By using the Guest Wireless Network, you agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless CCBC for any losses or damages that may result from your use of the Guest Wireless Network. Individuals connected must comply with this directive, the stated purposes and Acceptable Use policies of any other network(s) or host(s) used, and all applicable laws, rules, and regulations.
CCBC takes no responsibility and assumes no liability for any content uploaded, shared, transmitted, or downloaded by you or any third party, or for anything you may encounter or any data that may be lost or compromised while connected to the Guest Wireless Network.
CCBC reserves the right to disconnect any user at any time and for any reason. The Guest Wireless Network is provided as a courtesy to allow our guests access to the internet. Users will not be given access to the CCBC intranet or permission to install any software on our computers.
