Angstrom Internet Access Service provides access to information, communications, software, photos, video, graphics, music, sounds, services and other material located both on Angstrom computer servers and on the Internet ("Content"). You should be aware that the Internet contains Content, goods and services that you may find improper, inaccurate, misleading, defamatory, obscene or otherwise offensive. Such Content may not be appropriate for you or for any minors who may be accessing the Internet through your account.

As a matter of policy, Angstrom does not pre-screen Content placed on Angstrom computer servers by any of its subscribers. Moreover, Angstrom does not have the practical ability to monitor, review, or restrict access to Content on Angstrom’s servers prior to its transmission or to monitor all communications between parties. Thus, there may be Content on Angstrom servers which may violate Angstrom rules, and you may receive offensive and unsolicited Content that Angstrom cannot control.

Angstrom retains the right to remove Content from Angstrom’s servers that violates the Internet Access Agreement (including these Online Policies). In particular, Angstrom reserves the right to remove or block access to material if it receives appropriate notice that such material infringes the proprietary rights of a third party, has actual knowledge of such infringement, or is aware of facts or circumstances from which infringement is apparent. However, the Access Service provides access to users who are not a part of Angstrom Access Service and Angstrom does not have the capability to monitor, review, remove or restrict access to any Content made available by third parties on the Internet.

Accordingly, Angstrom cannot be responsible for any conduct, Content, goods, and services available on or through the Access Service. Angstrom suggests that concerned parents consider using one of the commercially available software programs capable of restricting access to sexually explicit material on the Internet. However, no parental control software is perfect. Your use of such software is solely at your own risk. Angstrom makes no warranties or representations as to the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of any parental control software or service.

Angstrom intends to respect its subscribers’ privacy and will not randomly monitor or disclose the contents of private e-mail or private chat room communications. However, Customer agrees that Angstrom has the right, but not the obligation, to monitor or disclose the contents of private communication, if Angstrom, in its sole discretion, reasonably believes that such action is necessary: to comply with applicable law or valid legal process; to protect Angstrom’s rights or property; or in emergencies when a person’s physical safety is at issue.

In addition, Angstrom reserves the right under appropriate circumstances to disclose the identity of a subscriber to third parties in response to a valid legal subpoena and to otherwise cooperate with legitimate police inquiries and lawful civil proceedings.

Angstrom does not control or take responsibility for any Content, goods, or services that independent third parties make available on or through the Access Service. Subscribers may receive blind opportunity advertisements, pyramid schemes, and other "get rich quick" schemes on or through the Access Service. These should be avoided or approached with ample skepticism. Please remember that Angstrom does not endorse, warrant, or guarantee the accuracy, completeness, usefulness, quality, or availability of any such Content, goods, or services, and your use thereof is solely at your own risk.

You should use your best judgment and exercise caution when purchasing a product or service through the Access Service. Angstrom will not be a party to, or in any way be responsible for, monitoring any purchases or other transactions between you and any other persons providing Content, goods, or services on or through the Access Service. Angstrom assumes no responsibility for any such transactions and will not mediate disputes relating to such transactions. Angstrom disclaims any responsibility for any such transactions even where the Access Service features or displays a link with a particular World Wide Web site.

Angstrom believes that once you try Angstrom, you'll never want to leave so we offer a 15-day free trial to prove it. Before your 15 day free trial expires, let us know about your experience and which payment plan you wish to use by sending e-mail to billing@angstrom.net. If Customer wishes to continue service with Angstrom notify us of your decision and set up a billing schedule, otherwise Angstrom will automatically charge your credit card for one month plus setup. If Customer does not specify a payment schedule, Angstrom will commence a monthly billing schedule, charging Customer’s account $17.95 a month. Decision to terminate Angstrom’s Access Service prior to the close of the 15 day free trial requires notification before the expiration of the trial period, otherwise Customer authorizes Angstrom to commence billing, and Angstrom will bill for one month of service plus setup.

Customer is responsible for all activities and charges associated with your account. If any unauthorized charges are made on or through your account, Customer is responsible for such charges until you notify Angstrom of a breach of security by calling Angstrom at (412) 688-8844 and change your password. Please be advised that the contact person or listed owner of the Angstrom Internet Account is solely responsible for activities conducted through, on or with their Angstrom Internet Account, including activities by other persons (including minors) whether or not authorized by such contact person or listed owner. If Customer, or someone to whom Customer has given access to an existing account, violates the Angstrom Internet Access Agreement, your account may be terminated. If your account is terminated because of violations of Angstrom’s Internet Access Agreement or Angstrom’s Online Policies, Customer will not be entitled to a refund, such forfeiture being agreed to you and Angstrom as liquidated damages and not as a penalty.

If Customer pays by credit card, you expressly authorize Angstrom to charge the credit card account number associated with your Account for any Access Service charges that accrue from billing period to billing period. Customer re-authorizes Angstrom to charge your designated credit card account each time you use the Access Service. This authorization will remain valid until you terminate your authorization in writing. Angstrom may immediately terminate your account, in Angstrom’s sole discretion, for declined credit cards, returned checks, or any other non-payment of account charges, and Angstrom reserves the right to suspend service without prior notification.

If Customer chooses to be billed by invoice, payment is due upon receipt of invoice. Accounts are in default if payment is not received within 30 days of date of invoice. Accounts unpaid for 45 days after date of invoice may have their service interrupted. If any instrument received in payment is returned to Angstrom unpaid, your account will be considered to be in default, and in addition to the amount due, Customer will be subject to a returned check charge of $25.00. If Customer’s account is canceled or interrupted for non-payment, Customer agrees to continue to pay monthly account charges. Only Customer’s written request to terminate the account will relieve him of his obligation to pay the monthly account charges.

If Customer’s account is in default, Customer is subject to an interest charge of 1.5 percent per month, or the maximum allowable rate under state law. If Customer defaults on your account, Customer agrees to pay Angstrom its reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees and collection agency fees, incurred in enforcing Angstrom rights under the Angstrom Internet Access Agreement or Angstrom’s Online Policy.

Angstrom’s dedication to customer service means that Angstrom takes seriously and attempts to respond to all complaints about its subscribers’ use of the Internet. This means complaints by both Angstrom subscribers and complaints by other Internet users. Angstrom believes that its customers should be able to enjoy full use of the Internet without interference by persons who use the Internet in an improper or unlawful manner.

In particular, Angstrom will respond to complaints that material stored on its system at the direction of one of its subscribers or for system caching purposes or to which Angstrom provides a link or other reference infringes another person’s copyright as provided for in the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (a "Copyright Complaint") or otherwise violates the criminal or civil laws of the United States, the several states or a foreign country.

C. Subscriber Counter Notice

However, if the complaint arises out of a claim that the infringing material was stored on Angstrom’s system at the direction of one of its subscribers, Angstrom shall attempt to notify the relevant Angstrom subscriber of the action taken. If the subscriber believes in good faith that the material was removed or access blocked as a result of a mistake or misidentification, that subscriber may send a counter notice to Angstrom’s agent. Such counter notice should include the following:

Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been blocked and the location on the Angstrom system where the material appeared.

A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the subscriber has a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.

The subscriber or complaining parties’ name, address and telephone number.

A statement that the subscriber consent to the jurisdiction of the U.S. District Court for the federal district in which the subscriber resides and that the subscriber will accept service of process from the complaining party or its agent.

If the complaining party is not the copyright owner, a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.

The subscriber’s physical or electronic signature.

Upon receipt of such an appropriate counter notice, Angstrom shall promptly replace the removed material and/or cease disabling access to it unless Angstrom first receives appropriate notice from the complaining party that it has filed a law suit seeking a court order to restrain the subscriber from engaging in the allegedly infringing activity. Please submit counter notices to Angstrom’s copyright agent listed above.

Please note that any person who knowingly misrepresents to Angstrom that material is infringing shall be liable to Angstrom and/or the alleged infringer for any damages (including costs and attorneys’ fees) suffered or incurred by Angstrom and/or the alleged infringer as a result of Angstrom’s relying on such misrepresentation and removing or disabling access to such material.

Similarly, any person who knowingly misrepresents to Angstrom that the material was removed or access blocked by mistake or misidentification shall be liable to Angstrom and/or the copyright owner or its authorized licensee for any damages (including costs and attorneys’ fees) suffered or incurred by Angstrom and/or the copyright owner or its authorized licensee as a result of Angstrom’s relying on such misrepresentation and replacing such removed or blocked material.
