This document sets forth the principles, guidelines and requirements of the Acceptable Use Policy of Ded9, governing the use by the Customer (\u201cCustomer\u201d) of the Ded9’s services and products (\u201cServices and Products\u201d). The Purpose of Ded9\u2019s Acceptable Use Policy, hereinafter referred to as the Terms, is to comply with all federal, state, the European Union and internationally with protecting the network security, network availability, physical security, Customer privacy, and other factors affecting the services provided by Ded9. Ded9 reserves the right to impose reasonable rules and regulations regarding the use of its services provided to all Customers and such rules and regulations are subject to change.

Any violation of the Terms may result in the suspension or termination of Customer account(s) or such other action as Ded9 deems appropriate. No credits will be issued for any interruption in service resulting from policy violations.<\/p>

VIOLATION OF ANY SECTION OF THE Terms IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED AND MAY RESULT IN THE IMMEDIATE TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION OF THE SERVICES CUSTOMER RECEIVES FROM Ded9<\/p>

Any questions or comments regarding the Terms should be directed to the abuse department.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Each Customer must use reasonable care in keeping each server or network devices attached to Ded9\u2019s infrastructure up-to-date and patched with the latest security updates. Failure to use reasonable care to protect a server may result in a security compromise by outside sources. Ded9 is not responsible for Customer server level security unless a security administration package, firewall security administration package or fully managed operating system package is contracted for and maintained. A compromised server creating network interference will result in immediate Customer notification and will be disconnected from the network immediately so as to not directly affect other Customers. No service credits will be issued for outages resulting from disconnection due directly to breached server security. The Customer is solely responsible for any breaches of security affecting servers under Customer control, including repairing the system, terminating the account(s) of the abusive user(s), and reporting occurrence of the issue to the abuse department.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Violations of system or network security are strictly prohibited, and may result in criminal and civil liability. Ded9 investigates all incidents involving such violations and will cooperate with law enforcement if a criminal violation is suspected.<\/p>

Examples of system or network security violations include, without limitation, the following:<\/p>

Introduction of malicious programs into the network or server (example: viruses, worms, Trojan Horses, key loggers, and other executables intended to inflict harm).
Effecting security breaches or disruptions of Internet communication and\/or connectivity. Security breaches include, but are not limited to, accessing data of which the Customer is not an intended recipient or logging into a server or account that the Customer is not expressly authorized to access. For purposes of this section, \u201cdisruption\u201d includes, but is not limited to port scans, flood pings, email-bombing, packet spoofing, IP spoofing and forged routing information.
Executing any form of network activity that will intercept data not intended for the Customer\u2019s server.
Circumventing user authentication or security of any host, network or account, including \u201ccracking.\u201d
Interfering with or denying service to any user, host, or network other than the Customer\u2019s host (example: denial of service attack or distributed denial of service attack).
Conduct designed to avoid restrictions or access limits to specific services, hosts, or networks, including but not limited to the forging of packet headers (\u201cspoofing\u201d) or other identification information.
Using any program script\/command, or sending messages of any kind, designed to interfere with or to disable, a user\u2019s terminal session, via any means, locally or via the Internet.
Failing to comply with the company\u2019s procedure relating to the activities of Customers on the Company\u2019s premises. Violators of the policy are responsible, without limitations, for the cost of labor to correct all damage done to the operation of the network and business operations supported by the network. Such labor is categorized as emergency security breach recovery and is currently charged at $100.00 USD per hour required. Network interference by any Customers that may cause or is currently causing network interference with another Customer will be disconnected immediately. No service credits will be issued to Customers disconnected for network violations.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Each Customer is expected execute reasonable Internet etiquette (Netiquette), the accepted behavior and expectations of the Internet community. The Customer will comply with the rules appropriate to any network to which Ded9 may provide access. The Customer should not post, transmit, or permit Internet access to information the Customer desires to keep confidential.

Email Spam. Ded9 has a zero stance policy on SPAM, Junk E-mail or UCE. Spam, Junk-mail and UCE are defined as: the sending of the same, or substantially similar, unsolicited electronic mail messages, whether commercial or not, to more than one recipient. A message is considered unsolicited if it is posted in violation of a newsgroup charter or if it is sent to a recipient who has not requested or invited the message. UCE also includes e-mail with forged headers, compromised mail server relays, and false contact information. This prohibition extends to the sending of unsolicited mass mailings from another service, which in any way implicates the use of Ded9 whether or not the message actually originated from our network.<\/p>

Block Removal. If Customer actions have caused Ded9 mail servers or Ded9 IP address ranges to be placed on black hole lists and other mail filtering software systems used by companies on the internet, Customer will be assessed a $100 charge to Customer account and $100 per hour for administrative charges incurred to remove and protect mail servers and IP ranges.<\/p>

Drop-Box Accounts. Using this network for the receipt of replies to unsolicited mass email (spam) sent from a third-party network is prohibited.
Header Forgery: Forgery of email headers (\u201cspoofing\u201d) is prohibited.
Proxy Spamming: Spamming via third-party proxy, aggregation of proxy lists, or installation of proxy mailing software is prohibited.
Relaying. Configuration of a mail server to accept and process third-party messages for sending without user identification and authentication is prohibited.<\/p>

Mass Mailings: Sending mass unsolicited email is considered spam. Unsolicited email is defined as email sent to a recipient who has not double-opted in to mailings from the Customer. Senders of mass mailings must maintain complete and accurate records of all opt-ins, including the email and its headers if applicable, and provide such records to Ded9 upon request. If positive and verifiable proof of opt-in cannot be provided, complaints from recipients of the mailing are considered proof they did not subscribe and the mailing is unsolicited.<\/p>

Mailing lists: Ded9\u2019s mass mailing rules also apply to mailing lists, list serves, or mailing services contracted for by Customer. The policy is stated as follows: An acceptable mailing list will be focused at a targeted audience that has voluntarily signed up for e-mail information using a double opt-in process or that has made their e-mail address available to Customer for distribution of information. The list must also allow for automatic removal by all end Customers with non-distribution in the future.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

By agreeing to this Terms, Customer affirms that the contact and payment information provided to Ded9 identifies Customer and that Customer is authorized to use the payment method. Commitment of fraud, obtaining services, or attempting to obtain services by any means or device with intent to avoid payment is prohibited.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
