As part of the registration process, you must provide us with information regarding Customer’s business (business name, physical address, phone number, URL, DUNS number, company registration number, and industry code), contact information (name, email address, and phone number), the business phone numbers being used, the call purpose, the call category applicable to the calls you are making, and such other information as we may reasonably require. We may also review supplemental data sources in addition to the information submitted. You must provide true, accurate, current, and complete information about the Customer(s) as requested during registration, and you must keep the information true, accurate, current, and complete after registration for as long as you utilize the Services. Once you have been approved, we will share the data collected by us on you with our Distribution Partners so that they are able to accept or reject a request for you to access their Distribution according to their requirements. If Customer breaches these Terms, including, without limitation, all payment obligations, Customer will be strictly prohibited from registering new businesses until the breach has been remedied in full. We may accept or reject your registration in our sole discretion.
  2. Continued Right to Use Phone Numbers. You acknowledge the need for initial and ongoing accuracy with respect to the business registration information provided, including your ownership or right to use the calling party number(s) submitted for use with the Services, and you represent and warrant that you are the owner or otherwise have the right to use the numbers that you are calling from (also referenced as the calling party or A number(s)) as submitted for registration with First Orion and use with the Services. Further, you will promptly advise First Orion in writing when you no longer own or have the right to use any such A number (which may include removal of the A number(s) from registration with First Orion).

4. First Orion Responsibilities

Customer further understands and agrees that each enterprise customer is subject to any vetting and approval requirements for the provision of the Services

6. Ownership and Reservation of Rights

As between the parties, First Orion owns and reserves all right, title, and interest in and to the Customer Portal, the Services, the Documentation, First Orion’s Confidential Information, any data that is derived from the use of the Services that does not directly or indirectly identify Customers, and any feedback or suggestions provided by or on behalf of Customer regarding the Services.

8. Use and Suspension.

  1. We may suspend all or any part of the Services if we, in good faith, determine: (a) that you are in breach of any provision of these Terms; (b) that our provision of the Services is prohibited by applicable law or regulation; (c) that there is any use of the Services by you that in our judgment threatens the security, integrity, or availability of the Services; (d) that information in your account is or becomes untrue, inaccurate, incomplete, or fraudulent; or (e) we reasonably believe that your use of the Services may cause material harm to First Orion, the Services, or other entities using the Services including Distribution Partners.
  2. The Services may also be suspended in their entirety, at an enterprise level, on a business level, or on an individual telephone number basis in connection with any request or directive by a Distribution Partner. We will notify you immediately in the event suspension is necessary including any required corrective actions if applicable.
  3. You agree to reasonably cooperate with First Orion in any investigation into any events that resulted in a suspension. You will remain responsible for the Fees (as defined below) during any period of suspension. However, in the event of a suspension that causes a change in the Services that materially effects the fees being charged, Customer and First Orion will meet to discuss any adjustments

9. Term and Termination

  1. Term. Unless earlier terminated as provided in these Terms, the term applicable to the Services will be as set forth in the applicable Order. In the event no term is specified, the term shall be month to month, and either Customer or First Orion may terminate at any time, effective as of the end of a month.
  2. Termination For Convenience. Unless otherwise set forth in an applicable Order, either party may terminate these Terms for any reason upon thirty (30) days written notice to the other party. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if there is an Order(s) in effect, Customer may not terminate these Terms until such Order(s) has expired or been terminated in accordance with its terms.
  3. Termination for Material Breach. First Orion may terminate these Terms (including all Order(s)) in the event Customer commits any material breach of these Terms and fails to remedy such material breach within thirty (30) days of the date written notice of such material breach is provided. For the avoidance of doubt, any breach of the Acceptable Use Policy will be considered a material breach of these Terms. Customer may also terminate these Terms (including all Order(s)) in the event First Orion commits a material breach of these Terms and fails to remedy such material breach within thirty (30) days of the date written notice of such material breach is provided.
  4. Additional Termination Right. We may terminate all or a portion of the Services provided under an Order to the extent a Distribution Partner precludes or materially modifies our ability to provide such Services. We will provide notice of a termination under this section promptly upon becoming aware of the circumstances giving rise to the termination right.

10. Fees and Payments

  1. Fees. In consideration for the provision of the Services, Customer shall pay the Fees as set forth in each Order between Customer and First Orion. Unless indicated otherwise, Fees are (i) stated in US dollars and (ii) non-cancelable and non-refundable. Except as set forth in an Order, First Orion reserves the right to adjust the Fees by providing written notice to Customer at least sixty (60) days prior to the end of the then-current term (and such adjusted Fees will take effect upon the applicable renewal).
  2. Taxes. All amounts payable by Customer are exclusive of VAT and any other applicable taxes, duties, or levies, which will be payable by Customer in addition to the Fees due. First Orion will include any applicable VAT on its invoices and will provide valid VAT invoices where required by law. Customer will not be responsible for any taxes based on First Orion’s income, profits, or payroll. Customers exempt from paying certain taxes must provide necessary exemption information or a valid exemption certificate issued by the appropriate authority via e-mail to accounting@firstorion.com. Once the exemption request is approved, Customer will be exempt on a going-forward basis. If the appropriate authority determines, at any time, that Customer is not exempt from paying any taxes, Customer will promptly pay such taxes to First Orion, plus any applicable interest or penalties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, First Orion may specify Fees for Services that are all inclusive of taxes and in such event the invoice provided to the Customer will state that the invoiced Fees are all inclusive of taxes. If the Customer is not subject to, or exempt from, all or any portion of the taxes, for those Fees which are all inclusive of taxes, there will be no adjustment to the Fees.
  3. Billing. As part of creating a Customer Account or submitting information in connection with the use of Services, Customer agrees to provide First Orion with updated, accurate, and complete billing information, and Customer authorizes First Orion (either directly or through its Affiliates or other third-parties acting on its behalf) to charge, request, and collect payment (or otherwise refund or take any other billing actions) from Customer’s payment method or designated banking account and to make any inquiries that First Orion (or its Affiliates and/or third-parties acting on its behalf) may consider necessary to validate Customer’s designated payment account or financial information to ensure prompt payment.
  4. Payment. First Orion will invoice Customer on a monthly basis in arrears. Invoices will be sent on the first of each calendar month. Fees for the first and last month may be pro-rated based on the Effective Date. Pro-rated fees for the first month may be included on the invoice for the following calendar month. All payments are due and payable within thirty (30) days of the invoice date (the “Due Date”). In the event an invoice is not paid by its Due Date, such invoice shall bear simple interest at the lower of the highest rate allowable by applicable law or 1.5% per month. If an invoice is unpaid more than thirty (30) days after the Due Date, First Orion may suspend performance under these Terms by providing Customer with at least five (5) days’ prior notice. Payments shall be made by check, ACH, or other electronic means reasonably required by First Orion. Customer may request that First Orion participate in an alternative payment or invoicing method; however, the Due Date will not be suspended during any time period during which the alternative method is being implemented. As mutually agreed by First Orion and Customer, First Orion may delegate or assign invoicing, billing, and collections for the Services to a third party selected by First Orion, including a third party providing other services for Customer.
  5. Payment through Partner. If Customer purchases Services through a Partner, then to the extent there is any conflict between these Terms and the agreement entered between Customer and the respective Partner, including any purchase order (“Partner Agreement”), then, as between Customer and First Orion, these Terms shall prevail. Any rights granted to Customer and/or any of its Users in such Partner Agreement which are not contained in these Terms apply only in connection with the Partner. In that case, Customer must seek redress or enforcement of such rights solely with the Partner and not First Orion. For clarity, Customer’s and its Users’ access to the Services is subject to the receipt from Partner of the payment of the applicable Fees paid by Customer to Partner. Customer hereby acknowledges that at any time, at our discretion, the billing of the Fees may be assigned to us, such that Customer will pay us directly the respective Fees. The amounts paid to First Orion by the Partner for Customer’s use of the Services will be deemed the amount paid or payable by Customer for purposes of Section 14, Limitation of Liability.

10. Confidentiality

  1. Confidential Information. Either party (the “Disclosing Party”) may from time to time disclose Confidential Information to the other party (the “Recipient”). “Confidential Information” is all nonpublic information in any form that is disclosed to either party by or on behalf of the Disclosing Party concerning the business, technology, proprietary software, pricing, business plans, forecasts, marketing information, trade secrets and/or financial performance and strategies of the Disclosing Party which is conveyed to the Recipient orally or in tangible form and is either marked as “confidential” or which, due to the circumstances surrounding its disclosure or its nature or sensitivity, should have been understood by the Recipient as intended to be treated as confidential.
  2. Obligations. Recipient agrees to hold all Confidential Information in confidence and trust and will not disclose or disseminate, or permit any employee, agent or other party working under Recipient’s direction to disclose or disseminate the existence, source, content or substance of any Confidential Information to any other party. Recipient shall use Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party only as necessary for the performance of these Terms. Recipient will employ at least the same methods and degree of care, but no less than a reasonable degree of care, to prevent disclosure of the Confidential Information as Recipient employs with respect to its own confidential trade secrets and proprietary information. Recipient’s employees, independent contractors, and agents will be given access to the Confidential Information only on a need-to-know basis and under a duty to maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information.
  3. Exceptions. Confidential Information will not include information that: (i) is now generally known or available or which hereafter, through no act or failure to act on the part of Recipient, becomes generally known or available; (ii) is rightfully known to Recipient at the time of receiving such information; (iii) is furnished to Recipient by a third party without restriction on disclosure and without a breach by such third party of any confidentiality undertaking with respect thereto; or (iv) is independently developed by Recipient without the use of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information. Recipient may also disclose Confidential Information if disclosure is required by operation of law or if required by a court, tribunal or administrative agency; provided that, unless prohibited by law, the Recipient shall give the Disclosing Party as much advance written notice as is reasonably practicable under the circumstances so as to permit the Disclosing Party to take commercially reasonable actions at its own expense to prevent disclosure.
  4. Remedies. Each party acknowledges that monetary damages may not be a sufficient remedy for unauthorized disclosure or use of Confidential Information and that each party may seek, without waiving any other rights or remedies, such injunctive or equitable relief as may be deemed proper by a court of competent jurisdiction. At Disclosing Party’s option, Recipient shall promptly either destroy all Confidential Information in tangible form in its possession or return all such copies to Disclosing Party, and in either event provide a written certification confirming the same, promptly upon Disclosing Party’s written request.

12. Representations, Warranties, and Disclaimers

  1. Mutual Representations.

Titles and headings of sections of these Terms are for convenience only and will not affect the construction of any provision of these Terms. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency among the following documents, the order of precedence will be (1) the applicable Order, (2) any applicable Service Specific Terms, (3) these Terms, (4) our Acceptable Use Policy, (5) any other terms incorporated by reference herein, and (6) the applicable Documentation.
  2. Assignment. You will not assign, delegate, or otherwise transfer these Terms or any applicable Order(s), in whole or in part, without our prior written consent. Any attempt by you to assign, delegate, or transfer these Terms or any applicable Order(s) without our consent will be null and void. We may assign, delegate, or otherwise transfer these Terms or any applicable Order(s) in whole or in part, without your consent. Subject to this Section, these Terms and any applicable Order(s) will be binding on each party and each party’s successors and assigns.
  3. Relationship. The relationship of the parties is that of independent contractors. Nothing in these Terms is intended to create or will be construed as creating an employer-employee relationship or a partnership, agency, joint venture, or franchise. Each party will be solely responsible for its respective employees and agents and all related costs and expenses. Each party will also be solely responsible for any and all claims, liabilities, damages, or defects of any type that may arise on account of each of its respective activities, or those of its respective employees and agents, in the performance of these Terms. Neither party has the authority to commit the other party in any way and will not attempt to do so or imply that it has the right to do so.
  4. Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable and, in any event, the rest of these Terms will continue in full force and effect.

We will consider a notice to have been received by you within 24 hours of the time a notice is either posted to the Customer Portal or our website or emailed to you.
  6. Force Majeure. No failure, delay, or default in performance of any obligation of a party will constitute an event of default or breach of these Terms to the extent that such failure to perform, delay, or default arises out of a cause, existing or future, that is beyond the control and without negligence of such party, including action or inaction of governmental, civil, or military authority, fire, strike, lockout, or other labor dispute, flood, terrorist act, war, riot, theft, earthquake, or other natural disaster. The party affected by such cause will take all reasonable actions to minimize the consequences of such cause.

Except as provided in these Terms and any exhibits or attachments, applicable Order(s), or other terms incorporated by reference into these Terms, these Terms supersede all prior and contemporaneous proposals, statements, sales materials, presentations, or agreements, oral and written. No oral or written information or advice given by us, our agents, or our employees will create a warranty or in any way increase the scope of the warranties or obligations under these Terms.
