Unlimited web space and traffic / good faith policy
Deadpoint Internet services include "unlimited web space" and "unlimited traffic" in an effort to give our customers flexibility and breathing room with the elimination of artificial space and bandwidth "ceilings." We expect our customers to use these resources in good faith.

Due to the unique resource characteristics and hit patterns associated with certain site types of sites, the following do not qualify for unlimited web space or bandwidth, and should contact Deadpoint regarding metered rate accounts: file/download archives (including shareware archives, sound archives, video
archives, image archives, and multimedia archives), mirrors, distribution points, or any other site that's sole or primary purpose is for file distribution.

In addition, to prevent abuse; 1) Deadpoint web space must be used as a facility for web hosting only; 2) Deadpoint storage must not be used as a facility for backup purposes; 3) All non-HTML files must be referenced by HTML files.

Large sites MUST make prior arrangements with Deadpoint before signing up. Specifically, drastic changes or increases in storage size or bandwidth must be coordinated with us so that we are
prepared to handle the increase in resource demand. In short, Deadpoint will give large sites the flexibility they need, provided that such accounts do not negatively impact other of our customers.

Deadpoint's unlimited storage policy also applies to our email accounts. However, Deadpoint email accounts may not be used for permanent storage of email, and must be cleared periodically. In other words, don't click the "leave mail on server" box found in many popular email clients.

Violation of this "good faith" policy can result in warnings or requests to switch to a metered rate. Flagrant violations can result in termination of service. Appropriate warning will be given.
