Macon Hosting Acceptable Use Policy

Macon Hosting provides web site hosting solutions to businesses of all sizes throughout North America. As a Web solutions provider, Macon Hosting offers its customers the means to acquire and disseminate a wealth of public, private, commercial and non-commercial information. Macon Hosting also wants its customers to be fully informed of their rights and obligations and those of Macon Hosting in connection with their use of the Internet.

When customers disseminate information through the Internet, they also must keep in mind that Macon Hosting does not review, edit, censor or take responsibility for any information its customers may create. This places on customers what will be, for most, an unfamiliar responsibility. When users place information on the Internet, they have the same liability as other authors for copyright infringement, defamation and other harmful speech. For these reasons, customers violate Macon Hosting policy and the Hosting Agreement when they, their affiliates or subsidiaries engage in the following activities:

Spamming: Unsolicited, commercial mass e-mailing (known as "spamming") is a strongly disfavored practice among Internet users and service providers. It is particularly harmful not only because of its negative impact on consumer attitudes toward Macon Hosting, but also because it can overload Macon Hosting's equipment and disrupt service to our customers.
Illegal/Unauthorized Access to Other Computers or Networks: The illegal or unauthorized accessing (often known as "hacking" or "cracking") of computers or networks carries potential civil and criminal penalties under both federal laws and the laws of most states.
Other Activities, whether lawful or unlawful, that Macon Hosting determines to be harmful to its customers, operations or reputation, including any activities that restrict or inhibit any other user from using and enjoying the service or the Internet.
Prohibited websites:
1. Websites of Adult or pornographic nature are NOT permitted on our servers.
2. Websites that promote hacking, cracking, software hacks or cracks, illegal serial numbers or Warez sites are NOT permitted on our servers.
3. Websites that promote, engage in or offer illegally copied MP3, WMA or any type of music or video files are NOT permitted on our servers.

Please be aware that Macon Hosting reserves the right to cancel any account we find in excessive violation of any of the above activities.

UNSOLICITED COMMERCIAL E-MAIL (SPAM) POLICY

The transmission of unsolicited or prohibited advertising or other content through electronic mail or inappropriate Usenet postings is forbidden. The use of Macon Hosting's servers or network for unsolicited mass mailings or postings, commercial or otherwise, (commonly known as "Spam") by any customer will cause that customer's services to be terminated immediately and without warning, and the customer will be held legally responsible for the damages to Macon Hosting's network, both monetary and in reputation. This also includes bulk mail advertising which contains customer's domain name. The use of any other service to make such a mailing or posting, with any reference to Macon Hosting's services (including but not limited to mailboxes, autoresponders, and Web pages), shall also be grounds for account termination as described above.

Macon Hosting reserves the right to collect damages to our reputation in a court of law. Any Macon Hosting customer that utilizes Macon Hosting's servers or network for unsolicited mass mailings or postings, commercial or otherwise, (commonly known as "Spam") will be held accountable and liable for damage to our reputation.
