Obligations that come with hosting for others.
WHAT YOU HOLD
Your clients' business data, their customers' personal data, their email, and their credentials.
That is a substantial responsibility and most resellers do not think about it explicitly.
WHAT THIS MEANS PRACTICALLY
Your own account security protects every client at once Access should be limited to people who need it Client credentials must be stored securely, not in a spreadsheet Exported backups must not sit in web-reachable folders
THE POSITION YOU ARE IN
When a client holds customer personal data, and you host it, you are processing that data on their behalf.
That carries obligations in most frameworks.
WHAT TO PUT IN YOUR TERMS
What you do with client data How long you retain backups after an account ends That you will not access their data except as needed to provide the service
WHEN A CLIENT ASKS
Some clients, particularly larger ones, will ask about your data handling. Being able to answer clearly is a competitive advantage.
