Terms of Service

1. Agreement to Terms

By accessing and reading HostSage (hostsage.dev), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, please discontinue using the website.

2. Technical & Hosting Advice Disclaimer

All content published on HostSage—including configuration snippets, shell commands, benchmarks, architectural diagrams, and provider evaluations—is provided strictly for educational and informational purposes on an “as is” basis.

• No Hosting Guarantee: HostSage does not guarantee server uptime, latency figures, security robustness, or SLA compliance for any third-party hosting company or cloud service mentioned.
• No Professional or Legal Advice: Discussions on offshore hosting, data sovereignty, GDPR, or cybercrime regulations reflect technical analysis and public sources, not legal counsel.
• Execution Responsibility: Server administration carries inherent risks of data loss, service interruption, or security breach. You are solely responsible for verifying configurations, backing up data, and testing scripts in a staging environment before applying them to production servers.

3. Affiliate Links & Commercial Disclosures

In compliance with FTC guidelines and webmaster standards, please note that HostSage may include affiliate links in the future.

If you click an affiliate link and make a purchase, HostSage may receive a referral commission at no additional cost to you. These commissions help maintain server hosting and research costs. However, affiliate partnerships never dictate which providers we review or how we rate them. All criticisms, latency benchmarks, and operational cautions remain unbiased.

All original articles, editorial text, reviews, and custom illustrations published on HostSage are the intellectual property of Shayan Ali and individual contributing authors, protected by copyright law.

Full article scraping, automatic aggregation, or republishing of complete text without prior written permission is prohibited. Short excerpts may be quoted provided clear attribution and a direct link to the original article on hostsage.dev are included. Unless stated otherwise, standalone shell scripts and configuration snippets in our tutorials are released under the MIT License for use in your own projects.
