SECTION 19 – LEGAL

The web hosting account and any associated electronic services must exclusively serve lawful purposes in accordance with all relevant international, federal, provincial, and municipal laws. Aveshost's primary purpose is to offer web document hosting and not to function as remote storage for electronic files. Compliance with the Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) is mandatory. Violations of the AUP or any other provisions outlined in this Agreement may lead to the termination of Aveshost's services, with or without prior notice or an opportunity to rectify the violation. The decision to grant notice or a cure period is entirely at the discretion of Aveshost and is based on the severity of the infringement.

Aveshost retains the right to decline service if any content within your website or any links originating from it are determined to be illegal, misleading, obscene, or otherwise in violation of Aveshost's AUP, as solely determined by Aveshost. You acknowledge that Aveshost shall not be held liable for any losses or damages resulting from its decision to refuse hosting for your website or providing services under this Agreement.

SECTION 19.1 – Backups

Aveshost performs backups of client databases daily and weekly and all other files every other day and weekly on all of our servers to ensure critical files are never lost. Furthermore, Aveshost does not guarantee this feature to any of the clients, and therefore strongly advise the client to regularly perform a backup of their own data, hosted with us.

In the unfortunate event that the client has lost their data hosted with Aveshost, will use reasonable endeavors to restore the client's data; however Aveshost will not be responsible for lost data, time, income or any other resource due to faulty backups or non-existent back-ups or any data loss due to faulty hardware. We highly encourage our customers to have their own separate backups if your website or data is critical to your business or livelihood as no backup method is failsafe therefore we make no warranties.

SECTION 19.2 – Inode Usage Policy

For Deluxe, Professional, and Enterprise plans, accounts exceeding 240,000 inodes will receive an automatic warning. For the Ultimate plan, an automatic warning will be issued for accounts exceeding 590,000 inodes. At this stage, no service interruption will occur; however, failure to reduce the inode count may result in service interruption once the usage exceeds 250,000 inodes for Deluxe, Professional, and Enterprise plans, and 600,000 inodes for the Ultimate plan.

Accounts that exceed the 250,000 inode limit for Deluxe, Professional, and Enterprise plans, or 600,000 inodes for the Ultimate plan, may display a "resource exceeded" message and could be subject to suspension if no corrective action is taken. For Virtual Private Servers (VPS), the server-wide inode limit is 25 million, with no per cPanel user limit.

Every file (a webpage, image file, email, etc) on your account uses up 1 inode.

The primary cause of excessive inodes seems to be due to users leaving their catchall address enabled, but never checking their primary account mailbox. Over time, tens of thousands of messages (or more) build up, eventually pushing the account past our inode limit. To disable your default mailbox, login to cPanel and choose "Mail", then "Default Address", "Set Default Address", and then type in: :fail: No such user here.
