Copyright Infringement

It is Host's policy to respond to notices of alleged infringement that comply with the UK Copyright Laws and other applicable intellectual property laws, which may include removing or disabling access to material claimed to be the subject of infringing activity. If we remove or disable access to comply with the UK Copyright Laws, we will make a good-faith attempt to contact the owner or administrator of each affected site so that they may make a counter notification pursuant to sections 512(g)(2) and (3) of that Act.

Use of copyright material known or otherwise on Host service is prohibited with the exception where Client has provided written evidence that client has permission to use the material

The use of the website coding named as wapdesire is strictly prohibited and no permission of usage will be permitted. Host explicitly denies all rights to usage if the forenamed website coding on any of hosts services

Network Security

Client may not use Host's Network in an attempt to circumvent user authentication or security of any host, network, or account. This includes, but is not limited to, accessing data not intended for the Client, logging into a server or account the Client is not expressly authorized to access, password cracking, probing the security of other networks in search of weakness, or violation of any other organization's security policy. Client may not attempt to interfere or deny service to any user, host, or network. This includes, but is not limited to, flooding, mail bombing, or other deliberate attempts to overload or crash a host or network. Host will cooperate fully with investigations of violations of systems or network security at other sites, including cooperating with law enforcement authorities in the investigation of suspected criminal violations. Users who violate system or network security may incur criminal or civil liability.

Cgi/Perl Applications

Some accounts come with CGI/Perl enabled. Client is free to use any CGI script desired; however Host reserves the right to disable any CGI script that adversely affects normal server performance or network integrity. CGI-script sharing with domains not hosted by Host is not allowed.

Cron Access

Some accounts come with Cron enabled, Client is free to use this feature, Host does restrict this usage to a maximum of TWO Cron jobs per day per domain to be run between the hours of 1AM and 8AM GMT, Exceeding this is considered abuse and may result in the feature being disabled at Host's discretion In severe cases as decided at Host's discretion Host reserves the right to terminate the offending Client account(s) without notice.

Background Running Applications

Background daemons are prohibited. Should you be in ANY doubt about a program that you intend to run contact Host BEFORE installing.

Server Resources

Any web site that uses a high amount of server resources (such as, but not limited to CPU time, memory usage, and network resources) will be given an option of either upgrading their service level to an appropriately rated package or reducing the resource used to an acceptable level as defined by CDJ Hosting.

Internet Relay Chat (IRC)

IRC, IRC Bots, BNC, or MUDs may not be operated on CDJ Hosting servers.

UNSOLICITED E-MAIL (SPAM)

Host's servers may not be the source, intermediary, or destination address involved in the transmission of unsolicited bulk e-mail (UBE), unsolicited commercial e-mail (UCE), spam, off-topic newsgroup posts, flames, or mail bombs. Client's domain may not be referenced or traceable in any way as a result of any of the above. This prohibition extends to the sending of unsolicited mass mailings from another service that in any way implicates the use of Host's network or equipment. Host reserves the right to refuse and/or cancel service to known spammers. Host reserves the sole right to determine what constitutes violation of this provision.

SPAM is any unsolicited e-mail, post, or facsimile in the newsgroup, e-mail, fax, or other electronic medium. Any unsolicited commercial email (no matter how relevant or important it may be) is spam; any unsolicited bulk email (commercial or not) is also spam. Mass and unsolicited are not concurrent conditions for spam. One and/or the other is sufficient. In the medium of newsgroups, spam is considered to be any off-topic posting and/or any identical posting to multiple newsgroups. A message is considered unsolicited if it is posted in violation of a newsgroup charter or if it is sent to a recipient who has not requested or invited the message. For purposes of this provision, merely making one's e-mail address accessible to the public shall not constitute a request or invitation to receive messages.

Any spam complaints received about Client domains are addressed seriously. After investigation, if it is deemed by Host that spamming practices have indeed been utilized on Host's servers, Host reserves the right to terminate a domain account immediately with no refund and to assess a £250 penalty per spam incident. Client expressly accepts Host's right to assess this penalty and agrees to its assessment and payment.

Service Abuse

Any attempts to undermine or cause harm to any server is strictly prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to attempting to gain access to password files other than your own, attempting to gain unauthorized access to other accounts on your server, or anything that causes server malfunction. Failure to comply is subject to immediate account deactivation without refund.

Please note that while CGI/PERL scripts and/or mSQL/mySQL code can unintentionally cause server malfunction, Host will make the final determination if the code was maliciously programmed. If the code was programmed incorrectly but not out of apparently malicious intent, Host will disable the program, but not cancel Client's account.

Traffic Overages

Host will make every reasonable effort to notify Client of projected traffic overages prior to any action being taken to disable Client's account. However, Host reserves the right to disable Client's account without prior warning due to traffic in excess of the account allocation. In some cases, "unusual" traffic patterns will cause an automatic disablement of Client's account without warning.

Bandwidth usage is calculated daily around midnight. A monthly projection is calculated at that time based upon month-to-date actual usage. If the projection exceeds the account allocation, an e-mail warning is sent to the Client. If actual bandwidth usage exceeds the allocation, the account is automatically disabled; the Client is notified via e-mail of the disablement, and is given the option of purchasing additional bandwidth to re-enable the account. Client is not automatically charged for excess bandwidth usage without agreeing to the charges in advance. However, payment for excess bandwidth usage will be required before the account can be reinstated. Client wishing to upgrade to a service with higher provision of the resource may do so by contacting CDJ Hosting to make arrangements.

Technical Support

While Host will make every reasonable effort to help Clients with all of their questions, there are some times when Host must either refer Client to the manual, or confess an inability to help. It is impossible for Host to support all of the countless 3rd party programs and configurations that are available to web developers and users today.

In general, technical support is limited to server-side issues such as: Password changes, server failure, general account feature usage questions, e-mail issues, Frontpage server extension issues, web-based control panel questions, etc.

Technical support is not provided for domain name registration issues (unless domain name registration is provided by CDJ Hosting), CGI scripts - pre installed or 3rd party, web page development or programming, ISP problems, 3rd party software -- including FrontPage and other HTML Editors, MySQL database, etc. for third party applications please contact the third party directly to ensure complete and accurate support

Reselling Web Space

Client may subdivide and give away or resell for profit web space and other services on Client's account to other users. Client's Clients must adhere to these policies and guidelines, too. Any infraction from Client domain, regardless of the source, shall be treated as a violation by the Client. If an infraction is serious enough (server tampering, spam, etc.), Client account can and will be cancelled without refund, without warning.

Monitoring Resold Server Space It is up to the Client as a reseller to monitor resold web space or provide facility for Cpanel access to Client Clients. Host cannot apply server space restrictions to any directory on Client Clients service.

Customers/Sub Accounts of Client shall not contact CDJ Hosting for ANY support, First and only point of support is With Client.
