II. USAGE ALLOWANCE LIMITATIONS

a. Voice Services. All voice services (including unlimited plans and plans with a defined number of minutes each month) may be used only in accordance with this Policy. All voice services are provided solely for live dialog between two individuals and as otherwise described in this Policy. Voice services include both attempted use (i.e. incomplete calls) and actual use of voice services. Voice services also include the use of some user initiated Services, such as voice mail, call forwarding and GroupTALK (Group Push to Talk), that are specifically provided by us (or our nationwide services provider partners) as part of your service plan. Voice services may not be used for any other purpose, including, but not limited to, providing conference calling services, monitoring services, data transmissions, transmission of broadcasts, or transmission of recorded material. If we discover that you are using a voice service in violation of your Customer Agreement and/or this Policy or in any other manner that we deem to be unreasonable, then we may, at our sole option, terminate your Services or change your service plan to a service plan that more appropriately covers your usage. In the event that we intend to take any of the above actions, we will provide you with prior notice, and you may choose to terminate your Customer Agreement without incurring any additional fees for termination.

b. Data Services. Data services on the System are intended for individual use only and may be used to access the Internet, email, or corporate intranet servers, or to send or receive graphics, games, music, sound, and other materials. Examples of data services include picture messaging, app usage, browsing the Internet, and using MOTOTALK™. Data services may not be used: (a) with server devices or host computer applications, or other systems that drive continuous heavy traffic or data sessions, including, without limitation, running software or other devices that maintain continuously active Internet connections when a computer's connection would otherwise be idle, or "keep alive" functions; (b) as substitutes or backups for private lines, dedicated data connections, or frame relay connections; (c) for accessing, or attempting to access without authority, the information, accounts or devices of others, or to penetrate, or attempt to penetrate, the System; (d) with "bots" or similar routines that could disrupt net user groups or email use by others or other applications that denigrate network capacity or functionality; or (e) with any other systems or applications that interfere with or disrupt the System or any other activity that adversely affects the ability of other individual users or systems to use either the System or third parties' Internet-based applications or resources including, but not limited to, excessive consumption of System or network resources (whether intentional or unintentional) and "denial of service" (DoS) attacks against another network host or individual user. Except as otherwise agreed by the parties (for example, subscribing to regional LTE tracking applications), data services on the System may not be used for: web camera posts or broadcasts, automatic data feeds, telemetry applications, peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing, automated functions, any other machine-to-machine applications, and WWAN or other applications or devices which aggregate usage from multiple sources prior to transmission. We also reserve the right with notice to you to restrict your usage of data services or terminate your data services if such usage, in our sole discretion, (a) adversely affects the System, network performance, or our ability to allocate equitable network capability among customers; (b) interferes with or degrades other customers' service; or (c) is otherwise not in compliance with this Policy.

c. Data Usage Allowances. To utilize data, you must subscribe to a data plan or a service plan that includes data services. Your data service usage allowance is governed by your rate plan. Please check your rate plan or contact Customer Solutions to determine your data limit. Unused monthly data does not carry forward to the next billing cycle. Data usage is rounded up to the next megabyte.

d. Roaming. Nationwide roaming outside of our Regional Service Area is provided by our nationwide services provider partners. Roaming may occur even if you are within our Regional Service Area. Use of Services when roaming is dependent upon our nationwide services provider partners support of applicable network technology and functionality. Availability and quality of coverage, and access to Services while roaming are not guaranteed. You agree your use of our Services is intended to be primarily within our Regional Service Area. You agree not to misuse or abuse roaming, which includes, but is not limited to, excessive roaming usage. We may, in our sole discretion, limit or terminate your Service, deny your continued use of roaming, or change your plan to one imposing roaming usage charges. In the event that we intend to take any of the above actions, we will provide you with prior notice, and you may choose to terminate your Customer Agreement without incurring additional fees for termination.
