These terms apply to your use of the Developer Portal, including, without limitation, your use of First Orion Preview Materials and First Orion Developer Tools. These Developer Terms are also subject to the First Orion Terms of Service on the First Orion Customer Portal (the “Customer Portal”), located at https://portal.firstorion.com ("Customer Portal Terms").

First Orion may modify these Developer Terms from time to time as our business changes and technology evolves.

Use of the Services and Portal Content after any changes shall constitute acceptance of the updated Developer Terms.

  1. GENERAL

    1. You may view some parts of the Developer Portal without a Customer Portal account. This provides you with information about and access to public information about First Orion’s branded communications services, application programming interfaces, code snippets, software development kits, and documentation to demonstrate what is required to initiate a branded communication program (INFORM® or ENGAGE®) through the Customer Portal. These materials are referred to herein as “First Orion Preview Materials.”
    2. The Developer Portal also provides a repository where certain First Orion business enterprise clients and prospective clients may obtain non-public, confidential information which is in addition to First Orion Preview Materials about and access to certain enhanced calling products, services, software, documentation, and other materials made available by First Orion from time to time for use in a production environment (collectively, the “First Orion Developer Tools” or “Developer Tools”). The Developer Tools include, but are not limited to: (a) software development kits (“SDKs”); applications, files, tools, programs, and utilities; plug-ins; application program interfaces (“APIs”); and sample code (including runtimes and libraries); (b) documentation and specifications, including SDK, API and application specifications, data, and other code, including concepts, designs, programming concepts, flow charts, guides, graphics and images; and (c) marketing materials and information pertaining to First Orion’s branded communications products and services which a business may consume through the Customer Portal. In order to access the Developer Tools, you must have, or set up, an account on the Customer Portal and acknowledge and accept the Developer Terms.
    3. The First Orion Preview Materials and Developer Tools are collectively referred to herein as the “Portal Content.”
    4.
