Fair Use Policy - Kloudify Teams Calling

The purpose of our Fair Use Policy is to ensure that all our customers can access our services; and do
not use our services in a manner that we consider ‘unreasonable’ or ‘unacceptable’.

In addition, the Fair Use Policy sets out your responsibilities when you use our service. It also
confirms steps we may take to ensure and monitor compliance with this policy as well as setting out
our responsibilities to comply with directions from regulatory and other law enforcement bodies.

It also explains how we provide certain services to you, as well as what steps we take to manage our
network in times of congestion.

The Fair Use Policy applies to our Teams Calling (KloudTalk) services.

Monitoring Compliance

We are under no obligation to monitor your calling. However, we may from time-to-time monitor
transmissions to protect our network, our other customers and the general public as well as to
ensure you are complying with the terms of this policy. We may need to disclose any findings as
required to regulatory authorities.

We take active steps to minimise the amount of unreasonable use of our network, which may
include:

  • Restricting your ability to make and receive calls.
  • Limiting your access to the service.
  • Requiring you to rectify any misconfigured mail and/or proxy servers.
    We may provide your username, IP address or identifying material to law enforcement authorities
    when required to do so.

Breach of the Fair Use Policy

If you breach any part of this Fair Use Policy we will, generally speaking, contact you and, if
appropriate, ask you to modify your use of the service. If you do not modify your use of the service
we may suspend or cancel your service without notice to you.

If the limit of 150 minutes per user or channel is breached in any given period we will enforce our
Pay as you Go plan rates to the calls that exceed this limit.

However, in certain circumstances such as illegality, or non-ordinary use, we reserve the right to
suspend or cancel your service immediately and without notice to you.

Upon cancellation of an account, we are authorised to delete any files, data or information
associated with the account.
