Latest update to these terms 1/1/2003

SPAMMING IS NOT PERMITTED
Do not advertise or put our link on any site that is promoted in any way related to unsolicited email, ICQ or IRC spams, or newsgroup postings. Opt-in email newsletters require pre-approval. If we receive spam complaints, your link will be disabled, your account will be immediately terminated, and we will take LEGAL ACTION against you. Please be aware, MRG lists is not acceptable, as well as, any other program that hides the sender email address. We terminate sites without notification when any of these types of programs are discovered.

BULK E-MAIL
We also monitor "Bulk E-mail". While cpanel has a mailing list program installed, any mailing over 2500 messages must be pre-approved. In addition, any site sending over 5000 messages per month will be considered "Bulk". Bulk e-mail ties up the mail que and delays messages for other users. Therefore, we must limit the amount of use on any shared server. There are some arrangements that can be made to accomodate a user with a large list which includes extra fees and special mail scheduling software. Please be aware that posting to Free for All web pages could generate "bulk email" from autoresponders of the FFA list users you have posted to. We may need to take action if these autoresponders are spamming the server and causing the mail que too many delays.

ALLOWED SITES
Your site must be legal in representation and abide by all laws within the United States of America.

Although we do not monitor the content of all sites all of the time, we will not host websites that have pornographic, warez, extremely offensive, or illegal content, or link to websites that have illegal content.

The website cannot attempt to download any virus or malicious or annoying files when opened. IRC bots, programs, or networks of anykind are not allowed. If an IRC program is discovered, immediate termination will result without warning. The following processes are illegal on our servers and will be killed automatically: BitchX, bnc, eggdrop, guardservices, ircd, psyBNC, ptlink, services.

Websites with processes that consume or take the server load to an unmanageable level will have that process terminated immediately. Accounts granted SSH access that are found to have processes running in this same manner will have SSH access deactivated for a minimum of 6 months.

THE PROGRAM'S RIGHTS
We reserve the right, at our request, to see all referring pages and servers logs if neccessary. If illegal content is discovered, upon request, we will turn over all site related documents, files and logs to the proper authorities. We reserve the right to terminate webmasters without payment who make derogitory comments about the program or employees of MyK9Bites We reserve the right to suspend or terminate at will for non-payment. Sites suspended for non-payment wishing to become unsuspended, may be required to pay for an entire year in advance to leave suspended status and must pay a $10.00 re-activation fee, per incident. In addition, all back monies due, must be collected before activation.

ANNUAL HOSTING PACKAGES
Annual Hosting- MyK9Bites hosting plans are set to give our users the most useful tools available to manage the accounts. Standard set up is for monthly pay plans.

Hosting plans that are paid annually are heavily discounted. The discounts warrant MyK9Bites to require a 12 month term agreement to cover the discounted annually hosting fees. When a discounted annual hosting plan is ordered, the user agrees to a term of 12 months of hosting with the MyK9Bites Web Hosting Network.

NETWORK FAILURES AND ACTS OF GOD
