      Note: Pornography and sex-related merchandising are prohibited on all servers. This includes sites that may infer sexual content, or that link to adult content elsewhere. This is also applicable to sites that promote any illegal activity or content which may be damaging to our servers or any other server on the Internet. Links to such materials are also prohibited.

      In addition, any site selling or promoting bulk e-mail services is not allowed.

    Traffic Guidelines

      The following excess traffic prices do NOT apply to our Dedicated Server clients. Dedicated Server solutions include 25 GB bandwidth per month. Additional bandwidth may be purchased in 25 GB increments for a monthly fee of US$ 125 per increment.

    There will be an additional charge on all excess traffic. You will be notified ahead of time if it looks like you are going to exceed your limit. The fee for extra bandwidth is US$ 6/GB.

    CGI Scripts

      Each account comes with its own CGI-bin. You are free to use any CGI scripts you wish; however, we reserve the right to disable any CGI script that affects normal server operation.

    Chat Rooms

      We do not allow clients to install their own chat rooms. These tend to be large system hogs. All of our Linux web hosting packages include 25 java chat rooms.

    Background Running Programs

      We will allow some programs to run continuously in the background. These are considered on an individual basis, and an extra charge will be incurred based on system resources used and operational maintenance needed.

    IRC

      We currently do not allow IRC or IRC Bots to be operated on our servers.

    Commercial Advertising - E-mail

      Our servers may not be the source, intermediary, or destination address involved in the transmission of "spam", "flames", or "mail bombs". Your domain may not be referenced as originator, intermediary, or reply-to address in any of the above. We consider spam any mass unsolicited message in the mediums of Newsgroups and E-mail. If you are found to have spammed, then we will immediately, without warning, disable your domain. In addition, we will impose a US$ 150 penalty for each spam policy violation. We reserve the right to refuse or cancel service to known spammers. Finally, we reserve the right to determine what violates this policy.

      As such, any violation will result in immediate deactivation of services without refund.

The purpose of collecting this information is to help Tuffy Enterprizes create sites which better match the requirements of its visitors.

      When purchasing a product or service, Tuffy Enterprizes collects personal information such as a customer's name, phone number, e-mail address, billing address and credit card number. The purpose of collecting this information is to enable Tuffy Enterprizes to bill its clients and track sales in a quick and efficient manner. Such information is stored off-line.

      When account holders login to their accounts via the Web Control Panel, cookies in addition to password protection and other measures are employed to maintain the security of accounts. All accesses (via Web Control, Telnet, ftp) are also logged to ensure security of the systems.

    • With whom is information shared?

      Credit Card Processing and Security - Tuffy Enterprizes uses the latest encryption technology to keep your personal information safe.
