The resources allocated in each package of ArvanCloud products are designed to meet the needs of the general users with regular and usual consumption. Therefore, if you exceed the fair usage, your service will be limited. The amount in the Fair Usage Policy is stated for monthly usage per account and will be applied to all free and paid packages of Arvancloud products.
Several variables are used in calculations of the fair usage limits of each product. Yet, if while using ArvanCloud resources, you cause disturbance in stability, performance, and the quality of our services for other users, our experts can limit your service according to the Fair Usage Policy. Whether or not you are exceeding the limits of Fair Usage is usually decided by ArvanCloud experts and it is based on various factors.

6.4. At all times, ArvanCloud has the right to request (partial) payment in advance for the delivery of Products and/or Services, for instance through an authorisation of direct debit given to ArvanCloud. ArvanCloud also has the right to suspend delivery until the advance payment has been received. Furthermore, ArvanCloud has the right to request security of payment in the form preferred and indicated by ArvanCloud (e.g. banker’s guarantee).

Any contestation from the Customer regarding a ArvanCloud invoice or an amount recovered by ArvanCloud through direct debit should be notified in writing to ArvanCloud within fourteen (14) days following the invoice date or the date on which the direct debit was performed; past this deadline, the invoiced or debited sum shall be considered approved by the Customer.
10.2. Should the Customer consider that a Product or Service delivered by ArvanCloud does not meet the criteria agreed on between both parties, then the Customer should immediately notify ArvanCloud within fourteen (14) days following delivery or following the moment starting from which the Customer could have reasonably noticed the shortcoming indicated by it.
11.1. All rights on intellectual property pertaining to the Products and/or Services as well as to designs, programs, documentation and any other material developed and/or used for the preparation or implementation of the agreement between ArvanCloud and the Customer – or the rights deriving thereof – are solely vested in ArvanCloud or its suppliers. The delivery of Products and/or Services doesn’t entail any transfer of rights of intellectual property.

The Customer will indemnify ArvanCloud from all possible claims from third parties in this frame.
12.3. In the event that part of the information supplied by the Customer to ArvanCloud could be considered personal information, the Customer guarantees that the information compiled with the privacy laws in vigour at the time the information was supplied and that its use and treatment by ArvanCloud is authorized. The Customer indemnifies ArvanCloud from all possible claims from third parties in this frame.

Parties will also impose this restriction on their employees and on third parties employed for the implementation of the agreement between both parties.
13.2. Information will by all means be considered confidential if any one of the parties indicates it as such.
14.1. The legal liability of ArvanCloud for imputable faults in the frame of the implementation of the agreement is restricted to the compensation of direct damage suffered by the Customer up to a maximum amount equalling the compensation established in the agreement in question. If the agreement has a term exceeding one year, the established compensation will equal the sum total of compensations established for the ongoing year at the time the fault occurs. In no case will the total compensation for direct damage exceed € 250,- and – if the damage is of physical or material nature – € 250,- per event, whereby a series of events will be considered one event.
14.2. With direct damage is exclusively meant: costs the Customer had to reasonably incur in order to repair or discontinue the shortcomings of ArvanCloud so that ArvanCloud’s performance would again be in accordance with the agreement, as well as reasonable costs incurred to prevent or restrict such damage and reasonable costs incurred to establish the cause and the importance of the damage. If ArvanCloud and the Customer have agreed on a binding term of delivery, the costs will be taken into account, which the Customer had to reasonably incur to take emergency dispositions on account of ArvanCloud’s failure to deliver within the binding terms of delivery, less possible savings, also in the case of direct damage.

No damage compensation whatsoever will be imputable to ArvanCloud for damages suffered by the Customer on account of the dissolution of the agreement. ArvanCloud has the right to claim payment from the Customer for all Products and/or Services delivered to the Customer up to the moment of dissolution of the agreement.
16.1. Each party has the right to dissolve the agreement out of court in the event that the other party should fail to fulfil its obligations in the frame of the agreement and should remain incapable of remedying the breach within a reasonable timeframe after having received due notice in writing. Dissolution does not discharge the Customer of any obligation of payment for Products and/or Services already delivered by ArvanCloud, unless ArvanCloud is to be considered in breach with respect to a certain Product or Service.
16.2. ArvanCloud has the right to dissolve the agreement immediately without advance notice and without being considered liable for any kind of damage compensation to the Customer if suspension of payment has been granted to the Customer, if a declared state of bankruptcy has been requested for the Customer, if (part of) the possessions of the Customer have been seized, if the company of the Customer finds itself in a state of liquidation or goes out of business, if the Customer commits acts in violation of the (inter)national laws and regulations or if the Customer has supplied false information to ArvanCloud.
16.3. Immediately after the dissolution of the agreement (whichever the reason of dissolution), the Customer will stop using Products and/or results of Services provided to it and will return all programs, documentation and other material provided to it in the frame of the agreement.
16.4. Early termination of the agreement must be notified in writing, observing a period of notice of three (3) months at the end of the agreed period, unless otherwise agreed. The termination may be notified through (E)-mail, fax, or trough ArvanCloud’s online ticket system on the understanding that the period of notice will begin on the day that ArvanCloud receives the notice of termination. Gameservers and voiceservers have a minimum rental period of one (1) month and period of notice of one (1) month. Dedicated servers ordered through the automatic ordering process have a minimum rental period of one (1) month and a period of notice of one (1) month. A custom order/invoice has a minimum agreement of twelve (12) months and a period of notice of three (3) months. The notice of termination should mention the personal information and the customer number (if any). The notice should also bear the signature of the Customer.

If you decide to discontinue receiving services, you need to stop all services in the user account and delete the information related to each service. If you fail to do so, the service will be considered active and you will be responsible for its settlement. Canceling any of ArvanCloud services requires you to officially declare that you no longer need the data related to any service.
If the financial status of your user account becomes debited (negative amount), your services will be treated according to the rules mentioned in the "Suspension for Nonpayment" section. If ArvanCloud decides that the user's activity damages the company's infrastructure and business or affects the services provided to users of ArvanCloud or any other user of the Internet- now or in the future- the company can terminate the user’s access to products and services without notice and will inform the account owner about this situation via email. The user's use of services and products of ArvanCloud must be based on the Fair Usage Policy. If ArvanCloud detects that the user is exceeding Fair Usage Policies, it can immediately and without the user’s consent terminate services and access to products and will inform the user of this situation via email. Whether or not the user is exceeding the limits of Fair Usage is usually decided by ArvanCloud experts.
Also, if you intend to use ArvanCloud products for non-defined and irregular purposes, ArvanCloud can immediately detect it and terminate your service, and limit your account without notice.
