A reminder will be sent to the primary account holder for your domains. If you have domains registered with CloudAccess.net you will receive the following notices when your domain is about to expire.

- 5 days before your domain will expire: Third renewal notice
If you fail to renew your domain name before it expires, you risk losing it. Domain names do not go into a "suspend" status. You either renew it or they expire. Be sure to mark your calendars to hlep you remember your renewal date.
Termination of Service
CloudAccess.net reserves the right to terminate an account and delete all data for non-payment 40 days after the invoice due date. For example, if the invoice was due on July 1st and you did not pay the bill we will send you notices and/or calls asking you if you will be paying the open invoice. If you do not pay we reserve the right to automatically terminate/cancel your account from our services. In this example, your account could be terminated on August 10th if the payment is not received.
Restoration After Termination
As a courtesy and NOT a guaranteed service, after we remove the data from our production servers the data does sit in our backup servers for at least thirteen more business days. Contact customer service if you need the data restored. We should be able to dig out the site. Any customers requesting data to be restored will be required to upgrade their terminated instance to a hosting package. This is a non-refundable payment. The reason for this charge is due to our team members having to do manual labor to pull out the archived data.
Cancellation of Service
We have one way to cancel services. Our staff will not and cannot cancel services for you. It is for the security of your data that we require you to login to your secure Cloud Control Panel™(CCP) to cancel services.
Please note: All cancellation requests will be processed at the end of your established billing cycle. If you would like your website taken down prior to the end of your billing cycle simply submit a support ticket to the billing department from your Cloud Control Panel™(CCP) with your request. This can only be done after the cancellation request has been submitted.
