All (90%) of your web pages (html) must be ‘linked’ with files (.GIF, .JPEG, etc.) stored on GigsGigsCloud.com’s server. Web sites that are found to contain either/or no html documents, a large number of unlinked files are subject to warning, suspension or cancellation at the discretion of GigsGigsCloud.com management. Any customer who violates GigsGigsCloud.com’s Policies in abusing either space/site transfer will be notified and given 2 days to remedy the problem.

Unsolicited commercial advertisements (spam) are not allowed in e-mail, and will likely result in account cancellation
GigsGigsCloud.com takes a zero-tolerance approach to spam originating from our servers or for spam advertising of domains hosted on our servers.
The following activities are not allowed :
- Unsolicited bulk or commercial messages (“spam”). This includes, but is not limited to, mass mailing or bulk mailing of commercial advertising, informational announcements, charity requests, petitions for signatures, and political or religious tracts. Such messages may only be sent to those who have explicitly requested it from your domain.
- Forging, altering or removing electronic mail headers is prohibited. Any domain sending stealth spam will be terminated without warning and without refund.
- Sending numerous copies of the same or substantially similar message with the intent to disrupt a server or account (“mail bombing”).
- Spamming Newsgroups: Commercial advertisements are unwelcome in most Usenet discussion groups and on most e-mail mailing lists. Inappropriate posting may result in account cancellation. See the newsgroup or mailing list’s charter for whether advertising is allowed or not. “Spamming,” or sending a message to many different off-topic newsgroups, is particularly unethical and will be treated as such.
- Mail may not be used to harass or intimidate others. Harassment, whether through language, frequency of messages, or size of messages, is prohibited. Sending a single unwelcome message may be considered harassment. If a recipient asks to stop receiving e-mail, you must not send that person any further messages.

Penalty : Depending on the severity of your SPAMMING, GigsGigsCloud.com reserves the right to charge you between USD1.00 – USD100.00 PER SPAM sent through our network. Your domain name and web site content will also be confiscated and it will be NEVER returned to you.
(This section does not apply to managed dedicated or co-location servers.) Each shared Unix web hosting account comes with its own CGI-bin, in which you are free to use any* CGI scripts you wish.

* See the Server Resource Abuse section.
(This section does not apply to managed dedicated or co-location servers.)
Shared server accounts are limited in use of the amount of server resources. Shared server resource abuse includes any process or service usage that affects normal shared server operation, resources or connectivity, and which causes a server to become overloaded. Shared server resources include CPU and memory usage, number of concurrent processes, number of concurrent port or database connections and total bandwidth. Possible causes of server resource abuse include, but are not limited to, the use of: CGI, Perl, PostFix, Qmail, Sendmail, MySQL, MSSQL, PHP, ASP, COLDFUSION, HTTP, SMTP, POP3 and FTP. If server resource abuse is detected, possible actions include, but are not limited to: disabling of the offending script or scripts, disabling of the specific service, disabling of the entire account or account cancellation. If server overload is a result of server resource abuse, these actions will be taken without prior notice or warning.

We do not allow clients to install their own chat rooms within a shared hosting account, without approving it with the GigsGigsCloud.com Support Team. Most chat rooms tend to be large system hogs and we cannot allow it as an account option. However, we do provide a choice of Java chat rooms for a small extra charge that will more than fill your needs and run without hindering the performance of the machine for others.
Note : Parachat chat rooms do not apply to this rule. They are perfectly fine to install.
We do not allow clients to send more than 2000 pieces of e-mail per day from a shared hosting account. If you do send more than 2000 pieces of e-mail per day, your account will be placed on hold for Network Abuse. If you are sending legitimate e-mails and they total more than 2000 per day your account will be moved to a special server that is specifically designed to handle high volumes of e-mail. You will be charged USD50.00/month in addition to your regular hosting charges if your account is moved to this server. Please contact [email protected] to have your domain moved.
We may allow programs to run continually in the background. These are considered on a one-to-one basis and an extra charge will be incurred based on system resources used and operational maintenance needed. (this section does not apply to managed dedicated servers)
