As the customer of record for the telephone number(s), Txtwire owns the telephone number(s) assigned to you. Txtwire generally ports a telephone number at the request of a customer.

By way of example, and not as a limitation, You agree not to violate any provisions of the Acceptable Use Policy.

7.6 You represent and warrant that without Txtwire’s express written consent You will not use, and will not authorize any third party to use, any Public Software (as defined below) in connection with the Services in any manner that requires, pursuant to the license applicable to such Public Software, that any Txtwire Properties or Services be (a) disclosed or distributed in source code form, (b) made available free of charge to recipients, or (c) modifiable without restriction by recipients.
