  Terms Of Service



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.

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).
