The expressions used to simplify agreements:
This Acceptable Use Policy (“Policy”) is an agreement between Atmostfear Entertainment S.A.S. (“us”, “we”, “our” or “ours”) and you (“User”, “you”, “your” or “Data Subject”).
These terms set forth the general guidelines of your use of our Sites (collectively “Network”) and any of its Products, Subscriptions or Services (collectively “Services”), including all information, and tools available to you, the User, conditioned upon your acceptance of all terms, conditions, policies and notices stated here.
General Observations:
Our intentions for publishing an Acceptable Use Policy are not to impose restrictions that are contrary to our established culture of openness, trust and integrity.
We are committed to protecting the company’s employees, partners and the company from illegal or damaging actions by individuals, either knowingly or unknowingly.
Internet/Intranet/Extranet-related systems, including but not limited to computer equipment, software, operating systems, storage media, network accounts providing electronic mail, browsing, and SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol), are of our property.
These systems are to be used for business purposes in serving the interests of the company, and of our clients and customers in the course of normal operations.
Please, review Human Resources policies for further details.
Adequate security is part of our staff effort involving the participation and support of each of our employees and affiliates who deals with information and/or information systems.
It is the responsibility of every computer user to know these guidelines and to conduct their activities accordingly.
Purpose and Intent:
The purpose of this Policy is to outline the acceptable use of computer equipment at our company.
These rules are in place to protect the employee and our company.
Inappropriate use exposes our company to risks, including virus attacks, compromise of Network systems and services, and legal issues.
General Overview:
This Policy applies to the use of information, electronic and computing devices, and of our Network resources to conduct business or interact with internal networks and business systems, whether owned or leased to us, the employee, or a third party.
All employees, contractors, consultants, temporary, and other workers at our company and its subsidiaries are responsible for exercising good judgment regarding appropriate use of information, electronic devices, and Network resources in accordance with our policies and standards and local laws and regulation.
This Policy applies to employees, contractors, consultants, temporaries, and other workers at our company, including all personnel affiliated with third parties.
This policy applies to all equipment that is owned or leased by our company.
General Proprietary:
Our proprietary information stored on electronic and computing devices, whether owned or leased by us, the employee or a third party, remains the sole property of our company.
You must ensure through legal or technical means that proprietary information is protected in accordance with the Data Protection Standard.
You have a responsibility to promptly report the theft, loss or unauthorized disclosure of our company proprietary information.
You may access, use or share our proprietary information only to the extent it is authorised and necessary to fulfil your assigned job duties.
Employees are responsible for exercising good judgment regarding the reasonableness of personal use.
Individual departments are responsible for creating guidelines concerning personal use of Internet/Intranet/Extranet systems.
In the absence of such policies, employees should be guided by departmental policies on personal use, and if there is any uncertainty, employees should consult their supervisor or manager.
For security and Network maintenance purposes, authorised individuals within our company may monitor equipment, systems and Network traffic at any time, per our company’s Audit Policy.
We reserve the right to audit networks and systems periodically to ensure compliance with this Policy.
Security Measures:
Security and Proprietary Information
All mobile and computing devices that connect to the internal network must comply with the Minimum Access Policy.
System-level and user-level passwords must comply with the Password Policy. Providing access to another individual, either deliberately or through failure to secure its access, is prohibited.
All computing devices must be secured with a password-protected screensaver with the automatic activation feature set to 10 (ten) minutes or less.
You must lock the screen or log off when the device is unattended.
Postings by employees from our e-mail address to newsgroups should contain a disclaimer stating that the opinions expressed are strictly their own and not necessarily those of our company unless posting is in the course of business duties.
Employees must use extreme caution when opening e-mail attachments received from unknown senders, which may contain malware.
System and Network Activities:
The following activities are, in general, prohibited.
Employees may be exempted from these restrictions during the course of their legitimate job responsibilities (e.g., systems administration staff may have a need to disable the Network access of a host if that host is disrupting production services).
Under no circumstances is an employee of our company authorised to engage in any activity that is illegal under local, state, federal or international law while utilising our company-owned resources.
The lists below are by no means exhaustive, but attempt to provide a framework for activities which fall into the category of unacceptable use.
Activities strictly prohibited, with no exceptions:
Violations of the rights of any person or company protected by copyright, trade secret, patent or other intellectual property, or similar laws or regulations, including, but not limited to, the installation or distribution of “pirated” or other software products that are not appropriately licensed for use by our company or Network.
