(1) Shared Hosting AUP

Customers may not initiate any of the following; if any customer does, LinuxFox reserves the right to suspend or terminate the account.

Please note that these are soft limits and not always enforced. If, however, your account starts to affect the overall performance of the server, then we do need to have restrictions and policies in place. If an account is found to violate this, we will do our best to work with the client to give a 48-hour notice or no notice at all depending on the severity of the violation. We reserve the right to suspend an account and offer alternatives if it causes a severe problem to other accounts hosted on the server.
