2. DESCRIPTION OF THE SERVICES


Second Phone Number is a service that helps professionals and businesses to organise and communicate with clients. This service is available via mobile apps on Android and iOS platforms.

Second Phone Number provides:

TRIAL MODE
Users receive a free phone number just after install of the app. Start sending and receiving text and photos from the main screen instantly. If a user needs a specific area code, Second Phone Number offers phone numbers at an affordable price.
Users can receive replies only if they have initiated the conversation. Random people cannot text you if you have not contacted them in the first place.
Users start with free credits to test the Second Phone Number app, after that they need to buy more credits.

PREMIUM MODE
Users have their own numbers. Users can receive replies even if they have not initiated the conversation.

CONTENT FILTERING
Second Phone Number is designed for business use cases. In order to comply with regulations and guidelines we use content filtering and generic filters to evaluate the messages by assessing the probability that the messages are legitimate or spam/hate/illegal.

DISCLAIMER ABOUT RECORDING CALLS
In the United States, there are laws and regulations at the federal and state level that apply to recording calls, including California’s Invasion of Privacy Act and similar laws. Certain federal and state laws require that you have the consent of at least one of the participants before recording a call. Other states have laws that require you to obtain consent from every participant before recording a call. There are also laws outside the United States, such as in the European Union, that require you to get the consent of participants before recording a call.
You are solely responsible for obtaining express consent from your clients to record phone calls via Second Phone Number. You agree to document this consent and show us this information in the event of a compliance audit or formal complaint. You guarantee that your clients have granted you express consent to record their phone calls. If Second Phone Number suspects that the clients have not given you express consent, it reserves the right to take any action it thinks appropriate in the case of non-compliance, including but not limited to cancellation of the account.
