Terms of Service
As a provider of Internet access, web site hosting, and other Internet-related services,
WhenYouHost Hosting offers its customers (also known as subscribers), and their
customers and users, the means to acquire and disseminate a wealth of public, private,
commercial, and non-commercial information. WhenYouHost Hosting respects that the
Internet provides a forum for free and open discussion and dissemination of information,
however, when there are competing interests at issue; WhenYouHost Hosting reserves
the right to take certain preventative or corrective actions. In order to protect
these competing interests, WhenYouHost Hosting has developed an Acceptable Use Policy
("AUP"), which supplements and explains certain terms of each customer's respective
service agreement and is intended as a guide to the customer's rights and obligations
when utilizing WhenYouHost Hosting's services. This AUP will be revised from time
to time. A customer's use of WhenYouHost Hosting's services after changes to the
AUP are posted on WhenYouHost Hosting's web site, www.whenyouhost.com , will constitute
the customer's acceptance of any new or additional terms of the AUP that result
from those changes. WhenYouHost Hosting reserves the right to amend, change, or
modify Terms of Service without notifying the customers. One important aspect of
the Internet is that no one party owns or controls it. This fact accounts for much
of the Internet's openness and value, but it also places a high premium on the judgment
and responsibility of those who use the Internet, both in the information they acquire
and in the information they disseminate to others. When subscribers obtain information
through the Internet, they must keep in mind that WhenYouHost Hosting cannot monitor,
verify, warrant, or vouch for the accuracy and quality of the information that subscribers
may acquire. For this reason, the subscriber must exercise his or her best judgment
in relying on information obtained from the Internet, and also should be aware that
some material posted to the Internet is sexually explicit or otherwise offensive.
Because WhenYouHost Hosting cannot monitor or censor the Internet, and will not
attempt to do so, WhenYouHost Hosting cannot accept any responsibility for injury
to its subscribers that results from inaccurate, unsuitable, offensive, or illegal
Internet communications. When subscribers disseminate information through the Internet,
they also must keep in mind that WhenYouHost Hosting does not review, edit, censor,
or take responsibility for any information its subscribers may create. When users
place information on the Internet, they have the same liability as other authors
for copyright infringement, defamation, and other harmful speech. Also, because
the information they create is carried over WhenYouHost Hosting's network and may
reach a large number of people, including both subscribers and non-subscribers of
WhenYouHost Hosting, subscribers' postings to the Internet may affect other subscribers
and may harm WhenYouHost Hosting's goodwill, business reputation, and operations.
For these reasons, subscribers violate WhenYouHost Hosting policy and the service
agreement when they, their customers, affiliates, or subsidiaries engage in the
following prohibited activities:
Spamming -- Sending unsolicited bulk and/or commercial messages over the
Internet (known as "spamming"). It is not only harmful because of its negative impact
on consumer attitudes toward WhenYouHost Hosting, but also because it can overload
WhenYouHost Hosting's network and disrupt service to WhenYouHost Hosting subscribers.
Also, maintaining an open SMTP relay is prohibited. When a complaint is received,
WhenYouHost Hosting has the discretion to determine from all of the evidence whether
the email recipients were from an "opt-in" email list. Customers engaging in spam,
while operating an open SMTP relay will have their accounts terminated and all moneys
forfeited.
Intellectual Property Violations -- Engaging in any activity that infringes
or misappropriates the intellectual property rights of others, including copyrights,
trademarks, service marks, trade secrets, software piracy, and patents held by individuals,
corporations, or other entities. Also, engaging in activity that violates privacy,
publicity, or other personal rights of others. WhenYouHost Hosting is required by
law to remove or block access to customer content upon receipt of a proper notice
of copyright infringement. It is also WhenYouHost Hosting's policy to terminate
the privileges of customers who commit repeat violations of copyright laws.

transmit, store, post, display, or otherwise make available child pornography or
obscene speech or material. WhenYouHost Hosting is required by law to notify law

system (often known as "hacking"). Also, any activity that might be used as a precursor
to an attempted system penetration (i.e. port scan, stealth scan, or other information
gathering activity).
Distribution of Internet Viruses, Worms, Trojan Horses, or Other Destructive Activities
-- Distributing information regarding the creation of and sending Internet viruses,
worms, Trojan horses, pinging, flooding, mail bombing, or denial of service attacks.
Also, activities that disrupt the use of or interfere with the ability of others
to effectively use the network or any connected network, system, service, or equipment.

be illegal, including advertising, transmitting, or otherwise making available ponzi

Other Activities -- Engaging in activities, whether lawful or unlawful, that
WhenYouHost Hosting determines to be harmful to its subscribers, operations, reputation,
goodwill, or customer relations. As we have pointed out, the responsibility for
avoiding the harmful activities just described rests primarily with the subscriber.
WhenYouHost Hosting will not, as an ordinary practice, monitor the communications
of its subscribers to ensure that they comply with WhenYouHost Hosting policy or
applicable law. When WhenYouHost Hosting becomes aware of harmful activities, however,
it may take any action to stop the harmful activity, including but not limited to,
removing information, shutting down a web site, implementing screening software
designed to block offending transmissions, denying access to the Internet, or take
any other action it deems appropriate. Any material posted on WhenYouHost Hosting
servers must be legal in the Netherlands. Some material is illegal in some nations,
but may be legal in the Netherlands. If a customer chooses to host Adult content
on any shared servers, his account will be terminated, and he agrees to be billed
a SGD $500.00 clean up fee to his registered credit card.This is the responsibility
of the customer to research thoroughly. If WhenYouHost Hosting - Security receives
an order to provide information about a customer to a law enforcement authority,
we will provide that information. WhenYouHost Hosting will absolutely not be held

no custom restore requests can be guaranteed to be processed. Customer is responsible
for their own backups. WhenYouHost Hosting holds absolutely no liability to any
customer for any data stored on WhenYouHost Hosting servers. WhenYouHost Hosting
also is aware that many of its subscribers are, themselves, providers of Internet
services, and that information reaching WhenYouHost Hosting's facilities from those
subscribers may have originated from a customer of the subscriber or from another
third-party. WhenYouHost Hosting does not require its subscribers who offer Internet
services to monitor or censor transmissions or web sites created by customers of
its subscribers. WhenYouHost Hosting has the right to directly take action against
a customer of a subscriber. Also, WhenYouHost Hosting may take action against the
WhenYouHost Hosting subscriber because of activities of a customer of the subscriber,
even though the action may affect other customers of the subscriber. Similarly,
WhenYouHost Hosting anticipates that subscribers who offer Internet services will
cooperate with WhenYouHost Hosting in any corrective or preventive action that WhenYouHost
Hosting deems necessary. Failure to cooperate with such corrective or preventive
measures is a violation of WhenYouHost Hosting policy. WhenYouHost Hosting also
is concerned with the privacy of on-line communications and web sites. In general,
the Internet is neither more nor less secure than other means of communication,
including mail, facsimile, and voice telephone service, all of which can be intercepted
and otherwise compromised. As a matter of prudence, however, WhenYouHost Hosting
urges its subscribers to assume that all of their on-line communications are insecure.
