web-hostings provides web
hosting to a large client base. All accounts on our servers are subject to
these terms of conditions, including but not limited.
We reserve the right to cancel without notice any account that violates
our terms of service, with web-hostings as the sole arbiter in deciding
what constitutes violation.By
proceeding to the next step in the order process, you acknowledge that you
have read, understand, and agree to fully abide by our terms of service
listed below.
1. Server Use
All services provided by web-hostings
may be used for lawful purposes only. Any violations of laws that apply to
web-hostings, or any jurisdiction that applies to you or your site is
strictly prohibited. This includes but is not limited to copyrighted
material, intellectual property and threatening material.
Sites that promote illegal activity or present content that is damaging to
web-hostings are also strictly prohibited.
Illegal activity such as hacking and
cracking that originates from your account is also strictly prohibited.
2. Adult Content & Spamming

both adult content and spamming (the sending of mass unsolicited emails).

but not limited to explicit pictures, pornographic or indecent pictures
found in any account will result in instant termination without notice.

web-hostings’s network is strictly prohibited and will result in instant
termination without notice.
Formmail
scripts prior to Matt Wright’s formmail script version 1.9 or later are
banned as security holes in the script can result in them being used as
spamming tools.
3. High Resource Usage Policy / Script
Usage
Resources are defined as CPU usage,
memory usage and available system resources. When an account is found to
be manipulating resources, we may implement the following policy:
When an account is found to be
manipulating resources, web-hostings reserves the right to suspend,
terminate, or make appropriate changes to the account to prevent the
account from continually manipulating resources.
This policy is only used in extreme
cases to prevent misuse and is in effect to keep our servers fast and
stable at all times.
The following scripts and programs are
banned from our servers due to resource manipulation / server misuse:
- Flat file CGI based forums / message boards such as UBB, iKonboard and
UlimateBB
- IRC (Internet Relay Chat) scripts or bots
- Eggdrops
- Proxy Servers
- The Anonymizer
- Formmail scripts earlier than Matt Wright’s v1.92 script
- Spamming / hacking / cracking scripts
4. Payment Policies
All accounts are set-up on a pre-pay
basis. web-hostings reserves the right to change the prices of any of its
services at any time.
Payment is due every 30 days from the date on which the account will be
established, or every 365 days if the account is paid for yearly. Clients
will be automatically charged UNLESS a cancellation request has been sent
to billing@web-hostings.com, and web-hostings have confirmed your request.
Cancellation requests must be sent in 5 days before your next billing
date.
In situations where the card number is
declined, the card will be charged on the following day for 7 days. If the
card is declined in each of these situations, the account for which
payment is overdue will be suspended, and the user contacted to make
alternative payment arrangements. If payment is not made within 10 days of
the card failing, we reserve the right to terminate the account.
Clients agree that they are liable to
extra charges that their accounts incur, including but not limited to
extra bandwidth usage and extra diskspace usage.
Cancellation requests logged within 15
days of the account being set-up will have their full monies refunded.

web-hostings reserves the right to
terminate a client’s account at anytime without prior notification if the
account is in breach of the listed terms and conditions. No refund is
given in such a situation.
A client can choose to cancel their
account at any time. If within the first 15 days following the initial
order, a full refund will be issued. This is referred to as our 15 day
money back guarantee.
Cancellations out of the 15 day period
will not receive a refund. Please allow 5 business days for a refund to be
processed; please put in cancellation requests at least 5 days prior to
your next billing date.
