MP3's |
|
Mp3 files are only allowed if they are your
own work or if you have express, verifiable, permission to use
copyrighted works online. If your mp3\'s do not meet the above
conditions do not put them on our servers. |
|
Software "Backups" |
|
So-called "backups" of your software, such as
copies of MS Windows, MS Office, Oracle, etc. This is not
allowed on our servers. This is because we have no way of
knowing whether this is actually a backup of yours or an
attempt at hosting illegal software. |
|
Movies (mpeg, divx, etc) |
|
We do not allow copyrighted content on our
server. Whether this be a copy of the super bowl, a copy of
Ocean's 11, or music videos or anything else that is
copyrighted it is not allowed. By the way, all of these items
have been found on our servers. |
|
Adult Content |
|
Anything that is interpreted as adult content
is not allowed. |
|
Spam |
|
Spam is not allowed. For our purposes spam is
defined as bulk unsolicited email. |
|
Cgi-Based Message Boards. |
|
We do not allow cgi-based message boards. They
are inefficient and can quickly grow out of control causing
network problems. |
|
This is by no means a complete Terms of
Service. |
|
This is by no means a complete Terms of
Service. However, the 6 issues above are by far the most
violated. Violation of any of these issues constitutes
deletion of the domain causing these problems. Some of our
older customers may remember that we use to send warnings when
illegal content was found. This is not possible anymore. Here
is our new warning schedule. |
|
Warning Schedule |
|
First Warning: When you upload illegal content you (or your
clients) are knowingly violating the terms of service.
Therefore there is no need for a first warning.
Second Warning: There is no second warning,
the domain is deleted. You may recreate the domain, however if
illegal content is found on this domain again the domain will
be blocked from our servers.
If we find content that is questionable and
may or may not violate the terms of service we will contact
you. An example of a situation like this is a band hosting
their own music on our servers. However, you can avoid this
step if you notify us. If you are a band or if you are
planning to upload a large amount of files that is
questionable please notify us before you upload so we are
aware of the situation. This will keep everyone happy. |
