OFFICIAL WEBSITE ABUSE ABATEMENT POLICY

ANNOUNCEMENT -- New IP bans are in place. As a means of insuring the privacy of Jeremy Roenick Dot Com website users, we do not regularly log and file the IPs of our website users. However, on certain occasions, specific types of abuse of the Jeremy Roenick Dot Com website and its staff may require temporary logging and filing of IP address information in order to identify abusers and take steps to end the abuse. These logs are kept for 90 days, and repeat offenders are reported to their ISPs. The following procedures define specifically how this is to be done. ABUSE OF THE WEB MISTRESS OR ANY MEMBER OF THE WEB TEAM WILL NOT BE TOLERATED AND WILL BE REPORTED TO THE PROPER AUTHORITIES.

Definition and explanation of terms:

ISP Internet Service Provider. This is anyone who provides Internet service to consumers, businesses or any user.

IP number refers to the Internet Protocol address, which is a unique number assigned to every computer connected to the Internet.

A computer's IP number may be static and unchanging or may be assigned dynamically, changing every time that computer connects to the Internet. Most dial-up Internet connections and many broadband connections such as cable or DSL are
dynamic. When a computer receives a dynamic IP address it is typically one of a bank or range of addresses used by that computer's ISP. Therefore, even if a user has a different IP every time s/he accesses a website, the users ISP can be identified if they're within a certain range. The ISP can often then identify the user from this address.

IP Logging to Address Direct Threats

Direct threats are defined as threats against specific people or small, easily identifiable groups of people, and repeated emails and posts of a harassing, defaming or slanderous nature.

Please note that using multiple email addresses and a variety of "names" does not prevent our logging of your individual IP address, which will be forwarded to the proper authorities when continued instances of abuse occur.

Jeremy Roenick Dot Com will begin logging and storing IP numbers of website users in the case that a direct threat or abusive, slanderous comments are made to the webmaster and/or the design team.

The purpose of logging IP numbers is to identify the threatening poster/emailer, their location, and their service provider in the event that s/he attempts to post/email again using the same name or using an alias or assumed name that reveals the same IP number as a previous post/email.

Perceived instances of direct threats and abuse will be logged and reported to the appropriate ISP.

Copies of abusive emails will also be filed with local municipal court authorities if deemed necessary.

IP Logging Procedures

Website user IPs will be logged for a period of 90 days or longer as necessary, after the threatening or abusive poster/emailer has sent any additional emails to the Jeremy Roenick Dot Com webmaster.

The purpose of logging IPs is to establish a pattern of access of
the threatening or abusive poster/emailer, so as to determine if s/he is using a static IP address, a dynamic address within a range of IPs or an utterly dynamic address with no obvious pattern.

Information obtained about a threatening poster/emailer will be preserved in a confidential and secure manner until presented to the proper authorities for appropriate legal action.

As a threatening poster's IP information is gathered, all other IP
log information outside of a threatening poster's IP will be purged after 30 days.

Information obtained from logging of IPs may be used as directed by the webmaster for Jeremy Roenick Dot Com. This may include contacting ISPs regarding possible violations of their terms of service by the threatening posters; contacting the owner of a computer identified as the source of the posts; or any such other measures as may resolve the abuse as authorized by Jeremy Roenick Dot Com.
