User-Supplied
Content
All services may be used for lawful purposes only. Through
Tough Domains' Service, you may have access to chat areas,
bulletin boards, web pages, email, or other services that
enable you to send or post materials ("content")
and make that content available to others. You must not submit,
publish, or display on the Network any defamatory, inaccurate,
abusive, obscene, infringing, or threatening content. In addition,
you may not submit, publish, or display any content that violates
any US Federal, State, or Local Hong Kong law. You are solely
responsible for the content you make accessible through the
Tough Domains Network. You may not use the Service to assist
any other person or entity to violate any Federal, State,
or Local Hong Kong laws, ordinances, or regulations.
Tough
Domains is not obligated to monitor the network to examine
available content. You hereby acknowledge that if we are made
aware of content that is determined to be, in its sole discretion,
unacceptable, undesirable, offensive, indecent, obscene, excessively
violent or otherwise objectionable, Tough Domains has the
right, but not the obligation, to edit, remove or deny access
to such content. Tough Domains may disclose any content or
records concerning customer's account as required to satisfy
any law, regulation, governmental request or court order.
Pornography
and sex-related merchandising are prohibited on all Tough
Domains' servers. This includes sites that may infer sexual
content, display nudity, or link to adult content elsewhere.
This is also true for sites that promote any illegal activity
or content that may be damaging to Tough Domains' servers
or any other server on the Internet. Links to such materials
are also prohibited. In addition, any site selling or promoting
bulk email service is not allowed. Below are some examples
of non-acceptable content or links:
Adult
Sites - Any erotic or pornographic material, links to adult
sites, or advertisements for adult sites.
Pirated Software (Warez) - Any software that is copyrighted
and not freely available for distribution without cost; i.e.
ROMs, ROM Emulators and MPEG Layer 3 files (MP3).
Copyright Violations - Violation of copyrights held by individuals
and corporations or other entities can result in civil and
criminal liability for the infringer.
Hacking/Phreaking - Includes sites with material, links, or
resources for hacking, phreaking, viruses, anarchy, or any
type of site that promotes or participates in willful harm
to Internet sites or providers.
Network
Security
Customers may not use the Tough Domains Network with an attempt
to circumvent user authentication or security of any host,
network, or account. This includes, but is not limited to,
accessing data not intended for the customer, logging into
a server or account the customer is not expressly authorized
to access, password cracking, probing the security of other
networks in search of weakness, or violation of any other
organization's security policy. Customers may not attempt
to interfere or deny service to any user, host, or network.
This includes, but is not limited to, flooding, mail bombing,
or other deliberate attempts to overload or crash a host or
network. Tough Domains will cooperate fully with investigations
of violations of systems or network security at other sites,
including cooperating with law enforcement authorities in
the investigation of suspected criminal violations. Users
who violate system or network security may incur criminal
or civil liability.
CGI Scripts
Each Tough Domains account comes fully equipped with installers
for pre-configured CGI scripts. CGI-scripts deemed to be adversely
affecting the server performance or the network integrity
may be shut down without prior notice. CGI-script sharing
with domains not hosted by Tough Domains is not allowed.
Chat
Rooms
Tough Domains prohibits its customers from installing outside
chat rooms on their domain, as these tend to be a resource
problem.
Server
Resources
Any web site that uses a high amount of server resources (such
as, but not limited to CPU time, memory usage, and network
resources) will be given an option of either upgrading their
service level or reducing the resource used to an acceptable
level.
IRC
Tough Domains currently prohibits its customers from operating
IRC or IRC Bots on any of the servers in the Tough Domains
Network.
Commercial
Advertising/ Mass Mailings
You must not use the Tough Domains Network, Tough Domains
equipment or any Tough Domains email address in connection
with the transmission of spam, flames, mail bombs, or substantially
similar, unsolicited email messages. Your domain may not be
referenced as originator, intermediary, or reply-to address
in any of the above. This prohibition extends to the sending
of unsolicited mass mailings from another service that in
any way implicates the use of the Tough Domains Network, Tough
Domains equipment or any Tough Domains email address. A message
is considered unsolicited if it is posted in violation of
a newsgroup charter or if it is sent to a recipient who has
not requested or invited the message. For purposes of this
provision, merely making one's email address accessible to
the public will not constitute a request or invitation to
receive messages.
If
you are found to have spammed, without warning, Tough Domains
reserves the right to disable your domain. In addition, Tough
Domains may impose a HK$1000 penalty for each spam policy
violation. Tough Domains solely reserves the right to refuse
or cancel service to known spammers. Lastly, Tough Domains
reserves the right to determine what violates this policy.
As such, any violation may result in cancellation of services
without refund.
Distribution
and/or Transmission of Obscene or Indecent Speech or Materials
Violation of indecency and obscenity laws can result in criminal
penalties.
Intellectual
Property Rights
Material accessible to you through Tough Domains' Services
may be subject to protection under the United States, Hong
Kong or other copyright laws, or laws protecting trademarks,
trade secrets or proprietary information. Except when expressly
permitted by the owner of such rights, you must not use the
Tough Domains Service in a manner that would infringe, violate,
dilute or misappropriate any such rights, with respect to
any material, which you access or receive through the Tough
Domains Network. If you use a domain name in connection with
the Tough Domains Service or similar service, you must not
use that domain name in violation of any trademark, service
mark, or similar rights of any third party.
Defamation
Defamatory speech distributed over the Internet can result
in civil liability for the defamer.
Refusal
of Service
Tough Domains reserves the right at its sole discretion to
refuse or cancel service. Violation of any of Tough Domains'
Rules and Regulations could result in a warning, suspension,
or possible account termination. Accounts terminated due to
policy violations will not be refunded.
Indemnification
Customer agrees that it will protect, indemnify, save and
hold Tough Domains harmless from any and all stipulations,
liabilities, losses, expenses and claims, as well as reasonable
attorney's fees assessed against Tough Domains, its agents,
customers, officers, employees and administration that may
arise or result from any service provided or performed or
agreed to be performed or any product sold by it's customers,
agents, employees or assigns. Customer agrees to defend, indemnify
and hold Tough Domains harmless against liabilities arising
out of; (1) any injury to person or property caused by any
products sold or distributed in association with Tough Domains'
Services; (2) any material furnished by customer infringing
or allegedly infringing on the proprietary rights of a third

Disclaimer
Tough Domains will not be responsible for any damages your
business may suffer. Tough Domains makes no warranties of
any kind, expressed or implied for services we provide. Tough
Domains disclaims any warranty or merchantability or fitness
for a particular purpose. This includes loss of data resulting
from delays, non-deliveries, wrong delivery, and any and all
service interruptions caused by Tough Domains and its employees.
Tough Domains reserves the right to amend or update these
policies without notice. Failure to follow any terms and conditions
may result in account deactivation.
Tough
Domains furthermore expects that its customers will fully
comply with all applicable laws concerning the privacy of
online communications. A customer's failure to comply with
those laws will violate this policy. Finally, Tough Domains
wishes to emphasize that in accepting services, customers
indemnify Tough Domains for the violation of any law or Tough
Domains policy, that results in loss to Tough Domains or the
bringing of any claim against Tough Domains. This means that
if Tough Domains is sued because of activities of the customer
that violate any law, or this policy, the customer will pay
any damages awarded against Tough Domains, plus costs and
reasonable legal fees.
Security
and Privacy
Tough Domains
uses industry standard Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption.
As a result of the SSL-based encryption, your card card information
is ALWAYS secure during transmission.
A
visual means of confirming this is for you to watch the small
lock or key icon in your browser. While on any page where
financial information is to be entered, this icon will change
to a locked padlock state, denoting a secure page.
Additionally,
our fulfillment system is not connected to the Internet and
is not accessible in any way, which keeps your information
secure once it reaches us.
