What happens if an invoice is overdue?
Invoices are due on the invoice due date. If unpaid, the server is suspended immediately on the due date. Suspended servers are held for exactly 7 days (1 week). If an invoice remains unpaid after 7 days, the server, storage volume, and all backups are permanently destroyed and cannot be recovered.

What is your uptime SLA and compensation policy?
We guarantee a 99.9% uptime SLA. If there is unannounced downtime exceeding 3 hours without prior notice, we add 1 day of compensation credits to your client balance, which can be applied toward your next month's server renewal. Check live status at status.sparkyhost.in.
Do you offer free server migration and custom coding?
