Oklatel’s commitment is to provide our customers with consistently superior on-line experiences. To accomplish this, Oklatel provides customers a number of services that make use of the Internet and other on-line services and third party software.

BY USING ANY OF THESE SERVICES, YOU ARE ACCEPTING THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS SPELLED OUT IN THIS DOCUMENT.

This document, the “Oklatel Acceptable Use Policy,” is an agreement that governs the use of our Internet services. It is an agreement between you, as a subscriber to our service, and Oklatel. You are responsible for all users and usage of the account, whether or not the use is authorized. This agreement is a series of guidelines that are designed to help Oklatel meet the needs of our customers and assure the quality of service and safety of all on-line users. It is hoped that the guidelines encourage responsible use of Oklatel services by our community of users that, along with good judgment, will continue Oklatel’s ability to provide superior customer experiences both to our customers and the Internet community as a whole.

Our policies target the following goals:

  1. Increasing the enjoyment and usage of the Internet
  2. Maintaining the image and reputation of Oklatel as a responsible provider
  3. Preserving the privacy and security of individual users

In the event that Oklatel believes or discovers that a service subscriber has violated this policy, Oklatel reserves the right to terminate or suspend service(s) without notice. In the case where an account has been terminated or suspended, the reactivation of the old account or the acquiring of a new account will only be allowed by express approval of Oklatel. The account may also be held responsible for any charges associated with any installation or activation charges, whether it is for a new account or an existing suspended or terminated account.

The provision of this Acceptable Use Policy does not in any way obligate Oklatel to monitor or police accounts for violation. Oklatel is not responsible for content and is acting only as a passive conduit. Oklatel is also not liable to any party, either you or any other party, for any violations of this policy.

Because of the continual changes in the Internet environment, technology, legal requirements, and service offerings, Oklatel reserves the right to modify the Acceptable Use Policies whenever needed without prior notification. Changes to the policies will be posted electronically on-line. It is your responsibility to be aware of and understand the policies and posted modifications. Any use of the service after the posting will constitute the acceptance by the subscriber of the policy modification and or changes.

To facilitate the use of shared network resources, Oklatel has resource limits for the use of the e-mail services. Oklatel shall not be liable to you or parties interacting with you for any damages resulting from the actions Oklatel takes to enforce the following provisions:
