Policies and Guidelines
2003-01-03 11:48

It is the purpose and intent of Family Entertainment Network to provide a service to our customers that is wholesome and family oriented. We strive to provide the best customer service possible, and hope that we meet your expectations. Please take the time to read our policies and acquaint yourself with our rules and regulations.

We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone who does not adhere to these polices and, at our sole discretion, may terminate anyone's account with no further notice if we determine they are in violation of these policies.

Acceptable Use Policies
Common sense is the best guide as to what is considered acceptable use. The following are unacceptable uses:

Illegal Activities
We will NOT allow any other illegal activities as defined by the State of Kansas, the U.S. Government or any other political entity. If any investigation is conducted because such activity is found, we will cooperate with the necessary officials to the best of our ability. This includes, but is not limited to activities such as unauthorized distribution or copying of copyrighted software, violation of U.S. export restrictions, harassment, fraud, trafficking in obscene material, drug dealing, and multi-level marketing schemes, and any other other illegal activities.

Obscene Language
There will be NO obscene or abusive language allowed on this system. Neither will we allow "flaming" of other users on this system or on others' systems.

Hacking
We will NOT allow any hacking, or attempts at hacking, on this system. Any such attempts will result in legal action to the full extent the law allows. This includes, but is not limited to, full cooperation with law and other authorities.

Multiple Account Useage
There will be NO multiple accounts allowed on this system unless you have written permission from the System Administrator. Neither will a single dial-in account be used on more than one computer without the express written permission of Family Entertainment Network. Our dialup service is not intended to be a dedicated service. Blatant abusers will be disconnected with no prior notification and accounts will not be renewed or refunded.

Net Abuse (Spamming, Mail Bombing, etc.)
Net abuse, including but not limited to activities such as using a non-existent e-mail return address on a commercial solicitation, spamming (sending unsolicited advertising to numerous e-mail addresses or newsgroups and/or generating a significantly higher volume of outgoing email than a normal user), trolling (posting outrageous messages to generate numerous responses), mailbombing (sending multiple messages without significant new content to the same user), subscribing someone else to a mailing list without that person's permission, or cross-posting articles to an excessive number of newsgroups. Family Entertainment Network reserves the right to determine what constitutes net abuse.

Tortuous conduct, including but not limited to posting of defamatory, scandalous, or private information about a person without their consent, intentionally inflicting emotional distress, or violating trademarks, copyrights, or other intellectual property rights.

Misuse of system resources, including but not limited to employing posts or programs which consume excessive CPU time or storage space; permitting use of mail services, mail forwarding capabilities, POP accounts, or autoresponders other than for the customer's own account; or resale of access to CGI scripts installed on our servers.

Billing Policy
Each customer is billed according to their start date with each customer being on their own monthly billing cycle. Services are paid in advance, and bills are generated and sent to the e-mail address you have on file. If your bill is not paid by the due date, your service is suspended until such time that your account is paid unless other arrangements have been made. We reserve the right to refuse to leave your account "live" pending payment based on length of service, prior payment history, etc.

Bills are send out Monday-Friday, with postal bills being sent on Monday for the entire week, and are billed Net 10. If you need to be billed on a different billing cycle, would like to be billed further in advance, or perfer to receive your bill via postal mail, please contact us at billing@fament.com so we can adjust your account accordingly.

There will be a $30 returned check fee for any check written to Family Entertainment Network that is not honored by your bank for any reason. There will be NO EXCEPTIONS to this policy. Please also note that any check that is returned unpaid due to non-sufficient funds we will attempt to collect electronically by a debit to your checking account for the amount of the check plus the returned check fee, and will continue to do so until such check is collected.

If you wish to cancel your account for any reason, please contact us via e-mail at billing@fament.com, by phone at 620-231-7777, by fax at 620-231-4066, or by postal mail. All accounts that are set up on recurring credit card charge or bank draft may only be cancelled by e-mail, fax, or by postal mail; cancellations will not be accepted by phone. This is to protect you so that you have a written record of your cancellation should any dispute arise. Your request to cancel must be received no later than 3 days before your next due date or your credit card or bank account will be charged.

"Holding" Your Account
Accounts can be placed on "hold" for all customers for periods of over a month, provided you contact us ahead of time. This applies to all customers regardless of the reason (i.e., computer is down, students leaving for the summer, customers going out of town for over a month, etc.) Your e-mail will either be held for you on the server, or we will be happy to forward it to you wherever you might be.

Accounts will be placed on hold for a maximum of 6 months unless prior arrangements have been made.

Refund Policy
Requests for refunds are accepted via e-mail at billing@fament.com, by fax at 620-231-4066, or by postal mail. No refunds are available for services owed for less than a month. All other refund requests are reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Generally, internet services are NOT refundable. In the event Family Entertainment Network elects to discontinue a customer's service without cause, that customer shall receive a full refund of any balance. However, if a customer terminates their service without cause, there shall be NO REFUND of any remaining balance.

Family Entertainment Network internet service is provided on an "as is, as available" basis. Family Entertainment Network does not make any warranty as to availability of service.
