All provisions of this contract are subject to the AUP (Acceptable Use Policy) of Kappaluppa Company. The AUP may be changed from time to time at the discretion of Kappaluppa Company. The user understands that change to the AUP by Kappaluppa Company shall not be grounds for early contract termination or nonpayment.

Disclosure to Law Enforcement: The AUP specifically prohibits the use of our service for illegal activities. Therefore, user agrees that Kappaluppa Company may disclose any and all user information including assigned IP numbers, account history, account use, etc. to any law enforcement agent who makes a written request without further consent or notification to the user. In addition Kappaluppa Company shall have the right to terminate all services set forth in this Agreement.

Service Rates: User acknowledges that the nature of the service furnished and the initial rates and charges have been communicated to user. User is aware that Kappaluppa Company may prospectively change the specified rates and charges from time to time.

Notice of price increase shall be given at least 14 days prior to expiration date via email and posting in various applicable areas of the site.

SPAM and Unsolicited Commercial Email (UCE): Kappaluppa Company takes a zero tolerance approach to the sending of Unsolicited Commercial Email (UCE) or SPAM over our network. Very simply this means that users of Kappaluppa Company may not use or permit others to use our network to transact in UCE.

Violations of this policy carry severe penalties, including termination of service.

Violation of Kappaluppa Company’s SPAM policy will result in severe penalties. Upon notification of an alleged violation of our SPAM policy, Kappaluppa Company will initiate an immediate investigation (within 48 hours of notification). During the investigation, Kappaluppa Company may restrict user access to the account to prevent further violations. If a user is found to be in violation of our SPAM policy, Kappaluppa Company may, at its sole discretion, restrict, suspend or terminate user’s account. Further, Kappaluppa Company reserves the right to pursue civil remedies for any costs, including costs for time spent associated with the investigation of a substantiated policy violation. Kappaluppa Company will notify law enforcement officials if the violation is believed to be a criminal offense.

Bandwidth: Any outbound traffic from your web site is considered data transfer. Each time a html file, graphic file or any other element on your web page is loaded, data transfer is generated.

The bandwidth limits on our hosting packages are set as a General Guide Only.

We set these guides to what we believe is well above what is actually used on average for each package. If your bandwidth each month is over these levels you will NOT have your hosting suspended or be charged extra for that month.

Notification of Violation: Kappaluppa Company is under no duty to look at each user’s activities to determine if a violation of the AUP has occurred, nor do we assume any responsibility through our AUP to monitor or police Internet-related activities.

First violation: Any User, which Kappaluppa Company determines to have violated any element of this Terms of Service (TOS), shall receive an email, warning them of the violation.

In certain rare cases, we may have to do this before attempting to contact you. If we do this, we will contact you as soon as is feasible.
