Siccura Acceptable and Fair Use Policy

This Acceptable and Fair Use Policy describes acceptable use of and access to any Siccura services (which includes but is not limited to Siccura 360, SiccuraSafemail, SiccuraSafephoto, SiccuraSafepass). This Acceptable and Fair Use Policy is incorporated into and forms part of the Siccura Terms of Service read with the Siccura Privacy Policy. Any terms used in this policy will have the same meaning as the equivalent defined in the Terms of Service, unless the context requires otherwise.

We provide services for our users to safeguard and protect their communications and data. By accessing or using the services, you agree to the terms of this Acceptable and Fair Use Policyand will be held responsible for any violations hereof.  You agree that you are entirely responsible for any content that you post, submit, transmit, distribute or upload through our service. Any use or reliance on any content by you is at your risk, and we shall not accept any liability for any content sent by our users.

You agree that the content shared by other Siccura users with you can be recalled at any time by them. When the content is recalled by the Siccura user, it will be deleted from your Siccura application. However, an encrypted format of that communication will remain on the third party service you use, which you will not be able to read.

We take the safety of our users very seriously. We strongly urge everyone to report suspicious people and sensitive content when they come across it on Siccura. You can notify us of any suspicious users or objectionable content by contacting us via the “contact us” link within the Siccura along with a brief description of the problem faced by You.
