- General Terms
By creating or having an account created on your behalf, you confirm that you are at least 18 years of age at the time of registration. Registration may be carried out by yourself, a friend or relative, a CliqSMS staff member, or an authorized agent.
You warrant that all information provided during registration and account configuration is accurate and truthful. You agree to indemnify Cliq Systems Solutions against any claims or liabilities arising from the submission of false or misleading information.
Any attempt to register or operate an account using false data may lead to termination of your account without refund of your balance or data value at the time of closure.
You assume full responsibility for the details used during registration, including but not limited to your mobile number and sender name(s). The use of unauthorized sender names will result in account suspension. To lift the suspension, you are required to upload a valid government-issued ID and a corporate ID (where applicable) via your dashboard under Change Profile/Password.
- Sending and Delivery of SMS Messages
CliqSMS endeavors to send each SMS message to the appropriate gateway for delivery, provided the system is operational and no error message is displayed. Message delivery is managed by third-party operators and networks; therefore, successful delivery cannot be absolutely guaranteed.
However, once marked as sent from our system, the message is deemed to have been dispatched. If you believe delivery was unsuccessful despite a "sent" status, kindly provide the full message details for investigation with the concerned network.
