"UNLIMITED" USAGE POLICIES AND DEFINITIONS

"Unlimited" usage policies and definitions apply only to shared hosting accounts. Shared hosting service means that multiple web sites are hosted from the same server and share server resources. Shared Hosting is NOT intended to support the sustained demand of large enterprises, internationally based businesses, or non-typical applications better suited to a dedicated server.
1. What "Unlimited" means.
  
  Deerfield Hosting does not set an arbitrary limit or cap on the amount of resources a single subscriber can use. Deerfield Hosting’s shared hosting service is designed to meet the typical needs of personal, small organization, small business and home business websites. In good faith and subject to these Terms, Deerfield Hosting makes every commercially reasonable effort to provide its Subscribers with all the storage and bandwidth resources needed to power their web sites successfully, as long as the Subscriber’s use of the service complies with these Terms. By not setting limits on key resources, we are able to provide simple, consistent pricing to our Subscribers as they grow their websites. As a result, a typical website may experience periods of great popularity and resulting increased storage without experiencing any associated increase in hosting charges.
2. What "Unlimited" DOES NOT mean.
  
  Deerfield Hosting employs complex mechanisms to protect its Subscribers and systems from abuse. Deerfield Hosting’s offering of "unlimited" services is not intended to allow the actions of a single or few Subscribers to unfairly or adversely impact the experience of other Subscribers. Accounts with a large number of files (inode count in excess of 200,000) can have an adverse affect on server performance. Deerfield Hosting will make every commercially reasonable effort to provide additional resources to Subscribers who are using their website(s) consistent with these Terms, including moving Subscribers to newer and bigger shared servers as necessary. However, in order to ensure a consistent and quality experience for all Subscribers, Deerfield Hosting does place automated safeguards to protect against any one site adversely impacting performance until Deerfield Hosting can evaluate said sites resource needs.
3. Unlimited Hosting Space - Website files
  
  Deerfield Hosting does not set arbitrary limits on the amount of disk space a Subscriber can use for the Subscriber’s website, nor does Deerfield Hosting charge additional fees based on an increased amount of storage used, provided the Subscriber’s use of storage complies with these Terms. Please note that Deerfield Hosting’s shared hosting service is designed to host websites. Deerfield Hosting does NOT provide unlimited space for online storage, backups, or archiving of electronic files, documents, emails, log files, etc. and any such prohibited use of the Services will result in the termination of Subscriber’s account, with or without notice.
4. Unlimited Hosting Space - excessive Database files.
  
  Accounts with an excessive number of MySQL/PostgreSQL tables (i.e., in excess of 1000 database tables) or of database size (i.e., in excess of 3GB total MySQL/PostgreSQL usage) negatively affects the performance of the server. Deerfield Hosting may request that the number of files/inodes, database tables, or total database usage be reduced to ensure proper performance or may terminate the Subscriber’s account, with or without notice.
5. Unlimited Hosting Space - excessive Email files.
  
  Accounts with an excessive number of email files (i.e., in excess of 3GB total email usage) can negatively affect the performance of the server. Deerfield Hosting may request that the number of files be reduced to ensure proper performance or may terminate the Subscriber’s account, with or without notice.
6. Unlimited File Transfer.
  
  Deerfield Hosting does not set arbitrary limits on the amount of visitor traffic a web site can receive or on the amount of content a Subscriber can upload to his/her/its website in a given month, nor does Deerfield Hosting charge additional fees based on increased use of bandwidth, as long as the Subscriber’s use of the Services complies with these Terms. In most cases, a Subscriber’s web site will be able to support as much traffic as the Subscriber can legitimately acquire. However, Deerfield Hosting reserves the right to limit processor time, bandwidth, processes, or memory in cases where it is necessary to prevent negatively impacting other Subscribers.
7. Unlimited Domain Hosting.
  
  Deerfield Hosting does not set arbitrary limits on the number of domain names a Subscriber can associate with the Subscriber’s web hosting account. However, Subscriber providing services for other persons or entities is defined as reselling and is specifically excluded.

VPS AND DEDICATED HOSTING USAGE POLICIES
1. Bandwidth Usage.
  
  Reseller and Dedicated Hosting accounts are allocated a monthly bandwidth allowance. This allowance varies depending on the hosting package you purchase. Should your account exceed the allocated monthly amount, we reserve the right to (i) suspend the account until the start of the next month’s allocation; (ii) suspend the account until more bandwidth is purchased at an additional fee; (iii) suspend the account until you upgrade to a higher level of package; (iv) terminate the account; and/or (v) charge you an additional fee for the overages. Unused bandwidth in one month cannot be carried over to the next month and bandwidth may not be pooled among multiple servers or accounts.
2. Availability of Support.
  
  Deerfield Hosting will provide a default Operating System installation on the Dedicated Server hardware that permits super-user server access to our support staff. Subscriber agrees and acknowledges that if Subscriber alters or removes this server access, Deerfield Hosting’s ability to provide technical support to the Subscriber may be severely limited.
3. Subscriber Super-User Access.
  
  Subscriber acknowledges that Subscriber is solely responsible for any changes made with Super-User access and that Deerfield Hosting may not be able to reverse any changes and/or recover data lost or damaged through the use of Super-User privileges. Deerfield Hosting’s level of support to those users accessing Super-User privileges will be limited as follows:
  1. Reinstallation of corrupted modules, such as control panel files, web server files, etc.
  2. Reinstallation of the baseline OS and core file image at Subscriber’s request. Subscriber must acknowledge that they understand that a new image install will cause the complete loss of all data stored on the server.
  3. Restoration of files from the latest backup at Subscriber’s request. This restoration will be a full restore of the backup files; Deerfield Hosting does not offer file-by-file restoration services.
  4. Deerfield Hosting will not attempt any configuration or setup of DNS, firewalls, web server, etc.
  5. Deerfield Hosting will attempt basic diagnostics upon Subscriber’s request. Deerfield Hosting does not offer in-depth manual diagnostics as part of the Service. Subscriber may contact Deerfield Hosting Professional Services to inquire about additional support offerings.
