CacheFly reserves the right to determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, what constitutes a violation of this provision.

Individuals or entities submitting notifications of copyright infringement by a CacheFly customer (per the DMCA) to CacheFly must follow the below procedures.

Child Pornography
The use of CacheFly’s services to store, post, display, transmit, advertise or otherwise make available child pornography is prohibited. CacheFly is required by law, and will, notify law enforcement agencies when it becomes aware of the presence of child pornography on, or being transmitted through, its services.

Trial Period
The CacheFly Trial offer is restricted to the first 30 days of account activity, or until the customer has reached their plan limit. In the event a customer's usage during the first 30 days exceeds the limits of their plan, customer will be invoiced at the subscribed rate for any excess usage charges.
Actions Taken by CacheFly
The failure by a customer to meet or follow any of the AUP is grounds for account deactivation. CacheFly will be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes a violation of the AUP. CacheFly reserves the right to remove any account without prior notice and to refuse service to anyone at any time. When CacheFly becomes aware of an alleged violation of its AUP, CacheFly will initiate an investigation. During the investigation, CacheFly may restrict a customer's access in order to prevent further potentially unauthorized activity. Depending on the severity of the violation, CacheFly may, at its sole discretion, restrict, suspend, or terminate a customer's account and/or pursue other civil remedies. If such violation is a criminal offense, CacheFly will notify the appropriate law enforcement authorities of such violation. An unlisted activity may also be a violation of the AUP if it is illegal, irresponsible, or constitutes disruptive use of the Internet. CacheFly does not issue credits for outages incurred through service disablement resulting from AUP violations. CacheFly customers agree to indemnify and hold harmless CacheFly from any claims resulting from the use of our services that damages them or any other party that occur as a result of AUP violations.
