Acceptable Use Policies (AUP)
We
at CountryNet understand how important it is to your
home or business that your high-speed Internet service
be safe and reliable. It is with this purpose in mind
that CountryNet requires each participant to comply
with established policies for the shared network.
Policies include, but are not limited to, the
following. Participants agree:
-

to connect to CountryNet equipment for which

manner.

Not
to intentionally cause harm to any CountryNet

To
maintain appropriated virus, worm, and etc
protective software on personal equipment.
Failure to do so may cause damage to the
network and can result in suspension of
service until such problem can be eliminated.
-
That
spamming is harmful to the network and thus
each participant will not participate in
sending or receiving masses of unsolicited
messages. Such activity can result in
suspension of service.

That
the Internet has sites with material
inappropriate for minors. Many sites contain
information that may be obscene or harmful.
Network participants will not hold CountryNet
responsible for transmission of any such
obscene, offensive, or harmful material.
CountryNet does not filter Internet
transmissions except for CAMPnet sponsored
public access computers. However, each
CountryNet participant is encouraged to select
and install such filter software on person
equipment. Links to several filtering choices
can be found at www.countrynet.net.
