Guarantee
All hosting accounts have a full money back
guarantee. Upon cancellation within 30 days of
payment, if the account holder is not satisfied
for any reason, the amount refunded will be the
dollar amount paid to LongIslandWebHosting.com by
the account holder. Domain registration fees are
not refundable.
Termination of Service
Refunds for accounts cancelled after the first
30 days will be granted ONLY for full/partial
months that you have paid for but not used. The
contract may be cancelled without stating the
reason by either of the contracting parties. The
Client may cancel the Website Hosting Agreement
with us at any time, by giving us one month's
written notice, provided that payment is
up-to-date. A pro-rata refund for accounts
cancelled after the first 30 days will be
granted for any unused period of the advance
payment within thirty (30) days of the
termination of the validity of this contract.
All other claims and obligations of a monetary
nature ensuing from this contract shall be
settled by the contracting parties at the latest
within thirty (30) days of the termination of
the validity of this contract.
You are responsible for making sure that we have
your current and correct contact information on
file, by frequently logging into your billing
account. We reserve the right to send
announcements and invoices relating your hosting
account and domain name with us. No more than
twice a month we may email you information on
promotions or discounts relevant to your hosting
or domain account with us. We ask that you not
report these messages as spam to spamcop or any
other similar service, because that makes more
work for us and less benefits for other
customers. Doing so may be considered grounds
for termination of your account.
Privacy
LongIslandWebHosting.com will NOT sell, trade or
otherwise disclose your email address or any
other contact information to any third party
except under the direction of law enforcement
officials.
We will also not reference any web sites that we
host unless we have the consent of the web site
owner.
Downtime and backups
We will make every reasonable attempt to avoid
unexpected server downtime and to ensure that
all accounts are well taken care of. We cannot
guarantee or predict server downtime. Any
network problem, or outage, is not covered under
any guarantee or warranty and will not be
grounds for reimbursement for any subsequent
financial damages or losses. All account data
backups are the account holder's responsibility.
LongIslandWebHosting.com is NOT responsible for
your data backup or subsequent loss. Shared
hosting accounts should not be used for mission
critical websites or email that require absolute
redundancy.
Unsolicited E-mail (anti-spam policy)
Accounts caught sending unsolicited (as defined
by LongIslandWebHosting.com) email or Usenet
postings, either through our servers or to
promote a web site on our servers will be
terminated immediately, will not qualify for a
refund and will be charged $50 per complaint
filed. Accounts terminated for sending
unsolicited email or Usenet posts give up all
rights to any backups and technical support
associated with this and ALL accounts hosted on
any and all LongIslandWebHosting.com servers and
network. You may not create email forwards which
forward to an email address not accessible by
you, unless the recipient has specifically
consented for you to do so.
LongIslandWebHosting.com reserves the right to
investigate accounts accused of sending
unsolicited emails, or Usenet postings, in any
way deemed necessary. This includes suspending
the accused account, during the pending
investigation.
Sites promoting, advertising or otherwise making
available tools, information and/or software for
the purpose of sending unsolicited email or
Usenet postings will be shut down without
notice. We reserve the right to cancel all
hosting accounts of anyone having an account
suspended for sending spam. We will make
available, upon request, the source of the
complaints. We will NOT make available the
actual complaint, if it means giving out
individual contact information of the person
filing the complaint. WE STRONGLY SUGGEST THAT
YOU AVOID USING THIRD PARTY MAILING LISTS - EVEN
IF THEY ARE GUARANTEED TO BE CLEAN!!!
Although we have a ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY on
unsolicited email/spam, we are not unreasonable
and will review each situation with discretion.
However, we can and will enforce our Terms of
Service.
*Unsolicited is defined by LongIslandWebHosting.com as: E-mail sent to recipients who have
not asked to be contacted by you or Usenet
postings (that are cross-posted to more than
three newsgroups and/or posted in newsgroups
where this is against that groups FAQ or
charter), for the sole purpose of promoting a
website or commercial business on our servers.
Excessive Bandwidth Use
If your hosting account with LongIslandWebHosting.com goes over the bandwidth allowance set
for that account, you agree to pay for that
overage. All of our Cpanel hosting accounts have
bandwidth restrictions set.
Account Termination

grounds for immediate account termination. Web
sites deemed offensive, pornographic or racially
degrading by LongIslandWebHosting.com will be

behavior of any type will not be tolerated. Web
sites promoting, making available or otherwise
contributing to software piracy, hacking,

Accounts using up enough server resources to
slow or crash a server will be shut down. If an
account is shut down due to server resource
issues, we will (upon request) make a reasonable
effort to help get the account unsuspended. This
includes tracking down the offending program, if
applicable, and/or making available other
arrangements for hosting the account on a
semi-private or private server (additional fees
may be required).
We do not allow ANY Matt Wright FormMail script
to be installed on our servers. For a list of

hacking, or other inappropriate activity of any
type outside of your account on our servers will
be grounds for termination.
In addition, your account is for web and email
use only. Any other activities, at our sole
discretion, will be grounds for termination as
well.
This Terms of Service may be amended at any time
at the discretion of LongIslandWebHosting.com.

changes made to these policies. Notification of
any major changes to the policies will be
emailed to the email addresses we have on file
