21. VIOLATION OF TERMS AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES

Please report any violations of the Terms of Service, by flagging the posting(s) for review, or by emailing to:

tosprivacy@callferret.com

Our failure to act with respect to a breach by you or others does not waive our right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches.

You understand and agree that, because damages are often difficult to quantify, if it becomes necessary for CallFerret to pursue legal action to enforce the Terms of Service, you will be liable to pay CallFerret the following amounts as liquidated damages, which you accept as reasonable estimates of CallFerrets' damages for the specified breaches of the Terms of Service:

  1. If you post a message that (1) impersonates any person or entity; (2) falsely states or otherwise misrepresents your affiliation with a person or entity; or (3) that includes personal or identifying information about another person without that person's explicit consent, you agree to pay CallFerret one thousand dollars ($1,000) for each such message. This provision does not apply to messages that are lawful non-deceptive parodies of public figures.
  2. If CallFerret establishes limits on the frequency with which you may access the Service, or terminates your access to or use of the Service, you agree to pay CallFerret one hundred dollars ($1000) for each message posted in excess of such limits or for each day on which you access CallFerret in excess of such limits, whichever is higher.
  3. If you send unsolicited email advertisements to CallFerret email addresses or through CallFerret computer systems, you agree to pay CallFerret twenty five dollars ($25) for each such email.
  4. If you post Content in violation of the Terms of Service, other than as described above, you agree to pay CallFerret five hundred dollars ($500) for each Item of Content posted. In its sole discretion, CallFerret may elect to issue a warning before assessing damages.
  5. If you aggregate, display, copy, duplicate, scrape, reproduce, or otherwise exploit for any purpose any Content (except for your own Content) in violation of the Terms of Service without CallFerret's express written permission, you agree to pay CallFerret three thousand dollars ($3,000) for each day on which you engage in such conduct.
  6. If you scrape, spider, or use any automated means to access the CallFerret.com service in a manner which sends more request messages to the CallFerret.com server in any given period of time than a typical human would normally produce in the same period, you agree to pay CallFerret 1 thousand dollars ($1,000) per 50 pages accessed.

Otherwise, you agree to pay CallFerret's actual damages, to the extent such actual damages can be reasonably calculated. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Terms of Service, CallFerret retains the right to seek the remedy of specific performance of any term contained in the Terms of Service, or a preliminary or permanent injunction against the breach of any such term or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in the Terms of Service, or any combination thereof.
