Cyon ISP also may limit, restrict or prohibit access to its system resources as Cyon ISP, in its sole discretion, considers appropriate to provide the availability of such resources.

From time to time Cyon ISP may offer rating systems and filtering software or procedures to help you screen out language or images that you do not wish to receive through your Cyon ISP Services. There is no guarantee that all harmful, offensive, adult or other information you wish to block out will be blocked out because, among other reasons, each rating system depends on the content provider's evaluation and self-rating or on ratings by a third party.

Cyon ISP will comply with these requests only if made by e-mail from an authorized technician designated by you. Internet filtering services may be subject to additional fees.
