Illegal Use of Service(s).
Insight Hosting’s web hosting and/or related electronic services can only be used for legal purposes under all applicable international, federal, provincial, and municipal laws. Further, you agree not to store, transmit, link to, advertise, make available, discuss or otherwise disseminate any information, references, text or images that suggest or contain pornography, or reasonably might be interpreted or considered, in our sole judgment, to be pornographic or suggestive of pornography, whether in content or purpose, regardless of kind and degree. Violations of these or any other provisions of this Agreement may result in termination of the service(s) provided by us, with or without the grant of a notice or grace period, such notice or grace period to be granted at our sole discretion based upon the severity of the violation.

The terms of this section will survive any termination of this Agreement.
Shared Server.
You agree not to harm us, our reputation, computer systems, programming and/or other persons using our service(s). We reserves the right to select the server for your website for best performance. You understand that the service(s) we provide are provided on a shared server. This means that one website cannot be permitted to overwhelm the server with heavy CPU usage, for example from the use of highly active ASPX or CGI scripts. If, in our sole judgment, your website overwhelms the server, whether or not it causes complaints from other users, you will be deemed to have outgrown the realm of shared servers, and will need to relocate your website to one of our dedicated server environments. We will refund any unused portion of prepaid services. If you refuse to comply with this section, then we reserve the right to terminate the service(s) provided to you without any refunds.
Selling and Reselling.
If you sell or resell advertising or web space to a third party then you will be responsible for the contents of that advertising and the actions of that third party. We have the absolute right to reject any advertising or other third party content that, in our sole and exclusive opinion, is illegal, offensive, or otherwise objectionable. The e-mail distribution by you of "spam", "junk mail", or "unsolicited commercial e-mail", is expressly prohibited. If you refuse to remove any advertising or other third party content deemed objectionable by us, we may terminate the service(s) being provided to you without refund, rebate or other credit to you.
Use of Passwords.
You agree to be responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password(s) and username(s). In the event of a breach of security through your account(s), you will be liable for any unauthorized use of Insight Hosting service(s), including any damages resulting there from, until you notify Insight Hosting’s customer service. We will not change passwords to any account without proof of identification, which is satisfactory to us, which may include written authorization with a signature. In the event of any partnership break-up, divorce or other legal problems that includes you, you understand that we will remain neutral and may put the account on hold until the situation has been resolved. Under no circumstances will we be liable for any losses incurred by you during this time of determination of ownership, or otherwise. You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any and all claims and losses arising from such ownership disputes.
System and Network Security.
Violations of system or network security are prohibited, and may result in criminal and civil liability. Examples include, but are not limited to the following: unauthorized access, use, probe, or scan of a system’s security or authentication measures, data or traffic, interference with service to any user, host or network including, without limitation, mail bombing, flooding, deliberate attempts to overload a system and broadcast attacks.
Internet Protocol (IP) Addresses.
If we assign you an IP address in connection with your use of our service(s), the right to use that IP address will remain with and belong only to Insight Hosting, and you will have no right to use that IP address except as we allow in our sole and absolute discretion.
Ownership and Copyright of Design Services.
The ownership and copyright of any website designs created by us for you remain the exclusive ownership and copyright of Insight Hosting until payment is made in full.
Policy Enforcement.
Our failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any provision or right. In the event that a portion of this Agreement is held unenforceable, the unenforceable portion will be construed in accordance with applicable law as nearly as possible to reflect the original intentions of the parties, and the remainder of the provisions will remain in full force and effect.
Disputes.
The parties shall attempt to resolve all disputes arising out of this Agreement in a spirit of cooperation and with a problem-solving mindset, without formal proceedings. Any dispute, which cannot be so resolved, shall be subject to binding arbitration upon the written demand of either party. Arbitration shall take place in Saskatoon, SK. Should any legal action permissible under this Agreement be instituted to enforce the terms and conditions of this Agreement, in particular the right to collect money due on unpaid invoices, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorney's fees and expenses incurred at both the trial and appellate levels.
Indemnity.
You agree to indemnify and hold us and any other customer harmless from any and all claims resulting from or related to your use of our services or connected with any activities you conduct. We will promptly notify each other upon receipt of any claim or legal action, affecting or potentially affecting the other customer, arising out of activities conducted pursuant to this Agreement. The rights and responsibilities established in this paragraph will survive any termination of this Agreement.
Use of Information.
We may include your name and contact information in directories of Insight Hosting service subscribers for the purpose of promoting the use of our services to potential clients. However, we are not authorized to print your name, trademarks or other identifying information in any other advertising or promotional materials without your written consent.
Consequences of Violation.
When we become aware of an alleged violation to the Agreement, we will initiate an investigation. During the investigation, we may restrict customer access in order to prevent further possible unauthorized activity. Depending on the severity of the violation, we may, at our sole discretion, restrict, suspend, or terminate customer accounts without refund, rebate or other credit to you, and/or pursue other civil remedies. If such violation is a criminal offense, Insight Hosting will notify the appropriate law enforcement department of such violation.
