The foregoing limitation shall not apply to death or personal injury claims, or any statutory liability for intentional and gross negligent acts and/or omissions.

12. Disputes

IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU READ THIS ENTIRE SECTION CAREFULLY. THIS SECTION PROVIDES FOR RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION BEFORE A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR INSTEAD OF BY A JUDGE OR JURY. ANY ARBITRATION UNDER THESE TERMS OF USE WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. CLASS ARBITRATIONS AND CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS ARE NOT ALLOWED.

Subject to the following paragraph of this Section 12, all disputes between you and Hello Mobile and/or its officers, directors, employees, agents and affiliates must be resolved by final and binding arbitration. This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be given the broadest meaning under law and includes, but is not limited to, (i) disputes and claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of the relationship between you and Hello Mobile, whether based in statute, fraud, tort, contract, misrepresentation or any other legal theory, (ii) disputes and claims that arose before this or any prior agreement, and (iii) disputes and claims concerning the scope of this arbitration provision. The arbitration will be conducted by one arbitrator using the procedures described in this Section. The arbitration of any dispute shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and shall be governed by the AAA’s Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes, as modified by this Agreement, which are in effect on the date a dispute is submitted to the AAA. To the extent that such procedures differ from these Terms of Use, these Terms of Use shall govern to the fullest extent permitted by law. You have the right to be represented by counsel in an arbitration. In conducting the arbitration and making any award, the arbitrator shall be bound by and strictly enforce the terms of this Agreement and may not limit, expand, or otherwise modify its terms.

Before you take a dispute to arbitration, you must first write to us at: HELLO MOBILE TELECOM LLC, 499 E Sheridan Street Suite 400, Dania, Florida 33004 and give us an opportunity to resolve the dispute. Similarly, before Hello Mobile takes a dispute to arbitration, we must first attempt to resolve it by contacting you. If the dispute cannot be satisfactorily resolved within thirty (30) days from the date you or Hello Mobile is notified by the other of a dispute, then either party may contact the AAA in writing and request arbitration of the dispute. Information about the arbitration process and the AAA’s Arbitration Rules and its fees are available on the Internet at www.adr.org. The arbitration will be based only on written submissions of the parties and the documents submitted to the AAA relating to the dispute, unless either party requests that the arbitration be conducted using the AAA’s telephonic, online, or in-person procedures. Additional charges may apply for these procedures. Any in-person arbitration will be conducted at a location the AAA selects in Broward County Florida. Arbitrations under this Agreement shall be confidential as permitted by federal law. However, by filing for arbitration, you may elect to relieve both parties to the arbitration of confidentiality obligations.

Nothing in this Section 12 or otherwise shall preclude Hello Mobile from seeking any injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction for protection of Hello Mobile’s intellectual property rights or other proprietary rights.

These Terms of Use are governed by the internal substantive laws of the State of Florida, without reference to its conflict of the laws principles. No waiver of any of these Terms of Use shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or any other term or condition.

13. Revisions to Terms of Use

These Terms of Use may be revised, modified, altered or updated (collectively, “Modified Terms”) by Hello Mobile in the future at its sole discretion. Such Modified Terms shall be effective immediately upon the posting thereof on the Web site. Any use of the Web site by you after such posting shall be deemed to constitute acceptance of such Modified Terms.

14. Entire Agreement

These Terms of Use, as modified from time to time by Hello Mobile and including Hello Mobile’s Privacy Policy incorporated herein by reference, sets forth the entire understanding and agreement of the parties relating to the subject matter hereof, and it supersedes any prior or contemporaneous understandings of any kind or nature. By agreeing to these terms, you represent that you are not relying on any agreement, representation or warranty pertaining to the subject matter hereof that is not expressly set forth herein.

15. Severability

If any arbitrator or any court of competent jurisdiction declares any provision of these Terms of Use to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable as drafted, the parties intend that such provision be amended and construed in a manner designed to effectuate the purposes of the provision to the fullest extent permitted by law. If such provision cannot be so amended and construed, it shall be severed, and the remaining provisions shall remain unimpaired and in full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted by law. Each party acknowledges and agrees that any interpretation of these Terms of Use will not be construed against a party by virtue of its having drafted the provisions hereunder.

16. Digital Millennium Copyright Act

It is Hello Mobile’s policy to respect the intellectual property rights of others.

HEARING AID COMPATIBLE HANDSETS

When wireless devices are used near hearing devices (such as hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference, and wireless devices also vary in the amount of interference they generate.

The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings to assist hearing device users in finding wireless devices that may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all wireless devices have been rated. Wireless devices that are rated will have the rating displayed on their box together with other relevant approval markings.

The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the user's hearing device and hearing loss. If your hearing device is vulnerable to interference you may not be able to use a rated wireless device successfully.

M-Ratings: Wireless devices rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than wireless devices that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.

T-Ratings: Wireless devices rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are likely to be more usable with a hearing device's telecoil ("T Switch" or "Telephone Switch") than unrated wireless devices. T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings. (Note that not all hearing devices have telecoils in them).

Most phones that are rated T3 also have an M3 rating. Similarly, most phones rated T4 also have an M4 rating.

Hearing devices may also be measured for immunity to this type of interference. Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you find results for your hearing device. The more immune your hearing aid is, the less likely you are to experience interference noise from wireless devices.

HEARING AID COMPATIBLE HANDSETS

Model:	FCC ID:	HAC Rating:	Functionality Level
Motorola Moto e5	IHDT56XF2	M4, T3 (mostly tele-coil compatible)	4G LTE, camera, speakerphone, Wi-Fi

PLANS TERMS & CONDITIONS

These Terms and Conditions (“T&Cs”) are part of your service agreement with Hello Mobile Telecom LLC, including its affiliates, assigns, and agents (“Hello Mobile,” “we,” “us, or “our”) and constitute a contract under which we provide you Service under terms and conditions that you accept. Your service agreement (“Agreement”) with us includes (i) these T&Cs, (ii) our Privacy Policy, (iii) our Acceptable Use Policy, (iv) any subscriber agreement or transaction materials that you sign or accept, (v) the service plan(s) that you choose as set forth in our written services and transaction materials that we provide or refer you to during the sales transaction (if your service plan is not specifically set forth in any printed materials, the requirements and terms set forth in the current written services and transaction materials apply, excluding plan charges and number of minutes included in your service plan), (vi) any confirmation materials that we may provide to you, (vii) the terms set forth in any applicable coverage map brochures, and (viii) any other supplemental terms and conditions that we provide or otherwise make available to you.  In the event of a conflict between these T&Cs and any other materials that makeup the Agreement, these T&Cs shall govern to the extent necessary to resolve the conflict.

Please read these T&Cs carefully. They cover important information about our services provided to you (“Service”); your phone, handset, device, SIM card, data card, or other equipment or third party device used with our Service (“Device”); and any access and usage charges, taxes, fees, assessments, and other charges we bill you or that were accepted or processed through your Device (“Charges”). These T&Cs include terms regarding service plan changes and late payments, limitations of liability, privacy and resolution of disputes by arbitration instead of in court.

You and any authorized users on your account will have access to account information and may be able to make changes to the account. If you give your personal account validation information to someone, they can access and make changes to your account. Those changes will be binding on you. Authorized changes may require your agreement to new T&Cs.

1. Acceptance. YOUR AGREEMENT WITH HELLO MOBILE STARTS WHEN YOU ACCEPT. You represent that you are at least eighteen (18) years old or legally emancipated and you are legally authorized to enter into this Agreement. You accept your Agreement by doing any of the following: (a) giving us a written or electronic signature or telling us orally that you accept; (b) activating Service; (c) using your Service after you make a change or addition; or (d) paying for the Service or an “Hello Mobile Device”. IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO ACCEPT, DO NOT DO ANY OF THESE THINGS.
2. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration. HELLO MOBILE AND YOU EACH AGREE THAT, EXCEPT AS PROVIDED BELOW (AND EXCEPT AS TO PUERTO RICO CUSTOMERS), ANY AND ALL CLAIMS OR DISPUTES IN ANY WAY RELATED TO OR CONCERNING THE AGREEMENT, OUR SERVICE, DEVICES OR PRODUCTS, WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL, NON-REPRESENTATIVE, BASIS. This includes any claims against other parties relating to Service or Devices provided or billed to you (such as our suppliers, third-party) whenever you also assert claims against us in the same proceeding. Hello Mobile and you each also agree that the Agreement affects interstate commerce so that the Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply (despite the choice of law provision in Section 22). THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY IN ARBITRATION, AND COURT REVIEW OF AN ARBITRATION AWARD IS LIMITED. THE ARBITRATOR MUST FOLLOW THIS AGREEMENT AND CAN AWARD THE SAME DAMAGES AND RELIEF AS A COURT (INCLUDING ATTORNEYS’ FEES).

For all disputes, you must first give us an opportunity to resolve your claim by sending a written description and supporting documentation of your claim to the address set forth in Section 12 below. Hello Mobile and you each agree to negotiate your claim in good faith. If Hello Mobile and you are unable to resolve the claim within sixty (60) days after Hello Mobile receives your claim description and supporting documentation, you may pursue your claim in arbitration.

As an alternative to arbitration, Hello Mobile may choose to resolve billing disputes in small claims court in the county of your most recent billing address.  Hello Mobile and you each agree that if you fail to timely pay amounts due, Hello Mobile may assign your account for collection, and the collection agency may pursue, in small claims court, claims limited strictly to the collection of the past due amounts and any interest or cost of collection permitted by law or the Agreement.

Either you or we may start arbitration proceedings. You must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to our registered agent (see Section 12) to begin arbitration. The American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) will arbitrate all disputes. For claims of less than Seventy-five Thousand Dollars ($75,000.00), the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules will apply; for claims over Seventy-five Thousand Dollars ($75,000.00), the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules will apply. The AAA rules are available at www.adr.org. Upon filing of the arbitration demand, Hello Mobile and you will share equally all filing, administration and arbitrator fees for claims that total less than Seventy-five Thousand Dollars ($75,000.00). For claims that total more than Seventy-five Thousand Dollars ($75,000.00), the payment of filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules. An arbitrator may award on an individual basis any relief that would be available in a court, including injunctive or declaratory relief and attorneys’ fees. Puerto Rico customers: Refer to Section 11 for details of the Puerto Rico Telecommunications Dispute Procedure.

CLASS ACTION WAIVER. HELLO MOBILE AND YOU EACH AGREE THAT ANY PROCEEDINGS, WHETHER IN ARBITRATION OR COURT, WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR AS A MEMBER IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. Neither you, nor any other customer, can be a class representative, class member, or otherwise participate in a class, consolidated, or representative proceeding against Hello Mobile.

JURY TRIAL WAIVER. If a claim proceeds in court rather than through arbitration, HELLO MOBILE AND YOU EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.

1. No Refunds for Your Cancellation of Service Plans. You may cancel any Service plan that you pay for in advance at any time; provided that, except as otherwise required by applicable law, you will not receive any refund of amounts paid to us in connection with such Service plan (regardless of whether such plan is a 30 day Service plan or a multi-month Service plan).
2. Our Rights to Make Changes. This provision is subject to requirements and limitations imposed by applicable law and will not be enforced to the extent prohibited by law. Your Service is subject to our business policies, practices, and procedures, which we can change without notice. WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO CHANGE OR MODIFY THESE T&Cs OR ANY OTHER TERMS IN THE AGREEMENT AT ANY TIME AND YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY ALL SUCH CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS ON THE EARLIER OF WHEN WE (i) POST THEM ON OUR INTERNET WEBSITE, OR (ii) SEND THEM TO YOU (ELECTRONICALLY OR OTHERWISE). BECAUSE THESE T&Cs ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE AT ANY TIME, YOU SHOULD ALWAYS CHECK OUR WEBSITE FOR THE MOST CURRENT VERSION. IF WE CHANGE THE SERVICE FEE APPLICABLE TO YOUR SERVICE PLAN, YOU WILL HAVE 5 DAYS FROM THE DATE WE POST OR NOTIFY YOU OF THE REVISED SERVICE FEE TO TERMINATE YOUR SERVICE PLAN BY (i) contacting our customer service department at support@hellomobile.com, (ii) calling 1-888-954-3556 , or (iii) managing your account preferences on the Hello Mobile website.  IF YOU FAIL TO CANCEL YOUR SERVICE PLAN WITHIN THE 5 DAY PERIOD, YOU WILL BE DEEMED TO HAVE ACCEPTED THE RATE INCREASE.  ANY INCREASE IN TAXES, REGULATORY FEES OR ASSESSMENTS WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED AN INCREASE IN ANY SERVICE FEE AND WILL NOT ENTITLE YOU TO EXERCISE THE FOREGOING CANCELLATION RIGHT. 
3. Compatible Devices. You must use a supported, compatible Device to access the Hello Mobile network. Only certain phones and tablet computers are supported Devices. Hello Mobile will provide you with a list of supported Devices upon your request. Modems, bypass, gateways, automated relay devices and any other Devices used for commercial or re-direction purposes are not supported Devices and violate our Acceptable Use Policy. Failure to use a supported, compatible Device when accessing our network will result in immediate termination of your Service.
4. Service Availability. Coverage maps only approximate our anticipated Mobile coverage area outdoors; actual Service area, coverage and quality may vary and change without notice depending on a variety of factors including network capacity, terrain and weather. Outages and interruptions in Service may occur, and speed of Service varies. You agree we are not liable for problems relating to Service availability or quality.
5. Important Emergency and 9-1-1 Information and Emergency Alerts. When making a 9-1-1 call, always state the nature of your emergency and provide both your location and phone number, as the operator may not automatically receive this information. Hello Mobile is not responsible for failures to connect or complete 9-1-1 calls or if inaccurate location information is provided. 9-1-1 service may not be available or reliable and your ability to receive emergency services may be impeded. We or our network supplier may use a variety of information and methods to determine the location of a 9-1-1 call, including Global Positioning Satellites, our network supplier’s Mobile network, the street address you have provided us as your primary use location (“Primary Address”), or other information. Even with this information, an emergency operator may not be able to locate you in order to provide emergency services. Other third-party entities are involved in connecting a 9-1-1 call and neither Hello Mobile nor its network supplier determines the public safety agency to which your 9-1-1 call is routed. If you are porting a phone number to or from us, we may not be able to provide you with some Services, such as 9-1-1 location services, while the port is being implemented. If you are porting a phone number to Hello Mobile, it is your obligation and responsibility to make certain that all information forwarded from the port-out carrier is accurate and complete. If you dial 9-1-1 while outside the U.S., 9-1-1 services may not be available.

1. Service Plans.

General. Your Service will operate only after you have purchased and redeemed an Hello Mobile Service plan.  Please visit our website at www.Hello Mobile mobile.com for the latest information regarding our Service plans.

Charges. You agree to pay all charges we bill you or that were accepted or processed through your Device or on such other Devices connected with your account and as designated in your Service plan. For disputed charges, see Section 11. You agree to provide us with accurate and complete billing information and to immediately report to us all changes to your billing information.

Voice Usage.  Hello Mobile Service plans include a voice plan as part of your Service.  We round up any fraction of a minute to the next full minute. Airtime usage is measured from the time the network provider begins to process a call (before the phone rings or the call is answered) through its termination of the call (after you hang up) and the network disconnects.

Data Usage and Messaging. Hello Mobile Service plans include a data plan (“Data Plan”) as part of your Service.  Data usage is rounded up to the next full-kilobyte increment at the end of each data session.   For all Hello Mobile Service plans except the Hello Mobile plans, 1 gigabyte of data is equivalent to 1,024 megabytes.  For all Hello Mobile plans, 1 gigabyte of data is equivalent to 1,000 megabytes.  Your data usage includes, among other things, text, web browsing, instant or picture messages, and email whether read or unread, sent or received, solicited or unsolicited. We use filters to block spam messages, but we do not guarantee that you will not receive spam or other unsolicited messages, and we are not liable for such messages.  All data purchased with an Hello Mobile Service plan (both data that comes with a Hello Mobile Service plan and any additional data you purchase as an add-on), including Hello Mobile   plan roll-over data, will expire immediately upon termination of your Hello Mobile Service plan for any reason.

Permissible and Prohibited Uses. Your Data Plan is intended for Web browsing, messaging, and similar activities on your Device. Examples of prohibited uses can be found in Section 14 of these T&Cs and in our Acceptable Use Policy.

Data Usage Level. Hello Mobile has set a 30-day 4G data usage level (“Usage Level”) for each of its Service plans.  For purposes of these T&Cs, “4G” means minimum data speeds equal to the lesser of (i) an average of 1.0 mbps over a 30-day service term, or (ii) the average network speed in your market over a 30-day service term as dictated by Hello Mobile’s network supplier (over which Hello Mobile has no control).  Our network supplier measures your upload and download data usage (“Actual Usage”) to determine if your total Actual Usage, as aggregated over the applicable 30-day period (“Usage Total”), exceeds the 30-day 4G Usage Level for the Service plan you selected. Please note that “Actual Usage” includes all of your requests to upload or download data, whether or not such data is actually uploaded or downloaded, as well as network overhead. For example, if you request that an image be downloaded to your Device but travel outside of your network coverage area before the download is complete, such request will be included in your Actual Usage even though the image was never downloaded to your Device. If you purchased a Service plan that includes a finite amount of data in a 30-day Service period, your data will be suspended once you reach the 30-day data limit and reset upon the commencement of the following 30-day Service period.  If you purchased a Service plan that includes unlimited data and you exceed your Service plan’s 30-day Usage Level, Hello Mobile will reduce the speed at which you can send and receive data over the Hello Mobile network until the end of the applicable 30-day period. The initial reduction in your data speed depends upon your Service plan and can be found in our FAQs.  If you continue to send and/or receive a substantial amount of data (as determined by Hello Mobile in its sole discretion) after our initial reduction of your data speed, we may further reduce your data speed to 64 kbps.  Once you begin a new 30-day period in your Service plan, your Service plan Usage Level will be reset and your upload and download speeds will be restored. For example, if a customer purchases a Service plan that includes unlimited data service, but only includes up to 1 gigabyte of high speed data at 4G speeds during a given 30-day period, then the first gigabyte of data requested by that customer in that 30-day period will be provided at up to 4G speeds (subject to 4G network availability and the actual network speeds of Hello Mobile’s network supplier).  Any data uploaded or downloaded by that customer in excess of 1 gigabyte will be provided at reduced speeds not lower than 64 kbps. Please be aware that your Usage Level is much more likely to exceed your Service plan’s 30-day Usage Level if you use streaming video, or if you download significant quantities of music files, movies, software applications, or engage in other high-bandwidth activities.

New and existing customers can enable a customer-controlled feature (“Data My Way”) on qualifying unlimited data plans to better optimize their Data Plan, 4G Service, and high-speed data consumption. Qualifying plans that feature Data My Way allow customers to choose the maximum data upload and download speeds that will be applied to their Service when they are connected to the cellular network. For example, when Data My Way is enabled, streaming video optimization technology is automatically applied, and video is delivered at lower quality (typically 480p) rather than at a higher resolution (e.g. HD) better suited for larger screens, which helps customers stretch their Data Plans by reducing the amount of high-speed data consumed for streaming video. Data speed optimization is not applied when a device is on Wi-Fi and therefore all data, including video, will be delivered at available speeds. By accessing their account preferences on the Hello Mobile website, qualifying Data My Way customers can choose between one of three available data upload and download speed options, with delivery rates that range from up to 1.0 mbps to full network speed. When Data My Way is enabled, Hello Mobile will apply a default data delivery rate at its sole discretion and as available Customers can switch the speed of their Data My Way Service at any time during the applicable 30-day period and may apply Data My Way to a new Data Plan, an existing Data Plan, or a Data Plan add-on.

Protective Measures. To provide a good experience for most of our customers and minimize capacity issues and degradation in network performance, we may take measures including temporarily reducing data throughput for a subset of customers who use a disproportionate amount of bandwidth. If you use your Data Plan in a manner that could interfere with other customers’ service, affect our ability to allocate network capacity among customers, or degrade service quality for other customers, we may suspend, terminate, or restrict your data session, or switch you to a more appropriate Data Plan which may result in an increased cost. We also manage our network to facilitate the proper functioning of services that require consistent high speeds, such as video calling, which may, particularly at times and in areas of network congestion, result in reduced speeds for other services. Additionally, we may implement other network management practices, such as caching less data, using less capacity, sizing video more appropriately for a Device to transmit data files more efficiently, and deploying streaming video optimization technology. Streaming video optimization technology is intended to manage data usage on the network, reduce the risk of streaming video stalling and buffering, and reduce the amount of high-speed data consumption used for streaming video. Streaming video optimization improves streaming video reliability as well as makes room for other users to enjoy higher browsing speeds. The streaming video optimization process is agnostic as to the streaming video content itself and to the website that provides it. While most changes to streaming video files are likely to be indiscernible, the optimization process may minimally impact the appearance of the streaming video as displayed on your Device. These practices operate without regard to the content itself or the source of the content, and do not discriminate against offerings that might compete against those offered by us on the basis of such competition.  Streaming video optimization technology is automatically applied to Data My Way Service plans based on the applicable data upload and download speed option chosen by the customer, if such options are available.

Wi-Fi Features.  Hello Mobile, at its sole discretion, may make available Wi-Fi voice and text messaging services, i.e., the ability to originate and terminate calls and text messages over a Wi-Fi connection (“Wi-Fi Calling).  If offered by Hello Mobile, Wi-Fi Calling will only be available for Hello Mobile customers that (i) have a Wi-Fi capable Device with Hello Mobile supported Wi-Fi calling capability, (ii) have Wi-Fi Calling service provisioned on their account, (iii) have a compatible SIM card, and (iv) are connected to functioning third-party internet service.  Not all services available on Hello Mobile’s supplier’s network are available while using Wi-Fi Calling.  For example, emergency alerts may not be available with Wi-Fi Calling.  You acknowledge that calling 9-1-1 via Wi-Fi Calling uses the internet and operates differently than traditional 9-1-1 (see our complete 9-1-1 disclosure posted on our website at www.Hello Mobile mobile.com/911-disclosure).  For example, 9-1-1 may not work during power or internet outages or disruptions, or if internet or your Service is suspended.  Location information when using Wi-Fi Calling may be limited or unavailable.  If Hello Mobile makes Wi-Fi Calling available to you, you must provide us with your up-to-date, primary address.  If the location at which you primarily use Wi-Fi Calling changes, either temporarily or permanently, you must promptly update your address with Hello Mobile.  You may provide us with your primary address, or update your primary address, by contacting us at the email address, telephone number or mailing address specified in Section 12.  If you do not provide us with your primary address and update it promptly as described above, we or our network supplier may block your usage of certain Wi-Fi Networks.  When you call 9-1-1 over Wi-Fi away from your primary address, we and our network supplier may have no or very limited information about your location.  Neither Hello Mobile nor its network supplier is responsible or liable for anything related to your use of or inability to use any Wi-Fi Calling MADE AVAILABLE TO you, including, without limitation, any failure of emergency calls (whether 9-1-1 calls or otherwise).  Wi-Fi Calling may decrement Service plan minutes.  Most devices will not transition between Wi-Fi and the Mobile network.  Devices using Mobile connections may be vulnerable to unauthorized attempts to access data and software stored on the device.

CONTENT AND APPLICATIONS

APP Data Usages. Some Hello Mobile Plans also provide data services. Your use of data services ("Data Usage") occurs whenever your phone is connected to the network and is engaged in any data transmission, including but not limited to, (i) opening or using an internet browser or app in any way, including, but not limited to app installations and updates, (ii) sending, receiving, or downloading any type of content, including, but not limited, emails, documents, pictures, MMS messages or any other content, or (iii) if data access or a data connection is initiated in any other way or for any other purpose.

Hello Mobile is willing to grant you the right to use the Services only on the condition that you accept all of the provisions contained in these Terms and within our Privacy Policy. By using our Services, you acknowledge and agree that you have read and understand our Terms and Privacy Policy and accept them in their entirety.

Some apps, content, programs, and software that you download or that come pre-loaded on your Phone automatically and regularly send and receive data transmissions in order to function properly, without you affirmatively initiating the request and without your knowledge. For example, apps that provide real-time information and location-based applications connect to our network and send and receive updated information so that it is available to you when you want to access it. We will deduct all Data Usage from the amount of high-speed data provided by the Plan you purchased whenever your Phone is engaged in a data connection, including, any type of connection which you affirmatively initiate or those that run automatically in the background without your knowledge whether they are successful or not. The duration of your data connection and the associated Data Usage is not determined from the exact moment you press a button on your Phone. Data Usage may depend on the amount of data or content transmitted during a data connection and the amount of time it takes to send or receive the data or content being transmitted. If you cancel or attempt to cancel a data or content transmission in progress, or if the process is otherwise interrupted through no action on your part, you will still incur Data Usage. Unless you are using Wi-Fi, any Data Usage on your Phone, will count against your data balance.

For content downloads from the internet or an app store, you may incur a charge for the content you download (a "Content Charge") from the provider of the content you have purchased. Unless Hello Mobile is the provider of such content, you agree that Hello Mobile is not responsible for the purchase, download, transfer, installation, use, transmission failure, interruption, or delay, or any web content, app store, or an app you access or purchase. Any support questions related to third-party downloads, including, but not limited to web content and apps should be directed to the third-party provider and not Hello Mobile. When you use, download, or install web content and/or apps provided or sold by a third-party, you may be subject to separate terms and conditions, terms of use, privacy policies and other policies of the third-party. You agree that Hello Mobile is not responsible nor liable to you for any third-party content, advertisements, websites, app stores, or apps you may download or access using your phone.

If you visit or use any third-party website, app store, or app, the third party may access, collect, use or disclose your personal information or require that the network carrier disclose your personal information, including, your location information (if applicable). If you access or use any third-party apps while using Hello Mobile ’s Data Services, you agree and authorize Hello Mobile and the network Carrier to provide information related to such use. You understand that your use of a third-party app is subject to the third party’s terms and conditions and policies, including its privacy policy. You should refer to the third-party’s privacy policy for information regarding the use of information collected when you download, install, or use web content or applications from that third party.

Not all of the online content which is accessible to one using Hello Mobile Data Services is intended for children. In the event that you, as a legal guardian allow your child to use Hello Mobile ’s Data Services, you acknowledge that your child has the permission to use the Data Services including, without limitation, email and web browsing capabilities. You further acknowledge that as a legal guardian, it is your responsibility to determine whether using Data Services is appropriate for your child. If you browse the internet using Data Services, you agree that you are of the minimum legal age to visit certain sites and you agree not to visit any illegal sites.

Content and Applications. Your device comes preloaded with apps and software, you agree when applying for service with Hello Mobile that you will indemnify and hold harmless, Hello Mobile of all Liabilities for such preloaded software being installed on your device. You can purchase Content and Applications (for example, downloadable, streaming or networked applications, wallpapers, ringtones, games, productivity tools and video) ("Content and Apps") for and with your compatible Mobile device. Some Content and Apps that you can purchase with your Mobile device are not sold by Hello Mobile and for such Content and Apps, you can identify the third-party seller at the point of purchase. Hello Mobile is not responsible for such Content and Apps, including download, installation, use, transmission failure, interruption, or delay, or any content or website you may be able to access through the Content and Apps. Any support questions for such Content and Apps should be directed to the third-party seller identified at the point of purchase. When you download or install any Content and Apps sold by a third-party seller, you may be subject to license terms between you and the third-party seller and Content and Apps creator/owner. When you use, install, display, run, or listen to Content and Apps that you purchase from Hello Mobile, the Content and Apps are licensed to you by Hello Mobile and may be subject to additional license terms between you and the creator/owner of the Content and Apps. Whether purchased from Hello Mobile or a third-party seller, any Content and Apps you purchase are licensed for personal, lawful, non-commercial use on your Mobile device only. You may not transfer, copy, or reverse engineer any Content and Apps, or alter, disable or circumvent any digital rights management security features embedded in the Content and Apps. Content and Apps may not be transferable from one Mobile device to another Mobile device. You understand and agree that the Content and Apps contain the intellectual property of third parties. You understand and agree that the Content and Apps are protected by law (including copyright law) and are solely for your personal, non-commercial use.

Content & Apps may not be transferable from one Device to another Device. Some Devices or Content & Apps may continue to have contact with our network without your knowledge, which may result in additional charges, for example, while roaming internationally.

Hello Mobile is not responsible for any third-party content, advertisements, or websites you may be able to access using your Device.

We are not responsible for any transmission failure, interruption, or delay related to Content & Apps, or any content or website you may be able to access through the Content & Apps.

Roaming. Your Device may connect to another provider’s network (“Roaming”) even when you are within the Hello Mobile cov1-800-erage area. Check your Device to determine if you are Roaming. There may be extra charges (including long distance, tolls, data usage) and higher rates for Roaming usage, and your quality and availability of service may vary significantly.  Our Roaming charges and rates are subject to change at any time and any such changes are effective forty-five (45) days after the posting of same to the Hello Mobile web site.  Please check our web site frequently so that you are aware of our Roaming charges and rates and any changes thereto.

INTERNATIONAL LONG DISTANCE

International Calling

Depending on your chosen rate Plan, international calling may be available to you. International calls deduct minutes at the same rate as local and national calling. You may call cellular phones in the countries with the word “cellular” listed next to the name of the country. The countries where international calling is available are subject to change at any time without prior notice. In order to place an international call, you will need to dial the International Long Distance (“ILD”) access number and follow the instructions. Voice minutes deductions for international calls begin the moment the ILD access number is dialed and apply to dropped calls, misdialed numbers, and busy destination numbers. When placing international calls, you may experience connection failures more frequently than during calls made within the United States. Hello Mobile will not credit minutes deducted for unsuccessful calls. You will not be able to make or receive calls on your Hello Mobile phone when you are located outside of the United States, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, or Guam (the “Coverage Area”). Any attempt to make or receive calls when you are located outside of the Coverage Area could result in service deactivation and de-enrollment from the Hello Mobile Lifeline Program.

 Taxes, Fees and Surcharges. You are responsible for, and shall pay, the taxes, fees and surcharges set forth in Sections below (“Taxes and Surcharges”) in connection with your Service account. Such Taxes and Surcharges will be included in your Service account charges (a) at the time you order the Service and (b) each time there are any further charges to your Service account. Payment of Taxes and Surcharges is in addition to payment for the Service and will be billed to your credit card.

Regulatory Recovery Fee. The Regulatory Recovery Fee is assessed to help recover Hello Mobile’s costs to comply with various federal and state programs, taxes and fees including, but not limited to, (i) state and federal Telecommunications Relay Service Programs, (ii) Federal Universal Service Fund Program, (iii) international, federal, state, municipal, local and/or other governmental franchise, excise, public utility and other telecommunications taxes, fees and charges now in force or enacted in the future, and (iv) other regulatory reporting and compliance obligations imposed upon Hello Mobile in connection with providing the Service. For all Hello Mobile Service plans except the Hello Mobile plans, the Regulatory Recovery Fee is calculated as a flat per transaction fee of $0.50 for service charges of $10.00 or less, and $1.00 for service charges of $10.01 or more. For Hello Mobile   plans, the Regulatory Recovery Fee is calculated as a flat fee of (i) $1.00 per line credit per month, (ii) $0.50 on Hello Mobile   add-ons (e.g., additional data, call anywhere credit or roaming credit) of $10.00 or less, and (iii) $1.00 on Hello Mobile   add-ons of $10.01 or more; provided, however, that no additional Regulatory Recovery Fee beyond the $1.00 per line credit per month will be charged for Hello Mobile   add-ons when purchased with one or more line credits.  Although added to the overall charge, the Regulatory Recovery Fee is separate from the cost of Service and the Regulatory Recovery Fee shall not result in the purchase of any additional Service time.

Federal Universal Service Fund Fee. The Federal Universal Service Fund Fee is designed to recover Hello Mobile’s contribution to the Federal Universal Service Fund program. The Universal Service Administrative Company (“USAC”) establishes a quarterly contribution factor, and Hello Mobile charges its customers the then-applicable rate charged to Hello Mobile by USAC.

State Universal Service Fund Fees.  The State Universal Service Fund Fee is designed to recover Hello Mobile’s contribution to various state universal service fund programs.  Certain state agencies establish a quarterly, semi-annual or annual contribution factor, and Hello Mobile may choose to charge its customers to recoup the state universal service fund fees charged to Hello Mobile.

Sales and Use Taxes. Sales and use taxes are assessed to allow Hello Mobile to recover the cost of all federal, state, municipal, local or other governmental sales and use taxes now in force or enacted in the future, that arise as a result of your subscription to, use of, or payment for Hello Mobile Service. To determine sales and use taxes, we will use the street address you identified as your Place of Primary Use (“PPU”). The PPU for Puerto Rico must be in Puerto Rico. If you did not identify the correct PPU, or if you provided an address (such as a PO box) that is not a recognized street address, does not identify the applicable taxing jurisdictions or does not reflect the Service area associated with your telephone number, you may be assigned a default location for tax purposes. In the event of a disputed tax jurisdiction location being assigned, any tax refund must be requested within sixty (60) days of our notification to you that the tax has been assessed.

9-1-1 Fees. Each state, city, municipality, or county has specific charges that are levied for access to 9-1-1.  Determination of the applicable 9-1-1 charges depends on where you purchase Hello Mobile Service.  Hello Mobile may bill its customers for 9-1-1 charges.  Any such 9-1-1 charges are a monthly recurring charge assessed on a per line basis and will appear on your monthly invoice.

Your Right to Dispute Charges.

Unless otherwise provided by law, you agree to notify us of any dispute regarding your bill or charges to your account within sixty (60) days (twenty (20) days for Puerto Rico customers) after the date you first receive the disputed bill or charge. If you do not notify us of your dispute in writing with supporting documentation within this time period, you may not pursue a claim in arbitration or in court. Except for Puerto Rico customers and unless otherwise provided by law, you must pay disputed charges until the dispute is resolved. If you accept a credit, refund or other compensation or benefit to resolve a disputed bill or charge, you agree that the issue is fully and finally resolved. For unresolved disputes see Section 2 above. To contact or notify us, see Section 12. This paragraph is notice to Puerto Rico customers that payment of undisputed charges is due when stated on your bill, regardless of any dispute.
