Terms of Service
Turbo-FTP provides a File Transfer Hosting Service. Turbo-FTP maintains certain legal and ethical responsibilities regarding the use of its host server network and equipment involved with these services.
Turbo-FTP's general policy is to act as a neutral provider of hosting services to the global Internet. Turbo-FTP has specific ethical concerns regarding the use of its servers as detailed below. Turbo-FTP reserves the right to suspend or cancel a customer's access to any or all services provided when Turbo-FTP decides that the account has been inappropriately used.
Hosting Services
All sites provided by Turbo-FTP are for the sole purpose of storing files to be transferred by the site owner. It is the responsibility of the site owner to back up his files. All Turbo-FTP sites are provided with virtually unlimited file transfer capabilities. All sites may be upgraded at any time with additional storage space and user accounts as needed. It is at the discretion of Turbo-FTP to determine if the bandwidth used by any customers is considered excessive. If so, it may be possible for a customer to purchase additional bandwidth. Turbo-FTP provides customers the ability to monitor the activities of their site.
Turbo-FTP provides a gateway that is password protected and permits the customer to authorize access and administer their site. For privacy reasons, anonymous FTP and pseudo-anonymous FTP logins are not allowed. Turbo-FTP reserves the right to monitor all customer sites and to remove objectionable material at any time without prior notice.
Payment Policies
All pricing is guaranteed for the term of payment received. Turbo-FTP reserves the right to change prices at any time. Payments are due based on the site package billing cycle selected: monthly, quarterly or annually. The payment is due, in full, at the beginning of the billing cycle. Any account past due more than 7 days is subject to suspension. The customer is responsible for all money owed on the account from the time it is established to the time that the customer notifies Turbo-FTP in writing to request a termination of services.
Credit Card Orders
Accounts will be automatically billed, on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis, to the card number of Paypal account on file unless otherwise notified. All credit card payments will be billed on the day of the month their account is due.
In the event their bank declines the credit card, the customer will be notified by email or phone to the email/phone number on file. Past due accounts that are not brought current within 10 days of the notice are subject to suspension and possible account termination.
There will be a $25 Re-Activation Fee on any accounts suspended and then later re-activated. The customer is responsible to notify Turbo-FTP of any address changes, name changes to the credit card on file as well as updating the expiration date when necessary.
Cancellation Policy
Turbo-FTP reserves the right to cancel service at any time. All fees paid in advance of cancellation will be pro-rated and paid if Turbo-FTP institutes its right of cancellation. If cancellation is caused by customer's violation of our policies, then no refund is due.
Due to security concerns, account cancellation must be confirmed in writing via email. The letter should include the primary contact of the account and include the Account ID and Account Name.
If any company refunds are due, a credit will be posted to the credit card on file within 15 days of receipt of cancellation. The account will be cancelled and all information deleted at the end of the current billing period, unless a date of cancellation is specified. Setup fees are not refundable.
If you are on a monthly, quarterly, or annual billing plan and we have not been notified prior to renewal in a manner abiding by our written terms and conditions, your account will be renewed, and your credit card or Paypal account charged.

Turbo-FTP reserves the right to refuse service and/or access to its servers to anyone. Turbo-FTP is designed for private person-to-person business file deliveries.

Overage Policy
Turbo-FTP offers various FTP hosting packages. Each customer will have the ability to monitor his own disk space and bandwidth utilization. If the client surpasses the disk space allowed, the client can adjust their usage, by upgrading to a larger package. If the amount of bandwidth consumed is considered excessive causing the overall performance of the server to slow down, you will be notified to make the appropriate changes either to your site or to your volume of activity.
