Acceptable Use Policy - Enforceability

Enforceability

Example:

6.3 This Policy shall be governed by the laws of England and the parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of England and Wales.

And of course with the ever widening of the number of jurisdictions covered by the Internet, the AUP document needs to indicate the jurisdiction, meaning the laws that are applicable and govern the use of an AUP. Even if a company is only located in one jurisdiction and the AUP applies to only its employees naming the jurisdiction saves difficulties of interpretation should legal action be required to enforce its statements.
