Support Boundaries: ReverbHost, provides 24 x 7 technical support to our subscribers (with some exceptions, including but not limited to holidays). We limit our technical support to our area of expertise. The following is our guidelines when providing support: ReverbHost provides support related to your virtual site's physically functioning. ReverbHost does not guarantee tech support for application specific issues such as cgi programming, html or any other such issue; however, we may provide support from time to time at our sole discretion.

SPAM and Unsolicited Commercial Email (UCE): ReverbHost takes a zero tolerance approach to the sending of Unsolicited Commercial Email (UCE) or SPAM over our network. Very simply this means that customers of ReverbHost may not use or permit others to use our network to transact in UCE. Customers of ReverbHost may not host, or permit hosting of, sites or information that is advertised by UCE from other networks. In addition, it is not acceptable to transmit bulk email through remote SOCKS, HTTP or other similar proxies who in turn make a SMTP (TCP port 25) connection to the destination mail servers. This technique will result in account termination. Violations of this policy carry severe penalties, including termination of service. In order to prevent unnecessary blacklisting due to spam we reserve the right to occasionally sample bulk email being sent from servers.

Violation of ReverbHost's SPAM policy will result in severe penalties. Upon notification of an alleged violation of our SPAM policy, ReverbHost will initiate an immediate investigation (within 48 hours of notification). During the investigation, ReverbHost may restrict customer access to the network to prevent further violations. If a customer is found to be in violation of our SPAM policy, ReverbHost may, at its sole discretion, restrict, suspend or terminate customer's account. Further, ReverbHost reserves the right to pursue civil remedies for any costs associated with the investigation of a substantiated policy violation. ReverbHost will notify law enforcement officials if the violation is believed to be a criminal offense.
