      5. We are entitled to terminate the Agreement for any reason set forth herein, in which case We will give You appropriate notice as soon as is reasonably possible.
  4. Freedom of Information

    1. We acknowledge that certain public entities are subject to public records disclosure requirements. If you are a public entity then We will assist and cooperate with You (at Your expense) to enable You to comply with any such requirements applicable to You.
    2. We will, at our sole discretion, and without liability determine whether any of the information requested by You is confidential, commercially sensitive and / or exempt from disclosure under the relevant disclosure laws or regulations.
  5. Confidentiality and Data Protection

    1. We will at all times keep confidential all information acquired as a consequence of the Agreement in respect of You or Your business, including any personal data of Your end-users who will be sent (or who will be sending) messages, voicemails, faxes and / or voice calls (as applicable), such as their mobile telephone numbers (such personal data referred hereto collectively as “End-User Data”), and any other payment and personal information provided by You to Us, except for information already in the public domain or information which We are required to disclose by law, requested by any Governmental Authority, reasonably required by Our professional advisors for the performance of their professional services, or reasonably required for Our performance of the Service and / or Free Service.
    2. For the avoidance of doubt, We will treat Your End-User Data as confidential and will not disclose it to any third party or use or copy any part of it except for the purposes of making the Service and / or the Free Service available to You and providing any technical support required, or to comply with legal obligations. We will make no further use of Your End-User Data without your specific authorization.
    3. You will at all times keep confidential all information acquired as a consequence of the Agreement in respect of Us, the Service, the Free Service or any Network Operator, except for information already in the public domain or information which You are required to disclose by law, requested by any Governmental Authority or reasonably required by Your professional advisors for the performance of their professional services.
  6. Customer and Non-Paying Customer Support

    1. Unless We otherwise agree in writing, We will provide on-line support in respect of the Service from 09:00 to 17:00 UK time, Monday to Friday (except for Bank Holidays in England and Wales), and outside such hours We will use reasonable efforts to provide support in respect of the Service and / or the Free Service.
  7. Customer Charges and Payment

    1. The provisions of this clause 7 only apply to Customers and do not apply to Non-Paying Customers.
    2. In respect of making the Service available to You and Your access to and use of the Service, each time any given Transaction is conducted You will incur a corresponding Charge (“Customer Charges”).
    3. You agree to pay all Customer Charges due to Us by the payment method and in accordance with the applicable payment plan and terms agreed between Us and detailed in the Signature Page. Unless We otherwise agree, payment by You of the Customer Charges:
      1. Will be due and payable 15 days after the date of invoice if You are paying by direct debit; or
      2. Will be due and payable 60 days after the date of invoice if You are on 60-day credit terms.
    4. Alternatively, you may wish to pre-purchase Transaction credits for each month of the Agreement or such other period as is agreed between You and Us, in which case We will allocate to You a corresponding number of Transaction credits for that period, 1 SMS message Transaction, for example, costing 1 corresponding unit Charge stated in terms of cents (subject to any variation thereof) and allowing You to send 1 SMS message using the Service. Each Transaction that You conduct using the Service will therefore reduce the value of the Transaction credits available to You by 1 corresponding unit Charge (subject to any variation thereof).
    5. Any pre-purchase Transaction credits purchased by You are subject to Our “use it or lose it” policy – i.e., they are only valid for the period in respect of which they have been allocated, such period not to exceed one year. This means that any pre-purchase Transaction credits purchased by You that You do not use before the end of the period to which they were allocated will be forfeited. This also means that, in any case, no pre-purchase Transaction credits may be used over one year after they were purchased.
    6. Any Transactions that You conduct in a period over and above Your allocation of pre-purchase Transaction credits for such period shall be additionally charged by Us at the applicable tariff rate set out in the Signature Page (subject to any variation thereof). Any such additional Customer Charges will be invoiced to You by Us at the end of the month in which they arise. You shall be solely responsible, by seeking adequate Transaction credit allocation(s) and checking Your remaining available Transaction credit level on Our website at www.esendex.us, for ensuring that You have enough Transaction credits to meet Your requirements from time to time and We shall not be in any way be responsible or liable in the event that You have insufficient Transaction credits to meet Your requirements, and / or have exceeded Your Transaction credit allocation(s), for any period.
    7. For the avoidance of doubt, a Charge will be incurred for every Transaction conducted by You regardless of whether the Transaction is successfully transmitted and / or received.
    8. If You do not pay any Customer Charges in accordance with the applicable payment terms, We reserve the right to, in Our sole discretion:
      1. Use any pre-payment or deposit that You have provided to Us as full or part payment of the outstanding sum;
      2. Suspend Your access to the Service and / or cease to allow any Transactions to be conducted by You until payment of the outstanding sum is received by Us in full and cleared funds from You; and / or
      3. Charge simple interest on the outstanding sum, calculated at the lesser of (i) the prime rate (as reported by the Bank of America, or its successor, on the date such payment is due) plus an additional two percent (2%), or (ii) the maximum rate permitted by law, in each case running from the due date for payment until receipt by Us of the outstanding sum in full and cleared funds whether or not after judgment and without prejudice to any of Our other rights or remedies.
  8. Marketing

    1. Either party may make use of the other party's name and visual identity for publicity and marketing purposes, without prior consent.  Should this be unacceptable to either party, the withdrawal of consent must be communicated in writing.  Without limitation to the foregoing, no press release and / or any blog entry may be made by either party regarding this Agreement, without the prior consent of the other party.

      2. Use the Service and / or the Free Service or permit the Service and / or the Free Service to be used to convey messages, voicemails, faxes and / or voice calls (as applicable) to any end-user, the frequency and number of which is excessive in Our reasonable opinion;

    9. You warrant that You are the sole owner or licensor or all rights in Your End-User Data or You have obtained all necessary rights, licences and consents from all relevant third parties to enable You, Us and Our subcontractors to use the End-User Data for the purposes of the Agreement.
