- Amplex Electric, Inc. (Amplex) exercises no control whatsoever over
the content of information passing through our service. Amplex makes
no warranties of any kind, whether expressed of implied for the service
it is providing. Amplex also disclaims any warranty of merchantability
or fitness for a particular purpose. Amplex will not be responsible for
damages you suffer. This includes but is not limited to: loss of
data, disclosure of data, non-deliveries, mis-deliveries, disk failures,
lack of backups, failure of backups, or service interruptions caused by
our negligence or your errors or omissions.
- Use of any information obtained via Amplex is at your own risk.
Amplex specifically denies any responsibility for the accuracy or
quality of information obtained through its services. Transmission of
any material in violation of any US or State regulation is prohibited.
This includes but is not limited to: copyrighted material, material
legally judged to be threatening or obscene, or material protected by
trade secret. You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Amplex from any
claims resulting from your use of the service which damages you or
another party.
- Sharing of dialup or wireless accounts is considered theft of
services and may result in the termination of your account without
refund.
- Except where Amplex has expressly agreed in writing to the contrary,
customers are solely and entirely responsible, and Amplex is in NO way
responsible, for the management and backup of all customer data, and all
updates, upgrades, and patches to any software that customers use in
connection with Amplex services.
- Using any Amplex account or server to send duplicative, unsolicited
e-mail messages (commercial or otherwise), or to collect the responses
from unsolicited e-mail (for example, by maintaining a spamvertised Web
site), is prohibited. Amplex reserves the right in its sole discretion
to determine whether duplicative or mass e-mail messages are
“unsolicited.” A complaint from the recipient is presumptive evidence
that the message was unsolicited. Amplex has no obligation to refer
complaints to the sender or to identify complaining parties. Conduct
that directly or indirectly encourages, permits, or relies on spamming
is included in this prohibition. Examples include failure to implement
technical or administrative measures to prevent mass unsolicited e-mail,
or providing spam “support services” such as e-mail dropboxes or sales
of spamware. Similarly, using any Amplex account or server to post
advertisements or messages that violate the charter of any newsgroup or
mailing list is prohibited. Amplex reserves the right to make the
determination whether a given message violates the newsgroup or mailing
list charter. In most cases Amplex will defer to the judgment of the
newsgroup or mailing list moderator or administrator. Commercial
messages that are appropriate under the charter of a newsgroup or
mailing list, or that are expressly solicited by the recipients, are
permitted.
- Amplex will not be liable for damages (or any other actions) due to
the release of information when attempting to comply with requests that
Amplex, in its sole discretion, believe to be valid at the time the
disclosure is made.
- Amplex reserves the right to determine who our mail servers we will
accept e-mail from. Services that send unacceptable amounts of e-mail
that we believe to be spam or use excessive resources on our system may
be blocked without notice.
- Any “denial of service” attack, any attempt to breach authentication
or security measures, any intentional release of a virus or worm, or
any unauthorized attempt to gain access to any other account, host or
network is prohibited, and will result in immediate service termination,
which may be without notice.
- Maintaining an open mail relay invites senders of mass unsolicited
commercial e-mail to exploit the server by using it for spamming.
Failure or refusal to take appropriate steps to close an open mail relay
on Amplex’s network is grounds for temporary suspension or permanent
termination of service.
- NO Unsolicited Commercial E-mail (UCE) or Unsolicited Bulk E-mail
(UBE) is permitted to be delivered to any domain for which Amplex serves
as a mail (MX) host. If you violate this policy you agree to pay to
Amplex Electric, Inc. the sum of $50.00 per message plus costs.

Federal Copyright Law. Notices of copyright infringement regarding
