Adult Content Prohibited. |

Adult-oriented sites demand special system, network, and bandwidth requirements.
Durubata Hosting does not accommodate those extraordinarily large requirements in
its standard shared, e-commerce, reseller, and semi-dedicated hosting plans.
Therefore you may not use Durubata Hosting's services for adult-oriented and
pornography sites. This includes sites that may include sexual content, or
links to adult content elsewhere. |

site that uses Durubata Hosting's services; |
| |
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|

the page does not display any sexually explicit content and does not link to
any Web page or site displaying any sexually explicit content; and |

the page does not require a user to log in with a username or password to
access any of the Web site's content. |
| |
|
|

|
| |

adult-oriented services may be illegal. It is your sole responsibility to learn
the laws that govern what you are and are not allowed to post on your Web site.
As part of your agreement with Durubata Hosting, you must comply with all such
applicable laws.
However, Durubata Hosting cannot and does not advise you or make any
recommendations to you about the existence of any such laws in a particular
jurisdiction. Nor does Durubata Hosting advise you about how to comply with any
such laws. Furthermore, laws vary throughout the United States of America and

materials that are legal in your region. |

applicable law deems "harmful," "inappropriate," or "unsuitable" for minors
(persons under 18 years of age), then you must provide appropriate protection
to prevent minors from accessing that content. Such protection is your sole
responsibility because Durubata Hosting does not censor the content of your Web
sites and pages. |
