Civil Subpoena Policy

HostYourSite's Privacy Policy prohibits the release of User or account information except in limited circumstances, including with express permission from the User, as and when required or permitted by law, to conform to the edicts of the law, or to comply with legal process properly served on HostYourSite or one of its affiliates.

If you seek the identity or account information of a HostYourSite User in connection with a civil legal matter, you must fax, mail, or serve HostYourSite with a valid subpoena.

Submission of Subpoenas

HostYourSite is located in Burlington, Massachuesetts and all civil subpoenas should be served at that location or mailed or faxed to:

HostYourSite
David C. Bryson, General Counsel
70 Blanchard Road
3rd Floor
Burlington, MA 01803
E-mail: legal@hostyoursite-inc.com
Fax: (781) 998-8277

Upon the receipt of a validly issued civil subpoena, HostYourSite will promptly notify the User whose information is sought via e-mail or U.S. mail. If the circumstances do not amount to an emergency, HostYourSite will not immediately produce the User's information sought by the subpoena and will provide the User an opportunity to move to quash the subpoena in court.

Fees for Subpoena Compliance

HostYourSite will charge the person or entity submitting the civil subpoena for costs associated with subpoena compliance. Payment must be made within thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of the HostYourSite invoice. Checks should be made out to HostYourSite.

HostYourSite's subpoena compliance costs are as follows:

Research - $75.00/hour
Federal Express - Cost as Billed
Copies - $.50/page
Compact Discs - $10.00/per CD

Policies Regarding E-mail

HostYourSite will not produce the content of e-mail, as the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, 18 U.S.C. § 2701 et seq., prohibits an electronic communications service provider from producing the contents of electronic communications, even pursuant to subpoena or court order, except in limited circumstances. HostYourSite's e-mail servers do not retain deleted or sent e-mail. However, deleted e-mail may be recoverable from back-up servers for a limited time.

HostYourSite reserves the right to request a copy of the complaint and any supporting documentation that demonstrates how the HostYourSite e-mail address is related to the pending litigation and the underlying subpoena.
