Audio Conferencing
The purpose of WestNet Learning Communications, under this agreement, is to provide conference calling services to clients. This will include the process of reserving the call, providing inbound access nationally and internationally, outbound access nationally and internationally, and connecting participants to prearranged conference calls.

The client will gain and prearrange this security prior to the call with the WestNet Learning conference center. WestNet Learning will undertake no extra security precautions unless the client has so requested.

Use of call taping features may subject the client to state or federal laws or regulations regarding the notification to conference call participants.

Charges will be billed based on the current agreed rates as amended from time to time. The client agrees to pay all charges when billed. Charges not paid within 30 days of the date of billing may be assessed a 1.5% per month finance charge and may result in termination of service. Credit card charges will be paid and guaranteed as stated in the applicants for service agreement.

The parties recognized the importance of the confidentiality of information delivered by the system and agree to take reasonable steps to limit access to the system by carefully following appropriate security procedures unless otherwise requested. On a routine basis, WestNet Learning employees monitor conferences for quality. All WestNet Learning employees are subject to secrecy and confidentiality agreements. Client agrees not to resell the service to a third party unless authorized in writing by WestNet Learning communications.


Warranty and Disclaimer: WestNet Learning shall use their best effort to ensure that the system is reliable and available to the client at all times provided.
