Terms and Conditions

1. OUR SERVICES

The information provided when using the Services is not intended for distribution to or use by any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation or which would subject us to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction or country. Accordingly, those persons who choose to access the Services from other locations do so on their own initiative and are solely responsible for compliance with local laws, if and to the extent local laws are applicable.

The Services are not tailored to comply with industry-specific regulations (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA), etc.), so if your interactions would be subjected to such laws, you may not use the Services. You may not use the Services in a way that would violate the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA). Unless a HIPAA Business Associate Agreement (BAA) has been signed by us, you agree not to impose any independent obligations upon us when using the Services to store or transmit any "protected health information" (as such term is used in the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996).

Fax numbers provided as part of the Services are United States numbers. Outbound faxing is available to the United States, Canada, and supported international destinations as described on the Site. Fax transmission depends on telephone networks and recipient equipment; delivery times and outcomes may vary.

2. FAX SERVICES AND FAIR USAGE POLICY

We act as a passive conduit for the sending and receiving of your fax communications. You are solely responsible for the contents of your transmissions through the Services. This fair usage policy is designed to prevent fraud and abuse of the Services.

The following is a non-exhaustive list of practices that would not be considered legitimate use of the Services:

• Using the Services to send unsolicited advertising;
• Unusual transmission patterns inconsistent with normal individual or business use, for example, regular faxes of short duration or faxes to a large number of different numbers in a short period of time; and
• Faxing any illegal content.

Your use of the Services is subject to all applicable local, state, national, and international laws and regulations (including but not limited to consumer protection, false advertising, anti-discrimination, unfair competition, and export control laws). You agree:

• not to use the Services for illegal purposes;
• not to interfere with or disrupt networks connected to the Services;
• to comply with all regulations, policies, and procedures of networks connected to the Services;
• not to use the Services to infringe any third party's copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret, or other proprietary rights or rights of publicity or privacy;
• not to transmit through the Services any unlawful, harassing, libelous, abusive, threatening, harmful, vulgar, obscene, or otherwise objectionable material of any kind or nature;
• to comply with all laws regarding the transmission of technical data exported from any country through the Services;
• not to transmit any material that encourages conduct that could constitute a criminal offense or give rise to civil liability;
• not to use the Services to knowingly transmit misleading or inaccurate caller identification or sender information for any reason; and
• not to interfere with another customer's use and enjoyment of the Services or another entity's use and enjoyment of similar services.

The Services make use of the Internet to send and receive information of your own choosing. As a result, your conduct is subject to Internet regulations, policies, and procedures. You agree not to use the Services for chain letters, junk fax or junk mail, spamming, or any use of distribution lists to any person who has not given specific permission to be included in such a process, and you further agree not to attempt to gain unauthorized access to other computer systems.

You agree not to sell, resell, rent, or lease the use of the Services without our prior written permission.

We may, at our option, terminate or suspend our relationship with you and your use of any Services immediately if we determine you are using the Services contrary to these Legal Terms and/or if we determine that your use may create liability for us or compromise or disrupt the Services. Other practices may be relevant in determining legitimate use, and we reserve the right to take any unlawful, prohibited, abnormal, or unusual activity into account in making that determination.

3. UNSOLICITED FAX ADVERTISEMENTS AND SPAM FAXES

The transmission of unsolicited fax advertisements through the Services is prohibited. The sending of unsolicited advertisements by fax is illegal under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) and the Junk Fax Prevention Act, as well as other statutes and regulations. Canada and other jurisdictions also have laws and regulations governing such communications.

If you send fax advertisements through the Services, you represent and warrant that each recipient has given prior express invitation or permission to receive fax advertisements from you, or that you have an established business relationship with the recipient as permitted by applicable law, and that each such fax includes the opt-out notice required by applicable law. You are solely responsible for complying with all laws governing your fax transmissions.

You acknowledge and agree that we, as the customer of record for all fax numbers used with the Services, have any and all rights to assert any and all legal claims available against any third party as a result of your receipt of any unsolicited faxes, including but not limited to claims under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991, and to the extent you have any rights to bring any such claims, you hereby assign any and all such rights to us.

If you receive an unsolicited fax advertisement, please follow any opt-out instructions on the fax. In addition, if you believe your fax number is being abused — for example, through a third party war dialing and phishing for fax numbers and using them to send unsolicited faxes — please contact us immediately by emailing support@bestfax.com.

At our option and without further notice, we may use technologies and procedures, such as filters, that may block or terminate the transmission of unsolicited fax advertisements without delivering them.

Your fax number may not be used as a drop box for responses to spam offers or messages, and you are not permitted to opt in to receive spam faxes on your fax number. If you believe you have received a spam message that uses a Best Fax number as a drop box for responses, please contact us immediately at support@bestfax.com.

Notwithstanding the above, our own communications to our customers, based upon your acceptance of these Legal Terms, are not considered unsolicited fax advertising.

You understand and agree that we are only granting you revocable permission to use the fax number(s) provided as part of the Services, and only until the end of the term of your subscription or until we no longer provide you with the Services.

You understand and agree that we are the customer of record for all fax numbers provided as part of the Services, and as such we have rights with respect to those fax numbers, including the porting, transferring, or switching of numbers to any other service provider, telephone company, person, or entity.

You understand and agree that we are not a telephone company, but rather have a direct relationship with the telecommunications providers that supply the underlying telecommunication services that support the Services. You understand and agree that we are not under any legal obligation to permit you to port any numbers provided as part of the Services, except as provided below, and that you are expressly prohibited from causing or attempting to cause the transfer of the numbers provided with the Services to any other service provider, telephone company, person, or entity without our authorization. If you violate this provision, you agree to immediately return the number provided with the Services and pay us $500 representing liquidated damages reflecting a reasonable measure of the actual or anticipated damages caused and fees incurred by us as a result of your violation.

You must also promptly notify us if your payment card is canceled or if your billing information changes. Sales tax will be added to the price of purchases as deemed required by us. We may change prices at any time. All payments shall be in US dollars.

You agree to pay all charges at the prices then in effect for your purchases, and you authorize us to charge your chosen payment provider for any such amounts upon placing your order. If payment is not received by us from your payment card issuer or its agents, you agree to pay all amounts due upon demand. We reserve the right to correct any errors or mistakes in pricing, even if we have already requested or received payment.

Where not prohibited by law, we may obtain updated payment card details (such as new expiration dates) from your card issuer and use them to bill you, in order to avoid interruptions in the Services.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account upon rejection of any payment card charges or if your card issuer (or its agent or affiliate) seeks return of payments previously made to us when we believe you are liable for the charge. Such rights are in addition to and not in lieu of any other legal rights or remedies available to us. If you have a question about a charge, please contact us at support@bestfax.com within 30 days of the charge before initiating a chargeback or payment dispute.

You are not authorized to charge third-party services provided to you or at your request to a fax number provided with the Services, and you will not request or cause any third-party service provider to charge any such services to a number provided with the Services. Any such charge will allow us to terminate or suspend your account.

You must obtain and pay for all equipment and third-party services (such as Internet access and email service) required for you to access and use the Services. Failure to use your account will not be deemed a basis for refusing to pay or seeking a refund of any charges submitted by us in accordance with these Legal Terms. Except as expressly provided in the "REFUNDS; MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE" section below or as required by applicable law, all charges are non-refundable.

We reserve the right to refuse any order placed through the Services. We may, in our sole discretion, limit or cancel quantities purchased per person, per household, or per order.

22. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Informal Negotiations

To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to these Legal Terms (each a "Dispute" and collectively, the "Disputes") brought by either you or us (individually, a "Party" and collectively, the "Parties"), the Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided below) informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating arbitration. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one Party to the other Party.

Binding Arbitration

If the Parties are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, the Dispute (except those Disputes expressly excluded below) will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WITHOUT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") and, where appropriate, the AAA's Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes ("AAA Consumer Rules"), both of which are available at the American Arbitration Association (AAA) website. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA Consumer Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. The arbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by either Party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. Except where otherwise required by the applicable AAA rules or applicable law, the arbitration will take place in Waukesha, Wisconsin. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Parties may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.

If for any reason, a Dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the Dispute shall be commenced or prosecuted in the state and federal courts located in Waukesha, Wisconsin, and the Parties hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction, and forum non conveniens with respect to venue and jurisdiction in such state and federal courts. Application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the Uniform Computer Information Transaction Act (UCITA) are excluded from these Legal Terms.

If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.

Restrictions

The Parties agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the Parties individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.

Exceptions to Informal Negotiations and Arbitration

The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal negotiations binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a Party; (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.

23. CORRECTIONS

There may be information on the Services that contains typographical errors, inaccuracies, or omissions, including descriptions, pricing, availability, and various other information.

30. MISCELLANEOUS

These Legal Terms and any policies or operating rules posted by us on the Services or in respect to the Services constitute the entire agreement and understanding between you and us. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Legal Terms shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision, and does not waive our right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches. These Legal Terms operate to the fullest extent permissible by law. We may assign any or all of our rights and obligations to others at any time. You may not assign or transfer these Legal Terms or any rights hereunder, and any attempt to the contrary is void. We shall not be responsible or liable for any loss, damage, delay, or failure to act caused by any cause beyond our reasonable control. If any provision or part of a provision of these Legal Terms is determined to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision or part of the provision is deemed severable from these Legal Terms and does not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. There is no joint venture, partnership, employment or agency relationship created between you and us as a result of these Legal Terms or use of the Services. You agree that these Legal Terms will not be construed against us by virtue of having drafted them. You hereby waive any and all defenses you may have based on the electronic form of these Legal Terms and the lack of signing by the parties hereto to execute these Legal Terms.

31. REFUNDS; MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE

To receive a refund of Subscription Fees paid, you must cancel the relevant Service within the first (7) days of your Subscription Term if you are enrolled in a monthly Subscription (each, respectively as applied, the "Refund Eligibility Period"), and submit a refund request to Best Fax.

If you cancel within the specified Refund Eligibility Period (first 7 days), you will be entitled to receive a full refund of the applicable Subscription Fees you paid for such applicable cancelled Service upon request. The ability to cancel and receive a full refund of fees paid during the applicable Refund Eligibility Period for each Service reflects our "Money-Back Guarantee". Our Money-back Guarantee shall only accrue and apply to you upon your compliance with, and subject in all respects to, the terms and conditions of this Agreement, unless such refund is otherwise mandated by local laws or regulations applicable to you. Please note, we do not offer any pro-rated refunds if you wish to cancel or terminate your Subscription after your Refund Eligibility Period has passed.
