SPAM or Unsolicited Commercial Email

Manicanet has a zero tolerance policy for the sending of SPAM or Unsolicited Commercial Email (UCE) over our network. Manicanet Customers cannot send SPAM or UCE and cannot host sites or information advertised in SPAM or UCE. Customers are also responsible for the actions of their clients and must take all reasonable precautions to secure their servers and sites against SPAM exploits (e.g. open email relays and insecure CGI scripts).

Violating our UCE or SPAM policy will result in penalties. Upon detection or notification of a violation of our UCE policy, Manicanet will initiate an immediate investigation. During this time, outgoing mail may be suspended from the offending ip address to prevent further violations. If a client is found to be in violation of our UCE policy, Manicanet will impose penalties and/or, at its discretion, restrict or terminate the offending account and the Customer's access to our network. Repeated or serious violations may result in the immediate termination of the account. SPAM is a very serious matter.

PLEASE DO NOT SPAM. EDUCATE YOUR CLIENTS and TAKE ALL PRECAUTIONS against SPAM EXPLOITS. Manicanet reserves the right to apply a minimum $200 US per complaint investigation/resolution charge.

Manicanet Administrative Login and Management Software

To facilitate data center/network/server management, inventory and related activities, Manicanet VPS and shared servers include a Manicanet administrative account and password and/or a Manicanet daemon. All reasonable precautions are made by Manicanet to maintain the security of these tools and the privacy of client data. Customers cannot tamper, hinder, delete, or in anyway change the functioning of these tools. To do so intentionally or otherwise is a violation of this agreement and is grounds for the immediate suspension of a Customer's account.

Account Cancellation

This Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) is not exhaustive. Manicanet has the right to refuse service to anyone at any time WITHOUT WARNING OR PRIOR NOTICE. No refunds of fees paid will be made if account termination is due to a violation of the Acceptable Use Policy as outlined above.

Standard Manicanet investigation/resolution/cleanup fee is $300 US or more depending on circumstances.
