Policies on Hosting
Policies on Hosting
We provide hosting for websites alone. Therefore, we have compiled the following to explain the parameters by which we are offering these services.
Rights We Reserve
We reserve the right to suspend and terminate websites for any reason we deem necessary. This will be done without maliciousness. Reasons may include, but not be limited to delinquent payments, non-payments, statements that you will not continue using our services, violation of the below issues. Our rights to suspend and terminate may involve immediate action on our part. Notification will follow. We generally give notification with dates and times of a suspension or termination.
We reserve the right to destroy website material. If illicit and/or illegal material, malicious scripts, material placed above the /public_html/ root, remote backups are found, we reserve the right to delete the material without providing you backup. We will create a backup of illegal material and present it to the proper authorities.
We reserve the right to allow IT professionals, our server providers, and developers to examine your site and for technical issues and perform scans. Since they will be able to view all data, the onus is on you, the website owner, to have legitimate material.
We reserve the right to disallow your access to website dashboards, administration panels, FTP and CPanel. Access is considered on a case-by-case basis. If these privileges are extended, they may be revoked at our discretion, immediately. Your website hosting plan does not demand access to these features.
Directory Permissions
We provide hosting for websites. Therefore, we do not allow information to be placed outside a website hosting environment. That means, your website (including all scripts and data) are to be located under the /public_html/ folder. Any material/scripts found above that location can be destroyed immediately and at our discretion, even if we cannot determine if they pose a risk.
Illegal Activity
Our customers may only participate in lawful activities. Storage or sending of any material in violation of any Country, Federal, State or Local regulation is prohibited. It is impossible to list all of the evils this world offers. Child Pornography, human trafficking, copyright infringement and a host of other illegal activities, too numerous to list are forbidden. We have the right and obligation to turn that data over to the proper authorities.
Anonymous Proxies
Anonymous proxies are prohibited on Evmikna’s Servers.
Spamming
This area of concern is often misunderstood. We monitor email traffic (neither the content nor subject lines) to determine the health of the email system. As our customer, you agree to not send bulk e-mail to either your clients or friends. Did you know that sending a batch of 18 emails can identify you as a spammer? Even if it is to your friends! We will note unusual activity and contact you in the event that you inadvertently spam. There are free solutions (e.g., MailChimp) that allow you to send a batch of emails. It is NOT in your interest to persist in this activity. It may result in blacklisting your domain. Have you had complaints that people did not receive your email? One common reason is that you may have sent too many bulk emails.
We will do our best to educate you and help you toward solid solutions. However, if you persist we will have to take seriously and swift action. This may result in immediate account cancellation without a refund.

Digital Money Mining
We do not permit the use of digital money mining scripts to run on our server.
Spoofing/Impersonation
Using Evmikna’s hosting to impersonate another person or entity, be it through Email, Internet Forums, or any other means, is strictly prohibited. This includes spoofing email or network packet headers whether or not it is done for malicious purposes.
Spamdexing
Customer agrees to not engage in activities pertaining to Black Hat SEO, Spamdexing, and so-called “Scraper sites.” These can all have a severely detrimental effect on server performance and are not permitted.
Any conduct that is likely to result in retaliation against Evmikna’s server including engaging in behavior that results in any server being the target of a denial of service attack (DoS).
Personal Backups
Your hosting fees include backups made every three days of your CPanel.
Prohibited Content
Adult Thumbnail Galleries/Banner Exchanges
You agree not to run a banner exchange, free adult tgp (thumbnail gallery post), or free adult image galleries on your website.
Abusive Scripts/Processes
Any script/process/etc that adversely affects the ability of any other customer to satisfactorily use their provided services is forbidden. This includes, but is not limited to, CPU-intensive CGI/PHP scripts and websites for which the scale of traffic has exceeded the acceptable limits of a shared hosting environment.
IRC Bots/Bouncers
All IRC bots and “bouncers” (bnc, etc) are forbidden.
BitTorrent software
While we recognize the value in the BitTorrent protocol as a distribution method, it is far too easily (and often accidentally) abused/misused and therefore not allowed on Evmikna’s services.
Proxy Software
All proxy software, anonymous or otherwise, is forbidden on Evmikna’s servers.
Network Daemons
Any process that opens a network socket to accept connections from external networks is forbidden. Processes are allowed to bind to the local host only, but are held to the limitations placed on all other processes. They must not use up more than their fair share of resources and they must not interfere with any other customers’ activities.
