Faxes received in excess of the inbound 200-page limit are charged at $0.10 (or the local currency equivalent) per page. Faxes sent (outbound) are charged at the applicable per-page rate listed at the eFax Website starting with the first page sent. See paragraph (b) below for the definition of a fax page.
If you were issued a toll-free eFax Number, you will be charged $0.20 (or the local currency equivalent) per page received (inbound) starting with the first page received and will be charged the greater of $0.20 or the applicable per-page rate listed at the eFax Website for each page sent (outbound) starting with the first page sent. See paragraph (b) below for the definition of a fax page.
(2) eFax Plus:
If you registered for the eFax Plus service on or after May 31, 2011:
Unless you registered for a different plan on the eFax website, through an application, or with a Sales Representative, you may receive up to 150 fax pages (inbound) and may send up to 150 fax pages (outbound) within any thirty (30) day period, regardless of whether you are issued a local or a toll-free eFax Number. Faxes received in excess of the inbound 150-page limit are charged at $0.10 (or the local currency equivalent) per page, and faxes sent in excess of the outbound 150-page limit are charged at the applicable per-page rate listed at the eFax Website. See paragraph (b) below for the definition of a fax page.
If you registered for the eFax Plus service prior to May 31, 2011:
If you were issued a local (non-toll-free) eFax Number, you may receive up to 130 fax pages (inbound) and may send up to 30 fax pages (outbound) within any thirty (30) day period.

See paragraph (b) below for the definition of a fax page.
(b) Definition of Fax Page and Associated Terms:
Fax Duration Calculation
Most fax pages take less than sixty (60) seconds to transmit. However, for each transmission, the number of pages sent or received is calculated based on the greater of the actual number of pages or the number of full and partial 60-second increments of transmission or connection time, whether or not the transmission occurs or is completed (such as instances when someone answers the call or transmission is interrupted before completion). For example, a one-page fax with a transmission duration of 30 seconds is recognized as one page; and a one-page fax with a transmission duration of one minute and six seconds is recognized as two pages.
Outbound Page Calculations – Use Gift Pages or Service Credit
The number of outbound fax pages referenced in paragraph (a) of this Section 2, as included in the tiers of eFax service, is administered by applying a monthly outbound usage credit to your account and assumes that each outbound page is sent to a destination with an applicable per page rate of $0.10 (or the local currency equivalent). Therefore, your number of included outbound fax pages for a given thirty (30) day period may be less than the number specified for your tier of eFax service referenced in paragraph (a) of this Section 2 if you send to destinations with applicable per-page usage rates in excess of $0.10 per fax page. For example, if your service tier includes 150 outbound fax pages per thirty (30) day period, then an outbound service credit of $15.00 (or the local currency equivalent) will be applied to your account. If you send a five-page fax to a destination with an applicable per-page usage rate of $0.10, then your usage credit will decrease by $0.50 to $14.50. If you then send a five-page fax to a destination with an applicable per-page usage rate of $0.20, then your usage credit will decrease by an additional $1.00 to $13.50.
Unused inbound or outbound Services credits are valid in the month issued and expire at the conclusion of each applicable thirty (30) day period. Inbound or outbound Services credits have no cash value. Such credits do not roll over to the next thirty (30) day period, and you will receive no cash refund in the event any unused inbound or outbound Services credits remain in your account upon termination or closure of your account.
(3) eFax Free Service-Usage Terms:
You may receive up to 10 fax pages (inbound) within any thirty (30) day period. Your eFax Number is not local to your location and is selected by the Company in its discretion. You will not be able to select or change your eFax Number unless you upgrade to an eFax Pro or eFax Plus account.
If you registered for the eFax Free service via version 4.1 or higher of the eFax mobile phone fax app, you may send up to ten (10) fax pages (outbound) for a period of thirty (30) days from the date of your registration (the “eFax Free Send Period”). You may not send faxes using the eFax Free service beyond the eFax Free Send Period.
The Company provides the eFax Free service as an accommodation to you and reserves the right to terminate your eFax Free service at any time without notice.
In the event you receive more than ten (10) fax pages in any thirty (30) day period, or send more than ten (10) fax pages during the eFax Free Send Period, the Company, in its sole discretion, may offer to upgrade you to an eFax Pro or eFax Plus account or may terminate or suspend your eFax Free account with or without notice. Any failure by the Company to enforce the eFax Free fax page limits will not preclude the Company from later enforcing such limits, whether for past or current activity.
Unused inbound Services credits are valid in the month issued and expire at the conclusion of each applicable thirty (30) day period. Inbound Services credits have no cash value. Such credits do not roll over to the next thirty (30) day period, and you will receive no cash refund in the event any unused inbound Services credits remain in your eFax Free account upon termination or closure of your eFax Free account. The eFax Free fax page limitations may not be applicable with respect to eFax Numbers located in the following countries with the following prefixes, and any other eFax Numbers, as determined by the Company in its discretion:
- Austria: (0) 820
- Belgium: (0) 70
- France: (0) 820, (0) 821, (0) 825 or (0) 0826
- Germany: (0) 1805
- Ireland: (0) 818
- Italy: (0) 199
- Netherlands: (0) 84
- United Kingdom: (0) 70
Each customer, whether an individual or company, is limited to a single eFax Free account. If you or your company desire more than one eFax Number, then you must, and you agree to, upgrade to an eFax Pro or eFax Plus account.
Notwithstanding our Privacy Policy, the Company has the right to disclose your email address to the owner of the website domain associated with your email address in order to monitor compliance with, and enforce, the eFax Free service limitations. In addition, the Company is permitted to audit your use of the eFax Free service and any associated software by providing no less than five (5) days prior written notice of its intention to conduct such an audit at your facilities during normal business hours. If the Company ultimately determines, in its sole discretion and whether or not it has conducted an audit, that you have violated the foregoing limitations on the eFax Free service or any associated software, the Company reserves the right to immediately terminate or suspend your Services. You agree to pay the Company the amount you would have been required to pay for eFax Plus during the period of your non-compliance with the eFax Free service limits specified herein, plus the Company’s cost of conducting any audits that, in the Company’s sole discretion, reveal non-compliance.
3. Fax Storage
While your account is active, fax messages received via your eFax Number will be stored and displayed in your eFax Message Center for a limited time, not to exceed 12 months. If you are subscribed to the eFax Pro or eFax Plus service, you may choose to disable this feature by adjusting your user preferences. If you are subscribed to the eFax Free service, storage is limited to thirty (30) days after the fax is received.
Regardless of your level of service, you acknowledge that the Company may cease offering this feature or change its practices and/or limitations concerning this feature at anytime, including, without limitation, changing the maximum number of days that fax messages will be retained, the maximum number of messages stored at any one time and the maximum storage space allotted on the Company’s servers on your behalf. You further agree that the Company has no responsibility or liability whatsoever for any failure or malfunction of this feature, whether or not such failure prevents you from utilizing the feature, including but not limited to the storage or deletion of any faxes.
Upon account closure, all faxes connected with your account (including those stored in the eFax Message Center) will be immediately and permanently deleted. You agree that the Company has no responsibility or liability whatsoever for the foregoing.
4. Searchable Faxes
The Company will scan, perform optical character recognition and index the text of fax messages received via your eFax Number. The indexed text of these faxes will be searchable in your eFax Message Center for as long as the faxes are stored there. You acknowledge that the Company, at any time, may cease offering this feature, or change its practices, and/or apply limitations concerning this feature at any time.

6. Large File Send
You are provided a feature that enables you to provide third parties access over the Internet to files that are too large to send by email (“Large File Send”). Large File Send is available through the eFax My Account Website upon login. Files can be uploaded; recipient email addresses, added; and upon submission, recipients receive an email with a link to access the transmitted files.
Features of Large File Send vary by tier of eFax service as follows:
eFax Pro and eFax Plus Subscribers: You may upload a maximum of three cumulative gigabytes per each Large File Send submission (in a single file, or a combination of multiple files). You may designate up to five (5) recipients per submission. After submission, the system will email your recipients a link to the uploaded files. You may only access the uploaded files if you designate yourself as a recipient. Each recipient may download the transmitted file(s) a maximum of five (5) times over a period of ninety (90) days from your original submission.

You agree not to use or reference the Services for chain letters, junk fax or junk mail, spamming or any activity making use of distribution lists to any person who has not given specific permission to be included in such a process or on such list. You further agree not to attempt to gain unauthorized access to other computer systems. You shall not interfere with another customer’s use and enjoyment of the Services. You further agree not to use the Services to store (1) any “protected health information” (as such term is used in the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, Pub. L. No. 104-191) unless you are using the Company’s Enhanced Security feature, or (2) any other type of information that imposes independent obligations upon the Company.

9. Unsolicited Fax Advertisement/Spam Drop-Box Policy
a. Unsolicited Fax Advertisement Policy: The transmission of unsolicited fax advertisements is illegal in the United States under the Federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 (TCPA) ( https://transition.fcc.gov/cgb/consumerfacts/unwantedfaxes.pdf) and in the European Union under the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003, and is also illegal under the laws of a number of other countries, states and provinces. Distribution of unsolicited fax advertisements through the Services is prohibited and may be considered a material violation of this Agreement. The Company reserves the right to terminate the Agreement and pursue other legal remedies available to it; or any combination of these remedies. Notwithstanding the above, the Company’s distribution of advertising to its customers is not considered unsolicited fax advertising based upon your acceptance of this Agreement.
At the Company’s option and without further notice, the Company may use technologies and procedures, such as filters, that may terminate the transmission of such unsolicited fax advertisements without delivering them.
If you believe that you are in receipt of an unsolicited fax advertisement, and if the fax contains a telephone number, fax number or other contact information to “unsubscribe” from receipt of additional junk faxes, please unsubscribe accordingly.
You hereby acknowledge and agree that the Company has any and all rights (but no obligation) to assert any and all legal claims available against any third party as a result of your receipt of any unsolicited fax advertisements—including, but not limited to, claims under the TCPA and similar laws of any other country, state or province—and to the extent you do have any rights to bring any such claims, you hereby assign any and all such rights to the Company as consideration for its provision of the Services.
Because eFax Numbers may be reassigned to other customers in the event your account is canceled, and to ensure the best possible service for all customers, you are not permitted to “opt in” to receive, on your eFax Number, facsimile advertisements of the commercial availability or quality of any property, goods or services from persons with whom you have not established a business relationship.
b. Spam Drop-Box Policy: The Company does not permit its customers to use eFax Numbers as “drop-boxes” for responses to email or fax spam offers. If you believe you are in receipt of email, or fax, spam that uses an eFax Number as a “drop-box” for responses, and if the email or fax contains an email address, telephone number, fax number or other contact information to “unsubscribe” from receipt of additional messages, please unsubscribe accordingly. Please contact customer service if you believe your eFax Number has been used as a “drop-box.”The Company appreciates your assistance in enforcing and complying with these policies and looks forward to continuing to make your experience a positive one.
10. Termination
Either you or the Company may terminate your Services at any time, with or without cause, upon notice.
If you registered for the Services through the eFax Website or an eFax Sales Representative, eFax Plus and eFax Pro customers must follow the instructions provided at www.efax.com/cancel to terminate their account. In most cases, you can cancel easily online, or a customer service representative will assist you with canceling your account in accordance with the Company’s verification procedures; as such procedures may be changed by the Company in its sole discretion. Upon termination of your account, the Company will send you an email confirming that your account has been canceled. Your account will not be deemed canceled unless and until you receive this email. In order to cancel eFax Free service, you must either opt out of receiving promotional emails or visit www.efax.com/cancel to terminate your account.
If you registered for the Services using your account with Apple, you must cancel your auto-renewing subscription in your iTunes account settings. If you turn off Auto-Renewal, your subscription will close at the end of your current billing cycle. Uninstalling a software application will not cancel the subscription. If you uninstall the software application without canceling your subscription you will continue to be charged for the Services. For details please visit the Apple support website.
The Company reserves the right to terminate or suspend your Services at any time without prior notice or compensation for any reason; provided that the Company will attempt to confirm such termination or suspension by subsequent notice. The Company may automatically terminate or suspend your eFax Free account without notice.
Upon account closure, all faxes connected with your account (including those stored in the eFax Message Center) will be immediately and permanently deleted. In addition, you understand and acknowledge that in the event the account is later reactivated, your prior or preferred fax number(s) may not be available. You agree that the Company has no responsibility or liability whatsoever for the foregoing.
11. Customer Representations
You represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years of age or, as applicable, the age of majority in the country, state or province in which you reside, and that you possess the legal right and ability to enter into this Agreement.

16. Charges
a. Pricing Plans:
You agree to pay all charges for your use of the Services in accordance with the pricing plan you were offered and agreed to upon registering for the Services. The Company reserves the right to charge value-added taxes (“VAT”), sales or other taxes on the Services as it deems appropriate and the Company reserves the right to change prices or institute new charges for access to or use of the Services, including Discounted Services.
The Company may amend your pricing plan, including any charges thereto, at any time either by (a) posting pricing plan changes on the eFax Website, or (b) sending information regarding the pricing plan changes to the email address you provided to the Company. You are responsible for regularly reviewing such pricing information. Continued use of the Services or non-termination of your account, after changes are either posted or emailed to you, constitutes your acceptance of the prices as modified.
If you have questions regarding any charges that have been applied to your account, you must contact the Company’s Customer Service Department within thirty (30) days of the charge date. Failure to do so will waive your ability to dispute such charges. Failure to use your account will not be deemed a basis for refusing to pay any charges.
b. Payment for Services:
Your activation fee, and monthly, quarterly, bi-annual or annual service fees (as applicable), are payable in advance and are COMPLETELY NON-REFUNDABLE. You agree that for monthly subscriptions, the Company may submit charges for your monthly service fee each month; and for quarterly, bi-annual or annual subscriptions, the Company may submit charges for your service fee quarterly, bi-annually or annually in each case, without further authorization from or notice to you, until you provide prior notice (in accordance with the Company’s verification procedures, as may be established by the Company from time to time in its sole discretion) that you have terminated this authorization or wish to change your designated card(s). Such notice will not affect charges submitted before the Company reasonably could act on your notice. If you add eFax Numbers to an existing Services account, your first payment for such additional eFax Numbers may be prorated to coincide with the annual/monthly anniversary of your first eFax Number. You agree that the Company may (at its option) accumulate Services fees incurred during your monthly billing cycle and submit them as one or more aggregate charges during or at the end of each cycle, and that the Company may delay obtaining authorization from your card issuer until submission of the accumulated charge(s). This means that accumulated Services fee charges may appear on the statement you receive from your card issuer.
Your activation fee, usage charges, and monthly, quarterly, bi-annual or annual Services fees, and late fee, as applicable, must be made by the credit or debit card(s) designated by you for the Company use and transactions. If the payment method for your Services account is by credit or debit card and payment is not received by the Company from the card issuer or its agent or affiliate, you agree to pay all amounts due upon demand by the Company. Each time you use the Services, or allow or cause the Services to be used, you agree and reaffirm that the Company is authorized to charge your designated card(s). Your card issuer’s agreement governs your use of your designated card in connection with payment for the Services, and you must refer to such agreement (not this Agreement) with respect to your rights and liabilities as a cardholder.
c. Viewing Your Account Balance: To view your current account balance, along with billing details and any accumulated charges, please click on “Billing” after logging in to the eFax My Account Website.
d. Free-Trial Customers: If you subscribed to the Services pursuant to a special offer granting you a free trial period, your initial service fee will be PRE-AUTHORIZED AGAINST YOUR CREDIT CARD OR DEBIT CARD LIMIT (meaning the amounts pre-authorized will not be considered available credit or debit funds in such account). These fees will be immediately charged to your credit or debit card, without further authorization from you, upon the expiration of such free trial period, unless you provide prior notice (in accordance with the Company’s verification procedures, as may be established by the Company from time to time in its sole discretion) that you have terminated this authorization. Such notice will not affect charges submitted before the Company reasonably could act on your notice.
e. Pre-Paid Discounts: If you subscribed to the Services pursuant to a special offer granting a pre-paid discount for a fixed number of months, your pre-paid fees are payable in advance and are COMPLETELY NON-REFUNDABLE. In addition, your initial monthly service fee for the month immediately following your pre-paid period will be PRE-AUTHORIZED AGAINST YOUR CREDIT CARD OR DEBIT CARD LIMIT and will be immediately charged to your credit or debit card, without further authorization from you, upon the expiration of such pre-paid period, unless you provide prior notice (in accordance with the Company’s verification procedures, as may be established by the Company from time to time in its sole discretion) that you have terminated this authorization. Such notice will not affect charges submitted before the Company reasonably could act on your notice.
f. Usage Charges:
Additional charges apply when you exceed the number of inbound or outbound fax pages included in your eFax Services tier. Usage fees are payable in advance at a fixed amount as set from time to time by the Company, currently U.S. $10.00 or the approximate equivalent in local currency (the “Usage Prepay Amount”). You may choose to increase the size of your Usage Prepay Amount by logging into your account at the eFax Website or by contacting the Company’s Customer Service Department. The Usage Prepay Amount will be immediately and automatically charged to your credit or debit card without further authorization from you upon incurring usage in excess of the number of inbound or outbound fax pages included in your eFax service tier (or, in the event you are provided with a free usage credit, upon your depletion of such credit). Your Usage Prepay Amount will thereafter be reduced based upon your incurring usage fees, and each time your Usage Prepay Amount is depleted to a certain level (currently U.S. $2.00 or the approximate equivalent in local currency), another fixed Usage Prepay Amount in the same amount as the prior Usage Prepay Amount will be immediately charged to your credit or debit card, without further authorization from or notice to you.
Furthermore, in the event that the Company submits charges for your monthly, quarterly, bi-annual or annual service fee and those charges are rejected by your card issuer (or its agent or affiliate), you hereby authorize the Company to apply your Usage Prepay Amount to pay for some or all of your service fee or late fee due.
You agree that the Company may submit charges for the Usage Prepay Amount without further authorization from or notice to you, until you provide prior notice (in accordance with the Company’s verification procedures, as may be established by the Company from time to time in its sole discretion) that you have terminated or canceled your eFax Services or wish to change your designated card(s). Such notice will not affect charges submitted before the Company reasonably could act on your notice.
Upon you giving the Company notice that you have terminated or canceled your eFax Services, or in the event that the Company should terminate or cancel your eFax Services or account in accordance with the provisions herein, the unused portion of your Usage Prepay Amount (if any) will be applied toward any outstanding charges, and any remaining portion of your Usage Prepay Amount will be forfeited and non-refundable.
In addition, in the event you fail to incur usage charges on the Services for a period of six (6) months or longer, you will be deemed to have forfeited any remaining Usage Prepay Amount in your eFax account. In such event, the Company reserves the right to eliminate your remaining Usage Prepay Amount (if any) without notice.
g. Notification of Changed Billing Information: You must promptly notify the Company of changes to: (a) the account number, security code or expiration date of your designated credit or debit cards; (b) your billing address for the designated credit or debit card; and (c) the name of each minor whom you have authorized to use your Services account. You must also promptly notify the Company if your card is canceled for any reason, including loss or theft. In order to avoid Services interruptions caused by rejected credit or debit card charges, the Company reserves the right to update your credit or debit card details (such as expiration dates or new card numbers). You understand and agree that the Company is entitled to obtain such updated card details, store them and use them to bill charges.
h. Usage and/or Account Credit Balances. The Company may, from time to time, award you a credit applied to your eFax Services usage and/ or account balance, which is a non-refundable credit . eFax Services usage and/ or account credit balances have no cash value and will expire on the earlier of (i) termination of your account or (ii) 30 days after they are issued, and are subject to any additional terms associated with the credit offer.
i. Late Fees. An administrative late fee of $4.95 USD or $6.00 CAD (or the approximate equivalent in local currency) or the maximum amount permitted under and subject to applicable law, may be charged to your account each time full payment of your outstanding balance is not received by the payment due date. You agree that the Company may submit charges for late fees without further authorization from or notice to you, until you provide prior notice (in accordance with the Company’s verification procedures, as may be established by the Company from time to time in its sole discretion) that you have terminated or canceled your eFax Services, or wish to change your designated card(s). Such notice will not affect charges submitted before the Company reasonably could act on your notice.
17. Termination for Non-Payment
The Company reserves the right to suspend or terminate your account and associated Services, without notice, upon rejection of any credit or debit card charges or if your card issuer (or its agent or affiliate) seeks return of payments previously made to the Company when the Company believes you are liable for the charge. Such rights are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other legal rights or remedies available to the Company.
Upon account closure, all faxes connected with your account (including those stored in the eFax Message Center) will be immediately and permanently deleted. In addition, you understand and acknowledge that in the event the account is later reactivated, your prior or preferred fax number(s) may not be available. You agree that the Company has no responsibility or liability whatsoever for the foregoing.
18. Ownership
All programs, services, processes, designs, software, technologies, trademarks, trade names, inventions and materials comprising any portion of the Services are wholly owned by the Company, its affiliates and/or its licensors and service providers except where expressly stated otherwise.

19. Rules Regarding eFax Numbers
YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOU WILL HAVE USE OF THE eFAX NUMBER(S) PROVIDED AS PART OF THE SERVICES ONLY UNTIL THE END OF THE TERM OF YOUR AGREEMENT OR UNTIL THE COMPANY NO LONGER PROVIDES YOU WITH SERVICES UNLESS YOU SATISFY THE PROVISIONS IN SECTION 20 (a) BELOW. THE COMPANY IS GRANTING YOU THE REVOCABLE PERMISSION TO USE SUCH eFAX NUMBER(S) IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS AGREEMENT FOR THE LENGTH OF THE TERM OF THE AGREEMENT. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT THE COMPANY IS THE CUSTOMER OF RECORD OF ALL eFAX NUMBER(S) PROVIDED AS PART OF THE SERVICES AND, THEREFORE, THE COMPANY HAS CERTAIN RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO SUCH eFAX NUMBER(S), INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION CERTAIN RIGHTS RELATING TO PORTING OF SUCH eFAX NUMBER(S) (“PORTING” IS CAUSING OR ATTEMPTING TO CAUSE NUMBER(S) TO BE TRANSFERRED, SWITCHED OR OTHERWISE MOVED TO ANY OTHER SERVICE PROVIDER, TELEPHONE CARRIER OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY). AS THE CUSTOMER OF RECORD FOR ALL eFAX NUMBER(S), THE COMPANY HAS THE DIRECT RELATIONSHIP WITH THE TELEPHONE COMPANY THAT PROVIDES THE UNDERLYING TELECOMMUNICATIONS THAT SUPPORT THE SERVICES YOU RECEIVE FROM THE COMPANY. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT THE COMPANY IS NOT, ITSELF, A TELEPHONE COMPANY AND IS THEREFORE NOT UNDER ANY LEGAL OBLIGATION TO PERMIT YOU TO PORT ANY eFAX NUMBER(S) PROVIDED UNLESS YOU SATISFY THE PROVISIONS IN SECTION 20 (a) BELOW. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOU ARE EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED FROM CAUSING OR ATTEMPTING TO TRANSFER THE eFAX NUMBER ASSIGNED TO YOU TO ANY OTHER SERVICE PROVIDER, TELEPHONE CARRIER OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY UNLESS YOU SATISFY THE PROVISIONS IN SECTION 20 (a) BELOW. IN THE EVENT YOU VIOLATE THE FOREGOING PROVISION, YOU AGREE TO IMMEDIATELY RETURN THE eFAX NUMBER(S) TO THE COMPANY AND PAY THE COMPANY AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO U.S. $500 (OR THE EQUIVALENT IN LOCAL CURRENCY). YOU AUTHORIZE THE COMPANY TO CHARGE YOUR ACCOUNT CREDIT OR DEBIT CARD OR TAKE ANY OTHER MEASURES REQUIRED TO COLLECT THIS PAYMENT AND TO CAUSE THE eFAX NUMBER(S) TO BE RETURNED TO THE COMPANY. YOU AGREE THAT THIS PAYMENT REPRESENTS LIQUIDATED DAMAGES REFLECTING A REASONABLE MEASURE OF THE ACTUAL OR ANTICIPATED HARM, DAMAGES CAUSED AND ADMINISTRATIVE FEES INCURRED BY THE COMPANY FROM SUCH VIOLATION IN LIGHT OF THE DIFFICULTIES OF PROOF OF LOSS AND THAT THIS PAYMENT IS NOT A PENALTY. SOME NON-U.S. JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS TO BE PLACED ON YOUR RIGHT TO PORT THE eFAX NUMBER ASSIGNED TO YOU, SO SOME OF THESE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY IF THE eFAX NUMBER(S) ASSIGNED TO YOU IS LOCATED IN SUCH A JURISDICTION.
a. Telephone Numbers Ported In
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOU MAY BE PORTING IN CERTAIN TELEPHONE NUMBERS FROM YOU CURRENT TELECOMMUNICATIONS CARRIER(S) TO THE COMPANY’S TELECOMMUNICATIONS CARRIER(S) TO BE PLACED IN THE COMPANY’S NAME. IF YOU “PORTED IN” ANY TELEPHONE NUMBER(S), OR YOU ARE ENTITLED TO “PORT OUT” A TELEPHONE NUMBER UNDER NON-U.S. LAW, YOU MAY “PORT OUT” SUCH NUMBER(S) IN CONNECTION WITH TERMINATING YOUR ACCOUNT ONLY IF YOU SATISFY THE FOLLOWING REQUIREMENTS: (i) YOU PROVIDE WRITTEN NOTICE TO THE COMPANY OF YOUR INTENTION TO “PORT OUT” SUCH TELEPHONE NUMBER(S) NO LATER THAN THIRTY (30) DAYS AFTER THE DATE OF TERMINATION OF YOUR ACCOUNT (THE “PORTING NOTICE PERIOD”); (ii) YOUR NEW TELEPHONE CARRIER PROVIDES THE COMPANY’S TELEPHONE CARRIER WITH A DULY EXECUTED PORTING REQUEST PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION OF THE PORTING NOTICE PERIOD; (iii) YOU HAVE PAID THE COMPANY FOR ALL SERVICES PROVIDED TO YOU PRIOR TO THE DATE YOU PROVIDE NOTICE OF YOUR INTENT TO TERMINATE YOUR ACCOUNT; AND (iv) PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION OF THE PORTING NOTICE PERIOD, THE COMPANY HAS RECEIVED AN ADMINISTRATIVE FEE TO COVER ITS REASONABLE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH PROCESSING THE PORT IN AN AMOUNT OF U.S. $40 (OR THE EQUIVALENT IN LOCAL CURRENCY) PER TELEPHONE NUMBER. YOU HEREBY AUTHORIZE THE COMPANY TO CHARGE YOUR CREDIT OR DEBIT CARD IN THE APPLICABLE AMOUNT FOR SUCH ADMINISTRATIVE FEE. THE PORTING PROCESS CAN BE LENGTHY; IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO MAINTAIN YOUR SERVICES DURING THE PORTING PROCESS, YOU MUST MAINTAIN YOUR ACCOUNT IN AN ACTIVE STATUS AND NOT TERMINATE YOUR ACCOUNT UNTIL THE PORTING OUT IS COMPLETE. REGARDLESS OF WHEN THE PORT OUT IS COMPLETE, YOU WILL CONTINUE TO BE RESPONSIBLE TO PAY ALL APPLICABLE ACCOUNT FEES WITH RESPECT TO THE TELEPHONE NUMBERS UNTIL YOU FORMALLY TERMINATE YOUR SERVICE. IF YOU FAIL TO SATISFY ANY OF THE FOREGOING REQUIREMENTS, THE COMPANY SHALL REMAIN THE CUSTOMER OF RECORD OF THE NUMBER(S) AND YOU ARE EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED FROM CAUSING OR ATTEMPTING TO CAUSE SUCH NUMBER(S) TO BE TRANSFERRED TO ANY OTHER SERVICE PROVIDER, TELEPHONE CARRIER OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY. THE COMPANY ALSO RETAINS THE RIGHT TO RECLAIM THE NUMBER(S) FROM YOU AFTER THE NUMBER(S) ARE PORTED OUT IN CONTRAVENTION WITH THESE REQUIREMENTS AND TO CHARGE YOUR CREDIT OR DEBIT CARD THE U.S. $500 (OR THE EQUIVALENT IN LOCAL CURRENCY) IN LIQUIDATED DAMAGES SET FORTH ABOVE. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT EVEN IF YOU SATISFY THE REQUIREMENTS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 20 (a), TECHNICAL OR PROCEDURAL DIFFICULTIES OR INTERRUPTIONS MAY OCCUR WHEN ATTEMPTING TO PORT OUT THESE NUMBERS (E.G. WHEN NO PORTING AGREEMENT EXISTS BETWEEN YOUR AND OUR TELEPHONE CARRIER OR FOR ANY OTHER REASON) AND SUCH DIFFICULTIES OR INTERRUPTIONS MAY PREVENT YOUR NEW CARRIER FROM PORTING THE NUMBERS. THE COMPANY IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR SUCH TECHNICAL OR PROCEDURAL DIFFICULTIES OR INTERRUPTIONS AND YOU WILL RECEIVE NO REFUND OF YOUR ADMINISTRATIVE FEE.
b. Reassignment of Telephone Numbers
YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT FOLLOWING THE TERMINATION OF YOUR SERVICES FOR ANY REASON, THE eFAX NUMBER(S) ASSIGNED TO YOU MAY BE IMMEDIATELY RE-ASSIGNED TO ANOTHER CUSTOMER. YOU AGREE THAT THE COMPANY 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 CONTRACTUAL, TORT OR OTHER GROUNDS, EVEN IF THE COMPANY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF DAMAGES. YOU FURTHER UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT THE COMPANY MAY, FROM TIME TO TIME, NEED TO CHANGE OR OTHERWISE REMOVE THE eFAX NUMBER(S) ASSIGNED TO YOU (WHETHER DUE TO AN AREA-CODE SPLIT OR ANY OTHER REASON, WHETHER OUTSIDE OR WITHIN THE COMPANY’S CONTROL). YOU AGREE THAT THE COMPANY WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES (INCLUDING CONSEQUENTIAL OR SPECIAL DAMAGES) ARISING OUT OF ANY SUCH CHANGE IN OR REMOVAL OF THE eFAX NUMBER(S) ASSIGNED TO YOU, AND YOU HEREBY WAIVE ANY CLAIMS WITH RESPECT TO ANY SUCH CHANGE, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACTUAL, TORT OR OTHER GROUNDS, EVEN IF THE COMPANY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF DAMAGES.
c. No Right to Charge Third-Party Services to eFax Numbers
YOU AGREE THAT YOU ARE NOT AUTHORIZED TO CHARGE SERVICES PROVIDED TO YOU OR, AT YOUR REQUEST, TO THE eFAX NUMBER ASSIGNED TO YOU BY THE COMPANY AND THAT YOU WILL NOT REQUEST OR, OTHERWISE CAUSE ANY THIRD-PARTY SERVICE PROVIDER TO CHARGE ANY SUCH SERVICES TO SUCH NUMBER. ANY SUCH CHARGES WILL GIVE THE COMPANY THE RIGHT TO IMMEDIATELY TERMINATE OR SUSPEND YOUR eFAX ACCOUNT WITHOUT NOTICE.

This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be broadly interpreted and includes, but is not limited to, any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating in any way to the Services, the Company’s software, the eFax Website, the Agreement or any aspect of the relationship between you and the Company. You agree that, by agreeing to the Agreement, the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision, and that you and Company are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may bring an individual action in small claims court. This arbitration provision does not preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies, including, for example, the Federal Communications Commission. Such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against the Company on your behalf. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of this Agreement and the termination of your account.
b. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”). The Notice to the Company should be addressed to: Consensus Cloud Solutions, LLC, ATTN: Legal Department, 700 S. Flower St., 15th Floor, Los Angeles, CA 90017, USA (“Notice Address”). The Notice must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). If the Company and you do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or the Company may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by the Company or you shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which you or the Company is entitled. You may download or copy a form Notice and a form to initiate arbitration at www.adr.org. If you are required to pay a filing fee, after the Company receives notice at the Notice Address that you have commenced arbitration, it will promptly reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for greater than US$10,000.
c. The arbitration will be governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by the Agreement, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and Forms are available online at www.adr.org. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of the Agreement. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including issues relating to the scope and enforceability of this arbitration provision. Unless the Company and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place by video or telephone conference. If your claim is for US$10,000 or less, the Company agrees that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds US$10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. The arbitrator is not authorized to award punitive or other damages not measured by the prevailing party’s actual damages, and may not, in any event, make any ruling, finding or award that does not conform to the terms and conditions of the Agreement.
d. The Company may make a written settlement offer anytime before an arbitrator is selected. If the arbitrator issues you an award that is greater than the value of the Company’s last written settlement offer made before an arbitrator was selected (or if the Company did not make a settlement offer before an arbitrator was selected), then the Company will pay you the amount of the award or US$1,000, whichever is greater. Except as expressly set forth herein, the payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules.
e. YOU AND THE COMPANY AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and the Company agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims with your claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim.

O. Cookies and similar technologies (Cookie Policy)
Summary – Cookies and similar technologies
We may Process your Personal Data by placing or reading Cookies and similar technologies. For more information, please see our Cookie Policy below.
This policy provides detailed information about how and when we use cookies. This cookie policy applies to the eFax products or services websites that link to this policy or incorporates it by reference.
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a piece of data stored on your computer and tied to information about you. By using and browsing our Sites, you consent to the use by us and third parties of cookies and other technologies in accordance with this Policy.
What are the different types of cookies?
First party cookies are our own cookies set by our Site, controlled by us, and used to provide information about the usage of our Site.
Third party cookies are cookies from any other domain. Some of our business partners (for example, third-party advertisers) may use cookies on the Site, in emails or in our advertisements on other websites to allow them to deliver the services they are providing. In order to create a user-friendly experience, some of our third-party promotions and advertisements are designed to automatically transmit users’ information onto the third party’s landing page when you choose to “click” upon a third party’s advertisement or promotion. We do not control these third parties or their use of cookies. As such, this Policy covers the use of cookies by the Company and does not cover the use of cookies by any third-party advertisers. Please check the websites of those third parties for details on how they use cookies.
How long do cookies stay on your computer?
Two types of cookies may be used on the Site, session cookies and persistent cookies.
Session cookies are temporary cookies that remain in your browser or device until you leave the site; they are deleted from your device once you leave the Service.
Persistent cookies are small files stored on your hard drive until you delete them or until they reach their expiry date. These may, for example, be used to remember your preferences when you use the Site, recognize you on your return, and enhance your experience on the Site (see more about profiles below). Use of a persistent cookie is not linked to any personally identifiable information while on the Site except if you choose to store your user names and PINs so that you do not have to enter them each time you access your accounts. Then, a persistent cookie will be stored on your computer, which is linked to your account information. If you reject the persistent cookie, you may still use the Site but you will be limited in some areas of it.
How do we use cookies?
We may use cookies for the following purposes (either on our own or by using third party services):
Authentication and Preferences: Cookies can be used to recognize you when you visit our Sites, remember your preferences (such as languages and communication preferences), and customize your experience with using our Sites and Services.
Security: Cookies may enable and support our security features and to help us detect malicious activity.
Advertising: Cookies allow us to bring you advertising both on and off our Sites. We may also use a cookie to learn whether someone who saw an ad later visited and took an action on the advertiser’s site. Similarly, our partners may use a cookie to determine whether we’ve shown an ad and how it performed, or provide us with information about how you interact with ads. We may also work with a partner to show you an ad on or off our Sites, such as after you have visited a partner’s site or application.
Analytics: We use cookies to understand, improve, and research products, features, and services, including when you access our Sites from other websites, applications, or devices such as your mobile device.
Geo-Location Information: Some devices allow applications to access real-time location-based information (for example, GPS). Some photos or other contact you place within our Service may contain recorded location information. We may use this information to optimize your experience. Also, some of the information we collect from a device, for example IP address, can sometimes be used to approximate a device’s location.
Flash Cookies: We may, in certain situations, use Adobe Flash Player to deliver special content, such as video clips or animation. Flash cookies are stored on your device, but they are managed through an interface that is different from the one provided by your web browser. This means that it is not possible to manage Flash cookies at the browser level in the same way you would manage other types of cookies. Instead, you can access your Flash management tools from Adobe’s website directly.
Our List of Cookies may provide you with more information on the cookies used on our Sites. Note, the names of cookies, pixels and other technologies may change over time.
What other technologies do we use?
- Log Files: Like most websites, our servers use log files to analyze trends, administer our sites, track user’s movement in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. The log file information consists of IP addresses, browser type, browser language, referring URL, platform type, etc., and is not linked to identifiable personal information.
- Clear Gifs: Clear gifs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and we may use them to track the online movements of our users. Clear gifs are invisible on the page and are much smaller than cookies, about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. We may also use clear gifs in our HTML-based emails to let us know which emails have been opened by the recipients. This allows us to gauge the effectiveness of certain communications and the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns.
- Profile: We may store information that we collect to create a profile of our users. A profile is stored information that we keep on individual users that detail their viewing preferences. Consequently, collected information may be tied to users’ personally identifiable information to improve the content of the Site for users, improve our Services and provide new services that are likely to be of interest to users and to direct pertinent product updates and marketing promotions to users if they have opted in to receive those promotions. We do not share personally identifiable elements of a user’s profile with other third parties. User profiles are shared in aggregate form only.
- Do Not Track Response: Certain web browsers may allow you to enable a “do not track” option that sends signals to the websites you visit indicating that you do not want your online activities tracked. This is different from blocking cookies as browsers with the “do not track” option selected may still accept cookies. Right now, there is no industry standard for how companies should respond to “do not track” signals, although one may be adopted in the future. We do not respond to “do not track” signals at this time. If we do so in the future, we will modify this Privacy Policy accordingly. More information about “do not track” is available at www.allaboutdnt.org.
Can I Change My Cookie Preferences?
Browser settings allow you to choose whether or not to accept cookies or limit certain cookies. Most browsers also provide functionality that lets you review and erase cookies. If you use our Sites without changing your browser settings, we will assume that you are happy to receive all cookies on our Sites. Please be aware that if cookies are disabled, not all features of the Site may operate as intended.
Your mobile operating system may let you opt out from having your information collected or used for interest-based advertising on mobile devices. You should refer to the instructions provided by your mobile device’s manufacturer, but this functionality is usually available in the “Settings” section of your device. You can also stop us from collecting information through our applications by uninstalling our applications.
For more information about these specialized cookies and other technologies, and to learn more about behavioral advertising or to opt out of this type of advertising for some companies, you can visit http://www.networkadvertising.org or http://networkadvertising.org/optout_nonppii.asp.

Report Spam
Help Stop Unsolicited Fax Advertising
At eFax®, we’re dedicated to protecting your privacy and keeping fax spam out of your inbox. Our commitment to you is simple:
- We don’t sell or disclose your fax number, ever
- We will never send you any faxes
- We don’t sell or share your email or contact details
Help Us Block Spam Faxes
Under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991, it is a violation of Federal law to transmit an unsolicited advertisement by facsimile. This means that it is illegal to send a fax unless the recipient has expressly agreed to receive faxes from the sender, or the sender and receiver have an existing business relationship.
Despite our best efforts, you may receive unsolicited faxes on occasion. In order to assist us in our effort to lead the fight against unsolicited junk faxes, please take the following steps if you are in receipt of an unsolicited fax:
- If the unsolicited fax contains a telephone number or other contact details, please contact the sender at once and request to have your fax number removed from their list.
- if the sender persists, eFax Plus® and eFax Pro™ subscribers may contact eFax ® Customer Support and request another fax number.
Thank you for helping us stop illegal fax advertising.
