FakeMyText will not be held liable to any third party claims and/or actions taken with respect to services offered.
The User agrees to notify FakeMyText immediately of any unauthorized use of its account or any other breach of security.

4. MEMBER PRIVACY
It is FakeMyText's policy to respect the privacy of the User. FakeMyText will not monitor, edit, or disclose any personal information about the User or the User's FakeMyText account, including its contents, without the User's prior permission unless FakeMyText has a good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (1) conform to legal requirements or comply with legal process; (2) protect and defend the rights or property of FakeMyText; (3) enforce this Service Agreement or protect FakeMyText's business or reputation, including without limitation upon termination, cancellation or suspension of this Agreement by FakeMyText; (4) respond to request for identification in connection with claim of copyright or trademark infringement by the User, or a claim by a third party that the User is using the Service in connection with an infringing, illegal or improper activity; or (5) act to protect the interests of the User or others.

THE USER HEREBY GRANTS FAKEMYTEXT THE RIGHT TO SEND THE USER COMMUNICATION VIA E-MAIL OF ANY UPDATES, UPGRADES, NOTICES, OR OTHER INFORMATION THAT FAKEMYTEXT DEEMS IMPORTANT FOR THE USER TO KNOW, RELATING TO THE SERVICE.
5.   ADVERTISING GUIDELINES: PREMIUM RATED SERVICES
This section is only applicable to Users who use the FakeMyText Premium Rate Service.
For the purposes of this section-
" Network Charges " refer to the tariff charged for the use of the Vodacom Network, e.g. SMS, MMS, USSD, GPRS etc;
" Content/Value Added Service Charges " refer to the tariff charged for the # (choose applicable word) result/message/event etc delivered by the # (insert relevant WASP service name);
This section regulates the manner in which the User must advertise their services
If the User does not advertise its service in the manner specified in these rules then FakeMyText will be entitled to withhold the monthly revenue for that service.   Revenue will continue to be withheld until the advertising has been remedied to the full satisfaction of FakeMyText. FakeMyText's decision shall be final and binding on the User. Notwithstanding the aforementioned penalty, FakeMyText reserves the right to suspend and/or terminate a service and/or this agreement in the event of a repeated breach of its terms.
As a User you are selling content to an end-client ("the client"). A contract of sale can only be valid if the buyer and seller agree on the price. Thus, at all times, when faced with a transaction a User must know the full retail price of what it is they are going to buy. FakeMyText will not tolerate hiding or obscuring the price so that the client is not fully aware of what they are going to pay.   To the extent that it is possible (e.g. on your websites and brochures) the User must include reference to the definitions at the top of this section.
The price stated to the client must state that it is VAT inclusive.
The User must advertise all costs related to the final consumption of the advertised service i.e. network charges as well as content charges.   For example if the service is for a polyphonic ringtone, which costs R3 by way of a premium rated SMS, which still has to be downloaded via WAP then the advert must state "R3 + download fees".
The client must be advised of the full retail price of the content. For example it is misleading to state that a polyphonic ringtone is R3.00, however in fact the client ends up using two R3 SMS's to get the content resulting in a net charge of R6. Therefore you must either state "R6" or "R3/SMS (2 SMS)."
The font size of the price of content must be in such a size that it is easily visible from the advert. The client must be able to view the price with very little effort.
The price must be located on the advert in such a place that it is easily visible to the client. Essentially the client must be able to see the price when looking at the advert without having to search the advert for the price.   The price may not be hidden in the terms and conditions.
The price may not be stated in some adverts for a service and not in others.
Where a client is given the option to unsubscribe for a service, only network charges should be charged to unsubscribe and premium content rates must not apply.
Where possible the material terms and conditions must be stated in the advert and only where it is not possible to do so, will incorporation by reference be permitted i.e. where reference is made to the terms and conditions being available on a website.
The User is not allowed to use the FakeMyText logo, trademark, slogan or any other device or form of intellectual property belonging to FakeMyText in your advertising without the prior written consent of FakeMyText.
In all advertising where it is possible to do so, the User's name must be stated so that the client is made aware that it is the User and not FakeMyText that is offering the User's service.   Expressions such as "offered by or bought to you by X (Pty) Ltd" are sufficient.
If the user is in violation of the terms and conditions then we will transmit the user details to the other party or the police.

6. MESSAGE AND OTHER LIMITATIONS
FakeMyText assumes no responsibility for the deletion or failure to store information. FakeMyText has set no fixed upper limit on the number of messages the User may send through the Service apart from how many units are left in the User's account; however, FakeMyText reserve s the right, at its sole discretion, to determine whether or not the User's conduct is consistent with the letter and spirit of the Service Agreement and may terminate the Service if the User's conduct is found to be inconsistent with the Agreement. Please see POINT 17 below for more information on procedure at termination of the service. FakeMyText may, in the future, with prior notification, limit the amount of storage space available to each Member.
The sender ID that may be sent as part of mobile text messages is not a guaranteed feature and may not be sent without any notification.
Although FakeMyText prides itself on speedy delivery of messages, messages may be delivered late due to queuing or network traffic. This will still result in the message being seen as "delivered"

.
7. MEMBER CONDUCT
Any unauthorized commercial use of the Service, is expressly prohibited. The User agrees to abide by all applicable local, national and international laws and regulations and is solely responsible for all acts or omissions that occur under its account or password, including the content of any transmissions through the Service.

i. Use the Service in connection with junk SMS messages, spamming or any unsolicited messages (commercial or otherwise);
ii. Harvest or otherwise collect information about others, including email addresses, without their consent;
iii. Create a false identity mobile phone header, or otherwise attempt to mislead others as to the identity of the sender or the origin of the message;
iv. Transmit through the Service, associate with the Service or publishing with the Service unlawful, harassing, libelous, abusive, threatening, harmful, vulgar, obscene or otherwise objectionable material of any kind or nature;
v. Transmit any material that may infringe the intellectual property rights or other rights of third parties, including trademark, copyright or right of publicity;
vi. Libel, defame or slander any person, or infringe upon any person's privacy rights;

7. FEES, PAYMENT AND YOUR RIGHT TO CANCEL
Fees. In consideration for the use of FakeMyText's services, the User shall pay to FakeMyText a transaction or subscription fee (as appropriate) for messages delivered or partially delivered using any available delivery method, at the applicable rate then in effect. FakeMyText may from time to time offer limited time "Free Trial" or similar promotions during which no transaction fees or reduced transaction fees shall apply. Such promotions are intended for Users to test the capabilities of the Service and/or for casual, personal use only. During such promotions, all provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
All fees are payable upfront. Failure to purchase credits upfront will result in suspension of the services. Upfront payment refers to a payment that is made within a reasonable time so as to allow FakeMyText to add the SMS credits to the User's account.
Payment. Transaction fees are due and payable at the time of or before FakeMyText delivers a message to the User's recipients, via every method of de livery based upon the billing plan selected by FakeMyText. Payment shall be deemed to have been made as soon as the fee is available in FakeMyText's bank account.
Credit Card Payment. If the User has elected to pay for the Service by credit card, and FakeMyText does not receive payment from the credit card issuer, the User agrees to pay all amounts due, immediately upon demand by FakeMyText. All amounts are pre-paid and the User agrees to payment and the Terms and Conditions of such payment, when such payment is made. FakeMyText reserves the right to come to other payment arrangements on a case-by-case basis. (Agreements with the credit card issuer govern use of the User's credit card, and the User must refer to that agreement to ascertain its rights and liabilities as a cardholder.) The User is charged in ZAR and conversion rates are worked out once a day against the EURO. This may change the sales price due to currency fluctuations. The final purchase amount is the amount reflected on the Credit Card holder's statement.
Termination or Cancellation by the User. The User is free to terminate or cancel this Agreement at any time, and for any reason; provided, however, for such termination or cancellation to be effective, the User must carry out such termination in accordance with the policies and procedures established by FakeMyText, which will be posted in the Billing Information section or similar location within the FakeMyText web site. Any questions concerning the appropriate method by which to cancel this Agreement, should be addressed to info@fakemytext.com
Should there be a cost increase AFTER the User has purchased message units from FakeMyText; FakeMyText will give the User 14 days' notice of such an increase, which will be applicable to such credits that are still in the User's message unit account. Within this notification period the User may decide to continue with the service and the said increase, or to suspend the service upon which FakeMyText will ref und the User to the value of any message unit credits that may be left over in the User's account.
The User acknowledges that FakeMyText is dependant on various telecommunications networks and institutions for the delivery of its messages and that FakeMyText may adjust its prices and offering, should the prices be adjusted due to reasons which are not in FakeMyText's control. FakeMyText undertakes to notify the User of such adjustments in writing, prior to implementing such adjustments. Should there be a cost increase AFTER the User has purchased message units from FakeMyText; FakeMyText will give the User 14 days' notice of such an increase which will be applicable to such credits that are still in the User's message unit account. Within this notification period the User may decide to continue with the service and the said increase, or to suspend the service upon which FakeMyText will refund the User to the value of any message unit credits that may be left over in the User's account. Should the User's account not have any credits left, the said account will automatically expire. The account will be re-activated upon payment for new message units. Any message units purchased must be used up within 120 days from the date on which it had been purchased. FakeMyText may extend this period on a case-by-case basis at its sole discretion.
Refunds for SMS message credits: The User can request a refund of monies paid to FakeMyText within 7 days of making any purchase of SMS message credits from FakeMyText, provided t hat there are enough credits in the User's account to be subtracted by FakeMyText, i.e. all messages sent will be subtracted from the User's account. Further to that the User will receive back the amount which fits in with the corresponding volume-option - i.e. on the cost-scale equivalent to the amount of message units sent. There is a 10% charge on all refunds.
Refunds for branding fees, licenses, monthly administration fees, and any other fee that the User pays to FakeMyText, which excludes all SMS mess age credit fees: no refunds will be made for any fees which are not related to SMS message credits.
Credit-based billing principles. FakeMyText is able to charge variable amounts of credits per message sent through its system. These variable amounts are published on FakeMyText's coverage pages from time to time, and FakeMyText charges the published rate when a message is sent through the system. The User may however select the bands or profiles which will apply to specific products, thereby defining the maximum charge per message. The User understands that the number of credits to a specific destination network may change due to various factors, and that FakeMyText may adjust these rates whenever it deems it necessary to do so. Should the User not have selected a specific band or profile that supports delivery to a specific destination, the User understands and accepts that messages sent may not be delivered to such destinations. Conversely, should the User have chosen specific bands which support a higher credit rate per message, and is not aware that a specific route at the time of sending the message to FakeMyText will be charged at the said higher rate, the User accepts that he/she/it will be charged at whichever rate was at that stage applicable to the desired destination network or MSISDN number.

10. MODIFICATION OF TERMS; TERMINATION, CANCELLATION, AND SUSPENSION
