B. Title 47, Section 605(e)4, United States Code (U.S.C.) makes it a federal crime to modify
Equipment to receive encrypted (scrambled) television programming without payment of
required subscriptions. Conviction can result in a fine of up to $500,000 and imprisonment for
five years, or both. Any person who procures Equipment that has been so modified is an
accessory to that offense and may be punishable in the same manner. Investigative authority for
violations lies with the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Equipment may incorporate copyright
protection technology that is protected by U.S. patents and other intellectual property rights. Use
of such copyright protection technology must be authorized by Macrovision, and is intended for
home and other limited pay-per-view uses only unless otherwise authorized by Macrovision.
Reverse engineering or disassembly is prohibited.
9. GENERAL
A. Physical Address/Change of Address. When setting up your DISH Network account, you
agree to provide us with the physical street address where your Equipment will be located and
your Services will be provided. A post office box does not constitute a physical address and is
not sufficient to meet this requirement. You agree to give us prompt notice of your change of
name, mailing address, physical address where your Equipment is located, and telephone
number. You may do this by notifying our Customer Service Center by telephone or in writing at
the phone number or mailing or e-mail address set forth in the first paragraph of this Agreement.
B. Notice. Any notice required or permitted to be given by us under this Agreement may be
provided via the mail, on your billing statement, as a bill insert, via broadcast on a television
channel, through publication on the website set forth in the first paragraph of this Agreement, by
telephone or by any other reasonable means. If we send you notice by mail, on your billing
statement or as a bill insert, it will be considered given when deposited in the U.S. Mail,
addressed to you at your then-current billing address in our records. If we send you notice via
broadcast on a television channel or through publication on the website set forth in the first
paragraph of this Agreement, it will be considered given when first broadcast or published. If we
send you notice by telephone, it will be considered given when personally delivered to you or
when left as a message at your then-current phone number in our records. Unless otherwise
specified in this Agreement, any notice required or permitted to be given by you under this
Agreement shall be in writing and shall be sent by first class mail addressed to us at the mailing
address set forth in the first paragraph of this Agreement, and shall be deemed given when
received by us at such mailing address.
C. Credit Checks. You authorize DISH Network to investigate your financial responsibility and
creditworthiness, including without limitation acquiring credit reports and histories, and to report
any payment defaults to credit reporting agencies. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, you have
the right to notify DISH Network if you believe we have reported inaccurate information about
your account to any consumer reporting agency. Please include the specific item of dispute and
why you believe the information reported is in error in any such notice.
D. Personal Information. If you have an on-line account with us, you are fully responsible for
maintaining the confidentiality of your password and account username and for all activities that
occur under your password and/or account username. You agree to: (i) keep your account
username and password confidential and not share them with anyone else, and (ii) immediately
notify us of any unauthorized use of your password and/or account username or other breach of
security.
E. Applicable Law. This Agreement, including without limitation all matters relating to its validity,
construction, performance and enforcement, and any claim, complaint or dispute arising out of
or related to this Agreement or Services, shall be governed by the laws and regulations of the
State of Colorado without giving effect to its conflict of law provisions. These terms and
conditions are subject to amendment, modification or termination if required by such laws or
regulations. If any provision in this Agreement is declared to be illegal or in conflict with any law
or regulation, that provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make such
provision legal and no longer in conflict with such law or regulation, without affecting the validity
of any other provisions.
