1. Introduction
MaxPrecision Development's Acceptable Use Policy ("AUP") is intended to help enhance the use of
the Internet by preventing unacceptable use. All users of MaxPrecision Development's Internet
services (the "Services") and those who pay a monthly service fee to subscribe to the
Services ("Members"), must comply with this AUP. In accordance with our
Service Agreements, we may remove any materials that, in our sole discretion, may be
illegal, may subject us to liability, or which may violate this AUP. MaxPrecision Development
may cooperate with legal authorities and/or third parties in the investigation of any
suspected or alleged crime or civil wrong. Your violation of this AUP may result in the
suspension or termination of either your access to the Services and/or your MaxPrecision Development
account or other actions as detailed in Section 3. This AUP should be read in conjunction
with our Service Agreements and other policies.
2. Violations of MaxPrecision Development's Acceptable Use Policy
The following constitute violations of this AUP:
a. Illegal use - Using the Services to transmit any material (by email, uploading, posting, or
otherwise) that, intentionally or unintentionally, violates any applicable local, state,
national or international law, or any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder.
b. Harm to minors - Using the Services to harm, or attempt to harm, minors in any way.
c. Threats - Using the Services to transmit any material (by email, uploading, posting, or

d. Harassment - Using the Services to transmit any material (by email, uploading, posting, or

e. Fraudulent activity - Using the Services to make fraudulent offers to sell or buy
products, items, or services or to advance any type of financial scam such as "pyramid
schemes," "Ponzi schemes," and "chain letters."
f. Forgery or impersonation - Adding, removing or modifying identifying network header
information in an effort to deceive or mislead is prohibited. Attempting to impersonate any
person by using forged headers or other identifying information is prohibited. The use of
anonymous remailers or nicknames does not constitute impersonation. Using deliberately misleading
headers ("munging" headers) in news postings in order to avoid spam email address collectors is
allowed.
g. Unsolicited commercial email/Unsolicited bulk email - Using the Services to transmit any
unsolicited commercial email or unsolicited bulk email. Activities that have the effect of
facilitating unsolicited commercial email or unsolicited bulk email whether or not that email is
commercial in nature, are prohibited.
h. Unauthorized access - Using the Services to access, or to attempt to access, the accounts of
others, or to penetrate, or attempt to penetrate, security measures of MaxPrecision Development's
or another entity's computer software or hardware, electronic communications system, or
telecommunications system, whether or not the intrusion results in the corruption or loss of
data.
i. Copyright or trademark infringement - Using the Services to transmit any material (by email,
uploading, posting, or otherwise) that infringes any copyright, trademark, patent, trade
secret, or other proprietary rights of any third party, including, but not limited to, the
unauthorized copying of copyrighted material, the digitization and distribution of photographs
from magazines, books, or other copyrighted sources, and the unauthorized transmittal of
copyrighted software.
j. Collection of personal data - Using the Services to collect, or attempt to collect, personal
information about third parties without their knowledge or consent.
k. Reselling the services - Reselling the Services without MaxPrecision Development's authorization.
l. Network disruptions and unfriendly activity - Using the Services for any activity which
adversely affects the ability of other people or systems to use MaxPrecision Development's
Services or the Internet. This includes "denial of service" (DoS) attacks against another
network host or individual user. Interference with or disruption of other network users, network
services or network equipment is prohibited. It is the Member's responsibility to ensure that
their network is configured in a secure manner. A Member may not, through action or inaction,
allow others to use their network for illegal or inappropriate actions. A Member 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.
m. News - MaxPrecision Development Members should use their best judgment when posting to any
newsgroup. Many groups have charters, published guidelines, FAQs, or "community standards"
describing what is and is not considered appropriate. Usenet can be a valuable resource if used
properly. The continued posting of off-topic articles is prohibited. Commercial advertisements
are off-topic in most newsgroups, especially regional groups not specifically named for such.
The presence of such articles in a group is not indicative of the group's "intended" use. Please
familiarize yourself with basic Usenet netiquette before posting to a newsgroup.
