b) By using the Services, SUBSCRIBER agrees to abide by, and require each user of the Services to abide by, the terms of this AUP and associated Terms of Service. Any user who does not agree to be bound by these terms must immediately cease use of the Services and notify AROSTREAM to terminate the account.
c) Use. SUBSCRIBER agrees that the individual account Services is designed for personal and family use (residential use only) of the Services within a single apartment or unit of the Property.

(iii) IP address translation or similar facilities intended to provide additional access.
31.0 No Illegal or Fraudulent Use. SUBSCRIBER agrees the Service may be used only for lawful purposes. SUBSCRIBER will not use or allow others to use the service in any manner that is in violation of any applicable federal, state, local or international laws or regulations or to promote, engage in, or enable illegal activity or conduct that violates or infringes upon the rights of any person. Transmission or distribution of any material in violation of any applicable law or regulation is prohibited.

Furthermore, use of the Service to impersonate a person or entity is not permitted.
32.0 Security/Abuse of Resources. SUBSCRIBER agrees that User is solely responsible for the security of any device connected to the Service, including any data stored on that device. Users shall take all necessary steps to avoid actions that result in the abuse of a resource on their network. Examples of abuse of resources include without limitation: open news servers, open SMTP servers, unsecure wireless routers, and unsecure proxy servers. In the instance when SUBSCRIBER is using a wireless router, AROSTREAM requires that any wireless network be secure and encrypted. Open, unencrypted wireless networks are strictly prohibited. Should an issue arise, SUBSCRIBER is required to address the problem in a timely fashion. Failure to address an issue after notification will be considered a violation of this AUP.
33.0 Network Management. SUBSCRIBER agrees AROSTREAM uses a variety of reasonable network management tools and practices consistent with industry standards. In the event the periods of congestion necessitate such management, AROSTREAM has available the following tools and practices (without limitation and as may be adjusted over time):
a) Subscriber Traffic Management (STM) technology to temporarily lower the priority of traffic with the greatest impact on peak congestion;
b) spam filtering and detection techniques; and
c) measures to protect the security and integrity of its network, resources and subscribers (e.g., IP reputation services from multiple sources to deny mail relay to suspect IPs of the ISP IP space, real-time IP block lists to determine whether to accept a connection to inbound mail servers, port security techniques such as encryption and authentication, and email server- to-server traffic monitoring). In limited instances if employed, these techniques may affect the throughput rate at which subscribers may send and receive data, the ability of users to establish session connections within the network, or result in the delay of certain traffic during times of peak congestion.
34.0 Viruses. SUBSCRIBER agrees the Users must take appropriate action to prevent their systems from becoming infected with and/or distributing computer viruses such as but not limited to worms, “Trojan horses”, denial of service attacks, and bots. AROSTREAM will take appropriate (as decided by AROSTREAM’s sole discretion) action against Users infected with computer viruses or worms to prevent further spread.
35.0 Enforcement. a) SUBSCRIBER agrees that AROSTREAM reserves the right to investigate violations of this AUP, including the gathering of information from SUBSCRIBER or other Users involved and the complaining party, if any, and the examination of material on AROSTREAM’s servers and network.
b) AROSTREAM prefers to advise Users of AUP violations and any necessary corrective action but, if AROSTREAM, in its sole discretion, determines that a User has violated the AUP, AROSTREAM will take any responsive action that is deemed appropriate without prior notification. Such action includes but is not limited to: temporary suspension of service, reduction of service resources, and termination of service. AROSTREAM is not liable for any such responsive action and these actions are not exclusive. AROSTREAM may take any other legal or technical action it deems appropriate.
36.0 No Waiver. SUBSCRIBER agrees that the failure by AROSTREAM or its affiliates to enforce any provision of this Policy at any given point in time shall not be construed as a waiver of any right to do so at any future time thereafter.
37.0 Revisions to Policy. SUBSCRIBER agrees that AROSTREAM reserves the right to update or modify this Policy at any time and from time to time with or without prior notice. Continued use of the Service will be deemed acknowledgment and acceptance of this Policy.

38.0 Acknowledgment. SUBSCRIBER agrees that SUBSCRIBER’s use of the Service shall be deemed acknowledgment that SUBSCRIBER has read and agreed to the Terms of Service. Any user who does not agree to be bound by these terms should immediately stop their use of AROSTREAM’s Service and notify AROSTREAM Customer Service at 1-414-454-9079 to terminate the account. Terms that are initially capitalized but not defined, will have the defined meaning given to them in the other documents referenced above. The Terms of Service constitute a legal binding document.

SUBSCRIBER agrees that in no event shall AROSTREAM be liable for any failure or interruption of program transmissions or Internet Service resulting in part or entirely from circumstances beyond AROSTREAM’s reasonable control (including without limitation, any interruption or degradation of Network Service arising from SUBSCRIBER’s interference, modification or tampering with the Network Service connection).
40.0 Copying, Reproduction, and Distribution of Programs. SUBSCRIBER shall use the programs, Internet Service, and other services provided by AROSTREAM solely for SUBSCRIBER’s personal, non-commercial use and enjoyment, and will not copy, reproduce, or otherwise redistribute such programs, Service, or other services except in compliance with applicable law.
41.0 Additional AROSTREAM Rights.
