As a provider of website hosting and other internet-related services, QUALIFIEDCHAT offers its customers the means to acquire and disseminate a wealth of public, private, commercial, and non-commercial information. QUALIFIEDCHAT respects that the internet provides a forum for free and open discussion and dissemination of information, however, when there are competing interests at issue, QUALIFIEDCHAT reserves the right to take certain preventative or corrective actions. In order to protect these competing interests, QUALIFIEDCHAT has developed an Acceptable Use Policy ("AUP"), which supplements and explains certain terms of each customer's respective service agreement and is intended as a guide to the customer's rights and obligations when utilizing QUALIFIEDCHAT's services. This AUP will be revised from time to time. A customer's use of QUALIFIEDCHAT's services after changes to the AUP are posted on QUALIFIEDCHAT's website, www.qualifiedchat.com, will constitute the customer's acceptance of any new or additional terms of the AUP that result from those changes.
One important aspect of the internet is that no one party owns or controls it. This fact accounts for much of the internet's openness and value, but it also places a high premium on the judgment and responsibility of those who use the internet, both in the information they acquire and in the information they disseminate to others. When customers obtain information through the internet, they must keep in mind that QUALIFIEDCHAT cannot monitor, verify, warrant, or vouch for the accuracy and quality of the information that customers may acquire. For this reason, the customer must exercise his or her best judgment in relying on information obtained from the internet, and also should be aware that some material posted to the internet is sexually explicit or otherwise offensive. Because QUALIFIEDCHAT cannot monitor or censor the internet, and will not attempt to do so, QUALIFIEDCHAT cannot accept any responsibility for injury to its customers that results from inaccurate, unsuitable, offensive, or illegal internet communications.
When customers disseminate information through the internet, they also must keep in mind that QUALIFIEDCHAT does not review, edit, censor, or take responsibility for any information its customers may create. When users place information on the internet, they have the same liability as other authors for copyright infringement, defamation, and other harmful speech. Also, because the information they create is carried over QUALIFIEDCHAT's network and may reach a large number of people, including both customers and noncustomers of QUALIFIEDCHAT, customers' postings to the internet may affect other customers and may harm QUALIFIEDCHAT's goodwill, business reputation, and operations. For these reasons, customers violate QUALIFIEDCHAT policy and the service agreement when they, their customers, affiliates, or subsidiaries engage in the following prohibited activities:
As we have pointed out, the responsibility for avoiding the harmful activities just described rests primarily with the customer. QUALIFIEDCHAT will not, as an ordinary practice, monitor the communications of its customers to ensure that they comply with QUALIFIEDCHAT policy or applicable law. When QUALIFIEDCHAT becomes aware of harmful activities, however, it may take any action to stop the harmful activity, including but not limited to, removing information, shutting down a website, implementing screening software designed to block offending transmissions, denying access to the internet, or take any other action it deems appropriate.
QUALIFIEDCHAT also is concerned with the privacy of on-line communications and websites. In general, the internet is neither more nor less secure than other means of communication, including mail, facsimile, and voice telephone service, all of which can be intercepted and otherwise compromised. As a matter of prudence, however, QUALIFIEDCHAT urges its customers to assume that all of their on-line communications are insecure. QUALIFIEDCHAT cannot take any responsibility for the security of information transmitted over QUALIFIEDCHAT's facilities.
QUALIFIEDCHAT will not intentionally monitor private electronic mail messages sent or received by its customers unless required to do so by law, governmental authority, or when public safety is at stake. QUALIFIEDCHAT may, however, monitor its service electronically to determine that its facilities are operating satisfactorily. Also, QUALIFIEDCHAT may disclose information, including but not limited to, information concerning a customer, a transmission made using our network, or a website, in order to comply with a court order, subpoena, summons, discovery request, warrant, statute, regulation, or governmental request. QUALIFIEDCHAT assumes no obligation to inform the customer that customer information has been provided and in some cases may be prohibited by law from giving such notice. Finally, QUALIFIEDCHAT may disclose customer information or information transmitted over its network where necessary to protect QUALIFIEDCHAT and others from harm, or where such disclosure is necessary to the proper operation of the system.
Because we may gather certain types of information about our customers, we want our customers to understand the terms and conditions surrounding the capture and use of that information. This privacy statement discloses what information we gather, how we use it, and how to correct or change it. QUALIFIEDCHAT's policies and procedures for handling customer information have been created with the understanding that internet technologies are still evolving and that internet business methods are continuing to evolve to meet the needs and opportunities of the changing technologies. As a result, QUALIFIEDCHAT's policies and procedures are subject to change.
In the course of serving its customers, QUALIFIEDCHAT acquires, stores and transmits customer communications and information that customers may regard as private or sensitive. Some of this information - such as the customer's name, address, telephone number, and credit card data - is provided to QUALIFIEDCHAT by its customers in order to establish service. Other information - such as the customer's account status, choice of services, and customer logs - is created and maintained by QUALIFIEDCHAT in the normal course of providing service. QUALIFIEDCHAT also uses cookies, which are small pieces of information that a website can store in a designated file on a user's computer for various reasons. In addition, QUALIFIEDCHAT may store customers' electronic mail and other communications as a necessary incident to the transmission and delivery of those communications.
