Terms of Services
Dover Digital is committed to providing high-quality, high-speed Internet access. Our goal extends to protect our customers, the Internet Community and our network from illegal or irresponsible use or activities. These Terms and Conditions are to ensure the efficient means of operating the Internet services to fully benefit all of Dover Digital’s users. The account holder agrees that any violation of the Terms and Conditions will result in termination of service with or without prior notice and at the sole discretion of Dover Digital Pty Ltd.
Account Monitoring
Dover Digital will not monitor Internet use, in terms of mail sent or received, specific web sites visited, newsgroup or chat room postings, downloads or uploads, or any other infringement of privacy, unless we have reason to believe a user is committing illegal acts or otherwise violating published rules. However, Dover Digital reserves the right to monitor account activity if it adversely impacts Dover Digital services or customers. Dover Digital reserves the right to remove messages, suspend service, or terminate service without prior notice for any of the following listed actions, among others. Judgment is reserved for Dover Digital Pty Ltd in its sole discretion. Account holders are reminded that this agreement is a contractual limitation and Dover Digital Pty Ltd need not prove that certain conduct is illegal to take action to limit such conduct.
Account Responsibility
At the time of account registration, you will be required to provide your personal name and address information. You agree to provide the correct information about yourself on the registration form. It is not apart of Dover Digital Pty Ltd’s policy to disclose this information except in certain, exceptional circumstances. The primary account holder must agree that Dover Digital Pty Ltd may, in its reasonable good faith discretion and without notice or subpoena, provide account information to the courts, law enforcement agencies or others involved in the prosecuting claims or investigations for conduct alleged to be criminal or that would lead to civil liability.
The primary account holder agrees to be responsible for all account activity, whether or not the primary account holder is involved with or aware of the sub-account use. A violation of this agreement by the Primary Account Holder or any sub-account holder could lead to the termination of service by Dover Digital Pty Ltd.
PROHIBITED USES AND ACTIONS
As with any community of individuals, certain rules are required to facilitate discourse and encourage use by all.
Illegal or Objectionable Behaviour
It would be impractical to catalogue all possible behaviours that are illegal or otherwise objectionable, but all behaviours that could lead to civil or criminal culpability outside Dover Digital services are also prohibited by Dover Digital.
Specifically, the following are of great concern and may lead to immediate suspension:
- Threatening to harm persons, groups of people or property.
- Defamatory comments or transmitting material that is unlawful, libellous or slanderous, invasive of another’s privacy, abusive or harassing, harmful, vulgar, or obscene.
- Transmission of confidential information about persons or companies without authorization.
- Posting messages to bulletin boards or newsgroups that are off-topic, or posting more than ten messages to a site in two hours, or posting to more than five newsgroups simultaneously.
- Transmission without permission or authorization of any copyrighted materials or files or in any way infringing on the copyrights of others.
- Providing false information on the registration form for Dover Digital , or impersonating someone else.
- “Spam” is the common term for a large quantity of unsolicited emails. Spamming is an undesirable activity in the Internet community. “Spamming” from or through Dover Digital services is strictly prohibited. Any violation of the policy regarding the sending of unsolicited email will result in the immediate termination of Dover Digital services without notice or refund, and a system “clean-up” charge per email sent.
- The sending of “Bulk” emails, even when solicited, from the Dover Digital system. We define “Bulk” email as sending of 50 or more similar messages during a single login session, regardless of session time and regardless of recipient, or sending ten or more similar email messages to the same Internet address.
- “Pyramid”, “Chain letters” and “Get Rich Quick” activities are annoying and often illegal, and are prohibited.
- Sending any computer virus through or to Dover Digital.
Inappropriate Language
Rude and vulgar language is usually not appropriate for civilized communication. Dover Digital requires that you do NOT use such language anywhere on the Internet whilst connected with Dover Digital and in particular do not use it in newsgroups or bulletin boards.
Objectionable Material
The word “content” as it applies to the Internet refers to the text, software, communications, images, sounds and other information provided online. The Internet is a reflection of society worldwide. All types of content are available, including that which may offend you.
Dover Digital Pty Ltd is a service provider that makes the Internet accessible, and that includes access to all available content. Any search software will, on occasion, return objectionable content even when the search terms give no hint of a connection to that content. Each account user agrees to carefully search and use the Internet, and consequently takes full responsibility for what they may find. Dover Digital Pty Ltd assumes no responsibility or liability for content available online, whether provided on the Dover Digital website or that is available through the online connection provided by Dover Digital Pty Ltd.
Dover Digital Pty Ltd has the right to remove or prevent access to content that does not meet the terms of this agreement or its subjective standards. However, each account user agrees that Dover Digital Pty Ltd is not responsible or liable for any failure or delay in removing or blocking such material.
