TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Effective Date: January 10, 2026
PLEASE READ THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE USING OUR SERVICES. BY ACCESSING, REGISTERING FOR, OR USING THE SERVICES PROVIDED BY HostifyX, YOU SIGNIFY YOUR AGREEMENT TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO ALL OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, DO NOT ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICES.
Part I. Service Structure, Definitions & Asset Disclaimer
This Master Service Agreement (“Agreement”) governs the use of services provided through HostifyX.com (a proprietary domain and brand of Ultimalayer LLC) and is a legal contract between Ultimalayer LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company (“Ultimalayer”, “we”, or “us”), and the entity or individual accepting these terms (“Customer” or “you”).
1. Definitions The “Service” is defined strictly as a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access Ultimalayer’s virtualization software and network routing optimization platform. It does not constitute a lease of hardware.
2. Acceptance & E-SIGN Compliance By clicking “I Agree,” creating an account, or using the Services, Customer expressly agrees to be bound by this Agreement. Pursuant to the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (15 U.S.C. § 7001 et seq.), Customer acknowledges that their electronic assent constitutes a binding legal signature.
3. Warranty of Commercial Use (Non-Consumer) Customer represents and warrants that they are a business entity, sole proprietor, or other professional organization accessing the Services solely for commercial or business purposes. Customer agrees that any misrepresentation of their B2B status constitutes a material breach of this Agreement.
4. Indemnity for False Representation If Customer falsifies their status as a business entity to evade commercial terms, Customer agrees to indemnify Ultimalayer for all legal costs incurred in defending against consumer protection claims and allows for immediate termination of the Agreement.
5. Title I Information Service Status Ultimalayer declares that its Services are classified as “Information Services” under Title I of the Communications Act (47 U.S.C. § 153) and are not “Telecommunications Services” or Common Carrier services subject to FCC Title II regulation.
6. Asset Ownership Disclaimer Ultimalayer acts as a virtualization aggregator. Ultimalayer does not hold legal title to the physical infrastructure, data centers, or servers. All physical assets remain the property of third-party upstream providers.
Part II. Financial Terms, Auto-Renewal & Tax Shield
7. Fees & Net of Taxes All fees are exclusive of taxes. Prices displayed do not include VAT, GST, Sales Tax, or other government levies.
8. Global Tax Liability Shift Customer is solely responsible for determining, reporting, and remitting all applicable taxes worldwide. Ultimalayer is NOT a “Marketplace Facilitator” and assumes no liability for Customer’s tax obligations.
9. Automatic Renewal & Authorization (ROSCA Compliance) Customer expressly authorizes Ultimalayer to automatically charge the payment method on file for renewal fees at the start of each billing cycle. Subscription continues until cancelled. Customer may cancel at any time via the Client Portal or by submitting a support ticket; cancellation becomes effective at the end of the current billing cycle.
10. No-Refund Policy Due to the consumable nature of bandwidth and compute resources, ALL SALES ARE FINAL. Services are deemed “consumed” immediately upon provisioning of credentials.
11. SLA as Sole Remedy In the event of service interruption, Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy is the receipt of Service Credits as defined in the SLA. Monetary refunds are explicitly excluded.
12. Dispute Handling Unauthorized chargebacks will result in immediate service termination and assessment of a reasonable administrative fee to cover dispute resolution costs.
Part III. Operational Rights & Law Enforcement
13. Right to Suspend Ultimalayer reserves the right to suspend Services immediately, without notice, for legal requests, security risks, abuse patterns, or non-payment.
14. Right to Modify Services We may update, deprecate, or modify features or routing nodes at any time without liability.

17. Beta Services Services marked as “Beta” or “Preview” are provided “AS IS” without warranty and are excluded from all SLAs.
