1) Fastnet SA will make every effort to filter its clients'
incoming e-mail to eliminate known viruses as well as messages
that appear to be unsolicited advertisements (spam).
2) The criteria used to identify an e-mail message as spam are subjective by nature and
left to the discretion of Fastnet SA. Essentially, Fastnet SA uses internationally
recognized filtering criteria.
3) Fastnet SA guarantees that at least 90% of the spam and
known viruses are recognized and filtered by MailCleaner.
4) Fastnet SA is in no way responsible for the consequences of an e-mail infected by
a virus or a spam that passes through the mail filter.
No legal claims to the contrary can be pursued against Fastnet
SA following such an occurrence.
5) Fastnet SA cannot be held responsible for the loss of an e-mail that passed into
MailCleaner. No compensation can be demanded in such a case.
6) Periodically or at the request of a subscriber, a list of e-mails
currently held in quarantine is automatically generated and sent via e-mail. The
subscriber then has 15 days to request the release of any or all quarantined e-mails.
After 15 days, all e-mails in quarantine will be destroyed, leaving no possibility
for recuperation.
7) The implementation of a mail filter inevitably adds to the delivery time of the
e-mail that passes through it. Fastnet SA will take all possible measures to minimize
this delay as much as possible, but in no case can Fastnet SA be held responsible for
the consequences of any such delay.
8) No compensation can be demanded from Fastnet SA except in the case where it
breaches point 3 (see above) so far as the client can produce evidence.
9) The licence fee is paid on an annual basis. The customer will be
notified one month before the end of the subscription period that said period is
coming to term. If a renewal payment is not received before the end of said
period, mail filtering will stop immediately. It is the responsibility of the customer
to make the necessary modifications to his domain's DNS records to avoid the loss of
any e-mail messages.
10) If the customer chooses to terminate his contract before the contract comes to
term, no reimbursement for the remainder of the period will be provided by Fastnet SA.
11) Fastnet guarantees that all e-mail messages will be handled in a strictly
confidential manner. Neither email addresses nor message contents will be
disclosed to any party, particularly in light of the Swiss Law on the
Protection of Data (LPD), without a formal subpoena by a Swiss judge with
the necessary jurisdiction.
12) The client authorizes Fastnet SA to carry out any requests in the
client's name to demand the removal of the client's email address(es) from
distribution lists used by, or in the possession of, any parties that
transmit advertisements via e-mail, in respect to the Swiss Federal Law on
the Protection of Data 235.1 CO.
This contract shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of Lausanne, Switzerland, without regard to its choice of law provisions. Any dispute hereunder shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction within Switzerland.
