This AUP governs the use of BizeeInternet’s web hosting service. Violation of this AUP may result in suspension or termination of your service. In the event of a dispute between you and BizeeInternet regarding the interpretation of this AUP, BizeeInternet’s interpretation, in its reasonable commercial judgment, shall govern.

The following is the entire Acceptable User Policy (‘AUP’) agreement between BizeeInternet and the personal or corporate account holder. BizeeInternet provides World Wide Web Hosting, web design and script installation. BizeeInternet has certain legal and ethical responsibilities consisting with the use of its servers and equipment involved in these services. BizeeInternet’s general policy is to act as a provider of Internet presence. BizeeInternet reserves the rights to suspend or cancel a customer’s access to any or all services provided by BizeeInternet when we decide that the account has been inappropriately used.

BizeeInternet is designed to serve the web hosting needs of small, independently owned and operated businesses in a single country. It is not appropriate to use our services to support large enterprises or internationally based businesses with a sustained demand that places undue burden on our systems or negatively impacts use by small, independently owned and operated businesses.

BizeeInternet is a shared web hosting service, which means that a number of customers’ web sites and other email or storage services are hosted from the same server. BizeeInternet uses abuse controls to help ensure that use of our services does not adversely affect the performance of our system or other customers’ sites. It is not appropriate to use an account primarily as an online storage space or for archiving electronic files.

If you use your services consistently with the terms of Service and these paragraphs, your site can grow as large as necessary to meet your small business needs, but to ensure a great experience for all, we will place some constraints on how fast you can grow. The vast majority of our customers’ sites grow at rates well within our rules, but our abuse controls may cause a brief delay while we evaluate if expansion is appropriate for your particular plan.

BizeeInternet Customers may not initiate the following (below), if any customer does BizeeInternet may terminate the account with no refund. Depending on the situation there will/won’t be warnings sent.
a) Use 25% or more of system CPU resources for longer then 90 seconds or 1% of the servers CPU resources for longer than 5 minutes. There are numerous activities that could cause such problems; these include: CGI scripts, FTP, PHP, HTTP, etc.
b) Use of any kind of distributed computing software, including but not limited to SETI@home, Node Zero and Folding@home.
c) Run any type of interactive real-time chat applications that require server resources. Remotely-hosted services are fully allowed.
d) Run stand-alone, unattended server-side processes at any point in time on the server. This includes any and all daemons.
e) Run any software that interfaces with an IRC (Internet Relay Chat) network.
f) Run any file sharing, bit torrent or other P2P network services, client or server software.
g) Run any gaming servers such as counter-strike, half-life, battlefield 1492 etc

In most cases, if you use our services consistently with our terms of Service, visitors to your web site will be able to download and view as much content from your site as they like. However, in certain circumstances, our server processing power, server memory, or abuse controls could limit downloads from your site. You will always be able to use as much bandwidth as your account has. For example our Enterprise Plan comes with 40GB bandwidth which is a huge amount, all of this 40GB can be used. Bandwidth is also reset every month.

You are allocated a monthly bandwidth allowance. This allowance varies depending on the hosting package you purchase. Should your account pass the allocated amount we reserve the right to suspend the account until the start of the next allocation, suspend the account until more bandwidth is purchased at an additional fee, suspend the account until you upgrade to a higher level of package, terminate the account and/or charge you an additional fee for the overages. Unused transfer in one month cannot be carried over to the next month.

You do not have to worry about hitting a storage limit if you use our services consistently with the terms of Service and our acceptable usage policy. BizeeInternet will increase your space along with your appropriate small business needs, but our abuse controls may impact the rate of growth or your folder size, and there may be a short delay while we assess your usage. In some cases, creating additional folders or subfolders will help ensure that the system works well for everyone. You will always be allowed to use as much disk space is applied to your account.

You may have noticed that our packages do NOT come with unlimited email accounts, sub-domains, FTP accounts and domains. Rather than promising unlimited packages with secret hidden limitations we like to be upfront with what we offer. Our packages have been tested to ensure that they are more than sufficient to meet usage expectatons. If you need more storage or features, simply contact a member of our team and we will be happy to assist you further.
