  • In order to assist in resolving security incidents, we reserve the right to release your name to other system administrators. We will also fully cooperate with law enforcement officials in investigating suspected violations


5. System Resources


  • We will allocate system resources to provide the best service possible. As part of resource allocation, we may limit, restrict or prioritize access to system resources, including CPU time, memory, disk space, session length, and the number of sessions.
  • Additionally, we may institute services and fees for those who are interested in accessing system resources above and beyond acceptable usage.
  • System abuse is defined as any use of our resources that disrupts the normal use of system or Internet services for others. Examples of abuse include, but are not limited to, attempting to disrupt the sessions of other Internet users, consuming excessive amounts of time, memory, disk space, or bandwidth or otherwise adversely affecting the performance of our servers or networks.
  • We may log instances of abuse of system resources, including those outlined above, and take action as appropriate.
  • You may not run programs that provide network services from your account. Examples of prohibited programs include, but are not limited to, mail, http and irc servers, or multi-user interactive forums.
  • You may only make use of our system resources while logged in.


6. Acceptable Use


  • Acceptable use is defined as the normal activities associated with the use of the Internet, including use of our systems and network facilities for accessing the www, irc, usenet news, e-mail, and other Internet features. Depending on the account type, this may include a moderate amount of file storage on our servers for your own web page and file access area (ftp).


7. Prohibited Activities


Activities specifically prohibited by our administration include, but are not limited to, the following:
  • Background and/or server-type applications. Applications including irc bots, http servers, muds, and any other process that continues execution on the system upon user logout.
  • Long-term storage of data. Long-term storage of data is referred to as the storage of files that are not used regularly in an account for an extended period of time. This specifically includes, but is not limited to, programs such as shareware programs that you download for purposes of transferring data to your home computer. These programs must be removed at such time as they are successfully transferred to your system.
  • Flooding or abuse of other users. Flooding is prohibited at our site. Flooding takes place in numerous ways, including icmp flooding, mail bombing (sending large amounts of e-mail repeatedly to a person for purposes of harassment), and mass mailings to multiple addressees, msg/ctcp flooding on irc.
  • Attempts to compromise system and/or network security. Programs such as packet sniffers, password crack programs, and similar utilities found to be running from a user's account are prohibited. This also includes attempts to hack into other systems.
  • Sharing of accounts. Sharing of your account with another party for purposes of avoiding payment for a second account is strictly prohibited.
  • Attempts to bypass resource usage limitations. In order to provide fair service to all our users, we have implemented certain resource limitations including disk quotas on the servers and idle time-outs on dial-ups. Attempts to bypass disk usage quotas by any means may result in immediate loss of system privileges. Attempts to bypass the idle time-outs are also prohibited.
  • Supporting multiple users for a business through an individual account. The regular dial-up accounts (host links) are designed for individual home or business use and not for the level of service required to support multiple users in a business. Therefore, supporting multiple users in a business with an individual account is prohibited. If multiple accesses from a business is desired, please contact our sales department.
  • Excessive use of system resources. For systems, this is defined as the continued use of programs or commands which take a large amount of system resources, such as processor time, network bandwidth, and/or drive space on the host system. For dial-up applications, this primarily prohibits the continued use of a dial-up port to simulate a dedicated connection for the user's system. Dial-up accounts are designed to provide on-demand access, not a dedicated connection. If a dedicated connection is desired, please contact our sales department.

    • E-mail abuse. E-mail abuse typically includes (i) transferring messages to unsolicited individuals, (ii) sending harassing and/or threatening messages to other users, or (iii) omitting an e-mail address to make the e-mail appear to be sent from another user.
    • Usenet news abuse. As in e-mail abuse, this includes forging an e-mail address, harassment/threats, posting the same message to multiple newsgroups (spamming), as well as posting information in groups where it is not relevant and unwanted.
    • Pyramid/money-making schemes. Activities such as the transfer of information or solicitation of persons via the Internet in an attempt to extort money or other valuables, or the use of pyramid/chain letters are all prohibited.
    • Pirated software. Pirated software is the illegal exchange of software via the Internet for purposes of avoiding purchase of software by the individuals involved. This includes most commercial applications such as adobe photoshop, illustrator, etc. Such activities are prohibited by federal law and are thus not allowed in any form. This prohibition also includes unauthorized copying of copyrighted material including digitization and distribution of photographs from magazines, books, or other copyrighted sources and copyrighted software. Exportation of software or technical information in violation of U.S. export control laws is strictly prohibited.


8. Abuse Of Service; Disclosure Of Customer Information

  • Our Company has no obligation to monitor the Service but may do so from time to time and may disclose information regarding your use of the Service to comply with applicable laws, including without limitation the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (18 U.S.C. 2701 et seq.), to comply with appropriate government requests, to operate our systems properly or to protect our Company or our customers.
  • Our Company will cooperate with law enforcement authorities in investigating suspected lawbreakers. We reserve the right to report to law enforcement any suspected illegal activity of which it becomes aware.
  • If our Company receives a complaint or otherwise becomes aware of any possible violation of this Agreement, it may, in its sole discretion, initiate an investigation. You agree to cooperate with any such investigation.
  • You will be liable for any damage to Our Company, Company owned equipment, Upline provider equipment or any system that is associated with the delivery of the Service as well as any damage to third parties, in the event you engage in any conduct that is commonly referred to as access violations (hacking/cracking), data theft, spamming, mass emailing, junk emailing, "mail bombing," "news-bombing," automated bulk mailing of messages, content or communications or any other prohibited activity listed in Section 9 above by use of the Service under this Agreement.

Otherwise, We exercise no control over the content of materials, including but not limited to email, chat sessions, Usenet news postings, web pages or other content produced by users/subscribers, accessed through the Internet, including via our provided network. Some materials may be defamatory, inaccurate, abusive, obscene, profane, sexually oriented, threatening, racially offensive, discriminatory, or illegal and may be offensive to certain groups of individuals. IF YOU ALLOW A CHILD UNDER 18 YEARS OF AGE TO ACCESS THE INTERNET THROUGH YOUR ACCOUNT, A PARENT OR LEGAL GUARDIAN MUST AUTHORIZE SUCH USE VERIFYING THAT THE PARENT OR LEGAL GUARDIAN UNDERSTANDS THAT THE CHILD WILL HAVE ACCESS TO SUCH MATERIALS AND THAT OUR COMPANY ACCEPTS NO RESPONSIBILITY OF MONITORING AND AND/OR CONTROLLING SUCH ACCESS.
  • You agree not to publish any such offensive material described above, or to conduct business, activities or solicit activities prohibitive by law.


10. Children's Online Privacy Protection Act


Customers operating websites or online services directed to children or operators of websites or online services who have actual knowledge that the person from whom they seek information is a child, agree:
  • To post prominent links on their websites to a notice of how they collect, use, and/or disclose personal information from children;
