Acceptable Use Policy

Vonayo’s cloud-based services enable customer landline phone numbers to send and receive text messages.

Vonayo provides its services subject to the terms and conditions in this Terms of Use (“Terms” or “Agreement”). “Services” include our website, any Vonayo Application Program Interfaces (“API”), our downloadable software applications, and related tools and technologies.

THE TERMS OF USE INCLUDE A CLASS ACTION WAIVER AND A WAIVER OF JURY TRIALS. IN SOME JURISDICTIONS, SUCH WAIVERS MAY BE UNENFORCEABLE. IN SUCH EVENT, THIS CLAUSE WILL HAVE NO LEGAL EFFECT, BUT THE REMAINING PROVISIONS SHALL SURVIVE.

To be eligible to register for a Vonayo Account and use Vonayo’s Services, you must review and accept the terms of this Agreement by (i) visiting, reviewing, using, or accessing the Vonayo website; (ii) clicking on the “I Accept” button or other mechanism provided, or (iii) signing or confirming an Order Form or other agreement incorporating these terms. For purposes of this Agreement, an “Order Form” refers to the document for placing orders for access to and use of the Services and agreed to by you either in writing or by electronic acceptance submission. If you subscribe via Vonayo’s online checkout, then the checkout form submitted by you and accepted by Vonayo constitutes the Order Form for purposes of this Agreement. By entering into an Order Form, you agree to be bound by these Terms and the Order Form.

PLEASE REVIEW THESE TERMS CAREFULLY AS WELL AS OUR ACCEPTABLE USE POLICY (found below) AND OUR PRIVACY POLICY (https://www.vonayo.com/privacy/). ONCE ACCEPTED, THESE TERMS BECOME A BINDING LEGAL COMMITMENT BETWEEN YOU AND VONAYO. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS, YOU MAY NOT ACCESS OR USE VONAYO’S SERVICES.

In this Agreement, “we,” “us,” “our,” or “Vonayo” will refer to American Marketing Agency Inc., 3524 Silverside Road Suite 35B, Wilmington, Delaware 19810. And, the terms “you,” “your,” and “Customer” will refer to you. If you are registering for a Vonayo account or using Vonayo’s Services on behalf of an organization, you are agreeing to these terms for that organization and representing to Vonayo that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms (and, in which case, the terms “you” and “your” or “Customer” will refer to that organization).

Your use of, and participation in certain Services may be subject to additional terms (“Supplemental Terms”) and such Supplemental Terms will be presented to you for your signature. If any of these Terms conflict with the Supplemental Terms, the Supplemental Terms will control with respect to such conflict.

The Services and all associated proprietary information and materials (collectively, the “Company Properties”) are protected by intellectual property laws of the United States and throughout the world. Company Properties are licensed, not sold.

Changes to These Terms. THE TERMS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE BY VONAYO IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION AT ANY TIME. We will take reasonable steps to notify you of any material changes or modifications to these Terms by way of prominent notice on our website or the software application or by email, but you agree to review the website periodically to be aware of any changes or modifications. Your continued use of the Services will be deemed your conclusive acceptance of such changes or modifications. TO ENSURE YOU HAVE THE MOST CURRENT VERSION OF THESE TERMS, PLEASE REGULARLY CHECK THE WEBSITE.

Changes to Our Services. We are always looking to innovate and make Vonayo Services better. As a result, the company may, at any time, without notice or liability, update the Services and Company Properties. Such updates may require you to update third-party software (e.g., your device’s operating system) from time to time in order to continue to use the Services and Company Properties.

Your Account(s). In order to access and use the Company Properties, you are required to become a registered User. For purposes of the Terms, a “User” is a user of the Services who has registered an account with Company (“Account”).

As part of the Account creation process, you’ll be asked to provide your email address, a telephone number, and create a password. For certain Services, we may also require your physical address. You must provide true, accurate, current, and complete information about yourself during the Account creation process. You must also keep that information true, accurate, current, and complete after you create your Account. You represent that you are (x) at least thirteen (13) years old; (y) of legal age to form a binding contract; and (z) not a person barred from using Company Properties under the laws of your place of residence or any other applicable jurisdiction.

If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current, or incomplete, or Vonayo has reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, not current, or incomplete, Vonayo has the right to suspend or terminate your Account and refuse any and all current or future use of Company Properties (or any portion thereof). You agree not to create an Account using a false identity or information or on behalf of someone other than yourself. You agree not to create an Account or use the Company Properties if you have been previously removed by Vonayo, or if you have been previously banned from access to any use of any of the Company Properties.

Administrative Logins. Depending on your Services package, you may be required to create an administrative login (“Admin Login”) associated with your Account. Once an Admin Login has been created, you will be permitted to create up to the total number of additional user logins for which the applicable Service Subscription Fees have been paid (each, a “User Login”), if any. You will be solely responsible for all activities that occur under User Logins associated with your Account. User Logins may not be shared, transferred, or disclosed to any individual not expressly authorized as a User.

You are solely responsible for all use (whether or not authorized) of our Services under your Account(s), including for the quality and integrity of your Customer Data and each of your applications. You are also solely responsible for all use and for all acts and omissions of anyone that has access to the Services under your Account. You agree to take all reasonable precautions to prevent unauthorized access to or use of our Services and will notify us promptly of any unauthorized access or use at support@vonayo.com. We will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from unauthorized use of your Account.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, you acknowledge and agree that you shall have no ownership or other property interest in your Account, and you further acknowledge and agree that all rights in and to your Account are and shall forever be owned by and inure to the benefit of Vonayo.

Access and Use of Our Services. You may access and use our Services, on a non-exclusive, non-transferable (except as otherwise expressly provided herein), non-sublicensable basis, solely in strict compliance with these Terms and the Vonayo’s Acceptable Use Policy (“AUP”), which may be updated from time to time, solely for your business purposes. If applicable, you may access and use the Vonayo API solely for the purpose of accessing the Services. We may limit: (i) the number of network calls that you may make via the API; (ii) the maximum file size; and (iii) the maximum Content that may be accessed, or anything else about the API and the Content it accesses that we deem appropriate, in our sole discretion. We may impose or modify these limitations without notice. We may utilize technical measures to prevent over-usage or stop usage of the API by you or any other user after any usage limitations are exceeded or suspend your access to the API with or without notice to you in the event you exceed any such limitations. There may be certain software included in the Services that is offered under an open-source license and there may be provisions in the open-source license associated with such software that expressly override these Terms.

Your access to and use of the Services must be in strict compliance with Applicable Law. “Applicable Law” includes all applicable laws, rules, and regulations applicable to you, your business, or the subject matter of this Agreement, including without limitation, laws governing the use of individual information, deceptive and misleading advertising, electronic commercial communications, telemarketing, and other similar laws, which include without limitation the U.S. Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991, U.S. Controlling the Assault of Non-Solicited Pornography and Marketing Act of 2003, and the Canada Anti-SPAM Legislation, if applicable, and each as amended.

License To Your Content. In order to enable Vonayo to send and deliver your messages and otherwise provide you the Services, you grant Vonayo a fully paid, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive right (including any moral rights) and license to use, distribute, reproduce, Your Content (in whole or in part) for the purposes of operating and providing the Company Properties to you. You warrant that the holder of any worldwide intellectual property right, including moral rights, in Your Content, has completely and effectively waived all such rights and validly and irrevocably granted to you the right to grant the license stated above. You agree that you, not Vonayo, are responsible for all of Your Content that you Make Available on or in the Company Properties.

Company Properties. Vonayo may use certain third-party providers to provide technologies and services to support the Services, such as spam filtering, software firewall protection technologies, and hosting service providers (“Third-Party Technologies”). With the exception of the rights and licenses expressly set forth in Section 4 above, nothing in these Terms grants any right, title, or interest in or to any Intellectual Property Rights in or relating to the Company Properties or Third-Party Technologies. For purposes of these Terms, “Intellectual Property Rights” means any and all registered and unregistered rights granted, applied for, or otherwise now or hereafter in existence under or related to any patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, database protection, or other intellectual property rights laws in any part of the world. All right, title, and interest in and to the Company Properties and the Third-Party Technologies are and will remain with Vonayo and the respective rights holders in the Third-Party Technologies.

You will not remove, alter, or obscure any copyright, trademark, service mark, or other proprietary rights notices incorporated in or accompanying the Company Properties. Vonayo’s stylized name and other related graphics, logos, service marks, and trade names used on or in connection with the Company Properties are the trademarks of Vonayo and may not be used without our express permission. Other trademarks, service marks, and trade names that may appear on or in the Company Properties are the property of their respective owners.

Our Use and Storage of Customer Data. You acknowledge that you have read Vonayo’s Privacy Policy and understand that it sets forth how we will collect, store, and use your Customer Data. “Customer Data” consists of information made available to us through your use of our Services under these Terms, which includes information such as your name, contact information, billing records, call or messaging logs, and traffic routing information, as well as the content of communications sent through or integrated with our Services, such as audio recordings, message bodies, and call recording transcriptions. If you do not agree to Vonayo’s Privacy Policy, you must stop using our Services.

Except as may otherwise be agreed by Vonayo and you in writing, Vonayo may periodically delete your Customer Data. Further, data storage is not guaranteed by us, and you agree that we will not have any liability whatsoever for any damage, liabilities, losses, or any other consequences that you may incur relating to the loss or deletion of Customer Data.

You further acknowledge and agree that we may access or disclose Customer Data, including the content of communications stored on our systems, if: (i) we believe that disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with any Applicable Law, legal process, or government request, (ii) to enforce our agreements and policies, (iii) to protect the security or integrity of our Services, (iv) to protect ourselves, our other customers, or the public from harm or illegal activities, or (v) to respond to an emergency which we believe in good faith requires us to disclose data to assist in preventing a death or serious bodily injury.

Certain Services may enable you to specify the level at which such Services restrict access to Your Content. You are solely responsible for applying the appropriate level of access to Your Content. If you do not choose, the system may default to its most permissive setting. You agree that Vonayo retains the right to create reasonable limits on Vonayo’s use and storage of the Content, including Your Content, such as limits on file size, storage space, processing capacity, and similar limits described in the web pages accompanying the Services and as otherwise determined by Vonayo in its sole discretion.

You acknowledge and agree that the availability of any software application downloadable via an App Store (each an “App”) as part of the Services is dependent on the App Store from which you received the application license. You acknowledge that the Terms are between you and Vonayo and not with the App Store. Vonayo, not the App Store, is solely responsible for the Company Properties, including the App, the content thereof, maintenance, support services, and warranty therefor, and addressing any claims relating thereto (e.g., product liability, legal compliance, or intellectual property infringement). In order to use the App, you must have access to a wireless network, and you agree to pay all fees associated with such access.

Subscription Term, Fees and Payment Terms. You agree to pay the fees generated under your Account.

16.1 Generally.Unless otherwise noted, payment for all Subscription Service Fees is due on the due date. We reserve the right to charge interest on all undisputed late payments. Payment for undisputed amounts not received within 30 days of any given due date may be assessed interest of 1% per month, or the maximum charge permitted by law. Payment method will be as specified in your Order Form and may include credit card, ACH, wire or check. Depending on the agreed-upon payment method, you must provide Vonayo with a valid credit card (Visa, MasterCard, or any other issuer accepted by us) (“Payment Provider”), or ACH or wire payment information. Your Payment Provider agreement governs your use of the designated credit card account, and you must refer to that agreement and not the Terms to determine your rights and liabilities. By providing Vonayo with your credit card number account and associated payment information, you agree that Vonayo is authorized to immediately charge your Account for all Service Subscription Fees due and payable to Vonayo hereunder and that no additional notice or consent is required. You agree to immediately notify Vonayo in writing of any change in your billing address or the credit card or billing information, used for payment hereunder.

16.2 Service Subscription Fees.You will be responsible for payment of the applicable fees for any Services (each, a “Service Subscription Fee”) beginning on of the Subscription Term Start Date and at the beginning of any Renewal Term. The “Subscription Term Start Date” is the date specified in your Order Form, or if no Order Form is in effect, the date that you create or upgrade your Account and select your package and associated features and your Account has been confirmed accepted by Company. Service Subscription Fees may include an initial, one-time activation fee. Service Subscription Fees for software included in the Services include recurring monthly subscription fees. Service Subscription Fees for API may include recurring monthly minimum Service Subscription Fees, per SMS and/or per MMS message Fees, as well as recurring monthly Service Subscription Fees for each text-enabled phone number being utilized. Except as set forth in the Terms, all Service Subscription Fees are non-refundable.

16.3 Automatic Renewal.Your “Initial Subscription Period” will be as designated in your Order Form or other Account set-up documentation, beginning on the Subscription Term Start Date and ending on the last day of the designated subscription period. Following your Initial Subscription Period, your subscription will automatically renew for successive equivalent periods (each a “Renewal Term”). You agree that your Account will be subject to this automatic renewal feature unless you cancel your subscription in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 23 of these Terms. By subscribing, you authorize Vonayo to charge your Payment Provider or via the ACH payment method now (or after the expiration of your free trial if applicable), and again at the beginning of any subsequent Renewal Term. Upon renewal of your subscription, if Vonayo does not receive payment from your Payment Provider or via the ACH payment method, (i) you agree to pay all amounts due on your Account upon demand, and/or (ii) you agree that Vonayo may either terminate or suspend your subscription and continue to attempt to charge your Payment Provider or ACH payment method until payment is received.

16.4 Changes to Service Subscription Fees.Vonayo reserves the right to increase the Service Subscription Fees applicable to any Renewal Term upon at least forty-five (45) days written notice to you, with any such increase to go into effect at the beginning of the next Renewal Term.

16.5 Cancellation/Reduction in Services.Customer is entering into a contract with Vonayo for Services for the subscription period designated in the Order Form. Vonayo’s policy is to bill for the entire term in advance. Cancellation or reduction in the number of lines does not relieve the Customer’s obligation to pay the remaining balance as specified in the Order Form. Should Vonayo agree to payment arrangements other than payment in advance for any subscription period, and Customer elects to cancel or reduce their subscription during the subscription period, the remaining balance of the full Service Subscription Fee will become immediately due and owing, and in the event payment is made via a Payment Provider or ACH payment method, the remaining outstanding Service Subscription Fee will be charged upon cancellation. If Customer is paying from invoices, the remaining balance of the full Service Subscription Fee will be billed upon cancellation. Payment is due upon receipt of the invoice. If you cancel your subscription, your ability to use the Services will terminate at the end of the then current subscription period unless expressly otherwise agreed to between the parties and you will not be eligible for a prorated refund of any portion of the Service Subscription Fee paid for the then-current subscription period.

16.6 Change in Your Phone Carrier.You must exercise caution and judgment when changing carriers. Porting your voice service from one carrier to another may break the texting route. Vonayo has no control over this so you must check with your carrier prior to porting your number. You will remain responsible for all charges associated with your account notwithstanding a break in the texting route as a result of your change of carriers.

Taxes. Vonayo’s Service Subscription Fees are exclusive of any applicable Sales Tax, VAT taxes, and use taxes, utility user’s fees, excise taxes, any other business and occupations taxes, 911 taxes, franchise fees and universal service fund fees or taxes and carrier surcharges imposed on or with respect to our Services whether these taxes are imposed directly on you or on Vonayo (collectively, the “Taxes”). If any Services, or payments for any Services, under the Terms are subject to Taxes, or in any country/jurisdiction, and you have not remitted the applicable Taxes to Vonayo, you will be responsible for the payment of such Taxes and any related penalties or interest to the relevant tax authority, and you will indemnify Vonayo for any liability or expense we may incur in connection with such Taxes. Upon our request, you will provide us with official receipts issued by the appropriate taxing authority, or other such evidence that you have paid all applicable Taxes. For purposes of this section, “Sales Tax” shall mean any sales or use tax, and any other tax measured by sales proceeds, that Vonayo is permitted to pass to its customers, that is the functional equivalent of a sales tax where the applicable taxing jurisdiction does not otherwise impose a sales or use tax. For purposes of this section, Taxes do not include any taxes that are imposed on or measured by the net income, property tax or payroll taxes of Vonayo.

Ownership and Confidentiality.

18.1 General. As between you and Vonayo, we exclusively own and reserve all right, title, and interest in and to our Company Properties.

18.2 Feedback. We welcome your feedback on our Services.

Subject to these Terms, we both grant each other the right to use and display each other’s name and logo(s) (the “Licensor Marks”) on our respective websites and in other promotional materials solely in connection with each of our respective activities under these Terms. All of this use of the Licensor Marks will be in accordance with the each other’s applicable usage guidelines and will inure to the benefit of Licensor. The one of us using the other’s Licensor Marks under this subsection will not use, register or take other action with respect to any of the Licensor Marks, except to the extent allowed in advance in writing by the one of us whose Licensor Marks are being used. In using the Licensor Marks under this subsection, the one of us using the other’s Licensor Marks will always use the then-current Licensor Marks and will not add to, delete from or modify any of Licensor Marks. The one of us using the other’s Licensor Marks will not, at any time, misrepresent the relationship between us. The one using the other’s Licensor Marks will not present itself as an affiliate or other legal agent of the one of us whose Licensor Marks are being used. The rights to use and display each other’s Licensor Marks under this subsection will end automatically upon any expiration or termination of the parties’ relationship.

18.4 “Confidential Information” means any information or data, regardless of whether it is in tangible form, disclosed by either party that is marked or otherwise designated as confidential or proprietary or that should otherwise be reasonably understood to be confidential given the nature of the information and the circumstances surrounding disclosure. “Confidential Information” does not include any information which: (i) is publicly available through no fault of receiving party; (ii) was properly known to receiving party, without restriction, prior to disclosure by the disclosing party; (iii) was properly disclosed to receiving party, without restriction, by another person without violation of disclosing party’s rights; or (iv) is independently developed by the receiving party without use of or reference to the disclosing party’s Confidential Information.

Each party agrees that it will use the Confidential Information of the other party solely in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and it will not use, access or permit the use or access of Confidential Information of the other party except as necessary to exercise its rights or perform its obligations under and in accordance with these Terms or as expressly permitted by the disclosing party in writing. Each party agrees to exercise due care in protecting the Confidential Information from unauthorized use and disclosure. Each party may disclose the Confidential Information of the other party, in whole or in part to its employees, representatives, actual or potential investors and subcontractors who have a need to know and are legally bound to keep such information confidential consistent with the terms of this Section. Either party may disclose the Confidential Information of the other party as required by law, upon prior written notice to the other party (where allowed by law); provided that such party will use its reasonable efforts to minimize such disclosure to the extent permitted by applicable law.

18.5 Injunctive Relief. The parties expressly acknowledge and agree that no adequate remedy exists at law for an actual or threatened breach of this Section 18 and that, in the event of an actual or threatened breach of the provisions of this Section, the non-breaching party will be entitled to seek immediate injunctive and other equitable relief, without the requirement to post bond and without waiving any other rights or remedies available to it. Each party will promptly notify the other in writing if it becomes aware of any violations of the confidentiality obligations set forth in this Section.

General.

26.1 No Waiver. Vonayo’s failure to enforce at any time any provision of these Terms or our AUP does not waive our right to do so later.

Any attempt by you to assign, delegate, or transfer in violation of this subsection will be null and void.

In the event that the last e-mail address you provided to Vonayo is not valid, or for any reason is not capable of delivering to you any notices required/permitted by the Terms, Vonayo’s dispatch of the e-mail containing such notice will nonetheless constitute effective notice. You may give notice to Vonayo at the following address: American Marketing Agency Inc. 3524 Silverside Road Suite 35B, Wilmington, Delaware 19810 or by emailing notice@vonayo.com. Any mailed notice shall be deemed given when received by Vonayo by letter delivered by nationally recognized overnight delivery service or first class postage prepaid mail at the above address.

If you are a California resident, you hereby expressly waive any rights you may have under California Civil Code Section 1542, which states “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which, if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”

For contractual purposes you (a) consent to receive communications from Vonayo in an electronic form or through phone calls to any number associated with your Account; and (b) agree that all terms and conditions, agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications that Vonayo provides to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications would satisfy if it were to be in writing. The foregoing does not affect your statutory rights.

26.9 Force Majeure. No failure, delay or default in performance of any obligation of a party shall 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 and other natural disaster. The party affected by such cause shall take all reasonable actions to minimize the consequences of any such cause.
