(“LinkLive”, “we," or "us").
This Agreement becomes effective upon the execution of an Order between Customer and LinkLive. The person executing an Order on Customer’s behalf represents and warrants that they are authorized to enter into this Agreement on behalf of Customer.
1. Description of Services.-
- Scope of Services.

The scope of Services available to Customer may vary based on the level of Services identified in an Order.
- Customer Data. Subject to Customer’s compliance with the terms of this Agreement, Customer and its Authorized Users may capture or submit information, data, and other content, in any form or medium (“Customer Data”) to or through the Services.

Should Customer fail to notify LinkLive of a service move, then LinkLive, in its sole discretion, may immediately suspend any applicable Service(s) until such time as LinkLive processes a “move order” initiated by Customer. Failure to notify LinkLive of an intended service move may result in Service(s) being 911/E911 non-compliant, if otherwise applicable. Customer understands that said failure may cause incorrect routing of emergency services and any consequences of such rest solely with Customer. Additionally, Customer understands that continuation of Services with respect to any existing numbers may be restricted by the location of the moved service.
- Authorized Users. Subject to Customer’s compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, LinkLive hereby grants Customer a revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, limited right to access and use the Services during the Term solely for Customer’s internal business operations by Customer’s employees, consultants, contractors, customers and agents who are authorized by Customer to access and use the Services under the rights granted to Customer pursuant to this Agreement (“Authorized Users”).

As used herein, “Affiliate” means any other person or entity that directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, a party.
