The Company reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to modify or replace these Terms from time to time by posting the updated terms on the Site.

Transfers from Other Providers
Upon your request, our transfer team will make every effort to help you move your site to us. However, transfers are provided as a courtesy service, and we can not make guarantees regarding the availability, possibility, or time required to complete an account transfer. Each hosting company is configured differently, and some hosting platforms save data in an incompatible or proprietary format, which may make it extremely difficult if not impossible to migrate some or all account data. Whilst we will endeavour to assist with the transfer, in some cases, we may be unable to assist you in the transfer of data from an old host.
The free transfer services are available for 30 days from your signup date. Transfers outside of the 30-day free period will incur a charge; please contact us at support@hostintelligence.com.ng with specific details to receive a price quote.
Transfers of Registered Accounts and Websites
In order to access the account of any of our registered clients or have the account transferred to you or another registrar, we will require you to establish your relationship with our registered client. When you have established your relationship with our registered client, we will notify the registered client of your request. Upon receiving the written consent of the registered client to transfer the account to you and upon receiving a signed indemnity letter from you, we will transfer the website to you or your preferred registrar.
Where you claim that your website was developed by any of our registered clients, we will require the registered client’s written consent to transfer the website either to you or another registrar.
Where you claim that the registered client is dead, we will require you to provide us with the registered client’s death certificate. Upon providing us with the death certificate, you will need to sign a letter of undertaking and indemnity and depose to an affidavit stating that they are assuming responsibility for the account and would indemnify Hostintelligence from all liability.
