Terms of Use

Date of Last Revision: October 2021

 

These Terms of Use (the "Terms") describe the terms under which you may access and use the mobile and web-based messaging and telecommunication services (the "Services") provided by RMS Software, Inc. ("RMS") and, if applicable, the client of RMS who has licensed certain applications from RMS and through which you were granted access to the services (the “Client”).

The Services are a set of applications accessed through the web or mobile devices, the features of which vary based on which applications are licensed and to which you are granted access to and for which you register. These Terms may be modified by RMS at any time without prior notice. Changes to the Terms will be posted on this page, and this page will indicate at the top the date these Terms were last revised. You agree to be bound by any such modifications once they are posted on this web site (the "Site"), and your continued registration to use, or use of, the Services following any such posting constitutes your acceptance of such modifications.

 

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF USE CAREFULLY AS THEY CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, REMEDIES AND OBLIGATIONS.

 

Messaging

At any time you may stop SMS messages from being sent to your phone by simply texting STOP to 67283 from your registered mobile phone. You will no longer receive text messages from RMS if you utilize this service. Text INFO or HELP to 67283 from your registered mobile phone and you will be sent a text message with simple instructions.

By registering for this service you will periodically receive text messages. The frequency of these messages will depend on how you use this service, and how frequently the client sends messages through this service. Message and data rates may apply.

Alerts sent via SMS may not be delivered to you if your phone is not in range of a transmission site, or if sufficient network capacity is not available at a particular time. Even within a coverage area, factors beyond Verizon's control may interfere with message delivery, including the customer's equipment, terrain, proximity to buildings, foliage, and weather. You acknowledge that urgent alerts may not be timely received and that carriers do not guarantee that alerts will be delivered.

 

Eligibility; Term

By using the Services, you represent that you have either reached the age of majority where you live or have valid parent or legal guardian consent to be bound by these Terms. If you do not know whether you have reached the age of majority where you live, or do not understand this section, please ask your parent or legal guardian for help and consent before registering for the Services or using the Services. If you are the parent or legal guardian of a minor who registers for the Services or uses the Services, you and the minor accept and agree to be bound by these Terms and are responsible for all use of the Services.  If you have not reached the age of majority and do not have valid parent or legal guardian consent to agree to these Terms, you must not use the Services or any RMS application.  

Any registration by, use of or access to the Site or the Services by anyone under 13 is unauthorized, unlicensed and in violation of these Terms. You are responsible for obtaining access to the Services and acknowledge that such access may involve third party fees (such as Internet service provider, SMS, mobile data usage or other airtime charges). You are responsible for any such fees and any and all equipment necessary to access the Services. By agreeing to these Terms or by using the Services, the Site and the RMS applications and services, you represent and warrant that you have the right, authority, and capacity to enter into these Terms and to abide by all of the terms and conditions hereof. These Terms shall remain in full force and effect until your registration is terminated. RMS, at its sole discretion, may restrict or terminate your use of the Services for any reason, at any time. If RMS restricts or terminates your use of the Services because you have breached these Terms, you shall remain obligated under these Terms.

 

Registration

As part of the registration process, you or the Client must provide certain data and personally identifiable information (such as name, address, telephone number, account number, equipment identifiers, and Internet Protocol address that you or the Client makes available to RMS) about you (collectively, "PII"). You acknowledge and agree that you are responsible for the accuracy and completeness of your PII, whether provided to RMS by you or by the Client, and that the effectiveness of the Services will depend in part upon the accuracy and completeness of your PII. You agree to (a) provide to RMS and the Client accurate, current and complete PII and (b) maintain and promptly update such PII to keep it accurate, current and complete. You further agree that RMS or the Client may, but is not obligated to, contact you from time to time through the Services or otherwise to verify the accuracy and completeness of your PII.

You acknowledge and agree that RMS or the Client each has the right, but not the obligation, to monitor, review and delete any messages, images or any other content that you publish, display or otherwise transmit directly or indirectly through the Services or the Site (“User Content”) that in either of their sole judgment violates these Terms, might be offensive or illegal, or might violate the rights of, harm, or threaten the safety of others. You further agree to abide by any applicable Client terms and polices regarding or relating to the use of the Services. You agree that RMS shall have the right to suspend or remove any member who violates these Terms or any such policy at any time and without advanced notice to the member.

If this type of emergency response contact service is part of the Services provided to you, you expressly consent to RMS’s disclosure of PII to any emergency response service or other emergency personnel in connection with the Services. You acknowledge that neither the Client (if applicable) nor RMS is responsible for any such emergency response services nor guarantees the accuracy, integrity or quality of any emergency response service.

You acknowledge that any emergency response contact service included as part of the Services is not intended to replace or as a substitute for traditional 911 service or contacting a police or security force or other emergency personnel directly and that you are responsible for determining whether to use RMS’s emergency response contact service or a traditional 911 service, or whether to contact a police or security force or other emergency personnel directly.
