Acceptable Use and Content

SuperForums is a general audience forum hosting service.  We do not allow forums which host or promote pornography, software piracy, warez, hacking, spamming, denial of service, racially offensive content or any other illegal content.  Forums, Links, Images, and any other content deemed in violation of this policy by SuperForums will be removed from our servers without notice. Abusive behavior of any type will not be tolerated.  Illegal acts will be reported and prosecuted and SuperForums will fully cooperate with law enforcement authorities at their request.

Your Responsibilities

You are responsible for making sure that we have your current and correct contact information on file, by frequently logging into your account. As a member of SuperForums you are required to always maintain a valid, working e-mail address with which we can contact you when needed. We reserve the right to send announcements and or other notices relating your forum  hosting account. Not being able to contacting you through your email address on file may be considered ground for termination of your account.
You are also responsible for all your forum content and transmitting our acceptable use policy to your members. If behavior of any of your members result in a breach of our acceptable use policy, you are expected to take the appropriate actions against that member. No doing so may be considered ground for termination of your account.

Our Responsibilities

We will make every reasonable attempt to avoid unexpected server downtime and to ensure that all accounts are well taken care of. We cannot guarantee or predict server downtime. Any network problem, or outage, is not covered under any guarantee or warranty and will not be grounds for reimbursement for any subsequent financial damages or losses.  ForumZ.cc makes every attempt to ensure that your forum data is safe and backed up, however, we are NOT responsible for any subsequent data loss or theft.

Advertising on Forums

All free forums at SuperForums are advertising supported.  We reserve the right to place up to six (6) advertising units on each forum page.  An advertising unit is defined for the purposes of this agreement as a graphical page element promoting a site or service that is not part of our network of free sites. Non-promotional static text links are not considered to be advertising, and are hence not included as an advertising unit. Up to two of ad units may appear in a prominent spot at the top of the page, while the remaining ones may be placed on the page footer, below the actual forum.  Ad units may be removed by upgrading to one of our ad-free hosting plan when available.  Any attempt to disable these ads will result in an immediate account termination. 
Directly contacting our advertisers in any way regarding our account(s) is strictly forbidden and may result in your account termination, with or without notice.

Search Engines and Search Spiders

Search engines are a benefit to everyone. They bring in new forum traffic for us, and new members for you. They also help to target the ads that we display on our forums to pay for the service. As a result of this mutual benefit, you are not allowed to use the phpBB banning facility to block these spiders from your hosted forum. The search engine spiders are treated as unregistered users and will "see" the same content as unregistered guests. If you do not wish to have your forum spidered, please make set all of your forums to require registration in order to read messages. Repeated attempts to ban search engine spiders will result in the immediate removal of your forum.

Abandoned Forums

The key to running a successful forum is a strong Admin presence.  We require that as an admin you visit your forum at least once every seven days in an effort to ensure the legal and Terms of Service compliant use of your forum. We also require that our hosted forums be active in order to be hosted with our free service. We consider a forum to be abandoned if no new posts have been made during any given 30 day period. Forums determined to be abandoned will be removed at the discretion of SuperForums staff. You may apply for a variance of this rule if you feel your forum requires an exception. Only a SuperForums administrator can grant a variance to the activity rule.

Our Privacy Policy

If you are concerned about the way we may handle your personal information, please read our Privacy Policy at http://www.superforums.org/privacy.sf
