- Customers may not interfere with services (e.g. a DoS Attack), whether intentionally or through neglect, of any other host, or network.
- The prevention of "unintentional attacks", such as infection by and propagation of computer viruses, are the responsibility of every user.
- Users are prohibited from injecting, intentionally or negligently, false or unauthorized network control data into aseohosting's network (i.e. in the form of incorrect routing or DNS information).

Email

Users are prohibited from engaging in improper use or distribution of email. Users are strictly prohibited from engaging in any of the following activities:

- Sending UBE ("spam") for any purpose whatsoever.
- Having third parties send out UBE on any user's behalf ("spamvertizing").
- Using aseohosting facilities to receive replies from unsolicited emails ("drop-box" accounts).
- Configuring any email server in such a way that it will accept third party emails for forwarding ("open mail relay"). If a site has roaming users who wish to use a common mail server, the mail server must be configured to require some form of user identification and authorization. (E.g. SMTP AUTH)
Mass or commercial email may be sent only to recipients who have expressly requested receipt of such emails, by the sending of an email request to the person performing the mass or commercial mailings. This exchanging of requests, acknowledgments, and final confirmations ("confirmed opt-in") must be adhered to in their entirety for any mass or commercial email to be considered permitted by aseohosting.

Note: aseohosting discourages the sending of bulk mail, and only permits such mailings in rare cases, and then only after Confirmed Opt-In has been verified.

In the absence of positive, verifiable proof to the contrary, which must be provided before the mail campaign is initiated, aseohosting considers complaints by recipients of emails to be de-facto proof that the recipient did not subscribe or otherwise request the email(s) about which a complaint was generated.

DMCA Policy

It is the policy of aseohosting Networks to respond expeditiously to claims of intellectual property infringement. aseohosting Networks will promptly process and investigate notices of alleged infringement and will take appropriate actions under 17 USC §512 ("DMCA") and other applicable intellectual property laws. Upon receipt of notices complying with the DMCA, when it is under its control, aseohosting Networks will act expeditiously to remove or disable access to any material claimed to be infringing or claimed to be the subject of infringing activity and will act expeditiously to remove or disable access to any reference or link to material or activity that is claimed to be infringing. aseohosting Networks will terminate access for customers who are repeat infringers. Webhosting customers must adopt and implement a DMCA policy that reserves the necessary rights to remove or disable infringing material. If you believe that a copyrighted work has been copied and is accessible on our network in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, you may notify us by providing our registered copyright agent with the following information:

Elements of Notification:

To be effective under this subsection, a notification of claimed infringement must be a written communication provided to the designated agent of a service provider that includes substantially the following:
- A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed. [As an electronic signature, aseohosting's agent accepts facsimile/fax and digitized image of your signature attached to electronic mail.]
- Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works at a single online site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works at that site.
- Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit the service provider to locate the material. [Please include a URL such as http://... or ftp://... identifying the material or representative material. If possible specify any IDs, passwords, or other authorization required to access the material. Please specify date, time, and timezone from which the material was observed. Technicians may require time information in order to identify dynamically assigned internet locations.]
Information reasonably sufficient to permit the service provider to contact the complaining party, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail address at which the complaining party may be contacted.
- A statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
- A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

Notices of claimed infringement should be directed to support [at] ahostinginc [dot] com

Note: It is assumed that complainants have explicitly requested communication from the aseohosting abuse department ( support [at] ahostinginc [dot] com ), and that such communication will be pre-authorized by the complainant. If email replies to the complainant are blocked, challenged, or otherwise frustrated, then aseohosting will interpret this as a desire by the complainant to cease communication and to withdraw the claim.

Enforcement
Suspension and Termination

aseohosting may immediately suspend or terminate the service of a customer as a result of the violation of any part of this policy through verbal or written notice, which may be provided through email or voicemail. Generally, aseohosting will work to resolve violations of this AUP and ensure there are no future violations; however, aseohosting reserves the right to suspend or terminate service based on the first violation.

Remuneration

Customers who violate any of the provisions of this policy may incur "clean-up" fees to cover the costs of handling AUP violations, complaints, and technician expenses. The amount of the fees may vary, but will be commensurate with the violations.

Disclaimer of Liability

ASEOHosting has no practical ability to restrict conduct, communications or content which might violate this AUP prior to its transmission on aseohosting's network. In addition, aseohosting cannot guarantee removal of any such communications or content after transmission. Therefore, aseohosting does not assume liability to customers or others for any failure to enforce the terms of this AUP. Further, aseohosting's failure to enforce this policy in any instance in which it might have application does not constitute a waiver of aseohosting's rights.

Damages
