Adult content

Because the Internet is a global communication tool, and we have clients from nearly every country in the world it is difficult to dictate what is considered “adult material.” However, it is not our function to discriminate against those who choose to utilize adult content or adult related material. This being said, there are still several reasons why 4serv Ltd has been forced to create its no adult sites policy for its virtual server users.

What does 4serv Ltd consider “Adult Material”? Examples of adult material include, without limitation, the following:

  1. Any site whose revenue is gained in part or whole from its adult content.
  2. Photos or videos showing frontal nudity on either men or women for non-scientific or non-artistic purposes.
  3. Hyperlinks to adult sites, including but not limited to sites who violate these policies.
  4. Sites that have discussion boards and share information that is ‘adult’ in nature.
  5. Sites that sell or promote ‘adult’ material, including but not limited to adult toys.

File sharing applications

All accounts in 4serv Ltd are strictly prohibited in publishing or distributing in any way links or files that are related to files that are provided through file sharing service. Whether lawful or unlawful, 4serv Ltd reserves the right to determine what is harmful to its Clients, operations or reputation.

Revisions and errata

The materials appearing on 4serv Ltd’s website could include technical, typographical, or photographic errors. 4serv Ltd does not warrant that any of the materials on its website are accurate, complete, or current. 4serv Ltd may make changes to the materials contained on its website at any time without notice. 4serv Ltd does not, however, make any commitment to update the materials.

Links

4serv Ltd has not reviewed all of the sites linked to its Internet website and is not responsible for the contents of any such linked site. The inclusion of any link does not imply endorsement by 4serv Ltd of the site. Use of any such linked website is at the user’s own risk.
