This acceptable use policy governs your use of the services we provide (“Hosting Services”). Your use of the Hosting Services means that you accept, and agree to abide by, all the policies in this acceptable use policy, which supplement our terms and conditions. EWEBALL LTD may modify this Acceptable Use Policy at any time without notice.

You must not allow a third party to access or use the Hosting Services. If you have purchased one of our reseller hosting packages, you can allow a third party (a “Third Party”) to access or use the Hosting Services. If you do so, they will also be regulated by this acceptable use policy. As such, you will monitor the use of the Hosting Services by a Third Party and you will procure that they abide by this acceptable use policy. A breach of this acceptable use policy by a Third Party will be deemed to be a breach of this acceptable use policy by you.

The Hosting Services are provided by EWEBALL LTD (“we”, “us” and “our”). We are registered in England and Wales under company number 16023379 and we have our registered office at 3rd Floor, 86-90 Paul Street, London, England, United Kingdom, EC2A 4NE.
