The Provider will be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes a violation of this provision.

DISK SPACE
The Provider will monitor the customer’s disk usage and if it exceeds the usage agreed upon, the Provider shall have the right to take corrective actions. Such corrective actions may include assessment of additional charges or suspension of service.

ACCOUNT RENEWAL POLICY
The Provider does not renew accounts automatically. For the customer’s convenience, the Provider will send a renewal reminder to the contact email address on file for the corresponding hosting account. The customer is ultimately responsible for renewing the hosting account through one of the options given by the Provider.

Customers are not allowed to open a second hosting account for a domain that is already hosted through the Provider. If the customer wants to continue hosting the specified domain with the Provider, he/she needs to renew the account using one of the renewal options given by the Provider.

DOMAIN REGISTRATION POLICY
The Provider registers customer domains at the ICANN-accredited registrar Enom Inc. Therefore, all domains registered through the Provider are a subject of the Domain Registration Agreement of Enom Inc.

If you register domain(s) with the Provider, or transfer an existing domain registration, you must be acquainted with the Registration Agreement of Enom Inc.: http://www.enom.com/terms/agreement.asp

By registering/transferring a domain at the Provider, you confirm that you have read and you agree with the Registration Agreement of Enom Inc.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION POLICY
In case of ownership dispute, the Provider reserves the right to be the sole decision maker in settling the dispute. There are several guidelines, based on which the Provider will decide who is the rightful owner of the disputed hosting account or domain name:

By default, the Provider will grant ownership to the person who paid for the hosting account. If the purchase was made by credit card or PayPal, the holder of the respective credit card or PayPal account will be considered the owner. If the purchase was made by Western Union, bank transfer, or some other similar way, the respective sender of the funds covering the purchase of the account will be considered the owner. The Provider reserves the right to confirm the identity of the owner by contacting him/her by e-mail or telephone, in the same order of preference.
If the identity of the credit card holder or the sender of the funds as discussed above cannot be confirmed, the Provider will attempt to determine the owner in other ways, which include but are not limited to investigation of log files, investigation of the content hosted under the respective hosting account or domain name, and investigation of the sequence of annual payments for the disputed service.
In case of death or serious disability of the original owner that prevents him/her from continuing to manage the hosting account or the domain name purchased, the Provider may grant ownership to another person or organization, if enough proof is presented about the original owner’s condition, and based solely upon the investigation that the Provider will undertake about this issue.
The Provider will consider a court decision overruling in case of ownership dispute and will always comply with such a decision.
LOST LOGIN INFORMATION POLICY
In case the customer has lost the hosting account or domain name login information, he/she can request it to be sent to the contact e-mail address for the respective service.

If the contact e-mail address is outdated or incorrect, the customer should contact the Provider to request an investigation of the issue. In this case, the dispute resolution policy may be applied.

TRAFFIC GUIDELINES
Accounts that reach their monthly traffic limit may be a subject of automatic site suspension. Also, any accumulated traffic over the monthly limit will be charged additionally in accordance with the characteristics of the plan purchased. If a site is suspended under this provision, and the hosting account is in good standing, the site will be enabled on the first date of the next month, when the traffic counter is reset. In case of failure to cover fees incurred by traffic over-usage, the Provider reserves the right to take corrective actions such as full suspension of the hosting account. In case the Provider takes corrective actions under this provision, the customer shall not be entitled to a refund of any fees paid in advance.

CHAT ROOMS
Running and linking to IRC servers or IRC bots and clients such as Eggdrop, BitchX, ircii, etc., is strictly prohibited.

BACKGROUND RUNNING PROGRAMS
Programs running in the background are not allowed.

RESOURCE USAGE
To maintain the integrity of our shared hosting services, we have several special per-user resource limits in place. These include, but are not limited to:

Memory limitations: Customers using shared hosting services will be able to use only a certain portion of the total available memory on the server.
CPU usage limitations: Scripts that take too much real CPU time will be terminated.
Simultaneous script execution limitations: Customers will be able to run only a certain amount of CGI scripts simultaneously. Whenever this limitation is triggered, execution of subsequent CGI script requests via the web will produce an error message.
MySQL disk usage limitations: In cases, in which the integrity of the MySQL service is endangered, the MySQL disk usage of customer accounts may be limited. No limits will be applied to accounts with MySQL disk usage below 3GB.
Number of inodes limitation: The total number of files and folders on a single hosting account should not exceed 500,000.
MySQL connections limit: Each MySQL user cannot exceed a certain number of connections to the MySQL server.
The Provider reserves the right to alter the above limitations and to place additional limits without prior notice if an account endangers the stability or the performance of the hosting server due to intensive resource usage. The additional limits may include, but are not limited to MySQL, memory and CPU usage limitations, and stopping access to directories.

Each hosting account on the Provider servers is meant to be used for one domain, as well as a number of parked domains, according to the hosting plan. Parked domains are full aliases of the main domain – they display the same site content and share the same mailboxes. Pointing parked domains to subfolders or subdomains on the account through .htaccess files or other means is not allowed.

PROXY SOFTWARE AND REDIRECTION SERVICES
We do not allow running of proxy software on our servers. Sites offering shortening URL services are not allowed as well.

DISTRIBUTION AND/OR TRANSMISSION OF OBSCENE OR INDECENT SPEECH OR MATERIALS
Violation of indecency and obscenity laws can result in criminal penalties.

ACCOUNT CONTENT OWNERSHIP
The content of the hosting account is considered to be a property of the customer. The customer retains ownership on all data that he/she uploads to the hosting account. The Provider will not use the data on the hosting account for any other purpose than for the provision of the hosting service itself. The Provider will not provide hosting account data to any third parties, unless this is required by law, or the customer has agreed upon this.

As an owner of the hosting account data, the customer is solely responsible for the content of the account, including its security. The Provider reserves its right to block access to any content that may be threatening the security of the hosting service, the data of other customers on the servers, or the Provider’s reputation. The Provider reserves its right to judge as to what content is considered threatening and is a subject of this rule.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS
Materials, accessible to the customer through the Provider’s services, may be subject to protection under the United States or other copyright laws, or laws protecting trademarks, trade secrets or proprietary information. Except when exclusively permitted by the owner of such rights, the customer may not use the Provider’s services in a manner that would infringe, violate, dilute, or misappropriate any such rights, with respect to any material, which the customer accesses or receives through the Provider’s network. If the customer uses a domain name in connection with the Provider’s service, he/she may not use that domain name in violation of any third party trademark, service mark, or similar rights.

When using the Provider’s services, the customer retains all intellectual property rights on their own content, trademarks, and any other data related to the site/account content. The Provider will use this content/data/trademarks only for the provision of the hosting service, unless other actions are required by law.

NETWORK SECURITY
Customers may not use the Provider’s network in an attempt to circumvent user authentication or security of any host, network, or account. This includes but is not limited to: accessing data not intended for the customer, logging into a server or account the customer is not exclusively authorized to access, password cracking, probing the security of other networks in search of weaknesses, or violation of any other organization’s security policy. Customers may not attempt to interfere or deny service to any user, host or network. This includes, but is not limited to: flooding, mail bombing or other deliberate attempts to overload or crash a host or network. The Provider will fully cooperate with investigations of violations of systems or network security. This also includes cooperating with law enforcement authorities in the investigation of suspected criminal violations. Users who violate system or network security may incur criminal or civil liability.

DEFAMATION
The customer may not host material that is:

threatening or obscene;
offensive to any person or group. This includes, but is not limited to: prejudice, racism, intolerance, hatred, and harassment; expressions that are by nature libelous, defamatory, and offensive to or disrespectful of ethnic, racial, religious, or other groups;
harmful to minors;
likely to cause damage to reputation of third parties.
Note: Defamatory speech distributed over the Internet can result in civil liability for the defamer.

SPAM OR UNSOLICITED E-MAIL
The customer may not use the Provider’s network, the Provider’s equipment, or the Provider’s e-mail service in connection with the transmission of spam, flames, mail bombs, or similar unsolicited e-mail messages. The customer’s domain may not be referenced as originator, intermediary or reply-to address in any of the above. This prohibition fully extends to sending of unsolicited mailings from another service that in any way mentions your domain name or implicates the use of the Provider’s network, the Provider’s equipment, or the Provider’s e-mail services. A message is considered unsolicited if it is posted in violation of a newsgroup charter, or if it is sent to a recipient without his/her prior consent. For purposes of this provision, merely making one’s e-mail address accessible to the public will not constitute a request or invitation to receive messages.

In case sufficient evidence is presented about any violation of this provision, the Provider reserves the right to disable the customer’s account without prior notice. For the purpose of acquiring such evidence, the Provider will use various techniques, including but not limited to: closely inspecting all spam reports sent to the Provider’s anti-abuse department, searching the logs of the Provider’s mail servers, and scanning the server space for popular “spamming” applications. The Provider will be the sole arbiter as to what would be considered sufficient evidence.

ABUSE
Any attempt to undermine, slander, libel, threaten or cause harm to the Provider’s customers, employees and property, or to the company directly, is grounds for immediate termination without refund. In addition, any such attempts will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

INDEMNIFICATION
Customer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless, the Provider, its subsidiaries and other affiliated companies, its officers, directors, employees and agents from and against all losses, expenses, damages and costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, resulting from any violation of these Terms of Use.

DISCLAIMER
The Provider, at its sole discretion, may change these terms and conditions at any time. By using the Provider’s services, the user agrees that the Provider may: (1) revise these terms and conditions; and (2) change the services provided. Any such revision or change will be binding and effective immediately on posting of the revised terms or change to the service(s) on the Provider’s web site, or on notification to the customer by e-mail. The customer agrees to periodically review the Provider’s web site, including these terms, to get informed of any such revisions. If the customer does not agree with any revision, he/she may terminate the services at any time by notifying the Provider by e-mail. Notice of the customer’s termination will be effective on receipt and processing by the Provider. The customer agrees that, by continuing to use the Provider’s services following notice of any revision to this Agreement or change in service(s), he/she abides by any such revisions or changes.

REFUSAL OF SERVICE
The Provider reserves the right to refuse hosting for insecure applications that could be, for instance, utilized by an attacker to gain unauthorized access to the server and/or execute applications with the privileges of the customer that has uploaded the insecure application in question. Customers are responsible for keeping their applications up-to-date, checking for security issues with the application vendor, and updating to the latest secure version that is available. In the event that an insecure application is installed on the hosting account of the customer, the Provider reserves the right to disable access to it, or, if deemed necessary, to the hosting account in its entirety. This will be with the exclusive purpose of preventing damage to the customer and to the other customers hosted on the same server, and may be done with or (in case of emergency) without prior notice.

The Provider reserves the right to impose restrictions or fully suspend any of the services provided to customers, in case the operation of these services threatens the overall security and stability of the hosting system, and/or the proper operation of other customers’ accounts/services.

The Provider reserves the right at its sole discretion to refuse or cancel service. Violation of any of the Provider’s Terms could result in a warning, suspension, or account termination. Submitting fake personal information can also be grounds for suspension or termination.
