SPECIFIC ACCEPTABLE USE POLICIES
UNAUTHORIZED USE
OzeWebHost 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 etc.

Any unauthorized use of accounts or computers by an OzeWebHost customer, whether or not the attacked account or computer belongs to OzeWebHost, will result in action against the attacker. Possible actions include warnings, account suspension or cancellation, and civil or criminal legal action, according to the seriousness of the attack.

ZERO TOLERANCE
OzeWebHost's policy concerning unsolicited email and posting of adult content is immediate cancellation. If you engage in any of these activities on our network, your services will be terminated immediately, with no prior notice, and no refunds for unused portions of service will be granted.

This policy has been developed not as a limit to network traffic, but as an issue of Internet etiquette and is adhered to (and enforced) by most ethical service providers.

UNLIMITED USE POLICY
All content on OzeWebHost servers must be related directly to and linkable from your web site.

1. OzeWebHost disk space is not to be used for bulk storage of any kind.

3. High bandwidth usage: OzeWebHost offers an unlimited use policy by maintaining very large ratios of bandwidth and disk space per customer. In rare cases, OzeWebHost may find a customer to be using server resources to such an extent that he or she may jeopardize server performance and resources for other customers. In such instances, OzeWebHost reserves the right to impose the High Resource User Policy for the consideration of all customers. OzeWebHost does the best to provide all the resources our customers may need for web hosting while reserving the right to move any one customer to the High Resource User Policy to prevent monopolization of server resources.
