Acceptable
Use Policy
WgraFix, reserves the right to refuse service to any
site at our sole discretion. Although we do not believe
in censorship, WgraFix does not allow the following
types of sites:
Websites
containing explicit pornographic material Racist or
hate-related websites
These sites, including but not limited to any copyrighted
software or music files
Sites which provide methods for circumventing copy protection
("cracks", key codes, serial numbers, decoder
chips, etc...) are also not permitted. Any content which
is not legal in the United States
Unsolicited
Email (Spam) and Bulk Email
WgraFix will not host websites which are advertised
through unsolicited email, excessive newsgroup crossposting,
or off-topic newsgroup posts. What is considered spam
is determined at the sole discretion of WgraFix. We
will make every effort to work with our customers to
insure that legitimate websites are not shut down due
to what may be wrongly interpreted as unsolicited mail.
Although we are first and foremost an advocate of our
customers, sites in flagrant violation of this policy
will be shutdown without a refund of any kind. In addition,
to protect the quality of service for all of our customers,
any bulk emailing that adversely affects the performance
of our shared mail servers will be either discontinued
or moved, pending customer approval, to one of our list
server or dedicated server plans.
Bandwidth
and Overages
Each hosting plan is allocated a specific amount of
network and system resources which is clearly specified
on the WgraFix Hosting website. We realize that from
time to time, customers may have unanticipated circumstances
which cause their websites to use more bandwidth, disk
space, or other resources than they have been allocated
with their plan. In extreme cases, such overages may
result in additional charges or the request to upgrade
your service to a more suitable plan. WgraFix, will
make every effort to contact you to prevent any unexpected
charges or service interruptions. If the resources required
by your website negatively impact other customers in
our shared hosting environment, we may take steps, including
possible temporary suspension of service, to restore
normal server operations. Under all circumstances, suspension
of service is an absolute last resort and we will make
every effort to work with our customers to insure continuous
and trouble-free service.
Limitations

Although there are limitations to the guarantees we
can provide, your satisfaction is very important to
us. We strive towards providing 100% customer satisfaction
