Use Policy & Terms of Service

Your Impressions Hosting (referred to hereafter as "we" or "us") has a responsibility to ensure that each of our clients is provided with the best services we have available. While we back up files continuously, we are in no way responsible for the archiving of a site. It is the sole responsibility of the site creator to copy, back-up or archive all files that constitute a web site.
The following guidelines also apply:

All services provided by us may be used for lawful purposes only. Transmission, storage, or presentation of any information, data, or material in violation of any United States Federal, Nevada or Texas State, or Local law is prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to copyrighted material, material we judge to be threatening or obscene or material protected by trade secret and other statute. The subscriber agrees to indemnify and hold us harmless from any claims resulting from the use of the service, which damages the subscriber or any other party.

Pornography and sex-related merchandising is prohibited on all of our servers. This includes sites that may infer sexual content or links to adult content elsewhere. We will be the sole arbiter in determining violations of this provision.

Also prohibited are sites that promote any illegal activity or present content that may be damaging to our servers or any other server on the Internet. Links to such materials are also prohibited.

Examples of unacceptable content or links:
- Offshore gaming
- Pirated software
- Hacker programs or archives
- Warez sites
We will be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes a violation of this provision.

Commercial Advertising - Email
Spamming, or the sending of unsolicited email, from any of our servers or using an email address or domain that is maintained on our servers as reference is STRICTLY prohibited. We will be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes a violation of this provision.

Chat Rooms and Forums
We do not allow clients to install their own chat rooms or forums. These tend to be a large drain on system resources and we cannot allow it as an account option. You may, however, run any pre-installed programs from the control panel.

Background Running Programs
We may allow programs to run continually in the background. These are considered on a case-by-case basis and an additional 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.

Domain Pointing
Domain pointers are to be used for the purpose of having more than one way to find the same site, not for the purposes of sharing an account among multiple sites. A domain pointer may not be set up to reference a subdirectory within an existing Web hosting account served by us or any other provider. Contact us if you need to park additional domains.

Server Abuse:
Any attempt to undermine or cause harm to a server or customer of ours is strictly prohibited, and will result in immediate termination or prosecution.

Refusal of Service:
We reserve the right to refuse, cancel, or suspend service to anyone at our sole discretion.

Billing Problems and Termination:
Accounts paid by credit card which are rejected or declined by our online card processor, are grounds for termination. Because of the risk of credit card fraud, any account holder who offers two denied/declined transactions will be subject to immediate termination.

Non-Payment: We invoice our clients, who prepay annually by check, 2-3 weeks in advance by email. It is the client's responsibility to notify us of any email address changes. Insufficient funds checks returned by your bank incur a $45.00 fee. NSF checks will not be re-deposited. Your account will be temporarily placed on hold for 15 days maximum and restored after guaranteed funds (cashier's check or money order) have cleared our bank.

Accounts that are not paid by the due date are subject to immediate termination on the day following the due date at or after 00:01am ET. Reactivation is possible within 10 days immediately following the disconnect and after a prepaid reconnect fee of $150.00 and additionally prepayment for a minimum of 1 quarter (3 months) is received. If the account lapses again at any time for any reason during the next 6 months, it will be terminated permanently upon 24 hour notice. We reserve the right to refuse any reactivation at our sole discretion.To reactivate your account please contact us.

Closing an Account:
We will not process any cancellation request(s) until we can verify ownership.
All canceled accounts are subject to a $25 cancellation fee.
