OSC Networking Guidelines for Internet Use
As a network access provider, and not a content provider, the OSCnetwork is not in a position to, and does not, monitor the content of its customers' or its customers' customers' communications. As stated in OSC network's service contracts, however, OSC does reserve the right to filter or block traffic or network access in cases where that traffic or access materially affects the operation of the network, is intended to obtain unauthorized access, is causing a denial of service situation, or does not comply with any other provisions of the OSC network service contract (Agreement for Internet Service). OSC networking also cooperates fully with all duly constituted law enforcement agencies in cases of violation of applicable law.
Below are applicable excerpts from the OSC Networking/Client Agreement for Internet Service:
