Goals
DEDICATED HOSTING goals are to protect system resources, preserve the privacy and security of DEDICATED HOSTING and our customers, and maximize the utility of the Internet, while recognising our position in the Internet community as a whole.
Interpretation
The provisions of this Policy are intended as guidelines and are not meant to be exhaustive. Generally, conduct that violates law, regulation, or the accepted norms of the Internet community, whether or not expressly mentioned in this Policy, is prohibited. DEDICATED HOSTING reserves the right at all times to prohibit activities that damage its commercial reputation and goodwill.
Security
Any "denial of service" attack, any attempt to breach authentication or security measures, or any unauthorised attempt to gain access to any other account, host or network is prohibited, and will result in immediate service termination, which may be without notice.
E-mail
Using any DEDICATED HOSTING account or server to send duplicative, unsolicited e-mail messages (commercial or otherwise), or to collect the responses from unsolicited e-mail, is prohibited.
Conduct in connection with e-mail that is an obvious nuisance (such as "mail bombing") or that would be unlawful in other contexts (for example, threats, harassment, defamation, obscenity, or software piracy) is prohibited.
Adult Material
DEDICATED HOSTING does not allow material which may be viewed as offensive including pornographic material to be distributed from our servers.
Forgery of Identity
Falsifying addressing information or otherwise modifying headers to conceal the sender's or recipient's identity, for the purpose of circumventing this Policy, is prohibited. This provision is not intended to disallow the use of aliases or autoresponders for any legitimate purpose.
Copyright, Privacy and Intellectual Property
Using a DEDICATED HOSTING account to commit, aid or abet any violation of copyright or intellectual property law is prohibited.
This prohibition includes publishing a private e-mail message to third parties, by any means, without the express prior consent of the author.
Co-operation with other providers
Using DEDICATED HOSTING facilities to engage in activities that violate the Terms of Service of any network access provider is prohibited. For example, sending unsolicited commercial e-mail through DEDICATED HOSTING facilities to the subscribers of any Internet or online service provider that disallows unsolicited commercial e-mail is prohibited.
Consequences of Violation
Violation of this Policy by a DEDICATED HOSTING customer may result in temporary suspension or permanent termination of service, at DEDICATED HOSTING sole discretion.
DEDICATED HOSTING does not issue service credits for any outages incurred through service disablement resulting from Policy violations.

DEDICATED HOSTING reserves the right to add, delete, or modify any provision of this Policy at any time without notice.
