Policy and Service Guidelines
We provide web hosting to many clients, and we have a
responsibility to protect each client and to provide the best
services available. The following guidelines were designed to
ensure these obligations are met.
Content
All services provided may be used for lawful purposes only.
Transmission, storage, or presentation of any information,
data or material in violation of any Australian or U.S.A.
Federal or State 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
us harmless from any claims resulting from the use of the
service which damages the subscriber or any other party.
Pornography is prohibited. Both OzWebHost and our providers
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 our
servers or any other server on the internet. Links to such
materials are also prohibited.
Examples of unacceptable content or links:
• Spamming
• Pirated software
• Hacker programs or archives
• Warez sites
• Sites with pornographic content
We will be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes a violation of
this provision. Any violation is subject to a penalty of up to US$1,000.
- Disclaimer - OzWebHost and our
network providers are not responsible for any damages caused
by services provided, and makes no warranties of any kind,
expressed or implied for services we provide.
- Commercial Advertising - Email:
Spamming, or the sending of unsolicited email, from our server
or using an email address or domain that is maintained on our
machine as reference is STRICTLY prohibited. We will be the
sole arbiter as to what constitutes a violation of this
provision. Any violation is subject to a penalty of up to US$1,000.
- 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.
- Server Abuse: Any attempt to
undermine or cause harm to a server, or customer is strictly
prohibited. Any violation is subject to a penalty of up to US$1,000.
- Refusal of Service: We reserve the
right to refuse, cancel, or suspend service at our sole discretion.
All accounts and customers using our services must adhere to
the above policies. Failure to follow any term or condition
will be grounds for immediate account deactivation.
Payment
Customers who are on recurring plans are due for automatic
billing from their credit card approximately 7 days prior to
the anniversary of their sign up date, and every period
thereafter, on or about the same day of the month.
If your credit card information has changed, then you must notify
us immediately so we may change this information. If on your
bill date, your credit card is declined, or
payment is not received on the due date, your account may be
interrupted temporarily and an email will be sent to the
address on file to notify you of this problem. If payment is
not arranged within 14 days, we will close your account, and
any files will be lost.
For Free Trial offers, we require sign-up for three months and
your credit card number. At the end of the trial period, if
you do not advise us otherwise, we will debited your credit
card for 3 months' hosting.
All prices are in Australian (Au$), U.S.A. (US$)Dollars and
Thai Baht. We service clients Worldwide.
Credit Card Payments
We are happy to accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express and
BankCard cards for payment. We use various fraud prevention
methods to protect us, our merchant account, our bank and the
customer who owns the credit card being used. This includes
tracking the IP number and ISP of the person who is using the
credit card, verifying the card matches the Zip/Post Code and
Address of the cardholder.
If anyone attempts to obtain
service using a fraudulent credit card, your hosting account
will be terminated without warning, we will have the right to
place an 'account suspended' page on your IP, and we will
cooperate with authorities to report the incident and the
information used to obtain the account including your domain
name. We take credit card fraud very seriously. If you have
received a credit card statement with our name on it, and did
not order our services, please email billing@ozwebhost.net
immediately. Your credit card statement will be billed as Ozwebhost.
Cancellation
If for any reason you are not satisfied with our services, please
let us know. We build our services around making hosting
simple for the customer and want you to be happy. If for some
reason we cannot meet your needs, you may notify us in writing
and we will discontinue billing your account at the end of
your current bill cycle. We require seven days notice of any
cancellation. No refunds are issued for hosting services
already paid for, except during the first 30 days of service.
New domain registrations
New domain registrations are final once submitted. However, you may transfer your domain to another
provider if you wish. Once you have submitted your order for a
domain name it is registered and not reversible, and we cannot
refund the domain registration charges. To transfer or modify
domain information, email us. If a domain is not available or
taken before our system can register it, we will notify you
and offer to register another domain or refund the
registration charges. You should note the Uniform Domain Name
Dispute Resolution Policy from ICANN before registering a new
domain.
Back-ups
We are not responsible for backing up your web files. It is
solely your responsibility. We provide a facility on your
Control Panel ("Backup") for downloading your backup. This
should be done daily. Your data is precious, protect it as such.
Data Transfer
Additional data transfer is billed at US$3.00/Au$6 per 1000
Megabytes/month (or portion thereof). When you exceed, or are
about to exceed, we will attempt to send you a courtesy
e-mail. We are not responsible for checking on your account
daily and if you exceed, you are still responsible for your
usage charges.
You may elect to change to a different hosting
plan during the bill cycle (we prorate changes mid-cycle) to
help cover usage, however, you must remain on that new plan
for at least 30 days. If you do not change to another plan,
you are charged the fee above. We cannot make exceptions to
this for any reason, including not sending you a courtesy email.
