Customer is hereby warned that some sites accessible via SkyBest allow posting, viewing, retrieval, and/or electronic mailing of materials that may be considered obscene, offensive, inaccurate, incomplete, defamatory, harmful or objectionable. SkyBest is not responsible for Customer's inadvertent or deliberate access to such material and cannot prevent access of such materials. 
• Regarding High-Speed Broadband Internet service, the company is not responsible for any external intrusion to the customer's network equipment. The customer is responsible for providing firewall protection in an effort to help prevent intrusions. Since this service is an "Always-On" connection, it is the company's recommendation that each customer has appropriate firewall protection on their equipment when using High-Speed Broadband Internet service. 
• Based upon network availability, High-Speed Broadband Internet service is a "best efforts" service, which can provide Up Stream and Down Stream speeds selected by the customer. The actual speed experienced by customers may vary and depend on several factors not limited to but including customer location, the destination on the Internet, traffic on the Internet, interference with a high frequency spectrum on the customer's telephone line and other devices that may be attached to the same cable pair.

Operation

• SkyBest reserves the right to change its services without notice including but not limited to access procedures, hours of operation, menu structures, commands, documentation and services offered.
• SkyBest reserves the right to delete Customer's personal files which have not been accessed for more than one (1) month.
• Customer understands that SkyBest's services may be interrupted for several reasons, including but not limited to malfunctions, maintenance, improvement or as required to protect network resources in the event of malfunctions or misuse. Customer understands that it may not receive advance notification of any such interruption of service. Scheduled outages will be publicized online.
• SkyBest shall not be liable for any delay in or failure to perform the services caused by circumstances entirely beyond its control such as those occasioned by acts of God or other causes or which it could not have reasonably foreseen or any other cause, which similarly impedes the provision of service.
• SkyBest reserves the right in its sole discretion to delete any information entered into SkyBest computer systems by Customer. SkyBest and its authorized representatives shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to edit publicly-viewable information.
• Customer hereby agrees that any material submitted for publication on SkyBest through Customer's Account(s) does not violate or infringe upon any copyright, trademark, patent, statutory, common law or proprietary rights of others, or contain anything obscene, objectionable or libelous.
• SkyBest, at its sole judgment, may immediately suspend Customer's access to the service upon any breach of any of the Terms and Conditions by Customer, including, but not limited to, refusal or failure to pay for services provided or disruptive online behavior.
• SkyBest reserves the right to terminate access to service for any Customer Account(s) which have been inactive for six (6) months or longer.
• SkyBest offers roaming service which allows SkyBest users to access the Internet with their SkyBest username when they are in other ISPs' areas (restricted to Info Avenue servers only). This service is restricted to 1,000 minutes per month and is included in the regular monthly charges.
• Regarding High-Speed Broadband Internet service, the company is providing DSL service on a retail basis to the customer. The customer agrees to utilize the service exclusively and not to provide access to third parties either through "sharing" or "Resale."
• Regarding High-Speed Broadband Internet service, Web Page HOSTING and caching are services prohibited with a residential DSL connection. Any evidence of the services prohibited would be a breach of these Terms and Conditions, and termination of the DSL connection would occur upon determination of these services being offered. NOTE: Additional charges will apply to businesses that utilize High-Speed Broadband Internet for Web Hosting and caching services.
• Regarding High-Speed Broadband Internet service, SkyBest assesses a "web hosting" surcharge to Internet subscribers who are designated as hosting websites for public access. A company or individual will be considered to be "web hosting" if either is hosting a website on its/his/her DSL connection for public access or has a registered domain name and DNS entry assigned to its/his/her specific IP address. Companies or individuals who have DSL service and who are designated as providing "web hosting" services will be charged the business DSL rate and a surcharge. The downstream DSL bandwidth rate will be set to 4 Mbps (megabytes per second) and the upstream DSL bandwidth rate will be set to one (1) mbps. Currently, a typical DSL circuit's upstream rate is 512 kbps. The monthly surcharge fee doubles the upstream bandwidth rate. Since the maximum upstream rate available on a DSL circuit is one (1) mbps, customers who desire higher bandwidths must purchase private-line circuits. Customers who desire greater downstream or upstream bandwidths than what is available with DSL service must purchase a private-line T1 circuit (or any combination thereof), at the tariffed T1 rates and will be assessed a web hosting surcharge per meg per month.
• SkyBest may modify these Terms and Conditions upon notice published online. Customer's use of SkyBest after such notice shall constitute Customer acceptance of such modifications.
