KMJ
Web Design provides web hosting to many clients, and we have
a responsibility to protect each client and to provide the
best services available. The following guidelines were designed
to ensure these obligations are met.
FURTHERMORE,
these Policies, Guidelines, and Disclaimer are intended for
all domains residing on KMJ Web Design's servers.
Content:
All services provided by KMJ Web Design may be used for lawful
purposes only. Transmission, storage, or presentation of any
information, data or material in violation of any United States
Federal, State or City law is prohibited. This includes, but
is not limited to: copyrighted material, material we judge
to be threatening or obscene, or material protected by trade
secret and other statute. The subscriber agrees to indemnify
and hold harmless KMJ Web Design from any claims resulting
from the use of the service which damages the subscriber or
any other party.
Pornography
and sex-related merchandising is prohibited on all KMJ Web
Design's servers. This includes sites that may infer sexual
content, or links to adult content elsewhere. KMJ Web Design
will be the sole arbiter in determining violations of this
provision.
Also
prohibited are sites that promote any illegal activity or
present content that may be damaging to KMJ Web Design's servers
or any other server on the internet. Links to such materials
are also prohibited.
Examples
of unacceptable content or links:
-
Pirated software
- Hacker programs or archives
- Sites that promote the use of unsolicited email (Spam)
- Warez sites
- Sites that promote hate, or are prodigious to others.
- Any Site that consumes more than 5% of system resources
Following
are a list of sites that will often require more than 5% of
our systems resources: Domains with busy forums, banner member
scripts, large mailing lists, archives or galleries, (i.e.
.gif, .jpg, .exe, .zip, .tar, etc.), and domain accounts offering
download files.
We
are not saying that your web site can not contain such activities/content,
however if at any time they consume 5% or more of our systems
resources you will be contacted to resolve the problem.
KMJ
Web Design will be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes
a violation of this provision.
Traffic,
Disk Usage and Statistics
All account plans come with a predetermined amount of traffic
allowance. We monitor all accounts and bill $6.99 for each
gig of traffic exceeded. This amount is not prorated, this
meaning that 1 mb - 1 gig will be treated and billed as the
same.
All
Retail plans include a set amount of disk space of which 75MB
of space is allocated toward stats and logs.
Log
files are rotated monthly on our UNIX Retail plans. The previous
months logs are archived on the server. Log files are deleted
monthly on our Windows 2000 Plans. Web Site statistics are
offered "as is" and if activated by the customer
should be automatically generated on UNIX accounts. Windows
2000 customers have to request statistics on a per site basis
and manually update statistics. If statistics are not generated
before log files are deleted statistics will not be available
for that time period.
Commercial
Advertising - Email:
Spamming, or the sending of unsolicited email, from a KMJ
Web Design server or using an email address or domain that
is maintained on an KMJ Web Design machine as reference is
STRICTLY prohibited. This includes sending mass mailings to
email addresses that did not "Opt In*" from a domain
that is maintained on a KMJ Web Design machine. KMJ Web Design
will be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes a violation
of this provision.
*
Any user that joins a list must be sent an email to the address
they signed up asking for them to verify they joined the list.
That user will not be added to the list until they perform
some sort of authentication such as replying to the message
or clicking on a link.
Chat
Rooms
KMJ Web Design will not allow clients to install their own
chat rooms. These tend to be a large drain on system resources
and we cannot allow it as an account option.
Background
Running Programs
KMJ Web Design may allow programs to run continually in the
background. These are considered on a case-by-case basis and
an extra charge will be incurred based on system resources
used and operational maintenance needed.
IRC
KMJ Web Design currently does not allow IRC or IRC bots to
be operated on our servers.

KMJ Web Design will not allow clients to run free services
on shared accounts. This includes but is not limited to free
