The AUP is not an all-inclusive or exhaustive list and ClusterTech reserves the right to modify the AUPs at any time as needed, effective upon either the posting of the modified AUPs to https://portal.fengqi.asia or notification to the Subscriber via email.
ClusterTech may, at any time, remove access to this service to any Subscriber for abuse, excessive utilization, any activity deemed harmful or adverse to ClusterTech or its Subscribers, or to improve system and network security. ClusterTech reserves the right to remove access to any service or feature that, in ClusterTech‘s sole judgment, is being abused, even if through negligence or ignorance, by the Subscriber.
Any violation of the AUPs may result in the immediate suspension or termination of Subscriber’s account or such other action as ClusterTech deems appropriate. Fees may be assessed against Subscriber’s account and no credits will be issued for any interruption in service resulting from policy violations.
  1. Compliance with Law
    Subscriber shall not post, transmit, re-transmit or store material on or through any of ClusterTech’s Services or Products which, in the sole judgment of the ClusterTech (i) is in violation of any law or regulation, (ii) threatening, obscene, indecent, defamatory or that otherwise could adversely affect any individual, gro up or entity (collectively, “Persons”) or (iii) violates the rights of any person, including rights protected by copyright, trade secret, patent or other intellectual property or similar laws or regulations including, but not limited to, the installation o r distribution of “pirated” or other software products that are not appropriately licensed for use by Subscriber.

  2. Subscriber Security Obligation
    Each Subscriber must use reasonable care in keeping software Subscriber runs on the ClusterTech’s servers up-to-date and patched with the latest security updates. Failure to use reasonable care to protect Subscriber’s account may result in a security compromise by outside sources. A compromised server creating network interference will result in immediate Subscriber notification and will be disconnected from the network immediately so as to not directly affect other Subscribers. The Subscriber is solely responsible for any breaches of security under Subscriber control affecting servers. If a Subscriber intentionally creates a security breach, the cost to resolve any damage to Subscriber ’s server or other servers will be charged directly to the Subscriber.

  4. System and Network Resource Usage
    ClusterTech’s servers and networks are carefully maintained and monitored to provide optimum performance for certain types of usage; namely, serving content and Services on the Internet. Subscribers are expected to operate Subscribers’ accounts in such a manner as to maintain system and network performance and stability.
    1. Excessive Processor Utilization: Processes utilizing a significant percentage of a server’s processor will, at ClusterTech’s discretion, be terminated. ClusterTech will make every attempt to notify Subscriber of this process termination and the underlying reason. However, in some instances the process may be terminated automatically without warning.
    2. Excessive Network Utilization: Subscribers using an excessive amount of bandwidth in a short period of time will, at ClusterTech’s discretion, be throttled or have Subscriber’s site and/or account otherwise rendered unusable
    3. Terminal/Shell Access: As a service to Subscribers, to make managing Subscriber’s account easier, ClusterTech makes available server access via SSH (i.e.: shell accounts). Subscribers are prohibited from using this method of account access to attempt to access other Subscribers’ or ClusterTech’s accounts or information.
    4. Resolution of Problems: All problems found by ClusterTech that are within the Subscriber ’s control and that result in excessive server or network utilization are the responsibility of the Subscriber to fix. ClusterTech may, from time to time, assist Subscriber in researching and repairing the problem; this is done as a courtesy and does not imply that ClusterTech has taken responsibility for fixing this problem. ClusterTech may, at its discretion, removes access to the services impacted until the Subscriber resolves the problem.
  5. Internet Etiquette
    Each Subscriber is expected to execute reasonable Internet etiquette. The Subscriber will comply with the rules appropriate to any network to which ClusterTech may provide access. The Subscriber should not post, transmit, or permit Internet access to information the Subscriber desires to keep confidential. The Subscriber is not permitted to post any material that is illegal, libelous, and tortuous, indecently depicts children or is likely to result in retaliation against ClusterTech by offended users. ClusterTech reserves the right to refuse or terminate service at any time for violation of this section. This includes advertising services or sites via IRC or USENET in clear violation of the policies of the IRC channel or USENET group.
  6. Copyright Infringement
    ClusterTech services may only be used for lawful purposes. Transmission, distribution, or storage of any information, data or material in violation of any law, is prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to, material protected by copyright, trademark, trade secret, or other intellectual property rights.
    Utilizing or distributing unauthorized copies of software constitutes a violation of any law. If Subscriber copies, distributes or installs the software in ways that the license does not allow, Subscriber is violating copyright law. ClusterTech will cooperate with all law enforcement agencies in relation to alleged copyright infringement housed on ClusterTech’s Servers.
  7. IP Allocation
    Subscribers shall NOT use IP addresses that were not assigned to them by ClusterTech. Any account utilizing IP addresses outside of those assigned to it will be suspended from network access until such time as the IP addresses overlap can be corrected. Use of an unauthorized IP address or use of an unauthorized IP address creating a third party Subscriber outage will result in penalty charge and termination of service.
  8. Suspension and Termination
    ClusterTech reserves the right to suspend service to any Subscriber located on our servers for violation of the AUP. ClusterTech will use reasonable care in notifying the Subscriber and in resolving the problem in a method resulting in the least amount of service interference as reasonably possible. For single or for continued and repeated violations of the AUP or, at ClusterTech’s discretion, to prevent a violation of the AUP, ClusterTech reserves the right to:
    1. Terminate service without notice for single or for continued and repeated violations of the AUP.
    2. Limit Subscriber access to services or implement service and resource usage restrictions.
    3. Ask the Subscriber to upgrade to a higher service plan. ClusterTech shall be the sole determiner of which of the above actions is to be taken, and can reverse or revise its decision at any time.
