PLEASE REVIEW THESE TERMS CAREFULLY. ONCE ACCEPTED, THESE TERMS BECOME A BINDING LEGAL COMMITMENT BETWEEN YOU AND FIRST ORION. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS, YOU SHOULD NOT ACCEPT THESE TERMS, CREATE AN ACCOUNT, OR USE THE SERVICES (AS DEFINED BELOW).

THE SERVICES ARE INTENDED FOR BUSINESS USE OR USE IN CONNECTION WITH AN INDIVIDUAL’S TRADE, CRAFT, OR PROFESSION ONLY, AND ARE NOT FOR PERSONAL, FAMILY OR HOUSEHOLD USE.

If you have any questions, you can contact Customer Support at enterprise support@firstorion.com.

In these Term of Service (referred to as these “Terms” or this “Agreement”), the terms “you,” “your,” or “Customer” refer to you. If you are creating an account in order to use the Services on behalf of an organization, then you are agreeing to these Terms for that organization and promising to us that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms (and, in which case, the terms “you,” “your,” or “Customer” refer to that organization). The exception to this is if that organization has a separate written agreement with us covering the use of the Services, in which case that agreement will govern such use. The terms “we,” “us,“ “our” or “First Orion” refer to First Orion Corp., a Delaware corporation, with its principal place of business located at 520 Main Street, North Little Rock, Arkansas 72114. First Orion or Customer may also be referred to individually as “party” and together as “parties” in these Terms. To be eligible to use the Services, you must review and accept these Terms.

1. Overview of the Services

These Terms set forth the terms and conditions for your use of the Services provided by First Orion, including those Services provided through the First Orion Customer Portal (“Customer Portal”). The Customer Portal allows you to access several services which provide greater transparency to called parties about who is calling them and why. By registering with the Customer Portal, you will receive our “Basic Service” for free. The Basic Service provides you with the opportunity to register your business and the numbers that you own or have the right to use so that the legitimate use of those numbers is not tagged by us as scam or nuisance. The services offered through our Customer Portal which are in addition to the Basic Service are generally provided for a fee.

When we refer to the “Services” in these Terms, we mean all products and services (including the Basic Service) provided by First Orion or our Affiliates, as applicable, including those Services provided through the Customer Portal, those products and services that are ordered by you under an Order Form (as defined below), and access to any portal, tool, plug-in or application programming interface (“API”) made available by us as part of the Services. A more detailed description of the Services can be found in the Services Specific Terms, documentation and additional resources made available to you. The Services include technical support related to use of the Customer Portal, the Customer Portal itself, and the features, functionality, and connectivity provided through our proprietary platform. You acknowledge and agree that the Services are not intended to satisfy any legal or regulatory requirement applicable to you.

In order to consume some or all of the Services, it may be necessary to connect your applications, websites, products, services or platforms to the First Orion Customer Portal and you may access First Orion Preview Materials, Credentials or First Orion Developer Tools (as defined in the Developer Terms) to do so. In addition to these Terms, provisions applicable to your access and use of First Orion Preview Materials, Credentials and Developers Tools can be found in the Developer Terms.

When we refer to an “Affiliate” in these Terms, we mean any entity that directly or indirectly controls or is controlled by, or is under common control with, the party specified. For purposes of this definition, “control” means direct or indirect ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting interests of the subject entity. Each of your Affiliates that wants to use the Services must accept these Terms individually and create its own account. In the event our Affiliates provide any part of the Services, we will be responsible for the Services our Affiliates provide.

When we refer to “you,” “your,” or “Customer,” we recognize that we may have a direct relationship with the party utilizing the Services or that the party utilizing the Services is doing so through a partner, reseller, or other channel through which the Services are made available for use. These Terms shall apply to any of the foregoing and we may suspend or terminate all or any portion of the Services in the event a party has not to our satisfaction accepted these Terms.

2. Updates to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will provide you with prior written notice of any material updates at least thirty (30) days in advance of the effective date of the updated Terms; provided, however, we may not be able to provide thirty (30) days prior written notice of material updates that result from changes in laws, regulations, or requirements from third parties we utilize to provide the Services. The updated version of these Terms will be available on the First Orion Global Privacy and Legal Dashboard (https://firstorion.com/first-orion-global-privacy-and-compliance-dashboard/)and will supersede all prior versions.

Notices for material updates to these Terms will be given in accordance with Section 12.5 (Notices). Except as otherwise specified by us, updates will be effective and binding upon the date indicated at the top of these Terms. Your continued use of the Services on or after the date the updated version of these Terms is effective constitutes your acceptance of such updated Terms. If you do not agree to the updated version of these Terms, you must stop using the Services immediately.

You must provide true, accurate, current, and complete information about the Customer(s) as requested during the registration process, and you must keep the information true, accurate, current, and complete after you register each Customer account and utilize the Services.
