Acceptable User Policy Last Modified - 01/01/2008

All users of DirectSpace Networks` services, and all customers upon signing up for DirectSpace Networks` services, agree to comply with DirectSpace Networks` Terms of Service (“TOS”). The spirit of the TOS is to ensure customers are using DirectSpace Networks` services with due regard to the rights of other Internet users and in conformity with the requirements of DirectSpace Networks` network environment. The TOS are not exhaustive and DirectSpace Networks reserves the right to add, delete, or modify any provision of its TOS at any time without notice, effective upon either the posting of the modified TOS to www.DirectSpace Networks.net or notification of the modified TOS. Any complaints about a customer's violation of the TOS should be sent to abuse@DirectSpace Networks.net. The TOS supersedes any other agreement with DirectSpace Networks, whether written, oral, by conduct, or otherwise.

A. DirectSpace Networks Web Hosting & E-commerce Customer Restrictions

The following Terms of Service apply only to DirectSpace Networks` Web Hosting and E-Commerce customers, and supplement the terms in sections C and D that apply to all DirectSpace Networks customers:

Server Resources: Any web site that uses 35% of server resources (such as, but not limited to, CPU time, memory usage, and network resources) will be given the option to either pay additional fees (which will depend on the resources required), reduce the resources used to an acceptable level, or upgrade its service to a Dedicated Server plan. DirectSpace Networks will be the sole arbiter of what is considered to be a high server usage level.

Spamming: Sending unsolicited bulk and/or commercial messages over the Internet (known as "spamming") is prohibited, regardless of whether or not it overloads a server or disrupts service to DirectSpace Networks` customers. The term "spamming" also includes, but is not limited to, maintaining an open SMTP policy, engaging in spamming using the service of another ISP or IPP and referencing in the spam a web site hosted on a DirectSpace Networks server, and selling or distributing software (on a web site residing on a DirectSpace Networks server) that facilitates spamming. Violators will be assessed a minimum fine of $200 and will face immediate suspension. DirectSpace Networks reserves the right to determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, what constitutes a violation of this provision.

Scripts: Any scripts that pose a potential security risk or are deemed to be adversely affecting server performance or network integrity will be shut down or will be automatically removed without prior notice. DirectSpace Networks does not permit script sharing with domains not hosted by DirectSpace Networks or any scripts that may be abused for UCE purposes.

Chat Rooms: DirectSpace Networks does not allow Web Hosting and E-Commerce customers to install their own chat rooms. Chat rooms tend to require significant system resources and therefore cannot be permitted as an account option. However, DirectSpace Networks provides Java chat rooms that meet most users' needs and run without hindering system performance.

Background Running Programs and Cron Jobs: DirectSpace Networks may allow programs to run in the background. These programs will be considered on an individual basis and Web Hosting and E-Commerce customers will incur extra charges based on system resources used and operational maintenance needed. If you wish to run background programs please contact DirectSpace Networks at cs@DirectSpace Networks.com so that we can arrange set-up.

IRC: DirectSpace Networks does not allow IRC or IRC bots to be operated by Web Hosting and E-Commerce customers.

Software Distribution: DirectSpace Networks` Web Hosting and E-Commerce accounts are not configured for the purposes of distributing software and/or multimedia products. If you wish to distribute software and/or multimedia files, please contact sales@DirectSpace Networks.net to make special arrangements.

Multimedia Files: Multimedia files are defined as any graphics, audio, and video files. DirectSpace Networks Web Hosting and E-Commerce accounts are not to be used for the purposes of distributing and storing unusual amounts of multimedia files. Any web site whose disk space usage for storing multimedia files exceeds 10% of its total usage, in terms of total size or number of files, will be considered to be using an unusual amount of multimedia files.

Bittorrent: DirectSpace Networks does not allow Bittorrent software of any type to be ran on our network. Any use of such product will result in suspension of account with the possibility of payment of damages performed on our network resources.

B. DirectSpace Networks Dedicated Server Customer Restrictions

The following Terms of Service apply only to DirectSpace Networks` Dedicated Server customers, and supplement the terms in sections C and D that apply to all DirectSpace Networks customers:

Customer Security Responsibilities: The customer is solely responsible for any breaches of security affecting servers under customer control. If a customer's server is involved in an attack on another server or system, it will be shut down and an immediate investigation will be launched to determine the cause/source of the attack. In such event, the customer is responsible for the cost to rectify any damage done to the customer's server and any other requirement affected by the security breach.

IRC: DirectSpace Networks allows Dedicated Server customers the use of IRC inside the DirectSpace Networks network as long as the use of IRC on a DirectSpace Networks server does not violate any of the other terms of these TOS. As a policy, DirectSpace Networks will not provide vanity IRC reverse DNS records. To enforce this policy DirectSpace Networks does not turn the reverse address of IPs over to the customer. Authority over this information remains with DirectSpace Networks.

Billing for Network Resources: The customer understands that the customer is responsible for paying for any network resources that are used to connect the customer's server to the Internet. The customer may request that the customer's server be disconnected from the Internet, but the customer will still be responsible for paying for any network resources used up to the point of suspension or cancellation.
