Spamming Mail Policy

Each customer subscribing ABCHK's services is required to follow ABCHK's Spamming Mail Policy ('this Policy'). This Policy is formulated to ensure a reliable and secured environment.

Each ABCHK's customer is responsible for the activities of its customers or end-users and, by accepting service from ABCHK, is agreeing to ensure that its customers or end-users abide by this Policy. Customers who provide services to their own customers or end-users should affirmatively and contractually pass on the restrictions of this Policy to its users, and take steps to ensure compliance by their users with this Policy.

If violations of this Policy occurs, ABCHK reserves the right to take action to control the offending customer from violating this Policy. Continuing to violate this Policy after being warned to stop is considered harassment and will result in service suspension or termination as ABCHK deems appropriate, without further notice.

As part of the Internet community, Internet citizens or users should act and behave in a way that is acceptable to the whole Internet community. Abusive use of network resources is strictly prohibited.

Handling Procedure

In order to assist us in responding to complaints as quickly as possible, anybody should forward the spam mail complaint with complete headers to abuse@ABCHK.com.

Typically when receiving a complaint, ABCHK will forward it with a warning notice to the corresponding customer for a response and complete resolution. If the problem cannot be resolved within a period of 48 hours from the warning notice, ABCHK will apply smtp blocking or full traffic blocking to the IP address involved in the UBE/UCE complaint. The problem is considered resolved only after ABCHK is convinced with a response of complete resolution with support evidence from the customer. Any full traffic blocking of IP address shall prevent the customer from sending or receiving traffic to and from such IP address.

Upon receiving warning notice from ABCHK, the customer should promptly investigate the UBE/UCE complaints.

If ABCHK receives repeat complaints indicating that a problem has still not been resolved, ABCHK will apply smtp blocking or full traffic blocking to the IP address again and, in its sole discretion, keep the blocking for at least 7 days or 30 days after ABCHK is convinced that the problem is resolved.

ABCHK's customer is responsible for itself and its customers/end-users for UBE/UCE that passes through its connection to ABCHK.

ABCHK's escalation depends on the case severity not time basis. When severe spam complaints are received, escalation will be applied and IP may be blocked in less than 48 hours. Bigger IP range will be blocked in case of IP hopping.

If situation does not improve for continued abuse, service suspension or termination will be arranged by ABCHK in its discretion.
