3.9 Customer Proprietary Network Information. In the normal course of providing services to its users and customers, Callifi collects and maintains certain customer proprietary network information (“CPNI”) typical to the industry. CPNI includes the types of telecommunications and interconnected VoIP services Customer currently purchases or subscribes to, how Customer uses those services (for example, Customer’s calling records), and billing information related to those services. Customer’s Callifi telephone number, name, and address do not constitute CPNI. Callifi does not sell, trade, or otherwise share Customer’s CPNI with anyone outside of Callifi and those parties authorized to represent Callifi to offer Callifi’s services or to perform functions on Callifi’s behalf related to Callifi’s services, except as the law may require or Customer may authorize. Federal law generally permits Callifi to use CPNI in its provision of the telecommunications and interconnected VoIP services Customer purchases or subscribes to, including billing and collections for those services. Callifi may also use or disclose Customer CPNI for legal or regulatory reasons such as to respond to a court order, to investigate fraud, to protect Callifi’s rights or property, to protect against the unlawful use of Callifi services, or to protect other users.Customer may elect to prohibit Callifi’s use of Customer’s CPNI to market services other than Services of the same type that Customer already purchases from Callifi by providing Callifi with Customer’s “opt-out” notice within thirty (30) calendar days of the Effective Date to opt-out@callifi.com. If Customer fails to do so within such timeframe, Customer will be deemed to have given Callifi consent to use Customer’s CPNI to market services other than Services of the same type that Customer already purchases from Callifi. Restricting Callifi’s use of Customer CPNI will not affect Callifi’s provision of any service, nor will it necessarily eliminate all types of Callifi marketing.
3.10 Web access. Certain pages on the Callifi Communications website (“Site”) along with Customer’s account may be accessed exclusively through the use of a unique Personal Identification Number (“PIN”). Customer is solely responsible for all uses of the Site, the Services, Customer’s account, and the unique PIN. If Customer’s account is accessed by an unauthorized party or fraudulently used, Customer will immediately notify Callifi in writing of such unauthorized and/or fraudulent use. Callifi has the right to interrupt, restrict or terminate Services to Customer’s account, without notice if Callifi suspects fraudulent or abusive activity. Customer agrees to cooperate with Callifi in any fraud investigation and to adopt any fraud prevention measures prescribed by Callifi. Customer shall be fully responsible for charges related to, and shall not be excused from paying Callifi for, Services provided on the basis that fraudulent calls comprised all or a portion of Services.

Customer represents and warrants that it has all necessary rights, licenses, consents, and permissions to grant such license and permit such use.
4.5 Callifi will endeavor to store Customer’s voicemail, sent or received call logs, recorded/stored calls, and/ or instant messages as part of the Services; however Callifi is not obligated to do so and Callifi has no responsibility or liability for the deletion or failure to store any of the foregoing.
