("CyberLynk") and you on behalf of yourself and any entity that you represent ("You"), as the user of CyberLynk's voice and advanced communications services, collaboration services, and any associated software and hardware or web-accessible portals, include the Hosting Services (the "CyberLynk Managed Phone Service"). This TOS governs Your use of the Hosting Services provided by CyberLynk.
There are important 911 terms related to Your VoIP services, please review the entire TOS. By activating the Hosting Services, You acknowledge that You have read, understood and agree to these terms and conditions.
If You are uncomfortable with the limitations of the CyberLynk 911 service, You should consider using an alternative means of access to traditional 911 or E911 services or discontinuing the Hosting Services.
By subscribing to or using CyberLynk Services, including those services, features or functionality provided by means of mobile applications, or by downloading installing, or using any associated software or hardware, You agree to these TOS. If You do not wish to accept these TOS, do not subscribe to or use any CyberLynk Services or associated software or hardware.
When You accept these TOS by signing up for, subscribing to, downloading and installing any CyberLynk software or using the CyberLynk Hosting Services, You represent and warrant that: (i) You possesses the legal right and capacity to enter into the agreement with CyberLynk and to perform all of Your obligations thereunder;
(ii) You are of legal age to enter into this Agreement; (iii) You have full power and authority to execute and deliver any agreement documents and to perform all of Your obligations thereunder; (v) if You accept on behalf of an organization, You're telling us that You are authorized to bind that organization, and references to You in these TOS expressly includes without limitation the entity You represent; and (iv) You shall be bound by the agreement.
Any capitalized terms set forth below not otherwise defined have the meanings set forth in Section 25 ("Definitions") below.
CyberLynk provides access to emergency calling services, allowing most CyberLynk Managed Phone Service users to access either basic 911 or Enhanced 911 (E911) service. Your access may differ depending on Your location or the device You are using, and emergency calling services work differently than You may have experienced using traditional wireline or wireless telephones. It is strongly recommended that You have an alternative means for placing emergency calls available at all times.
CyberLynk Managed Phone Service users using IP Desk Phones or 911-Enabled Softphones can dial 911 directly from their IP Desk Phones or 911-Enabled Softphone. EMERGENCY CALLS CANNOT BE PLACED THROUGH SOFTPHONES THAT ARE NOT 911-ENABLED.
When a CyberLynk Managed Phone Service user dials 911 on an IP Desk Phone or 911-Enabled Softphone, the CyberLynk phone number and the Registered Address You have provided is sent to the local emergency center serving Your location. In some areas, emergency operators have access to this information; however, in areas where only basic 911 service is available, the emergency operator answering the call may not be able to see Your CyberLynk telephone number or Your Registered Address. You should always be prepared to provide the emergency operator with Your CyberLynk telephone number and Registered Address in case the call is dropped or disconnected. If You are unable to speak, the emergency operator may not be able to send help to Your location and/or call You back should the call be disconnected. CyberLynk does not control whether or not the emergency operator receives Your telephone number and Registered Address.
Emergency dialing with Your Managed Phone Service works differently than emergency dialing over traditional phone service. In some cases, 911 calls dialed from Your CyberLynk Managed Phone Service device cannot be directed to the local emergency response center, and are instead directed to a National Emergency Call Center (the "NECC"). That might happen if there is a problem validating a Registered Address, if the Registered Address is an international location, or if the Registered Address is in an area that is not covered by the landline 911 network. 911 calls that are directed to the NECC may not include Your CyberLynk telephone number or Your registered address. Trained operators at the NECC will request Your name, location, and telephone number and attempt to reach emergency responders in Your local area. Until You give the operator Your phone number, and location, he/she may not be able to call You back or dispatch help to Your location if the call is dropped or disconnected.
CyberLynk 911 service will not function in the event of an Internet or power outage, if You do not have cellular service (on the CyberLynk Mobile Application), or if Your broadband, ISP, or CyberLynk Managed Phone Service is terminated. The CyberLynk Mobile Application cannot send emergency calls over Wi-Fi access. It is possible that network congestion may delay or prevent completion of a 911 call. CyberLynk 911 service may not be available if You are dialing from a CyberLynk number that is not a Canadian or United States number.
You agree to register with CyberLynk immediately upon activation of Your Account the address of the physical location where You will use the CyberLynk Managed Phone Service, including each IP Desk Phone and each 911-Enabled Softphone. This is Your Registered Address. You agree that You will accurately register each individual line through the Account Admin Portal or the Customer Portal for the applicable End User. If You or Your End Users move a registered device, You agree to immediately update the Registered Address with the new physical location of the device with CyberLynk through the Admin Portal or in Your account settings. You acknowledge that if You do not update the Registered Address, any 911 calls made from the device may be sent to the wrong emergency response center and will not transmit Your current location information to emergency responders, delaying emergency assistance to You. It may take up to several hours for the address update to take effect. Customers with more than one line or extension are solely responsible for ensuring that an accurate and up-to-date Registered Address is maintained for each IP Desk Phone and each 911-Enabled Softphone, and that their End Users are aware of how the Registered Address can be changed.
You agree to notify any employees, contractors, guests, or persons who may place calls using the Managed Phone Services or may be present at the physical location where the Managed Phone Services may be used, of the limitations of CyberLynk 911 Service from Your CyberLynk Managed Phone Service IP phone, other equipment or the CyberLynk Softphone. You agree to affix a CyberLynk-provided sticker warning that 911 services may be limited or unavailable in a readily visible place on each piece of equipment that might be used to access or use the Managed Phone Services. You and Your End Users should always have an alternative means for placing 911 calls.
You acknowledge and agree that Your use, and use by Your employees and/or guests or other third parties, of CyberLynk's 911 Services and Text-to-911 Services are subject to the limitations described herein.
The availability of certain features, such as transmission of a Registered Address or Your CyberLynk telephone number, depends on whether local emergency response centers support those features, and are factors outside of CyberLynk's control. CyberLynk relies on third parties to assist us in routing 911 calls to local emergency response centers and to the NECC. CyberLynk does not have control over local emergency response centers, the NECC, emergency responders, or other third parties. CyberLynk disclaims all responsibility for the conduct of local emergency response centers, the NECC and all other third parties involved in the provision of emergency response services. Accordingly, to the extent permitted by applicable Law , You hereby release, discharge, and hold harmless CyberLynk from and against any and all liability relating to or arising from any acts or omissions of such third parties or other third parties involved in the handling of or response to any emergency or 911 call. You agree to indemnify and hold harmless CyberLynk, and any third-party provider(s) from any and all third party claims, losses, damages, fines, or penalties arising out of: (i) Your provision to CyberLynk of incorrect information, including physical addresses, or Your failure to update Your Registered Address; (ii) Your failure to properly notify any person who may place calls using the Managed Phone Services of the 911 limitations; or (iii) the absence, failure, or outage of emergency service dialing using the Managed Phone Services for any reason; and (iv) the inability of any user of the Managed Phone Services to be able to dial 911 or access emergency service personnel for any reason.

A breach of obligations in this Section constitutes a material breach of these TOS or Your Managed Phone Service Agreement, as applicable, such that CyberLynk may suspend service, terminate the Agreement immediately, or take any other action CyberLynk deems necessary to enforce the terms of this Section.
Please note that all prices, Taxes , surcharges, and fees are subject to change at any time. You are responsible for paying all charges for Your Account, including but not limited to toll -free, local, long distance, international minutes, additional feature charges, 411 and operator assisted charges, and directory assistance charges, and for all Taxes, surcharges, and fees imposed on You or us as a result of Your use of the Hosting Service. Customers with a past due balance on previous or multiple accounts will be charged the full balance upon opening a new account or updating their credit card information on file. CyberLynk also reserves the right to charge termination and transfer fees consistent with the terms and conditions and as provided in these TOS.
CyberLynk offers several different plan options for Hosting Service. You may change Your Hosting Service plan at any time; however, a one-time processing fee of ten dollars ($10) may apply when downgrading an existing plan to a plan with lower monthly fees (e.g., a plan with fewer minutes and/or features). In addition, certain plans may entitle You to receive discounts on equipment used in connection with CyberLynk Hosting Service. If You receive any equipment discounts associated with a Hosting Service plan and subsequently change that plan to one that does not offer those equipment discounts, You agree to reimburse CyberLynk, and hereby authorize CyberLynk to charge Your credit card on file, or invoice You, as applicable, for such equipment discounts.
You acknowledge and agree that the products or services, including without limitation the Hosting Services, may not be available one hundred percent (100%) of the time. Credit allowances for interruption of the Hosting Services may only be provided on a case-by-case basis at the sole discretion of CyberLynk and shall be Your sole remedy for any Hosting Services interruptions or other issues with the Hosting Services.
CyberLynk offers several different plans for its products and services. Some of the plans provide for a fixed number of monthly usage minutes ("Plan Credits"). If You exceed Your monthly Plan Credits during the course of a Service month, You may purchase additional Plan Credits as needed. CyberLynk may also provide You certain bonus credit minutes and/or other promotional incentives (e.g., tell-a-friend credits) upon fulfillment of the applicable promotion requirements. All of the Plan Credits are quoted in terms of domestic minute usage, and may be referred to on the CyberLynk website or by a CyberLynk Customer service representative as minutes . As explained below, international calling may be charged at a different rate than domestic calling, and a Plan Credit minute therefore will not entitle You to a minute of international calling ("International Minutes").
CyberLynk offers several monthly metered plans for some of its products and services. Each metered calling plan provides You with a toll-free or local telephone number and a fixed number of Plan Credits each month for a monthly fee, excluding Taxes, surcharges, and fees. When You exhaust Your initial paid allotment of Plan Credits for Your metered plan, unless You advise CyberLynk otherwise in writing, CyberLynk will automatically bill Your Account for the smallest available bundle of Plan Credits for the applicable service. Additional minute usage will be debited at the applicable per minute rate(s) for Your metered plan. However, in some limited instances, calls placed under a metered plan may not be counted against Your monthly allotment (e.g., calls made via a local phone number to leave or check voicemail or configure a system and calls answered on the CyberLynk Softphone). Please check the details of Your metered plan to determine which calls (if any) are not counted against Your monthly minute allotment. For international calling, international rates will apply.
CyberLynk offers unlimited monthly plans for some of its products and services. An unlimited plan provides You with a local or toll-free telephone number and is subject to the terms and restrictions of these TOS. If, for any reason, CyberLynk believes that Your usage of the unlimited plan and services violates these TOS, then CyberLynk may, in its sole discretion with or without notice, either terminate Your unlimited plan or immediately convert Your unlimited plan to a metered plan, as set forth above.
In no event shall any Toll-Free Minute , International Minute Credit, Billing Credit, Plan Credit, or any other type of credit or minute issued to You or applied to an Account have any monetary value or be exchangeable or exchanged for cash. Account Credits may be applied to only the Account for which they were purchased and/or provided, and may not be sold, transferred, assigned, or applied to any other Account, account, plan, or customer. Credited Toll-Free Minutes not applied to Usage of the applicable Account during the monthly billing cycle for which they are credited shall expire at the end of such cycle and shall in no event be available for application to Usage occurring during (or roll over to) any other period. Other Account Credits shall expire according to the terms of their purchase or provision.
From time to time in its sole discretion, CyberLynk may offer promotions or discounts. Any promotion or discount codes must be provided to CyberLynk upon purchase of the Hosting Services. You are not entitled to a subsequent credit for any promotions or discounts if You do not request the promotion or discount credit at the time of Account creation or change of service. Promotions and/or discounts may not be used cumulatively or retroactively.
The initial order sets forth the base recurring fees for the Hosting Services and the number of minutes of inbound Usage of any toll-free number(s) assigned to an Account, if any, that are included in the Hosting Services Fees for each monthly billing cycle. Any applicable initiation charges, Usage, monthly recurring charges, support charges, Taxes, and other fees are billed in full in advance. Termination, international minutes, equipment return fees and transfer charges, if any, are billed in arrears. Upon termination of Your Account for any reason, all unused Plan Credits and unused International Minutes shall expire in their entirety on the termination date. No refund, transfer or proration shall be made of any unused Plan Credits, Promotional Credits, or International Minutes or any other credits to Your Account.
All fees for Services advertised or otherwise listed on the CyberLynk website are exclusive of any Taxes. You agree to pay all Taxes and similar liabilities that may now or hereafter be levied on the Hosting Services and related software or hardware by any federal, state, local, or international law or regulation, as well as any administrative and recovery fees and charges levied on the Hosting Services by CyberLynk, whether or not mandated by law or regulation. Should CyberLynk pay or be required to pay such liabilities (including any Taxes that were due but not charged or previously collected), You agree that CyberLynk may charge Your credit card on file or invoice You, as applicable, for such payments upon receipt of an invoice and showing of indebtedness to CyberLynk.
In the event that any purchase, transaction, or event involving or resulting in an annually-incurred Hosting Services Amount occurs subsequent to the beginning of an annual billing cycle, CyberLynk may at that time bill You a pro-rated amount for the remainder of the then-current cycle and thereafter bill You conterminously with each subsequent cycle.
You agree and acknowledge that time is of the essence for payment of all fees and charges. Any fees or charges not paid when due shall incur interest at a rate of the lesser of: (i) eighteen percent (18%) per annum; or (ii) the highest rate allowed by Law. CyberLynk's acceptance of late or partial payments (regardless of how they are marked or designated (including without limitation as Paid in Full, Accord and Satisfaction, or similarly)) shall not waive, limit, or prejudice in any way CyberLynk's rights to collect any amount due. CyberLynk may terminate the Hosting Services these TOS for non-payment if any fees or charges are not paid within thirty (30) days of the due date.
All fees and charges are payable to CyberLynk by credit or debit card. You agree to be liable for a processing fee in the amount of the lesser of: (i) fifty dollars ($50.00); or (ii) the highest amount allowed by Law for any credit card chargeback or check or other payment returned for nonpayment.
When You subscribe to Hosting Services, You will provide us with a payment method, such as a valid credit card or information for invoicing (if You are pre-approved by CyberLynk in its sole discretion to be billed via invoice), and, if applicable, authorize us to collect from the payment method provided. Any authorization to charge a provided credit card will remain valid until thirty (30) days after You withdraw the authorization, or immediately upon provision of a replacement valid credit card. Upon termination of this Agreement, we will charge You any fees and any other outstanding charges and disconnect Your service. You agree to advise and notify us of any changes to Your payment method, such as credit card account number or expiration date changes. If the credit card or other payment method on Your Account is declined or fails for any reason, CyberLynk will use reasonable efforts to contact You and advise You of the failed billing attempts.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, CyberLynk reserves the right to disconnect Your Service and terminate Your Account if Your payment method is declined or fails for any reason, or if You withdraw authorization to charge a valid credit and do not provide an alternative payment method, and CyberLynk reserves the right to continue to attempt charging Your credit card for any outstanding Service charges and additional fees and pursue any other legal remedies available to CyberLynk.
You will waive the right to dispute any billed amount if You do not dispute such amount within thirty (30) days of the date of its billing. In the event that You timely dispute a billed amount and CyberLynk confirms that You were over-billed, CyberLynk shall credit the applicable Account in the amount of the over-billing ("Billing Credits"). Billing Credits shall be CyberLynk's sole and exclusive obligation and Your sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any erroneous billing.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if You request that Your bank or credit card company perform a chargeback or decline to process a check without first contacting CyberLynk to dispute the charge, and CyberLynk subsequently determines that the charges at issue are not erroneous, CyberLynk reserves the right to terminate Your Account immediately and take any available legal action.
You are solely liable for any transactions or usage on Your Account, whether by You, any End User, or any other user of Your Hosting Services, and in no event shall CyberLynk be liable for any unauthorized use of Your Account.
This Rental Agreement is for the rental of certain telephone hardware (each a "Rental Device") from CyberLynk (collectively, the "Rental Services"). CyberLynk charges a recurring monthly fee for each Rental Device (collectively, the "Rental Fees"). As a part of your recurring bill from CyberLynk, you agree to pay the Rental Fees for all Rental Devices, using the same payment method and payment period as your payments for CyberLynk Managed Phone Services, as defined in your CyberLynk Managed Phone Service Plan Purchase Agreement. CyberLynk will pro-rate the Rental Fees for any equipment that is rented, for the initial period from the start of the rental period until the end of then-current billing period for the Managed Phone Services, and the start of the rental will begin on the date a Rental Device is recorded as delivered by a designated courier (the "Rental Start Date").
The Rental Services with respect to a Rental Device shall commence on the Rental Start Date and terminate upon the earliest to occur of (a) either Party delivers written notice of termination of this Agreement to the other Party at least thirty (30) days prior to the applicable termination date (with such termination date being at the end of the Managed Phone Services billing period in which the end of such 30 day period occurs, (b) the termination of the CyberLynk Managed Phone Service Plan Purchase Agreement. Notwithstanding the above, at any time within thirty (30) days after the Rental Start Date, you may terminate the Rental Services with respect to a Rental Device immediately upon written notice from you to CyberLynk, without paying any Rental Fees for such Rental Device.
Upon any termination of the Rental Agreement or Rental Services, you agree to return or purchase a Rental Device (including all accessories and materials that were provided with the primary hardware device) consistent with CyberLynk's written instructions and in accordance with the Return or Purchase Rights section of this Rental Agreement, and that Rental Device will no longer be considered a Rental Device upon the completion of a return or purchase. If you do not return a Rental Device (subject to CyberLynk's inspection and acceptance of the returned Rental Device in its reasonable discretion) within five business days following the termination of the Rental Services for such Rental Device, you will be deemed to have purchased that device at a purchase price equal to (1) during the first 12 months after you received the Rental Device, 100% of the Rental Device's then-current CyberLynk list price shown on CyberLynk's web site, or (2) after such 12 month period, 80% of such list price, and you agree to pay the applicable purchase price.
If you wish to upgrade a Rental Device, the replacement of the current Rental Device shall be deemed a termination of the Rental Services with respect to the current Rental Device and be subject to the termination provisions hereof, including the return or purchase provisions for the Rental Device set forth in the Return or Purchase Rights section of this Rental Agreement; provided that the Rental Services for the current Rental Device shall be deemed to terminate, and the Rental Services of the replacement Rental Device shall commence, on the date the replacement Rental Device is recorded as delivered by a designated courier.
The Rental Fees for the Rental Services do not include additional services you may select, taxes, fees, international usage, and other additional services. Sales tax varies by jurisdiction of purchase or rental and may be calculated based on full retail price or CyberLynk cost price, as determined by the tax law in the jurisdiction of purchase or rental.
CyberLynk is and will remain the owner of each Rental Device unless title is conveyed to you in writing following CyberLynk's confirmation to you of its receipt of your payment in full of the purchase price for the Rental Device. You will not grant any third party any right to use, possess, or control any Rental Device, sublease any Rental Device, attempt to dispose of any Rental Device, grant any interest or right in a Rental Device to any third party, or otherwise do anything that undermines CyberLynk's ownership of each Rental Device. CyberLynk may, without notifying you, assign CyberLynk's interest in any Rental Device, and in that event, CyberLynk's assignee will have all of CyberLynk's rights in the Rental Device under this Agreement, but none of CyberLynk's obligations. You agree not to assert against CyberLynk's assignee any claims, offsets, or defenses you may have against CyberLynk. Upon CyberLynk's request, you will execute and deliver to CyberLynk any documents or forms for protecting CyberLynk's ownership and interest in each Rental Device, including finance statements under the Uniform Commercial Code.
Upon receipt of each Rental Device, you will examine each Rental Device, and unless you notify CyberLynk within five business days of your receipt of a Rental Device to any issue with a Rental Device, each Rental Device is deemed to be in good working order at the time of receipt. In the event that any Rental Device delivered to you is stolen, lost, damaged, or transferred to any third party, regardless of the circumstances or cause, you will immediately notify CyberLynk in writing and pay CyberLynk a purchase price equal to (1) during the first 12 months after you received the Rental Device, 100% of the Rental Device's then-current CyberLynk list price shown on CyberLynk's web site, or (2) after such 12 month period, 80% of such list price. This obligation does not apply to any damage to a Rental Device that is covered by the manufacturer's warranty.
You will ensure that: (a) each Rental Device will only be used in a careful and proper manner and in accordance with the written instructions provided with it by CyberLynk, as may be updated by CyberLynk or the manufacturer of the Rental Device from time to time; (b) each Rental Device will be used with due care and will not be defaced, modified, or used or operated in any manner or for any purpose in violation of any federal, state, or local law or regulation; (c) each Rental Device must remain within the United States and may not be exported or re-exported to any country contrary to U.S. export laws; (d) any regulatory or certification markers affixed to a Rental Device may not be removed, defaced, or otherwise obstructed; and (e) each Rental Device will only be repaired subject to CyberLynk's express written authorization and in accordance with CyberLynk's instructions and requirements.
When you return a Rental Device, you agree to return a fully functional and non-damaged Rental Device to CyberLynk, at your risk and cost, and you agree that, to the extent that you do not do so, you will be obligated to pay CyberLynk a thirty-five dollar ($35.00) re-stocking fee. You agree to pay all shipping and handling charges related to any Rental Device and related hardware returns.
All Rental Devices and related hardware must be fully functional, include all components, manuals, peripheral devices, and all other accessories that were originally shipped with the Rental Device. At our discretion, we may decline your return or charge you an additional fee of thirty dollars ($30) for each missing item or for each item that we determine is damaged or not in good working condition.
If you are obligated to return or purchase a Rental Device subject to this Return or Purchase Rights section of this Rental Agreement, and you have not returned a Rental Device or you have defaulted in any obligation to pay the purchase price due for a Rental Device to be purchased, CyberLynk may, in addition to those remedies available at law, in equity, or as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, take possession of any or all Rental Devices without demand, notice, or legal process, wherever each Rental Device may be located, and you hereby waive any and all damages occasioned by that taking of possession.

Either party may assign these TOS and any of its rights and obligations hereunder with the other party's prior written consent (which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), except that CyberLynk may, without notice, assign the TOS and all of CyberLynk's rights and obligations hereunder to: (i) an affiliate; or (ii) CyberLynk's successor or surviving entity in connection with a merger, acquisition, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of its assets, or the transfer or disposition of more than fifty percent (50%) of a CyberLynk's voting control or assets. Any purported transfer or assignment in violation of this section is void. Subject to the foregoing, these TOS shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors, permitted assigns, and legal representatives.
If any provision or portion of the Agreement is determined to be invalid, unlawful, illegal, void, or unenforceable, in whole or in part, then (i) that provision or portion shall be construed in such a manner as to render the provision or portion enforceable and, to the extent possible, to reflect the Parties' original intent and (ii) the remaining provisions and portions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
The following provisions of these TOS will survive termination or expiration of these TOS for the maximum term allowed by Law: (i) Your payment obligations; (ii) terms relating to intellectual property ownership, customer representations, confidentiality, storage of user information, publicity rights, non-disparagement, indemnification, warranty disclaimers, limitations of liability, dispute resolution and arbitration, and choice of law; and (iii) all provisions that are intended by their nature to survive termination of this agreement.
We may change the terms of these TOS from time to time upon delivery of electronic or written notices to You. CyberLynk generally provides written notice of changes to Your account, including these TOS and any other legal agreements, via email, electronic notice on the CyberLynk Website or Your Account Page, or on Your billing statements, or as otherwise required by applicable Law. You agree to carefully read and review each such e-mail notice, electronic notice, and billing statement from CyberLynk fully regarding any such notices of changes to Your Account.
Subject to applicable Law, the modified terms shall replace and supersede all previously agreed to electronic and written terms, as well as any prior versions of these TOS and become binding on You on the later of the date they are posted on this website or as otherwise indicated in the notice to You. You agree that You are solely responsible for: (i) making sure that Your registered email account is current and functional: (ii) checking Your registered email account regularly; (iii) checking the CyberLynk Website and Your Account page regularly; and (iv) making sure that CyberLynk communications are not blocked or rendered undeliverable by You, Your computer, any software installed on Your computer, Your Internet service provider, or for any other reason. Continued use of the Hosting Services will constitute Your acceptance of the modified terms. If the terms of these TOS are amended and You do not wish to accept the modified terms, You may terminate these TOS as provided for in Section 20 entitled "Termination."
