A. Tarika Technologies
Web Hosting & Ecommerce Customer Restrictions
The following Terms of Use apply only to Tarika Technologies' Web Hosting and Ecommerce
customers, and supplement the terms in sections C and D that apply to all Tarika
Technologies customers:
Server Resources
Any Website that uses a high amount of server resources (such as, but not limited
to, CPU time, memory usage, and network resources) will be given the option to either
pay additional fees (which will depend on the resources required), reduce the resources
used to an acceptable level, or upgrade its service to a Dedicated Server plan.
Tarika Technologies will be the sole arbiter of what is considered to be a high
server usage level. All Web Hosting and Ecommerce accounts come with a limit of
5,000 files per account. Each block of 5,000 files after the initial 5,000 will
incur an additional charge of INR 500.00/month. Any Web Hosting and Ecommerce account
deemed to be adversely affecting server performance or network integrity will be
shut down without prior notice.
Spamming
Sending unsolicited bulk and/or commercial messages over the Internet (known as
"spamming") is prohibited, regardless of whether or not it overloads a server or
disrupts service to Tarika Technologies' customers. The term "spamming" also includes,
but is not limited to, maintaining an open SMTP policy, engaging in spamming using
the service of another ISP or IPP and referencing in the spam a Web site hosted
on a Tarika Technologies server, and selling or distributing software (on a Web
site residing on a Tarika Technologies server) that facilitates spamming. Violators
will be assessed a minimum fine of INR 10,000.00 and will face immediate suspension.
Tarika Technologies reserves the right to determine, in its sole and absolute discretion,
what constitutes a violation of this provision.
CGI Scripts
Any scripts that pose a potential security risk or are deemed to be adversely affecting
server performance or network integrity will be shut down or will be automatically
removed without prior notice. Tarika Technologies does not permit CGI script sharing
with domains not hosted by Tarika Technologies or any scripts that may be abused
for UCE purposes.
Chat Rooms
Tarika Technologies does not allow Web Hosting and Ecommerce customers to install
their own chat rooms. Chat rooms tend to require significant system resources and
therefore cannot be permitted as an account option. However, Tarika Technologies
can provide chat rooms that meet most users' needs and run without hindering system
performance at a small charge.
Background Running Programs
and Cron Jobs
Tarika Technologies may allow programs to run in the background. These programs
will be considered on an individual basis and Web Hosting and Ecommerce customers
will incur extra charges based on system resources used and operational maintenance
needed. If you wish to run background programs please contact Tarika Technologies
at support@tarikagroup.com so that we can arrange set-up.
IRC
Tarika Technologies does not allow IRC or IRC bots to be operated by Web Hosting
and Ecommerce customers.
Software Distribution

purposes of distributing software and/or multimedia products. If you wish to distribute
software and/or multimedia files, please sales@tarikagroup.com to make special arrangements.
Multimedia Files
Multimedia files are defined as any graphics, audio, and video files. Tarika Technologies
Web Hosting and Ecommerce accounts are not to be used for the purposes of distributing
and storing unusual amounts of multimedia files. Any Web site whose disk space usage
for storing multimedia files exceeds 70% of its total usage, in terms of total size
or number of files, will be considered to be using an unusual amount of multimedia
files.
Databases
Any database stored on Tarika Technologies' Web Hosting and Ecommerce servers will
be limited in size to 10% of the total disk space allotted for that particular domain's
plan/web hosting account.
B. Tarika Technologies
Dedicated Server Customer Restrictions
The following Terms of Use apply only to Tarika Technologies' Dedicated Server customers,
and supplement the terms in sections C and D that apply to all Tarika Technologies
customers:
Customer Security Responsibilities
The customer is solely responsible for any breaches of security affecting servers
under customer control. If a customer's server is involved in an attack on another
server or system, it will be shut down and an immediate investigation will be launched
to determine the cause/source of the attack. In such event, the customer is responsible
for the cost to rectify any damage done to the customer's server and any other requirement
affected by the security breach.
IRC
Tarika Technologies allows Dedicated Server customers the use of IRC inside the
Tarika Technologies network as long as the use of IRC on a Tarika Technologies server
does not violate any of the other terms of these TOU. As a policy, Tarika Technologies
will not provide vanity IRC reverse DNS records. To enforce this policy Tarika Technologies
does not turn the reverse address of IPs over to the customer. Authority over this
information remains with Tarika Technologies.
Billing for Network Resources
The customer understands that the customer is responsible for paying for any network
resources that are used to connect the customer's server to the Internet. The customer
may request that the customer's server be disconnected from the Internet, but the
customer will still be responsible for paying for any network resources used up
to the point of suspension or cancellation.

Web sites. In general, the Internet is neither more nor less secure than other means
of communication, including mail, facsimile, and voice telephone service, all of

Tarika Technologies urges its customers to assume that all of their on-line communications
are insecure. Tarika Technologies cannot take any responsibility for the security
of information transmitted over Tarika Technologies' facilities. Additional details

Tarika Technologies' Privacy Statement located under Privacy Policy.
Customer Responsibility
Customers are required to use the Tarika Technologies network responsibly. This
includes respecting the other customers of Tarika Technologies. Tarika Technologies
reserves the right to suspend and/or cancel service with any customer who uses the
Tarika Technologies network in such a way that adversely affects other Tarika Technologies
customers. While Tarika Technologies may monitor its service electronically to determine
that its facilities are operating satisfactorily, as a general practice, Tarika
Technologies does not monitor its customers' communications or activities to determine
whether they are in compliance with the TOU. However, when Tarika Technologies becomes
aware of any violation of the TOU or other user agreements, Tarika Technologies
may take any action to stop or correct such violation, including, but not limited
to, denying access to Tarika Technologies' services and equipment or to the Internet.
In addition, Tarika Technologies may take action against a customer or a customer
of such customer because of the activities of such customer. Tarika Technologies
anticipates that customers who offer Internet services will cooperate with Tarika
Technologies in any corrective or preventive action that Tarika Technologies deems
necessary. Failure to cooperate with such corrective or preventive measures is a
violation of Tarika Technologies policy and Tarika Technologies reserves the right
to take any such action even though such action may affect other customers of the
Tarika Technologies customer.
Actions Taken by Tarika
Technologies
The failure by a customer to meet or follow any of the TOU is grounds for account
deactivation. Tarika Technologies will be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes
a violation of the TOU. Tarika Technologies reserves the right to remove any account
without prior notice and to refuse service to anyone at any time. When Tarika Technologies
becomes aware of an alleged violation of its TOU, Tarika Technologies will initiate
an investigation. During the investigation, Tarika Technologies may restrict a customer's
access in order to prevent further potentially unauthorized activity. Depending
on the severity of the violation, Tarika Technologies may, at its sole discretion,
restrict, suspend, or terminate a customer's Web hosting account and/or pursue other
civil remedies. If such violation is a criminal offense, Tarika Technologies will
notify the appropriate law enforcement authorities of such violation. An unlisted
activity may also be a violation of the TOU if it is illegal, irresponsible, or
constitutes disruptive use of the Internet. Tarika Technologies does not issue credits
for outages incurred through service disablement resulting from TOU violations.
