4. Service Description
4.1 Cloud GPU Services
Aqaba AI provides cloud-based GPU computing resources for AI model training, machine learning, and related computational tasks. Our Services include GPU instances, storage solutions, and supporting infrastructure.
Each GPU instance is exclusively allocated to a single user, providing dedicated access to the hardware resources specified in the instance configuration.
4.2 Service Availability
While we strive to provide uninterrupted Services, we do not guarantee that the Services will be available at all times. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate the Services temporarily for maintenance, upgrades, or other operational reasons.
4.3 Service Modifications
We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of our Services at any time. We will make reasonable efforts to notify you of significant changes to the Services.
5. Payment Terms
5.1 Credit System
Our Services operate on a prepaid credit system. You must purchase credits to use our GPU instances and other Services. Credits are non-refundable except as required by applicable law.
5.2 Pricing
Pricing for our Services is available on our website. We reserve the right to change our pricing at any time. Any price changes will be communicated to you and will apply to future credit purchases and Service usage.
5.3 Billing
You will be billed based on your usage of our Services, with costs deducted from your prepaid credits. When your credit balance reaches zero, your active GPU instances may be terminated unless you purchase additional credits.
5.4 Refunds
Refunds are generally not provided for purchased credits or used Services. In exceptional circumstances, refunds may be considered at the sole discretion of Aqaba AI.
6. Acceptable Use Policy
6.1 Compliance with Laws
You agree to use our Services in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. You are solely responsible for ensuring that your use of our Services does not violate any laws or regulations.

6.3 Resource Usage and Instance Management
Your GPU instances are fully dedicated to you and isolated from other users. Unlike shared services, we do not terminate instances due to idling or inactivity - you have complete control over the lifecycle of your instances. You're free to keep your instances running for as long as you have sufficient credits, regardless of usage patterns or activity levels.
You have full access to the computational resources you've purchased, and you may utilize them at any capacity level you choose. We do not impose restrictions on resource utilization intensity, as each instance is allocated exclusively to a single user, preventing any impact on other customers' experiences.
You are solely responsible for starting, stopping, and managing your instances. We will only terminate instances in extraordinary circumstances such as system maintenance, hardware failure, or violations of other terms specified in this agreement.
