We strongly encourage each Sub-network and Reseller to adopt these policies, or even stronger policies, to insure the integrity and reliability of our services. Sub-networks and Resellers of SILVER-LOGIC services should, AT THE VERY LEAST, provide a copy of the SILVER-LOGIC Subscriber Agreement and Customer Policy to each and every customer of theirs.

Anyone using SILVER-LOGIC services, whether directly through SILVER-LOGIC or a secondary service supplier (Sub-network or Reseller), will be held accountable for their actions, and all Sub-networks and Resellers of SILVER-LOGIC services, customers, subscribers, third-party users, guests, and staff will be held accountable in accordance with the provisions contained within the SILVER-LOGIC Subscriber Agreement and Customer Policy.

Every Subscriber, Customer, Sub-networks or Resellers of SILVER-LOGIC services is responsible for any misuse of a SILVER-LOGIC account, even if the inappropriate activity was committed by a third party, friend, family member, guest or employee. Therefore, everyone must take steps to ensure that others do not gain unauthorized access to SILVER-LOGIC accounts. In addition, SILVER-LOGIC accounts may not be uses to breach security of another account or attempt to gain unauthorized access to another network or server.

  • It is everyone’s responsibility to keep their password secure to protect the integrity and reliability of the SILVER-LOGIC system and network. Do not share your password and account access with unauthorized users as you will be held responsible for such use. Stay within the allowed use and allocation of your account.
