eXtremesurf reserves the right to designate and make changes in Company's rules of operation, including but not limited to, accessibility periods, Customer identification procedures, type of server and connection equipment, configuration and location of system and service equipment and content rules without notice.

Bandwidth and Disk space

Standard set bandwidth accounts are provided with the bandwidth listed when they sign up. eXtremesurf may change this bandwidth limit at any time and will notify the customer of any changes to their plan. Users who go over their bandwidth limit are subjected to billings of $2/Gig over the monthly limit described. Bandwidth not used in a previous month is not carried over to the next month or any month thereafter. In addition to the other terms of this agreement, which apply to all plans, bandwidth and utilization, by its nature, is subject to a number of differing and/or additional terms. eXtremesurf provides the space and transfer limitations in good faith to our Customers so that they may create their Websites without the fear of running over their Web traffic allocation. While most Customers will use the space and traffic for their legitimate Web site needs, we recognize that others may try to take advantage of our offer and use the space and traffic in ways for which it is not intended. In the best interests of our Customers and in an effort to maintain the integrity of our service, the following common sense rules will apply:
Customer's site must use and store only the information and data that relates to the Website, at the IP address provided by eXtremesurf. Customer may not resell or give away Web space under a domain name, nor may Customer build Websites that house "sub domain" Websites on behalf of other companies, groups or individuals without a reseller account. Customers who wish to resell eXtremesurf's Web space should utilize eXtremesurf's Reseller Program or purchase additional accounts for each new individual. A Customer may not use the customer's Website to store Web pages, files or data for other IP addresses or domain names, nor may a customer use its Website as a repository for file, data or "Warez group" download transfers. eXtremesurf reserves the right to make this determination, in its sole and absolute discretion. eXtremesurf's "unlimited traffic” and “unlimited storage" offer is to provide eXtremesurf's customers with storage space and bandwidth for active Web pages and cannot be used as a "storage space" for electronic files. An example of sites that fall under "electronic storage" are large gallery or archives of images, compressed files, web cams linked from external sites, movies, sound files, or PC backups. When using an unlimited account, All HTML pages MUST be linked to files (HTML, .jpg, .gif, .avi, .mpg, etc.) stored on eXtremesurf's server and vice versa. eXtremesurf may take whatever steps necessary to provide its services, and to provide for the enjoyment of such services by all of eXtremesurf clients, and to ensure that certain clients do not utilize services to the detriment of other clients. Customers with Websites that do not comply with these simple rules, or who seek to take advantage of eXtremesurf unlimited storage or traffic plan in any other way, will, at the discretion of eXtremesurf , have their sites canceled and/or removed from the servers without notice or refund and may have service charges assessed at the discretion of eXtremesurf. Users who violate our strict unlimited bandwidth policy will be removed on their first violation. Monthly customers paying for fixed bandwidth are not bound by the terms marked for unlimited bandwidth usage. eXtremesurf will be the sole and final arbiter as to Websites or usages of resources that constitute violation or intent to violate our policies.
