We have adopted a philosophy that assumes the honesty and good intent of our subscribers, therefore our services are provided in as unrestricted a manner as possible to allow our users to have the richest Internet experience possible.

This Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) must be read in conjunction with our Terms and Conditions and Technical Support AUP, and may be subject to change from time to time.

It is the subscribers' responsibility to ensure that they comply with the latest edition of the AUP at any given time.    The latest version of this document can be found at http://www.solis.co.uk/aup/

This Acceptable Use Policy may be revised, without notice, at any time, at the sole discretion of Solis.   Completion of the relevant application form, or connection to the service for the first time, is deemed to be an agreement to our Terms and Conditions and Acceptable Use Policies.

In the event of a breach of this policy, Solis reserve the right to terminate your service with immediate effect, without recompense and delete any files held on our servers.

As Network Administrators, Solis reserve the right to monitor any or all network traffic at any time and for whatever reason at our sole discretion without notice or notification as we may deem appropriate.
