Effective February 11, 2023 for current users, and upon acceptance for new users.
1. INTRODUCTION; DEFINITIONS; ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS
1.1 Introduction: These Terms of Service (“TOS”) constitute the agreement between Honeytree Technologies, LLC (“Honeytree”) and the user ofHoneytree′s communications Services and any related products or Services.
This agreement governs our Service, as defined below, and allHoneytree applications and software. It also applies to all Numbers and Service plans on each Honeytree account. Honeytree is sometimes referred to as “the company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” and the user is sometimes referred to as “you,” “your,” or “user,” “client” or “client”.
1.2 Definitions:
- “Terms” is defined as these TOS together with any Legal Notices applicable to the Services, all price schedules, and other supplemental documents that may supplement these TOS now or in the future.
- “Service” is defined as Honeytree’s products, software, services and web sites.
- “Plan” and “Subscription” are defined as each Honeytree Standard and Honeytree Pro or other named subscription packages and/or Services as offered by Honeytree.
- “Number” is defined as each telephone or fax number(s) provided for your Honeytree account.
1.3 Acceptance of Terms: You may not use the Service without first agreeing to the Terms. By using the Service you confirm your acceptance of, and agree to be bound by, the Terms. You may not use the Service if you are not of legal age to form a binding contract or are a person otherwise barred from using the Service under the jurisdiction under which you reside. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, this agreement will govern the use of any new features that augment or enhance the current Services, including but not limited to, the release of new Honeytree software, applications, and services. In the case of any violation of this agreement, Honeytree reserves the right to seek all remedies available by law and in equity.
2. EMERGENCY SERVICES; 911 SERVICE
Access to emergency operators through the Honeytree service is different than traditional 911 services provided by circuit-based local telephone service in a number of ways. Honeytree’s voice service is dependent in part upon internet access. If such access is not available for any reason – such as a power outage, configuration issues, etc. – no calling service may be available including calls attempted to 911. Honeytree’s calling service is routed over the internet. Calls can be delayed or not completed due to network congestion associated with the internet which would also impact calls placed to 911. Also, if your service from Honeytree is disconnected for any reason, no calling service will be available including calls placed to 911. Additionally, the registered address that you provided when you signed up for service is the address that will be transmitted to emergency call takers. Automatic location information will NOT be transmitted. It is also possible that your call-back number will not be automatically transmitted such that you will have to inform the emergency call taker of your phone number so that you may be contacted on the device you use in connection with your Honeytree service. If you are calling from a location other than the registered location address, you will have to inform the emergency call taker of your actual location; otherwise emergency responders may be sent to the wrong location. If you travel outside of your registered location, it is also possible that calls to 911 will route to emergency call takers associated with your registered address that may not be able to dispatch emergency responders to your actual location or transfer your call to the appropriate emergency call takers. When you initially sign up for service and provide your registered location information, there may be a delay in updating the relevant databases such that emergency call takers will have access to your registered address information. If you do not provide a registered location, your call may be routed to a call center rather than a geographically appropriate 911 operator.
911 CALLING SERVICE DISCLAIMER AND INDEMNIFICATION
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT HONEYTREE DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL LIABILITY FOR ANY SERVICE OUTAGE OR INABILITY TO COMPLETE EMERGENCY 911 CALLS FROM ANY LINE OR DEVICE ASSOCIATED WITH THE HONEYTREE OR TO ACCESS EMERGENCY SERVICE OPERATORS.

IN NO EVENT SHALL HONEYTREE BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR SPECIAL DAMAGES RELATED TO YOUR (OR YOUR EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR CONTRACTORS, OR THIRD PERSON OR THIRD PARTY OR USER OF THE SERVICES) USE OF OR INABILITY TO ACCESS EMERGENCY 911 CALLING SERVICES.
