Lifetime Hosting Terms

Last updated: 9 September 2026

These terms define what HostingTom means by lifetime hosting and the conditions that apply to one-time-payment plans.

1. Meaning of “Lifetime”

For HostingTom lifetime hosting products, “lifetime” means the commercial lifetime of the purchased HostingTom lifetime hosting service while HostingTom continues to operate and offer/support that service category. It does not mean the biological lifetime of any individual, perpetual operation of particular hardware, or a guarantee that any specific technology or datacenter will exist forever.

2. One-Time Fee

The initial one-time fee covers the base hosting service described in the plan. Optional licenses, domain renewals, premium support, dedicated IPs, migrations, third-party add-ons, taxes or future upgrades may carry separate charges.

3. Technology and Migration

HostingTom may replace hardware, control panels, operating systems, storage technology, datacenter locations or upstream suppliers as technology changes. We may migrate a lifetime account to reasonably comparable infrastructure where necessary for security, sustainability or service continuity.

4. Fair Use

Lifetime plans remain subject to the AUP and Fair Usage & Resource Policy. “Unlimited” features do not permit abusive compute, bulk archival storage, excessive I/O, spam or use that materially harms shared infrastructure.

5. Discontinuation

If a specific lifetime product or underlying technology becomes commercially or technically unsustainable, HostingTom may transition the Customer to a reasonably comparable service, provide a migration path, or discontinue the affected service where no reasonable alternative exists, subject to applicable law.

6. Refund Period

Where the product page advertises a 30-day money-back guarantee, the initial one-time payment is eligible under the Refund & Cancellation Policy. After that period, the lifetime fee is non-refundable except where law requires otherwise.

7. Transferability

Lifetime plans are assigned to the purchasing account and are not transferable or resellable unless HostingTom approves the transfer in writing.
