Acceptable Use Policy (AUP)

The Services are designed for lawful use only. It is your responsibility to understand and comply with the laws of the United States of America, and the state set out in the paragraph entitled “Choice of Law”, when using our Services.

Your use of the Services must be reasonable. You may not place excessive burdens on our, or our third-party vendors’, CPUs, servers, or other resources. You may not interfere with the services we provide to other customers. You may not use excessive bandwidth. We reserve the right to place restrictions on your use of the Services if your usage is greater than that of similarly situated customers.

You agree to cooperate with us to enable your use of the Services. This includes, but is not limited to:

  • Providing us with accurate contact and billing information.
  • Designing material that is suitable for server use.
  • Ensuring that you, your employees and agents have sufficient technical knowledge to implement and use the Services.

We strive to maintain a high level of service, and many customers rely on our quality standards. Therefore, we will not provide Services to anyone using them for:

  • Hacking. This includes attempts to access without authorisation another computer or network, port scans, stealth scans, and fraudulent “phishing” techniques.
  • Hosting files or other data that infringe another person’s copyright or intellectual property rights.
  • Spamming or the sending of bulk unsolicited email. This includes unauthorised commercial messages or maintaining an open SMTP connection.
  • Placing undue burden on our servers or networks, or those of our third-party vendors.
  • Uploading or linking to content that violates another person’s rights to privacy or publicity.
  • Distributing hate speech or any content that is obscene, abusive, libellous or defamatory.
  • Hosting, storing or distributing pornographic material. This includes sites that link to adult content elsewhere. Our servers may not be used for the propagation, distribution, housing, processing, storing or handling of obscene or lewd materials.
  • Hosting, storing or distributing child sexual abuse material. Any such content will be reported to the appropriate law enforcement authorities.
  • Using the Services for a content delivery network (CDN) unless authorised. An authorised CDN offered through Fabrc may be permitted. Requests to run a CDN must be approved on a case-by-case basis. Failure to comply may result in termination of this Agreement without refund.
  • Using IRC servers connected to public IRC networks. Any IRC servers that result in interference, malicious activity or increased demand on our network are prohibited.
  • Any activity that violates applicable laws or regulations in your jurisdiction.
  • Hosting proxy websites on shared hosting plans.
  • Running Camfrog software on Fabrc servers.
  • Using the Services for intrusive activities including port scanning, sniffing, spoofing or cryptocurrency mining.

We reserve the right, at our discretion, to refuse new service or discontinue existing service if your actions, or those of your customers, negatively impact the stability of our platforms or repeatedly violate this AUP.

Shared Hosting

Shared hosting packages may not be used as backup services. Files stored on your account must relate directly to your website. Archiving MP3s, videos, images or backups is prohibited. Customers who require these functions should upgrade to a dedicated server.

Bandwidth Overages (Dedicated Servers Only)

By agreeing to these terms, you understand that we may charge for bandwidth usage in excess of that provided with your server or hosting package.
