The text which you quoted is a standard clause.  It is usually about 
misuse of corporate resources.  It would likely be difficult to 
substantiate that there was a breach related to the second part of 
the text.  The reply to the last question could be "not applicable" [1].

1. John submitted a draft about 15 years ago.  The draft could shine 
some light on why it is not applicable.
