The Kinderhook Memorial Library will not be responsible for any information that is compromised, or for any damage caused to an individual’s hardware or software due to electric surges, security issues, viruses, hacking, spamming, or other causes. The Kinderhook Memorial Library assumes no responsibility for the safety of equipment or for computer or other wireless device configurations, security, or data files resulting from connection to the Kinderhook Memorial Library wireless network.
Library staff cannot assist in making changes to user’s network settings or perform any troubleshooting on the user’s own computer. Please refer to your owner’s manual or technical support provided by the manufacturer. Since computer equipment is subject to repair and “downtime” the Library does not guarantee that the network will always be available. The Library also reserves the right to curtail or discontinue wireless service at any time.
Any use of the Kinderhook Memorial Library wireless network that exerts an exorbitant strain on the library’s network and compromises patron and staff use is not allowed.
