Business Terms

Last updated: 7/13/2025

Welcome to TopGameHost.com! We’re an open, independent review platform dedicated to game server hosting. We connect hosting companies and users to share honest feedback, help others make informed decisions, and support the gaming community and hosting industry.

When we say “our platform,” we mean our website at www.TopGameHost.com, including any sub-domains, sub-directories, or related content, data, text, reviews, comments, images, or other materials hosted or published there.

By claiming a business profile or using TopGameHost.com in any way, you agree to these Terms of Use for Businesses (the “Terms”). If you do not agree or cannot comply with these Terms, you must stop using the platform.

These Terms incorporate the following additional documents, which also apply to your use of TopGameHost:

  • Our Privacy Policy, explaining how we collect and handle your data.

  • Our Reviewer Guidelines, which outline standards for user content and reviews on our platform.


Joining and Using TopGameHost


Definitions

  • “You” or “your” means the business, company, organization, or other legal entity claiming or managing a business profile on TopGameHost.

  • “TopGameHost,” “we,” “our,” or “us” means TopGameHost.com, the company operating this independent platform.


Business Profiles

To appear on TopGameHost.com, you or an authorized representative must claim your business profile page. By claiming your profile, you gain access to tools allowing you to manage how your business is displayed, respond to user reviews, and engage with users on our platform.

Currently, it’s free for businesses to join and use the platform. We may offer new features or services in the future under separate terms or fees.


Your Business Account Responsibilities

When you create or manage a business profile on TopGameHost.com:

  • All information you provide, such as your business name, descriptions, logos, and contact details, must be true, accurate, current, and complete.

  • You are responsible for promptly updating your information if anything changes.

  • You control who in your organization has access to your business account and are fully responsible for their actions and compliance with these Terms.

  • You must keep your account credentials secure and confidential.

  • You agree to cooperate with any reasonable requests from TopGameHost for identity or business verification.


Ownership of Content

Your business retains ownership of your business name, logo, trademarks, and any other original content you create for your business profile (“Business IP”). You grant TopGameHost a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use your Business IP for the operation, promotion, and maintenance of the platform.

TopGameHost owns all rights to our platform, software, designs, layouts, and other intellectual property, except for User Content and your Business IP. User reviews belong to the users who write them; businesses do not own user reviews but may respond publicly using the tools we provide.

We may generate and own aggregated and de-identified data derived from business activity, reviews, and usage of the platform. We own all rights in such analytics and derived data.


Display and Use of Your Business Information

By claiming your business profile, you authorize TopGameHost to display your business name, logo, and other relevant information publicly on the platform.

You also allow TopGameHost to use your business name, logo, and examples of how your business appears on the platform in our marketing, promotional materials, online showcases, and case studies.

You may use TopGameHost branding and widgets only as permitted under our published guidelines or with our written permission. You must never suggest or imply that TopGameHost endorses or recommends your business, services, or products.


Reviews and Interactions on the Platform

You must never post fake reviews, encourage fake reviews, or attempt to manipulate the review process in any way.

User reviews may remain publicly visible on TopGameHost even if you delete your business profile, unless removed for violating our guidelines or at the author’s request.

User reviews reflect personal opinions, not statements of fact, and not the views of TopGameHost.


Consumer Invitations and Legal Compliance

If you contact customers to invite them to leave reviews on TopGameHost:

  • You are entirely responsible for complying with all privacy, data protection, marketing, and anti-spam laws applicable in your jurisdiction and your customers’ jurisdictions.

  • You may only use invitation methods supported by TopGameHost and as described in our documentation.
