Transmission, distribution, or storage of any information, data, or material in violation of United States or state regulation or law is prohibited. Copyright, trademark, or trade secret material may not be used without the permission of its respectful owner. Child pornography is prohibited on all SMALLGOD MEDIA servers. Hate sites, warez sites, hacker sites, or sites with the intent to spam targets are prohibited on SMALLGOD MEDIA servers. Using SMALLGOD MEDIA servers to generate spam email is a direct violation and will get the site deleted without notice or refund. Any misuse of our services for any of the above purposes may result in site suspension or termination of our services.
If you are unsure whether or not your site violates our terms of service, feel free to contact us with a description before signing up for an account or publishing material as an existing customer.
SMALLGOD MEDIA will be the sole arbiter in determining violations of this provision.
Also prohibited are sites that promote any illegal activity or present content that may be damaging to any other server on the Internet.

Unwanted Material:

The following are examples of unacceptable content or scenarios which may warrent suspension of service:

  • Customer is knowingly or unknowingly hosting pornographic videos or photographs.
  • Copyrighted media such as music or videos are found to be distributed without the copyright owner's consent.
  • Running a bittorrent tracker for the purpose of distributing copyrighted material.
  • Illegal or un-licensed software or 'warez' download sites.

  • Large amounts of unsolicited email (SPAM) are sent using a customer's SMTP service or mail script.
  • An unusual spike in resource usage is detected by our systems resulting in an account far outstripping the allotted resources. To protect the customer, a site may be suspended in order to verify that this resource spike is legitimate.
