We will setup your account after we
have received payment and we and/or our payment partner(s)

Transfers
Our transfers team will make every effort to help you move
your site to us, however, we can not make guarantees of the
transfer process. We provide this as a courtesy service and

differently. We will try our best, however, in some cases we
may be unable to assist you in a transfer of data from an old
host.

is not within the 99.9% uptime you may receive one month of
credit on your account. Approval of the credit is at the
discretion of Ohana Online dependant upon justification
provided. Third party monitoring service reports may not be
used for justification due to a variety of factors including
the monitor's network capacity/transit availability. The
uptime of the server is defined as the reported uptime from
the operating system of the server which may differ from the
uptime reported by individual services. To request a credit,
please contact contact@ohanaonline.com with justification. All
requests must be made in writing via email. Uptime guarantees
only apply to shared / reseller solutions.
10.) Shared (non-reseller accounts)
Shared accounts may not resell web
hosting to other people, if you wish to resell hosting you
must use a reseller account.
12.) Dedicated Servers
Ohana Online reserves the right to reset the password on a
dedicated server if the password on file is not current so
that we may do security audits as required by our datacenter.
It is the responsibility of the client to ensure that there is
a valid email address and current root password on file for
their dedicated server on file to prevent downtime from forced
password resets. Ohana Online reserves the right to audit
servers as needed and to perform administrative actions at the
request of our datacenter. Dedicated servers are NOT backed up
by us and it is the responsibility of the client to maintain
backups or have a solution for this. You may purchase an
additional hard drive and maintain backups to it as the most
simple solution. Please contact contact@ohanaonline.com if you
wish to obtain a secondary hard drive. It is your
responsibility to maintain backups.
