-
Amplex Electric, Inc. (Amplex) exercises no control
whatsoever over the content of information passing
through our service. Amplex makes no warranties of
any kind, whether expressed of implied for the
service it is providing. Amplex also disclaims any
warranty of merchantability or fitness for a
particular purpose. Amplex will not be responsible
for damages you suffer. This includes but is not
limited to: loss of data, disclosure of data,
non-deliveries, mis-deliveries, disk failures, lack
of backups, failure of backups, or service
interruptions caused by our negligence or your
errors or omissions.
-
Use of any information obtained
via Amplex is at your own risk. Amplex
specifically denies any responsibility for the
accuracy or quality of information obtained through
its services. Transmission of any material in
violation of any US or State regulation is
prohibited. This includes but is not limited to:
copyrighted material, material legally judged to be
threatening or obscene, or material protected by
trade secret. You agree to
indemnify and hold harmless
Amplex from any claims resulting from your use of
the service which damages you or another party.
- Sharing of dialup or wireless
accounts is considered theft of services and may
result in the termination of your account without
refund.
- Except where Amplex has expressly
agreed in writing to the contrary, customers are
solely and entirely responsible, and Amplex is in NO
way responsible, for the management and backup of
all customer data, and all updates, upgrades, and
patches to any software that customers use in
connection with Amplex services.
- Using any Amplex
account or server to send duplicative, unsolicited
e-mail messages (commercial or otherwise), or to
collect the responses from unsolicited e-mail (for
example, by maintaining a spamvertised Web site), is
prohibited.
Amplex reserves the
right in its sole discretion to determine whether
duplicative or mass e-mail messages are
"unsolicited." A complaint from the recipient is
presumptive evidence that the message was
unsolicited. Amplex has no obligation to refer
complaints to the sender or to identify complaining
parties.
Conduct that directly
or indirectly encourages, permits, or relies on
spamming is included in this prohibition. Examples
include failure to implement technical or
administrative measures to prevent mass unsolicited
e-mail, or providing spam "support services" such as
e-mail dropboxes or sales of spamware.
Similarly,
using any Amplex account or server to post
advertisements or messages that violate the charter
of any newsgroup or mailing list is prohibited.
Amplex
reserves the right to make the determination whether
a given message violates the newsgroup or mailing
list charter. In most cases Amplex 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.
-
Amplex will not be liable for damages (or any other
actions) due to the release of information when
attempting to comply with requests that Amplex, in
its sole discretion, believe to be valid at the time
the disclosure is made.
- Amplex
reserves the right to determine who our mail servers
we will accept e-mail from. Services that send
unacceptable amounts of e-mail that we believe to be
spam or use excessive resources on our system may be
blocked without notice.
- Any "denial of
service" attack, any attempt to breach
authentication or security measures, any
intentional release of a
virus or worm, or any unauthorized attempt to gain
access to any other account, host or network is
prohibited, and will result in immediate service
termination, which may be without notice.
- Maintaining an
open mail relay invites senders of mass unsolicited
commercial e-mail to exploit the server by using it
for spamming. Failure or refusal to take appropriate
steps to close an open mail relay on Amplex's
network is grounds for temporary suspension or
permanent termination of service.
- NO Unsolicited
Commercial E-mail (UCE) or Unsolicited Bulk E-mail
(UBE) is permitted to be delivered to any domain for
which Amplex serves as a mail (MX) host. If you
violate this policy you agree to pay to Amplex
Electric, Inc. the sum of $50.00
per message plus costs.
