Phone Care – Terms & Conditions

1. Never Out of Warranty

Phone Care, purchased separately, is a package to give you peace of mind over the reliability and dependability of the devices that we include.

What’s covered:

• Accidental damage – spill a cup of coffee in your phone and we’ll take care of it.
• Breakdowns – If the phone dies, we’ll send out a replacement.
• Electrical failure – Damage due to electrical storms and spikes.

What’s not covered:

• Unusual damage – get angry with the caller, throw the phone out of the window – that’s on you but, our sympathy is included – gratis.
• Fire, flood or insured loss – where another insurer covers your equipment, we’ll leave it to them.

With Reynwood Phone Care, unexpected costs are under control. Your monthly Phone Care Service Fee is all that you’ll need to commit to – no hidden surprises.

2. What about phones that I buy?

In many cases we can add Phone-Care to existing devices owned by you or bought from us directly – ask your client advocate for details.

1. Collection and Use of Personally Identifiable Information and CPNI

A. Personally Identifiable Information

Under the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (the “Communications Act”), we may collect personally identifiable information (described below) over a cable system without your consent if it is necessary to provide our services to you or to prevent unauthorized access to services or subscriber data and we may collect other information that you consent to our collecting and that we will use as you direct. Below is a description of the information that we may collect, using the system or otherwise, about our users in order to provide our services and to prevent unauthorized access to our services.

Personally identifiable information: In order to provide any of our services to you, we may need to collect data about you, including your name; home, e-mail and work addresses; home, cellular and work telephone numbers; social security number; driver’s license number; credit, credit card, debit card and bank information; billing and payment information; records of damage and security deposits; records of maintenance and repairs; the number of converters, cable modems or other equipment installed in your home or place of business (collectively, “Reynwood Equipment “); the number of television sets, telephones, computers and other equipment of yours that are connected to Reynwood Equipment or that receive the Reynwood Services (collectively, “Customer Equipment “); the location and configuration of Customer Equipment; the service options you have chosen; the programs, features and services you have utilized; identifying information associated with the Reynwood Equipment (e.g., a serial number and/or MAC address of each piece of equipment installed); performance history associated with the Reynwood Equipment; whether you rent or own your home or place of business (as this may impact installation issues); subscriber correspondence; records of violations and alleged violations of our terms of service; customer research and satisfaction data; and information from third parties that is commercially available, such as age, income and other demographic information.

We may remotely check the Reynwood Equipment and the Customer Equipment for purposes that include diagnostics and network security and maintain records of the results.

If you use a web-based email service, we do not collect any information regarding the emails that you send and receive. If you use email provided by Reynwood or your OLP, our system may automatically collect and log email header information. We have access to personally identifiable information about you and your data account, including the name and address associated with a given IP address or, possibly, one or more e-mail accounts. We may also have information about how often and how long you use our service, including the amount of bandwidth used; technical information about your computer system, its software and modem; and your geographical location. We do not disclose to others for their marketing or advertising purposes any personally identifiable information that may be derived from this collection. Your OLP may have its own privacy policies.

Our system, in delivering and routing Phone Service calls, may automatically log information concerning telephone numbers you call, telephone numbers from which you receive calls, the duration of such calls, the service features and functions you use, the frequency of such use and other CPNI for the uses described below.

The data that we collect from you, as described above, may be used, depending on the nature of the data, for various purposes such as the following: to make sure you receive the services you have requested; to make sure you are being billed properly for the services you receive; to send you pertinent information about our services; to maintain or improve the quality of the Reynwood Equipment and the Reynwood Services; to answer questions from subscribers (e.g., for troubleshooting); to ensure compliance with relevant law and contractual provisions; to market Reynwood Services and other products that you may be interested in; and for tax and accounting purposes.

 B. Customer Proprietary Network Information (“CPNI “)

We may, from time to time, use the CPNI generated in furnishing Phone Services to you to provide you with information about, and to market to you, communications-related products or services that are within the same category of service to which you already subscribe. For instance, we may use the CPNI generated in furnishing Phone Service to you to provide you with information about, and to market to you, other telephone service offerings.

We may, from time to time, use the CPNI generated in furnishing Phone Service to you to provide you with information about, and to market to you, communications-related products or services that are outside of the category of service to which you already subscribe. For instance, we may use the CPNI generated in our furnishing Phone Services to you to provide you with information about, and to market to you, data services. You have the right to restrict our use of your CPNI for such purposes. If you wish to do so, please notify us in writing at our main local office, which will be noted in your cable bill, by calling 611 from your Reynwood Phone. Please include your name, account number, telephone number and address on any written request.  If you do not notify us within 30 days of this notification that you wish to restrict our use of your CPNI, we will assume that you approve of our use of CPNI for this purpose.

We will not use your CPNI to offer products or services to you without your permission that the FCC classifies as non-communications related or that are offered by other companies or by joint ventures in which we participate. You may, for example, be asked during a telephone call with one of our customer service representatives for your permission to use your CPNI for the purpose of providing you with an offer. If you provide your permission orally, electronically or in writing, we will use or disclose the CPNI only for the duration of that telephone call in order to offer you additional services.

Please note that if you opt out or otherwise deny or restrict our use of your CPNI, it will not affect our provision to you of any Reynwood Services. Any permission or denial of permission to use your CPNI remains valid until such time as your Phone Services are discontinued or we receive your notice withdrawing permission.

2. Disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information and CPNI

Under the Communications Act, we may only disclose personally identifiable information covered by the Act without your prior written or electronic consent if: (1) it is necessary to render, or conduct a legitimate business related to, the services that are provided to you; (2) such disclosure is required by law; or (3) for mailing lists, subject to the conditions described below. We may also disclose personally identifiable information and CPNI when you consent to the disclosure. Below is a description of our disclosure practices.

In the course of providing Reynwood Services to you, we may disclose your personally identifiable information to our employees, related legal entities, agents, vendors acting under our direction, including repair and installation subcontractors, sales representatives, accountants, billing and collection services, and consumer and market research firms, credit reporting agencies and authorized representatives of governmental bodies. We may also disclose such information to advertisers and vendors for purposes of carrying out transactions you request. Upon reasonable request, personally identifiable information may be disclosed to persons or entities with an equity interest in our related legal entities when they have a legal right to inspect our books and records. Also, if we enter into a merger, acquisition or sale of all or a portion of our assets, your personally identifiable information may be transferred as part of the transaction.

In addition, if you receive our data service, information, including IP addresses, may be disclosed to third parties in the course of providing the service to you. Recipients of such information may include, in addition to those persons listed above, entities that provide content and/or services to us or your OLP.

Unless you object, the Communications Act also permits us to disclose limited personally identifiable information to others, such as advertisers and direct mail companies, for non-cable-related purposes, such as direct marketing. Under the Communications Act, these disclosures are limited to the following “mailing list information “: your name and address. In addition, we may add to this mailing list information commercially-available information about you that is obtained from third parties, such as your age, income, and other demographic or marketing information. Mailing list information does not include the extent of your use of a particular service, including the extent of your use of Reynwood or your OLP service, the nature of any transaction you make over Reynwood systems, or any information that constitutes CPNI. We may disclose or sell such mailing list information from time to time. If you wish to be removed from our mailing list, please notify us in writing at our main office, which will be noted on your bill, or by sending an e-mail to [email protected]. Please include your name and address on any such request.

In addition, we may disclose, in connection with the provision of services to you and pursuant to the consent you granted in your Subscription Agreement, the personally identifiable information described in Section 1 in order to fulfill transactions that you request, to personalize your online experience, as required by law (including as described in Section 3 of this Notice), and as otherwise necessary in the ordinary course of business. The frequency of such disclosures varies according to business needs.

If you are a Phone Services customer, we must disclose certain of your personally identifiable information and CPNI to 911 services and to you or your designee upon your express authorization. We will also disclose limited personal information to telephone companies so that your calls can be properly routed. When you dial a toll-free number, the party you are calling may identify your telephone number using a telephone network technology called Automatic Number Identification (ANI). FCC rules prohibit parties that receive calls on toll-free numbers from distributing these telephone numbers.

Your name, address and/or phone number are provided to those you call in connection with Caller ID functions. You may dial *67 to prevent display of your Caller ID. Dialing *82 resumes its display.

We will provide your name, phone number and address to directories and 411 services. If you subscribe to our Private Listing service, we will take reasonable precautions to ensure that your information is not provided, but we cannot guaranty that errors will not occur. If you would like more information on the Private Listing service, please contact your local Reynwood office.

3. Disclosure of Information to Governmental Entities and Other Legal Process

Federal law also requires us to disclose personally identifiable information to a governmental entity or other third parties pursuant to certain legal process. Generally, this process requires a court order and, if the order is sought by a governmental entity, you are afforded the opportunity to contest in court any claims made in support of the court order sought, and the governmental entity must offer clear and convincing evidence that the subject of the information is reasonably suspected of engaging in criminal activity and that the information sought would be material evidence in the case. However, there are exceptions to this general rule in areas including the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, which allows personally identifiable information to be obtained in some circumstances by governmental entities through a subpoena, warrant or court order; welfare laws, which allow state welfare agencies to obtain by administrative subpoena the names and addresses of individuals who owe or are owed welfare support; child pornography statutes, which impose an affirmative duty on us to disclose certain information upon knowledge; and counterintelligence laws, which require us to provide information based on National Security Letters. At times, laws like these or specific court orders may require that we not disclose to you the existence of demands for your personally identifiable information. We will honor these laws and orders. We will comply with legal process when we believe in our discretion that we are required to do so. We will also disclose any information in our possession to protect our rights, property and/or operations, or where circumstances suggest that individual or public safety is in peril.

4. Time Period That We Retain Personally Identifiable Information

We maintain personally identifiable information about subscribers for as long as it is necessary for business purposes. This period of time may last as long as you are a subscriber and, if necessary, for additional time so that we can comply with tax, accounting and other legal requirements. When information is no longer needed for these purposes, it is our policy to destroy or anonymize it.

5. Access to Records

Under the Communications Act, you have the right to inspect our records that contain personally identifiable information about you and to correct any errors in such information. If you wish to inspect these records, please notify us in writing and an appointment at our local business office will be arranged during our regular business hours.

6. Your Rights Under the Communications Act

We are providing this Notice to you in accordance with the Communications Act.  The Communications Act provides you with a cause of action for damages, attorneys’ fees and costs in federal District Court should you believe that any of the Communications Act’s limitations on the collection, disclosure, and retention of personally identifiable information have been violated by us. Your Subscription Agreement contains your agreement that, to the extent permitted by law, any such claims will be decided in arbitration and attorneys’ fees and punitive damages will not be available.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Notice, please contact us.

Number Porting Policy

Reynwood works with a third party carriers who, on our behalf, port telephone numbers in accordance with applicable Regulatory Rules and Industry Guidelines. Our third-party carriers require very specific and detailed information and requirements when completing a port request. Please be informed that you may be required to provide such detailed and specific information to complete a port request.
If you are porting your number in from another carrier, please follow the instructions for Inbound Number Porting. If you would like to port your Reynwood number out to another carrier, please follow the instructions for Outbound Number Porting.

1. Inbound Number Porting

• • YOU MUST KEEP YOUR PREVIOUS SERVICE ACTIVE IN ORDER TO PORT YOUR NUMBER TO REYNWOOD.
  • Reynwood will conduct a validity search to verify portability. A validity search will determine if your telephone number can be ported into Reynwood. Certain numbers are not supported by our regional calling network and/or certain providers will not port numbers, therefore, these numbers cannot be ported. If your number can be ported you will be directed to fill out a Letter of Authorization (“LOA”). If your number cannot be ported, Reynwood will notify you that your number cannot be ported.
  • Upon verification of portability, Reynwood will notify you that your number can be ported. You must then submit an LOA to Reynwood, authorizing your previous service provider to port your number to Reynwood. You will submit your LOA in PDF format via email or fax to Reynwood’s provisioning department as detailed on the LOA. Please be advised that if you do not fill out the information on the LOA properly, your porting request will be rejected. Most providers accept digital signatures on the LOA to port numbers; however, some providers require a handwritten signature on the LOA to port your number. If your previous provider requires a handwritten signature on the LOA, Reynwood will notify you via email and request that you fax or email us a copy of your signed LOA.
  • Depending on the type of number you are trying to port in, Reynwood may notify you via email that you are required to fax or email to Reynwood a copy of your bill from your previous provider to verify your customer and account information.

Toll free numbers: For toll free number porting requests, you must fax or email (i) a copy of your LOA with a handwritten signature and (ii) a copy of a billing statement from your previous provider.
Local and business numbers: For local and business number porting requests, you may be required to provide a copy of your billing statement and/or a copy of your LOA with a handwritten signature.

• If you would like to ensure that your port is processed as quickly and efficiently as possible, you may also upload, fax or email to Reynwood a copy of your CSR (customer service record). You may request a copy of your CSR from your previous provider. If you cannot obtain a CSR from your previous provider, you may request your previous provider to send a letter on company letterhead that lists your account number, billing telephone number, service location address and specific numbers you are porting.
• The following information must be listed on your bill, LOA or CSR to verify your customer and account information:
  Number(s) you are asking to port
  • Your Name
  • Address – both billing and service addresses
  • *if your address is a P.O. Box, please provide Reynwood with an additional physical location address where the number resides
• If there are additional numbers on your account with the losing provider other than the number to be ported, you must contact your previous provider’s porting department and tell them whether you intend to retire those numbers when canceling service.
• Reynwood will then submit your LOA to your previous provider and wait for approval to port your number. You will be notified by Reynwood via email if your previous provider requires additional information and/or corrections to your LOA before Reynwood can port your number.
• When Reynwood receives approval to port your number from your previous provider, we will begin porting your number.

Generally, inbound porting requests will be completed within ten (10) business days after Reynwood receives your LOA, provided that there are no issues with your LOA or otherwise. Please be advised that for small service providers, inbound porting requests can take up to thirty (30) business days to port. If you have not received response regarding your LOA within fourteen (14) business days or you have any questions regarding our Number Porting Policy, please contact Reynwood’s Provisioning department.

2. Outbound Number Porting

• YOU MUST KEEP YOUR REYNWOOD SERVICE ACTIVE IN ORDER TO PORT YOUR NUMBER TO YOUR NEW PROVIDER. Reynwood cannot guarantee that your Reynwood number will be held for porting if you cancel your Reynwood service prior to receiving confirmation that your number has been successfully ported.
• Request an LOA from your new provider.
• Submit your LOA to your new provider.
• Your new provider will notify Reynwood or our third party carrier of your number porting request and Reynwood will verify your account information. Reynwood requests that you pay all outstanding invoices and/or charges on your account before we port out your number. Reynwood will send an email notification to you of all such outstanding charges and any applicable early termination fees.
• Upon verification of portability, Reynwood will notify your new provider that your Reynwood number may be ported.
• You must notify Reynwood that your number has been successfully ported to ensure that your number is removed from our database.
• You must notify and confirm cancellation of your Reynwood service. After you confirm that your Reynwood service has been canceled, Reynwood will no longer bill you for Reynwood services. YOU MAY CONTINUE TO BE BILLED IF YOU DO NOT CANCEL YOUR REYNWOOD SERVICE AFTER YOUR NUMBER HAS BEEN PORTED.

Generally, Outbound porting requests will be completed within ten (10) business days after Reynwood receives your LOA from your new provider. If you have not received response regarding your port request within fourteen (14) business days or you have any questions regarding our Number Porting Policy, please contact Reynwood’s Provisioning department.

Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and 911

The following information relates to emergency services dialing and is an important part of the contract for VoIP service as provided by Reynwood Communications of NY/NJ inc. (“REYNWOOD COMMUNICATIONS”). Within said contract, signing the section “Agree to E911 Disclaimer” acknowledges that you have read, understood, and accept the limitations of REYNWOOD HOSTED VOIP SERVICE relative to emergency services & 911 dialing as described below.

PLEASE READ THIS INFORMATION REGARDING 911 VERY CAREFULLY. BY ACTIVATING AND PAYING FOR THE REYNWOOD HOSTED VOIP SERVICE, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE TO THE LIMITATIONS OF REYNWOOD COMMUNICATIONS 911 EMERGENCY DIALING SERVICE (“REYNWOOD E911 SERVICE”), AND UNDERSTAND THE DISTINCTIONS BETWEEN REYNWOOD E911 SERVICE AND TRADITIONAL 911 CALLS.

REYNWOOD E911 SERVICE DOES NOT WORK IF YOU FAIL TO REGISTER OR UPDATE THE REYNWOOD E911 SERVICE WITH YOUR CURRENT LOCATION.

REYNWOOD E911 SERVICE WILL NOT WORK IF THERE IS AN ELECTRICAL OR INTERNET SERVICE OUTAGE DUE TO ANY CAUSE.

REYNWOOD E911 SERVICE WILL NOT WORK IF YOUR SERVICE HAS BEEN CANCELLED BY YOU OR TERMINATED BY REYNWOOD COMMUNICATIONS.

YOU SHALL INDEMNIFY REYNWOOD COMMUNICATIONS FROM ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, LOSSES, DAMAGES, FINES, PENALTIES, COSTS, AND EXPENSES BY, OR ON BEHALF OF, YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY USER OF THE REYNWOOD HOSTED VOIP SERVICE RELATING TO THE FAILURE OR OUTAGE OF THE REYNWOOD HOSTED VOIP SERVICE, INCLUDING REYNWOOD E911 SERVICE.

All of REYNWOOD COMMUNICATIONS customers have access to Enhanced 911 (E911) service (“REYNWOOD E911 SERVICE”). With REYNWOOD E911 SERVICE, when you dial 911, your telephone number and registered address is simultaneously sent to the local emergency center assigned to your location, and emergency operators have access to the information they need to send help and call you back if necessary. Although they have access to this information, please be prepared to provide any information requested by the emergency operators, if possible. Emergency personnel do not receive your phone number or physical location when your 911 call is routed to a national emergency call center. Therefore, you must be prepared to give the operator your phone number and location and any other information that the operator might request. You authorize the national emergency call center to disclose your name and address to the third party or parties involved with providing emergency services to you, including, without limitation, call routers, call centers and local emergency centers.

Registration of Physical Location Required
Use of REYNWOOD HOSTED VOIP SERVICE is permitted only at the address to which it is registered. Use from an alternate location is strictly prohibited.

In addition, you are agreeing to cooperate with REYNWOOD COMMUNICATIONS’ efforts to provide you with REYNWOOD E911 SERVICE. For example, it is incumbent on you to confirm the accuracy of your physical address with REYNWOOD COMMUNICATIONS. For purposes of REYNWOOD E911 SERVICE, you may only register one location at a time for each phone line. Regardless of what address you register for a portable device, emergency calls you make from these devices will be routed to the REYNWOOD HOSTED VOIP SERVICE national emergency response center.

Notify All Users / Inform All Present.
You are responsible for informing any guests and other third persons who may be present at the physical location where you utilize REYNWOOD HOSTED VOIP SERVICE of the important differences in and limitations of E911 Service as compared with traditional 911 land line or cell phone service.

Disclaimer of Liability and Indemnification.
REYNWOOD COMMUNICATIONS does not have any control over whether, or the manner in which, calls using the REYNWOOD E911 SERVICE are answered or addressed by any local emergency response center.
