Goals:
AIS' goals are to protect network resources, preserve the privacy and security of AIS,
customers, dealers, and maximize the utility of AIS and the Internet, while recognizing
AIS' position in the Internet community as a whole. Interpretation:
The provisions of this Policy are intended as guidelines and are not meant to be
exhaustive. Generally, conduct that violates law, regulation, or the accepted norms of the
Internet community, whether or not expressly mentioned in this Policy, is prohibited. AIS
reserves the right at all times to prohibit activities that damage its commercial
reputation and goodwill.
Security:
Any "denial of service" attacks, any attempt to breach authentication
or security measures, or any unauthorized attempt to gain access to any other account,
host or network is prohibited, and will result in immediate termination of service or
affiliation with AIS, which may be without notice.
Email And Usenet News:
Using any AIS account or server to send duplicative, unsolicited e-mail messages
(commercial or otherwise), or to collect the responses from unsolicited e-mail, is
prohibited. Similarly, using any AIS account or server to post advertisements or messages
that violate the charter of any newsgroup or mailing list is prohibited.
AIS reserves the right to make the determination whether a
given message violates the newsgroup or mailing list charter. In most cases AIS will defer
to the judgment of the newsgroup or mailing list moderator or administrator.
Commercial messages that are appropriate under the charter of
a newsgroup or mailing list, or that are expressly solicited by the recipients, are
permitted.
Conduct in connection with e-mail or Usenet news that is an
obvious nuisance (such as sending of unsolicited commercial email or "mail
bombing") or that would be unlawful in other contexts (for example, threats,
harassment, defamation, obscenity, or software piracy) is prohibited.
Falsifying addressing information or otherwise modifying
headers to conceal the sender's or recipient's identity, for the purpose of circumventing
this Policy, is prohibited. This provision is not intended to disallow the use of aliases
or anonymous re-mailers for any legitimate purpose.
Copyright, Privacy, and Intellectual Property Using an AIS
connection to commit, aid or abet any violation of copyright or intellectual property law
is prohibited. This prohibition includes publishing a private e-mail message to
third parties, by any means, without the express prior consent of the author.
Using AIS' facilities, which include but are not limited to dealer provided Web Sites, to
engage in activities that violate the Terms of Service of AIS or any other network access
provider is prohibited. For example, referring to a Web Site hosted by AIS through UCE
(unsolicited commercial email) is strictly prohibited.
REFERRING TO ANY AIS OWNED OR OPERATED WEB SITE WITH UCE
(UNSOLICITED COMMERCIAL EMAIL) IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED.
Consequences Of Violation:
Violation of this Policy by an AIS customer or dealer may result in temporary
suspension or permanent termination of service, at AIS' sole discretion. AIS also reserves
the right to hold customer or dealer monetarily liable for any damage to equipment, any
and all liabilities, losses, costs and claims, including attorney's fees asserted against
AIS, its agents, its customers, officers and employees, any loss of data resulting from
delays, and any and all service interruptions whether they be caused by AIS and its
employees or other third parties that may arise or result from any violation of this
policy.
Modification:
AIS reserves the right to add, delete, or modify any provision of this Policy at
any time without notice. Please send reports of any activity in violation of this
Policy to: abuse@aismedia.com
