Customer also agrees that Customer will not use, or allow others to use, the Service to disrupt other Internet Service Providers ("ISPs") or services, including, but not limited to, e-mail bombing or the use of mass mailing programs. Customer may not use bandwidth in excess of that associated with the package or tier of service to which Customer subscribes. In addition, Customer will not, or allow others to, alter, modify, service, or tamper with the DOCOMO PACIFIC Equipment or Service or permit any other person to do the same who is not authorized by DOCOMO PACIFIC.
- Security Customer is solely responsible for the security of any device connected to the Service, including any data stored on that device. DOCOMO PACIFIC recommends that Customer take appropriate security precautions for any systems connected to the Service. Customer is responsible for securing any wireless ("WiFi") networks connected to the Service.

Customers will not, nor allow others to, post messages that do not comply with or are not permitted by or otherwise violate the newsgroup's terms of use, written in DOCOMO PACIFIC's, FAQ or similar instructions or guidelines. Customer will also not circumvent the approval process for posting to a moderated newsgroup and will not "flood," "news bomb" or otherwise disrupt users of newsgroups by posting a large number of messages to a newsgroup with the intent to hinder normal discussion, cancel messages of others (except as an authorized moderator), send excessive quantities of data to a newsgroup, post binary files to newsgroups that do not expressly permit them or download any newsgroup in bulk unless expressly permitted.
- Use Of Chat Rooms And Similar Interactive Programs Customer will not, or allow others to, participate in chat rooms, bulletin boards, discussion groups or other interactive sections of the Internet ("Chat Rooms") that Customer or a person using Customer's service has been banned from using. Customers will not, nor allow others to, violate the acceptable use policy of the server or Chat Room. In addition, Customer will not, or allow others to: flood or scroll such Chat Rooms (sending messages or material in quick succession with the intent to disrupt use of such Chat Rooms by others); use automated programs such as "bots" or "clones" to participate in Chat Rooms unless Customer is physically present at Customer's computer; manipulate any Chat Room server to harass or disconnect other Internet users or to gain privileges that Customer is not entitled to; send Chat Room messages to recipients who have indicated their desire not to receive such messages; or forge alter, or hide Customer's identity.
- Network Management DOCOMO PACIFIC manages its network to deliver the best possible service to all of our customers. This is necessary because high-speed bandwidth and network resources are not unlimited. Additionally, if we did not manage our network, our customers would be subject to the negative effects of "spam," viruses, security attacks, network congestion, and other risks and degradations of service. To address these risks, DOCOMO PACIFIC uses reasonable network management practices with the goal of relieving network congestion and ensuring that all customers have the opportunity to use the Service with the best available results. DOCOMO PACIFIC uses tools that it considers to be the least disruptive to the customer experience. In the case of significantly high bandwidth usage causing congestion (regardless of the usage type or format), DOCOMO PACIFIC may temporarily reduce the available bandwidth to those customers identified as using such high amounts of bandwidth as necessary to reduce bandwidth congestion. This may cause high bandwidth users to temporarily experience slower Service speeds, but specific network traffic is not targeted for restriction during these times. While DOCOMO PACIFIC does not guarantee that the network will never experience disruptions, we believe our network management techniques are among the best available for assuring a good customer experience. Of course, DOCOMO PACIFIC's network management practices will change and evolve, along with the uses of the Internet and the challenges and threats on the Internet.
- No Excessive Use Of Bandwidth This Service is for residential use and only within limits that DOCOMO PACIFIC considers reasonable for the service level to which Customer subscribes.
