NETWITZ reserves the right to terminate a session or an account for excessive use or idle time. NETWITZ also reserves the right to define excessive use and idle time.

Double Logins

Unless specified in joint agreement by NETWITZ and the dialup client Double Logins or two users actively using the service at the same time with the same login ID or name is prohibited. Use of an account in this manner will cause one or both of the account sessions to be terminated. Excessive abuse will cause termination of the account.
