Introduction
eNet's Acceptable Use Policy ("AUP") is intended
to help enhance the use of the Internet by preventing unacceptable
use. All users of eNet's Internet services (the "Services")-those
who access some of our Services but do not have accounts ("Visitors"),
as well as those who pay a monthly service fee to subscribe to
the Services ("Members")-must comply with this AUP.
We support the free flow of information and ideas over the Internet
and do not actively monitor use of the Services under normal
circumstances. Similarly, we do not exercise editorial control
over the content of any Web site, electronic mail transmission,
news group, or other material created or accessible over or through
the Services, except for certain proprietary websites. However,
in accordance with our Internet Service Agreement, we may remove
any materials that, in our sole discretion, may be illegal, may
subject us to liability, or which may violate this AUP. eNet
may cooperate with legal authorities and/or third parties in
the investigation of any suspected or alleged crime or civil
wrong. Your violation of this AUP may result in the suspension
or termination of either your access to the Services and/or your
eNetaccount or other actions as detailed in Section 3. This
AUP should be read in conjunction with our Internet Service Agreement
and other policies.
