As a standard Reseller Hosting company, Cpwebhosting has its policies for taking regular backups. We do take daily backups of all server files. Our resellers have thir own backup policies; they can login into their account and can take backups from their Control panel.

For backups, it is always advisable to the clients to have their own backups also for disaster recovery purposes; although we do take backups daily for clients are not charged.
