2. SmokingMegaBytes HOSTING SERVICES
   A web hosting service is a type of Internet service that offers individuals and organizations the opportunity to host their own websites, and to store information, images, video, or other content accessible via the World Wide Web. A Storage Service Provider (SSP) is a company that provides computer storage space and related management services. SSPs also offer periodic backup and archiving. SmokingMegaBytes offers only web hosting services, not data storage services. A web hosting service consists of the following:

   1. Bandwidth - Each hosting plan includes prepaid monthly bandwidth in Megabytes. This bandwidth quota is shared between all the sites in a single hosting account. In case a hosting account exceeds its allowed bandwidth, it will be suspended until beginning of the next month when the quota will refresh automatically. Additional bandwidth is available. Contact sales for more information.

   2. Domains Hosted - SmokingMegaBytes hosting plans include domain hosting. Each hosting plan has a limit of the domains hosted.

   3. Domain Registration - available at discounted price only with purchasing web hosting account(s). Each web hosting account can use a maximum of one discounted domain name. Domain registrations are final and cannot be refunded.

      More detailed information regarding domain names can be found in the Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy.

   4. Disk Space - Additional disk space is available. Payment is accepted only in advance per year. Contact sales for more information.

   5. IP Address - For many customers an IP address is important for starting SSL hosts and that's why we allow purchasing more IP addresses. In case your hosting account does not include an IP address, please contact sales for more information on how to obtain it. Payment is accepted only in advance per year.

   6. MySQL Database(s) - In case your hosting account does not include a MySQL database, please contact sales for more information on how to obtain it. Additional MySQL databases are available.

   7. MySQL Database Storage - Each hosting account has a limit for MySQL database storage. This storage is shared between all the MySQL databases in a single hosting account. Additional MySQL database storage is available. Contact sales for pricing.

   8. SSH (Secured Shell) - In case your hosting account does not include a SSH, please contact sales for more information on how to obtain it. Payment is accepted only in advance per year.

3. BACKGROUND OPERATIONS/PROGRAMS ON SERVERS
   These programs, named cron jobs, can be continuously run by SmokingMegaBytes in the background. Their provision suggests additional fee in accordance with system resources used and operational maintenance involved, if needed. Generally, SmokingMegaBytes avoids placing complementary charges upon customers, providing the CronTab service that is integrated in the hosting Control Panel. Optional SmokingMegaBytes Services: These services, including but not limited to: Site Studio, Mailing Lists and other services offered are provided WITHOUT WARRANTY and WITH NO GUARANTEE OF RESULTS. SmokingMegaBytes ADDITIONAL SERVICES OR FEATURES AND VALUE-ADDED SERVICES OR FEATURES ARE OFFERED ON "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS. SmokingMegaBytes REJECTS ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES. ANY OF SmokingMegaBytes' EMPLOYEES, MANAGEMENT OR AFFILIATES MAY NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE OR THUS LIABLE FOR ANY POSSIBLE DAMAGES PROVOKING USE OR MISUSE OF ANY INFORMATION, CONTENT OR SERVICES PROVIDED BY SmokingMegaBytes, INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, AND INCIDENTAL DAMAGES RESULTING FROM ANY FAILURE TO PROVIDE SERVICES, SUSPENSION OR TERMINATION OF SERVICES.

4. SERVICE GUARANTEES
   SmokingMegaBytes will guarantee 99.9% SmokingMegaBytes network uptime and 99.9% network stability uptime. This, however, does not refer to problems stemming from:

   1. Server Hardware Breakdown.

   2. User error(s) or purposeful interruption(s) of the user service (e.g. if the client shuts his/her own server down, SmokingMegaBytes is not responsible for the downtime).

   3. Failures due to software that is not explicitly supported by SmokingMegaBytes. Consequently, if a hardware crash provoked by the customer happens, SmokingMegaBytes is beyond the control and responsibility for the resulting downtime.

   A data backup is available on a daily basis. All the contents of a client's /www/ folder will be added to the backup, as well as all the databases that belong to the customer. The maximum space provided to a client for his backup is 5 GB of disk storage.

5. SERVER USAGE & HOSTED CONTENT

   1. Server content MUST comply with the parameters stated in this TOS. Web content requirements exclude the publication of illegal content or content considered inappropriate otherwise. Customers should get in touch with a SmokingMegaBytes Service representative regarding any inquiries over the matter.
   2. If any of SmokingMegaBytes Services are used for the illegal purpose of SPAM or UCE, then they will be instantaneously terminated.

      Unauthorized Access. SmokingMegaBytes expressly bans the use of any SmokingMegaBytes hardware or software hosted on a SmokingMegaBytes server for trying to illegally access another hosted machine or network.

   3. Using SmokingMegaBytes's temporary URL is not defined as bandwidth stealing. However, customers are advised to use it temporarily and SmokingMegaBytes does not bear the responsibility, if we change it afterwards - traffic processing there is not recommendable. It is not recommendable to use SmokingMegaBytes' temporary URL - scXX.info/scXX.biz - as a basic URL. Users are advised to redirect their traffic to their own domains.

      Each customer will be able to take advantage of the package he/she has purchased at the introductory price levels and with one and the same set of features in the course of the whole contract period. SmokingMegaBytes reserves the right to introduce certain changes to the packages (in the shape of complementary services) to the benefit of customers.

6. MONEY BACK GUARANTEE
   SmokingMegaBytes offers a 30-day money back guarantee. If you are not satisfied with our hosting service, you can email and receive a full refund for your hosting plan within 30 days after you purchased the account. However, all domain registrations are final, do not include any money back guarantee and will be subject to a $9.95 USD per year per domain registration fee. You will be required to make a deposit of $9.95 USD for the domain fee before receiving the refund for the hosting account.

7. PAYMENT, CHARGEBACKS AND RETURNED CHECKS

   1. SmokingMegaBytes contracts with JCB / VISA / MASTER CARD International and Discover Financial Services for chargeback procedures, thus avoiding its merchant accounts involvement. When signing up for a web hosting service with SmokingMegaBytes, customers agree to AUP (this document) and the specified Terms & Conditions in this document. Thus, SmokingMegaBytes will utilize this document as an evidence for the customer's agreement in cases of a chargeback inquiry on behalf of the customer based on points that the client tries to refute after he accepted them at the time of the order.

      If, however, customer presents a valid motive for the refund required, having observed the afore-specified requirements, then SmokingMegaBytes will process the money back procedures without hesitation. Any refund actions will immediately lead to web hosting account suspension and the customer's credit card will be charged back with the respective sum under the same payment order / authorization number.

   2. SmokingMegaBytes will charge customers with fees based on the fee structure at the time of the sign-up process. SmokingMegaBytes reserves the right to introduce changes to the packages when needed regarding price and set of features. This means that the current price list at smokingmegabytes.com may differ from the pricing and features of the customer's account.

   3. When signing up for an account with SmokingMegaBytes, the customer agrees to pay for the period of one year (365 days). SmokingMegaBytes grants customers with 48 hours over the official payment period. In case that the payment has not been received, the account will be suspended.

Any customer who provides a credit card chargeback in response to a bill or order placed at SmokingMegaBytes will be subject to collections and legal action. He/she will be charged $29.00 USD, because when signing up with SmokingMegaBytes, customers accept these terms and conditions, thus agreeing to observe them strictly.

8. WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS

    3.

Forging of any TCP/IP packet header or any part of the header information in an e-mail or newsgroup posting.

    6. Harm to SmokingMegaBytes Servers - any attempts for doing harm to a server or customer of SmokingMegaBytes Services are explicitly banned

       1. Acceptable Use of Services / Acceptable Access to Services - SmokingMegaBytes will immediately and resolutely react to any attempt of use of an Internet account or computer by a SmokingMegaBytes customer unauthorized by the account or computer owner. Such attempts include "Internet scamming" (tricking other people into releasing their passwords and etc.), password robbery, security hole scanning etc. It DOES NOT matter whether the attacked account or computer belongs or not to SmokingMegaBytes Services, the fraud will be subject to actions based on the very nature of the attack which could be a warning, an account suspension or cancellation and civil or criminal legal action.

    7. CPU usage (or usage of the Central Processing Unit(s)) on the web server Customer's account is hosted on is subject to some regulations. That means that each hosting account can take advantage of up to 10% of the CPU power for no longer than 180 seconds at any given time or 4.5% in the course of 24 hours. SmokingMegaBytes strongly requires that customers be very judicious when using the CPU power for their accounts. Otherwise, we may suspend customer accounts in cases of registered impact on other accounts on the server or disturbance caused to the functioning of the server. If we do suspend an account, then its owner will be notified of that in consistence with the situation that this suspension may provoke. Then the account's owner may be required to upgrade to a dedicated or semi-dedicated web hosting solution. Possible alternative is a required reduction in the load and traffic that the customer's account gets. SmokingMegaBytes reserves the right to block files or scripts that use CPU exceedingly and notify clients.

    8. Customer agrees not to publish on or over its account any information, software or other content, which violates or infringes upon the rights of any others or which knowingly contravenes the laws of any jurisdiction in which such content is generally accessible.

    9. Users are NOT allowed to send more than 1500 emails per day per hosting account.

    10. Each account is entitled to host up to 50 000 files.

    11. SmokingMegaBytes offers generous amounts of disk space and network bandwidth. The customers must not allow other websites or hosting servers to link to files stored in their hosting accounts, and thus steal network traffic. In order to escape unjust distribution of the resources, as well as possible sharing of illegal content, the Customers are not allowed to use their hosting accounts as a remote storage server only or solely for the purpose of sharing (un)archived images, programs or sound files. At least 80% of all files and/or total megabytes used (including MP3, WAV, RA, GIF, JPG, ZIP, RAR, but not limited to these file extensions) in each hosting account must be a part of actual, active website(s) content, i.e. all content files must have corresponding HTML or PHP files, which link to them. Furthermore, these files may amount to no more than 50% of the customer's total monthly traffic usage. If requested, the Customer should prove that a given file is a constituent part of an actual page and not only stored on the server within 24 hours of the request.

         

    12. MySQL usage: each database hosted on our system can be used only by the user who has created it. Another user, whose account is hosted on the same or on another server, cannot use the database created in your account. The MySQL database has a limit of 45 000 queries per hour. If you have reached 45 000 queries per a given hour, you will not be able to make any more queries. In the next hour you will have access to the database again and the counter will be reset.

    13. The access and error logs for all client's hosts in an account should not exceed 500 MB in total.

    14. SmokingMegaBytes does NOT allow sites that provide any content, points of distribution, or 'links' to sites that:

        1. infringe on any third party's intellectual property or proprietary rights, or rights of publicity or privacy

        2. violate any law, statute, ordinance or regulation

        3. are defamatory, trade libelous, threatening, unlawfully harassing, abusive, pornographic or obscene

        4. contain viruses, Trojan horses, worms, time bombs, cancelbots, corrupted files, or any other similar software or programs that may damage the operation of another's computer or property of another

        5. contain Pirated or Hacking / Phreaking Software (Warez) - Any software that is copyrighted and not freely available for distribution without cost. ROMs, ROM Emulators and Mpeg Layer 3 files (MP3) all fall under this jurisdiction

        6. have Adult Sites (content) - Any erotic or pornographic material, links to adult sites, or advertisements of adult sites.

15. SERVICE EXPIRATION AND RENEWAL
    The hosting service is active for one year (365 days). After that period of time, the account will be automatically suspended until the Customer renews it by paying the anual subscription. In case the Customer does not renew his hosting account, it will remain BLOCKED. The account's data will be kept for two months, after that it will be permamently deleted.
    
    The redemption period is a registry level period of up to 30 days that occurs when a domain name is deleted after it expires without being renewed. Instead of just being deleted and returned to the pool of domain names available for registration, the registry holds the name in a REDEMPTION PERIOD. During this 30-day period, the original domain registrant may retrieve the domain name from deletion for an additional fee by contacting the registrar.
    
    This extra 30-day period extends the time available to renew expired domain names. However, all names that enter the redemption period are removed from the zone files (the list of domains currently in the global DNS); therefore, any web site or e-mail services associated with the domain name will stop working.
    
    After the 30-day redemption period there is a 5-day pending delete phase. When a domain is in this phase no one can retrieve the domain and it cannot be registered. After the 5-day pending delete phase the registry will release the domain name back into the public pool of available domain names.
    
    We strongly recommend that you renew your domain registration before the domain name is placed in redemption. If your domain name is placed into redemption, we cannot prevent the zone files being removed from the DNS and your web site and any associated services will cease to work.
    
    We can assist in retrieveing your domain only if your domain was registered with us. If your domain was registered with another registrar, you must contact that registrar for information regarding retrieving your domain name. You will be charged with a REDEMPTION FEE of $190.00 USD for the domain registration renewal.
