These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are a contract entered into between Siarum Communications, LLC, with its principal place of business at 2477 Valleydale Road, Birmingham, AL 35244, USA, (“PMG”, “Siarum”, Siaum Ring” or “PMG Technology Services”), and the individual and/or entity or agent (“User” or “you”) identified in the service application submitted during the enrollment registration process. These Terms, along with the Siarum Privacy Policy, hereby incorporated by reference into these Terms, are the general terms and conditions governing User’s use of the electronic communication, document generation, data collection, storage, and hosting services (collectively the “Service”) made available by Siarum through the Siarum web site currently published at www.teamlogicbhamvoip.com (“Site”), and/or made available in whole or in part through any embedded application or third party partner web site or web portal. These Terms of Service are posted and made available for review from the Siarum website. Siarum may make changes to these Terms, effective immediately upon posting, and continued use of the Service constitutes User’s acceptance of any such changes. In addition, when using particular Siarum services, User and Siarum shall be subject to any posted guidelines or rules applicable to such Services that may be posted from time to time.

READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY BEFORE SUBMITTING AN APPLICATION FOR REGISTRATION TO USE THE SERVICE. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE OR ANY PART THEREOF, YOUR ONLY REMEDY IS TO REFRAIN FROM USING THE SERVICE. BY USING THE SERVICE, YOU INDICATE YOUR ACKNOWLEDGEMENT THAT YOU HAVE READ AND ACCEPTED, WITHOUT QUALIFICATION OR LIMITATION, THESE TERMS.

  1. Registration

1.1 The Service requires a provisioned “Account” through which the Service may be accessed and used. In order to obtain a provisioned Account from Siarum, you must: (i) acknowledge that you have read and accepted these Terms of Service; (ii) provide a valid e-mail address to which you have right and permission to access and read e-mail communications; and (iii) provide any other information required by Siarum during the enrollment registration process.

1.2 You represent and warrant to Siarum that the information provided by you in the enrollment registration process is accurate and complete and that you will promptly update your Account and profile information during the term of this Service.

1.3 If you are registering on behalf of an entity, you represent and warrant to Siarum that you have full right, power, and authority to bind such entity as the User to these Terms, including, without limitation, the use of the Site, collection, storage, and use of hosted data.

1.4 You are responsible for maintaining the security of your Account and password necessary to access your Account. It is important that you prevent unauthorized access to your Account and information by using a unique, secure, and protected password and limiting access to your password and your device. You are encouraged to change your password periodically, which you may do by accessing the “My Password” screen under the “My Account” portion of the Service. Siarum cannot and will not be liable for any loss or damage from your failure to comply with this security obligation. You are solely responsible for any breaches of security affecting your network or the servers under your control. We will never e-mail you to ask for your password or other Account information. If you receive such an e-mail, do not reply with your Account information, and please forward the e-mail to us at legal@teamlogicbhamvoip.com. You should notify Siarum via e-mail at support@teamlogicbhamvoip.com immediately of any unauthorized use of your password or Account or other security breach affecting the Service.

1.5 You are responsible for all data, information, and content (collectively “Content”) you may post on the Site, or use in conjunction with this Service, including activity that occurs under your Account (even when Content is posted, provided, or submitted by others who have separate user login access under your Account). Personally identifiable information (“PII”) submitted by you shall be subject to the Siarum Privacy Policy published at the Siarum Site or otherwise furnished to the User and fully incorporated in these Terms by reference.

1.6 Sairum reserves the right to refuse registration of, or cancel immediately and without notice, accounts it deems inappropriate.

1.7 One person or entity may not maintain more than one free Siarum Service Account. Accounts registered by automated methods, agents or “bots” are not permitted and represent a violation of these Terms of Service.

     2. Use, Restrictions, and Responsibilities

2.1 User must use the Service at all times strictly in accordance with all policies, domestic and international laws and regulations, including without limitation those relating to the use of the Internet, electronic communications, anti-spam, privacy, obscenity, defamation and applicable export laws. Siarum reserves the right, but assumes no responsibility or obligation, to monitor your conduct and use of the Service. Siarum may, at its own discretion, take action to re-mediate any problems caused by violations (or alleged violations) of these Terms, including but not limited to, suspension of access (in part or in whole) to the Service and/or suspension or termination of the User’s Account.

2.2 You must comply with all domestic and international laws and regulations applicable to bulk or commercial e-mail with respect to your use of the Service. User represents and warrants to Siarum that it will use the Service in full compliance with the CAN-SPAM Act, including but not limited to:

2.2.1 User will not use false or misleading e-mail header information. The Siarum Service does not allow the manipulation of any e-mail header information by the User. The User agrees not to use e-mail relays or other agents in conjunction with the Service to deploy or send e-mail in any way that generates false or misleading e-mail header information.

2.2.2 User will not use deceptive subject lines. This means that any subject line attached to any e-mail sent in conjunction with use of the Service must clearly relate to the content of the e-mail. Siarum policy and federal law prohibit the use of deceptive or misleading subject lines.

2.2.3 User will use and apply the Opt-Out mechanism of the Service to any e-mail sent through the Siarum mail servers to provide a clear, easy to use, and fully functional unsubscribe method for the recipient of e-mail.

2.2.4 User will provide a valid physical postal address within the content of the message using the mechanism of the Service. The CAN-SPAM law requires that the “sender of the e-mail” (i.e. the person or company identified in the “From” label) to display a physical postal address within the content of the message. The Siarum Service provides this function automatically in the standard footer on all e-mail composed and sent through the Service. Siarum requires that ALL Users of the Service provide a valid and accurate postal address for this purpose.

2.3 In addition, you may not send any Unsolicited E-mail by use or means of the Service. “Unsolicited E-mail” is any electronic communication sent to persons other than: (i) persons with whom you have an existing business relationship; or (ii) persons who have consented to the receipt of such e-mail, including publishing or providing their e-mail address in a manner from which consent to receive e-mail of the type transmitted may be reasonably implied.

2.3.1 At Siarum’s request as needed to respond to an e-mail related complaint, you will promptly provide Siarum information you have available documenting the business relationship or consent of the complainant, and will otherwise reasonably cooperate with Siarum in responding to such complaints and mitigating the effect on the Service or Siarum’s (or its service provider’s) network.

2.3.2 You must have procedures in place to allow a Prospect, Lead, or Recipient of e-mail to easily revoke their consent to receiving e-mail, such as through an opt-out link in the body of the e-mail. The Siarum Service automatically provides such an opt-out link via its standard e-mail footer method. These policies apply to all electronic communications sent in conjunction with using the Service, including e-mail sent through Siarum’s servers and sent through Microsoft Outlook (or Lotus Notes) by use of the downloaded connector of the Service.

2.3.3 Siarum may, but is not required to, test or otherwise monitor your compliance with these requirements and may block the transmission of e-mail that violates these provisions.

2.4 In using the features of the Service, User may provide private information (such as name, contact information, or other registration information or PII) to Siarum.
