 Upon signing up for Premier Focus' services, all customers agree to comply with Premier Focus' Terms of Use. The spirit of this policy is to ensure our clients are using our services with due regard to the rights of other internet users and in conformity with the requirements of our network environment.
Illegal Use
The servers may be used for lawful purposes only. Transmission, storage, or distribution of any information, data, or material in violation of any applicable law or regulation is prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to: copyrighted material; trademarks; trade secrets or other intellectual property rights used without proper authorization; material that is obscene, defamatory, constitutes an illegal threat, or violates export control laws. Examples of unacceptable content or links include: pirated software, hacker programs or archives, Warez sites, MP3, and IRC bots.
Adult Content
Due to the special system and network requirements of adult-oriented sites, pornography and sex-related merchandising are prohibited. This includes sites that may infer sexual content or provide links to adult content elsewhere. This is also true for sites that promote any illegal activity or content that may be damaging to our servers or any other server on the internet, or provide links to such sites.
Security
Violations of system or network security are prohibited and may result in criminal and civil liability. Examples include but are not limited to the following: unauthorized access, use, probing, or scanning of systems security or authentication measures, data, or traffic; interference with service to any user, host, or network including, without limitation, mail bombing, flooding, deliberate attempts to overload a system, broadcast attacks; forging of any TCP-IP packet header or any part of the header information in an email or a newsgroup posting.
Server Resources
Any web site that uses a high amount of server resources (such as, but not limited to, CPU time, memory usage, and network resources) will be given the option to either pay additional fees (which will depend on the resources required), reduce the resources used to an acceptable level, or upgrade its service to a dedicated server plan. Premier Focus shall be the sole arbiter of what is considered to be a high server usage level.
Any web hosting account deemed to be adversely affecting server performance or network integrity will be shut down without prior notice.
CGI Scripts
CGI script sharing with domains not hosted by Premier Focus is not permitted. Any CGI-scripts deemed to be adversely affecting server performance or network integrity will be shut down without prior notice.
Background Running Programs and Cron Jobs
Premier Focus may allow programs to run in the background. These programs will be considered on an individual basis and customers may incur extra charges based on system resources used and operational maintenance needed. If you wish to run background programs please contact us so that it can be arranged.
IRC
Premier Focus does not allow IRC or IRC bots to be operated on our servers.
UCE (Unsolicited Commercial Email) - SPAM
Spamming, the sending of unsolicited mass email from or through a Premier Focus server or using an email address that is maintained on a Premier Focus machine is strictly prohibited. Premier Focus will be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes a violation of this provision. Clients are also in violation of this provision if they engage in spamming using the service of another ISP or IPP, but channel activities through a Premier Focus server as a mail drop for responses. Violators will be assessed a minimum fine of USD $1000.00 and will face immediate suspension.
Server Abuse
Any attempts to undermine or cause harm to a Premier Focus server or customer are strictly prohibited.

Multimedia files are defined as any graphics, audio, and video files. Premier Focus' web hosting accounts are not to be used for the purposes of distributing or storing unusual amounts of multimedia files. Any web site whose disk space usage for storing multimedia files exceeds 70% of its total usage, in terms of total size or number of files, will be considered to be using an unusual amount of multimedia files.
Databases
Any database stored on Premier Focus' servers shall be limited in size to 10% of the total disk space allotted for that particular domain's web hosting account.
Actions Taken by Premier Focus
The failure by a client to meet or follow any of the above Terms of Use is grounds for account deactivation. Premier Focus will be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes a violation of the Terms of Use. Premier Focus reserves the right to remove any account without prior notice.
When Premier Focus becomes aware of an alleged violation of its Terms of Use, Premier Focus will initiate an investigation. During the investigation, Premier Focus may restrict a client's access in order to prevent further potentially unauthorized activity. Depending on the severity of the violation, Premier Focus may, at its sole discretion, restrict, suspend, or terminate a client's web hosting account and/or pursue other civil remedies. If such violation is a criminal offense, Premier Focus will notify the appropriate law enforcement authorities of such violation.
Premier Focus does not issue credits for outages incurred through service disablement resulting from Terms of Use violations.
