Eideashop has specific ethical concerns regarding the use of its

Unauthorized use of other people's accounts or computers Eideashop

Any unauthorized use of accounts or computers by a Eideashop customer,
whether or not the attacked account or computer belongs to Eideashop,
will result in action against the attacker. Possible actions include
warnings, account suspension or cancellation, and civil or criminal
legal action, depending on the seriousness of the attack.

or deny access to anyone who violates our Policies or the terms
and conditions shown below WITHOUT WARNING OR PRIOR NOTICE.
No refunds of fees paid will be made if account termination is due
to violation of the terms outlined below.
Customers
may not run IRC, bots or clients. Unacceptable uses also include,
but are NOT limited to: Bulk emailing, unsolicited emailings, newsgroup
spamming, pornographic content, illegal content, copyright infringement,
trademark infringement, warez, cracks, software serial numbers,
and/or anything else determined by Eideashop to be unacceptable
use of Eideashop's services including abuse of server resources.
Accounts

blatant expressions of bigotry, racism, hatred, or profanity

of copyright infringement including offering pirated computer
programs or links to such programs, information used to circumvent
manufacturer-installed copy-protect devices, including serial

Unsolicited
E-mail (Spam)
Unsolicited commercial advertisements are not allowed in e-mail,
and will likely result in account suspension or cancellation. Commercial
advertisements are unwelcome in most Usenet discussion groups and
on most e-mail mailing lists. Inappropriate posting may result in
account suspension or cancellation. See the newsgroup or mailing
list's charter for whether advertising is allowed or not. "Spamming,"
or sending a message to many different off-topic newsgroups, is
particularly unethical and will be treated as such. Sending a message,
especially an advertisement, to more than five or six recipients,
is by itself spamming unless the individuals have specifically requested
to be added to a mailing list on that topic. E-mail is a person-to-person
medium, not a broadcast medium. Upon your first Spam offense your
mail will be disabled for 72 hours. Upon your second Spam offense
your entire domain will be disabled for 72 hours and you will be
fined $100.00 per sent Spam. Upon your third offense your account
with Eideashop will be terminated, you will be fined $200.00 per
sent Spam. No refunds will be given if your account is terminated
for Spam.

CGI Scripts
Each account comes with its own cgi-bin. You are free to use any CGI
scripts you wish, however we reserve the right to disable any CGI
script that effects normal server operation without prior warning.
Chat Rooms
We do not allow clients to install their own chat rooms, without approving
it with the Eideashop Support Team. Most chat rooms tend to be large
system hogs and we cannot allow it as an account option.
Background Running Programs
We may allow programs to run continually in the background. These
are considered on a one-to-one basis and an extra 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.

All accounts are set up on a prepay basis. Setup fees are charged
for all new accounts and major account changes and are nonrefundable.
All pricing is guaranteed for the term of prepayment. Eideashop reserves
the right to change prices at any time, unless other terms have been
agreed upon. Any account not brought current within a week (7 days)
of e-mail notice or exceeding this time frame in any way is subject
to suspension. The customer is responsible for all money owed on the
account from the time it was established to the time that the customer
notifies Eideashop at sales@eideashop.com to request for termination
of services. All payment is in U.S. Currency. Eideashop will bill
each client $50 per returned check and $50 per wire transfer received.
Cancellation
Eideashop reserves the right to cancel service at any time. All fees
paid in advance of cancellation will be prorated and paid by Eideashop
if Eideashop institutes it's right of cancellation. Any violation
of policies which results in extra costs will be billed to the customer
(i.e. transfer, space etc.)
All of Eideashop's web hosting plans are backed by a 30 day money
back guarantee. If you are not completely satisfied with our services
or support within the first 30 days of your contract, you will be
given a full refund of the contract amount excluding setup fees and
overages. Setup fees are refundable only if the account order is canceled
prior to activation. For web hosting contracts of 3 months or less,
the full contract amount less any setup fees and overages will be
refunded if Eideashop is notified within the first 30 days following
activation. No refund is available after the 30th day. This policy
does not apply to any additional services such as overages, referrer
logs, real audio/video, additional disk space, additional pop accounts,
etc. Due to security concerns, phone or e-mail requests will not constitute
acceptance of any cancellation until they are validated by an Eideashop
representative. Refunds will be made by company check or issued back
to your credit card within 30 days of receipt of cancellation.
Lawful Purpose
Eideashop reserves the right to refuse service to anyone. Customers
may only use Eideashop server for lawful purpose. Transmission of

is prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to copyrighted material,
