are met.

for lawful purposes only. Transmission, storage, or presentation
of any information, data or material in violation of any United

and other statute or unauthorised use of a third party registered
domain name. The subscriber agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
BHG-Host and its employees from any claims resulting from the use
of the service which damages the subscriber or any other party.

illegal activity or present content that may be damaging to BHG-Host
servers or any other server on the Internet. Links to such materials
are also prohibited.
Examples of unacceptable content or links
- Pirated software
- Hacker programs or archives
- Warez sites
BHG-Host will be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes a violation
of this provision.
Multiple hosts resolving at an IP or domain
name that we provide
This means if you open a account with one website
and your pointer sites. We apply this rule if your pointer sites
are high traffic....we would call you, email you and ask you what
can we do about it.
Sites with banners, graphics or cgi's running
from their domain used on other domains
When you employ services such as Link Exchange
or a cgi host who lets 1000's of others link to their site, it is
important that you require any sites you exchange ads with, display
your ad on their server. Not only will not abiding to this guideline
cause your site to load slow, depending on the resources that you
are absorbing you will inadvertently affect our other clients.
Sites with archives or galleries (.gif, .jpg,
exe, zip, tar, etc.)
Meaning if your site has many downloads or
pictures. NOTE: You must be putting a serious drain on our system
before we contact you.
Sites using more than 20% of system resources
BHG-Host will be the sole arbiter as to what
constitutes a violation of this provision.
Chat Rooms
We do not allow clients to install their own
chat rooms. These tend to be a large drain on system resources and
we cannot allow it as an account option.
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.
Email
Spamming, or the sending of unsolicited e-mail
including, without limitation, commercial advertising and informational
announcements, from an BHG-Host server or using an e-mail address
or domain that is maintained on an BHG-Host machine as reference
is STRICTLY prohibited. BHG-Host will be the sole arbiter as to
what constitutes a violation of this provision. A user shall not
use another site's mail server to relay mail without the express
permission of the site. BHG-Host will be the sole arbiter as to
what constitutes a violation of these provisions.
