2. Website Metrics. As part of the Service, and for continued improvement, you are opted into Real User Metrics (RUM) and Google Core Web Vitals (CWV). This allows us to identify internal bottlenecks and optimization opportunities by inserting a small snippet of JavaScript code into customer websites. The snippet of JavaScript code allows us to measure and track the performance of your website and collects information such as connection time and page load time. We don't collect any user information with RUM. The data we collect allows us to improve our systems, optimize DNS resolution, improve network routing and server configurations.
3. Website/Server Content. Your website may not include any of the following content: (1) image hosting scripts that allow an anonymous user to upload an image for display on another website (similar to Photobucket or Tinypic); (2) banner ad services for display on other websites or devices (commercial banner ad rotation); (3) file dump/mirror scripts that allow an anonymous user to upload a file for other to download (similar to rapidshare); (4) commercial audio streaming (more than one or two streams); (5) push button mail scripts that allow the user to specify recipient email addresses; (6) anonymous or bulk SMS gateways; (7) backups of content from another computer or website; (8) Bittorrent trackers; or (9) any script that causes a degradation in the performance of our server or network environment.
4. Unlimited Disk Space/Bandwidth/Website Plans. Web Hosting and WordPress Hosting plans are designed to host most personal, small business and organization websites, and thus we offer unlimited bandwidth and some plans offer unlimited disk space and websites. This means that we do not set a limit on the amount of bandwidth, websites or disk space you may use in the operation of your website, provided it complies with this Service Agreement. In the event the bandwidth, number of websites or disk space usage of your website presents a risk to the stability, performance or uptime of our servers, data storage, networking or other infrastructure, you may be required to upgrade to a VPS or Dedicated Server, or we may take action to restrict the resources your website is utilizing.
5. Website Accelerator Service. Our Website Accelerator service (“Website Accelerator”) provides a content delivery network (CDN) designed to optimize your website performance through caching and secure distribution of static website content on a network of nationally dispersed servers. You acknowledge and agree that your website content will be stored throughout the United States. You acknowledge and agree that Website Accelerator may be discontinued or suspended at any time, and your participation is subject to eligibility, as detailed below.
   
   In order to be eligible for Website Accelerator, you acknowledge and agree that you meet and will keep in compliance with the following criteria: (1) your website must be hosted in Phoenix, AZ; (2) your domain name and hosting must be in the same account; (3) you must have DNS with us; (4) you must not use DNSSEC; (5) you may not have or add SSL certificates; if you add an SSL with CDN activated, the SSL certificate will not function; (6) you must have an Ultimate web hosting plan; and (7) you may not change operating systems.

2. IP Addresses. You acknowledge and agree you are required to begin using at least ninety percent (90%) of your purchased IP addresses within thirty (30) days of assignment of such IP addresses to you. In the event you do not begin using at least ninety percent (90%) of your assigned IP addresses within thirty (30) days of assignment, you acknowledge and agree that we shall have the right to reclaim any unused IP addresses.
3. FTP Back-Up. We offer an FTP Backup option for an extra fee. You acknowledge and agree that purchasing FTP Backup may require additional down time to install and maintain. You further acknowledge and agree that in utilizing the FTP Backup option, you shall be subject to a maximum disk space and bandwidth usage according to the plan you purchase. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Service Agreement, we shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide FTP Backup services on a twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven (7) days per week basis throughout the term of this Service Agreement. You acknowledge and agree that from time-to-time the FTP Backup services may be inaccessible or inoperable for any reason, including, without limitation: (1) equipment malfunctions; (2) periodic maintenance procedures or repairs that we may undertake from time to time; or (3) causes beyond our control or that are not reasonably foreseeable including, but not limited to, interruption or failure of telecommunication or digital transmission links, hostile network attacks, network congestion or other failures.

Third Party Software, third party hardware and internally developed customer software will be supported by us. If you wish to cancel RAID, you will be required to cancel your server and purchase a new one.
   
   
   • Plesk. In the event you add Plesk to your server, you agree to be bound by the Plesk EULA, which is hereby incorporated by reference.
   • cPanel. In the event you add cPanel to your server, you agree to be bound by the cPanel EULA, which is hereby incorporated by reference.
   • cPanel Fair Usage Policy: This policy is a guide to understand the intended uses of our Services, and to prevent exploitation and abuse of the unlimited features offered in our plans. VPS and dedicated hosting with cPanel offers unlimited number of accounts. Although we do not wish to set a specific limit, as a guideline, a threshold of 100 accounts will be considered normal, reasonable use. We evaluate your usage in comparison to typical levels of usage engaged in by other users. In the event that you exceed this threshold, GoDaddy may in its sole and absolute discretion, assess additional usage charges for accounts in excess of the threshold or restrict additional accounts from being created. Where possible, GoDaddy will provide a notice of your usage in excess of the normal use.

If you purchased Managed SSL and are using an SSL certificate on a website hosted by us, we will generate and securely store a corresponding private key. For security reasons, at no time will we release your private key, even per your request. If you wish to export your SSL certificate for use on a non-GoDaddy server, request a re-key of the SSL certificate - your current SSL certificate will become invalid and we will issue a new certificate for use on your non-GoDaddy server.

We will automatically validate, issue and install the new certificate every two years for subscribing customers using our hosting products. Customers using 3^rd party hosting products will be required to reinstall the new certificate after we automatically validate and issue a new certificate. We will alert customers when to take action via the product dashboard and email.

You are permitted to assign a representative the authority to (1) sign and submit, or approve a certificate request on your behalf, (2) sign and submit a Subscriber Agreement on your behalf and/or (3) to acknowledge the Terms of Use on your behalf, provided you acknowledge and agree that you are and will remain subject to and bound by all terms and conditions of this Agreement.

1. WordPress (“WP”) Premium Support. If you elect to use our WP Premium Support Services (either as a subscription or as a one-time Service), we reserve the right to charge any or all of the fees for such Services prior to the commencement of any work being performed. All services, both subscription and one time, will be listed as a "Best Effort Service." Even after taking all reasonable steps, we may not be able to resolve certain issues. We are not responsible for and will not provide assistance with any issue(s) that arise beyond fourteen days of any use of WP Premium Support Services. We may install a plugin on your hosted WordPress site for the purpose of facilitating your WP Premium Support Services. Its purpose is to facilitate the requested change and maintenance of your WordPress files. The plugin allows us to access, automate updates to core files, other plugins, themes, and other files related to the maintenance of your site. You acknowledge and agree that you shall not use WP Premium Support Services in a manner that, as determined by us in our sole and absolute discretion:
   • displays or advertises pornographic, X-rated, sexually explicit, or otherwise tasteless materials, images, products or services (including, but not limited to: massage, dating, escort or prostitution services); or
   • uses pornographic, X-rated, sexually explicit keywords or images in video names, descriptions or listings.
   Further, you are responsible for ensuring that any product posted for sale on your website is in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations where your items can be purchased. We reserve the right and sole discretion to determine whether the sale of any particular item is illegal or otherwise prohibited and cancel your Services.
2. Managed and Fully Managed Hosting Support Plans. If you purchase a Managed or Fully Managed Hosting Support Plan (“Managed Hosting Plan”) with VPS, we may install a limited number of applications (“Supported Applications”) on your server at your request. A full list of Supported Applications is available from our support team upon request. If you request the installation of a Supported Application, we will install and configure the Supported Application on our server as long as the server has available resources (e.g., storage, RAM, processing power) to support that particular application.
   
   We will then provide the primary (administrator) username and password to you, at which point you will take over the managed and additional configuration of that particular application. We will not be responsible for content, customization, or any other activities associated with the Supported Application, including any repair of the Supported Application should it stop working.
   
   We shall limit technical support of an inoperable Supported Application to restoring said Supported Application to its original state (fresh installation, with no data or customization). The backups offered with these support plans are snapshots taken on a 10-day cycle. Restores are available upon request and may require an additional fee.
3. Hosting Premium Support/Expert Services. If we determine that any support request falls outside the scope of your plan, you can request custom support services (“Expert Services”) for a fee, or on a per service basis, which we will quote to you before providing the custom support service. If you elect to use our Expert Services, we reserve the right to charge any or all of the fees for such Services prior to the commencement of any work being performed. Expert Services fees are non-refundable. You must, within fourteen days of any Expert Services, notify us if there are any issues with the Expert Services. We are not responsible for and will not provide assistance with any issue(s) that arise beyond fourteen days of any Expert Services.
4. Hosting Migrations. If you have your domain name registered with us and the web hosting associated with the domain is provided by a third-party, we may, at your request and in our sole discretion, attempt to assist you to move the web hosting for the domain name to us (“Hosting Migration”). Hosting Migrations are provided as a courtesy service, and we do not make any guarantee regarding the availability, possibility, or time required to complete a Hosting Migration. Each hosting company is configured differently, and some hosting platforms save data in an incompatible or proprietary format, which may make us unable to assist you in the transfer of data from a third-party host.
   
   You are solely responsible for reviewing the functionality and accuracy of migrated content in its new location following a Hosting Migration. If you are satisfied with the data migration, you will need to update the DNS record for the domain name in order to publish the website in its new location. We will not perform website backups or archives in connection with a Hosting Migration, and we recommend that you back up your third-party hosted website before migration to ensure that no data is lost. You agree not to make any changes or revisions to your website during the migration process.
   
   You agree that we are not liable for any delay in website resolution or loss of data related to your Hosting Migration. Hosting Migrations are not available for websites with over 10GB of data or more than 100,000 files.
   
   We may install a plugin on your external WordPress site for the purpose of facilitating your WordPress migration into our own Managed WordPress hosting environment. This plugin will not change anything on your source site. Its purpose is to facilitate the Hosting Migration of your WordPress files. You are welcome to disable the plugin on your source site after the Hosting Migration has been completed.

We offer a Service uptime guarantee of 99.9% (“Service Uptime Guarantee”) of available time per month. If we fail to maintain this Service Uptime Guarantee in a particular month (as solely determined by us), you may contact us and request a credit of 5% of your monthly hosting fee for that month. The credit may be used only for the purchase of further products and services from us, and is exclusive of any applicable taxes. The Service Uptime Guarantee does not apply to service interruptions caused by: (1) periodic scheduled maintenance or repairs we may undertake from time to time; (2) interruptions caused by you from custom scripting, coding or the installation of third-party applications; (3) outages that do not affect the appearance of your website but merely affect access to your website such as FTP and email; (4) causes beyond our control or that are not reasonably foreseeable; and (5) outages related to the reliability of certain programming environments.
