You MUST agree to all of
these terms prior to signing up with WebUX.
WebUX has a responsibility to ensure that each of our
clients are provided with the best services we
have available. The following guidelines outline use of our
service and your account.
Content
All services provided by WebUX may be used for
lawful purposes only. Transmission, storage, or
presentation of any information, data, or
material in violation of any United States
Federal, State, or City law is prohibited. This
includes, but is not limited to copyrighted
material, material we judge to be threatening or
obscene or material protected by trade secret and
other statute. The subscriber agrees to indemnify
and hold harmless WebUX from any claims resulting
from the use of the service, which damages the
subscriber or any other party.
While we back up files
continuously, we are in no way responsible for
the archiving of a site. It is the sole
responsibility of the site creator to copy,
back-up or archive all files that constitute a
web site.
Pornography and sex-related merchandising is
prohibited on all WebUX servers. This includes
sites that may infer sexual content or links to
adult content elsewhere.
WebUX will be the sole arbiter in determining
violations of this provision.
Also prohibited are sites that promote any
illegal activity or present content that may be
damaging to WebUX servers or any other server on
the Internet. Links to such materials are also
prohibited.
Examples of unacceptable content or links:
- Pirated software
- Hacker programs or archives
- Warez sites
IMPORTANT NOTE - WebUX has the right to discontinue service, or deny access to anyone who violates our Policies or the terms and conditions shown below WITHOUT WARNING OR PRIOR NOTICE. No refunds of fees paid will be made if account termination is due to violation of the terms outlined below.
Customers may not run IRC, bots or clients on shared servers. Unacceptable uses also include, but are NOT limited to: Bulk emailing, unsolicited emailings, newsgroup spamming, pornographic content, illegal content, copyright infringement, trademark infringement, warez, cracks, software serial numbers, and/or anything else determined by WebUX to be unacceptable use of WebUX's services including abuse of server resources. WebUX shall be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes a violation of this provision.
Accounts may be terminated that include the following content or which have links to the following content:
- Providing material that is grossly offensive to the Web community including blatant expressions of bigotry, racism, hatred, or profanity

constitutes a violation of this provision.
Commercial Advertising - Email
Spamming, or the sending of unsolicited email,
from an WebUX server or using an email address or
domain that is maintained on an WebUX machine as
reference is STRICTLY prohibited. Accounts that
are found to be spamming or sending large quantities
of unsolicited email will be immediately deactivated
and no refunds will be offered on any payments made.
We constantly monitor for spamming on all WebUX servers.
WebUX will be
the sole arbiter as to what constitutes a
violation of this provision.
Background Running Programs
We may allow programs
to run continually in the background. These are
considered on a case-by-case basis and an extra
charge will be incurred based on system resources
used and operational maintenance needed.
IRC
We currently do not allow IRC or IRC bots to
be operated on our servers.
Domain Pointing
Domain pointers are to be used for the purpose
of having more than one way to find the same
site, not for the purposes of sharing an account
among multiple sites. A domain pointer may not be
set up to reference a subdirectory within an
existing Web hosting account served by WebUX or
any other provider.
Server Abuse
Any attempt to undermine or cause harm to a
server, or customer, of WebUX is strictly
prohibited, and will result in immediate
termination and/or prosecution.
Governing Law
This agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the City of Lynchburg and the Commonwealth of Virginia. You agree that for purposes of venue and jurisdiction this contract was entered into and performed in Lynchburg, Virginia, and any dispute will be litigated or arbitrated in Lynchburg, Virginia.
Refusal of Service
We reserve the right to refuse, cancel, or
suspend service at our sole discretion.
Billing Problems and Termination
WebUX employs the Advanced Invoice billing method
for all of our domain customers. This means that all
domain customers are billed one month in advance. All
payments are due 30 days from invoice. Past due payments
are subject to late fees. A domain that is past due for
two or more billing cycles is subject to termination.
Accounts paid by credit cards that are
rejected by our online card processor are grounds
for termination. Because of the risk of credit
card fraud, any account that offers two bad
credit cards within any 6-month period will be
subject to immediate termination.
Lawful Purpose
WebUX reserves the right to refuse service to any party. Customers may only use our servers for lawful purpose. Transmission of any material in violation of any Federal, State or Local regulation is prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to copyrighted material, material legally judged to be threatening or obscene, and material protected by trade secrets. We expressly forbid anyone from using servers for the propagation, distribution, housing, processing, storing, or otherwise handling in any way lewd, obscene, or pornographic material, or any other material which we deem to be objectionable, including, but not limited to, pornography, satanic materials, and any and all materials of an adult nature. The designation of any materials as such described above is left entirely to the discretion of our management.
