1) GENERAL:

By using Webhostingwith.US. services, you agree to use the Internet in
accordance with the laws and the ethical rules established or to be set up in
the future. Our Terms and Conditions of Use policy is one of zero tolerance. We
reserve the right to immediately discontinue services without liability, refund
or continuance of any prepaid service fees. By using Webhostingwith.US services,
you constitute your approval of our policy.
2)
BILLING - GENERAL:

All accounts are set up on a pre-pay basis. All International clients must pay
by credit card, PayPal, money order, cashiers check or wire transfer. All
accounts under $50.00/mo must also be paid by credit card. Accounts over
$50.00/mo can be paid by check, money order or credit card. Customers with
accounts set up on a periodic credit card billing plan must keep credit card
information current. It is the customers' responsibility to inform
Webhostingwith.US on changes in credit card type, e-mail address or expiration
date to their credit card. Credit card accounts are billed once monthly,
quarterly or yearly, depending on your billing cycle. If your credit card is
declined you will have 14 days to make payment, after these 14 days, your
account will be placed on hold until services are paid for. All accounts paying
by check have 30 days to send in payment. If no payment has been received by the
Due Date, then accounts will be placed on hold until payment is received. There
is a $1.00 credit card resubmission fee if your credit card is declined for any
transaction. Webhostingwith.US charges a $25.00 return check fee on all returned
checks and a $25.00 charge per wire transfer received. All accounts issuing
chargebacks against Webhostingwith.US will be billed an additional $25.00 per
chargeback. For more information, please view our
Billing Policy.
NOTE: All accounts billed to a credit
card are automatically renewed unless canceled prior to the renewal date. This
applies to all monthly, quarterly and yearly accounts.
3)
BILLING TERMS:

After the initial thirty days of service, each customer is committed to the
remaining time on the service they purchased and no refunds will be given.
Webhostingwith.US does not require that you finish off each term and you are
free to close your account at anytime without any additional charges or fees.
However, Webhostingwith.US will not pro-rate any return for unused service. For
example, if you have an account that you are paying for monthly and you decide
to close it a few days after your last payment, you will not be issued any
refund, whether in full or pro-rated. By using Webhostingwith.US, you understand
and agree to this billing term. You also understand that while no refund will be
issued, you are always free to keep your account open for the full amount of
time you have paid for.
As a current or prior customer of Webhostingwith.US, you agree to allow
Webhostingwith.US to attempt settlement of any billing dispute for 30 days
before disputing with any third party, credit card company or bank. For more
information, please view our
Billing
Policy.
4)
CANCELLATIONS:

Almost all web hosting, VPS, E-commerce and Internet Access plans include a
30-day money back guarantee. If for any reason our services haven't exceeded
your standards, please let us know within the first 30 days of account
activation and we will refund the money paid for that first month of service
minus Setp Fees, Activation Fees and overage charges. Setp Fees and Activation
Fees are refundable only if the account order is canceled prior to activation.
For web hosting contracts of 3 months or longer, the full contract amount less
any set-up fees and overages will be refunded if Webhostingwith.US is notified
within the first 30 days following activation. No refund is available after the
30th day. Due to security concerns (such as fraudulent cancellations), all
account cancellations must be done through our cancellation form via your
Control Maestro Panel. E-mail requests and phone calls will not constitute
acceptance of any cancellation. Refunds will be made by company check or issued
back to your credit card within 30 days of receipt of cancellation.
5) CONTENT:

You will not in any way use html, java or perl code that will result unnecessary
traffic nor will you install any client side applications that will result in
excess traffic. The intent of Webhostingwith.US is to provide space to serve web
documents, not as an off-site storage area for electronic files. You will also
not misrepresent the site in such a way that will result in needless traffic.
Some examples of unacceptable content or links include: pirated software, hacker
programs or archives, Warez sites, Spamware, Copyrighted MP3s and IRC bots.
Webhostingwith.US does not support; (i) sexually explicit, obscene or
pornographic content (whether in text or graphics); (ii) speech or images that
are offensive, profane, hateful, threatening, harmful, defamatory, libelous,
harassing, discriminatory (whether based on race, ethnicity, creed, religion,
gender, sexual orientation, physical disability or otherwise) or that promote
any illegal activity; and/or (iii) graphic violence. We will terminate any
account that does not conform to these requirements. Webhostingwith.US reserves
the right to terminate any account, for any reason, without prior notice or
warning.
6) E-MAIL:

You will not send out advertising e-mail, unsolicited bulk e-mail (UBE) or Spam,
nor do anything that will result in excess mail traffic. You will not use your
E-mail account to receive large files or programs over 10 MBs in size.
Unsolicited advertising via e-mail or newsgroups is prohibited and will result
in immediate account termination without compensation. Spamming, including (but
not limited to) mass e-mailing, cross posting, or otherwise causing abuse to
others on the Internet is prohibited and will be grounds for account termination
without compensation. If you use the services of another provider to promote a
web site hosted by or through Webhostingwith.US, then the provisions of the
above Policy shall apply as if the unsolicited e-mail were sent through our
servers.
NOTE: Any accounts caught Spamming, or running Spam
scripts, will be charged a $100 clean-up fee.
7) ORDB.ORG AND SPAMCOP
USE/SPAM PREVENTION:

Webhostingwith.US uses two filters on all shared servers to help reduce the
amount of Spam our users receive. Webhostingwith.US has chosen ORDB.org, which
is the Open Relay Database, and www.spamcop.net. ORDB.org is a non-profit
organization which stores IP-addresses of verified open SMTP relays. These
relays are, or are likely to be, used as conduits for sending unsolicited bulk
email, also known as Spam. Spamcop will list any IPs that have been sending out
reported Spam. If the Spam stops, the IP is released from the database after 48
hours. By using Webhostingwith.US, you understand and approve of such filtering.
You understand that any person attempting to e-mail you from a server in the
Open Relay Database or Spamcop database will be returned to the sender. If you
do not want your service subject to such filtering, then you understand you are
free to host your site elsewhere. For more information on ORDB.org, please
click here. For more
information on Spamcop, please
click here.
NOTE: While the SpamCop filter is set
to "ON" by default, ANY customer may request to have it turned off for their
domain(s).
8)
ILLEGAL ACTIVITY:

Illegal activities, to include; unauthorized distribution or copying copyrighted
software, violation of US export restrictions, harassment, fraud, trafficking in
obscene material, and other illegal activities will be reported to all
regulatory, administrative and/or governmental authorities. Webhostingwith.US
reserves the right to report all such activities.
9) ACCESS:

Access to our servers is for the express purpose of setting up and managing your
web site and e-mail. You are not to use the access to compile or run programs
that do not directly relate to the web site. You will not view or attempt to
modify files that do not belong to you. It is a crime to access any information
in the non-public part of a computer regardless of damage or security of the
information. Any actions construed to be negligent or malicious attack is
strictly prohibited.
Under no circumstances may more than one person log in to any dial-up account at
any one time. Violators will be billed as separate accounts and will be subject
to immediate account termination without warning and without any refund of
unused services.
10)
RESOURCE USAGE:

Webhostingwith.US enforces a strict policy on resource use that all accounts
must abide by. In order to keep our servers running at optimal levels, any sites
running a process that requires more than 8Mb of memory, more than 30 CPU
seconds, or uses more than 10% of all available system resources at any time
will be required to move up to a dedicated solution or be hosted elsewhere. Web
sites requiring the following are also limited and may not even be allowed at
all:
- High CPU-use CGI Scripts - CGI script sharing with
domains not hosted by Webhostingwith.US is not permitted. Any CGI-scripts
deemed to be adversely affecting server performance or network integrity
will be shut down without prior notice. If your web site has been shut down
at another web host for high CGI resource use, you will certainly be shut
down here as well. We will not allow a user's web site to affect the other
web site owners on our servers.
- CGI-based Chat Rooms - Webhostingwith.US does not allow
customers to install their own CGI-based chat rooms. Chat rooms tend to
require significant system resources and therefore cannot be permitted as an
account option. Webhostingwith.US does offer Java-based chat for its
customers for an additional fee.
- CGI-based Forums - Webhostingwith.US does not allow
customers to install their own CGI-based Forums. YaBB and Ultimate Bulletin
Board Forums tend to require significant system resources and therefore
cannot be permitted. Webhostingwith.US recommends vBulletin or phpBB.
- Background Running Programs and Cron Jobs -
Webhostingwith.US may allow programs to run in the background. These
programs will be considered on an individual basis. Customers will not be
allowed to execute a cron more then once per hour with Webhostingwith.US. If
you wish to run background programs please contact us so that we can arrange
set-up.
- IRC - Webhostingwith.US does not allow IRC or IRC bots
to be operated on any of our servers.
- Webcams - Webhostingwith.US does not allow web-cams to
be refreshed more then once in a 5 minute period. If you require a refresh
rate quicker then 5 minutes, you will need to host your site on a
Virtual Dedicated Server.
- Hotlinking - Webhostingwith.US does not allow
hotlinking of any kind (whether hosted by Webhostingwith.US or hosted
elsewhere). This includes using your site to host images or content that is
being used in HTML e-mails sent in bulk. Linking your images from auction
sites like eBay is the only exception to this rule.
11) UNMETERED BANDWIDTH POLICY:

The purpose of the Webhostingwith.US Unmetered Bandwidth Policy is to assure
owners of standard operating web sites and small businesses that they will not
be surprise billed for bandwidth usage. It is one less thing someone will need
to worry about while hosting their web site at Webhostingwith.US. The
Webhostingwith.US Unmetered Bandwidth Policy does not cover certain web sites.
These include the following:
- Web Portals/Communities/Forums - Any sites that have members and/or
forums.
- Online Gaming - Includes online casinos and single/multiplayer online
games.
- Image Galleries - Includes eBay or other online auction image dumps.
- Downloads - Any site that prompts for a download or has large applets.
- Audio/Video - Any streaming content, web-cams or audio/video downloads.
- Chat - Includes PHP and Java chat rooms. CGI-based chat is not allowed
on our servers.
If you are planning on using our servers to host one of these sites,
Webhostingwith.US will allow for 50 GBs of transfer per month. You will be
billed $10.00/10 GBs/mo thereafter. All other accounts for personal and small
business are allowed unmetered bandwidth. If you adhere to our Terms and
Conditions of Use Policy and run a standard web site, you will be covered under
the unmetered bandwidth policy. (99.9% of all Webhostingwith.US hosted web sites
currently qualify for their unmetered bandwidth usage.) Accounts that do not
follow our Terms and Conditions of Use policy are classified as metered
bandwidth accounts and will be billed accordingly.
12) UNMETERED WEB SPACE POLICY:

Webhostingwith.US customers are privileged to be offered unmetered web space for
their sites on certain plans. The intent of Webhostingwith.US is to provide a
large amount of space to serve your web pages, not an off site storage area for
electronic files or a backup of your PC or for file serving downloads. Ninety
Percent (90%) of your web content must be HTML-based pages (or similar pages)
and must be linked with files (.GIF, .JPEG, etc.) stored within your space,
hosted on a Webhostingwith.US server. Websites that are found to contain limited
or no html documents or a large number of unlinked files will be DELETED
under our Unmetered Web Space Policy.
The Webhostingwith.US Unmetered Web Space Policy does not cover certain web
sites. These include the following:
- Online Gaming - Includes online casinos and single/multiplayer online
games.
- Image Galleries - Includes eBay or other online auction image dumps.
- Downloads - Any site that prompts for a download or has large applets.
- Audio/Video - Any streaming content, web-cams or audio/video downloads.
If you are planning on using our servers to host one of these sites,
Webhostingwith.US will allow for 2000 MBs of web space.

Full backups are made weekly on shared and VPS servers, and backups of

to maintain local copies of their web content and information. A
"Backup/Restore" feature is included with each hosting plan and a client can use
this tool to back up their files. If loss of data occurs due to an error of

the data from the most recent archive for a $25.00 fee.
