COST RECOVERY FEE
Effective October 2004, TriParish.net will begin charging a “BS” cost recovery fee of $2.97 per month for all broadband services. This fee is not a tax; it is intended to offset the cost of the Federal Universal Services Fund (FUSF) charge and other BellSouth (BS) compliance costs.
The FUSF was established by an Act of Congress in 1996. It helps to maintain affordable local telephone service for everyone and provides discounted phone service to schools, public libraries and rural health care providers. The FUSF also provides assistance to low-income and rural customers so they can maintain essential telephone service at a reasonable rate.
The 1996 Act states that all providers of telecommunications services should contribute to the FUSF. Broadband Internet service requires the purchase of wholesale components from Bellsouth Telecommunications, who has recently informed us that these components are subject to the Federal Universal Services Fund charge.
Please be aware that the new line item for the FUSF recovery fee will appear starting with October bills for broadband services. More information on the FUSF is available in detail from the FCC’s web site http://www.fcc.gov/wcb/universal_service.

Unlimited Access
Our goal is to provide our customers with the best residential Internet service possible. In order to help accomplish this, we have adopted this Fair Use Policy.
Unlimited access is not equivalent to unlimited usage of system resources.
To maintain the superior quality and performance of our networks and ensure the highest level of service performance for all users – which could be disrupted by the usage patterns of a small number of customers – we have established data usage thresholds under our Fair Use Policy. Under this policy, we has reviewed the monthly usage by service plan and established usage profiles under this Fair Use Policy that far exceed the average usage under each service plan. Usage that exceeds the monthly usage profiles will be considered a violation of this Fair Use Policy.
Activities that involve extensive high-volume and continuous data transfer might cause your activity to exceed the expected monthly amount. Examples of these activities may include (but are not limited to) extensive use of streaming video and peer-to-peer file sharing programs, or an unsecured wireless signal.
We proactively identify accounts with usage in excess of the plan profile. If your monthly usage exceeds the profile for your plan, we will provide the opportunity to upgrade your service plan or discuss how to maintain usage within the profile. We reserves the right to terminate service if a mutually agreed resolution cannot be reached.
We manage our networks with one goal: to deliver the best possible broadband Internet experience to all of its customers. High-speed bandwidth and network resources are not unlimited. Managing the network is essential as we work to promote the use and enjoyment of the Internet by all of its customers. The company uses reasonable network management practices that are consistent with industry standards. We try to use tools and technologies that are minimally intrusive and, in its independent judgment guided by industry experience, among the best in class. Of course, the company’s network management practices will change and evolve along with the uses of the Internet and the challenges and threats on the Internet.
The need to engage in network management is not limited to us. In fact, all Internet service providers manage their networks. Many of them use the same or similar tools that we do. If the company didn’t manage its network, its customers would be subject to the negative effects of spam, viruses, security attacks, network congestion, and other risks and degradations of service. By engaging in responsible network management including enforcement of this Policy, we can deliver the best possible broadband Internet experience to all of its customers.
TriParish.net reserves the sole right to charge for excessive usage. (Excessive usage is currently 10Gb per month for residential users and 25Gb per month for commercial users.)
At this time, TriParish.net does enforce a time usage limit on dial-up accounts of four continuous hours. This helps us manage dial-up resources usage and prevents monopolizing the system.
Disclaimer: Pricing and policies are subject to change without notice. TriParish.net will not assume responsibilities for damages resulting from using a system account in an irresponsible manner. We only provide Internet access services, carry a full uncensored news feed, and do not monitor for content. Minors must have signed parental consent. The parents or legal guardians of minors are solely responsible to police the user’s actions. All users are expected to voluntarily follow netiquette.
Resale of services and account sharing prohibited, unless prior consent is obtained from TriParish.net.

Open Internet Principles of Triparish.net and Cajun.net
The Federal Communications Commission issued rules to preserve the Internet as an open platform. These rules went into effect on November 20, 2011 and can be found at this link: http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2011-09-23/html/2011-24259.htm. All Internet service providers are required to post information regarding various issues so that consumers, both residential and business, can make informed choices about choosing an Internet service provider. This document contains information regarding our services and in compliance with the FCC’s rules. The policies contained herein serve as a supplement to the existing terms of service.
The FCC’s rules focus on three primary issues:
•Transparency. Fixed and mobile broadband providers must disclose the network management practices, performance characteristics, and terms and conditions of their broadband services;
•No blocking. Fixed broadband providers may not block lawful content, applications, services, or non-harmful devices; mobile broadband providers may not block lawful Web sites, or block applications that compete with their voice or video telephony services; and
•No unreasonable discrimination. Fixed broadband providers may not unreasonably discriminate in transmitting lawful network traffic.
•Reasonable network management. ISPs may engage in reasonable network management to maintain a high quality of service for broadband Internet access.
Network Practices
ISPs must disclose their network practices, specifically in the four general areas listed below. ISPs may not block lawful content, applications, services, or non-harmful
devices, subject to reasonable network management. An ISP may not block consumers
from accessing lawful Web sites, subject to reasonable network management; nor shall the ISP block applications that compete with the provider’s voice or video telephony services, subject to reasonable network management. ISPs may not unreasonably discriminate in transmitting lawful network traffic over a consumer’s broadband Internet access service, although, reasonable network management shall not constitute
unreasonable discrimination. The FCC’s rules state that a network management practice is reasonable if it is appropriate and tailored to achieving a legitimate network management purpose, taking into account the particular network architecture and technology of the broadband Internet access service.
Congestion Management: We engage in constant monitoring of the network as a “whole”. This includes all services on the network. We aim to preserve the best Internet experience for all customers by preventing any subscriber(s) from monopolizing and/or negatively impacting the network and/or its subscribers. These practices are transparent. Please see http://www.triparish.net/termsandconditions.htm for more information.
Application-Specific Behavior: We do not manage the network based on the application being used by a customer.
Device Attachment Rules: We do not restrict any devices to be used at the customer premise.
Security: We engage in industry standard activities to protect the network including active log monitoring and network infrastructure device monitoring for abnormalities and “known” threats.
Performance Characteristics
ISPs must disclose the following network performance characteristics:
Service Description: We provide broadband Internet access services via Asymmetric xDSL, Copper wireline, Terrestrial Fixed Wireless, Carrier Optical/Fiber to end user. Speed and latency depend on the service plan chosen. Real time applications such as VoIP may be used successfully on the network.
Impact of Specialized Services: We do not currently offer any specialized services.
Commercial Terms
ISPs must disclose the commercial terms of its broadband Internet access service including those listed below.
Pricing: Please contact us for available plans.
Privacy Policies: We follow industry standard policies to protect customers’ privacy. Traffic is only analyzed when service is impacted, abuse is suspected, when requested by a subscriber, or subject to a valid request from law enforcement authorities. Traffic information is not provided to third parties, or used by the ISP for non-network management purposes.
Redress Options: Customer complaints are handled on a case by case basis as needed. Customer satisfaction is always our goal.
FCC Notice
If a customer believes that these open Internet rules are not being met, the customer may file an informal complaint at the Federal Communications Commission. The FCC urges customers to submit any complaints via its website at the following address: http://esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htm. Customers may also file a formal complaint at the FCC using Part 76 of the Commission’s rules.

Many alarm systems may not function properly when sharing a phone line with a DSL connection, or the alarm system will prevent to proper operation of DSL Internet service.
TriParish.net or Computer Sales & Services, Inc. will not be held responsible for any disruption in your security service.
In the event that you decide to unsuccessfully attempt to install DSL on a phone line that is used by a security system, your setup and early termination fees in your contract will not be waived.
