Acceptable Use Policy for ORNL Wireless Network Access

This policy describes the acceptable use of the ORNL Visitor Network. Using this network or connecting to any other ORNL network(s) requires compliance with this policy. Users of the ORNL Visitor Network have no expectation of privacy while using the network. ORNL may access and monitor any and all uses of the ORNL Visitor Network and obtain, intercept, record, copy, audit, inspect, and disclose information or communications that arise from such access and monitoring without notice to the user in the ordinary course of business, at the discretion of ORNL and/or the US government, and to the extent permitted by applicable law. Users who wish for their electronic communications to be private or confidential should not conduct such activities on the ORNL Visitor Network and should assume that ORNL is monitoring all network traffic, accessing the contents of all network traffic, and disclosing any and all information gained from such monitoring to authorized individuals or agencies, all without prior notice to or consent from any user, sender, or addressee. Web content filtering is used on the ORNL Visitor Network to block certain categories of content (e.g., pornography, hacking tools, gambling sites, gaming) that ORNL has deemed malicious, objectionable, or counterproductive to conducting business at ORNL.

The following guidelines will be applied to determine whether a particular use of the ORNL Visitor Network is appropriate:

• Users must observe the privacy rights of others. Users shall not access or attempt to obtain access to another user’s communication or system without appropriate authorization. Users shall not seek information on or represent themselves as another user unless explicitly authorized to do so by that user. Executing any form of network monitoring that will intercept data not intended for the user is unacceptable.

• The ORNL Visitor Network may not be used in a manner that impairs network access by others. Nor may the ORNL Visitor Network be used in a manner that impairs access to other networks connected to the ORNL network. Port or security scanning is not acceptable. Introduction of malicious programs (e.g., viruses, worms, Trojan horses, email bombs) into the network or server is prohibited. Using any program/script/command to intentionally circumvent or disable ORNL security infrastructure is not acceptable. 
  
   
• Unsolicited advertising is not acceptable. Making fraudulent offers of products, items, or services that originate from any ORNL network resource is not acceptable. Sending unsolicited email messages, including the sending of “junk mail” or other advertising material to individuals who did not specifically request such material (email spam), is not acceptable. 
  
   
• Repeated, unsolicited, and/or unwanted communication of an intrusive nature is not acceptable. Continuing to send email messages or other communications to an individual or organization after being asked to stop is not acceptable. Sending any form of harassment via email, telephone, or paging—whether through language, frequency, or size of messages—is not acceptable.
