compliance with this Agreement.
Section 5.4. Acceptable, But Not Suitable Uses For Customer or Technical
Support. In some cases, Customer's content may not violate Stream.JoinWeb's
"Acceptable Use" Policy, but yet be considered unsuitable for
viewing or providing support in a professional environment shared by Stream.JoinWeb's
employees. Such content (hereinafter deemed "unsuitable content")
may be offensive, vulgar, excessively provocative, violent, of an Adult
nature, contain nudity, unsuitable language, or other nature that warrants
the content unsuitable for viewing or listening.
While it is not Stream.JoinWeb's policy to exercise censorship and remove
content from our service that does not violate Stream.JoinWeb's "Acceptable
Use" Policy, any content that is considered unsuitable for viewing
will NOT be played, viewed, encoded, captured, digitized, handled or otherwise,
displayed in any way, by any Stream.JoinWeb employee in the offices of Stream.JoinWeb.
All employees of Stream.JoinWeb are permitted to use their own discretion
in determining and rejecting content that is unsuitable for viewing or
listening to for the nature of providing Customer Service or Technical
Support.
If employees encounter a Customer requesting support for such content,
Stream.JoinWeb's employees are required to notify Customer that suitable content
for viewing must be uploaded into the account for any support to be made
available, and only for suitable content, and that no support or customer
service will be provided for unsuitable content. If Stream.JoinWeb receives
an order or a shipment for the purposes of preparing any content for streaming,
including, but not limited to digitizing or encoding, that should be unsuitable,
whether discovery of such content is made prior to performing the service,
or during the course of performing the service, such service shall cease
immediately. Stream.JoinWeb will then return the content, or at the discretion
and sole determination by Stream.JoinWeb's management, refer the Customer
to an independent contractor for completion of services.
Section 5.5. Receipt of Copyright or Trademark Infringement Notification.
If Stream.JoinWeb receives a notification of claimed copyright or trademark
infringement with regard to Customer's content, whereby the notification
includes: a physical or electronic signature of the owner (or person authorized
to act on behalf of the owner) of an exclusive right that is allegedly
infringed; specific identification of the copyrighted, trademark or patented
work claimed to have been infringed, or if multiple works are covered
by a single notification, a list of each work claimed to have been infringed;
information related to the work(s) reasonably sufficient for Stream.JoinWeb
to promptly locate the work (e.g. title of work, URL location) within
Stream.JoinWeb's Web site, Stream.JoinWeb's Customer's Web site, or that of a
third party Web site; information reasonably sufficient to permit Stream.JoinWeb
to directly contact the complaining party, such as a complete name and
address, telephone number and/or email address; a statement that the complaining
party has a good faith belief that use of the work(s) in the manner complained
of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent or the law; a statement
requesting that Stream.JoinWeb take a specific act with respect to the alleged
infringement (e.g., removal, access restricted or disabled; and a statement
that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty
of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf
of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed, then Stream.JoinWeb
will take appropriate actions under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act
and/or other applicable intellectual property laws, which may including
disabling or removing the work(s) from service and/or suspend or terminate
Customer's service and withhold Customer's content until the matter has
been fully resolved by all parties and such resolution has been submitted
in writing to Stream.JoinWeb on terms mutually acceptable to Stream.JoinWeb, or
if court action of legal jurisdiction determines otherwise.
Section 5.6. Live Events. Customer agrees not to use the service
to host "live events" without the express written permission
of Stream.JoinWeb and, if such consent is given, only pursuant to the terms
and conditions designated in the written permission from Stream.JoinWeb or
as per a Stream.JoinWeb Ancillary Services Agreement. In the event that Customer
uses the service to host "live events" without the express written

materials from Stream.JoinWeb's service, or otherwise block access by third-parties
to Customer's materials.
Section 5.7. Disk and Bandwidth Utilization. Stream.JoinWeb's website
specifies limits on bandwidth and disk utilization. By accepting this
Agreement, Customer agrees to be bound by the service description applicable
to its account. Stream.JoinWeb reserves the right to remove material and/or
terminate or suspend the account due to any violation of bandwidth or
utilizations limits ("overage") that Stream.JoinWeb deems inappropriate
or excessive. Repeat violations of the allotted disk and/or bandwidth
utilization may subject account to termination. Customer agrees to pay
for all bandwidth and/or disk usage that exceeds their allotment based
on the current charges depicted on this site (and no less than one cent
per megabyte in data traffic and one dollar per megabyte in disk storage).
While Stream.JoinWeb implements security mechanisms to prevent disk space
over utilization, bandwidth monitoring, and online notification of disk
space and bandwidth usage, Stream.JoinWeb cannot insure that such security,
monitoring and notification mechanisms will work at all times without
system failure. Therefore, Stream.JoinWeb is not responsible to notify Customer
of overages and it is the Customer's responsibility to ascertain these
conditions. Stream.JoinWeb will make reasonable efforts to keep client informed
of overages exceeding Customer's allotment by 200% or more but can not
guarantee such notification. Stream.JoinWeb advises that Customer anticipate
the volume of users likely to view their media file in a given month and
multiply that by the size of the file to approximate bandwidth usage per
month.
