If the CLIENT reserves from 20:00 onward, the hours used will be charged plus 2 additional nighttime hours for the period from 18:00 to 20:00, even if that period is not used, due to the attendant remaining to monitor the meeting.

IT AND TECHNOLOGY POLICY (SHARED/EXCLUSIVE INTERNET)
This Term is part of the PROVIDER’s Service Agreement and supplements it, since the CLIENT has contracted a plan with the PROVIDER and wishes to use its Telecommunications and Internet services.
- USE OF THE LOCAL NETWORK: The Client will have access points available to the wired local network (RJ-45), segmented by VLAN (Virtual LAN), for use, which may or may not be exclusive (exclusive VLAN). The installation of repeater equipment such as Hub, Bridge, Access Point (Wi-Fi), etc., is prohibited.
- USE OF THE WIRELESS NETWORK (WI-FI): The CLIENT will have access points available to the shared Wi-Fi local network to serve all clients of the unit, and Hotspot authentication may be required each time it connects. As it is shared Wi-Fi, connection privacy is not guaranteed and the CLIENT must take the necessary precautions to ensure the privacy and integrity of its connected device.
- USE OF THE INTERNET: The internet access offered to the CLIENT is shared and dimensioned to provide working conditions and good browsing and use of the services available through the Internet. No content control is applied to internet access, and it is the CLIENT’s full responsibility to ensure that it is used lawfully and only for appropriate websites. It is also recommended that the CLIENT’s workstations have firewall mechanisms and/or other protections that ensure their integrity, and such resources are the CLIENT’s sole responsibility. Although no content control is applied to the CLIENT’s internet access, bandwidth usage is controlled to ensure that all clients have good browsing speed on the shared link. In special cases where the traffic generated by the CLIENT cannot be subject to latency or requires specific configurations (VOIP, VPN, VC, etc.), dedicated internet access with public IPs may be required, which will be subject to a specific project and quote developed by the network team, according to the CLIENT’s demand and needs. Any change in the CLIENT’s internet usage profile or activity not foreseen at the time of contracting must be promptly reported to the PROVIDER. The PROVIDER shall not be responsible for any problem generated by the use of specific access without its knowledge.
- USE OF MULTIFUNCTION DEVICES (PRINTER, SCANNER AND/OR COPIER): The CLIENT will have shared multifunction devices available for printing, scanning, and/or copying documents. The installation of this type of equipment on the wired network or Wi-Fi by the Client itself is prohibited, except in cases where there is a specific agreement for the use of such equipment in exclusive rooms.
- USE AND STORAGE OF EQUIPMENT: Shared environments were designed for connecting portable equipment, typically notebooks and tablets, during the presence of the CLIENT’s user at the units, and such equipment may not remain without a responsible user present or overnight. In specific cases, the use of non-portable equipment, such as desktops, in shared areas may be authorized; however, the CLIENT shall be responsible for removing them at the end of the workday. In exclusive rooms, the CLIENT has the right to use non-portable equipment permanently connected to the network, but must ensure that the access doors are properly locked when no CLIENT users are present.
- USE OF MOBILE PHONES AND TABLETS: The CLIENT may use the shared Wi-Fi local network to connect an additional device such as a mobile phone (smartphone) or tablet for internet access and use of the PROVIDER’s mobile application for reservations, printing, check-in, check-out, etc.; Hotspot authentication may be required each time it connects. As it is shared Wi-Fi, the CLIENT must use it with discretion so as not to saturate the use of resources and must take the necessary precautions to ensure the privacy and integrity of its connected device.
- ACCESS CONTROL: The CLIENT must safeguard its access identifier for doors, turnstiles, and gates, and must not access restricted areas without authorization or grant access to other people. Credentials and passwords for access to systems, websites, and applications are for the personal and non-transferable use of the contacts provided by the CLIENT.
- RESTRICTIONS: The CLIENT assumes full responsibility for all its access to and use of any item mentioned above, including all data to which it has access, releasing the PROVIDER from any civil or criminal liability, whether nationally or internationally, federally or at the state level, and must use the tools provided for lawful purposes. In addition, the CLIENT must maintain basic security and protection, including antivirus, personal firewall, anti-spam, etc., on its systems to prevent misuse and avoid breaching this agreement. Furthermore, the CLIENT acknowledges that the PROVIDER does not monitor the content of information transmitted through its telecommunications lines or equipment. The PROVIDER accepts no liability for the content of the CLIENT’s transmissions.
And being duly agreed and contracted, the parties sign this Agreement in the presence of two (2) witnesses.
The parties expressly agree that this agreement may be executed electronically and/or digitally, including through electronic signature platforms, recognizing the legal validity, authenticity, integrity, and effectiveness of such signatures under the applicable law. The electronic signature shall have the same legal effect as a handwritten signature for all legal purposes.
