Server Abuse
Any attempt to undermine or cause harm to a server, or customer, of
HostingChristians.com is strictly prohibited.
Newsgroups
Posting the same or similar message to one or more news groups (excessive
cross-posting or multiple-posting, also known as "SPAM") is explicitly
prohibited.
WebCams
Transfer monsters. We do not allow webcams because they really take tons of
transfer and unless you are willing to help us pay for the extra bandwidth,
please don't use them. If you must use one and want to help pay for the extra
bandwidth please contact us to discuss it first.
Resellers
- When you order a new
domain under your administration panel, you are billed for that domain and
you, in turn, bill your customer. All new domain registrations will be done
through our registration process and billed immediately to your credit card
that you supplied to us upon sign up.
- We can only allow you to
be a reseller if you are paying by credit card
- Actual or attempted
violations of HostingChristians.com policy by a customer's end user shall be
considered violations of the policy by the HostingChristians.com customer
regardless of intention and will be acted upon accordingly.
- Your customers are given a
limited amount of transfer and if we feel that one of your customers are
using up more transfer than alloted or are taking up too much of the CPU
usage then we will need to pass some of the extra cost on to you and you
will need to pass it on to your customer. You will need to put that in your
terms and conditions for the hosting so you won't get stuck with all the
extra cost. :o)
- You agree that neither you
nor your customers can hold us responsible for services that you offer and
can't come through with.
- Your customers have to
abide by the same terms and conditions as you do or we have the right to
cancel any of your reseller accounts
- If you abuse our services,
we reserve the right to cancel your account which will also cancel your
customers accounts. Please do not spam to get business, please do not
promise things to your customer that you cannot provide.
Transfer
We reserve the right to ask you to move your domain or upgrade to another server
option that suits your needs if your site takes up more than a fair share of the
server resources (over 10%). This can include excessive use of cgi resources,
system resources, or excessive use of bandwidth. One way to help is to not allow
people to link to your graphics or sound files. That can add up fast and take up
your bandwidth before you know it. We allow bandwidth starting at 1 GB per
month, but the load on the server from various applications and cgi processes
can also cause big problems and we will address that if needed. There will not
be any surprise bills, but we will ask you to remedy this problem and if it is
not possible for you to do that, you will be expected to upgrade or move.
Please read our policy on transfer
You must agree to that policy also before signing up.
IP numbers
HostingChristians.com maintains control and any ownership of any and all I.P.
numbers and addresses that may be assigned to the client and reserves in its

applicable domain name registry, including Network Solutions, Inc., and the
directors, officers, employees and agents of each of them, for any loss, damages

Policy. We do not own your domain name nor do we want to (unless you do not pay
for it and we have to transfer the ownership to us - see the section on domain
