.simplesonic.com. We will not be liable for disruption caused by the event. We will not be responsible for network or hardware issues upstream of us. E.g. if our data center providers have an issue outside of normal operating issues, we will not be responsible for their problems or include this within our 100% uptime calculation.
5.13 - Free WHMCS
We offer a free WHMCS Starter license to use with your SimpleSonic account. Unused/inactive licenses not assigned to a valid domain will be cancelled at our discretion. If the account is cancelled/closed prior to the initial renewal date, we reserve the right to invoice you for the WHMCS license usage. As a license reseller for WHMCS, any pricing increases from WHMCS are outside our control. Therefore our free WHMCS license offering may be changed or discontinued at our discretion. The WHMCS licenses we provide must be used on our servers/network. Using the WHMCS licenses we provide on remote servers/networks is a violation of our licensing agreement and may result in immediate cancellation of your WHMCS license.
