Data Ownership

- SIP.US acknowledges the importance of data protection and privacy laws and commits to complying with such laws in all jurisdictions where it operates. This compliance includes handling personal data according to the laws and acting as a data processor when required.

Data Portability

- SIP.US supports local number portability (LNP), which allows customers to keep their existing phone numbers when switching service providers, provided they remain in the same geographic area. This is in line with the Federal Communications Commission’s rules on number portability.

- The process of porting a number to SIP.US can be initiated through their control panel, and SIP.US charges a low one-time fee of $10 per number, with discounts available for volume orders.

- SIP.US also provides the ability to manage and port existing phone numbers easily, ensuring a seamless transition and continuity in business operations.

SIP.US offers flexible terms for scaling services up or down based on organizational needs. Businesses can easily add or remove channels without significant infrastructure changes. This scalability is facilitated through a straightforward adjustment of the service plan, allowing companies to adapt quickly to changing demands.

Contract Renewal

- No Contract Requirement: SIP.US operates on a prepaid basis without requiring long-term contracts. This approach allows users to avoid the complexities and commitments often associated with contract renewals.

Cancellation Terms

- Flexibility in Cancellation: Customers can cancel their service at any time through the online control panel. This flexibility is a key feature, ensuring that users are not bound by long-term commitments and can adjust their services based on current needs without facing penalties.

- No Partial-Month Refunds: It's important to note that there are no partial-month refunds for unlimited SIP trunks or DID numbers. This means that if a service is canceled mid-cycle, the user will not receive a prorated refund for the unused portion of the service period.

Additional Information

- Immediate Changes: Changes, including adding or removing channels or services, can be made immediately via the user-friendly online control panel, reflecting SIP.US's commitment to providing a responsive and adaptable service environment.
