Unlimited Traffic/Hits & Server Resource Usage: By Net World Inc is pleased to offer our clients unlimited traffic/hits, and server usage. Unlimited Traffic/Hits refers to the number of visitors to your website, NOT the amount of bandwidth/data transfer. Your account is still limited to the alotted bandwidth/data transfer included with your selected package. To maintain the integrity of our service the following traffic/usage limitations apply.
- Sites with banners, graphics or cgi's running from their domain being used on other domains.
- Sites with immense graphic archives or galleries.
- Sites offering immense download archives, such as .zip, .tar, .ra and .GZ.
- Sites running large chat room gatherings.
- Sites using more than 20% of system resources
If you do not qualify for unlimited traffic/hits, your account may be required to be upgraded, or, By Net World Inc may move your site to a different server, to reduce the load on the server you are currently residing... By Net World Inc will be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes a violation of usage limitations. Bandwidth/data transfer will go unmonitored until you reach your account limit, then normal over-usage data transfer costs will apply. At any time By Net World Inc may move your site to a different server, to reduce the load on the server you are currently residing...
Chat Rooms: By Net World Inc does allow clients to install their own chat rooms. However, these tend to be large system hogs and may fall into the usage limitations clause. We do provide a html based cgi chatroom that runs without hindering the performance of the machine for others. You are free to run your own chat script, as long as it does not hinder server performance.
Background Processes/Programs: By Net World Inc may allow programs to run continually in the background, these are considered on a one to one basis and a extra charge may be incured based on system resources used and operational maintenance needed.
Cron Jobs: By Net World does allow Cron Jobs to be conducted on our servers.
IRC: By Net World currently does not allow IRC or IRC bots to be operated on our servers.
Multiple Connections: Multiple telnet and ftp sessions are allowed, on a single hosting account.
Idle Timeouts: By Net World Inc may disconnect any idle connection to the network.
Average timeouts are: FTP - 300 seconds, and Telnet - 2 hours
Commercial Advertising - Email: Spamming, or the sending of unsolicited email, from a By Net World Inc. server or using an email address that is maintained on a By Net World Inc. machine is STRICTLY prohibited. For general reference, we consider spam any email that is sent to more than 10 people at a time that did not ask for it to be sent to them.
By Net World Inc. will be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes a violation of this provision. Opt-In email is acceptiable, as long as Opt-Out/Removal request are fully honored. Please make an effort to limit outgoing mail on your account to no more than 5000 pieces per DAY and no more than 20 pieces per minute. Many times we have seen sites push over 1000 emails in one hit, this causes extreme server loads and prevents other people from accessing server services. Large mailings are preferred to be sent from the hours of 12AM - 8AM EST. Sites with large mailing databases, need to be placed on dedicated server or VPS platform.
Server Abuse: Any attempts to undermine or cause harm to a By Net World Inc. server or customer of By Net World Inc. is strictly prohibited. By Net World Inc. will pursue legal action to the fullest extent for all abuse of the By Net World Inc. Network.

By Net World Inc reserves the right to remove any account without prior notice. If By Net World Inc deactivates your account(s) for violating policy, your will forfeit your rights to a refund...and none will be given. No refunds for advance payments, on de-activated accounts. Normal policy is a warning first, and account de-activation the second offense. Serious offenses may cause immediate de-activation.
