hostultra new 35meg storage, a question

[we647]

im an admin at a few boards and i post alot of the info i get from here and other places to these forums,


one of the posters was wondering exactly what belongs to them and what belongs to u after they signup, upload. than what do u do with that info.

Correct me if I'm wrong but basically this means whatever I put up there is free for 35Mb to do what they please with...?

[jmiller]

Well, you should be using the edit function.

 

[we647]

why, the thread has merits. just like your does about popups,trying to dl exes in those popups,


do u own the stuff upload,even if its private? the way thats worded u wont. or are u a musican saving a great song. well host ultra in theory could glaim its thiers and sell it to someone else.

I think you will find many that have that. I remember there was a mass "walkout" from Geocities a couple of years ago. They appear to have modified it a bit now as I just checked

If you get bored, take a look at the TOS of a few other hosts and see if they have something similar.

Uhhh.. I don't like this part of the fine print. I knew it sounded too good to be true.

Thanks MisterMan, if it isn't for you, I will go sign up right away, but it seems that this web host is very nasty.

 

[HostUltra]

this is a standard terms of service that is used by most web hosts

currently we do nothing with the info you provide
except for checking for false accounts with fake names/addresses

i dont understand what the problem is here
if you dont agree to the terms dont sign up

 

[we647]

thanks for the responce

thanks, ill post the info back.

just wonder in the future u might do something with that info?

currently we do nothing with the info you provide
