Charges and Billing

  1. You authorize any charges incurred from the use of your Halloo account to be billed to you through your charge or credit card account. A valid charge or credit card number is required when the Halloo Service with a prepaid fee, a monthly fee or usage fee is activated. If the card expires, you close your account or your billing address changes, or the card is cancelled and replaced owing to loss or theft, you must advise Halloo Communications at once. You may use the Halloo account only so long as your charge or credit card remains valid and in good standing. Your Halloo account must not be used after your Halloo account or your charge or credit card has expired or has been withdrawn, revoked, or terminated. You continue to be responsible to Halloo Communications for any charges resulting from the use of your Halloo account after your charge or credit card has been terminated, or after you revoke your authorization to bill your account, at which time all outstanding charges will be payable immediately to Halloo Communications.
  2. You may provide a new credit card for your account at any time. You can provide a credit card by logging into your account and changing payment information. Upon verification, Halloo Communications, Inc. will first attempt to collect any subsequent charges from this new credit card. If any charge to the new card fails for any reason, Halloo Communications, Inc. reserves the rights to attempt collection from any other credit card associated with the account.
  3. Your Halloo account is not transferable in any way and may not be assigned to any third party. You agree to pay for all charges incurred by use of the Halloo account issued to you and comply with the other terms and conditions set forth herein. All charges incurred through use of your Halloo account and debited to your credit card account are subject to the credit card finance charges appearing on your account statement, in accordance with the terms and conditions of that account.
  4. Charges for the services will be rated and charged in accordance with the rates provided herein, on our website or any promotional offer during the published terms of such offer by Halloo Communications in United States dollars at a flat rate per minute (as provided in our price list and with surcharges outside the 48 contiguous states). Our rates are calculated at one-minute increments. The amount debited will include any applicable taxes, and will be shown in the currency provided for in your charge or credit card agreement. All prices are subject to change without prior notice. Our published rates may not include additional charges you may receive for terminating or forwarding a call to a cell phone or public pay phone.
  5. Customer is responsible for, and shall pay any applicable federal, state, municipal, local or other governmental sales, use, excise, value-added, public utility or other taxes, fees or charges now in force or enacted in the future, that arise from or as a result of Customer’s subscription or use or payment for the Halloo Service.
  6. All Monthly Service Charges and Monthly Recurring Charges and any additional per minute charges incurred will normally be charged to your account on a monthly basis. Features which are billed on an as-used basis (Conference calling etc.), are generally charged to your account when your outstanding balance of these features use or additional per minute charges exceeds your credit limit (e.g., $10.00 of accumulated charges) or at the end of your monthly billing cycle if the accumulated charges are below the limit. These charges will appear as part of your next month billing cycle. The amount charged will include any applicable taxes, and will be shown in the currency provided for in your charge or credit card agreement. All prices are subject to change without prior notice.
  7. Your payment card is normally charged once per term on the first day of the new billing cycle for your term rate plan(s) and any other balance due (feature charges). E.g., a one (1) year (prepaid) account will be charged 12 times the monthly fees (MRC) associated with the account upon activation and again whenever the account has used its credit balance. An account may run out of its credit balance sooner than a year from the prepayment due to additional charges including but not limited to out-of-plan usage, payphone termination charges and international calling surcharges. Your payment card will be charged when the credit balance has been used and an amount is due. This will mark the beginning of a new Term.
  8. Your account is considered late when a payment fails for any reason. The late fee or failed payment fee assessed may be up to the the greater amount of $39 or 1.5% of balance due. Multiple late fees and failed payment fees can be incurred in the same monthly period if multiple collections fail.
  9. Changing Service Plans. If you choose to switch to a different calling plan, please log in to your on-line account management interface and change plan to the new desired plan or send an e-mail to [email protected] from your administrator e-mail address, including your account ID as well as the name of the plan that you would like to switch to. You may change plans at any time during your billing cycle. You will receive a pro-rated credit for the unused portion of your existing rate plan as applicable and a prorated charge for the new plan. A change of plans is treated as a termination of the old plan part way through the month, followed by the initiation of the new plan part way through the month. Any included minutes remaining from the old plan will be lost, but a pro-rated fraction of minutes from the new plan will be granted. However, if the fraction of included minutes from the old plan that have been used is greater than the fraction of the month that has elapsed, then the refunded portion of the old plan will be calculated based upon the fraction of monthly included minutes used, rather than the fraction of time elapsed. Changing to a larger plan will often result in a payment before the monthly billing date. Changing to any term plan will result in charges for the new term to be added to your account.. E.g., a change to an Prepaid Annual Plan will result in charges for 12 months plus the remainder of the current month to be added to your account. Removing individual extensions does not result in a reduction of remaining minutes or a prorated refund.
  10. Audio Storage Usage Over Limit. If you use more space for audio storage than the allocated space for your plan, then your account may be upgraded without notification to accommodate the space used. Your account will never be automatically downgraded.
  11. Unused monthly minutes for plans. At the end of each service month, any unused minutes remaining in your account will be forfeited. Minutes cannot be rolled over from one month to the next. At the beginning of each months billing cycle, if your account is in good standing, your account will be recharged to the specified amount of minutes in your monthly rate plan.
  12. Calls from public pay phones to Toll Free Numbers. If your plan includes a Toll Free Number, any call originating from a public pay phone to your Toll Free number will be subject to a pay phone termination charge. The current surcharge for a call of this type is listed on the surcharge page of our website and is subject to change at any time. The amount of the surcharge stipulated in this clause at the time the call is completed will be billed to your account.
  13. Calls to Mobile Phones. Most plans include calls to mobile phones, but rates to mobile phones maybe charged at a different rate. Call to mobile phones in the continental U.S. are charged at the same rates as to wire line phones in the continental U.S. Calls to mobile phones to countries outside the U.S. may be charged at a different rate than wire line rates for that country. Please consult the international calling rates to determine if there is a different rate for mobile phone calling in that country.
  14. International Rates. Calls to and/or from countries, states and territories outside the continental U.S. (including calls from/to Hawaii, Alaska, US Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico and other US territories) are charged at the current rates available from Halloo at the time the call is placed.
  15. Calls using Answering Service. Calls using the Answering Service are charged at the current rates available from Halloo at the time the call is placed.

Customer will be billed at Halloo’s then current service usage rates for voice traffic. Usage charges are based on the actual usage of Halloo Service, measured in Minutes, which begin when the called party or its IVR answers and end when either party disconnects. If the called party does not answer, Halloo may disconnect that call (normally after 150 seconds) and bill the call for 120 seconds. Customer’s International rates, International discounts and International billing increments as well as all other rates, discounts and billing increments are subject to change upon 5 days notice by Halloo to Customer. Rate changes may be provided by Halloo on its web site or via electronic mail to the e-mail address on file for the customer's account, and shall be deemed received when sent by Halloo in accordance with the above.

User Responsibilities

Fees paid to Halloo Communications are for services provided by Halloo Communications. In order for you to use the Service, it is your responsibility to furnish at your own expense and paid for by you:

  • Provide and be responsible for a connection to the Internet
  • Provide at your own expense any equipment needed to connect to and make use of the Internet and e-mail account
  • Obtain your own phone service and required features from your local or wireless provider
  • Obtain any other equipment, communications services or features (e.g., Audio recording software, Firefox or Chrome browser) that you desire to use with Service(s) provided by Halloo Communications

The fees paid by you to Halloo Communications are only for the Halloo Service. You are responsible for all charges associated with your telephone, all telephony equipment, long distance charges and charges for connecting to the Internet. You agree that any telephone or communications charges incurred by you are your sole responsibility. You may be subject to other charges from your phone company in addition to fees for this service.

Ownership of Number

You understand and agree that you are not the owner of any telephone number assigned to you by Halloo. Ownership of any such phone number is vested solely in Halloo (who will assign or re-assign such numbers to you for your use during the term of this Agreement). You understand and agree that (a) Halloo may from time to time need to change the number assigned to you (due to an area code split or for any other reason outside of Halloo's control) and (b) following the termination of your account for any reason you will no longer have access to such number. In either case, such phone number may be re-assigned immediately to another customer and you agree that Halloo will not be liable for damages (including consequential or special damages) arising out of any such re-assignment and you hereby waive any claims with respect to any such re-assignment, whether based on contract, tort or other grounds, even if Halloo has been advised of the possibility of damages. In the event that the Service associated with your Halloo number is being terminated, then Halloo will, upon your written request and through standard porting procedures, allow you to move your Halloo number from us to an alternate carrier (and will provide the necessary documentation to support this process), provided that (a) the termination of Service is not due to a default; that (b) all fees and charges for the Services, whether or not then due, have been paid in full; and, (c) a $50 port-away fee is paid to Halloo. This port-away fee may be waived for specific accounts at Halloo's discretion. Port completion timing is determined by the winning carrier. Halloo is not notified by the winning carrier when the port is complete. It is, therefore, the customer's responsibility to communicate with Halloo when the number has been ported away and is fully functional on the winning carrier's service. Halloo will remove the number from the customer's system then. Porting away the last number on the a Halloo account will not automatically cancel the account. It is the customer's responsibility to communicate with Halloo when the number has been ported away and is fully functional on the winning carrier’s service. Halloo will cancel the customer's service upon notice from customer.

Acceptable Use Policy

This acceptable use policy (the "Policy") defines acceptable practices relating to the use of Halloo's services (the "Service") by customers of Halloo ("Customers") and by users that have gained access to the Service through Customer accounts ("Users"). By using the Service, you acknowledge that you and your Users are responsible for compliance with the Policy. You are responsible for violations of this Policy by any User that accesses the Services through your account. While it is not our intent to control or monitor online experience or the content of online communications, we may edit or remove content that we deem to be in violation of the Policy or that we otherwise deem unlawful, harmful or offensive. The Policy applies to all aspects of the Service. "Halloo" means Halloo Communications Inc, and all of its affiliates (including direct and indirect subsidiaries and parents). "Halloo Network" includes, without limitation, Halloo's constructed or leased transmission network, including all equipment, systems, facilities, services and products incorporated or used in such transmission network. As used in this Policy, "you" refers to Customers, and any reference to "Users" is intended to encompass, as applicable, both Customers and their Users.

This Policy is designed to assist in protecting the Halloo Network, the Service, our Users and the Internet and phone community as a whole from improper and/or illegal activity over the phone network and/or the Internet, to improve Service and to improve Service offerings. In situations where data or voice communications are carried across networks of other Internet Service Providers (ISPs), carriers or phone companies, Users of the Halloo Network must also conform to the applicable acceptable use policies of such other ISPs, carriers and phone companies.

Reasonable Use

Reasonable Use of Service. Halloo is dedicated to delivering exceptional customer service and value to its users through its Services. To ensure optimal pricing, support, and availability of Services to all users, Halloo reserves the right to establish usage limits for the Services or to terminate the Services if, based on reasonable judgment, Halloo determines that a user's utilization, including but not limited to the aggregate number of calls made, SMS messages sent, or minutes utilized, deviates from the ordinary, equitable, and rational utilization of such Services. When circumstances permit, Halloo shall provide written notice prior to implementing any such actions and shall allow a reasonable period for the user to make adjustments to their usage.

This Reasonable Use provision is intended to safeguard the integrity and quality of the Services provided by Halloo, promoting equitable access and distribution to all users while deterring any excessive, abusive, or disproportionate usage that could potentially compromise the overall functioning and experience of the Services. Halloo's execution of its rights under this provision is characterized by a commitment to reasonableness and transparency, maintaining a balance between user needs and the preservation of fair service provision.

For service plans featuring "unlimited use" and/or "unlimited minutes", (i) may only be used for normal business use, (ii) are provided only for live calls between two individuals, and (iii) exclude international calling, which is available for an additional fee.

Certain usaage scenarios may also fall outside of "reasonable use", including the following:

  • Trunking or forwarding your Halloo number to another phone number capable of handling multiple simultaneous calls, or to a private branch exchange (PBX) or a key system.
  • Spamming or blasting (e.g., sending 100 or more bulk and/or junk voicemail or faxes simultaneously).
  • Bulk call-in lines (e.g., customer support or sales call centers, "hotlines", 900 numbers, sports-line numbers, etc.).
  • Auto-dialing or "predictive" dialing (i.e., non-manual dialing or using a software program or other means to continuously dial or place out-bound calls).

Rights of Halloo

Suspension or Termination of Service

If Users engage in conduct or a pattern of conduct, including without limitation repeated violations by a User whereby correction of individual violations does not in Halloo’s sole discretion correct a pattern of the same or similar violations, while using the Service that violates the Policy, or is otherwise illegal or improper, Halloo reserves the right to suspend and/or terminate the Service or the User's access to the Service. Halloo will generally attempt to notify you of any activity in violation of the Policy and request that the User cease such activity; however, in cases where the operation of the Halloo Network is threatened or cases involving unsolicited commercial email/SPAM, a pattern of violations, mail relaying, alteration of your source IP address information, alteration of your caller ID, denial of service attacks, illegal activities, suspected fraud in connection with the use of Service, harassment or copyright infringement, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate your Service or the User's access to the Service without notification. In addition, we may take any other appropriate action against you or a User for violations of the Policy, including repeated violations wherein correction of individual violations does not in Halloo’s sole discretion correct a pattern of the same or similar violations. Halloo reserves the right to avail itself of the safe harbor provisions of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. We do not make any promise, nor do we have any obligation, to monitor or police activity occurring using the Service and will have no liability to any party, including you, for any violation of the Policy.

Cooperation with Investigations

Halloo will cooperate with appropriate law enforcement agencies and other parties involved in investigating claims of illegal or inappropriate activity. Halloo reserves the right to disclose customer information to the extent authorized by federal or state law. In those instances involving child pornography, Halloo complies with all applicable federal and state laws including providing notice to the National Center for the Missing and Exploited Children or other designated agencies.

Modifications to Policy

Halloo reserves the right to modify this Policy at any time without notice. We will attempt to notify Customers of any such modifications either via e-mail or by posting a revised version of the Policy on our Web site. Any such modifications shall be effective and applied prospectively from the date of posting.

Filters and Service Information

We reserve the right to install and use, or to have you install and use, any appropriate devices to prevent violations of this Policy, including devices designed to filter or terminate access to the Service. By accepting and using the Service, you consent to allowing us to collect service information and routing information in the normal course of our business, and to use such information for general business purposes.

Prohibited Uses

Illegal Activity

The Service shall not be used for any unlawful activities or in connection with any criminal or civil violation and the Services shall in all cases be used in compliance with applicable law. Use of the Service for transmission, distribution, retrieval, or storage of any information, data or other material in violation of any applicable law or regulation (including, where applicable, any tariff or treaty) is prohibited. This includes, without limitation, the use or transmission of any data or material protected by copyright, trademark, trade secret, patent or other intellectual property right without proper authorization and the transmission of any material that constitutes an illegal threat, violates export control laws, violates do-not-call legislation or wire-tapping laws, or is obscene, defamatory or otherwise unlawful.

Unauthorized Access/Interference

A User may not attempt to gain unauthorized access to, or attempt to interfere with or compromise the normal functioning, operation or security of, any portion of the Halloo Network.

A User may not attempt to gain unauthorized access to the user accounts or passwords of other Users.

Unsolicited Commercial Email/Spamming/Mailbombing

A User may not use the Service to transmit unsolicited commercial e-mail messages or deliberately send excessively large attachments to one recipient, nor use the service to spam over phone (SPIT), solicit in violation of the do-not-call regulations or covertly record in violation of Halloo policies or wire-tapping laws. Any unsolicited commercial e-mail messages or phone calls, or a series of unsolicited commercial e-mail messages or large attachments sent to one recipient is prohibited. In addition, "spamming" or "mailbombing" as well as "SPITting" or "voice mail bombing" is prohibited. Use of the service of another provider to send unsolicited commercial email, spam or mailbombs, SPIT or voicemailbombs, to promote a site hosted on or phone number hosted on, or site or phone number connected to the Halloo Network, is similarly prohibited. Likewise, a User may not use the Service to collect responses from mass unsolicited e-mail messages or voice mail messages. Halloo may in its sole discretion rely upon information obtained from anti-spamming organizations (including for example and without limitation spamhaus.org, spamcop.net, sorbs.net, and abuse.net) as evidence that a User is an active "spam operation" for purposes of taking remedial action under this Policy.

Spoofing/Fraud

Users are prohibited from intentionally or negligently injecting false data into the Internet and phone network, for instance in the form of bad routing information (including but not limited to the announcing of networks owned by someone else or reserved by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority or phone numbers belonging to somebody else) or incorrect DNS information or incorrect caller ID information.

A User may not attempt to send e-mail messages or transmit any electronic communications or place phone calls using a name or address or phone number of someone other than the User for purposes of deception. Any attempt to impersonate someone else by altering source IP address information, caller ID or by using forged headers or other identifying information is prohibited. Any attempt to fraudulently conceal, forge or otherwise falsify a User's identity in connection with use of the Service is prohibited.

Complaints

Halloo receives complaints directly from Internet and phone network users, through Internet organizations, carriers, phone companies and through other parties. Halloo shall not be required to determine the validity of complaints received, or of information obtained from anti-spamming organizations, carriers or other phone companies, before taking action under this AUP. A complaint from the recipient of commercial email, or commercial phone calls, whether received directly or through an anti-spamming organization, shall be evidence that the message was unsolicited. Halloo has no obligation to forward the complaint to the User or to identify the complaining parties.

The following activities are also prohibited:

  • Intentionally transmitting files containing a computer virus or corrupted data.
  • If we have specified bandwidth or simultaneous call limitations for your user account, use of the Service shall not be in excess of those limitations.
  • Attempting to circumvent or alter the processes or procedures to measure time, bandwidth utilization, minute usage, or other methods to document use of Halloo's services.
  • Advertising, transmitting, or otherwise making available any software, program, product, or service that is designed to violate this AUP, which includes the facilitation of the means to deliver unsolicited commercial email or phone calls.
  • Any activity that disrupts, degrades, harms or threatens to harm the Halloo Network or the Service.
  • Any use of another party’s electronic mail server or phone system to relay email or phone calls without express permission from such other party is prohibited.
  • Any other inappropriate activity or abuse of the Service (as determined by us in our sole discretion), whether or not specifically listed in this Policy, may result in suspension or termination of the User’s access to or use of the Service. This listing of prohibited activities is not exhaustive and Halloo reserves the right to determine that any conduct that is or could be harmful to the Halloo Network, Halloo’s Customers, Internet users or enhanced communications users is in violation of this Policy and to exercise any or all of the remedies contained in this Policy.
Responsibilities of Customers

Users are entirely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of password, pin and account information, as well as the security of their network. You agree immediately to notify Halloo of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security known to you. If you become aware of any violation of this Policy by any person, including Users that have accessed the Service through your account, you are required to notify us.

Impending Security Event Notification

All Users of the Halloo Network are responsible for notifying Halloo immediately if they become aware of an impending event that may negatively affect the Halloo Network. This includes extortion threats that involve threat of "denial of service" attacks, unauthorized access, or other security events.

Configuration

All Users of the Halloo Network are responsible for configuring their own systems to provide the maximum possible accountability. Halloo shall not be liable for any damage caused by such system configurations regardless of whether such configurations have been authorized or requested by Halloo. For example, Users should ensure there are clear "path" lines in news headers so that the originator of a post may be identified. Users should also configure their Mail Transport Agents (MTA) to authenticate (by look-up on the name or similar procedures) any system that connects to perform a mail exchange, and should generally present header data as clearly possible. As another example, Users should maintain logs of dynamically assigned IP addresses. Users of the Halloo Network are responsible for educating themselves and configuring their systems with at least basic security. Should systems at a User's site be violated, the User is responsible for reporting the violation and then fixing the exploited system. For instance, should a site be abused to distribute unlicensed software due to a poorly configured FTP (File Transfer Protocol) Server, the User is responsible for re-configuring the system to stop the abuse.

Complaints

In most cases, we will notify our Customer(s) of complaints received by us regarding an alleged violation of this Policy. You agree to promptly investigate all such complaints and take all necessary actions to remedy any violations of this Policy. We may inform the complainant that you are investigating the complaint and may provide the complainant with the necessary information to contact you directly to resolve the complaint. You shall identify a representative for the purposes of receiving such communications.

Privacy

Because the Internet is an inherently open and insecure means of communication, any data or information a User transmits over the Internet may be susceptible to interception and alteration. Subject to our Online Privacy Policy, we make no guarantee regarding, and assume no liability for, the security and integrity of any data or information a User transmits via the Service or over the Internet, including any data or information transmitted via any server designated as "secure."

Claims of Copyright Infringement

Please send any claims to the Halloo support team

Additional Terms and Conditions

The use of the Halloo Network by a Customer of Halloo is subject to the terms and conditions of any agreements entered into by such Customer and Halloo. This Policy is incorporated into such agreements by reference.

Complaints and Contact Information

Any complaints regarding prohibited use or other abuse of the Halloo Network, including violations of this Policy, should be sent to Halloo. Please include all applicable information that will assist Halloo in investigating the complaint, including all applicable headers of forwarded messages. Sites experiencing live attacks from Halloo Customers should call into our Customer Care Center (telephone 888-238-3822) to submit a complaint as quickly as possible. Describe the urgency of the situation should you need immediate attention. If you are unsure whether any contemplated use or action is permitted, please submit questions or comments to Halloo's support team

Covertly Recording Telephone Conversations

Halloo Covert Recording Policy

What can I record?

You can record inbound calls to our system for any extension in a plan with an auto attendant. The auto attendant has to notify the caller that the call may be "monitored or recorded". The notice has to play before the call gets transferred to the extension. This is a requirement in some states and for interstate calls, so to make things simple, we require it for all recorded extensions.

It is not legal to record outbound calls without the consent of all parties in all of the US states, so we do not provide any recording of outbound calls that you make to others.

The law is fairly complicated and differs from state to state. If any state changes their law to be stricter than the requirements above, then Halloo reserves the right to change our requirement without notice.

Halloo Spam Policy

What is Spam?

“Spam” is unwanted email, sent to people with whom you have no relationship or to people who have not specifically requested such communication. Certain types of newsgroup postings and mailing list messages can also be classified as spam, and are also prohibited by this policy. Junk email is a serious problem, and Halloo has zero tolerance for it.

Halloo Communications Does Not Condone Spam

Please do not send spam on behalf of Halloo. Complaints regarding spam will be dealt with seriously, and may result in the loss of referral credits, or even the cancellation of your account without refund. Halloo Communications will be the sole arbiter as to what constitutes a violation of this policy.
