6.3 Support. HIDORA provides support via the portal/ticketing system and a helpdesk during published hours, with potential additional support levels depending on the offering.

6.4 Third-Party and Open-Source Software: Some Services rely on third-party software or Open-Source components.

7.4 Personality Rights and Unlawful Content. The Client warrants that its Content does not infringe personality rights (image, voice, sensitive data), copyright/trademark, trade secrets, or criminal law. HIDORA implements a Notice & Action mechanism (Appendix C) for third-party claims; in case of obvious risk, HIDORA may temporarily remove or suspend the disputed content.

8.3 Location : Unless otherwise specified, hosting is performed in Switzerland. Related processing (e.g., anti-DDoS, monitoring, support, backups) may involve subcontractors listed and contractually governed. Transfers outside Switzerland/EEA, if applicable, rely on a recognized mechanism (EU standard contractual clauses + Swiss addendum, or adequacy decision), with supplementary measures.

8.4 Confidentiality : Each Party shall protect the other Party’s confidential information during the term of the Agreement and for 3 years after its termination (without limiting trade secrets, which remain protected as long as they are secret). These obligations do not apply to information that is public, lawfully obtained from a third party, or independently developed. Confidentiality unrelated to Personal Data is governed by Appendix E (Confidentiality), which prevails in case of any conflict with this article.

9. Backups, business continuity, and reversibility

9.1 Backups : Unless otherwise specified by option/subscription, application-level backups are the Client’s responsibility. HIDORA may offer backup/DRaaS solutions under the Special Conditions.

Unless otherwise specified, HIDORA retains the Content for thirty (30) days following expiration or termination to allow the Client to retrieve it, and then permanently deletes it within the following thirty (30) days. The technical procedures for return and deletion are detailed in Article 11 of Appendix D – “Return and Deletion of Data.”

10. Fees, invoicing and taxes

Unless otherwise stipulated in the Order, prepaid day packages (« carnets de jours ») are valid for three hundred and sixty-five (365) calendar days from the invoice date. Any unused days upon expiry of this period are forfeited and shall not give rise to any refund or carry-over.

Appendix A – Acceptable Use Policy (AUP)

1. Purpose and Scope

This Acceptable Use Policy governs all use of the Services by the Client, its Users, subcontractors, and Affiliates.

It complements the General Terms and Conditions and the Special Conditions. Any breach of the AUP constitutes a violation of the Agreement.

2. General Principles

The Client uses the Services legally, securely, and responsibly. It refrains from any action that could harm the Environment operated by HIDORA, other clients, or third parties.

The Client continuously respects personality rights, intellectual property, and applicable data protection laws.

3. Illegal or Harmful Content

The Client must not host, transmit, publish, or make available content that infringes copyrights, trade secrets, or personality rights, including image, voice, or sensitive data of third parties.

Defamatory, hateful, discriminatory, violent, terrorist, harassing, or threatening content is also prohibited, as is any child sexual abuse material or content inciting criminal activity.

The Client must not engage in phishing, fraud, identity theft, or any other deceptive practices.

More broadly, it ensures that all of its activities remain compliant with applicable laws, including those relating to telecommunications, gambling, regulated goods and services, and advertising.

4. Prohibited Technical Activities

The Client must not propagate malware (including ransomware, backdoors, or botnets), conduct attacks or attempted attacks on systems (e.g., mass scanning, brute force, DDoS/DoS, amplification attacks, injections, XSS, SSRF, privilege escalation, traffic interception or hijacking), or bypass or neutralize security mechanisms such as WAF, IDS/IPS, access control lists, or quotas.

The Client must not operate open relays, open resolvers, or unsecured anonymous proxies.

The Client must not resell the Services without authorization or set up “bulletproof” hosting.

Any use intended to disrupt the availability or performance of the Environment, Services, or third parties is prohibited.

5. Security and Identity Management

Under a shared responsibility model, HIDORA implements technical and organizational measures to protect the Environment.

The Client must implement multi-factor authentication for administrative profiles, apply least-privilege principles, keep systems and applications up to date, harden exposed systems and services, protect secrets (keys, tokens, certificates) and rotate them regularly.

The Client configures firewalls, segments networks, and filters incoming and outgoing traffic.

Where backups are not included in the offering, the Client implements its own backups and regularly tests restoration. It monitors resource usage and responds promptly to any alerts or incidents.

6. Email and Commercial Communications

The Client must not conduct illegal marketing activities or engage in SPAM-like practices. It obtains valid and traceable consent (e.g., double opt-in when appropriate), clearly identifies itself as the sender, provides an immediate unsubscribe mechanism, and retains proof of consent.

The Client implements SPF, DKIM, and DMARC appropriately and does not purchase address lists. The Services must not be used as a mass routing platform without HIDORA’s prior written consent.

7. Resources, Performance, and Fair Use

The Client respects published quotas, API limits, quality of service parameters, and fair-use rules. It does not intentionally overconsume or flood traffic in a way that degrades the Services.

HIDORA may apply proportionate and reasonable measures, such as rate limiting, filtering, network isolation, address blocking, or security patches, to preserve the integrity and availability of the Environment.

8. Personal Data and Personality Rights

The Client ensures it has a legal basis for any Personal Data processing carried out via the Services, informs data subjects in accordance with applicable law, and complies with the FADP and, where applicable, the GDPR.

Content affecting reputation, image, voice, or sensitive data is processed lawfully, necessary, and proportionately.

In the event of a credible allegation of infringement of personality or intellectual property rights, the Notice & Action procedure in Appendix C applies.

9. AI/ML and Digital Assets

When the Client trains, evaluates, or uses AI models via the Services, it strictly complies with applicable law and refrains from processing Personal Data without a proper legal basis. It does not collect or scrape third-party data en masse without rights.

Activities involving digital assets, including mining, staking, or running masternodes, are permitted only with HIDORA’s prior written consent and in compliance with technical, electrical, thermal, sanctions, and export control requirements.

10. Security Testing and Responsible Disclosure

Any intrusion testing or active scanning initiated by the Client requires HIDORA’s prior written consent specifying scope, time slots, and source addresses.

HIDORA supports responsible vulnerability disclosure: reports must be confidential, exploited only to a proportionate proof-of-concept, and must not access, alter, or exfiltrate third-party data.

11. Abuse Reporting and Cooperation

Abuse, Incidents, or suspected misuse must be reported to abuse@hidora.io or via the support portal with evidence. The Client cooperates in good faith with HIDORA to contain Incidents, investigate, revoke compromised secrets, deploy patches, and, if applicable, perform required legal notifications.

HIDORA informs the Client of authority requests where permitted by law and compatible with Environment security.

12. Enforcement and Remedial Measures

In case of actual or suspected AUP violations, HIDORA may take proportionate measures without delay to protect the Environment and third parties, including isolating resources, blocking traffic, or limiting/suspending access to features.

Appendix B – Service Level Agreement (SLA)

1. Purpose and Scope

This SLA defines the service commitments applicable to HIDORA’s cloud offerings (IaaS/PaaS) used in production. It covers the definition and calculation of availability, maintenance windows, measurement methods and evidence conventions, exclusions, service credits, the claim procedure, as well as support and response time commitments. Beta/Preview, test, or evaluation environments are not covered by this SLA.

2. Definition of Availability and Measurement Method

“Availability” means the percentage of time, over a calendar month, during which the control interfaces and critical components of a Service are operational and accept requests in accordance with published specifications. Measurement is performed by HIDORA using internal probes and metrics, excluding the items in Article 6 and outside announced maintenance windows.

An Incident is considered closed when the Service’s nominal capacity is restored and validated by monitoring systems. Logs, metrics, and technical records collected by HIDORA serve as the binding evidence, unless contrary evidence is provided by the Client through consistent technical data.

3. Availability Commitments

HIDORA aims to provide high availability appropriate to the nature of each Service. Target objectives are published on the Service sheet and may vary depending on the architecture deployed by the Client.

When a multi-zone or multi-node configuration is implemented according to documented best practices, actual availability also depends on the Client’s application design, fault tolerance, and failover management.

4. Published Targets

Availability targets and the service credit schedule applicable to each offering are published on the Service sheet.

In case of conflict with a contractual appendix, the appendix prevails for the current period.

Any change is notified at least thirty (30) days in advance and applies only to future periods.

5. Maintenance Windows

Planned maintenance operations occur during the Maintenance Windows published on the Portal/Service sheet. HIDORA provides prior notice for significant interventions. Emergency maintenance may occur outside planned windows when necessary to address a vulnerability or operational risk; HIDORA then provides the best reasonable notice and a post-intervention report.

Where possible, operations are designed to be non-impactful or minimally impactful. Emergency interventions needed to fix critical vulnerabilities may be performed without prior notice if the security or integrity of the Environment requires it.

6. Exclusions

The following are not counted as downtime: (a) announced maintenance windows, (b) unavailability caused by elements not provided by HIDORA or configurations contrary to recommendations, (c) Incidents resulting from voluntary overconsumption, prohibited use under the AUP, or actions by the Client/third parties acting on its behalf, (d) force majeure, (e) limitations of Beta/Preview versions, and (f) interruptions due to legal obligations, authority orders, or security measures required to protect the Environment.

7. Service Credits and Procedure

If an availability target for a Service is not met during a calendar month, the Client may request a service credit corresponding to a percentage of that Service’s monthly fees, according to the schedule published with the Service sheet.

Credits are not refunds and cannot be exchanged for cash; they apply to future invoices and, where applicable, constitute the Client’s sole remedy for unavailability covered by this SLA, without prejudice to the liability limitations in the General Terms. Credit requests must be submitted via ticket through the client portal within thirty (30) days following the end of the relevant month, describing the Incident, dates and times, impact, and affected resources. HIDORA reviews the request against its logs and issues a reasoned decision. Requests submitted outside the deadline or procedure are deemed abandoned.

8. Customer Support and Response Commitment

Customer support is provided on business days, Monday to Friday, from 08:00 to 18:00 CET, via the support portal (support.hidora.io) or email (support@hidora.io).

The infrastructure is monitored and on-call 24/7 to ensure operational continuity.

Response times depend on Incident severity:

• High severity – maximum response time of one hour
  Covers system crashes or suspension, data corruption or loss, or unavailability of critical HIDORA functions without a workaround ;
• Normal severity – maximum response time of two hours
  Covers system restarts or recoveries after errors or failures, severe performance degradation, or restricted operation ;
• Low severity - maximum response time of eight hours
  Covers issues with a workaround, minimal performance degradation, or functional/configuration assistance requests.

These response times are operational objectives; unless otherwise stated in Special Conditions, they do not constitute a guarantee of repair within a specific timeframe.

9. SLA Modifications

HIDORA may adapt this SLA for legal, technical, or operational reasons.

Changes are published and, where applicable, notified to the Client with reasonable notice.

Any modification affecting Availability targets or the credit schedule is notified at least thirty (30) days before implementation and applies only to future service periods.

Continued use of the Services after the changes take effect constitutes acceptance. Changes do not retroactively affect credits already earned for previous periods.

10. Precedence

In case of conflict between this SLA and Special Conditions for a Service, the Special Conditions prevail for that Service.

In case of conflict with the General Terms, the SLA is interpreted complementarily; liability limitations and other general clauses of the General Terms remain applicable.

Appendix C – “Notice & Action” Procedure (Infringements of Rights and Personality)

1. Purpose and Scope

This Appendix describes the notification and action procedure implemented by HIDORA to handle, diligently and proportionately, allegations of third-party rights infringements committed through the Services.

It applies particularly to violations of personality rights (including image, voice, and sensitive data), defamation, copyright and trademark infringements, trade secret breaches, and, more generally, content clearly unlawful under Swiss law.

2. Guiding Principles

HIDORA acts as a hosting provider and intervenes without prejudging the merits of a dispute when the situation requires, based on credible information.

Intervention aims to prevent serious harm or to comply with a legal obligation or injunction.

HIDORA seeks a balance between freedom of expression, protection of personality, and intellectual property rights, respecting the principle of proportionality.

3. Valid Notification

A notification is considered valid when it clearly and completely includes: (a) precise identification of the disputed content or resource (URL, instance ID, relevant timestamp); (b) description of the allegedly infringed rights and the legal basis invoked; (c) relevant facts and, if possible, supporting evidence (screenshots, hash, header excerpts, WHOIS, etc.); (d) the requester’s contact details (name, role, address, email, phone) and, if applicable, proof of authority to represent; (e) a good faith statement certifying the accuracy of the information and the existence of a legally protected right or interest.

Notifications must be sent to legal@hidora.io or via the designated form/portal.

4. Acknowledgment and Assessment

HIDORA promptly acknowledges receipt, logs the notification, and performs a preliminary plausibility assessment, supplemented, if necessary, by requests for additional information from the requester.

If the notification is incomplete, HIDORA asks the requester to complete it within a reasonable timeframe. If not completed, the request may be closed without action, without prejudice to submitting a properly completed notification later.

5. Provisional Measures

When the alleged infringement appears manifest, or when an injunction from a competent authority is communicated, HIDORA may implement, temporarily and proportionately, one or more of the following measures: (i) targeted removal or blocking of content; (ii) limited suspension of a service, Account, or feature; (iii) access filtering or restriction by IP range, region, or protocol; (iv) request corrective action from the Client within a set timeframe.

HIDORA notifies the affected Client when legally permissible and compatible with security, inviting them to provide observations.

6. Counter-Notification and Restoration

The Client may contest the measures taken by sending the Provider, within the time limit specified in the notification of such measures, a reasoned counter-notification, together with all relevant supporting documents (e.g. authorisations, licences, statutory exceptions, the accuracy of the facts alleged, or a ground for justification within the meaning of Art. 31 FADP, in particular an overriding private or public interest).

In the event of a persisting dispute on questions of law or fact, HIDORA may invite the parties to refer the matter to the competent authority; HIDORA shall comply with any enforceable decision or injunction.

7. Evidence Retention and Cooperation

HIDORA may retain, for as long as necessary, the technical logs, metadata and other items strictly required for evidentiary, security and compliance purposes. Except for such items, HIDORA shall not retain any Client data, including in particular any content hosted or processed on behalf of the Client.

Upon a legally valid request, HIDORA shall cooperate with the competent authorities in connection with investigations or proceedings, to the extent permitted by applicable law and consistent with the security of the Environment.

Requests for access or disclosure must be sufficiently specific and duly grounded in law..

8. Repeated Violations and Graduated Measures

In case of repeated or particularly serious violations, HIDORA may apply graduated measures ranging from warning to temporary suspension or even termination of the Service in accordance with the General Terms.

HIDORA may also impose remediation, training, or targeted audit obligations when relevant to prevent recurrence.

9. Abuse of Procedure

Notifications that are manifestly unfounded, abusive, or made in bad faith may be rejected.

HIDORA reserves the right to request guarantees or charge reasonable costs for analysis and handling when the burden clearly exceeds what can be expected of a diligent host, without prejudice to possible liability actions against the author of an abusive notification.

10. Transparency and Updates

HIDORA may publish aggregated and anonymized information on the volume and type of notifications handled (transparency report), subject to confidentiality and security requirements.

This Appendix may be updated for legal, technical, or operational reasons. Updates are published and, where applicable, notified to the Client. Continued use of the Services constitutes acceptance.

11. Governing Law

The procedure described above is governed by Swiss law. This is without prejudice to remedies available before competent authorities or courts under the forum designated in the Contract.

Appendix D – Data Processing Agreement (DPA – Subcontracting)

1. Purpose, Parties, and Duration

This Appendix governs, under the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (revised FADP) and, where applicable, the GDPR, the processing of Personal Data carried out by HIDORA (“Processor”) on behalf of the Client (“Controller”) in connection with the provision of the Services.

It applies for the duration of the Contract and until the obligations of data return or deletion described below have been fulfilled.

2. Categories of Data, Data Subjects, and Purposes

Unless otherwise stipulated in Special Conditions, processing may involve identification and contact data, technical identifiers, logs and metadata, application content that the Client uploads to the Services, as well as, depending on the Client’s use, data relating to its own end customers, employees, service providers, and prospects.

Sensitive Data. The Client is informed that HIDORA’s Services are not specifically intended for the processing of particularly sensitive data within the meaning of the FADP or, where applicable, special categories of data within the meaning of the GDPR (e.g., health data, biometric or genetic data, political or religious opinions, data relating to proceedings or sanctions). If, according to its own practices, the Client nevertheless decides to process such data using the Services, it is responsible for ensuring the lawfulness of such processing, informing the data subjects, and implementing appropriate technical and organizational measures. HIDORA processes such data under the same security conditions as other Personal Data, but cannot be held liable for the absence of specific measures not contractually agreed.

The purposes cover hosting, storage, backup, monitoring, assistance and maintenance, billing, security, continuity, and improvement of the Services, strictly to the extent necessary for the performance of the Contract.

3. Roles, Instructions, and Compliance

The Client determines the essential purposes and means of processing and remains solely responsible for the lawfulness of processing conducted via the Services.

HIDORA acts only on documented instructions from the Client, including for transfers to third countries, except in case of mandatory legal obligations; in such cases, HIDORA informs the Client prior to processing, as permitted by applicable law.

The Client commits to issuing only instructions compliant with applicable law and to promptly inform HIDORA of any changes potentially affecting compliance.

4. Confidentiality and Authorized Personnel

HIDORA ensures that persons authorized to process Personal Data are bound by confidentiality obligations and receive appropriate training.

Access rights are granted based on a need-to-know principle and are periodically reviewed. All access is logged proportionally to the risks.

5. Technical and Organizational Measures (TOMs)

HIDORA implements appropriate technical and organizational measures according to the risk to ensure an adequate level of security.

Measures include information security governance, identity and access management (MFA when applicable, role separation, logging), network protection (segmentation, filtering, monitoring), data protection (encryption at rest and in transit where relevant, key lifecycle management), vulnerability and change management (inventory, patching, reviews), backup and periodic restoration tests, continuity and disaster recovery (documented plans, exercises), endpoint and server management (hardening, updates), and operational hygiene (procedures, reviews, awareness).

HIDORA makes an up-to-date description of its TOMs available upon reasonable request.

6. Subsequent Processors

HIDORA may engage Subprocessors to perform all or part of the processing.

HIDORA imposes equivalent data protection obligations on these Subprocessors and remains liable to the Client for their acts and omissions.

HIDORA maintains a list of relevant Subprocessors and notifies the Client of any material changes with reasonable notice. The Client may object for serious data protection reasons; the Parties will seek a reasonable commercial solution in good faith. If unsuccessful, the Client may terminate the relevant Service part without penalty from the effective date of the change.

7. Location and International Transfers

Hosting is conducted in Switzerland, unless otherwise agreed.

Where ancillary processing involves transfer to a country without an applicable adequacy decision, HIDORA implements a recognized mechanism (e.g., EU standard contractual clauses 2021 including Swiss addendum, or equivalent instruments) and, if applicable, supplementary measures per competent authority recommendations.

HIDORA will review in good faith any Client request for additional information regarding transfer risk assessment.

8. Assistance to the Controller and Data Subject Rights

HIDORA reasonably assists the Client, within its technical and organizational capabilities, to respond to data subject rights requests, conduct impact assessments, and notify authorities or data subjects when required.

HIDORA forwards to the Client any request received directly from a data subject without responding, unless instructed otherwise or legally required.

9. Data Breaches and Incident Management

HIDORA notifies the Client without undue delay, and at the latest within 24 hours, after becoming aware of an Incident affecting Personal Data processed on behalf of the Client.

The notification contains the information available at that stage and is supplemented as further information becomes available, including the nature of the Incident, the approximate categories and volumes of data and data subjects concerned, the likely consequences, the measures taken or proposed to remedy the Incident and mitigate its effects, and the relevant contact points.

The Client remains responsible for the legal assessment of the Incident and for notifications to the competent authorities or data subjects, in accordance with applicable law, in particular Art. 24 FADP and, where the GDPR applies, Art. 33 GDPR, which requires notification to the competent supervisory authority within a maximum of 72 hours after becoming aware of it. HIDORA shall not make any external notification or communication without the Client’s prior written instruction, unless otherwise required by mandatory law.

HIDORA documents every Incident, including the related facts, its effects and the corrective measures taken, in order to demonstrate compliance with legal data protection obligations.

10. Processor Assistance

HIDORA assists the Client, to the extent reasonably possible given the nature of processing and information available, to comply with data security obligations, data protection impact assessments, and prior consultations with supervisory authorities.

HIDORA provides necessary information to the Client to demonstrate compliance under this Agreement and allows reasonable audits, in accordance with the General Terms.

Any assistance exceeding minimal legal obligations may be subject to additional remuneration at the applicable hourly rate.

11. Data Return and Deletion

Upon Contract expiration or termination, HIDORA shall, per the Client’s written instructions, either return or securely delete all Personal Data processed on behalf of the Client, except where legal obligations require retention.

Deletion is carried out securely according to current technical standards, ensuring data cannot be reconstructed. HIDORA confirms completion in writing.

Absent specific Client instructions within thirty (30) days after Contract end, HIDORA is authorized to delete data; deletion occurs no later than thirty (30) days thereafter (except for legal retention obligations). Upon prior Client request, return in a reasonable standard format may be arranged; fees may apply.

12. International Data Transfers

Hosting is in Switzerland.

Ancillary processing (e.g., anti-DDoS, monitoring, support, backups) may involve Subprocessors. All transfers outside Switzerland/EU/EEA rely on a recognized mechanism (e.g., EU standard contractual clauses with Swiss addendum or adequacy decision) with appropriate supplementary measures.

HIDORA ensures all involved Subprocessors provide protection equivalent to Swiss and EU law.

13. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

This Agreement is governed by Swiss law, excluding its conflict-of-law rules and any international conventions on the sale of goods.

Any dispute regarding validity, interpretation, or performance of this Agreement falls under the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts at HIDORA SA’s registered office, subject to mandatory legal remedies.

Appendix E – Confidentiality (NDA Framework)

1. Purpose and Scope

This Appendix governs confidentiality for information other than Personal Data (which remains subject to Appendix D – Data Processing Agreement). It applies to all confidential information exchanged between the Parties in connection with the Contract, including pre-contractual and immediate post-contractual exchanges.

2. Definitions

Confidential Information means any non-public information, in any form (written, oral, visual, code, configurations, diagrams, metrics, logs, know-how, business plans, pricing), marked or reasonably identifiable as confidential, disclosed by one Party (the “Discloser”) to the other (the “Recipient”).

Information is not considered confidential if it: becomes public without fault of the Recipient; is received legitimately from a third party not bound to confidentiality; is independently developed; or was already known to the Recipient without a confidentiality obligation.

3. Permitted Use

The Recipient may use Confidential Information only to perform the Contract and must refrain from any other direct or indirect exploitation. Any copy or extraction must remain strictly necessary for this purpose.

4. Restricted Access

The Recipient limits access to only those who need to know (personnel, agents, subcontractors, advisors – collectively “Authorized Persons”), who are bound by equivalent confidentiality obligations. The Recipient remains responsible for the actions of these persons.

5. Protective Measures

The Recipient implements appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information, at least equivalent to those applied to its own sensitive information, in line with industry best practices. Logs, metrics, and technical records may be retained for proof and security purposes per the Contract.

6. Mandatory Disclosures

If disclosure is required by law, injunction, or competent authority, the Recipient may disclose only the strictly necessary portion, after prior notice to the Discloser (if legally permitted) to allow protective measures (e.g., seals, closed sessions, protective orders).

7. Confidentiality Incidents

The Recipient promptly informs the Discloser of any unauthorized access to Confidential Information known to it and cooperates in good faith to mitigate its effects. If the incident involves Personal Data, the obligations and timelines of Appendix D apply.

8. Return and Destruction

Upon the Discloser’s request or at the end of the Contract, the Recipient returns or destroys the Confidential Information (including copies, notes, derivatives), subject to: standard technical backups and retention; legal retention obligations; and items kept for proof, security, and compliance purposes.

The Recipient confirms destruction upon reasonable requests.

9. Residual Knowledge

General skills, ideas, or know-how retained in memory alone by the Recipient’s personnel are not restricted, provided no Confidential Information is disclosed and intellectual property rights are not violated.

10. Duration

Unless a stricter NDA is in place, the obligations of this Appendix survive indefinitely as long as the information remains non-public; trade secrets remain protected without limitation.

11. Precedence and Interaction

1. A project-specific NDA prevails over this Appendix for that project or subject matter.
2. This Appendix E prevails over the General Terms regarding confidentiality of information other than Personal Data (which falls under Appendix D).

12. Governing Law

This Appendix is governed by Swiss law; the exclusive forum is Geneva, in accordance with the “Governing Law and Jurisdiction” article of the Contract.
