The following are guidelines for the establishment and enforcement of XEDI Ltd.'s AUP:
XEDI Ltd. intends to provide its customers access to everything the Internet has to offer. While XEDI Ltd. is firmly committed to the principles of free speech, certain activities that may be damaging to the resources of both XEDI Ltd. and the Internet and cannot be permitted under the guise of free speech. The resources of XEDI Ltd. and the Internet are limited, and abuse of these resources by one user has a negative impact on the entire community.
We do not routinely monitor the activity of accounts except for measurements of system utilization and the preparation of billing records.
You may not use your dedicated system or virtual site to publish material, which XEDI Ltd. determines, at its sole discretion, to be unlawful, indecent or objectionable. For purposes of this policy, "material" refers to all forms of communications including narrative descriptions, graphics (including photographs, illustrations, images, drawings, logos), executable programs, video recordings, and audio recordings.
If a XEDI Ltd. account is used to violate the Acceptable Use Policy or our TOS, we reserve the right to terminate the service without notice. We prefer to advise customers of inappropriate behaviour and any necessary corrective action, however, flagrant violations of the Acceptable Use Policy will result in immediate termination of service. Our failure to enforce this policy, for whatever reason, shall not be construed as a waiver of our right to do so at any time.
As a member of our network community, you must use your Internet access responsibly. If you have any questions regarding this policy, please contact us.
The following constitute violations of this AUP:
1) Illegal use: XEDI Ltd.'s services may not be used for illegal purposes, or in support of illegal activities. XEDI (UK) Ltd. reserves the right to cooperate with legal authorities and/or injured third parties in the investigation of any suspected crime or civil wrongdoing.

7) Unsolicited commercial e-mail / Unsolicited bulk e-mail (SPAM) : XEDI Ltd. takes a zero tolerance approach to the sending of Unsolicited Commercial Email (UCE) or SPAM over our network. Very simply this means that customers of XEDI Ltd. may not use or permit others to use our network to transact in UCE. Customers of XEDI Ltd. may not host, or permit hosting of, sites or information that is advertised by UCE from other networks. Violation of XEDI Ltd.'s SPAM policy or anyone causing any of our IP space to be listed in any of the various Spam Databases will result in severe penalties. Upon notification of an alleged violation of our SPAM policy, XEDI Ltd. will initiate an immediate investigation (within 48 hours of notification). During the investigation, XEDI Ltd. may restrict customer access to the network to prevent further violations. If a customer is found to be in violation of our SPAM policy, XEDI Ltd. may, at its sole discretion, restrict, suspend or terminate customer's account. Further, XEDI Ltd. reserves the right to pursue civil remedies for any costs associated with the investigation of a substantiated policy violation. XEDI Ltd. will notify law enforcement officials if the violation is believed to be a criminal offence. First violations of this policy will result in an "Administrative Fee" of £250 and your account will be reviewed for possible immediate termination. A second violation will result in an "Administrative Fee" of £500 and immediate termination of your account. Users who violate this policy agree that in addition to these "Administrative" penalties, they will pay "Research Fees" not to exceed £175 per hour that XEDI Ltd. personnel must spend to investigate the matter.

another person's use of electronic mail services or news will result in the
immediate termination

the use of its network for the posting of messages or commercial

permitted.

This includes "denial of service" (DOS) attacks against another network host or individual user. Interference with or disruption of other network users, services or equipment is prohibited. It is the Member's responsibility to ensure that their network is configured in a secure manner. A Subscriber may not, through action or inaction, allow others to use their network for illegal or inappropriate actions. A Subscriber may not permit their network, through action or inaction, to be configured in such a way that gives a third party the capability to use their network in an illegal or inappropriate manner. Unauthorized entry and/or use of another company and/or individuals computer system will result in immediate account termination. XEDI Ltd. will not tolerate any subscriber attempting to access the accounts of others, or penetrate security measures of other systems, whether or not the intrusion results in corruption or loss of data.
15) Fraud: Involves a knowing misrepresentation or misleading statement, writing or activity made with the intent that the person receiving it will act upon it.

termination of the offending account.

services could result in suspension service.

violations of systems or network security at other sites, including cooperating with law
enforcement authorities in the investigation of suspected
criminal violations.
As our Customers are ultimately responsible for the actions of their clients over the XEDI
