Wildix Terms and Conditions

Wildix Terms and Conditions

Thank you for selecting the Wildix Advanced Unified Communications and Collaboration System (“Wildix System” or “System”) that is virtualized and maintained at Amazon Web Services “AWS”, one of the most reliable data cloud service providers in the world. Please review this Terms and Conditions Agreement (“Agreement”) thoroughly because they regulate the usage of your new Wildix System.

This Agreement is a legal agreement between Comtex, Inc., your Wildix vendor (“Comtex”) and the users of the Wildix System and Licenses, (“Client” or “You” or “Your”). Comtex and Client may be individually referred to as a “Party” or collectively as the “Parties.” The Descriptive Wildix Communication System Proposal (“Contract”), signed by You, is expressly incorporated herein and constitutes part of this Agreement. Your signature on Your Contract means that you accept these Terms and Conditions even if You choose not to read them. If You do not accept the terms and conditions stated herein, do not enter into a contract with Comtex to use the Wildix System. We reserve the right to revise these terms and conditions at any time by updating this posting. You should visit this page periodically to review these terms and conditions. If at any time, You do not agree to any of the terms of this Agreement, You shall immediately stop using the Wildix System but You will still be subject to the Contract terms and the payments due thereunder.

If You are entering into this Agreement on behalf of a company, organization or another legal entity (“Entity”), You are agreeing to this Agreement for that Entity and are representing to Comtex that You have the authority to bind such Entity and its affiliates to this Agreement. If You do not have such authority, or if You do not agree with this Agreement, You must not accept this Agreement and may not use the Wildix System or any of the features.

Each end user of Your Wildix System requires a Wildix license (“License”) to enable use and access to communication and collaboration features, Wildix hardware, and the Wildix web portal. Comtex does not order, supply, provision, service or repair any dial tone or internet services and Your Contract pricing does NOT include the cost of these services. Such services are provided to You by a third-party carrier of Your choice under a separate contract and terms. You are responsible to order and pay for these required services. If there is a support issue, please call Comtex first so we can diagnose Your issue and if necessary to the resolution of Your issue, we will direct You to call Your carrier.

I. 911 and e911 Notice and Disclosure.

There are differences between the 911 and E911 access capabilities available through Your System (“VoIP 911 and E911 Service”) as compared to the 911 and E911 access capability available with traditional wired non-VoIP telephone systems. By executing this Agreement and activating your Licenses, You affirmatively acknowledge that (i) You have read and understand this Section and Your dial tone carrier’s 911 and e-911 warnings, (ii) You may not be able to contact emergency services by dialing 9-1-1 using the VoIP 911 and E911 Service and (iii) You must inform Users of the Services that they may not be able to contact emergency services by dialing 9-1-1 using the VoIP 911 and E911 Service. Your dial tone carrier provides You access to emergency calling services, allowing You 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 traditional wireline or wireless telephones. It is strongly recommended that You have an alternative means for placing emergency calls available at all times. Wildix IP Desk Phone or Soft Phones (“Phones”) can dial 911. Calls to 911 placed through the Wildix Mobile Application on a smartphone are automatically routed to the native dialer on the smartphone, and the call will be handled by Your wireless service provider if wireless service is available. The Wildix Mobile Application cannot place emergency calls over Wi-Fi access. Emergency dialing is not available through the Wildix Mobile Application on tablets or other mobile devices without a native phone dialer and a wireless service plan.

A. How it Works.

When a Wildix user dials 911 on an IP Desk or Softphone, Your phone number and the Registered Address You have provided to your dial tone carrier is sent to the local emergency center serving Your location. Your “Registered Address” is the address of the physical location where You will use Your Wildix Phones. Comtex does not control whether or not the emergency operator receives Your telephone number and Registered Address.

B. Service limitations.

911 service will not function in the event of an Internet or power outage, if You do not have cellular service (on the Wildix Mobile Application), or if Your broadband, ISP, or Licenses are terminated or expire. The Wildix Mobile Application cannot send emergency calls over Wi-Fi access.

C. Registering Your Location.

Prior to the activation of Your Wildix System, You agree to register with Your Dial Tone provider, the address of the physical location where You will use the Wildix System for each Phone. You must register the address of where any remote phones are physically located. 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.

D. Notification of Employees, Guests, or Other Users.

You agree to notify any employees, contractors, guests, or persons who may place calls using the System or may be present at the physical location where the System may be used, of the limitations of 911 Service from Your Wildix Phones. You and Your End Users should always have an alternative means for placing 911 calls.

E. Disclaimer of Liability for Emergency Call Response.

You acknowledge and agree that Your use and use by Your employees and/or guests or other third parties, of 911 Services are subject to the limitations described herein.

To the extent permitted by applicable Law, You hereby release, discharge, and hold harmless Comtex 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 Comtex from any and all third party claims, losses, damages, fines, or penalties arising out of: (i) Your provision of incorrect information to Comtex or Your carrier, 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 Wildix System and the 911 limitations; or (iii) the absence, failure, or outage of emergency service dialing using the System for any reason; and (iv) the inability of any User of the System to be able to dial 911 or access emergency service personnel for any reason.

II. Wildix System Order and Contract Term

A. Contract Execution

Client and Comtex entered into a Contract that identifies the Wildix equipment purchased and the Licenses requested by Client, along with the pricing for each. Licenses are only available on subscription and paid for on a recurring monthly basis. Any deposits paid pursuant to that Contract are non-refundable because everything is special ordered. That Contract is incorporated into and forms a part of this Agreement. The Licenses ordered will be activated the date they are uploaded to the System for programming (“Start Date”). Billing for the Licenses will commence on the Start Date. Client may order additional Licenses and equipment by contacting Your sales representative.

B. Equipment

Client may purchase or rent equipment from Comtex for use with the Wildix System. The terms and conditions that govern any such transactions are found in Your Contract for the Wildix System.

For these and other reasons, the completion of any number port request and the timing of and date by which any such request may be completed depend on a number of factors outside of Comtex’s control, including without limitation the acts and omissions of both You and third parties, including without limitation other services providers. You acknowledge and agree that Comtex has no responsibility or liability due to such port-outs. You agree, represent and warrant that all information or representations provided in connection with any request to port in or port out numbers by You, any End User, or any party acting on behalf of, at the direction or request of, or with the permission or knowledge of any of the foregoing shall be accurate.

TO THE EXTENT THAT COMTEX CANNOT DISCLAIM ANY SUCH WARRANTY AS A MATTER OF APPLICABLE LAW, THE SCOPE AND DURATION OF SUCH WARRANTY SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

XIV. Dispute Resolution

A. Good Faith Attempt to Settle Disputes

In the event of any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to the Agreement (a “Dispute”), each Party will appoint a duly authorized representative which will confer with the other Party before either Party brings legal action, to make a reasonable and good faith effort to settle or otherwise resolve such Dispute.

B. Resolution in Small Claims Court.

In the event the dispute is not resolved, and the claim falls within the dollar limit allowed by New Jersey Superior Court, Small Claims Court, along with any other jurisdictional requirements, either Party may seek to have that dispute resolved in Small Claims court in New Jersey.

C. Binding Arbitration.

If negotiations fail to resolve the dispute within thirty (30) calendar days, and small claims court is not a valid option due to the size or nature of the claim, all disputed claims must be resolved by binding arbitration before a single arbitrator in accordance with the commercial rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) (available on the AAA website, www.adr.org/aaa) in effect as of the date this Agreement goes into effect. This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be given the broadest possible meaning under Applicable Laws. The place of arbitration will be in Bergen County New Jersey. The complaining Party shall notify the other Party in writing thereof. Within thirty (30) days of such notice, management level representatives of both Parties shall meet at an agreed location to attempt to resolve the dispute in good faith. Should the dispute not be resolved within thirty (30) days after such notice, the complaining Party shall seek remedies exclusively through arbitration. The demand for arbitration shall be made within a reasonable time after the claim, dispute or other matter in question has arisen, and in no event shall it be made after one year from when the aggrieved party knew or should have known of the controversy, claim, dispute or breach. The cost of the arbitration proceeding and any proceeding in court to confirm or to vacate any arbitration award, as applicable (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs), shall be borne by the unsuccessful party, as determined by the arbitrators, and shall be awarded as part of the arbitrator’s award. It is specifically understood and agreed that any party may enforce any award rendered pursuant to the arbitration provisions of this Section by bringing suit in any court of competent jurisdiction. The parties agree that the arbitrator shall have authority to grant injunctive or other forms of equitable relief to any party. This Section shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s award in any court having jurisdiction.

XV. Miscellaneous

B. Force Majeure

Excluding either Party’s payment obligations under the Agreement, neither Party will be responsible or liable for any failure to perform or delay in performing to the extent resulting from any event or circumstance that is beyond that Party’s reasonable control, including without limitation any act of nature; national emergency; third-party telecommunications networks; riot; war; terrorism; governmental act or direction; change in Laws; fiber, cable, or wire cut; power outage or reduction; rebellion; revolution; insurrection; earthquake; storm; hurricane; flood, fire, or other natural disaster; strike or labor disturbance; or other cause, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, not resulting from the actions or inactions of such Party.

C. No Waiver

H. Severability and Waiver

The failure by either Party to exercise or enforce any right conferred by this Agreement will not be deemed to be a waiver of any such right or to operate so as to bar the exercise or enforcement of any such or other right on any later occasion. Except as otherwise expressly stated in this Agreement, all rights and remedies stated in the Agreement are cumulative and in addition to any other rights and remedies available under the Agreement, at Law, or in equity.
