"Junk email" (SPAM,

Our servers and our hosted

of junk email, nor will they be listed in any
junk email message. The use of our servers to
send or relay junk email is prohibited.
We define "junk email" to
be a mass unsolicited message in any medium.

of all services without refund. Fines and legal
action may be imposed. Any customer who is repeatedly
flamed/mail-bombed or attracts such behavior
will be asked to leave.

and may not be used to distribute unsolicited
email. All users on a list must have personally
subscribed to that list.
Subhosting
Our services are provided
for end users only. No subhosting or resale of
any services, for fee or for free, is permitted
without the express consent of us.
Resource usage
We do meter or
limit site traffic (bandwidth) according to the Web Hosting Product for your account. Bandwidth is
not billed, but is drawn from a common pool shared
by all accounts. If your website exceeds it's bandwidth allocation for the current month your account will be temporarily suspended. Please contact us, so we can rectify the situation, or adjust your account to allow for increased site traffic. Accounts using more than 10GB
per month may be subject to certain restrictions.
CGI, FreeCGI, SSI, PHP,
database services, and other CPU-intensive features
utilize server CPU-time which is drawn from a
common pool shared by all users on a particular
system. Any site which monopolizes the CPU, causes
disruption of service, or negatively impacts
server performance will not be allowed. We reserve
the right to immediately terminate any harmful
CGI process.
Email accounts may not
be used for permanent storage. Read mail (left
on the server) is subject to removal after 30
days.
Any account which, due
to extraordinary resource utilization, negatively
impacts other customers, will be required to
reduce resource utilization, or move to a dedicated
server environment.
