Conduct, participate in, or otherwise facilitate pyramid or other illegal soliciting schemes. Take part in any fraudulent activities, including impersonating any person or entity or forging anyone else’s digital or manual signature. Invade another person’s privacy, stalk, harass, or otherwise violate the rights of others.

Collect or store personal data about other users. Use an IP address not assigned to you. Violate any other Fastwyre policy or guideline. Resell or redistribute the service to any third party via any means including but not limited to, wireless technology.

2. Harm to Minors.

You may not use the service to harm or attempt to harm a minor, including, but not limited to, by hosting, possessing, disseminating, or transmitting material that is unlawful, including child pornography or obscene material.

3. Intellectual Property Infringement.

You may not use the service to post, copy, transmit, or disseminate any content that infringes the patents, copyrights, trade secrets, trademarks, or propriety rights of any party. Fastwyre assumes no responsibility, and you assume all risks regarding the determination of whether material is in the public domain, or may otherwise be used by you for such purposes.

4. User Content.

You are solely responsible for any information that is transmitted from your IP address or your account on the web or other Internet services. You must ensure that the recipient of the content is appropriate and must take appropriate precautions to prevent minors from receiving inappropriate content. Fastwyre reserves the right to refuse to post or to remove any information or materials from the service, in whole or in part, that it, in Fastwyre’s sole discretion, deems to be illegal, offensive, indecent, or otherwise objectionable.

5. Commercial Use.

The service is designed for personal, non-business related use of the Internet and may not be used for commercial purposes. You may not resell or otherwise charge others to use the residential service. You agree not to use the service for operation as an Internet service provider, or for any other business enterprise, including, without limitation, IP address translation or similar facilities intended to provide additional access. Fastwyre Business services offer commercial Internet services.

6. Servers.

You may not operate, or allow others to operate, servers of any type or any other device, equipment, and/or software providing server-like functionality in connection with the service unless expressly authorized by Fastwyre.

7. Misuse of service.

You are responsible for any misuse of the service that occurs through your account or IP address. You must therefore take steps to ensure that others do not
gain unauthorized access or misuse the service.

8. Hacking/Attempted Unauthorized Access.

You may not use the service to breach or attempt to breach the security of another user or attempt to gain access to any organization or person’s computer, software, or data without the knowledge and consent of the such person. The equipment and the service may not be used in any attempt to circumvent the user authentication or security of any host, network, or account. This includes, but is not limited to, accessing data not intended for you, logging into or making use of a server or account you are not expressly authorized to access or probing the security of other networks or computers for any reason. Use or distribution of tools designed for compromising security, such as password guessing programs, cracking tools, packet sniffers, or network probing tools is prohibited.

9. Security.

You are solely responsible for the security of any device connected to the service, including any data stored on that device. Fastwyre recommends that you take appropriate security precautions for any systems connected to the service. You are responsible for securing any wireless (WiFi) networks connected to your Fastwyre service. Any wireless network installed by the customer or a Fastwyre representative, that is unsecured or “open” and connected to the Fastwyre network, will be deemed to be operating as an ISP and subject to the prohibition on Commercial Use set forth in Section 5 herein. You authorize Fastwyre to use measures to detect unsecured wireless networks associated with your service.

10. Disruption of service.

You may not disrupt the service in any manner. You shall not interfere with computer networking or telecommunications services to any user, host, or network, including, without limitation, denial of service attacks, flooding of a network, overloading a service, improper seizing and abuse of operator privileges, or attempts to “crash” a host.

11. Viruses, Trojan Horses, Worms, and Denial of Service Attacks.

Software or other content downloaded from the service may contain viruses and it is your sole responsibility to take appropriate precautions to protect your computer from damage to its software, files, and data. You are prohibited from posting, transmitting, or disseminating any information or software that contains a virus, Trojan horse, spambot, worm, or other harmful program or that generates levels of traffic sufficient to impede others’ ability to send or retrieve information. Prohibited conduct of this type includes denial of service attacks or similarly disruptive transmissions, as well as transmissions containing other harmful or malicious features. We may suspend your service if we detect a harmful program in order to allow you to take measures to stop the harmful program.

12. Electronic Mail.

You may not use the service to send bulk, commercial, or unsolicited (spam) email messages. Any unsolicited email, originating from any source, must not
direct recipients to any website that is part of our service, such as personal web pages, or other resources that are part of the service. The service may not be used to collect responses from unsolicited emails sent from accounts on other Internet hosts or email services that violate this Policy or the acceptable use policy of any other Internet service provider. In addition, “mail bombing,” the sending of numerous copies of the same or substantially similar messages or very large messages or files with the intent to disrupt a server or account, is prohibited. You may not reference Fastwyre in the header or body of an unsolicited email, or list an IP address that belongs to the Fastwyre network in any unsolicited email. Further, you may not take any action which implies that Fastwyre is the sponsor of any unsolicited email even if that email is not sent through the Fastwyre network. Further, forging, altering, or removing electronic mail headers is prohibited. If the service is disconnected, whether voluntarily or by termination, all user names and associated electronic email addresses may be immediately released for reuse. Upon disconnection, any mailbox contents may be immediately deleted or held in a locked state. Addresses and emails may be held until Fastwyre deletes them as part of its normal policies and procedures. There is no obligation for Fastwyre to retain or make any user name, email address, or stored email retrievable once the service is disconnected.

13. Bandwidth, Data Storage, and Other Limitations.

Fastwyre offers multiple packages of service with varying speeds and features and bandwidth usage limitations (not all packages are available in all areas). You must comply with the current bandwidth, data storage, electronic mail, and other limitations of service that correspond with the package of service you selected. In addition to complying with the limitations for specific features, you must ensure that your activities do not improperly restrict, inhibit, or degrade any other user’s use of the service, nor represent (in Fastwyre’s sole judgment) an unusually great burden on the network itself. In addition, you must ensure that your use does not improperly restrict, inhibit, disrupt, degrade, or impede Fastwyre’s ability to deliver the service and monitor the service, backbone, network nodes, and/or other network services. If you use excessive bandwidth (as determined by Fastwyre), Fastwyre may terminate, suspend, or require you to upgrade the service and/or pay additional fees.
