Our
Guarantee:
We'll do what we promise. Our guarantees are based not on arbitrary
facts or figures, but on our pledge to follow through consistently.
Unlike some, we guarantee that we will live up to our guarantees!
60-Days Complete
Satisfaction Guarantee
If for any reason you
are unsatisfied with our service within your first 60 days, simply
notify us and your contract fees will be reversed. No advanced notification
required, no paperwork, no red tape, no catches whatsoever.
Note that the 60 day period ends exactly 60 days from the day on
which account was originally activated (not the day the order was
placed). This guarantee is VOID if your account violates our TOS
or service agreement.
Backed by: Full Refund (within 60 days)*
99.9% Uptime Guarantee
You pay us so that your
site will be online. When it's not online, you shouldn't have to
pay. It's that simple.
We rarely have server issues that result in downtime, but on occasion,
we will encounter a hardware or software issue that may cause a
brief service interruption.
In all but the most urgent cases, we will send out an email notifying
customers of maintenance that is to be performed. When notice is
sent at least two hours prior to service interruption, the outage
does not qualify for our uptime guarantee.
Service credits are calculated as follows (all times are stated
in downtime per month):
* Less than 45 minutes (100% - 99.9% uptime) -- No credit
* 45 minutes to 3 hours 30 minutes (99.9% - 99.5% uptime) -- 5%
credit
* 3 hours 30 minutes to 7 hours 15 minutes (99.5% - 99% uptime)
-- 10% credit
* 7 hours 15 minutes to 14 hours 30 minutes (99% - 98% uptime) --
15% credit
* 14 hours 30 minutes to 1.5 days (98% - 95% uptime) -- 25% credit
* Greater than 1.5 days (less than 95% uptime) -- 100% credit
Contact our billing department to request a service credit in accordance
with our Site Availability Guarantee. Service credits issued for
downtime are issued in the form of credits to your Yahku!com account,
and will be automatically applied to future invoices. Cash refunds
will not be issued as a result of downtime. Site availability guarantee
does not include downtime that is out of Yahku!com's control, including
but not limited to: upstream network outages, internet backbone
congestion, outages caused by acts of god, and facility power failures.
Account must also be in good standing and not in violation of our
TOS or Acceptable Use policies.

24-Hour Maximum Support Response Guarantee
Support
is our business--it's what we're known for. All the features in
the world are worthless unless they are backed by a strong and easy-to-use
support infrastructure.
Any support request that is submitted through our specified support
channels is guaranteed to receive a response within 24 hours. Please
note that this does not mean that our average response takes 24
hours. Our average ticket response time is under 25 minutes--even
in the middle of the night!
Bear in mind that support response guarantee does not include billing,
sales, and abuse report emails. Support response guarantee does
not guarantee resolution within 24 hours, but a response from a
human (non-automated response). Total credits in a given month cannot
exceed 100% of customer's hosting fees for the account which the
requests were in reference to.
Additional Notes:
* This does not include reimbursement for domain name registration,
or any other external services purchased while under Yahku.com.
Make sure your files are backed up when you request cancellation,
as accounts and account backups will be promptly terminated. Refunds
for accounts with payment methods besides Credit Card, including
wire transfers, checks, and money orders, may take an extended amount
of time to process. After your 60 days are up, you cannot receive
a full refund, but may cancel at any time.
** In order to file for cancellation, refund or credit, please
submit a copy of your activation letter to our billing department
along with a request for cancellation/refund and the reason why.
If you do not have a copy of your activation letter please include
your: name, account login, password, domain name and last 4 digits
of your account's credit card (if paying with a credit card) to
our billing department. This procedure also applies for non-refund
cancellations (those that occur outside of the 60 day window).
