RigidServers is not responsible for the retention of data or services that are terminated or compromised. Clients agree to refrain from attempting to access any other clients services or data without permission.

Limitations

Clients should be understanding of the limitations of their particular services, shared hosting in particular has a specific performance and functionality range. Shared MC: "Unlimited" SSD space is not a literal term, but is unmetered. Due to technological limitations servers have a finite amount of SSD space available. Clients using more space than deemed acceptable by RigidServers staff are subject to termination without refund. Clients are only allowed to use their shared hosting space for Minecraft-related files exclusively. RigidServers reserves the right to remove specific files if a node becomes too full to alleviate the problem, including but not limited to: backups, plugins, whole worlds/servers, and other files

Backups

Shared MC: Full-node backups are taken daily to prevent a hardware-related failure from resulting in a loss of data. RigidServers cannot restore individual servers from this data. Clients are responsible for their own server, world, plugin, and file backups in a proactive manner to prevent data loss. Cloud MC: Backups are not taken of this service, as of Nov 2014 RigidServers plans to add this feature in the future. Clients are responsible for any backups on and offsite to prevent data loss. Additional services: Clients should operate under the assumption that RigidServers does not have restorable backups for the service. Shared MC: CPU Usage is monitored on all nodes, and a single client's services cannot be excessive as to cause problems for other clients of RigidServers. RigidServers reserves the right to terminate any client that does not align with CPU usage limits, without warning or notification. Clients are to be aware of their services usage and alter their usage patterns to align with RigidServers hardware and systems. Infrastructure: RigidServers' network and infrastructure has limitations on bandwidth, latency, usage, and uptime. Clients are responsible for uptime of services outside our control, such as fixing errors on their MC server. Clients cannot use excessive bandwidth based on their services. Clients who receive excessive DDoS attacks or other network-based attacks will be subject to termination. RigidServers offers DDoS protection to all clients on our network. It is finite in ability and it not to be use as a comprehensive solution for clients who receive large or constant attacks.

Spam Policy

RigidServers has a no tolerance spam policy in regards to e-mails, messages, tickets, and "Instant messages" on our network and on associated networks. Our services are not permitted to serve as a platform for the transmission of messages to 3rd party vendors, public entities, and other clients.
