b. Acceptable Use.
You agree to comply with all applicable laws in connection with the use of the Services, including the provision of any personal information and other Content to JOB ASSIST. You also agree not to access the Website or App in a manner that utilizes the resources of the Website or App more heavily than would be the case for an individual person using a conventional web browser. If your bandwidth usage exceeds reasonable levels, or significantly exceeds the average bandwidth usage (as determined solely by JOB ASSIST) of other JOB ASSIST customers, we reserve the right to immediately disable your account and/or throttle your usage until you can reduce your bandwidth consumption. Notwithstanding the foregoing, operators of public search engines may use spiders or other bots for the purpose of creating publicly available searchable indices of the materials on the Website.
c. JOB ASSIST Provisioned Phone Numbers.
Certain JOB ASSIST plans may include access to a company-specific phone number which may be used to send and receive SMS messages in connection with your business. For the avoidance of doubt, you will be solely responsible for the content and legality of any communications you transmit, collect, or store through this feature and you will indemnify JOB ASSIST in respect of any claims arising in respect of the same. Company specific numbers are non-transferable by you. On cancellation or termination of your subscription or the applicable subscription plan that enables access to a company-specific number, JOB ASSIST may reclaim and reallocate any company-specific number not currently linked to an active subscription in a tier that grants access to this feature.

You agree that JOB ASSIST has no responsibility or liability for the deletion or failure to store any data or other content maintained or uploaded by the Service. You acknowledge that JOB ASSIST reserves the right to terminate accounts that are inactive for an extended period of time. You further acknowledge that JOB ASSIST reserves the right to change these general practices and limits at any time, in its sole discretion, with or without notice.
