Vast Networks Openness and Interconnection Policy

VAST NETWORKS commits to conform to the policy as set forth in FCC 05-15.  It has no plan or policy to monitor the types of communication or exchanges over the Internet except those that cause other customers to suffer a loss of service level or is illegal under state or federal law.

VAST NETWORKS agrees to post its terms and conditions on its customer website.  VAST NETWORKS reserves the right to specify different terms and conditions based on class of service (such as business or consumer).  All last-mile service is connected to the Internet at adequate speeds to maintain the advertised speed based on normal patterns of service.

VAST NETWORKS will allow and support private network interconnection as is necessary for the use of its customers.  VAST NETWORKS will also allow any device that does not cause harm to the network nor has deleterious effect on its customers.
Unique requests will be responded to in less than 30 days and will be allowed as long as technically feasible according to the existing capacity and capabilities of the network.

VAST NETWORKS intends to impose no other conditions including volume restrictions except as necessary for the provision of service to its customers.  The following paragraph contains conditions that would be imposed on consumers as an example.

VAST NETWORKS imposes certain restrictions on consumers’ permissible use of the site and services.  Consumers are prohibited from violating or attempting to violate any security features of the Site or Services, including, without limitation, (a) accessing content or data not intended for you, or logging onto a server or account that you are not authorized to access; (b) attempting to probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of the Service, the Site, or any associated system or network, or to breach security or authentication measures without proper authorization; (c) interfering or attempting to interfere with service to any user, host, or network, including, without limitation, by means of submitting a virus to the Site or Service, overloading, “flooding,” “spamming,” “mail bombing,” or “crashing;” (d) using the Site or Service to send unsolicited e-mail, including, without limitation, promotions, or advertisements for products or services; (e) forging any TCP/IP packet header or any part of the header information in any e-mail or in any posting using the Service; or (f) attempting to modify, reverse-engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise reduce or attempt to reduce to a human-perceivable form any of the source code used by VAST NETWORKS in providing the Site or Service.
