Terms Of Service

Backbone Technologies (M) Sdn. Bhd. provides web hosting to clients worldwide, and we have a responsibility to protect each client and to provide the best services available. All clients of Backbone Technologies (M) Sdn. Bhd. are subject to the following terms of service:

Billing

At this time we only bill annually (one year). We accept payment via cheque and bank transfer. Please note that we will setup your account and email your login information immediately upon receipt of payment. For future billing, Backbone Technologies (M) Sdn. Bhd. will send you a bill via email notifying you of the amount due. 

Delinquent Accounts

Your email billing will notify you of the due date for your payment. If payment is not received by that due date, we will suspend your account. We will then notify you of this via email. If we still do not hear from you within two weeks we will automatically delete your account from our servers.

If you know that you are going on vacation (or will be away for an extended period of time) and a billing cycle is approaching you need to notify us in order to make other payment arrangements or pay ahead of time. We will work with you, but we must be notified or else you risk losing your account. With as many accounts as we have, we would rather spend time helping clients with hosting issues or adding new features to our services than chasing payments. So, please, make every effort to submit payments in a timely manner.

Account Cancellations

When you need to cancel an account, please email Billing@Backbone.com.my and our billing representative will be in touch with you.

Backbone Technologies (M) Sdn. Bhd. will send you an email reminder one month prior to your hosting account renewal date. Should you decide to stay with Backbone Technologies (M) Sdn. Bhd. or if you would like to cancel, please reply to our email and let us know.
