Customer shall obtain no permanent or other legal rights regarding such software.  Within 90 days from the date of commencement of service to Customer hereunder, Customer shall purchase or supply any software necessary to access the services provided hereunder.  ISP does not provide Aback-up@ access software.

11.       Limitation of Remedies and Liability.  Use of ISP=s system is entirely at Customer=s sole risk. As the sole and exclusive remedy available to Customer for ISP's breach of any warranty or other term of this agreement, ISP will refund to Customer that portion of Customer's monthly service fee for which Customer did not receive ISP's services as warranted.  In no event will ISP be liable for special, incidental or consequential damages arising from the use, or inability to use, ISP's services, even if ISP has been advised of the possibility of such damages.  ISP shall not be liable for the loss of information arising from the use of ISP's services.  ISP's maximum liability for any claim arising from Customer's use of ISP's services under this Agreement, including, without limitation, claims based upon ISP's negligence, shall be limited to the refund of service fees paid to ISP by Customer for the 12-month period preceding Customer's claim.  The warranties and remedies set forth above are exclusive and in lieu of all others, oral or written, expressed or implied.  No ISP distributor, employee, or agent is authorized to modify or extend the above warranties or remedies in any manner.  Some states do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties or the limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above exclusions may not apply to some Customers.  This warranty gives Customer specific legal rights.  Customer may also have other rights which vary from state to state.

 

12.       Right to Review Contents.  ISP shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to review the contents of any material passing through its servers to or from Customer in the event ISP receives credible information suggesting that Customer is violating the law, ISP's published rules of conduct, or the terms of this Agreement.  Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to create any obligation on the part of ISP to review the content of materials passing through its servers.

15.       Right to Modify, Suspend, Terminate, and Delete.  ISP reserves the absolute right to modify, suspend, or terminate the services provided under this Agreement without prior notice to Customer.  Modifications of this Agreement may be made by ISP through posting on ISP=s home page, or by e-mail to Customer, or by delivery of a written amendment to Customer.  ISP may, at any time, require Customer to change Customer=s log-in code or password. ISP reserves the right to delete or restrict access to all program and data files associated with Customer=s account and/or other information Customer has on ISP=s system.  Any incoming e-mail sent to terminated or suspended accounts will not be forwarded to another account.  Instead, it will be bounced back to sender.  If your account included space on ISP=s servers, anything stored on this space will be deleted on termination.  All provisions of this Agreement shall survive termination of this Agreement by either ISP or Customer.

20.       Severability. If any provisions of this Agreement are held to be invalid or otherwise unenforceable, the enforceability of any remaining provisions of this Agreement will not be impaired thereby.
