Server Abuse

Any attempt to undermine or cause harm to a server, or customer, of QualiSpace is strictly prohibited.

Unauthorized use of other people’s accounts or computers QualiSpace will strongly react to any use or attempted use of an Internet account or computer without the owner’s authorization. Such attempts include “Internet scamming” (tricking other people into releasing their passwords), password robbery, security hole scanning etc.

Any unauthorized use of accounts or computers by a QualiSpace customer, whether or not the attacked account or computer belongs to QualiSpace, 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.

IMPORTANT NOTE – QualiSpace has the right to discontinue service, or deny access to anyone who violates our Policies or the terms and conditions shown below WITHOUT WARNING OR PRIOR NOTICE. No refunds or fees paid will be made if account termination is due to violation of any AUP term.

Customers may not run IRC, bots or clients on shared servers. Unacceptable uses also include, but are NOT limited to: Bulk emailing, unsolicited emailing, newsgroup spamming, child pornography, illegal content, copyright infringement, trademark infringement, warez, cracks, software serial numbers, and/or anything else determined by QualiSpace to be unacceptable use of QualiSpace’s services including abuse of server resources.

CGI Scripts

Each shared Linux web hosting account comes with its own cgi-bin, in which you are free to use any* CGI scripts you wish.

*See the Server Resource Abuse section.

Child Pornography

Our policy on child pornography is zero tolerance. QualiSpace will cooperate fully with any criminal investigation into a Customer’s violation of the Child Protection Act of 1984 concerning child pornography. Customers are ultimately responsible for the actions of their clients over the QualiSpace network, and will be liable for illegal material posted by their clients.

According to the Child Protection Act, child pornography includes photographs, films, video or any other type of visual presentation that shows a person who is or is depicted as being under the age of eighteen years and is engaged in or is depicted as engaged in explicit sexual activity, or the dominant characteristic of which is the depiction, for a sexual purpose, of a sexual organ or the anal region of a person under the age of eighteen years or any written material or visual representation that advocates or counsels sexual activity with a person under the age of eighteen years.

Violations of the Child Protection Act may be reported to the U.S. Customs Agency at 1-800-BEALERT

Chat Rooms

We do not allow clients to install their own chat rooms within a shared hosting account, without approving it with the QualiSpace Support Team. Most chat rooms tend to be large system hogs and we cannot allow it as an account option.

Background Running Programs

We don’t allow programs to run continually in the background. Some background programs are CPU and memory intensive and hence we don’t allow them to run on a shared hosting server. If your application needs some background program(s) to run, we may suggest you a dedicated server or a VPS.

IRC

We do not allow IRC clients or IRC bots to be operated on any of our servers. In addition, IRC servers are not permitted on our network. Anyone found to be in violation of this policy risks immediate account termination.

Proxy

Web proxy scripts are prohibited. This includes any script, such as nph-proxy, that allows anyone to browse to a third party web site from any server in the QUALISPACE network or that otherwise masks the true origination point of browsing activities by use of network information associated with QualiSpace. Such scripts will be deleted when found. Repeated violations will result in account suspension or termination.

Gaming Servers

QualiSpace does not allow Gaming servers (not restricted to Minecraft, Counter-Strike, Half-Life, battlefield1492) on its network as Gaming servers are prone to Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks.

Software Downloads

We don’t allow any software to be stored in your website for downloads. The webspace for the website contains space allotted for storing the website related content like HTML, ASP/ASP.NET/PHP/Perl scripts, GIF, Jpeg and Png Images, SWF files, SQL database, MySQL Database and MS Access Database files. Allowing software (third-party or own) to be downloaded from the website is strictly prohibited as it consumes lot of unnecessary bandwidth and thus hogs the performance of the server. Violation of this rule may result in immediate suspension or termination of services without prior notification. Files with extensions like .exe and .msi are treated as software downloads and are not allowed on shared hosting. Violation of this rule may result in immediate suspension or termination of services without prior notification.

Audio/Video Streaming

We don’t allow Audio/Video streaming on our shared hosting servers as it hogs the CPU and bandwidth. QualiSpace reserves the rights to terminate any account found to contain file streaming such as audio, radio and video streams (AVI, MPG, MPEG, MOV, MP3, PODCASTS, etc.) This violated occurrence will be notified by our content auditing team and you will be given 3 days to backup your files. Should the problem persisted within the allotted time period, the files will be deleted. We recommend Flexi Cloud servers or dedicated servers for Audio/Video Streaming. You can, however, upload videos in youtube.com and embed them in your website, but the videos that are embedded should not violate copyrights.

Excessive Use/Overages

You will not exceed the bandwidth, storage and E-mail usage limits outlined by your particular web hosting package. If you use any bandwidth or storage space in excess of the agreed upon number of megabytes/gigabytes per month, QualiSpace may, in its sole discretion, assess you with additional charges. If QualiSpace elects to take any corrective action, QualiSpace will not refund any unused pre-paid fees. Your use of your account and access to it is your responsibility. You are responsible for any unauthorized access to your account resulting in bandwidth, storage and/or E-mail usage exceeding the limits outlined in your particular web hosting package specifications and resultant charges. Bandwidth overages are currently billed at $12/GB/month or Rs. 500/GB/month. For Disk space overages, you will have to upgrade the package to the next available plan.

Heavy Database Size

The size of Databases is limited on QualiSpace shared hosting with 250 MB being the maximum limit of database, 1 GB being the limit of log files for MS SQL Databases. The maximum database size allowed for WordPress hosting is 1 GB. For larger databases, it is recommended to opt for Cloud or Dedicated server. QualiSpace reserves the right to deny support for issues arising out of transactions on large databases.

INODES

The use of more than 250,000 inodes on any Linux shared hosting account or more than 250,000 files/folders in Windows shared hosting account may potentially result in a warning first and if no action is taken future suspension. Accounts found to be exceeding the 100,000 inode/files limit will automatically be removed from our backup system to avoid over-usage; however databases will still be backed up. Every file (a webpage, image file, email, etc.) on your account uses up one inode. Sites that slightly exceed our inode limits are unlikely to be suspended; however, accounts that constantly create and delete large numbers of files on a regular basis, have hundreds of thousands of files, or cause file system damage may be flagged for review and/or suspension. Each Sub-Directory cannot have more than 2500 immediate child files and the total size of the files should not exceed 10 GB. If found, you will be asked to delete the excess files or move them to a separate file storage. The primary cause of excessive inodes seems to be due to users leaving their catchall address enabled, but never checking their primary account mailbox. Over time, tens of thousands of messages (or more) build up, eventually pushing the account past our inode limit. To disable your default mailbox, login to cPanel and choose “Mail”, then “Default Address”, “Set Default Address”, and then type in: :fail: No such user here.

Platinum Plus Plan & Enterprise Plan

Platinum Plus Plan & Enterprise Plan cannot be used to resell web hosting to your customers. You can host only your own company websites under Platinum Plus Plan & Enterprise Plan. If you wish to resell hosting to your customers, you should opt for a Reseller Hosting Plan. Violation of the policy will result into termination of your hosting account.

Bulk Emailing

Sending Bulk emails from below listed email services is strictly prohibited. You cannot send more than;

Shared Hosting – 500 emails per domain per hour and 100 emails per user per hour
Enterprise Basic – 500 emails per email id per hour
