      • (s) gambling;
      • (t) exporting or distribution of controlled substances or of drug paraphernalia; and
      • (u) other Content, goods, services or activities that violate, or encourage conduct that would violate, any criminal laws, any other applicable laws, or any third-party rights.
    • 2.2 RemovalWithout limiting clause 7 of this agreement, MetaCDN may in its discretion (but is not required to) remove or delete any Uploaded Content:
      • (a) that in the opinion of MetaCDN may breach this agreement;
      • (b) where requested by any law enforcement agency or any other governmental agency; or
      • (c) where any third party claims, or MetaCDN is of the opinion, that the Uploaded Content infringes, or may infringe, a third party’s rights.
  3. SECURITY
    • 3.1 User ID’s and passwords MetaCDN will issue a single User ID and corresponding password (together being a “Login”) to You.
    • 3.2 User authority You are liable for, and MetaCDN may rely upon, all instructions, requests, information and Content submitted to the Website by use of the Login, including where the information or request is submitted:
      • (a) by a person other than an authorised Representative of You;
      • (b) by a person using the Login fraudulently or without authority; or
      • (c) by means of a machine rather than by direct or indirect human intervention or initiation.

      Without limiting the above, MetaCDN is entitled to treat all use of the Services made using the Login as use that You have authorised and You are responsible for the payment of any Fees that arise in relation to such use.

    • 3.3 Login security You must:
      • (a) keep the Login secure at all times, including by not recording it in any form (electronic or otherwise) in clear text, except where recording the Login is strictly necessary, in which case:
        • (i)it must NOT be identified as a User ID or password, but must instead be concealed or coded such that someone finding the record is unable to use the password directly — e.g. by adding dummy characters, or embedding them in long strings of characters and numbers); and
        • (ii)it must be stored securely (not on a desk, monitor or in your wallet/purse)
      • (b) only disclose the Login to employees and contractors on a “need to know” basis;
      • (c) notify MetaCDN immediately upon becoming aware that the Login may be lost or stolen, or becoming aware or suspecting that any person knows the Login, or has used the Login, without Your authority.

      • (a) the inclusion of the Personal Information, and any subsequent likely use as part of the Uploaded Content, is permitted under any applicable law relating to the privacy of individuals; and
      • (b) the person who is the subject of the Personal Information (Individual) is aware of:
        • (i) the identity of MetaCDN and how to contact MetaCDN;
