  1. CREDIT CHECK AND REPORTING. I authorize PINE and its agents to obtain information about my credit history and to share that information with credit reporting If I am signing on behalf of a company, I am authorized to sign.
  1. RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE CUSTOMER.
    1. The Service shall be used primarily for non-commercial purposes only. In the case of mobile wireless, use of the Service shall be limited to personal use, and in the case of fixed wireless, ADSL or cable modem service residential use only.  PINE reserves the right to suspend or terminate Service accounts where data consumption or other evidence reasonably indicates that Customer is, or may be, using Service for substantially or entirely business, commercial, or other prohibited uses.  PINE reserves the right to establish a monthly data consumption threshold per customer at any time by changing data plans.
    2. Customer shall, at its own expense, undertake all necessary preparations required to comply with PINE’s installation and maintenance instructions and maintain its own equipment. Customer may not use the Service in a manner to violate or attempt to violate any applicable local, state, federal or international law, order or regulation, including, but not limited to:
  • Engaging in any file sharing that violates or infringes on the copyright or other rights of others.
  • Taking part in any fraudulent activities, including impersonating any person or entity or forging anyone else’s digital or manual signature.
  • Posting, uploading, or downloading child pornography.
    1. Customer may not send or receive emails or data or use the Service in a way that is harmful to, or not wanted by, other users or persons, including, but not limited to:
  • Sending unsolicited bulk or commercial e-mail messages (“spam”).
  • Invading another person’s privacy, stalking, harassing, or otherwise violating the rights of others.
  • Posting, transmitting, or disseminating content that is threatening, abusive, libelous, slanderous, or defamatory.
  • Restricting, inhibiting, or otherwise interfering with the ability of any other person to use or enjoy the equipment or the Service, including, without limitation, by posting or transmitting any information or software which contains a virus, lock, key, bomb, worm, Trojan horse, cancelbot, or other harmful feature.
  • Using an IP address not assigned to you.
    1. PINE’s Service is intended only for lawful and non-harmful purposes and primarily for Customers’ own personal, household, or family purposes, except for customers subscribed to a commercial or business plan. Accordingly, Customer may not resell, charge others, or redistribute the Service to any third party other than residents or guests in Customer’s household via any means including but not limited to wireless technology including, without limitation, to host a virtual private network service, IP address translation, public tethering, or similar facilities intended to provide additional access.  Further, Customer may not operate, or allow others to operate, servers of any type or any other device, equipment, and/or software providing server-like functionality in connection with the Service, unless expressly authorized by PINE.
    2. Customer assumes total responsibility and risk for Customer’s use of the Service and other Internet-related Services. Software or other content downloaded from the Service may contain viruses and it is Customer’s sole responsibility to take appropriate precautions to protect their computer and other connected devices from damage to their software, files and data.  Customer is solely responsible for any information that is published on the web or other Internet services. Customer must ensure that the recipient of the content is appropriate and must take appropriate precautions to prevent minors from receiving or sending unlawful, harmful, or unwanted content or violating this Service Agreement. Customer is solely responsible for the security of any device connected to the Service, including any data stored on that device.
  1. LIMITATIONS OF WIRELESS SERVICE, LIMITATIONS ON DATA CONSUMPTION, AND DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES.
    1. Bandwidth constraints of Service on mobile and wireless networks are most likely to impact Customer, due to the inherent limitations of wireless networks, including the sharing of limited radio spectrum by multiple data users at the same time. Accordingly, Customer may experience the following on mobile networks, particularly during times of peak usage and network congestion:
  • Data download speeds may become too slow to support video streaming and other high-bandwidth applications, particularly during times when there are a large number of other data users on the network, when the network may run slower.
  • PINE may shape network data traffic in ways that improve Customer’s and all users’ experience in ways that are barely perceptible to the user, but reduce data throughput and thereby reduce network congestion, for example, by compressing video streaming to a phone that degrades video quality imperceptibly on the small screen of a phone handset.
  • Data shaping and network congestion management are designed and implemented to deliver improved service to Customer by decreasing the data consumed (thereby lowering cost or draining of the Customer’s data allowance) while also reducing delays or allowing streaming to work on lower speed networks or cell sites.
  • Any network congestion management or data shaping will be done on a non-discriminatory basis, not based on the Customer, Customer’s plan, nor the identity of the application or service provider.
    1. The cost of mobile data transmission to PINE when Customer is off the PINE network (roaming) can be quite high. To keep our mobile data prices to Customers reasonable, PINE must limit bandwidth speeds provided to customers while roaming.  These limits are part of your Mobile Service plan and agreement with PINE and you understand that absent such limits the price you would pay for your mobile data plan would have to be higher or roaming data usage would otherwise have to be limited.  Specifically, when you are roaming, your maximum data upload and download data speed may be limited, depending on the network characteristics of and our agreement with the operator of the network on which you are roaming.  The speed of your data service when you return to the PINE mobile network will return to normal.
    2. THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. PINE DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE OR THAT ANY INFORMATION, SOFTWARE OR OTHER MATERIAL ACCESSIBLE ON THE SERVICE IS FREE OF VIRUSES, WORMS, TROJAN HORSES, OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS.
  1. PINE’S PRIVACY POLICY. PINE protects your personal, service, and financial information in accordance with applicable federal and state laws and regulations, which are subject to change from time to time.  Note that we may need to use or share your information to provide credit, equipment, and services, for example, to: (1) initiate, render, bill, and collect for telephone broadband services and equipment.  Also, as allowed or required by applicable law, we may need to use or share your information to:  (1) protect the rights or property of PINE, or to protect other users and other providers from fraudulent, abusive, or unlawful use of, or subscription to, services or equipment; (2) provide any inbound telemarketing, referral, or administrative services to the customer for the duration of a call, if such call was initiated by the customer and the customer approves of the use of such information to provide service; or (3) provide call location information concerning the user of a commercial mobile radio service or an IP-enabled voice service in certain specified emergency situations; (4) as required by laws or regulations, including in response to court orders or subpoenas from law enforcement.
  1. EQUIPMENT OR SOFTWARE.
    1. In order to use the Service, you may have purchased certain equipment from PINE. This equipment has been configured and ready to be used on PINE’s network.  Any tampering, reprogramming and resetting of this equipment’s configuration voids any and all WARRANTIES.  You will be charged a $50 service charge for reconfiguration or reprogramming of equipment that has been tampered with, reprogrammed or reset.
    2. PINE shall not be responsible for the installation, operation or maintenance of equipment or software unless contracted by the Customer through PINE, nor shall PINE be responsible for the transmission or reception of information by equipment or software not installed by PINE. Customer shall be responsible for the use and compatibility of all equipment or software not installed by PINE.
    3. You also understand that PINE is only responsible for the internet connection to the equipment purchased from PINE and any computer, third party router, and network configuration that needs to be performed must be done by a secondary computer company, NOT PINE or any of its employees.
  1. RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF PINE; LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY AND DAMAGES.
    1. PINE shall operate and maintain the Service using reasonable efforts. Customer acknowledges that Service is subject to transmission limitations caused by atmospheric, topographical and any other like conditions. Additionally, Service may be temporarily refused, limited, interrupted or curtailed due to governmental regulations or orders, system capacity limitations, limitations imposed by an underlying communications carrier, or because equipment modifications, upgrades, repairs, or reallocations or other similar activities necessary or proper for the operation or improvement of PINE’s Service. THERE IS NO GUARANTEED BANDWIDTH SPEED.
    2. CUSTOMER UNDERSTANDS THAT NEITHER PINE NOR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES OPERATES OR CONTROLS THE INTERNET IN ANY WAY, AND THAT ALL MERCHANDISE, INFORMATION AND SERVICES OFFERED OR MADE AVAILABLE OR ACCESSIBLE ON THE INTERNET ARE OFFERED OR MADE AVAILABLE OR ACCESSIBLE BY THIRD PARTIES WHO ARE NOT AFFILIATED WITH PINE OR ITS AFFILIATES
    3. Customer understands and expressly acknowledges that the Internet contains unedited materials, some of which are sexually explicit or may be offensive to some people. Customers access such material at Customer’s own risk.
    4. Customer acknowledges that the Service and Internet systems use public access facilities to transmit voice and data communications and that this Service may not be completely private.
    5. CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL PINE, ITS AFFILIATES OR ITS CONTRACTORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES THAT RESULT IN ANY WAY FROM CUSTOMER’S USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICE OR TO ACCESS THE INTERNET OR ANY PART THEREOF, OR CUSTOMER’S RELIANCE ON OR USE OF INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM THE SERVICE, OR THAT RESULT FROM MISTAKES, OMISSIONS, INTERRUPTIONS, DELETION OF FILES, ERRORS, DEFECTS, DELAYS IN OPERATION, OR TRANSMISSION OR ANY FAILURE OF PERFORMANCE. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL PINE HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO CUSTOMER OR TO ANY USER OF CUSTOMER’S SERVICE THAT EXCEEDS THE AMOUNT CUSTOMER HAS PAID TO PINE FOR THE SERVICE OVER THE LAST TWELVE MONTH PERIOD.
    6. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing representations and terms, PINE reserves the right to terminate or restrict the Service immediately and without notice to Customer in the event PINE believes a Customer has engaged in conduct in violation of the Agreement, in order to maintain system integrity or to comply with any law, regulation, court order or other governmental request.
  1. Customer agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless PINE and its affiliates, as well as their officers, agents and employees, from any and all liabilities, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, related to or arising from:
    1. Any violation of any Customer Agreement, this Service Agreement or any other policy by Customer;
    2. The use of the Service or Internet related Services or the placement or transmission of any messages, information, software or other material on the Service by Customer;
    3. Negligent or willful acts or omissions of Customer or Customer’s officers, employees, agents or contractors in connection with the construction, installation, maintenance, presence, use or removal of systems, channels, or terminal equipment or software not provided by PINE, which are connected or are to be connected to the Service;
    4. Claims for infringement of copyrights or patents arising from the use of the equipment and software, apparatus and systems not provided by PINE in connection with the Service.
  1. NETWORK MANAGEMENT, OPEN INTERNET.
    1. PINE manages its network with one goal: to deliver a high quality broadband Internet experience to all of its customers. High-speed bandwidth and network resources are not unlimited. Managing the network is essential as PINE works to promote the use and enjoyment of the Internet by all of its customers. The company uses reasonable network management practices that are consistent with industry standards and FCC regulations.
    2. SPAM filtering for e-mail services is provided via the web portal interface. If POP3 or IMAP services are used via Customer supplied software, SPAM filtering must be provided by the Customer machine, if required. SPAM may contain harmful information, links, and attachments. Spam filtering is not 100% effective or accurate, and the Customer assumes ALL risks associated with the use of ANY e-mail or ANY other service, application, or web use.
    3. Network congestion rarely occurs in the PINE network due to applied engineering practices. Pre-defined concentration ratios are adhered to throughout the network. Inter-network and Intra-network ratios are evolving as the nature of traffic and customer habits change. Planning and network upgrades insure network concentration points are updated ahead of the growth curve in most cases. The primary cause of network congestion results from a hardware or software malfunction or failure. The Customer may experience network congestion during peak usage times.
    4. Since network security is paramount, PINE has ensured that its network is as secure as possible. However, the very nature of the “OPEN” Internet provides ample opportunity for security threats and breaches. For this reason, PINE recommends that every customer utilize a firewall for each computer.  In addition, the Customer should keep current with all operating system upgrades and patches to ensure protection against threats.  A reputable anti-virus program is also recommended for each Customer computer.  Again, PINE is not responsible for ANY damage to hardware or software regardless of the Customer’s adherence to the recommended practices.
    5. Except for reasonable network management, in no way will PINE participate in the practice of blocking, throttling, or discriminating against ports or any lawful and non-harmful applications, services, websites, or any other lawful content. PINE may block Subscriber traffic if PINE reasonably believes that it involves unlawful activity, or violation of these T&Cs or PINE policies, such as spamming, traffic infected with a virus or bot net, traffic affecting network performance for other customers, anything that degrades or may be harmful to the network or other customers.  PINE will at all times endeavor to comply with the FCC’s “Open Internet” rules and orders as announced from time to time.
  1. PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS AND LIMITATIONS. The following technologies are utilized to deliver high speed Internet to PINE  Each Customer may qualify for one or more of the appropriate technologies depending on the Service location as determined by PINE.  The network is in a revolving state of upgrade and the technologies available in various locations well change from time to time, as will the speeds available at a particular location or over a particular technology.  Details regarding speeds, bandwidth limitations and pricing are available on the rate card available at PINE’s office.
    1. Fixed Wireless: Fixed wireless provides high speed Internet allowing for faster download speeds and slower upload speeds.  The nature of Internet traffic typically melds well with this technology, as the consumer typically makes a request (small amount of data) and receives a larger amount of information in return.  Many factors affect the overall download and upload speed of a wireless connection and the speeds listed are maximum speeds allowed.  Actual use speeds will be less than maximum speeds and use speeds may vary greatly depending on a variety of factors.  Fixed wireless is intended to use at Customer’s premises and not intended to be a mobile device.  Customer agrees to use fixed wireless Internet at its set location and not as a traveling device.
    2. Mobile Wireless: Mobile wireless provides high speed internet allowing for faster download speeds and slower upload speeds.  The nature of Internet traffic typically melds well with this technology, as the consumer typically makes a request (small amount of data) and receives a larger amount of information in return. Many factors affect the overall download and upload speed of a wireless connection and the speeds listed are maximum speeds allowed.  Actual use speeds will be less than maximum speeds and use speeds may vary greatly depending on a variety of factors.
    3. Asymmetrical Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL): ADSL provides high speed internet allowing for faster download speeds and slower upload speeds. The nature of Internet traffic typically melds well with this technology, as the consumer typically makes a request (small amount of data) and receives a larger amount of information in return.  The maximum amount of data provided upstream is 1.5 Mbps.  ADSL is a rate adaptive technology, meaning that if your line is not capable of 1.5 Mbps upstream (or Down), it will get as close as it can to the desired bandwidth.
    4. Cable Modem Service (CMS): CMS service varies depending on many factors. PINE utilizes the DOCSIS standard in its deployment of CMS.
    5. Fiber to the home: Where available, this is generally our fastest service, though speeds may vary.  Current plans offer up to 25 MBs download and 3 MBs upload.
    6. Power Outages: In the event there is a power outage where you receive your Service, your Internet access may be interrupted until power is restored.  If you receive your voice telephone service over the Internet (called “VoIP”) your telephone will not work and you will not be able to make emergency or “911” calls during the outage.  However, if you have a battery backup for your VoIP equipment, you phone will continue to work, provided our network is still able to operate.  We offer Customers battery backup equipment for VoIP as an option that you may purchase.  The optional equipment will provide 8 hours or 24 hours of standby power so that the telephone equipment in your home may still make and receive VoIP calls.  To learn more about VoIP battery backup service, including prices for the batteries and installation, you may visit our website ([URL for BATTERY BACKUP PRICING]) or contact our business office.
