3 Types of Plans- Overview

Shared Hosting:  These are low-cost plans suited to small organizations with simple web sites. Windows & Linux plans available.

VPS (Virtual Private Server) - a solution between shared hosting and a dedicated server.  Offers you more control and the ability to host multiple domains. Good for bigger sites, larger databases and e-commerce apps. More than 1 VPS to a physical server.

Dedicated Servers - No one else shares your server. You can install applications, have root access, run multiple domains and large, data intensive web sites.

  Website Hosting Policies & Guidelines:
  
  
  Spamming -- Sending unsolicited bulk and/or commercial messages over the Internet (known as "spamming"). It is not only harmful because of its negative impact on consumer attitudes toward The Launch Pad, but also because it can overload The Launch Pad’s network and disrupt service to The Launch Pad subscribers. Also, maintaining an open SMTP relay is prohibited. When a complaint is received, The Launch Pad has the discretion to determine from all of the evidence whether the email recipients were from an "opt-in" email list.
  
  Intellectual Property Violations -- Engaging in any activity that infringes or misappropriates the intellectual property rights of others, including copyrights, trademarks, service marks, trade secrets, software piracy, and patents held by individuals, corporations, or other entities. Also, engaging in activity that violates privacy, publicity, or other personal rights of others. The Launch Pad is required by law to remove or block access to customer content upon receipt of a proper notice of copyright infringement. It is also The Launch Pad's policy to terminate the privileges of customers who commit repeat violations of copyright laws.
  
  Obscene Speech or Materials -- Using The Launch Pad's network to advertise, transmit, store, post, display, or otherwise make available child pornography or obscene speech or material. The Launch Pad is required by law to notify law enforcement agencies when it becomes aware of the presence of child pornography on or being transmitted through The Launch Pad's network.
  
  Defamatory or Abusive Language -- Using The Launch Pad's network as a means to transmit or post defamatory, harassing, abusive, or threatening language.
  
  Forging of Headers -- Forging or misrepresenting message headers, whether in whole or in part, to mask the originator of the message.
  
  Illegal or Unauthorized Access to Other Computers or Networks -- Accessing illegally or without authorization computers, accounts, or networks belonging to another party, or attempting to penetrate security measures of another individual's system (often known as "hacking"). Also, any activity that might be used as a precursor to an attempted system penetration (i.e. port scan, stealth scan, or other information gathering activity).
  
  Distribution of Internet Viruses, Worms, Trojan Horses, or Other Destructive Activities -- Distributing information regarding the creation of and sending Internet viruses, worms, Trojan horses, pinging, flooding, mailbombing, or denial of service attacks. Also, activities that disrupt the use of or interfere with the ability of others to effectively use the network or any connected network, system, service, or equipment.
  
  Facilitating a Violation of this AUP -- Advertising, transmitting, or otherwise making available any software, program, product, or service that is designed to violate this AUP, which includes the facilitation of the means to spam, initiation of pinging, flooding, mailbombing, denial of service attacks, and piracy of software.
  
  Export Control Violations -- Exporting encryption software over the Internet or otherwise, to points outside the United States.
  
  Usenet Groups -- The Launch Pad reserves the right not to accept postings from newsgroups where we have actual knowledge that the content of the newsgroup violates the AUP.
  
  Other Illegal Activities -- Engaging in activities that are determined to be illegal, including advertising, transmitting, or otherwise making available ponzi schemes, pyramid schemes, fraudulently charging credit cards, and pirating software.
  
  Other Activities -- Engaging in activities, whether lawful or unlawful, that The Launch Pad determines to be harmful to its subscribers, operations, reputation, goodwill, or customer relations.

Placing an order for hosting services with The Launch Pad constitutes agreement to terms and conditions stated in our policies.
