Goals
and Purpose: It is the purpose of PressEnter, and of our suppliers
and of the Internet generally, to advance education, research, economic
development, and public service by providing a medium for the exchange
of information.
Acceptable Use: Use that is consistent with these goals is
acceptable. Use directly supporting approved uses is acceptable.
Unacceptable Use: Communications that violate state, federal,
or international laws are unacceptable. Activities that interfere
with the ability of others to make effective use of the network
are unacceptable. Using the network in a harmful or harassing manner
is unacceptable. If an issue concerning acceptable use is in doubt,
the usage should be considered unacceptable until the administration
of PressEnter has made a decision. Please note that PressEnter
reserves the right, under circumstances that PressEnter deems appropriate,
to terminate the account and/or access rights of any client that
PressEnter believes is an offender of the Unacceptable Use Policy
as discussed above.
All clients of PressEnter are responsible for the communications
and usage of this system originating with their own accounts.
Clients are expected to take all reasonable measures, given the
constraints of technology and management practices, to ensure that
traffic entering PressEnter from other networks conforms to this
use policy. Conversely, members and clients are similarly expected
to disallow traffic from their organizations that violates the policies
of connecting networks that may carry traffic from PressEnter.
Some services from PressEnter are subject to terms imposed by others
involved in providing those services, and it is PressEnter's policy
that each client observe the same terms. For example, DSL service
from our provider may be subject to a notice requirement for cancellation
and the same requirement will apply to the client (i.e., if PressEnter
is required to give at least 14 days notice to cancel DSL or DSL
charges, then the PressEnter client using DSL will give us the same
notice).
Caution: While PressEnter is an effective network for its purposes,
it is not and should not be considered a secure network, and should
not be relied upon for transmitting confidential or sensitive information
without first properly securing such information.
The above statements of policy are not meant to be exhaustive. PressEnter
is a commercial enterprise. We accept funds from government, municipal,
or other public agencies as fee for service, not as grant or subsidy.
The administration of PressEnter will be the final arbiter of any
policy issue, limited only by applicable law.
There. That wasn't so bad, was it?
You can find additional guidance about using the Internet online
at PressEnter, and in many books and magazines available at libraries
and bookstores.
PressEnter makes no guarantee, expressed or implied, regarding the
suitability of Internet service for a particular purpose or application.
PressEnter reserves the right to impose connection limits on accounts.
PressEnter does not provide nor does it charge customers for telephone
service, and under no circumstances will PressEnter pay customer
telephone company charges.
