WebXess Accepted Uses Policy

The Internet is a voluntary association of users interested in and willing to exchange information and data with other Internet users. At present there is no oversight group providing governance over the principles, policies or procedures for use of the Internet or the information and data accessed via the Internet.

In order to facilitate their contractual relationship the Customer and WebXess wish to define a working protocol of principles and policies and establish operating guidelines and acceptable standards of use of the Internet.

WebXess may terminate service for any violation of the policy, including violations involving single or repeat violations.

To this end the parties agree as follows:

PRINCIPLES GOVERNING ACCEPTABLE USE OF THE INTERNET BY THE CUSTOMER

1. Responsibility and Respect - The Internet is a network intended for use by mature, adult users. The Customer recognizes this principle and undertakes at all times to act with respect, courtesy and responsibility, giving due regard to the interests and rights of other Internet user groups. This general guideline carries with it the following specific responsibilities.

a) Knowledge of the Internet - The Customer agrees to obtain a basic knowledge of the Internet and its operating principles and procedures.

b) Improper Uses - The Customer will avoid violation of certain generally accepted guidelines on Internet usage such as restrictions on mass mailings, pirating or copying of software, mail bombing or other ads of attempting to deny service or access to other users, and attempts to violate security. Posting the same or similar message to one or more newsgroups (excessive cross-posting or multiple-posting, also known as "SPAM") is explicitly prohibited.

c) Compliance with Laws - The Customer will ensure that its use of the Internet complies with all applicable federal, state and local law and regulation, including but not limited to those principles of law which protect against compromise of copyrights, trade secrets, proprietary information and other intellectual property rights, libel or defamation of character, invasion of privacy, tortoise interference, and export of technical or military data to prohibited countries.

d) Validation of Information - The Customer is responsible for validating the integrity of the information and data it receives or transmits over the Internet.

e) Security - The Customer is required to protect the security of its Internet account and usage. The Customer's password will be treated as private and confidential and not disclosed to or shared with any third parties. Violations of system or network security are prohibited, and may result in criminal and civil liability. WebXess will investigate incidents involving such violations and may involve and will cooperate with law enforcement if a criminal violation is suspected. Examples of system or network security violations include, without limitation, the following:

*Unauthorized access to or use of data, systems or networks, including any attempt to probe, scan or test the vulnerability of a system or network or to breach security or authentication measures without express authorization of the owner of the system or network.

*Unauthorized monitoring of data or traffic on any network or system without express authorization of the owner of the system or network.

*Interference with service to any user, host or network including, without limitation, mailbombing, flooding, deliberate attempts to overload a system and broadcast attacks.

*Forging of any TCP-IP packet header or any part of the header information in an email or a newsgroup posting.

f) Discretion and Judgment - The Customer is expected to use discretion in the treatment and handling of Internet information and data and to take particular care to insure that adult information is not transmitted to juvenile users of the Internet.

g) Pornography - We adhere to U.S. laws and regulations regarding adult-related material of any nature.

h) Excessive CPU usages - Customers will not be allowed to use excessive amounts of CPU processing on any of our servers or face immediate suspension.
