• Payment Policies, Fees, Refunds -

Full payment is required before any hosting service is rendered, which includes renewals. Payment is through a valid credit card, paypal, cheque or money order. Prepayment is due at the time of ordering your AussieHost.com hosting plan, and then depending on the payment cycle intervals after that.

• Server abuse policy -

If we determine that any site on our servers is using too much of the server's resources and therefore abusing the server, we have the right to suspend that domain without any notice. It is then up to you to contact us and formulate a plan to get that domain activated again. We are quick to suspend any domain that abuses the server's resources due to the shared nature of the server and the negative impact an abusing domain has on other domains on the same server.

• SPAM Policy -

AussieHost.com is committed to a zero-tolerance, anti-Spamming policy. Under this policy, we prohibit Spam, or any unsolicited commercial email, from being sent either: Over the AussieHost.com network, by customers or any other users of the AussieHost.com network (including customers' customers); AND/OR over ANY network— if the message sent advertises or mentions a site hosted on the AussieHost.com server.

We react quickly and seriously to violations, and we further reserve the right to terminate the services, without prior notice, of any customer disregarding this policy. Sending unsolicited commercial email (a.k.a. "spam"), cross-posting messages to a large number of Usenet groups, posting obscene or threatening messages while using or referring to an AussieHost.com email address or web site URL is prohibited. The use of AussieHost.com servers as a mail drop for responses to activities described above is also prohibited.

If your main WHM domain is involved in spamming activities, and your account is subsequently terminated, then you do not have the right for a refund. This also includes if you have paid for additional services, such as installations of software or IP addresses.

If one of your customers is involved in spamming, then we will suspend their site and not your main WHM account. If you have any complaints or comments regarding Spam on our network, please direct them via email to abuse@aussiehost.com.
