  • Account Security: You are responsible for safeguarding your Windower configuration and any API keys or tokens associated with your use of XiSMS.
  • Legal Compliance: You agree not to use XiSMS for unlawful purposes or in violation of any FFXI terms of use.

4. SMS Usage & Charges

  • Carrier Fees: Standard SMS rates apply based on your mobile carrier and plan. XiSMS is not responsible for any text messaging charges you may incur.
  • Message Limits: XiSMS may impose limits on the number of messages sent per day to prevent abuse and ensure fair use.

You agree not to:

  • Use XiSMS to send spam or unsolicited messages.
  • Interfere with the proper functioning of the Service.
  • Attempt to reverse-engineer, hack, or exploit any part of XiSMS.

7. Service Availability

XiSMS is provided "as is" and "as available." We make no guarantees regarding uptime or delivery speed. We may suspend or discontinue the Service at any time without notice.
