If You should need to dial “911”, You agree to assist emergency personnel by stating the nature of the emergency promptly and clearly, including Your location and telephone number. You agree to inform all persons who may be present at the physical location where You utilize the Service of the conditions and limitations of the Service's 911-type dialling and the non-availability of traditional 911 services from Your Netspeak service.
