SPAM - Unsolicited mail

 

UCE (Unsolicited Comerse Email) (Unsolicited Commercial Mail) - SPAM

Spam, or the sending of unsolicited email, even in small amounts, from or through a Netwoods server, or using an email address that is maintained on Netwoods equipment, is STRICTLY prohibited. Netwoods will be the sole arbitrator as to what constitutes a violation of the provisions. If you engage in any of the above activities, using the services of another provider's ISP or IP, but routing activities through Netwoods servers such as mail delivery, or mail for replies, it is a violation. Violators will be penalized a minimum of $200.00 and face immediate suspension. See our NO SPAM policies for more details.

 

The definition of spam:

 

An email is "spam" IF: (1) the personal identity of the recipients and the context are irrelevant because the message is equally applicable to many other potential recipients; AND (2) the recipient has not verifiably knowingly, explicitly and even revocably accepted permission for it to be sent to you; And (3) the transmission and reception of the message appears to the receiver to give a disproportionate advantage to the sender.

You will be cited with “UCE/UBE Abuse” if you send any email to people who have not specifically asked to receive email from you. The origin of the sending of said email is irrelevant. Once abuse is confirmed by any Netwoods client engaging in this practice, their service will be suspended. Not only does spam put a strain on a server that can unleash negative effects that are reflected in online time logs and server uptime and performance, you make the server subject to the possibility of being blacklisted.” blacklist”.

If your website will be sending messages to subscribers, here is a list of what you need to do:

The number of messages allowed to send per hour, per domain is 350 messages. You must not try to hide, coerce or misrepresent the sender of the email and the site the email is from.

The sending of mass mail must specifically record how the addresses of the people were obtained and must indicate the frequency of the mail.

The mass mailing should contain simple and obvious mechanisms for not subscribing or unsubscribing. We recommend this be in the form of an active link to a one-click unsubscribe system; however, a valid "reply-to" address may be used instead.

All email-based subscriptions must have valid, non-electronic contact information for the issuing organization in the body of each email including either a phone number or physical mailing address.

A mass mail must be requested, defining that the sender has an existing or probable relationship with the recipient of the mail and the recipients have not requested not to receive future mail from the sender. Documentation of the relationship between the sender and receiver must be available to AOL upon request.

Prohibited uses of the NW network system and services with respect to Spam

Sending of Unsolicited Mass Email (“UBE”, “spam”).

The sending of any form of unsolicited bulk mail through Netwoods servers is prohibited. As well as, the sending of UBE from another service provider advertising a website, email address or the use of any resource hosted on Netwoods servers, is prohibited. NW accounts and services must not be used to solicit clients or collect responses to messages sent from another Internet provider, those messages violate these policies or those of the other provider.

 

Running unconfirmed mailing lists

Subscribing email addresses to any mailing list without the express and verifiable permission of the owner of the email address is prohibited. All mailing lists run by Netwoods clients must be through a double opt-in system. The confirmation message received from each email account owner must be kept on file for the duration of the existence of the mailing list. The purchase of email lists from third parties for submissions from any Netwoods hosted domain, or with reference to any Netwoods account, is prohibited. Operating an account on behalf of, or in connection with, or reselling any service to, persons or firms listed in the Spamhaus Register or Known Spam Operations (ROKSO) database at www.spamhaus.org is prohibited.

We receive automatic reports from Spamhaus, AOL and SpamCop about our IP ranges. If there are more than three complaints regarding your site in one day, the site will be suspended until a resolution/explanation is made.

 

ANY VIOLATION OF THE CONTENT RESTRICTIONS WILL BE CAUSE FOR FINAL SUSPENSION OF THE ACCOUNT WITHOUT REFUND OF MONEY OR INDEMNIFICATION OF ANY KIND

Adult Pages - Allowed

       

Exclusive content for adults

Our Servers allow pages of Adult Content that conform to the rules that govern said sites, as long as no minor is mentioned or shown in any case, or reference is made to child pornography. Any site with adult content will be permanently evaluated by NW and will be immediately suspended without compensation if it violates any of our rules or Colombian laws. The restriction of use for people over 18 years of age must be clearly indicated at the beginning of the site.

Server Abuses

Any attempt to underestimate, impair or cause harm to a Netwoods server or client is strictly prohibited.

Any NW subnets and dedicated servers must adhere to the above policies. Failure to follow or comply with any of the guidelines creates grounds for account deactivation. We reserve the right to remove any account without prior notice.

Program Distribution

NW shared hosting accounts may not be used for the purposes of distributing programs or multimedia products. If you wish to distribute programs and/or multimedia files, please contact sales for a special arrangement.

Media Files

Media files are defined as any graphic, audio, and video files. Netwoods.com hosting accounts may not be used to store an unusual amount of media files. Any site whose disk space is used for media file storage that exceeds 70% of its total usage, either in terms of total size or number of files, will be charged with using unusual amount of media files.

Resource Abuse Policy

Any website, on our shared servers that uses a higher amount of server resources (CPU, memory usage and network resources) will be given the option to pay for a dedicated server or VPS. The abuse and misuse of shared system resources is a serious problem. Accounts on a shared server must share resources with other users so we must limit how much CPU and memory space can be used by any one account.

In fairness, we can't allow one or two clients to use all the system resources on a shared machine and let all other clients suffer for it. Excessive CPU and memory usage by one or more clients causes extreme throttling in all other areas: My-SQL, Email, http and more. If CPU and memory usage gets out of hand by some clients, all sites hosted on one machine will fail and will not be accessible in any way.

Average resource limits for a server.

Memory usage should not exceed 10% per domain/file/application. CPU usage must not exceed 20% per domain/file/application

Apache connections must not exceed 30 connections

Maximum 15 MySQL user connections are allowed

350 emails per hour, per domain

There are special exceptions to these rules to be determined once we discover abuse. There are different usage combinations that can create problems and other special cases. At any given time that a server is unstable and an account is found to be the cause, we reserve the right to suspend the account to keep the server online and operating normally. If the usage is an increasing trend, we recommend that the user invest in a dedicated server so that the website can grow at a normal rate without restrictions.

These policies are intended to serve as a guide, and are in no way intended to be exhaustive. Acts that violate laws, regulations, or accepted standards in the Internet community, whether or not expressed in these policies, are prohibited.

Suspensions

In the event that your website has been suspended for resource abuse (abuses that cannot be resolved by removing/changing a script, etc.) and you do not wish to upgrade to a dedicated server to accommodate your website's needs, we will only release the suspension within the next 24-48 hours. This is to ensure that the site's CPU slows down the traffic to prevent any future damage and problems. A backup of your files will then be provided and you will not be allowed FTP/cPanel access for a certain period of time.

Other Client Responsibilities

Give adequate technical management to your hosting or dedicated server service.

The user is totally responsible for the actions that he performs on the files and functions offered by his hosting account and for the consequences that said actions may have.
