NETWORK AND MACHINE RESOURCES

UWS reserves the right to monitor and allocate network and machine resources. IP addresses are allocated per server and according to virtual server specifications. Cgi resources are allocated one per domain (a virtual host is required for each cgi-bin and is considered a virtual host). UWS in its sole discretion and upon reasonable notice to customer reserves the right to discontinue any hosting account and/or any script which causes excessive server load and/or uses excessive server and network resources.

SYSTEM AND NETWORK SECURITY

Violations of system or network security are prohibited, and may result in criminal and civil liability. UWS will investigate incidents involving such violations and may involve and cooperate with law enforcement authorities if a criminal violation is suspected. UWS respects the privacy of customer data and vigilantly protects that data and ALL customers who host with UWS.

Examples of unlawful acts, system, or network security violations include, without limitation, the following:

Sending unsolicited mail messages, including, without limitation, unwanted advertising and informational announcements, is explicitly prohibited. A user shall not use another site's mail server to relay mail without the express permission of the site owner. Legitimate mailing lists and subscriber lists are acceptable. Otherwise, it is spam.

USENET

Posting the same messages to multiple newsgroups (excessive cross-posting or multiple-posting, also known as "SPAM") is expressly prohibited.

INDIRECT OR ATTEMPTED VIOLATIONS OF THE POLICY, AND ACTUAL OR ATTEMPTED VIOLATIONS BY A THIRD PARTY ON BEHALF OF AN UWS CUSTOMER OR A CUSTOMER'S END USER, SHALL BE CONSIDERED VIOLATIONS OF THE POLICY BY SUCH CUSTOMER OR END USER.

For Example:

If you are hosting a bulk email site on UWS servers and you use another ISP to SPAM from in order to reference your UWS site by IP address or domain name, you are violating UWS policy and possibly the law.

If you have been granted telnet access to UWS servers, multiple telnet log-ons are strictly prohibited and you must come from a valid IP address. Forgery is against the law.

Any type of denial of service attack from valid or invalid addresses is a violation of UWS security policy and against the law.

If you have been granted password privileges for FTP or telnet, sharing your password with an unauthorized user or third party is strictly prohibited.
