HONEST’S ACCEPTABLE USE POLICY AND HOW IT APPLIES TO USERS

Honest’s goal is to operate a secure and reliable Internet access and data transport network that provides users with best-in-class, high-speed Internet services (the “Services”). That is why Honest has created this Acceptable Use Policy (“AUP”) – to ensure the proper use and integrity of its state-of-the-art network so that all of Honest’s customers and Services users (collectively, “Users”) consistently enjoy the speeds, features and benefits it offers.

To that end, Honest takes this AUP very seriously and reserves the right to restrict, suspend or terminate a User’s access to the Services and/or account with Honest, without notice, if User uses the Services in violation of this AUP or the other customer agreements and terms and conditions to which User is bound (“Customer Agreements”), as well as to take any appropriate legal or other action to enforce them (such as takedown or blocking of content without notice). Honest reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to refuse to transmit or post, and to remove or block, any information or materials, in whole or in part, that Honest deems to be in violation this AUP or that otherwise may be harmful to Honest’s network or other Users using the Services, regardless of whether such materials or their dissemination is unlawful.

Neither Honest nor any of its affiliates, suppliers or agents have any obligation to monitor transmissions or postings (including e-mail, file transfer, blog, newsgroup, and instant message transmissions, or materials available on the personal Web pages and online storage features) made available through the Services; provided that Honest may monitor these transmissions and postings from time to time for violations of this AUP and disclose, block, or remove them in accordance with this AUP, the Customer Agreements and/or applicable law.

In no event shall Honest have any liability whatsoever to Users for damages incurred by Users or any third party in connection with Honest’s enforcement of this AUP.

By using the Services, Users are required to observe and comply with this AUP and the Customer Agreements. If a User does not wish to be bound by the AUP and/or Customer Agreements, then User may not use the Services and/or immediately must cease using the Services and notify Honest of such discontinuance, as commencement or continued use of the Services shall be deemed to constitute User’s agreement to be bound by the AUP and Customer Agreements. While User’s computers and other devices that are connected to the Internet may be accessed or used by other people, software or devices without User’s knowledge or participation, User remains responsible for all such unauthorized access and uses. User is solely responsible to secure User’s connected devices (including the data on those devices) and systems to prevent such unauthorized access and uses.

User has sole responsibility to protect children, minors and other socially dependent persons from access to inappropriate Internet content, applications and websites while using the Services. If children have access to the Services, Honest encourages you to use online parental controls and to carefully supervise online activity.

Honest may amend this AUP and/or Customer Agreements at any time and from time to time without separate notice to Users. It is User’s responsibility to periodically check this AUP and Customer Agreements to ensure that User is fully informed of the current AUP and Customer Agreements and is in continued compliance with such policies.
