Customers of Maxnet shall avoid unnecessary network traffic and interference with other users.

A. SPAM
Unsolicited advertising by Maxnet customers is strictly prohibited. For the purpose of this Policy, "unsolicited advertising" includes any transmission that describes goods, products, or services and that is initiated by the vendor, provider, retailer, or manufacturer of the described goods, products, or services, or by a third party retained by, affiliated with, or related to the vendor, provider, retailer, or manufacturer.

This prohibition does not include either
(i) discussions of a product or service's relative advantages and disadvantages by users of those products or services (unless the user is also the vendor, provider, retailer, or manufacturer, or related to or affiliated with the vendor, provider, retailer, or manufacturer),

(ii) responses to questions, but only if such responses are direct replies to those who inquired via electronic mail, or

(iii) mailings to individuals or entities on a mailing list so long as the list is double opt-in and opt-out functionality.

B. OFFENSIVE AND/OR CRIMINAL ACTIVITY
Customers shall not stalk others, post, transmit, host on a server or display on a website any unlawful, threatening, abusive, fraudulent, hateful, defamatory, malicious, obscene and/or pornographic content.

Any communication, posting or transmission that commits or encourages conduct that would constitute a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability, or otherwise violate any local, national, or international law is strictly prohibited.
