Due to the potentially destructive and detrimental effects of CGI scripts, Denver Web Host has established the following guidlines governing the user of CGI scripts on its servers.
CGI-BIN scripts submitted for placement on Denver Web Host's Web servers can only be used by current Denver Web Host customers and associated with links on their local sites. Any outside links to your CGI-BIN scripts (without prior approval) will be considered justifiable cause for your notification of the deletion of the said script from the CGI-BIN directory.
Denver Web Host's technical staff reserves the right to review all CGI-BIN script files for proper formatting of system resource paths, security holes that may cause harm to the functioning or data of the server, and other logistical considerations such as testing the script to note the amount of system resources taken up or used by said submitted program.
Denver Web Host reserves the right to refuse to allow executable any file(s) considered by its technical staff to be one of the following:
- Nonfunctional
- Hazardous to the present system configuration
- Requiring what is determined to be an excessive amount of system resources
- Created with the intention of probing or making unauthorized system calls to the server
- Copyrighted material not authorized for public use
- Anything associated with an illegal activity as prescribed by the laws of the United States of America and the city and state of Denver, CO USA.
Denver Web Host is not liable for any system faults or unintentional deletes of CGI-BIN files due to mishaps, system failure or acts of God. Backup copies of all scripts and associated files are the responsibility of the submitter, site owner or administrator.
