The Rules of the Road
(aka) the Acceptable Use Policy
Effective Date: June 22, 2023
These are the Rules of the Road for your Phone and Services. They cover some categories and examples that are acceptable and some that are prohibited when you use our website or our network. Other parts of The Deal also talk about some things you aren’t allowed to do, so make sure you look at those too. We want everyone to love their Boost Infinite service, and we need to make sure that it’s not used in a way that harms others. You agree to follow these rules whenever you use our network or the Services. These rules change sometimes and you must always follow the version in effect when you are using the website or the Services.
Lawful Use
Don’t access or use our website or use the Services in ways the law doesn’t allow, including sending or storing anything that is illegal, harmful, or violates any laws. Also, don’t use the website or the Services in ways that cause harm to others, including our website and network. We have the right to decide if something you do, or don’t do, causes any such harm.
Infringement
Don’t infringe anyone’s intellectual property rights. These are things such as copyrights, trademarks, patents, trade secrets, privacy, and publicity. Examples of violations are unauthorized use of pictures, logos, software, articles, musical works, and videos.
Offensive Materials
Don’t send or store anything that is libelous, defamatory, obscene, indecent, sexually explicit, cruel, harassing, threatening, inciting violence, promoting bigotry, racist, harmful, invasive of privacy or publicity rights, abusive, inflammatory, or otherwise objectionable. Do remember that the person you are interacting with is also a real human being. Also, don’t access or use our website or the Services to view, send, store, or use in any way any sort of child pornography.
Excessive Use of Network Resources
You are not allowed to use excessive data or an excessive amount of our network resources (including, without limitation, excessive amounts of data from roaming, and/or hotspot use). It can disrupt or degrade our network. Some examples of the things you are not allowed to do are unattended streaming, downloading, or uploading of videos or other files, or the operation of hosting services. Excessive use is determined by us in our sole discretion.
Phone Usage; Modification
Your use of the Phone you buy or finance from us for the Services must be for normal consumer usage. For example, don’t cable your Phone to any unaffiliated location. Don’t use your Phone as a modem for or tether it to computers or other equipment. Don’t use any devices (such as Phones) that are incompatible with our network. We have the right to block the use of any such devices.
Prohibited Uses
Your account is for personal use only and you can’t use it for commercial purposes like telemarketing, autodialing, or monitoring. You can’t share your service or hotspot with the public, do any “traffic pumping”, toll calls or allow your Phone to connect to a never-ending call or data use session.
Resale
Don’t resell the Services to anyone else.
Fraudulent Conduct
Don’t use your Phone, Services, or our website to commit fraud, such as make-money-fast schemes, chain letters, or pyramid schemes.
Falsification/Impersonation
Don’t impersonate others or claim you represent them or act for them unless you have their consent to do so. This includes businesses as well as individuals. Don’t use fake or forged headers, invalid or fabricated domain names, or other types of deceptive addressing.
Third-Party Network or Website Policies
If you use your Phone, Services, or our website to access networks or websites that are not ours, do follow their rules and policies.
Harmful Content
Don’t send or post things that might harm our network or other networks, such as viruses, Trojan horses, worms, time bombs, zombies, cancelbots, or any other harmful computer programs or routines.
Malicious Communications
Don’t send spam, mass automated communications, or other abusive unsolicited content.
Network Security and Integrity
Don’t violate or compromise the security of our network, such as hacking (e.g. gaining unauthorized access to the network, accounts, or systems of us or anyone else), monitoring data or traffic without permission, interfering with or overloading networks or services (such as denial of service attacks or mail bombing), falsifying origin or routing information, or attempting to avoid or circumvent any restrictions, limitations or security measures we use with our website, network or your Services.
