​

4. Intent

Unless produced by WISP, the information Customer accesses or receives by using the service or information sent to Customer by other users is provided, entered, or posted by the users and is not reviewed, controlled, examined, verified, or endorsed by WISP The data and information Customer sends and receives may be subject to privacy- and security-invading activities including, but not limited to, eavesdropping, electronic trespassing, “sniffing,” “spamming,” “nuking,” “hacking,” “spoofing,” imposture, breaking passwords, harassment, fraud, forgery, and system contamination including use of viruses, “worms,” and “Trojan” applications causing unauthorized, damaging, harmful access and/or retrieval of information and data on Customer’s computer and other forms of activities that may even be considered unlawful. Information and data may also not reach its destination or may reach an erroneous address or recipient.

​

CUSTOMER IS ADVISED NOT TO USE OR RELY ON THE SERVICE AND INFORMATION RELATED THERETO FOR “CONTENT SENSITIVE” OR “MISSION CRITICAL” APPLICATIONS AND USE. “CONTENT SENSITIVE” MEANS ANY INFORMATION OR DATA CUSTOMER DOES NOT WISH TO BE FREELY ACCESSIBLE AND GENERALLY AVAILABLE TO INTERNET USERS. “MISSION CRITICAL” APPLICATIONS AND USE ARE THOSE WHERE CONTINUOUS OPERATION IS CRITICAL TO AN INDIVIDUAL OR COMPANY AND WHERE HARM OR DAMAGE MAY BE CAUSED IF ANY DOWNTIME WOULD HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON THAT INDIVIDUAL OR COMPANY.

​

5. Security, And File and Print Sharing

WISP’s facilities are used by numerous service subscribers. As a result, there is a risk that Customer could be subject to “eavesdropping.” This means that other service subscribers may be able to access and monitor Customer’s use of the service. This risk of eavesdropping exists not only with WISP’s facilities, but also on the Internet and other services to which access is provided as part of the service. Because of this risk, any sensitive or confidential information sent by Customer is sent at the Customer’s sole risk, and WISP shall have no liability whatsoever for any claims, losses, actions, damages, suits, or proceedings arising out of or otherwise relating to such actions by Customer.

​

6. FTP/HTTP Service Setup

Customer should be aware that when using the service to access the Internet or any other online network or service, there are certain applications, such as FTP (File Transfer Protocol) server or HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol) server, which may be used to allow other service users and Internet users to gain access to Customer’s computer. If Customer chooses to run such applications, Customer should take the appropriate security measures. WISP shall not have any liability whatsoever for any claims, losses, actions, damages, suits, or proceedings resulting from, arising out of, or otherwise relating to the use of such applications by Customer, including without limitation, damages resulting from others accessing Customer’s computer.

​

7. Local Area Network (LAN) in that each Customer is a node on the network

As such, users outside the Customer’s home may be able to access the Customer’s computer. It is important that the Customer take appropriate steps to protect their information on the computer from being accessed by others. To this end, we encourage Customers to acquire a firewall, utilize virus protection, and implement other security measures the Customer deems necessary to protect the integrity of the data on Customer’s computer. In addition, some software includes capabilities that permit other users across a network, such as the service and the Internet, to gain access to the Customer’s computer and to the software, files, and data stored on the computer. Operating systems can include file sharing and print sharing capabilities which, when enabled, will permit other users to gain access to the Customer’s computer even if the Customer is not using the service. Notwithstanding the foregoing recommendations, Customer hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Customer’s use of the service is at the Customer’s own risk, and WISP shall not have any liability whatsoever for any claims, losses, actions, damages, suits, or proceedings arising out of or otherwise relating to such use by the Customer.

​

​

10. Service Eligibility

WISP or any of its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, or assigns, may refuse the use of, and participation in, the service to anyone at any time, in its sole discretion. (b) Receiving files from third parties, via any application (i.e., email) may be harmful. Before receiving any files from any user, and even if the account from which the file transfer notice is sent looks familiar to Customer, it is strongly recommended that Customer verifies that the person sending Customer these files is indeed the person Customer thinks he or she is, for example by asking for some kind of information known only to the Customer and such other person. Please make sure not to receive files from users Customer does not trust, from users Customer is not sure they are whom they say they are, or whenever Customer is not sure Customer wants to receive the files. (c) If WISP identifies that a certain IP address/block is the source of illegal network activity, such as hacking, DDOS-Distributed Denial of service attacks, and SYN flood, WISP may block Internet access to/from that IP address/block without any advance notice.
