Privacy and Protection of Personal Information
OpenPort25 processes personal data in accordance with our Privacy Policy which is available at Privacy Policy, which we may update from time to time. You are encouraged to regularly review our Privacy Policy.
If you are a customer and the Services involve the processing of personal data which is subject to the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679, the “GDPR” or similar legal or regulatory standard of a country outside the EU, OpenPort25 is a processor and you are the controller in relation to such personal data (as defined in the GDPR), which is processed pursuant to this agreement.
You retain control over the content of the information you submit through our Services, and as such the types of personal data that are subject to processing cannot be categorized by OpenPort25 in these terms and conditions. It is assumed such personal data may include all categories of personal data relating to customer’s, or its customer’s own clients, customers, suppliers, employees, other personnel and/or other data subjects.
You may notify OpenPort25 of the categories of data subjects or types of personal data to be incorporated into these terms by using the contact details set out in the privacy policy.
As processor, OpenPort25 shall, in relation to personal data (as defined in the GDPR) provided by you or generated arising from the performance of the Services under this agreement:
- Process such personal data in accordance with these terms and conditions and otherwise comply with your documented (including email) instructions in connection with such processing. Where such instructions are provided orally, we shall keep a record of these. If at any point, OpenPort25 becomes unable to comply with your instructions regarding the processing of personal data (whether as a result of a change in applicable law, or a change in your instructions, or for any other reason), OpenPort25 shall promptly:
- Notify you of such inability, to the extent permitted by applicable law; and
- Cease all processing of the affected personal data (other than merely storing and maintaining the security of the affected personal data) until such time as you issue new instructions with which OpenPort25 is able to comply.
- Ensure personal data are kept confidential;

- Take reasonable steps to ensure that all relevant OpenPort25 personnel, and any relevant subprocessors, have committed themselves to ensuring the confidentiality of all personal data that they process;
- Ensure that, in each instance in which OpenPort25 engages a subprocessor, it shall notify you and:
- Allow you a reasonable opportunity to object to the appointment of that subprocessor (and your authorisation is deemed to be granted if you do not object within thirty (30) days of being notified of the proposed subprocessor); and
- Enter into a binding written agreement with the subprocessor that imposes on the subprocessor the same obligations that apply to OpenPort25 under this agreement with respect to the processing of personal data; subject to compliance with the foregoing, you hereby generally authorize OpenPort25 to engage sub-processors in relation to the Services.
- At your request and sole expense, promptly provide you with all reasonable technical and organizational assistance (taking into account the nature and functionality of the Services) necessary to respond appropriately to requests from individuals to exercise their rights under the GDPR;
- At your request and sole expense, promptly provide you with all reasonable assistance necessary to enable you to: (i) notify relevant breaches of the GDPR to the relevant authorities and/or affected individuals; (ii) conduct data protection impact assessments, where required; and (iii) obtain any necessary authorizations from any relevant regulatory authorities;
- Delete (or, upon your request at or prior to termination, return) any personal data processed in the performance of the Services in OpenPort25’s possession within 180 days after the termination or expiry of this agreement, other than data in relation to which OpenPort25 is a controller (which will be processed in accordance with our privacy policy) and unless the applicable law of the European Union or an EU Member State requires otherwise;
- At your request and sole expense:
- Promptly provide you with all information necessary to enable you to demonstrate compliance with your obligations under the GDPR, to the extent that OpenPort25 is able to provide such information; and
- Allow for and contribute to audits, including inspections, conducted by you, your auditors or appointees, provided that such audit shall be during regular business hours, with reasonable advance notice to OpenPort25 and subject to reasonable confidentiality procedures.

- Notify you without undue delay in the event of:
- Becoming aware of any personal data breach; or
- Receipt of any correspondence or communication from any individual, regulatory authority or third party regarding the processing of personal data; and

If you live in a state where the laws prevent you from taking full responsibility and risk for your use of the Service, OpenPort25’s liability is limited to the greatest extent allowed by law. In no event shall OpenPort25’s liability exceed the amount of direct damages to the property or person caused by our negligence. OpenPort25 makes no express or implied warranties (including, but not limited to, warranties of title, noninfringement, and implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose), representations, or endorsements regarding the service or any third party material advertised, promoted, or made available through the service.
Furthermore, the service is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis – we do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that defects will be corrected.

You agree and accept that, by definition, access to the Internet and other communication media is associated with risks concerning authentication, data security, privacy, availability of services and other risks including the reliability of transmission. You agree to bear full and exclusive responsibility arising from such risks and consequences of the usage of OpenPort25’s Services that occur or originate from within your environment.
You acknowledge that OpenPort25 delivers email via major Internet Service and Network Providers (“ISNPs”) and can therefore only influence the delivery with respect to transmission of the email and SMS messages within the technical and policy constraints imposed by the ISNPs. OpenPort25 is responsible for the creation and sending of the message to the ISNPs, but it is not responsible for the delivery of the message to the recipient’s email or mobile inbox which remains your responsibility.
Email messages submitted via the Service will be transferred to the addressed recipients you designate, provided that the recipient’s ISNP can deliver the message. You acknowledge and agree that, depending on the recipient’s ISNP, it may not be possible to transmit the email message to the recipient successfully, particularly if the ISNP does not support the email address or mobile number provided or the ISNP refuses to deliver the messages for reasons of poor sending reputation and/or content deemed to be characteristic of unsolicited email message. OpenPort25 shall not be responsible for failure to deliver such email messages.
You agree to assume full responsibility for the content of any messages which are transmitted through the Service on your behalf. OpenPort25 shall be entitled to rely on all approvals and instructions you provide and you shall ensure that all users and other personnel designated by you to provide instructions or approvals have the requisite authority to do so on your behalf.
Indemnification
You agree to indemnify OpenPort25 and its officers, directors, employees, agents, distributors and affiliates from and against any and all third party claims, demands, liabilities, costs, or expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, resulting from your breach of any of the provisions of the OpenPort25 Terms of Service.

SMTP Relay Billing Terms
SMTP Relay service plans are based upon a term (i.e. monthly, quarterly, annually) subscription service that will automatically renew and charge the credit card of record for your account. The day of the month your service is activated will be the start date of each term. Billing occurs at the beginning of each term.
Each service plan is billed according to a defined limit on the number of emails that can be sent in any given month, known as the relay “quota” for that plan. Any unused email relays from the prior month will not carryover and will be lost. Every plan has a default setting to enable “overage” which is defined as the ability to continue sending emails even after you have reached the maximum quota limit for your plan at a price of 1.25x the pro-rated price per each email in your plan. If you desire to have overage disabled, simply contact support.
You can upgrade at any time during the month by contacting sales at +1 575 209 9375 or our support department at support@openport25.com. You may also downgrade or cancel your service plan at any time with a 30 day notice by contacting sales at +1 575 209 9375 or our support department at support@openport25.com.
Refund Policy
We offer a 30-day refund for unused services. Your refund will be the amount you paid for your first 30 days of service, less a 20% administration fee on, provided that during such 30 day period no emails were sent from the account and the account was not under a seasonal hold. Please note that all email senders terminated by OpenPort25 due to poor sending practices, including excessive, abusive emails or unsolicited mailing lists, will not be eligible for a refund.
