License Grant: Company hereby grants to Customer, subject to the terms, conditions, restrictions and limitations set forth in this EULA, a worldwide, non-exclusive, revocable, non-transferable license to use those portions of the Software referred to Ytel Contact Center, Ytel API, and/or any other software product, whether or not specifically named, previously referred to and known as “Cloud Contact Center,” “message360,” and “Campaign”, as described below, and present and future applications, including derivative products and features produced therefrom. This does not include the Voice application wholesale platform which is covered under the contracted and signed EULA/MSA for that system. The features associated with each of these Software offerings are as described below:
Ytel Contact Center – is a cloud based contact center software application that enables Customer to accept inbound and make outbound telephone calls. The Ytel Contact Center software has the ability to route inbound calls based on time, destination and source. Outbound calls can be made manually, or in an automated fashion, using the Ytel Contact Center software. The Ytel Contact Center Software enables Customer to generate reports on how many calls are made, both inbound and outbound, together with certain performance metrics of agents using the Ytel Contact Center software.
Ytel API – is a programming language, combined with a user portal, that enables Customer to design business communication messages. These messages can be communicated via telephone calls, SMS text messages, chats, tweets, e-mail and direct mail. Where Customer is utilizing Ytel API, its employees and agents can: (a) choose a series of options and be routed to internal or external destinations; and/or (b) speak or input DTMF digit tones to identify themselves or pass relevant information to Customer. The IVR system associated with Ytel API can be connected to Customer’s systems to further enhance its communications options. Examples include processing inbound calls and routing them to a destination based on customer input or sending pre-recorded telephone messages to many recipients. Ytel API also includes applications built on top of it such as LeadBeam, Sippro, and other applications that reside or otherwise use Ytel API engine as its base.
Inbox - is a feature where users can view and respond to inbound messages - currently SMS (text message) and Facebook messenger. There is no coding required to implement Inbox; simply turn on functionality and start communicating.

This Acceptable Use Policy (“AUP” or “Policy”) describes the actions that are prohibited and conduct that is expected when you, or any party acting on your behalf, use Ytel, Inc.’s (“Ytel”) Services (“Services”). This AUP is designed to complement – not replace – any agreement between us that governs your use of Ytel’s Services, such as the Ytel Master Services Agreement, the Ytel End User License Agreement (“EULA”), or any other agreement between you and Ytel. This Policy is designed to help you understand some of our expectations for responsible and legal use of the Services. If you do not agree to this Policy, do not use the Services.
The Services may not be used in any manner that: (i) is illegal; (ii) is non-compliant with accepted industry best practices or applicable guidelines, (iii) disrupts or damages any of Ytel’s computer systems or network or other parties’ computer systems and networks, or (iv) violates any person’s rights.
Ytel in its sole discretion shall determine whether there has been a violation of this Policy. Ytel may amend this Policy from time to time.
The following list provides examples of prohibited uses and is not meant to be comprehensive, and you are ultimately responsible for the messages that you initiate through the Services.
You agree that your use of the Ytel Services will only be for lawful purposes, and will not include:
Initiating any message through the Services to an individual who has not consented or otherwise opted-in to the receipt of such message as required by any applicable law or regulation.
Engaging in any messaging that is offensive, obscene, libelous, defamatory, fraudulent, abusive, or contains tortious material.
Engaging in messaging that is unsuitable for minors.
Engaging in messaging that promotes, incites or instructs on criminal matters.
Engaging in messaging that is false, misleading or deceptive, or likely to mislead or deceive.
Engaging in messaging that infringes the intellectual property rights or other rights of a third party, including trademarks, copyrights or other rights of publicity.
Using the Services to receive, transmit or otherwise maintain electronic Protected Health Information, as defined by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, as amended, or use the Services in any manner that would make Ytel your or any third party’s business associate.
Using the Services in any manner that violates: applicable industry standards; any third party policies including all of the applicable guidelines published by the CTIA, or any other accepted industry associations, carrier guidelines (or any similar or analogous industry standards, third party policies or requirements in any other jurisdiction); or additional requirements that Ytel may communicate to you.
Transmitting any material that contains viruses, trojan horses, worms, time bombs, cancel-bots or any other harmful/deleterious programs.
Reverse-engineering the Services in order to find limitations, vulnerabilities, or evade monitoring capabilities.
Attempting to gain unauthorized access to the Services, other accounts, computer systems or networks connected to the Services, through password mining or any other means.
Engaging in messaging that is otherwise unlawful or could expose Ytel or any third party to liability, damages, or danger.
Customer shall not utilize any of the Company technology to initiate or transmit outbound, pre-recorded, voice messages
In addition, you will honor immediately any requests to opt-out or stop further messaging (e.g., any “STOP” messages), and desist from initiating any further message following receipt of any such opt-out or stop request. You should also schedule the timing of your messages responsibly and adhere to any calling time restrictions that may be applicable to your messages.
Further, the Federal Communications Commission requires that voice service providers such as Ytel cooperate with industry and governmental investigations to identify potential sources of illegal calls, and to otherwise take steps to combat the origination of illegal traffic by customers. Accordingly, you agree to promptly cooperate with any such investigation and provide Ytel any information we may request regarding your use of Ytel’s Services, the legality of your communications, and/or your compliance with this AUP. You further acknowledge and agree that any communications, expressly including the content of your communications, that you send or receive over Ytel’s network are not confidential and are subject to fraud and spam monitoring by Ytel, and potentially other service providers in the communications ecosystem. For the avoidance of doubt, by using Ytel’s Services, you consent to the foregoing practices and Ytel’s right to disclose any relevant information regarding your usage of Ytel’s Services to third parties.
Violation of this AUP may result in termination or suspension of all Services provided by Ytel and may also result in civil, criminal, or administrative liability or penalties against you. Remember, you are ultimately responsible to make your own informed decisions regarding your use of the Services and you remain fully liable for any use of the Services in violation of any applicable law, as well as this Acceptable Use Policy and any operative agreement(s) between us.
Any failure to enforce this Policy does not amount to a waiver of Ytel’s rights.

OTHER THAN FOR INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS ARISING HEREUNDER, NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY, ANY OF ITS CUSTOMERS OR ANY OTHER PERSON, FIRM OR ENTITY FOR DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, ACTUAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOST PROFITS OF ANY KIND OR NATURE WHATSOEVER, UNDER ANY LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY, EVEN IF FORESEEABLE, ARISING OUT OF ANY MISTAKE, ACCIDENT, ERROR, OMISSION, INTERRUPTION, OR DEFECT IN TRANSMISSION, OR DELAY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES OR THE OBLIGATIONS OF EACH PARTY PURSUANT TO THE AGREEMENT INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY FAILURE TO PROVIDE TIMELY, ACCURATE PROVISION, OR INSTALLATION OF ANY PORTION OF THE SERVICES, OR CONDITIONS WHICH MAY RESULT FROM ACTIONS OF REGULATORY OR JUDICIAL AUTHORITIES.
EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS MSA, THERE ARE NO OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED HEREUNDER. THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. USE OF THE SERVICES IS AT CUSTOMER’S OWN RISK. COMPANY DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL MEET CUSTOMER’S REQUIREMENTS OR THAT OPERATION OF THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR FREE, SECURE, ACCURATE, COMPLETE OR CURRENT. WITHOUT LIMITATION, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY LAW, THIS DISCLAIMER EXTENDS TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABLE QUALITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, WARRANTIES ARISING BY STATUTE OR OTHERWISE IN LAW AND/OR FROM A COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE. COMPANY’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE OBLIGATION, AND CUSTOMER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY, FOR ANY BUG, ERROR OR OTHER FAILURE OF THE SERVICES TO PERFORM AS SET FORTH IN THE AGREEMENT IS A CREDIT OR REFUND, AT COMPANY’S SOLE DISCRETION, BASED ON THE ORIGINAL CHARGE FOR THE APPLICABLE SERVICES.
The Agreement is made expressly subject to all present and future valid orders and regulations of any regulatory body having jurisdiction of the subject matter of the Agreement and to the laws of the United States of America, any of its states, or any foreign governmental agency having jurisdiction. If any terms of the Agreement are found in conflict with any law, the Agreement shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to make it comply with the law in such a way as is consistent with the intent and purpose of the Agreement.
Neither Party is authorized to act as an agent for, nor legal representative of, the other Party. Neither Party has the authority to assume nor create any obligation on behalf of or binding on the other Party.
Other than for payment obligations arising hereunder, if either Party’s performance under the Agreement is restricted or interfered with, in whole or part, by causes beyond its reasonable control including, but not limited to, acts of God, fire, explosion, vandalism, cable cut, utility curtailments, power failures, storm or other similar occurrence, any law, order, regulation, tariffs or rates which make it impossible or impractical for it or its service providers to provide its services at the current rates, request of the United States government, or of any agency, court, or other instrumentality or civil or military authority, or by national emergency, insurrection, riot, war, strike, lockout or work stoppage or other labor difficulties, supplier failure or shortage or breach or delay (“Force Majeure Event”), then such Party shall be excused from its performance on a day-to-day basis to the extent of the subject Force Majeure Event. Company’s obligation to provide Services is subject to and contingent on the continuation of Company’s agreements with its underlying service providers to provide the applicable services to Company at the current rates and on the same conditions under which such service providers are currently providing or offering to provide the applicable services to Company. Any changes in or termination to those agreements will relieve Company of its obligations and all liability under the Agreement.
The failure of either Party to enforce or insist upon compliance with any of the terms of the Agreement or the waiver of any terms contained within the Agreement does not constitute a general waiver or relinquishment of any other terms of the Agreement.
The Agreement is binding upon, and inures to the benefit of, the Parties and their respective successors and assigns. Customer will not assign, transfer, license or otherwise transfer all or any part of its rights, duties or other interests in or to the Agreement or the proceeds from the Agreement ("Assignment") without Company’s prior written consent. Company may make an Assignment without Customer’s consent at any time during the term of the Agreement. Any attempt to make an Assignment in violation of this provision shall be null and void. Customer shall provide written notice to Company of any material change in its ownership (which is defined as a change in ownership affecting majority voting control of at least 50.1%). No Assignment will release either Party from its obligations arising under the Agreement.
This MSA, the EULA and/or the Order Form(s) may only be amended by an instrument in writing, signed by both Parties, except in the case of rate or fee change notifications which do not require Customer’s signature to be effective. The fees for Services may be modified WITH twenty-four (24) hour’s e-mail notice to Customer. In the event of any dispute about the rates set forth in the Order Form and any amendments thereto, the rates quoted on the most recently dated amendment shall prevail.
This MSA, together with the EULA, Order Form(s) (if any) and any amendments/attachments hereto/thereto, supersedes and merges all prior agreements, promises, understandings, statements, representations, warranties and covenants and all inducements to the making of the Agreement relied on by either Party to the Agreement, whether written or oral, and embodies the Parties' complete and entire agreement with respect to the subject matter of the Agreement. No statement or agreement, oral or written, made before the assent to this Agreement will vary or modify the written terms of the Agreement.
The Agreement is made solely for the benefit of Company and Customer, and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Nothing in the Agreement should be interpreted to mean that Company and Customer are partners, joint venturers, co-owners or are otherwise participants in a common undertaking. Neither Party nor its employees are given authority, express or implied, to represent, act for or otherwise create or assume any obligation on behalf of, or binding on, the other Party. Nothing in the Agreement will confer any rights or remedies on any third party.
If any terms of the Agreement are determined to be illegal, unenforceable or invalid, in whole or in part, for any reason, the terms shall be stricken and will not affect the legality, enforceability or validity of the remainder of the Agreement. If any terms of the Agreement are stricken as a result of this Section 18, then the stricken provision(s) shall be deemed replaced, to the extent possible, with legal, enforceable, and valid terms that are as similar in tenor to the stricken provision(s) as is legally permissible. All headings and titles contained in the Agreement are used solely to organize the contents of the Agreement and will not be used to affect the interpretation of the contents of the Agreement.
