DoğruHost reserves the right to suspend or close your account in cases of suspected security breach, contract violation, or legal obligation.
4. Payment Terms
Service fees are invoiced at the price specified during ordering. Unless stated as VAT inclusive, the applicable VAT rate is added to the price.
Payments can be made by credit card, bank transfer/EFT, or other payment methods accepted by DoğruHost.
For services with auto-renewal enabled, you will be notified before the end of the period and the new period fee will be automatically charged. You can cancel auto-renewal at any time.
In case of non-payment or delay, DoğruHost reserves the right to suspend or terminate the service. Data in suspended accounts is retained for a certain period; data may be deleted after this period.
5. Refund and Cancellation Policy
DoğruHost offers a 15-day money-back guarantee on certain services for new customers. Refund conditions may vary by service type.
Domain registration and transfer services, SSL certificates, and third-party licenses are excluded from the refund scope.
Cancellation requests can be made through your customer panel or by contacting our support team. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period.

6. Acceptable Use Policy
The following activities are strictly prohibited when using DoğruHost services:
Sending spam emails or distributing bulk unsolicited messages.
Hosting or distributing malicious software (malware, viruses, trojans, etc.).
Conducting DDoS attacks or facilitating such attacks.
Copyright infringement, hosting or distributing pirated content.
Hosting illegal content (child exploitation material, terrorist propaganda, etc.).

Any activity that violates Turkish laws or international law.

7. Resource Usage and Limitations
Each service package is limited to specific CPU, RAM, disk space, and bandwidth resources. These limits are specified in the technical specifications of your service package.
In shared hosting services, fair sharing of server resources is essential. DoğruHost reserves the right to intervene if a single account excessively uses server resources and negatively affects other users.
In case of resource overuse, DoğruHost may suggest upgrading to a higher package or temporarily restrict resources.
8. Service Level Agreement (SLA)
DoğruHost offers a 99.9% uptime guarantee for server and network infrastructure. This guarantee is valid except for planned maintenance and force majeure events.
Planned maintenance is announced in advance whenever possible and scheduled during low-traffic hours.
In case of SLA violation, service credit may be provided for the affected period. Credit requests must be made within 7 days of the outage date.
9. Backup and Data Responsibility
DoğruHost provides periodic backup services for certain services. However, these backups are an additional security measure and do not constitute a guarantee against data loss.
The customer is ultimately responsible for regularly backing up their own data. It is strongly recommended that you take local or external backups of your important data.
In case of data loss, DoğruHost will make reasonable efforts to restore from available backups; however, it does not accept liability for damages arising from data loss.
10. Intellectual Property

The customer owns the intellectual property rights of their own content hosted on DoğruHost services and is responsible for the legality of such content.
11. Limitation of Liability
DoğruHost provides its services "as is" and makes no express or implied warranties (except as required by law).
DoğruHost cannot be held liable for indirect damages, loss of profit, data loss, business loss, or reputation loss.
DoğruHost's total liability under any claim cannot exceed the total amount paid for the service in question in the last 12 months.
DoğruHost cannot be held responsible for outages or disruptions caused by force majeure (natural disasters, war, terrorism, pandemics, legal regulations, internet infrastructure failures, etc.).
12. Termination of Agreement
The customer may terminate the agreement at any time by canceling their services. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the active billing period.
DoğruHost may immediately terminate the agreement due to violation of terms of use, non-payment, or illegal activities.
In case of agreement termination, the customer is given a reasonable period to download their data (except in urgent security situations). Data may be deleted after this period.

This Agreement is subject to the laws of the Republic of Turkey.
In case of disputes between the parties, reconciliation is first attempted. If reconciliation cannot be achieved, Istanbul Courts and Enforcement Offices are authorized.
