1. Introduction & Acceptance
Server Anywhere ("Server Anywhere", "we", "us", "our") is a cloud and hosting service provider offering Web Hosting, Reseller Hosting, BDIX and International VPS, RDP, Dedicated Servers, Domain Registration and related services ("Services").
By creating an account, placing an order or using any of our Services, you ("Client", "you") confirm that you are at least 18 years old (or have the consent of a legal guardian) and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service, including the Acceptable Use Policy and Privacy terms below. If you do not agree, do not use our Services.
2. Account & Identity Verification (KYC)
- You must provide accurate, complete and up-to-date information (full name, address, email and a valid mobile number) and keep it updated from your Client Area.
- In line with the rules of the Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC), we may ask you to verify your identity with a National ID (NID) or Passport at any time, including when changing account details, during suspension review, or for security and fraud checks.
- BDIX VPS (and any other product marked as KYC-required) requires NID/KYC verification. You must submit valid documents from your Client Area within the deadline shown there.
- Accounts created with false or misleading information may be suspended or terminated without notice and without refund.
- You are responsible for keeping your login details secure and for all activity carried out through your account. Inform us immediately if you suspect unauthorised access.
3. Orders & Service Delivery
- An order is an offer to purchase. It is accepted once payment is confirmed and the service is activated. We may refuse or cancel any order before activation; any payment for a cancelled order will be refunded or credited.
- Web Hosting, Reseller Hosting, VPS, RDP and Domains are normally delivered instantly after payment, but may take 5 to 30 minutes, or longer if a technical, payment or verification check is needed.
- Dedicated Servers may take from a few hours up to 72 hours to deliver, depending on hardware availability.
- If an invoice still shows unpaid after you paid through a gateway, open a billing ticket with the transaction details. Confirming the payment with the gateway can take 6 to 72 hours.
- For manual payments, please use the correct invoice number as the reference. If the wrong invoice number is used, the wrong invoice may be marked as paid. Such payments will not be refunded; a new payment will be needed for the correct invoice.
4. Payments & Billing
- All Services are prepaid and billed in advance for the selected billing cycle (monthly, quarterly, yearly, etc.).
- We accept bKash, Nagad, and Bank Transfer (and other methods shown in the Client Area). Online gateways may add a processing fee, which is shown before you pay. Applicable VAT/taxes (for example 5% VAT on certain gateways) are added where required.
- Manual payments (bank, bKash/Nagad send money, etc.) can take 5 minutes to 12 hours to verify.
- Renewal invoices are generated before the due date, and reminders are sent by email. Not receiving a reminder does not remove your responsibility to pay on time.
- A late fee may be added to invoices that are not paid by the due date, as shown on the invoice. Overdue services can only be reactivated after the full amount, including late fees, is paid.
- Prices may change. Any change applies from your next renewal, and we will try to give advance notice.
- Payments made in excess of the amount owed are added to your account as credit.
- Chargebacks / payment disputes: please contact us via a billing ticket first. Filing a dispute without contacting us may lead to immediate suspension of all services, and we may recover any related fees.
5. Overdue, Suspension & Termination
| When | What happens |
|---|---|
| Due date | The invoice must be paid on or before this date. |
| 1 day after the due date | The service is automatically suspended. Websites, servers and email stop working. |
| 7 days after the due date | The service is permanently terminated and all data is deleted. |
- A suspended service is reactivated automatically once the invoice (including any late fee) is paid.
- We do not provide backups or data copies for suspended services. Please take your own backups before your due date.
- Once terminated, a service cannot be restored by paying the old invoice, and no data can be recovered. A new order will be required.
- We may also suspend or terminate any service immediately, without refund, for violation of these Terms, abuse, fraud, failure to complete KYC, or a request from a legal authority.
- Any amount owed at termination remains your responsibility.
6. Refund Policy
| Service | Refund rule |
