Our services must not be used for anything that is deemed illegal under UK law. They also cannot be used for the following purposes;
Game Servers
We offer a 5-day money back guarantee on all game servers (this does not include dedicated servers).
If you are outside of the 5-day guarantee, refunds are not allowed unless your service has been severely disrupted by us. These refunds are still at the discretion of Swiftping Limited t/a LOW.MS.
Refunds are not provided for renewals, unless a cancellation request has been made (See "Renewing and Cancelling Your Service") 24 hours prior to your renewal.
Any game servers that require further manual setup, such as ATLAS or ARK clusters, are non-refundable.
DDoS attacks are not classed as service disruption caused by Swiftping Limited t/a LOW.MS, and so no refunds will be provided in the event your game service is unavailable due to a DDoS attack.
Dedicated Servers
Dedicated servers are non-refundable. However, we do provide refunds in certain instances where a problem is caused by Swiftping t/a LOW.MS. This could be because of the following reasons;
In the case that your service is eligible for a refund, a full refund will be provided if your service is less than 48 hours old. If your service has been active and working for longer than this, then a refund would be calculated as follows;
(Service Cost / Billing Term) * Days remaining in billing term
All refund claims are under the discretion of Swiftping Limited t/a LOW.MS.
The following is not allowed with all our dedicated server services;
Some of our hardware is overclocked as standard, or can be overclocked upon request (via support ticket). If your service is overclocked, this does not exclude you from the above rules.
If any of your services are found to be breaking the above rules, your service will be terminated. You will also be charged £20.00 excl. VAT per violation.
The above list may change at any time.
Swiftping Limited will not be held responsible for the backing up and integrity of customers data. In the case that data loss may occur, you will be held responsible for your own data and a refund cannot be offered if outside the 5-day distance-selling policy. When a hard drive or SSD fails, we will replace the failed hardware within 24 hours.
If you have outstanding bills for your services, then this can lead to data loss through server reinstallation after 5 days of being overdue.
Customers who have a game server may utilise our cloud backup service, which will backup all important files for your service such as saves, world data and player data. This can be run manually or scheduled to happen at a recurring time.
Your service with us will be automatically renewed at the end of your billing period.
Payment will automatically be taken via our payment processor Stripe (if you paid by credit/debit card).

There are two types of cancellations, "immediate" and "end of billing period". An immediate cancellation will be processed within 24 hours of the cancellation being submitted. An end of billing period cancellation will be processed on or after the day of your billing date. Unless otherwise requested, all cancellations will by default be "end of billing period" cancellations.
If a payment has not been received within 72 hours after the stated due date on the invoice, your service will be suspended. Upon receiving a payment while your service is suspended, your service will be unsuspended.
If payment is not recieved within 4 days after the stated due date on the invoice, your service will be terminated and all data belonging to your service will be irrerversibly deleted. Once terminated, a service can not be re-activated. We may take backups prior to termination, but we do not guarantee this.
We will make an attempt to charge your payment method once a day up until a cancellation request is received, or your service is terminated. We will attempt to charge you while your service is suspended.
