"UNLIMITED" USAGE POLICIES AND DEFINITIONS
What "Unlimited" means. BlueServers.org or Energizedit.com does not set
an arbitrary limit or cap on the amount of resources a single Subscriber
can use. In good faith and subject to these Terms, BlueServers.org or
Energizedit.com makes every commercially reasonable effort to provide
its Subscribers with all the storage and bandwidth resources needed to
power their web sites successfully, as long as the Subscriber's use of
the service complies with these Terms. By not setting limits on key
resources, we are able to provide simple, consistent pricing to our
Subscribers as they grow their websites. As a result, a typical website
may experience periods of great popularity and resulting increased
storage without experiencing any associated increase in hosting charges.
What "Unlimited" DOES NOT mean. BlueServers.org or Energizedit.com employs complex mechanisms to protect its Subscribers and systems from abuse. BlueServers.org or Energizedit.com's offering of "unlimited" services is not intended to allow the actions of a single or few Subscribers to unfairly or adversely impact the experience of other Subscribers.
BlueServers.org or Energizedit.com's service is a shared hosting service, which means that multiple Subscriber web sites are hosted from the same server and share server resources. BlueServers.org or Energizedit.com's service is designed to meet the typical needs of small business and home business website Subscribers in the United States. It is NOT intended to support the sustained demand of large enterprises, internationally based businesses, or non-typical applications better suited to a dedicated server.
BlueServers.org or Energizedit.com will make every commercially reasonable effort to provide additional resources to Subscribers who are using their website(s) consistent with these Terms, including moving Subscribers to newer and bigger shared servers as necessary. However, in order to ensure a consistent and quality experience for all Subscribers, BlueServers.org or Energizedit.com does place automated safeguards to protect against any one site growing too quickly and adversely impacting the system until BlueServers.org or Energizedit.com can evaluate said sites resource needs.
Unlimited Hosting Space; excessive MySQL files.BlueServers.org or Energizedit.com does not set arbitrary limits on the amount of disk space a Subscriber can use for the Subscriber's website, nor does BlueServers.org or Energizedit.com charge additional fees based on an increased amount of storage used, provided the Subscriber's use of storage complies with these Terms. Please note, however, that the BlueServers.org or Energizedit.com service is designed to host websites. BlueServers.org or Energizedit.com does NOT provide unlimited space for online storage, backups, or archiving of electronic files, documents, log files, etc., and any such prohibited use of the Services will result in the termination of Subscriber's account, with or without notice. Accounts with a large number of files (inode count in excess of 200,000) can have an adverse affect on server performance. Similarly, accounts with an excessive number of MySQL/PostgreSQL tables (i.e., in excess of 1000 database tables) or of database size (i.e., in excess of 3GB total MySQL/PostgreSQL usage or 2GB MySQL/PostgreSQL usage in a single database) negatively affect the performance of the server. BlueServers.org or Energizedit.com may request that the number of files/inodes, database tables, or total database usage be reduced to ensure proper performance or may terminate the Subscriber's account, with or without notice.
Unlimited File Transfer. BlueServers.org or Energizedit.com does not set arbitrary limits on the amount of visitor traffic a web site can receive or on the amount of content a Subscriber can upload to his/her/its website in a given month, nor does BlueServers.org or Energizedit.com charge additional fees based on increased use of bandwidth, as long as the Subscriber's use of the Services complies with these Terms. In most cases, a Subscriber's web site will be able to support as much traffic as the Subscriber can legitimately acquire. However, BlueServers.org or Energizedit.com reserves the right to limit processor time, bandwidth, processes, or memory in cases where it is necessary to prevent negatively impacting other Subscribers.
Backups
Energized I.T. performs nightly backups
of shared and reseller servers; however, these backups are for Energized
I.T.'s administrative purposes only, and are in NO WAY GUARANTEED!
Customers are responsible for maintaining their own backups on their own
personal computers. Energized I.T. does not provide any sort of
compensation for lost or incomplete data in the event that backups do
not function properly (even if the malfunction was due to negligence on
Energized I.T.'s part). We will do our best to ensure complete and
accurate backups, but assume no responsibility for this duty. Always
back your site up to your personal computer! We make no guarantees about
the availability of backups.
Unsolicited Email (SPAM)
SPAMing, or the sending
of unsolicited email, from a Energized I.T. LLC server or using a return
email address that is maintained on a Energized I.T. LLC server is
STRICTLY prohibited. Using SPAM to advertise a site hosted on Energized
I.T.'s network also constitutes as a violation of this provision.
Energized I.T. LLC will be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes a
violation of this provision. Sites found to be in violation of our SPAM
policies will be immediately deactivated and no refund will be issued.
Help us STOP SPAM! Please email our abuse department immediately to report a violation of our SPAM policies.
Support Abuse
At Energized I.T., we always treat
our customers with the utmost respect. In return, we expect the same
from you. If our staff feels that you are consistently addressing them
in a demeaning or rude manner, your account may be suspended and you may
be asked to take your business elsewhere. In the event that we
terminate service for support abuse, customers will be given ten (10)
days notice to find a new host. A pro-rated refund may be issued on a
case-by-case basis.
Server Abuse
Any attempts to undermine or cause
harm to a Energized I.T. LLC Internet Solutions server or customer of
Energized I.T. LLC is strictly prohibited.
Energized I.T. LLC will be
the sole arbiter as to what constitutes a violation of this provision.
Accounts found in violation of this provision will be subject to
immediate account deactivation without refnud. Energized I.T. will turn
all available information about abuse incidents, including customer
contact data, over to the proper authorities and press charges.
Failure to Follow Policies
Failure to fully
comply with these terms is grounds for account suspension and/or
deactivation (with or without refund, subject to Energized I.T.'s
discretion). Any accounts and/or servers contained within Energized
I.T.'s network must adhere to the above policies.
We reserve the right to remove any account without prior notice. If we deactivate your account for violating policy, you will forfeit your rights to a refund--and none will be given. No refunds for advanced payment. Our normal policy is a warning first, and account deactivation the second offense, but no warning is required.
Energized I.T. LLC reserves the right to deactivate and remove any site hosted on our servers that contains any content that it deems in its sole discretion to be unacceptable, undesirable or contraindicated.
