8.2 Provider does not warrant that any particular results will be achieved through the Services. Where the Provider indicates specific targets that it will attempt to meet through the provision of the Services, such targets are aspirational and are in no way guaranteed. Failure to meet any such targets shall not constitute breach of this Agreement or entitle the Client to damages of any kind. Except for the express representations and warranties stated in this Agreement and/or the Contract Documents, Provider disclaims any and all warranties associated with the Services, either express or implied, including, without limitation, warranties of merchantability and/or fitness for a particular purpose.

An increase in Ad Spend may result in an increase of management fees due by the Client. This is an advertising service and there is no guarantee of success (financial gain, website traffic, or other).


9. Service Availability and Security

9.1 You understand and acknowledge that the Services are not intended to be error free and that from time to time the Services may contain mistakes, be unavailable or may not be fully functional. This may be as a result of planned or required maintenance, repairs or updates, equipment failures, high volumes of internet traffic, interruption of telecommunications or digital transmissions links, network or system errors or many other factors.

9.2 We will try to minimize any disruption to your use of the Services, however, we do not promise that any Service will be provided on a continuous and uninterrupted basis, or that we will be able to correct any error that occurs in the Services. We will not be not liable for any interruptions to the Service availability or functionality, whether caused by an Event Outside Our Control or by anything else.

9.3 You should notify us if you notice any problems with the availability or functioning of the Services so that we can try to fix these problems.

Client agrees that quantifying losses arising from early cancellation of the Term is inherently difficult insofar as Provider may or may not have already allocated resources or made other business management decisions on the assumption that Client would continue service through natural expiration of the Term. Client acknowledges and agrees that the payment required by this section for early termination is not a penalty, but rather a reasonable approximation of damages that may result.

(c) SMS/Short Code - your business is required to comply with wireless carrier compliance rules, industry standards, and all applicable laws, in the use of any PR.BUSINESS short codes and SMS messages. One key compliance requirement is ensuring that the recipients of your text messages (your recipients) have expressly consented or “opted-in” to receiving text messages as part of your campaign. There are several ways that your recipients can opt-in to receiving messages from you as part of your text messaging campaign. In each case, however, your campaign’s opt-in message flow must meet compliance standards set by the law, industry standards, and wireless carriers. The industry compliance standards for US short code opt-ins can be found in the CTIA Short Code Monitoring Handbook. As a courtesy, we’ve outlined them below.

Handset Opt-In

Use this for ending a text message from a mobile phone to a short code.

When a recipient signs up from a mobile handset, a double opt-in process is advised, but not required. The message flow might look like this:

Recipient: {Keyword}
Short code: Welcome to {Campaign Name} {Description} Alerts! Msg&data rates may apply. {Message frequency} Reply HELP for help, STOP to cancel.

  • The “description” should be a single word to define the kind of alerts, e.g. “Account Alerts,” “News Alerts,” “Promo Alerts,” etc.
  • The message frequency must be specific, but can be any interval, for example: “1 message per day,” “4 messages per month,” “2 messages per transaction,” etc. If the message frequency will vary based on user interaction, “1 message/user request” is standard.

Non-Handset Opt-in

For asking to receive text messages and giving your mobile number to a website, mobile app, paper form, via verbal agreement, or otherwise opting in without using a handset.

When a recipient initially signs up by any means other than from a mobile handset, a double opt-in process may be used but is no longer required for recurring message programs. The message flow might look like this:

(Recipient signs up without using mobile handset, and receives a text message from the short code asking to confirm opt-in)

Short code: Text YES to join {Campaign Name} {Description} Alerts. Msg&data rates may apply. {Message frequency} Reply HELP for help, STOP to cancel.
Recipient:YES
Short code: Welcome to {Campaign Name} {Description} Alerts! Msg&data rates may apply. {Message frequency} Reply HELP for help, STOP to cancel.

Note: Rather than confirming opt-in with a text message keyword such as YES, recipients may confirm by entering a verification code online instead. Once the verification code has been entered, a compliant welcome message must be sent to the handset.

Additional Requirements

While these guidelines are based on industry standards, we recommend that your review the full set of standards outlined in the CTIA Short Code Monitoring Handbook. Additionally, you should expect that your short code campaign will be audited at some point by a carrier or industry organization. In our experience, U.S. short code campaigns are typically audited for compliance with the CTIA Short Code Monitoring Handbook, but please note that each carrier reserves the right to suspend short code service for any user at any time, so compliance with the above guidelines is not a guarantee against suspension of service by a carrier.

In addition to wireless carrier compliance standards, there may be compliance requirements under U.S. law, including the Telephone Consumers Protection Act of 1991 (TCPA) or the Healthcare Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), depending on the nature of your text messaging campaign. These requirements may include things such as ensuring that the consent you receive from your recipients is in writing or ensuring that use of your services is not conditioned upon consenting to receive your text messages, or both. The specific legal compliance requirements will depend on the details of your text message campaign, and you should consult with your legal counsel to ensure that your text messaging campaign complies with the wireless carriers standards, industry standards, and with the law applicable to your campaign.
