Presify Acceptable Use Policy
Template notice. This document is a first-pass template drafted by Claude. It has not been reviewed by an attorney. Engage qualified legal counsel before publishing it as a binding policy. This template is provided as a starting point only and is not legal advice.
Effective Date: June 4, 2026
This Acceptable Use Policy (the "AUP") governs the use of the Presify service (the "Service") operated by Presify, LLC, a Florida limited liability company ("Presify," "we," "us," or "our").
This AUP is incorporated by reference into the Terms of Service. By using the Service, Customer (the entity that signed up for the Service, "Customer" or "you") and Customer's Authorized Users agree to comply with this AUP.
1. Why This Policy Exists
The Service collects historical Microsoft Teams presence data for the purpose of producing reports and analytics for Customer's organization. This data, and the reports derived from it, can be sensitive. When used responsibly, the Service supports legitimate operational goals such as software license utilization analysis, capacity planning, contractor billing verification, and investigation of specific workplace concerns.
When misused, the Service can be used in ways that harm employees, violate applicable laws, or expose Customer to legal liability. This AUP describes the practices Customer must follow and the uses that are prohibited.
Customer is responsible for ensuring that all Authorized Users within Customer's organization comply with this AUP.
2. Customer Responsibilities
2.1 Required employee notices
Customer represents and warrants that, before enrolling any individual as a Monitored User, Customer has provided all notices to its employees, contractors, and other personnel that are required by applicable law for the type of electronic monitoring performed by the Service.
This includes, without limitation:
- Connecticut. Conn. Gen. Stat. § 31-48d requires written or electronic notice to all employees who may be subject to electronic monitoring, posted conspicuously in a place readily available for viewing.
- New York. N.Y. Civ. Rights Law § 52-c requires employers to provide written notice to all employees upon hiring of any electronic monitoring of telephone conversations, email, or internet usage. Employers must also post the notice in a conspicuous place.
- Delaware. Del. Code Ann. tit. 19, § 705 requires employers to provide notice to employees of monitoring of telephone, email, or internet usage.
- Other states. Additional states and localities may impose similar requirements. Customer is responsible for compliance with all applicable jurisdictions.
Customer is solely responsible for determining which notices apply and for providing them. Presify does not provide legal advice regarding employee monitoring notice requirements.
2.2 Legal basis for monitoring
Customer represents and warrants that it has the legal authority to monitor each individual enrolled as a Monitored User. This includes ensuring that monitoring is consistent with:

Customer represents that the individual signing up for the Service has authority to consent to the collection of presence data from Customer's Microsoft Tenant on behalf of the organization and its personnel.
2.4 Use of reports
Reports generated by the Service are statistical analyses derived from presence data. Customer agrees that:
- Reports will be used for legitimate operational, business, or investigatory purposes
- Reports will not be the sole basis for any adverse employment action against any individual
