  • There will be a $40 fee for each reversed or cancelled payment.

You further agree not to transmit any material that encourages conduct that could constitute a criminal offence, give rise to civil liability or otherwise violate any applicable local, state, national or international law or regulation.
  • You are responsible for obtaining, installing and maintaining all hardware, software, and communications services necessary to receive internet email and to deliver the Service to the person or persons who you intend to receive it. We accept no responsibility for you being unable to receive or correctly deliver the Service due to any incompatibility, fault or incorrect configuration of your hardware, software or communication services.
  • The transmission of unsolicited fax advertisements is illegal under the Federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 (Download PDF) and a number of similar state laws. Distribution of unsolicited fax advertisements through the Services is prohibited. SRFax understands that receipt of such faxes can impair your use of our Services. Accordingly, SRFax intends to use legally available means to prevent distribution and receipt of unsolicited fax advertisements to or by our Customers. At SRFax option and without further notice, SRFax may use technologies and procedures, such as filters, that may terminate such unsolicited fax advertisements without delivering them. If you believe that you are in receipt of an unsolicited fax advertisement, we ask that you take the following two steps:
    1. If the fax contains a telephone number, fax number, or other contact information to “unsubscribe” from receipt of additional junk faxes, please do so; and
    2. Please file a complaint with SRFax by inserting the required information about the offending fax into an email, or use our contact form.
  • Your right to use the Services is personal to you. You may be either an individual or a corporation or business entity, but you agree not to resell the use of the Services.

 

Ownership

On termination of the Service we may allocate any SRFax Numbers to another customer without reference to you.

General Terms

  • The laws of the province of British Columbia, Canada, govern this agreement and your use of SRFax’s services. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be struck and the remaining provisions shall be enforced.
