Terms and Conditions for Public IP Addresses. The services provided under this Amendment are
subject to the following terms and conditions:
a.
Security Issues. An AT&T public Internet Protocol (IP) address is an IP address number assigned
to an eligible AT&T wireless device. A wireless device assigned to a public IP address can access,
and be exposed to, the public internet via the AT&T Private Mobile Connection platform. Devices
with public IP addresses, especially those exposed to the internet, are vulnerable to data mining
and increased security risks, including malware and DDoS attacks. Customer assumes all
responsibility for the security of its wireless devices assigned to a public IP address, including
compliance with any security recommendations made by the device manufacturer.
b.
SIM Activation. The SIM on a wireless device must be activated before the device can be
assigned to a public IP address.
c.
Unlimited Plans Prohibited. A public IP address cannot be assigned to any wireless device using
any unlimited wireless data plan, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Parties.
d.
Limited Resource. Public IP addresses are a limited resource. Accordingly, AT&T reserves the
right, in its sole discretion, to limit the number of public IP addresses available to Customer and/or
deny any requests for public IP addresses.
e.
No Ownership Right. Customer does not own, nor has any property interest in, a public static IP
address- assigned to any wireless device. AT&T shall have an unrestricted right to reclaim and/or
reassign any public static IP address if the SIM on an associated wireless device is deactivated or if
the public static IP address remains unused for 12 months.
f.
No Usage Alerts. Due to systems limitations, Customer’s CRUs on rate plans associated with a
wireless device assigned to a public static IP address will not receive data usage alerts. Customer
is solely responsible for tracking all data usage on wireless devices assigned to a public static IP
address and remains responsible for any data overages.
g.
Modification. AT&T reserves the right to modify or discontinue the provisioning of public static
IP addresses without prior notice to Customer.
h.
Customer Responsibilities. Customer shall provide any information and assistance as may be
requested by AT&T related to the set-up, maintenance, and termination of any public static IP
addresses.
i.

“AS IS” BASIS WITH NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OF ANY KIND. IN NO EVENT
SHALL AT&T OR ITS AFFILIATES BE LIABLE TO CUSTOMER, CUSTOMER'S AFFILIATES OR
THIRD PARTIES CLAIMING THROUGH CUSTOMER FOR MONETARY DAMAGES OF ANY
KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, RELIANCE OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, EXPENSES ASSOCIATED WITH THE USE OF THE PUBLIC
STATIC IP ADDRESSES OR LOST PROFITS OR REVENUES, ARISING OUT OF ANY BREACH
OR ALLEGED BREACH OF THE SERVICES PROVIDED UNDER THIS AMENDMENT.
