This Acceptable Use Policy specifies the actions prohibited by Selcom Systems Limited ("Selcom") to users of the Selcom Network. Users may be defined as "customer or anyone who uses or accesses the Selcom Network or Internet service". Selcom reserves the right to modify this Policy at any time, effective upon posting of the modified Policy to this URL. Any modifications to this Policy will be made when Selcom Systems Limited feels it is appropriate and it is the User's responsibility to ensure their awareness of any such changes. Illegal Use The Selcom Network may be used only for lawful purposes. Transmission, distribution or storage of any material in violation of any applicable law or regulation is prohibited. This includes, without limitation, material protected by copyright, trademark, trade secret or intellectual property right used without proper authorisation, and material that is obscene, defamatory, constitutes an illegal threat, or violates export control laws. The Network The user acknowledges that Selcom is unable to exercise control over the content of the information passing over the Selcom Network. Therefore, Selcom is not responsible for the content of any message whether or not the posting was made by a Selcom customer. The Selcom Network may be used to link into other networks worldwide and the user agrees to conform to the acceptable use policies of these networks. In addition the user undertakes to conform to the Internet protocols and standards. The user may not circumvent user authentication or security of any host, network, or account (referred to as "cracking" or "hacking"), nor interfere with service to any user, host, or network (referred to as "denial of service attacks"). Without prejudice to the foregoing, Selcom considers that any application that overloads the Selcom Network by whatever means will be considered as making profligate use of the Selcom Network and is as such NOT allowed. Use of IP multicast other than by means provided and co-ordinated by Selcom is likewise prohibited. Users who violate systems or network security may incur criminal or civil liability. Selcom will fully co-operate with investigations of suspected criminal violations, violation of systems or network security under the leadership of law enforcement or relevant authorities. System and Network Security Violations of system or network security are prohibited, and may result in criminal and civil liability. Selcom will investigate incidents involving such violations and will involve and will co-operate with law enforcement if a criminal violation is suspected. Examples of system or network security violations include, without limitation, the following :
It is explicitly prohibited to send unsolicited bulk mail messages ("junk mail" or "spam") of any kind (commercial advertising, political tracts, announce-ments) etc. It is also explicitly prohibited to allow others to send unsolicited bulk mail messages either directly or by relaying through the Users systems. For the avoidance of doubt, users must ensure that their systems cannot be relayed through. Users may not forward or propagate chain letters nor malicious e-mail. A User may not solicit mail for any other address other than that of the user, except with full consent of the owner of the referred address. Complaints regarding Illegal Use or System or Network Security issues, Email abuse or Spamming should be sent to abuse@selcom.co.uk Indirect or attempted violations of this policy, and actual or attempted violations by a third party on behalf of a Selcom customer or a customer's end user, shall be considered violations of this policy by such customer or end user. |
