This policy may change from time to time, so please check back periodically to review this information.

Personally-Identifiable Information:

In providing services, Advanced Stream may collect personally identifiable information, such as your e-mail address, name, home or work address or telephone number. In other instances, Advanced Stream collects anonymous demographic information that is not unique to you, such as your ZIP code, age, gender, preferences, interests and favorites. Advanced Stream receives personal information from users of the Advanced Stream only when such information is provided voluntarily, such as when users login, register or enroll for services, send e-mail to us, post other communications, or provide credit card information for a purchase from Advanced Stream or a third party.

When you provide personally-identifiable information to Advanced Stream, it will be used to fulfill your specific request. Absent any instructions from you, Advanced Stream may use information you provide to inform you about additional services and products offered by Advanced Stream and other goods and services providers with whom Advanced Stream has relationships. Advanced Stream will not, however, sell or trade your personally identifiable information unless authorized or legally required to do so. Advanced Stream does not associate sensitive data, such as your race, religion, or political affiliations, with personally identifiable information. Advanced Stream takes precautions to segregate any sensitive data you may provide that reference your race, religion, sexual orientation, ethnicity, or political affiliations.

In those instances when you may provide Advanced Stream with credit card or other ordering information via the web, Advanced Stream protects and secures this information by employing commercially customary web-based security and encryption protocols, examples of which include Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and Secure Electronic Transaction (SET). On those sites where you voluntarily offer any feedback, data, answers, questions, comments, suggestions, ideas or the like, Advanced Stream will treat that portion of the information as non-confidential and non-proprietary and, except as otherwise expressed in this privacy statement, Advanced Stream assumes no obligation to protect such information from disclosure.

Although Advanced Stream takes commercially reasonable steps to protect your information, please keep in mind that if you directly disclose personally identifiable information or personally sensitive data through communications services, such as chats, communities, instant messaging, or other services provided by Advanced Stream or third parties, this information may be collected and used by others. Advanced Stream encourages you to review the privacy statements of websites you choose to view so that you understand how those websites collect, use and share your information. Advanced Stream is not responsible for the privacy statements or other content with respect to any third-party websites.

Generic Information:

In general, Advanced Stream gathers some generic information automatically. Generic information does NOT reveal the identity of the visitor. It usually includes information about the Internet address assigned to your computer, the number and frequency of visitors, and the parts of the Advanced Stream Sites/Services visited or utilized. Advanced Stream gathers this information for the limited purpose of determining customer service and website needs. We accomplish this by using certain technologies, including “cookies” (a technology that can be used to provide the visitor with tailored information about Advanced Stream services). Advanced Stream does not combine information collected in this way with any personally-identifiable information. You can set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie and you can refuse it.

For the limited purposes of accomplishing such cooperation and measures and in compliance with applicable laws, Advanced Stream may be required to disclose personally identifiable information. In addition, Advanced Stream may elect to monitor the areas of communication of any kind (i) to satisfy any law, regulation, or government request; (ii) if such disclosure is necessary or appropriate to operate Advanced Stream; or (iii) to protect the rights or property of Advanced Stream or others. Advanced Stream reserves the right to sell or transfer your information (including , but not limited to name, address information, and other information you provided to Advanced Stream) to a third party that may purchase Advanced Stream’s operations or assets, provided such acquirer agrees to adhere to the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy. Otherwise, Advanced Stream in no way sells any information to any outside or third- party vendor.

Advanced Stream may revise this AUP from time to time without prior notice by posting a new version at www.advancedstream.com. Revised versions of this AUP are effective immediately. Advanced Stream will use reasonable efforts to notify end-users and customers, however, all Users are subject to the terms and conditions of the AUP as revised from time to time whether or not any notice of revisions is provided. Users should visit this website regularly to ensure that their activities conform to the most current AUP.

There are no refunds on semi-annual or annual service prepayments regardless of level of service.

Advanced Stream’s ongoing management/and or support of the system (the Network), combined with the acceptable use practices in this Acceptable Use Policy (AUP), is intended to provide Advanced Stream’s customers and other users of Advanced Stream’s services (each a User) with a connection to the Internet, technical support and equipment warranty (the Services).

II.           Inappropriate Content

There may be content on the Internet or otherwise available through the Service that may be offensive to some individuals, or which may not be in compliance with applicable laws or regulations. Advanced Stream does not assume responsibility for the content contained on the Internet or otherwise available through the Service. Users assume the risk of accessing content through the Service, and Advanced Stream shall not have any liability for any claims, losses, costs actions, damages, suits or proceedings arising out of or otherwise relating to access to such content. Adults should remain involved with and be aware of Internet usage by their children and may want to use a program capable of restricting access to inappropriate material.

III.        Copyright Infringement Complaints and Digital Millennium Copyright Act Requirements 

Advanced Stream requires all Users to comply with U.S. copyright and related laws. Accordingly, Users may not store any material or content on, disseminate or make available for dissemination any material or content over, the Service (or any part of the Service) in any manner that constitutes an infringement of third-party intellectual property rights, including rights granted by U.S. copyright law. Using the Service for the transmission or storage of copyright-protected material without the consent of the relevant rights holders may be an infringement under U.S. copyright law and could give rise to criminal and civil liability.

Advanced Stream does not assume any responsibility for material available, transmitted, stored or otherwise accessible through the Service. However, owners of copyrighted works who in good faith believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law and resides on the Service or is made available as part of the Service may report alleged infringements by sending Advanced Stream a notification of claimed infringement that satisfies the requirements of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”) to the address listed below.

Upon receipt of a satisfactory notice, Advanced Stream will respond expeditiously to remove or disable the allegedly infringing work or disable access to it, and to notify the affected User of the Service of the removal or disabling of access.

A User who receives a notification of alleged infringement from Advanced Stream as described above, and believes in good faith that the alleged infringing works have been removed or blocked by mistake or misidentification, may send a counter-notification that complies with the DMCA to Advanced Stream at the address listed below.

Upon receipt of a satisfactory counter-notice, Advanced Stream will promptly provide a copy of the counter notification to the person who sent the original notification of claimed infringement and will follow the DMCA’s procedures with respect to a received counter notification. Consistent with the requirements of the U.S. Copyright Act, if the copyright owner does not bring a lawsuit in district court within 14 days, Advanced Stream will restore the material to its location on its network.

IV.         Violation of Agreement and AUP

Advanced Stream in its sole discretion, will determine what actions will be taken in response to a violation on a case-by-case basis. Advanced Stream may suspend, limit or terminate the Service of any User without notice if Advanced Stream determines that the User (or anyone accessing the User’s Service) has violated the Agreement or AUP. The Service of a User who engages in severe or repeat violations of this AUP will be terminated immediately. In addition, Advanced Stream may, if circumstances warrant (i) institute legal action; and/or (ii) cooperate with law enforcement authorities in bringing legal proceedings against violators.

Advanced Stream shall not be liable to User or to any third party for any damages, losses, costs or expenses of any nature caused by or arising out of the exercise of Advanced Stream’s rights under this AUP or any actions taken to enforce its terms, including but not limited to suspension or termination of the User’s Service.

Although Advanced Stream has no obligation to monitor the Services and/or the Network, Advanced Stream reserves the right to monitor bandwidth usage to operate the Service; to identify violations of the AUP; and/or to protect the Network and Users.

Violations of this AUP, notices pursuant to the DMCA, and any abuse of the Service may be reported to the following address: abuse@advancedstream.com

Advanced Stream may investigate suspected violations of this AUP, including the gathering of information from any Users involved or affected and the complaining party, if any, and examine material stored on servers and the Network.

Upon termination of the Service, Advanced Stream is authorized to delete any files, programs and data associated with the User’s account.

Advanced Stream’s Bandwidth and Network Management Policy 

Advanced Stream is designed for typical usage by typical residential and commercial users of broadband internet access services. Bandwidth is a limited, shared resource among Advanced Stream’s customers. Activity resulting in excessive or sustained bandwidth consumption may burden the network and such usage may be restricted. By using the network and the service, the User agrees to be bound by this Policy.

Advanced Stream strives to provide Users the best experience when using the internet and may use tools and techniques to deliver the service, and ensure compliance with this Policy and the Acceptable Use Policy. These tools and techniques are dynamic, like the network and its usage, and can and do change frequently. For example, these network management activities may include (i) identifying spam and preventing its delivery to User e-mail accounts, (ii) detecting malicious Internet traffic and preventing the distribution of viruses or other harmful code or content, (iii) limiting speeds during periods of extended congestion, (iv) requiring an upgrade or purchase of a different Internet service and (v) using other tools or techniques that Advanced Stream may be required to implement in order to meet its goal of delivering the best broadband Internet experience to all Users.

Users must comply with the current bandwidth, data throughput, file storage and other limitations on the Service. Users must ensure their activity does not improperly restrict, inhibit, or degrade any other user’s use of the Service, nor represent (in the sole but reasonable judgment of Advanced Stream) an unusually large burden on the network itself. In addition, users must ensure that their activity does not improperly restrict, inhibit, disrupt, degrade or impede Advanced Stream’s ability to deliver the Service and monitor the Services, backbone, network nodes, and/or other network services.

Advanced Stream does not discriminate against or prevent Users of its service from sending and receiving the lawful content of their choice; running lawful applications and using lawful services of their choice; or connecting their choice of legal devices, provided that such applications and services do not harm the network or the provision of broadband Internet access service, facilitate theft of service, or harm other users of the service. Similarly, Advanced Stream does not impair or degrade particular content, applications, services or non-harmful devices so as to render them effectively unusable, subject to the policies and procedures outlined herein.

The use of certain network management tools and techniques to conserve bandwidth may cause some Users to notice slower Internet performance, such as longer download and upload times or slower responses while surfing the Internet or playing games. The effects of network management typically will be noticeable only for a brief period of time, if at all. The network management tools and techniques employed by Advanced Stream do not and will not target specific usages or applications (such as peer-to-peer) and instead focus in a content-neutral manner on bandwidth usage in real time, with the goal of providing reasonable and equitable access to the network for all similarly situated customers. In other words, to the extent that the use of network management practices may affect the performance or other characteristics of Internet service, they are designed to affect all similarly situated customers equally.

Excessive use means bandwidth or data usage that is significantly higher than typical usage for which our network is designed. Excessive Users consume so much data that their usage could negatively impact the Service provided to other customers. In order to ensure an optimized Internet experience for all Users, data guidelines have been assigned to all Internet services, and are subject to change

Internet usage above the designated package cap may incur incremental charges to the User.

Advanced Stream collects data on User traffic pattern usage through the use of traffic management software, and reserves the right to conduct tests to improve network security, to enhance the performance of our network, and to determine whether to make available new service offerings. These technical tests are performed almost continuously and without notice.

Residential services are designed for personal use of the Internet and do not provide the type of security, upstream performance and total downstream throughput capability typically associated with commercial use. You may not run a server in connection with Advanced Stream’s residential services, nor may you provide network services to others via Advanced Stream’s residential services. Examples of prohibited uses include, but are not limited to, running servers for mail (pop3 & smtp), http, https, FTP, IRC, DHCP and multi-user interactive forums.

Commercial services are intended only for business and commercial, non-residential usages.

If Advanced Stream in its sole but reasonable discretion determines that User has exceeded the Excessive Use threshold or is using the Service in a manner significantly uncharacteristic of a typical User of the service to which User has subscribed (residential or commercial), Advanced Stream reserves the right to (a) adjust, suspend, limit or terminate Service at any time and without notice; or require the User to upgrade his service level or pay additional fees in accordance with Advanced Stream’s then-current, applicable rates and charges for such service; or (c) use any technology to be chosen by Advanced Stream at its sole discretion to limit the user’s service for purposes of conserving bandwidth.

If you have any concerns or questions regarding this AUP, please contact Advanced Stream.
