Skymesh reserves the right to deny Service to you, or to immediately terminate your Service for any material or perceived breach if your use of the Service (or your use of an alias or the aliases of additional users on your account), whether explicitly or implicitly, and at the sole discretion of Skymesh, is obscene, indecent, pornographic, sadistic, cruel or racist in nature or of a sexually explicit or graphic nature; or espouses, promotes or incites bigotry, hatred or racism; or might be legally actionable for any reason; or is objectionable for any reason; or in any manner violates the terms of this AUP as defined.
1. Intellectual Property
Skymesh respects the intellectual property rights of third parties, including those granted under U.S. copyright laws, and the interests of its subscribers and content providers on the Internet.

This includes, but is not limited to, copyrighted material, material legally judged to be threatening by local community standards, or material protected by trade secret. Therefore, you may not store material of any type or in any format on, or disseminate such material over Skymesh’s Network in any manner that constitutes an infringement of third party intellectual property rights, including rights granted under U.S. copyright laws. In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and other applicable law, it is the policy of Skymesh to terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the Service provided to any Customer or account holder who is deemed to infringe upon third party intellectual property rights. Appropriate circumstances may exist where a Customer or account holder has been found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have infringed upon the copyrights of a third party on two or more occasions (e.g., repeat infringer); or a Customer or account holder has entered into an agreement acknowledging wrongdoing to settle a claim of copyright infringement and subsequently uses Skymesh’s Service to violate the term of that agreement by engaging in copyright infringement or to otherwise engage in conduct that is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to constitute copyright infringement; or where a valid, effective and uncontested notice has been provided to Skymesh alleging facts which are a violation by the Customer or account holder of Skymesh’s policy prohibiting infringing activity involving Skymesh’s Network; or in other cases of repeated flagrant abuse of access to the Internet (e.g., willful commercial piracy or malicious attempts to destroy the value of copyrighted works). Skymesh expressly reserves the right to terminate or suspend the Service of any Customer or account holder if Skymesh, in its sole judgment, believes that circumstances relating to the infringement of third party intellectual property rights warrant such action.
