This Open Internet Policy sets forth certain information regarding the policies and practices of 360 Broadband and how we manage our network for broadband internet access service (the “360 Broadband Network” or “Network”).  This Open Internet Policy is a supplement to and is incorporated by reference in our Residential and Business Terms of Service Agreement (“Service Agreement”) available HERE.

In the event of any inconsistency between this Open Internet Policy and the Service Agreement, this Open Internet Policy shall control.  

360 Broadband offers fixed wireless and fiber broadband internet access service (“Service”) that is shared with other users on our various computers, servers, transmission equipment and other infrastructure at various locations.   [A1] For our fixed wireless subscribers, generally, given the nature of fixed wireless services, certain circumstances may affect the speed and quality of the Service, including but not limited to foliage, line-of-sight obstructions, the distance between a Customer’s premises and the transmission point, as well as the Customer’s connection of multiple devices to the 360 Broadband Network.  Although we have engineered the 360 Broadband Network to provide consistent high-speed data services, some network management for these scenarios is required, because very heavy data usage by even a few Customers at times and places of competing network demands can affect the performance for all Customers.

I. NETWORK MANAGEMENT PRACTICES

A. Blocking:  Other than reasonable network management practices disclosed below, we do not block or otherwise prevent a Customer from lawful content.

B. Throttling:  Other than reasonable network management practices disclosed below, we do not throttle or otherwise degrade or impair access to lawful Internet traffic on the basis of content, application, service, user, or use of a non-harmful device.

C. Affiliated Prioritization: We do not directly or indirectly favor some traffic over other traffic, including through use of techniques such as traffic shaping, prioritization, or resource reservation, to benefit any of our affiliates, defined as an entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with 360 Broadband.

D. Paid Prioritization: We do not directly or indirectly favor some traffic over other traffic, including through use of techniques such as traffic shaping, prioritization, or resource reservation, in exchange for consideration, monetary or otherwise.

E. Congestion Management: Our Service is provided on a “best efforts” basis and our congestion management practices are in place to ensure that all Customers experience the same high quality service under varying usage periods.  Our typical frequency of congestion is estimated at ______[A2] .  Customers selected Service Plan is set forth in the COS.  360 Broadband does not impose usage limits for residential or business Service.  [A3] In a manner consistent with our Service Agreement and Privacy Policy, we may monitor network traffic to ensure capacity is sufficient to maintain an efficient network load, to perform diagnostics and to otherwise manage and enhance the 360 Broadband Network.  To help manage traffic on the 360 Broadband Network, during times of high demand, we may allocate available bandwidth among Customers on an equal basis, by account level.  In addition, we may prioritize certain applications, such as public safety and voice, over other traffic types.

i. 360 Broadband may also use specific traffic shaping software in order to manage our Network during periods of congestion.  [A4] 

ii. We may also conduct deep packet inspection (“DPI”)[A5] , which is a type of filtering that will examine the data and/or header part of Internet traffic for viruses, spam, intrusions, or protocol non-compliance that may harm the 360 Broadband Network; to determine the routing of Internet traffic[A6] ; for internal statistical and performance purposes; for lawful intercept capabilities, and/or enforcement of our Service Agreement.  We do not use DPI to conduct data mining for targeted marketing or advertising, or for anti-competitive purposes.

iii. If we determine, in our sole and reasonable discretion, that the manner in which a Customer is using the Service negatively impacts other Customers or the 360 Broadband Network, we reserve the right to apply additional congestion management techniques.

F. Application-Specific Behavior: Subject to the qualification that 360 Broadband may reasonably limit or rate-control specific or classes of applications, or other specific protocols or protocol ports as set forth below, 360 Broadband generally treats all lawful applications identically.  However, we reserve the right to block or limit access to any applications, ports or protocols that we determine, in our sole and reasonable discretion, may expose the 360 Broadband Network to potential legal liability, harm the 360 Broadband Network or otherwise interfere with or impair the experience of other Customers on the 360 Broadband Network.  The 360 Broadband Network also may not support certain high-bandwidth video and voice applications, or peer-to-peer applications that carry unlawful or harmful content/software.

G. Device Attachment Rules:  Generally, you do not need approval to connect a third-party device to the 360 Broadband’s Network. 360 Broadband does not limit the types of devices that can be connected to the 360 Broadband Network, provided they are used for lawful purposes and do not harm the 360 Broadband Network, violate our Service Agreement, or harm other users of the Network.  However, if we determine, in our sole and reasonable discretion, that the connection of a particular type of device to the 360 Broadband Network negatively impacts other users or the 360 Broadband Network, or may expose us to potential legal liability, we reserve the right to limit or restrict Customers’ ability to connect such type of device to the 360 Broadband Network.  If you need technical support services to assist you in the installation and configuration of third party devices, please contact us or visit https://360broadband.com/contact/.  Depending on your level of Service and your COS, there may be an additional monthly fee for IT support services.

H. Security: We have taken reasonable physical, technical and administrative safeguards to protect the integrity and operations of the 360 Broadband Network.  We monitor the 360 Broadband Network for security threats and may prohibit certain activity on the 360 Broadband Network that we may deem, in our sole and reasonable discretion, poses a potential risk to the 360 Broadband Network or to other Customers.  Triggering conditions include but are not limited to denial of service activity, IP address or port scanning, excessive account login failures; or certain Internet addresses that are disruptive, malicious and typically persistent.  If we notice excessive Customer connections, including but not limited to Wi-Fi connections, that are harmful or are commonly used to disrupt the normal use of the 360 Broadband Network or use by other Customers, we will attempt to notify the Customer to work collaboratively to remedy the issue to the extent possible; however, we reserve the right as a reasonable security practice, without advance notice, to block any Customer traffic, ports, protocols, devices, or applications (such as peer-to-peer applications that may carry malicious software or are known to be problematic) that we determine, in our sole and reasonable discretion, may cause harm to the 360 Broadband Network or to other Customers, or may expose us to potential legal liability.

E. Network Speeds: 360 Broadband offers a standard range of download speeds to residential Customers varying from ____ Mbps to ____ Mbps.  The standard range of download speeds for business Subscribers is from ____ Mbps to ____ Mbps[A10] .  The 360 Broadband Network is designed to support these speeds to help ensure that every Customer receives the speeds to which they have subscribed.  360 Broadband however cannot guarantee speeds at all times, as there are many factors and conditions beyond 360 Broadband’s control that can affect Internet performance. 

Some of these external factors and conditions are:

i. Performance of Subscriber computer and/or router
ii. Type of connection to Subscriber’s own equipment (i.e., Wi-Fi)
iii. Congestion of websites and services on Internet
iv. Website or service limiting speeds on the Internet
v. Internet and equipment performance outside of the 360 Broadband Network

The 360 Broadband Services are advertised as “up to” certain speeds reflecting performance under ideal conditions.  Without purchasing an expensive “dedicated” Internet connection, no Internet Service Provider can guarantee package speeds at all times.
