CHAPTER
TWENTY - POLICY, GUIDELINES, & DISCLAIMER
EbuyMe
provides web hosting to many clients, and we have a responsibility
to protect each client and to provide the best services available.
The following guidelines were established to ensure these obligations
are met.
CONTENT:
All services provided by EbuyMe may be used for lawful purposes
only. Transmission, storage, or presentation of any information,
data or material in violation of any United States Federal, State
or City law is prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to:
copyrighted material, material we judge to be threatening or obscene,
or material protected by trade secret and other statute. The subscriber
agrees to indemnify and hold harmless EbuyMe and its employees
from any claims resulting from the use of the service which damages
the subscriber or any other party.
Pornography and sex-related merchandising is prohibited on all
EbuyMe servers. This includes sites that may infer sexual content,
or links to adult content elsewhere. EbuyMe will be the sole arbiter
in determining violations of this provision.
Also prohibited are sites that promote any illegal activity or
present content that may be damaging to EbuyMe servers or any
other server on the internet. Links to such materials are also
prohibited.
Examples of unacceptable content or links:
- Pirated software
- Hacker programs or archives
- Warez sites
EbuyMe will be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes a violation
of this provision.
Unlimited Traffic:
We are pleased to offer our clients unlimited Web page traffic.
To maintain the integrity of our service, the following restrictions
apply:
NOTE:
Since there seems to be so many questions about the statements
below. Here is the way we look at this. These rules are only
here for your own good... let's say you have a great site and
you are running a million hits a month and all is good... what
happens when a server hog gets on the server who is getting
30 million hits a month... inadvertently his site will keep
everyone else's from working... We will contact you if there
is a problem and we will resolve it together.
-
Multiple hosts resolving at an IP or domain name that we provide:
This means if you open a account with one website and you pointer
sites. We apply this rule if your pointer sites are high traffic....we
would call you, email you and ask you what can we do about it.
Unlimited Traffic is for one site not a domain with 5 others pointing
at it.
- Sites with banners, graphics or cgi's running from their
domain used on other domains:
When you employ services such as Link Exchange or a cgi host who
lets 1000's of others link to their site, it is important that
you require any sites you exchange ads with, display your ad on
their server. Not only will not abiding to this guideline cause
your site to load slow, depending on the resources that you are
absorbing you will inadvertently affect our other clients.
- Sites with archives or galleries (.gif, .jpg, exe, zip,
tar, etc.)
Meaning if your site has tons of downloads or pictures. NOTE:
You must be putting a serious drain on our system before we say
anything.
- Sites offering download files:
This is any site where 20% or more of their monthly traffic is
from file downloads.
- Sites using more than 20% of system resources:
EbuyMe will be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes a violation
of this provision.
Commercial Advertising - Email:
Spamming, or the sending of unsolicited email, from an Site Host
server or using an email address or domain that is maintained
on an EbuyMe machine as a reference is STRICTLY prohibited.
Accounts in violation of our spamming policy WILL BE DELETED
WITHOUT NOTICE. EbuyMe will be the sole arbiter as to what
constitutes a violation of this provision.
Chat Rooms:
We do not allow clients to install their own chat rooms. These
tend to be a large drain on system resources and we cannot allow
it as an account option.
Background Running Programs:
We may allow programs to run continually in the background. These
are considered on a case-by-case basis and an extra charge will
be incurred based on system resources used and operational maintenance
needed.
IRC:
We currently do not allow IRC or IRC bots to be operated on our
servers.
Server Abuse:
Any attempt to undermine or cause harm to a server, or customer,
of EbuyMe is strictly prohibited.
Refusal of Service:
We reserve the right to refuse, cancel, or suspend service at
our sole discretion.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY:
EbuyMe shall not be responsible for any claimed damages, including
incidental and consequential damages, which may arise from EbuyMe
servers going off-line or being unavailable for any reason whatsoever.
Furthermore, EbuyMe shall not be responsible for any claimed damages,
including incidental or consequential damages, resulting from
the corruption or deletion of any web site from one of EbuyMe
servers. All damages shall be limited to the immediate termination
of service.
