Unlimited / Unmetered Hosting Packages:

When we say unlimited domains, unlimited disk space and bandwidth, of course there are terms & conditions that you must adhere to. This means unlimited webpages, domains and web graphics, not downloads or streaming media. Our servers are shared hosting servers and memory and CPU usage is not unlimited. CPU intensive files are not permitted on our servers and accounts may not to be used to host a collection of mp3s, audios, videos, anime, .rar files, Warez, gamers sites, shout cast and similar, or to backup your computer or another source. They may not be used for general storage of any type. They may not be used as download mirrors or download/upload portals. While the sale of eBooks and other legal small download files are permitted within reason (see download files below) with the unlimited package, hosting and storage of mass quantities where our servers are used as a distribution point is not permitted.

They may not be used for HYIP (High Yield Investment Programs), Ponzi schemes or pyramid schemes. They may not be used to provide proxy servers. All content stored on a reseller account must be directly used on the Internet by the website associated with that account. These accounts may not be used as a download distribution point for your software or media. They are to be used for standard web practices only. This means that all content stored on an unlimited account must be used for "acceptable" website use. “Unacceptable” usage is anything that a shared server would not be able to provide under standard circumstances and uses a high percentage of CPU or Memory (10%+) usage.

Free hosting is not permitted with unlimited packages, if you intend to offer free domain-based hosting, please choose one of our metered packages. With unlimited packages free hosting is only permitted within reason when the user has their own domain. Sub-domain hosting is only permitted within reason, and your clients are expected to have their own domain. Our servers are intended to host websites offering products and a service, if you are giving away free hosting space that is compromising our business customers, we reserve the right to request that you switch to a metered package.

Server Types / Descriptions:

Web Server - Our servers are web servers. Web server means file hosting that you can view in a browser eg: PHP, SQL, HTML, .JPG, .GIF, .PNG, .XML mostly .SWF and .PDF are fine. If you can't view it in a browser, or it requires special software to view, it's a download or multi-media file.

Download Server - File hosting that you download from the server, eg: .ZIP, .RAR, .GZIP, .MP3, .AVI, .WAV, .DOC, .PSD, .AI, .EPS, .TGA, .TIF . Our servers are not download servers.

Media Server - Multi-media hosting eg: streaming video, streaming audio, radio, shout cast, pod cast, can include chat and shout box. We currenlty do not have a multi-meida server so we can not offer this type of hosting.

Gaming / Clan Server - Gaming servers / hosting usually use intensive server resources and require gaming servers or VPS. We currenlty do not have gaming servers so we can not offer this type of hosting.

Download Files:

Collections of download files are not permited on shared servers because they slow the server down. A reasonable amount of download files can be permitted if you keep the file size under 2000 k .

Data Back-Up

Although regular back-ups will be performed, SBDPK Solutions will not be held responsible for any loss of data. It is up to the hosting account to ensure you maintain a local copy of your web data for your own back-up purposes.

Acceptable Use Policy:

The Internet is a powerful information and entertainment tool, we would expect our customers to use the Internet with respect, courtesy, and responsibility, giving due regard to the rights of other Internet users.

Our acceptable use policy is actively and strictly enforced. Offending content or users are removed from our network, usually as soon as they are discovered, although we will always inform you when and why any action has been taken.

Common sense is the best guide as to what is considered acceptable use, however the following are unacceptable uses.

Illegality:

In any form, including but not limited to the unauthorized distribution or copying of copyrighted software or other data, harassment, fraud, or trafficking in obscene material.

Undesirable Content:

Certain types of content are not permitted on our network. We do not host pornographic content of any description. We reserve the right to determine what constitutes pornographic content and what does not (see adult sites below). Content relating to Hacking, Cracking, Warez and IRC is not allowed. Software downloads may only be hosted if you are the writer and copyright owner of the software, all other software including freeware, shareware and trial software is forbidden. The sale of resellable eBooks is ok.

Bulk Email:

The use of our network to send bulk email whether opt-in or otherwise, and the use of bulk email to promote a site on our network is strictly forbidden. As a guideline, we consider sending over 200 emails at once as bulk email.

Spamming (sending unsolicited email or posting messages to irrelevant UsetNet newsgroups that do not explicitly allow advertising, with references to a site hosted on our servers) is strictly prohibited.

Misuse Of Resources:

Including but not limited to employing applications which consume excessive CPU time, memory or storage space. Chat/IRC, web proxy and mailing list scripts are not allowed on our network under any circumstances. Streaming media, audio, video and shout cast can be a drain on web server resources and as such is not allowed. CGI based message forums which use flat file databases are often found to use excessive system resources, to avoid disappointment please use a PHP message forum. The use of web cam applications which maintain a constant FTP connection uploading an image at regular intervals is forbidden.

Shared and reseller hosting customers are not permitted to provide a free web site hosting service such as image hosting, file hosting, mp3 hosting and any similar hosting service. Reseller customers are permitted to provide a charge for service web hosting service but are not permitted to provide any free web hosting service or similar service.

Password Protected Directories:

Using password protected directories to conduct illegal activities is strictly prohibited. Sites that use password protected directories where their use is not clear are subject to suspension while we investigate the legality of the hidden content.

If you are unsure about content you intend to place on our network, please check with us before you do. We reserve the right to determine what constitutes acceptable use.

Adult commercial sites are permitted including: lingerie sales, adult toy e-commerce sites, Viagra sales, adult health and sexuality, and similar if all models are over 18. Pornographic media is not permitted.

For Resellers:

Remember that if you re-sell hosting on our servers you are responsible for what your clients do. It is your responsibility to monitor your clients to ensure that you enforce our TOS. If your clients are found repeatedly breaking our TOS that result in illegal activities, or server downtime, that this will put your account in jeopardy.
