No-Spam Policy
Web Weaver seeks to provide the best business class web hosting
services to our users, we offer a full-range of personal and
commercial hosting services.
Web Weaver specialists have adopted a philosophy that assumes
the honesty and integrity of our subscriber base. Our services
are provided in as unrestricted a manner as possible to allow
our users to have the best possible Internet experience.
Abuse of these services is a violation of our Acceptable Use Policy
(a supplemental agreement you executed when subscribing to our
service). One of the most serious abuses (which has long been
a crime in other states,
more recently a crime in Michigan') is using your account to
send unwanted and unsolicited commercial e-mail, otherwise known
as "spam" or "UCE".
The following are examples of spam and blatant violations
of our Service
Agreement.
Improper E-Mail Activities
Commercial e-mail: Defined as sending unsolicited,
money-making e-mails.
You are not permitted to use your Web Weaver.com account or
e-mail account on your Virtual Server to send unsolicited commercial
e-mail. Using an e-mail address hosted anywhere on Web Weaver.com
servers to collect responses from unsolicited commercial e-mail
is prohibited. This also includes using third party e-mail accounts
or servers including free ones to promote your Web Weaver.com
based Virtual Server and redirectors for the same account.
Mail Bombing: Defined as sending large volumes
of unsolicited e-mail to individuals from your Web Weaver.com
based Virtual Server account, is prohibited.
Harassment: Defined as sending threatening
or harassing e-mail after being requested to stop, is prohibited.
Extremely threatening or harassing e-mail never is allowed.
Improper use of Mailing Lists
Purchased Mailing Lists: Mass mailing to
purchased mailing lists is not allowed. We allow only opt-in
mailing lists. To comply with our no-spam policy, the recipients
on your mailing list must have specifically requested (subscribed)
to receive mail from you on this topic. Purchased or inherited
lists are, by definition, not opt-in. Similarly;
you could not start a list about horses and then post to it about
boats. Opt-in list mailings must include instructions to unsubscribe
(opt-out) in every message.
Improper Newsgroup Activities
Newsgroup Spam: Defined as excessive cross-posting,
or posting the same article to multiple newsgroups. This is prohibited.
Generally accepted standards allow no more than 15 newsgroups,
or cross-postings, for a single article. You are not allowed
to use the Web Weaver.com based mail facilities to send spam
to newsgroups.
Off topic or improper postings: There is
no restriction on content, except as defined by each newsgroup.
Please keep in mind that commercial advertisements are considered
off-topic for the vast major of newsgroups or e-lists. We take
a very serious view of spam. If any Web Weaver.com customer is
determined to be in violation of our spam policy we will take
immediate action. Your account will be disabled and we will report
the incident to the proper local, state, and federal authorities
if necessary.
This is not attempt to censor, or to curtail the business
of our customers. However, spamming hurts our members and our
business more than it helps the spammer.
Thanks for your consideration.
