23. You acknowledge that the transmission of a single, unsolicited e-mail message to a large number of recipients, or the posting of a single message to a large number of USENETs or newsgroups, whether the message is commercial in nature or otherwise, imposes a tremendous burden on the service because of its excessive use of disk space and bandwidth. A message is unsolicited if it is posted in violation of a USENET or newsgroup charter and/or if it is sent to a recipient who has not requested the message and with whom you have had no prior contact. You agree not to engage in such transmissions. If GO learns that you have in a single day, sent the same or similar unsolicited message to 50 or more recipients or 15 or more USENETs or Newsgroups, GO will warn you against such transmissions in the future. You acknowledge that subsequent to such warning, any transmission by you of an unsolicited message to 50 or more recipients or 15 or more USENETs or newsgroups on a single day will result in the immediate termination of your account. In such cases, you agree to pay GO damages of $75 to compensate GO for the costs of enforcing this provision.
24. Payment is due in advance, on the first day of each month. Accounts are in default if payment is not received within 10 days after the due date. A default account may be suspended or terminated without notice. On the 11th day if payment is not received, we will use the deposit on file, if any, to pay for that months access. If you have a Credit Card on file then we will charge the Credit Card for that months access, GO reserves the right to charge valid Credit Cards on file for any unpaid balance due on an account. If we have already taken your deposit the month before or your Credit Card was Declined, then your account will be terminated. Unpaid accounts are subject to collections where additional fees may apply.
25. Only a written request, via e-mail and/or US Mail will terminate your service, and relieve you of your obligation to pay the full monthly account charge. An act of default accelerates payments to be due immediately, as credit is no longer being extended.
26. If you default in the payment of any amounts owed hereunder, you agree to pay GO its actual expenses, including attorney and collection agency fees, plus interest and fees allowable by law incurred in enforcing its rights under these terms and conditions.
27. This service may be canceled by either party, in writing, at any time with no penalty. If you elect to terminate your service in this manner, charges will cease upon receipt by GO of your written request. The account will be prorated to this date and any credit will be applied to account only; no cash refunds will be made. In cases of advanced payment in which a discount was received no refunds or credits will be given.
28. You are authorized only for a single log-on on the system. Multiple log-ons and background processing are prohibited.
29. The web space/personal home page included with Residential accounts MAY NOT be used for Commercial/Business/Organization purposes.
30. You may for no reason disclose your password to the system. Any unauthorized use must be immediately disclosed to GO, so that proper security can be re-established.
31. You understand and agree that unauthorized access of any computer network is illegal and may be punishable by fines or imprisonment or both under Ohio and federal laws.
32. If you have a returned check you will be assessed a $25.00 penalty. We will attempt to bill your alternate payment method immediately. If collection cannot be made, your account will be suspended until payment is made and verified as not in default.
33. Unlimited access does not mean dedicated service. User agrees to allow provider to force a 10 minute idle timeout and 5 hour maximum session on their dial-up account. Attempts to defeat the idle timer using a ping bot or system tool, or the use of a redialer to automatically reconnect once disconnected is prohibited. Inactivity is defined as less than 500 bytes of data transferred between User's modem and the service. User understands that unlimited service does not mean dedicated service. Dedicated service shall be defined as an average of more than 10 channel hours a day, based on a 30 day calendar month usage report. User may be blocked and forced to upgrade to continue service if their unlimited account is used as a dedicated connection. User understands that some services may be offered as limited. Once the user has reached their limit, they shall not have access to the internet until the 1st of the next month. User will not be given and may not purchase more than one limited account in an attempt to get unlimited access on a limited service. If user wants unlimited, they must purchase a dedicated access account. The right to use the Service is not transferable. Accounts are for User's use only. User shall be responsible for the confidentiality of User's password. Loaning User's account to others, connecting a system used by multiple persons, group use of user log-ins, and consuming more than one modem line are explicitly prohibited.
