Last Updated on July 2, 2024

Introduction

Welcome to our cloud hosting services. These Terms of Service (TOS) govern your use of our websites and services. By accessing or using our services, you agree to be bound by these terms. Please read them carefully to ensure you understand your rights and obligations. This TOS is designed to provide you with a comprehensive understanding of our terms and policies, ensuring a clear and transparent relationship between us.

Definitions

When we refer to “Nexgenbusiness” or we use pronouns like “we”, “us” or “our”, we are referring to Nexgenbusiness LDA as well as its parents, affiliates, and subsidiaries.

When we refer to the “User”, we are talking about you, and we will also use words like “you” and “your” to refer to you. Who “you” are can get more complicated if you are using our services on behalf of a company, organization, or other entity. In that case, you are representing to us that you have the authority to bind your company, organization, or other entity to this TOS and that you agree to be legally bound by this TOS on behalf of such entity (and “User”, “you”, and “your” then refer to such entity). If you aren’t sure what this means or whether you are authorized to bind your company, organization, or entity to this contract, you should ask others in your organization to get clarification about authority.
