Responsibility for Hosting Sample Clauses
The Responsibility for Hosting clause defines which party is accountable for providing and managing the physical or virtual environment where a service, event, or digital platform is operated. Typically, this clause specifies whether the service provider or the client will supply the necessary infrastructure, such as servers, cloud resources, or physical venues, and outlines any related obligations like maintenance, security, or technical support.
