:: Hosting due diligence

If you offer a hosting or sub-hosting service to your clients there is a definite need to consider your risk profile given the effect of Chapter 11 of the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act - Limitation of Liability of Service Providers.

We offer a due diligence package designed to ensure that your hosting or sub-hosting business has taken all the steps prescribed by Chapter 11 and is equipped with the necessary contractual protections. We will also provide you with the tools and expertise to deal with Take Down Notices and compliance with any applicable Code of Conduct.

You should note that, as set out in the ECT Act, failure to take these steps may lead to your business becoming liable for the content which it is hosting.
