Zero-Tolerance SPAM Policy
HostSonic has zero-tolerance for Clients sending unsolicited e-mail, unsolicited e-mailing, and SPAM. "Safe lists," purchased lists, and selling of lists will be treated as SPAM. Any Client who sends out SPAM will have their account terminated, and may be terminated without notice. Additionally, Clients who engage in unsolicited mailing will, at HostSonic ’ own discretion, be charged a consulting fee of two hundred fifty dollars ($250) per hour for any remedial actions that HostSonic elects to take in the event that, as a result of a Client's activities, HostSonic servers or IP space are placed in any third-party mail filtering software or blackhole lists.
To protect the IP reputation of our network, and as a proactive measure to prevent our IP space from being used to distribute unsolicited e-mail, HostSonic reserves the right to apply an SMTP filter as a precaution to accounts flagged by our Abuse Team. As long as this filter is in place, all active or newly-ordered services across the Client’s account will be placed under this filter.
To have this filter lifted, HostSonic would require the Client to pay a deposit of up to two hundred fifty dollars ($250) per server in order to be allowed to send emails. Should any SPAM complaints be received after the filter had been lifted, it would immediately be re-applied to the client’s account. So long as no SPAM complaints have been received, the deposit will be refunded upon request at the time of cancellation.
