Hello everyone,

I have a quick question for y'all. I have recently transferred to a reseller account, but I am not sure on the legal implications of being a reseller. Basically it all revolves around who is actually providing the "Service" to the clients (both the reseller, and the resellers clients). I realise that I need to have some kind of ToS, but should this be the same as the hosting company providing my service, or should I have my own one as a reseller (which still falls within the limits of my providers ToS)?

If you need to see the ToS which my provider has its available at http://order.flying-hosts.com/rhindex.html.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Kev.

i'm interested in this too, but make sure u have something that states that u are not in control of the servers and cannot be held responsible for downtime or data loss.
