This AUP governs the use of HostSailor’s web hosting service. Violation will result in suspension or termination of the User’s service. In the event of a dispute between HostSailor and User regarding the interpretation of the AUP, HostSailor’s commercially reasonable interpretation of the AUP shall govern. Please contact HostSailor should you have any questions about our AUP.

Child pornography

Excessive violence (including threats and harassment)

Unfair or deceptive under consumer protection laws

In violation of a person’s privacy

Exposes trade secrets

Security

Users are responsible for maintaining security and must take reasonable precautions to safeguard their account. Keep your password confidential, and make it a habit to update it regularly.

IPv6

As we shift from IPv4 to IPv6 as the primary network address space, certain actions will be considered violations of our Acceptable Use Policy. Overuse of IPv6 resources can impact network performance and, in turn, the quality of service we provide to our users. Misuse of allocated server IPv6 addresses is a key concern. To maintain a high level of service for everyone, we will carefully regulate the number of IPv6 addresses assigned to each server.

Bulk Commercial Email

User must obtain advance approval from HostSailor for any bulk commercial email. Approval will only be given based on the following parameters:

Your intended recipients have given their permission via an opt-in procedure

Your procedures for soliciting consent are reasonable

You have evidence of the recipient’s consent and can produce this evidence

The body of the email must describe how the email address was obtained

You have procedures in place that make it possible for recipients to opt out of the email or otherwise revoke their consent

You must have a privacy policy posted for each domain associated with the mailing

You have means to track complaints

You must not obscure the source of your email in any manner

You otherwise comply with CAN SPAM Act and other applicable laws

Users may not use a third-party email service that violates these procedures. HostSailor reserves the right to test your compliance with these requirements.

We block email ports on our VPS services, such as port 25, to protect users from spam. You must use a spam filter device to send email by overriding the blocker. You may visit our knowledge base to learn how to use our spam filter device. In addition, our technical support is available to you while setting the spam filter device for smooth email transmission.

We do have some restrictions set for the outgoing emails as described below

Maximum Recipients Per Sender / 30 Minutes (Outbound Only): 200

Maximum Connections Per IP Address / 30 Minutes: 50

Unsolicited Emails

You may not send any unsolicited email to anyone who has indicated they do not wish to receive it.

If you are found to be in violation of this requirement, HostSailor reserves the right to terminate your service.
