By typing in the 4-character security code and clicking the “submit” button at the bottom of the registration page, you accept these terms and conditions and acknowledge that your use of Freeservers is subject to certain limitations set forth below.  If you do not accept this agreement, do not proceed with the sign-up process.

I. For the purposes of this agreement, Freeservers, Freeservers.com, and About Web Services may be used interchangeably.

II. Freeservers.com cannot be held responsible for the content of pages hosted under our service. Freeservers does not review pages for content before they are posted and does not verify, endorse, or otherwise take responsibility for the content of any user-created pages. However, we reserve the right to remove any page from our servers which we determine is violating our rules and guidelines. Users are solely responsible for all files contained in their own directory, and can be held legally liable for the contents of their Web site.

III. Freeservers.com may terminate user accounts at any time, without notice, for conduct that violates these guidelines or for any other reason. Freeservers may terminate user accounts and delete any and all user information for conduct that Freeservers.com believes is harmful to the business of Freeservers.com or to any of its users or partners.
