Croaking Toad Hosting's
general policy is to act as a neutral provider of access to the global
Internet and has specific ethical concerns regarding the use of its
computers detailed below. Croaking Toad reserves the right to suspend or
cancel any customer's access to any or all services provided by Croaking
Toad when Croaking Toad determines that the account in question has been
used in an inappropriate manner or in such a way as to be inconsistent
with the purpose of our acceptable use policy. Any account cancelled due
to violations of the acceptable use policy will not receive a refund of
any monies paid. Any remaining balance shall be used to pay for the
cancellation of the account. Croaking Toad Hosting reserves the right to
modify, change or replace any or all sections of this policy without
notice to the customer. It is the responsibility of the customer to
periodically review this policy to ensure continued compliance.
Continued use of our service implies a continued acceptance of this
policy.
Unauthorized Use of Services
Croaking Toad Hosting will strongly react to any use or attempted use of
an Internet account or computer without the owner's authorization. Such
attempts include "social engineering" (tricking other people into
releasing their passwords), password cracking, security hole scanning or
other methods of intrusion or entry.
Any unauthorized use of
accounts or computers by a Croaking Toad customer, whether or not the
affected account or computer belongs to Croaking Toad will result in
action against the attacker. Possible actions include warnings, account
suspension or cancellation, and/or civil or criminal legal action.
Unsolicited Commercial Advertisements
Unsolicited commercial advertisements are not permitted via email.
Commercial advertisements are unwelcome in most Usenet discussion groups
and on most email mailing lists. Inappropriate posting or emailing may
result in account suspension or cancellation. See the newsgroup or
mailing list's charter to determine whether advertising is allowed or
not. "Spamming" or sending a message to many different off-topic
newsgroups is particularly unethical and may result in account
suspension or cancellation.
Sending a message,
especially an advertisement, to more than five or six recipients is
considered spamming unless the recipients have specifically requested to
be added to a mailing list on that topic. Email is a person-to-person
medium and not a broadcast medium.
Adult Sites
Croaking Toad will not host adult/pornographic sites. Any sites
that are found to contain this content will be warned, suspended or
cancelled at the sole discretion of Croaking Toad Management.
