VeeroTech does not require its subscribers who offer Internet services to monitor or censor transmissions or web sites created by customers of its subscribers; however, our subscribers remain liable to VeeroTech for the acts and omissions of its customers. VeeroTech reserves the right to directly take action against a customer of its subscribers. Also, VeeroTech may take action against VeeroTech\u2019s subscriber because of activities of a customer of the subscriber, even though the action may affect other customers of the subscriber. Similarly, VeeroTech requires that subscribers who offer Internet services will cooperate with VeeroTech in any corrective or preventive action that VeeroTech deems necessary. BY way of example, VeeroTech reserves the right not to accept postings from newsgroups where we have actual knowledge that the content of the newsgroup violates the AUP.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Failure to cooperate with such corrective or preventive measures is a violation of VeeroTech policy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">VeeroTech will not intentionally monitor private electronic mail messages sent or received by its subscribers, unless required to do so by law, governmental authority or when public safety is at stake. VeeroTech may, however, monitor its service electronically to determine that its facilities are operating satisfactorily. Also, VeeroTech may disclose information, including, but not limited to, information concerning a subscriber, a transmission made using our network, or a web site, in order to comply with a court order, subpoena, summons, discovery request, warrant, statute, regulation or governmental request. VeeroTech assumes no obligation to inform the subscriber that subscriber information has been provided and, in some cases, may be prohibited by law from giving such notice. Finally, VeeroTech may disclose subscriber information or information transmitted over its network where necessary to protect VeeroTech and others from harm, in the event VeeroTech becomes aware of potential illegal activity, or where such disclosure is necessary to the proper operation of the system. VeeroTech will use this information in conformance with our Privacy Policy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">VeeroTech expects that its subscribers who provide Internet services to others will comply fully with all applicable laws concerning the privacy of online communications. A subscriber&#8217;s failure to comply with those laws will violate VeeroTech\u2019s policy. Finally, VeeroTech wishes to emphasize that, pursuant to our Terms of Service, subscribers defend, indemnify and hold harmless VeeroTech for any violation of the Terms of Service, law or the VeeroTech AUP resulting in loss to VeeroTech or the bringing of any claim against VeeroTech by any third party due to the acts or omissions of you or your customers\/end users. This means that if VeeroTech is sued because of a subscriber&#8217;s or customer of a subscriber&#8217;s activity, the subscriber will be responsible for payment of any damages awarded against VeeroTech, plus costs and attorney&#8217;s fees. <\/span><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><b>Limited Bandwidth, Disk Space, Databases, Email, Resellers, Domains Policy, and Storage Restrictions.<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">VeeroTech does not currently set &#8220;hard&#8221; quota disk storage and bandwidth limits on shared web hosting accounts.

This is not to be confused with hosting files, you may certainly utilize your storage resources included with your plan however.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Audio\/Video streaming large amounts can also be considered resource intensive and we recommend against it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">In short, if your account does not affect other customer accounts, and you do not intentionally abuse this policy, you will have no problems and need not worry about bandwidth quotas.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Add-on Domains: While we do not force strict limits on the number of add-on domains on every shared hosting account, we do reserve the right to deem a high number of add-on domains to be too many. Generally, if the add-on domains are affecting the performance of the account, we may recommend using a reseller account.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Resold cPanel accounts (resellers): Select Reseller plans do not have a set limit on the number of cPanel accounts you can create. We do reserve the right to deem too many for accounts with a large number of resold accounts. In this case, we&#8217;d recommend either an additional reseller account on a different server (a discount would apply) or upgrading to a virtual server (VPS) or a dedicated server.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">These limitations are based solely on performance and stability reasons to ensure our servers run at optimal performance and maintain high availability.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Email:<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Accounts that contain large numbers of email accounts are subject to the fair use policy. Accounts found having large a number of connections that impact the availability of email services to other customers may require an upgrade onto their own server.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Storage Use Restrictions: We do not permit the use of hosting accounts as long term file storage unless the files are directly related to your website. This includes ISO files, OS IMG files and cPanel-generated backup files. cPanel-generated backup files will be automatically removed from our servers after 24 hours due to the large amount of resources required to backup backups. We kindly request that after a cPanel backup is generated, that you immediately download the backup and then remove it from your hosting account. Failing to do so may prevent our R1Soft daily backups from fully completing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">You may not store any of the following items on a web hosting account &#8211; this applies to both limited and unlimited plans:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">archives, backups, file storage and file sharing<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">copyrighted material<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">ISO, IMG, large ZIP\/TAR files<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Media files not directly used by your website<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">VeeroTech reserves the right to notify and remove content found in violation of the Terms of Service. VeeroTech has discretion over what files\/content may or may not be within this policy and will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis for the account found in violation of this agreement.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Per cPanel Account Resources: While we do not impose strict bandwidth limitations on shared hosting accounts any longer, the same resource limitations apply to both unlimited and limited accounts. These limits are in reference to inodes, processes, memory and CPU.This information can be found on the plan\u2019s specification page.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><b>F. <\/b><\/span><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"><b>Website Owner Responsibility<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Guidelines for your website:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">You are fully responsible for managing, developing and the operation of your website.
