(b) use reasonable endeavours to ensure successful delivery of messages sent by the Client using the SMS Service.

(g) the Provider takes complaints (whether from individuals, third parties, network operators, regulators (including the Information Commissioner’s Office, and any other public or enforcement authority) relating to the Client’s use of the SMS Service very seriously, and may suspend provision of the SMS Service if any such complaint is received; and h. it is advised to include its own contact details in messages sent using the SMS Service to ensure that any complaints are direct to the Client (and not to the network operator, the Provider or any third party), and the Provider reserves the right to remove telephone numbers from the SMS Service database in its sole discretion if a complaint is received with respect to that number.
5. The provisions of Clause 7.5 of the Conditions shall apply to the Provider’s processing of Client Personal Data as part of the SMS Service.

3. The Client:
a. warrants that it is authorised to allow the upload of the information contained in each File on to the Portals (including by having in place all necessary licences, authorisations and consents) and that it has in place a valid, enforceable, written agreement with each Portal provider before submitting Files to the Provider for transmission to the relevant Portal;

Identity Check Services
If the Client elects to receive the Identity Check Services, and subject to payment by the Client of the Identity Check Subscription Fees, the Provider shall make available to the Client the ability to authenticate the identity of an individual (“Applicant”) through identity checks which shall be carried out by Experian Limited (“Experian”) based on the Applicant’s Personal Data provided to the Provider, either by the Client or by the Applicant, for the purposes of using the Identity Check Services (“Search Data”).
The Identity Check Services include the following:
ID Hub The provision by the Provider to Client of a service whereby identity authentication scores are delivered to the Client in respect of Search Data received by or on behalf of the Client or from the Applicant.
Identity IQ The provision by the Provider to Client of an identity verification solution – this solution will corroborate Search Data, made up of answers provided by an Applicant based on certain data sources, against those data sources.
The Identity Check Services will provide the Client with results, reports and information from Experian (“Verification Information”).
Where the Client provides the Search Data directly to the Provider, the Client:
a. warrants that it shall notify each Applicant at the point of collection of the Search Data that:
i. a search will be carried out with Experian for the purposes of verifying the Applicant’s identity;
ii. Experian may check the details the Applicant supplies against any particulars on any database (public or otherwise) to which Experian has access in order to verify the Applicant’s identity; and
iii. Experian will retain a record of the search; and
b. shall not use the Identity Check Services if notification has not been provided to an Applicant in accordance with paragraph 4.a of this Schedule 7.
Where the Client instructs an Applicant to provide the Search Data directly to the Provider, the Client warrants that it has obtained all permissions and/or authority to enable the Provider to contact the Applicant for the purposes of carrying out the Identity Check Services and that such contact will not breach applicable law or regulation.
The Client:
a. shall not use, or allow others to use, the Identity Check Services or the Verification Information (or both) to provide authentication, fraud prevention or any other information‐based services to any other third party;
b. acknowledges and agrees that it shall make its own independent evaluation and decision on the suitability or otherwise of each Applicant based on all information that is or becomes available to it;
c. acknowledges and agrees that the Provider and Experian are not liable to it in relation to the Identity Check Services and that no warranties, representations or guarantees are made in relation to the Identity Check Services and/or Verification Information (except to the extent liability cannot be excluded by law);
d. warrants that it has a valid data protection registration in its own name and address which covers the processing for which the Verification Information may be used (“Valid Registration”) and that the Valid Registration is, at all times, displayed on the public register available on the website of the Information Commissioner’s Office (www.ico.gov.uk);
e. shall not use the Identity Check Services if, at any time, it does not have a Valid Registration; and
f. acknowledges and agrees that Experian may retain a record of searches carried out on an Applicant’s credit report and that the results of such searches will be visible to the respective Applicant only, and will not affect the Applicant’s credit rating.
The Provider reserves the right to suspend, alter, or cease the provision of, the Identity Check Services at any time without notice to the Client.
The Client acknowledges and agrees that the questions asked by the Identity Check Services may be subject to restrictions that apply to the data that is used by Experian to carry out the checks under the Identity Check Services, or may be subject to restrictions in the future. Such restrictions are imposed upon Experian by its data suppliers and/or law and regulation. Accordingly, in order to comply with these restrictions, the Provider is entitled at any time to remove from the Identity Check Services certain types of questions.
If the Client is receiving a version of the Identity Check Services that uses the full electoral roll in order to ask certain types of question, the Client warrants and represents that it shall only use the Identity Check Services for purposes consistent with meeting any obligations contained in the Money Laundering Regulations 1993, the Money Laundering Regulations 2001 or any rules made pursuant to section 146 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000.
In order for the Provider to provide the Identity Check Services to the Client (and in order for Experian to comply with the licence terms which British Telecommunications plc and/or other third party suppliers of telephone number data require), the Client agrees to the following:
a. the Client appoints Experian as agent under this Agreement for the purpose of using the Search Data to carry out directory enquiry searches for and on its behalf of it;
