- Introduction
The conduct and use of the services (Service(s)) provided by The ProHosterZ Web Solutions (we, us or our) to its customers, their customers (End Users), and any other entity using our Services, or requesting information from us, (collectively “you” or “your”) is governed by this Acceptable Use and Information Request Policy (AUP). We have established this AUP to provide you with guidance about permitted uses of our Service. If you are purchasing our Services, either directly, or as an End User, it is part of your contract with us.
This AUP is designed to provide you with information about our policies should you believe that one of our customers, or their End Users, is engaging in conduct that is prohibited by law, or otherwise objectionable. Should you wish to contact us, please use the addresses listed in the appropriate section of this AUP. We are not required to respond to inquiries that do not follow this AUP.
- This AUP may change
We reserve the right to modify, update and/or materially change this AUP without notice to you. If you purchase our Services, and such a change materially affects your use of the Services, you may terminate your Agreement with us. The definition of “materiality” is set out in our Terms of Service (TOS).
- You must flow down this AUP to your End Users
If you purchase Services from us, you must have an acceptable use policy no less restrictive than our AUP. If you choose to copy this AUP into your agreement, you must acknowledge in your agreement that we are the sole owners of this AUP and that it has been copyrighted by us. You agree to indemnify us should you fail to comply with this paragraph. However, even if you include this AUP in your agreement with your End Users, you remain responsible for their conduct, and agree to indemnify us and our third party vendors from any claims made against us based on their conduct.
It is very important that your review the terms of our TOS. Many of our third party vendors require you to flow down provisions of their agreements to your End Users. You agree to indemnify us, and/or our third party vendors, should your failure to flow down these provisions result in a claim against either of us.
- Your use of the Services must be lawful
You may not use our Services to contravene the laws of the United States, or any other jurisdiction in which you use or access our Services. It is important that you consider your use of our Services prior to accepting our TOS. You may not terminate the TOS if it is determined that your use of the Services is contrary to law or this AUP.

You may not engage in probes, port-scans, sweeps or spoofing of systems. We will report this activity to the appropriate law enforcement entity. We may engage in this activity, as allowed by law.
- Server and network stability
We have optimized our servers and network for the Services we offer. These Services are used by more than one customer. If we determine that your use of the Services endangers our servers, network or other aspects of our infrastructure, we may suspend your account. We reserve the right to take this action even if your use of the Services is otherwise legal. Your account will remain suspended, and Fees will continue to accrue during this suspension. It is your obligation to determine whether your use of the Services will adversely affect our servers, network and/or infrastructure. You may not terminate the TOS if your use of the Services is suspended by application of this paragraph.
- Network unfriendly activity
ProHosterZ reserves the right to disallow activities that negatively impact network operations. This includes but is not limited to the running of applications or processes that require resources in excess of what the package allows. One example of this is the running of open proxies on ProHosterZ’s Enterprise VPS line.
- Accurate information / Confidentiality
Providing us with accurate information not only makes it easier for us to contact you, but it also speeds our response to any complaints or issues you present to us. It is your obligation to provide accurate, updated, information to us.
Customer information is confidential. Third parties who contact us may request that their correspondence be kept confidential. However, our obligation to keep this third party correspondence confidential will only be pursuant to a mutually agreed-upon non-disclosure agreement, this agreement or law.
- Cooperation with Law Enforcement
We choose, and in some cases are obligated, to comply with legitimate requests from law enforcement and other governmental entities for information about you. When possible, we will give you notice of these requests. However, in most cases, we are prohibited from giving you notice. This prohibition may be express, or based on our reasonable interpretation of the law.

- Other Requests for Information
If you believe that we have information that is relevant to a legal action in which you are involved, it is important that you contact us prior to requesting the information. The Services are not designed to serve as a repository of your information, and we are not in the business of providing litigation support. It can be time consuming and expensive for us to respond to requests for information. We are generally under no legal obligation to provide information to civil litigants. If you request, or demand, information from us, we will charge you for our response. All charges will be based on our current administrative fee, and will include any fees charged to us by our attorney to respond to your request. You may be required to pay these charges up front before we will produce information.
Requests for information from non-law enforcement entities must contain the following, and are not confidential:
i.The name, address and email address of the individual to whom the information will be sent;
ii.A copy of the complaint or other document, indicating a filed and pending litigation matter, that has been file stamped or otherwise endorsed by a judicial or administrative body;
iii.Citation of the law pursuant to which a response by us is compelled;
