USER
AGREEMENT : WE WEBiFF provides Domain Name Registration,
Web site hosting and Web based application development. All services
provided by Webiff may be used for lawful purposes only.
Webiff reserves the right to refuse service and/or access
to its servers to anyone. Webiff reserves the right to
suspend or cancel any client's access to any portion or all of
Webiff services, when Webiff deems that the
account has been used inappropriately.
WEB
HOSTING : The client is responsible for programming and for
uploading the Web site to our Web servers. Webiff does
not provide free Web site development, consulting, programming, or
debugging services. The client is responsible for keeping a complete
and current copy of Web site files as backup on a remote system (not
on Webiff.net servers). Webiff is not responsible
for any lost files, information or data. Webiff's backup
tapes are for backing up our system configurations and databases and
are NOT for keeping backups of client Web sites. Should any data
need to be recovered from Webiff's backup tapes, there
will be a restoration charge, on an as-available basis. Webiff does not guarantee to possess the most current
copy of a client's Web site.
SUPPORT :
Technical support is provided via email and chat only. Any personal
phone or other direct support will be for an extra charge. The first
contact with Webiff is through email. The client agrees
not to Spam our support staff and to follow standard Internet
etiquette.
SYSTEM
UPDATES : The client understands that system updates occur in
real time and as queued batch processes. For example, account
Passwords are currently updated as queued batch processes; therefore
the update does not occur in the system instantaneously.
Webiff reserves the right to modify the processing times
at any time without notice. If a client or Webiff support
personnel (when authorized by client) makes any modifications to a
hosting account, the client is responsible for ensuring these
updates have occurred in our system.
ILLEGAL
ACTIVITIES : including but not limited to storing and/or
distributing illegal copies of copyright software,
hosting/maintaining inappropriate sites, violating trademarks and
copyrights, violating International laws, selling and/or
distributing illegal contraband.
INTERNET
ABUSE : including but not limited to: spamming - mass
unsolicited emailing, posting obscene or inflammatory messages,
nudity, threatening other Internet users, and spamming our support
staff. Any adult content will be put off the web server as and when
or system notices and the client's account will be terminated
without any refunds.
SYSTEMS
ABUSE : including but not limited to using excessive CPU
resources, using excessive disk space, attempting to gain access to
root and other clients' accounts (hacking), installing continuously
running programs, and reselling CGI scripts.
Webiff does not censor our customers' Web
sites, although our policy strictly prohibits adult sites. The
determination of what is adult content & prohibited, shall be
made solely by Webiff. Should a policy violation occur,
Webiff reserves the right to terminate the account
without notice and the client will be held responsible for any
damages to Webiff's business, system, servers,
connectivity, reputation, service, network, operations or equipment
resulting from its actions including, but not limited to, government
actions, vandalism, retaliation and claims of libel, unfair
competition, infringement of patent, copyright, trademark, service
mark, or other intellectual property right, violation of privacy, or
other tort
DOMAIN
NAME REGISTRATION : ·
Domain Name registration is on a First-come-first-serve basis.
Webiff will not be responsible for the availability of
the Domain Name in the 3-4 days that it can take to register a
Domain Name. In between you register a domain name through
Webiff website and the time payment is received from you,
it might happen that during this period the domain name is booked by
some other individual or organization. In such a case
Webiff would not be responsible. The payment to this
effect would be refunded in case the client does not want to book
another domain name.
PAYMENT
POLICY : All services are provided on a prepayment basis. We
currently accept Personal Checks, Bank Draft, Cash and Wire
Transfer.
SERVER
ABUSE : Any attempt to undermine or cause harm to a server,
or customer, of Webiff is strictly prohibited.
Unauthorized use of other people's accounts or
computers, Webiff will strongly react to any use or
attempted use of an Internet account or computer without the owner's
authorization. Such attempts include but not limited to "internet
scamming" (tricking other people into releasing their passwords),
password robbery, security hole scanning etc.
Any
unauthorized use of accounts or computers by a Webiff
customer, whether or not the attacked account or computer belongs to
Webiff, will result in action against the attacker.
Possible actions include warnings, account suspension or
cancellation, and civil or criminal legal action, depending on the
seriousness of the attack.
Unsolicited Email (Spam) : Unsolicited commercial advertisements are not allowed
in e-mail, and will likely result in account suspension or
cancellation. Commercial advertisements are unwelcome in most Usenet
discussion groups and on most e-mail mailing lists. Inappropriate
posting may result in account suspension or cancellation. See the
newsgroup or mailing list's charter for whether advertising is
allowed or not. "Spamming," or sending a message to many different
off-topic newsgroups, is particularly unethical and will be treated
as such. Sending a message, especially an advertisement, to more
than five or six recipients, is by itself spamming unless the
individuals have specifically requested to be added to a mailing
list on that topic. E-mail is a person-to-person medium, not a
broadcast medium. Upon your first Spam offense your mail will be
disabled for 72 hours. Upon your second Spam offense your entire
domain will be disabled for 72 hours. Upon your third offense your
account with Webiff will be terminated.. No refunds will
be given if your account is terminated for Spam.
CGI
Scripts : Each
account comes with its own Universal cgi-bin. You are free to use
any CGI scripts you wish, however we reserve the right to disable
any CGI script that effects normal server operation without prior
warning.
Universal CGI-BIN means you can put your .pl files
anywhere in your www directory.
Chat
Rooms
: We do not
allow clients to install their own chat rooms, without approving it
with the Webiff Support Team. Most chat rooms tend to be
large system hogs and we cannot allow it as an account option.
Abuse of
SMTP Mail Server
: We only
allow our clients to use our SMTP server without using any illegal
techniques and any unauthorized use of our SMTP server such as spam
mail is not allowed.
Background Running Programs : We may
allow programs to run continually in the background. These are
considered on a one-to-one basis and an extra charge will be
incurred based on system resources used and operational maintenance
needed.
IRC : We
currently do not allow IRC or IRC bots to be operated on our
servers.
Payment Policies : All
accounts are set up on a pre-pay basis. All pricing is guaranteed
for the term of pre-payment. Webiff reserves the right to
change prices at any time, unless other terms have been agreed
upon.
Webiff reserves the right to change its rates or
pricing policy at any given point of time but the customers who have
paid for their account will continue with the same pricing for their
current billing cycle for with they have paid for.
