    2. Taxes. Customer shall be responsible for all taxes associated with the Services.
  6. Service Address. Customer represents that it owns the real property at the Service Address or has the permission of the owner of such real property to enter into this Agreement.

  9. Maintenance. While Company will endeavor to minimize the impact of any scheduled maintenance outages and provide advance notice of outages to Customer, the Services may be interrupted, suspended or limited from time to time due to routine or unscheduled maintenance, use of the internet by other customers of Company, power outages, weather conditions and other unforeseen consequences, including conditions affecting the internet at locations not owned or controlled by Company.

Furthermore, Customer expressly releases the Company from any and all claims it may have against the Company arising from damages or losses suffered by Customer, including, but not limited to, loss of business, as a result of interruption of the Services for any reason.
  10. Emergency Alerts and 9-1-1 Calls. The following terms shall apply to Customers with VoIP phone services described in Section 3(c) above:
    1. 9-1-1 Calls. Calls to 9-1-1 using VoIP phone service operate differently than traditional wireline calls to 9-1-1. Calls to 9-1-1 using VoIP phone service may not connect to the Public Safety Answering Point (“PSAP”) or may improperly ring to the administrative line of the PSAP, which may not be staffed after hours or by trained 9-1-1 operators. If a call connects to a PSAP, the Customer’s address and phone number may not be transmitted, and the Customer may need to provide his or her location and other information to the PSAP. Calls to 9-1-1 may be limited or unavailable if the Service Address is experiencing a power outage or if Customer is otherwise unable to access the Internet.
    2. Multiple Devices or Phone Numbers. If a Customer has multiple devices associated with a Company phone number and makes an emergency call to 9-1-1, any calls back from the PSAP may or may not ring each associated device. If multiple phone numbers are associated with one Company phone and a call is placed to 9-1-1 from the VoIP phone, the 9-1-1 operator may see a phone number that is different from the VoIP phone number. Generally, that will be the default number for the VoIP device.
    3. Service Address. To be eligible for Company phone services, Customers must have a physical address that may be used to route emergency calls and services. This address must be where Customer intends to use the phone services. The phone equipment should remain directly connected to the Company network box at the Service Address instead of attached to a third party router as these may affect voice quality and 9-1-1- functionality. Company is not responsible for any liability with respect to 9-1-1 calls in the event Customer relocates the phone equipment to an address other than the Service Address without providing Company with at least fifteen (15) business days’ prior written notice.
    4. Do Not Disturb. If certain phone features are enabled on a VoIP phone (such as do not disturb, ring scheduling, or call blocking), a PSAP may not be able to return a call.
    5. Accessibility. Customer who are deaf, hard of hearing, or speech impaired and need to reach emergency services should call 9-1-1 directly using TTY or a telecommunications relay service.
    6. Power. VoIP phones require electricity to operate. In the event of a power outage, Customers will not be able to make any calls (including 9-1-1 calls) unless they have battery backup power. Company shall have no responsibility to arrange for or install battery backup power and shall have no liability whatsoever for failures in service during a power outage, including failure due to the lack or nonperformance of battery backup power. Company does not provide support for maintenance of battery backup equipment.
  11. Telephone Numbers.
    1. Change of Number. Company may change, reassign or eliminate a Customer’s phone number without Customer’s consent. In such event, Company will give Customer notice of such change.
    2. Porting a Number. Customer may port its phone number to another provider at any time, after which Customer will no longer be able to use phone Services. Such a request shall be considered a termination pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. In the event customer terminates the phone Service without porting its phone number to another provider, the phone number will remain with Company.
  12. Compliance with Laws. Customer shall not use the Services for any unlawful purpose. Any illegal internet activity using the Services shall result in immediate termination of this Agreement. Customers shall be solely responsible for any violation of law and all content associated with the use of the Services, whether by Customer or an authorized or unauthorized third party. Without notice or liability to Customer, Company may refer potential violations of law to appropriate law enforcement authorities and may cooperate in the investigation of any suspected wrongdoing. Such actions are not exclusive.
  13. Monitoring. Company reserves the right to monitor Customers’ actions when deemed necessary to troubleshoot connectivity problems or determine if there is an abuse of the Internet Services or violation of this Agreement.
  14. Security. Customer acknowledges and agrees that use of the Services may involve security risks, which may include access of the Equipment or Customer information by other internet users. Customer is responsible for implementing appropriate security measures when using the Services and agrees that Company shall not be responsible for any security breaches.
  15. Warranties. Except as provided in any service level agreement entered into between Company and Customer, COMPANY, ITS OFFICERS, MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES, REPRESENTATIVES AND AGENTS MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY STATED HEREIN, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND SECURITY, AND SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO THE CUSTOMER FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER RESULTING FROM PROVISION OF OR FAILURE TO PROVIDE THE SERVICES.

  16. Limitation of Liability. WITHOUT LIMITING THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 13 ABOVE, COMPANY WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES RESULTING FROM THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES OR TO ACCESS THE INTERNET, RELIANCE ON INFORMATION OBTAINED THROUGH THE INTERNET, INTERRUPTIONS IN SERVICE FOR ANY REASON, DELETION OF FILES OR E- MAIL, LOST DATA, UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO THE CUSTOMER’S RECORDS OR FILES, ERRORS, DEFECTS, DAMAGES TO COMPUTERS AND STORED INFORMATION DUE TO VIRUSES, DELAYS IN OPERATION OR TRANSMISSIONS OR ANY OTHER FAILURE OF PERFORMANCE.
