By using our Web hosting services, you agree to comply with our policies. You are expected to use the Internet with respect, courtesy, and responsibility, giving due regard to the rights of other Internet users. When customers place information on the Internet, they have the same liability as other authors for copyright infringement, defamation, and other harmful speech. Also, because the information they create is carried over our facilities and may reach a large number of people, a user’s postings to the Internet may harm our goodwill, business reputation, and operations. For these reasons, customers violate our policy when they, their affiliates, or subsidiaries engage in the prohibited activity described herein. We expect you to have a basic knowledge of how the Internet functions, the types of uses 
which are generally acceptable, and the types of uses which are to be avoided. Common sense is the best guide as to what is considered acceptable use. The following are examples of unacceptable uses: illegality in any form, including, but not limited to, activities such as unauthorized distribution or copying of copyrighted software or other copyrighted work, violation of U.S. export restrictions, harassment, fraud, drug dealing, and other illegal activities.

 

The provisions of this policy are intended as guidelines and are not meant to be exclusive. Generally, conduct that violates applicable laws, regulations, or the accepted norms of the Internet community, whether or not expressly mentioned 
in this policy, is expressly prohibited. HostGlobe reserves the right at all times to prohibit activities that damage its commercial reputation and goodwill.

 

Additionally, by utilizing our services, you agree to pay for all services rendered. This agreement will act in lieu of a signed contract for all credit card or other transactions. If you feel that you have been billed incorrectly, you must contact HostGlobe's billing department within 30 days of the billing error. Transactions or invoices dating more than 30 days old cannot be dismissed. 

 

HostGlobe servers may be used only for lawful purposes. Transmission, distribution, or storage of any material in violation of any applicable law or regulation is prohibited. This includes, without limitation, material protected by copyright, 
trademark, trade secret or other intellectual property right used without proper authorization, and material that is obscene, indecent, defamatory, constitutes an illegal threat, or violates export control laws.

HostGlobe will be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes a violation of our policies.

 

Violations of system or network security are expressly prohibited, and may result in criminal and/or civil liability. Examples include, but are not limited to, the following: 

(a) unauthorized access (often known as hacking), use, probe, or scan of a systems security or authentication measures, data, or traffic; 

(b) interference with service to any user, host, or network, including, without limitation, mail bombing, flooding, deliberate attempts to 
overload a system, and broadcast attacks; 

(c) forging of any TCP-IP packet header or any part of the header information in an email or a newsgroup posting. 

(d) other destructive activities. 

 

Customers have a responsibility to use the HostGlobe network responsibly. This includes respecting other HostGlobe customers. HostGlobe reserves the right to suspend or cancel service to customers who use the HostGlobe network in a way that adversely impacts other HostGlobe customers. This includes but is not limited to customers who attack or attempt to gain unauthorized access to servers and services of other HostGlobe customers or participating in behavior which results in actions which adversely affect the HostGlobe network or other customers’ access to the network.

 

Sending unsolicited mail messages, including, without limitation, commercial advertising and informational announcements, is explicitly prohibited. A user shall not use another site’s mail server to relay mail without the express permission of the site. Spamming is harmful because it can negatively impact consumer’s attitudes toward us, and can overload our equipment as well as disrupt service to subscribers. 

It is contrary to HostGlobe policy for customers to use our servers to effect or participate in any of the following activities:

1. To post to any Usenet or other newsgroup, forum, e-mail mailing list, or other similar group or list articles which are off-topic according to the charter or other owner-published FAQ or description of the group or list;

2. To send unsolicited mass e-mailings;

3. To engage in any of the foregoing activities using the service of another provider, but channeling such activities through a HostGlobe provided server, or using a HostGlobe provided server as a maildrop for responses;

4. To falsify user information provided to HostGlobe or to other users of the service in connection with use of a HostGlobe service; or

5. To attempt without authorization to enter into a secured computer system. 

 

When HostGlobe becomes aware of an alleged violation of its Acceptable Use Policy, HostGlobe will initiate an investigation. During its investigations, HostGlobe may restrict a customer’s access in order to prevent further possible unauthorized activity. Depending on the severity of the violation, HostGlobe may, at its sole discretion: 

(a) restrict, suspend, or terminate a customer’s account, 

(b) remove information that violates our policies, 

(c) implement screening software to block transmissions, 

(d) pursue any other civil remedies, 

and/or 

(e) take any other action we deem appropriate. 

Failure to cooperate with our corrective or preventive measures is a violation of our policy. If such violation is a criminal offense, HostGlobe will notify the appropriate law enforcement department of such violation.

HostGlobe does not issue service credits for any outages incurred through service disablement resulting from policy violations.

 

We cannot take any responsibility for the security of communications transmitted over our facilities. We will comply fully, however, with all applicable laws concerning the privacy of our clients’ on-line communications. In particular, we will not intentionally  monitor or disclose any private electronic mail messages sent or received by our clients unless required to do so by law. We may, however, monitor our service electronically to 
determine that our facilities are operating satisfactorily. Also, we may be required to disclose information transmitted through our facilities in order to comply with court orders, statutes, regulations, or governmental requests. Finally, we may disclose 
information transmitted over our facilities where necessary to protect us and our clients from harm, or where such disclosure is necessary to the proper operation of the system.
