Server abuse policy -
If we determine that any site on our servers
is using too much of the server's resources and therefore abusing
the server, we have the right to suspend that domain without any
notice. It is then up to you to contact us and formulate a plan
to get that domain activated again. We are quick to suspend any
domain that abuses the server's resources due to the shared nature
of the server and the negative impact an abusing domain has on
other domains on the same server.
No mass email marketing or free
email businesses allowed!!
We do not allow mass email marketing
sites on our servers. It doesn't matter if it's opt_in email marketing.
We simply do not allow sites of that nature to be hosted on this
shared environment. Sites such as "safe lists" and "free email" are
also strictly prohibited. We reserve the right to shutdown such
sites, that we consider harmful to the server's performance.
