Texol.net will not be held responsible for long distance charges due to an incorrect dialup access number in the connection profile. Texol.net recognizes as acceptable all forms of data communications across its network, except where Federally subsidized facilities of transport (such as national backbones like NSFNET) may require limitations, or State/Federal/International Law prohibits. In those cases, use of the network should adhere to the general principle of advancing science and education

where specific policy statement exist. In cases where data communications are addressed to recipients outside of the Texol.net supplied Network and are carried over the regional
networks or the Internet, Texol.net users are advised that acceptable use polices of those
other networks apply and may, in fact, limit use. If Texol.net is informed by Federal, State
or International authorities of inappropriate or illegal use of Texol.net's facilities and/or other networks these determinations will be binding on the Customer.
