Acceptable Use Policy
General Summary
The following Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) will set forth general and specific information in regards to the use of ComfortHost.NET infrastructure. Infrastructure in this regard will consist of, but not be limited to, bandwidth, transport, servers, switches, IP address and any other equipment that will transmit, receive or otherwise be a vehicle of transmission of data of any sort. Further set forth in this document will be information about general acceptable and unacceptable use. It is the duty of all users of ComfortHost.NET offerings to read and thoroughly understand the information set forth in this document. We explicitly reserve the right to enforce this document and further reserve the right to add to, update, change, modify or otherwise deem at any given time, conduct unbecoming and act as we see fit.
Use Prohibited:
Child Pornography - Child Erotica
Federal child exploitation statutes set forth the illegality of possession, production, reception, transport or distribution of any sexually explicit depiction of children. Any user found to commit this type of abuse will have service suspended immediately until remedy or face service termination. Repeat offenders will be promptly terminated.
Illegal Use
Users may not transmit, retransmit or store materials in violation of any federal, state or local laws or regulations. Users may not abuse or fraudulently use products or services offered by ComfortHost.NET nor allow/permit such use by clients or third parties. This includes but is not limited to trademark infringement, defamation, indecency or obscenity.
Un-ethical Use
Mis-behaviour, use of software that harms other users either by overusing shared resources to a level where other clients are negatively impacted may lead to suspension of service: Typical cases of these are bitcoing mining, torrent servers, bots and spiders. Streaming, video, proxy sites may be allowed, with restrictions (e.g password protect proxies and ensure that streaming is ratelimited so that it does not peak to the total bandwidth, negatively impacting the rest of users). It is advised to ask beforehand on our helpdesk. Using or publishing contents that generate an ethical conflict with any other customer or legal organization, will be evaluated by Comforthost.NET management and could lead to suspension of service. An example are piramidal schemas, linking or pingback systems or SEO bots accessing other systems.
Network Filtering/Blocking
Users in violation of any provision set forth in this document may have content or traffic blocked or filtered as a remedy of abuse. Notification of such filtering/blocking likely will be sent to the user, however there is no guarantee that such notification will be sent. Filtering/blocking may be manual or automatic depending on the nature of the offense.
Adult Content Hosting (Pornography)
ComfortHost.NET believes in a clean business environment, as such, users are prohibited to store, forward, relay, produce, or engage in any form of pornography. If you are unsure about your site content, please contact ComfortHost.NET through your Client Control Panel (http://panel.comforthost.net/)
Email - READ CAREFULLY
The sending of bulk mail is ONLY permitted AFTER Confirmed Opt-In has been verified by the Abuse Department. Starting such a mail campaign without the approval of ComfortHost.NET’s Abuse Department will result in service suspension until verification and approval has been made. Complaints generated in regards to bulk mail are immediately deemed as proof that the recipient did not request such emails and therefore is considered abuse. Prohibited:
Users must configure any email server in such a way that it will not accept third party emails for forwarding such as an open relay. SMTP servers must be configured in such a way that any user must authenticate to send email. ComfortHost.NET’s Abuse Desk will not send/forward complaints to users for the purposes of listwashing. Should a user have received permission from ComfortHost.NET’s Abuse Desk to run a true "Confirmed Opt-in" campaign, complaints will be handled in such a fashion that the sender may remove the recipient from their list after they have proven to the Abuse Desk that the user did opt-in. Any approved campaign found to be operating using third party "bought" lists where opt-in confirmation cannot provided, service will be suspended. Further, time stamps and IP addresses in a database with a recipient's mail address WILL NOT suffice as sufficient proof of Confirmed Opt-in. We will need to inspect the confirmation emails' headers to make sure @aol came from aol servers, etc. Recording a time stamp, email address and IP address is not Confirmed Opt-in.
DMCA -17 USC §512 "DMCA"
Violations of 17 USC §512 "DMCA" will be promptly handled by ComfortHost.NET by means of notification. After receiving notification of DMCA violation(s), ComfortHost.NET will act promptly to notify the infringer of the identified infringement. Should a user of ComfortHost.NET not respond to the notice of our Abuse Desk, the infringed material will be blocked, filtered or otherwise be suspended until the user complies. Notice of infringement should be sent to abuse [at] comforhost.net
