5. Email Rules

Without exception, Web By SmartSimple decries the practice of mass mailing unwanted email of any type, regardless of content, and we will do everything within our power to reduce the flood of this type of traffic across the Internet.

Web By SmartSimple prohibits the use of our systems in any manner associated with the transmission, distribution, or delivery of spam. Any email user who sends spam may have their account disabled and be disallowed further service.

If we believe that it is warranted, Web By SmartSimple have the option to immediately disable any account in order to prevent further abuse or damage to email systems. Should this occur, the user shall be notified as soon as possible.

Spam sent from other networks which references a email user shall be treated as if it originated from the account referenced, unless there is sufficient reason to believe that the message truly originated with some unrelated party.

Postings made to Usenet newsgroups or other online forums, such as blogs which reference email users, and are deemed to be inappropriate according to the local ethical standards of those forums, may be treated in the same manner as spam.

Web By SmartSimple does not support outbound mass mailing as a standard offering. As standard practice we limit users from sending mail to a large number of recipients in a 24 hour period. This limit is restrictive on the first day of usage, and becomes more lenient over time. Users who reach this limit will experience error messages such as “Daily maximum exceeded”. This limit is subject to change without notice, should our service be compromised. In order to protect our resellers we do not publish the numeric limit publicly.

Web By SmartSimple prohibits the posting, storing, transmitting, or disseminating of any information or software that contains a virus, trojan horse, worm, defect, or any other harmful, contaminating, or disruptive components. Web By SmartSimple reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to lock any account this is found to be in violation of this policy.

Services offered may only be used for lawful purposes. Transmission, distribution, or storage of any information, data or material that is in violation of federal or state regulation or law, or by common law, is prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to, material protected by copyright, trademark, trade secret, or any other statute.

Web By SmartSimple reserves the right to cooperate with law enforcement and other legal authorities in investigating claims of illegal activity.

6. Subscription Fees, Payments and Refunds

Once the website is created on Web By SmartSimple and published the user will be prompted to accept the payment of Fees.

All Fees are exclusive of all taxes, levies, or duties imposed by taxing authorities, and you shall be responsible for payment of all such taxes, levies, or duties. You agree to pay for any such taxes that might be applicable to your use of the Service and payments made by you herein.
