Terms
Last updated October 21, 2026
These terms cover your use of cyfr.tel, operated by Perkins Enterprises LLC (“we”). By creating an account you agree to them. Questions: admin@socom.systems.
The service
You set your own cell phone to forward the calls you miss or decline to your cyfr.tel number. Depending on your settings, a cyfrAI character answers unwanted callers, and everyone else reaches your voicemail. You choose the rules on your account page and can change them or turn forwarding off at any time.
Text message terms: cyfr.tel voicemail alerts
- What you get: texts with your new voicemails: who called, when, the start of the cyfrAI transcript and a private link to play the recording. The whole transcript is on your account page and in voicemail emails.
- How you sign up: sign in at cyfr.tel/account, add your cell number, and either check “By text to my cell” under Voicemails or tap “Text it to me” on a voicemail. Texts go only to the number you give. See the sign-up box and sample texts.
- How often: message frequency varies; about one text per voicemail you receive.
- Cost: message and data rates may apply. We don’t charge for the texts.
- Stop: reply STOP to any cyfr.tel text, or uncheck the box on your account page. You’ll get one text confirming you’ve stopped.
- Help: reply HELP, or email admin@socom.systems.
- Delivery: carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.
- Privacy: no mobile information is shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes, and your text-message opt-in and consent are never shared with any third party. See the privacy policy.
Your account
- Give accurate information and keep your password to yourself. You’re responsible for what happens in your account.
- Only forward calls from phone lines that are yours to forward.
- Don’t use cyfr.tel to harass anyone, to break the law, or to interfere with the service.
Calls, recordings and voicemail
- Calls a character takes and voicemails people leave are recorded so you can play them. Callers who reach a character are told the call is recorded.
- Voicemails you haven’t saved are deleted after 60 days; you can save up to 15.
- Each month includes a set number of character minutes. After they’re used up, calls a character would take go to your voicemail until the next month.
- Rules decide where calls go and can be wrong: a real caller may reach a character, or an unwanted one may reach your voicemail. Add the people you know as contacts so they always reach your voicemail.
Test calls to our demo line
- When we invite early-access members to try the characters by phone, they may call our demo line from the phone they add on their account page, up to the daily minutes we set. We may change those limits or end test calls at any time.
- Test calls are recorded, transcribed and reviewed by us and by cyfrAI to make the characters better. They’re never published.
- Don’t share real personal or financial information on a test call, and only add a phone that’s yours.
Pro: your own voice and characters
- Your own cyfrAI voice must be made from your own voice only, never anyone else’s and never a public figure’s, and starts with the consent line we ask you to read. We review every recording before a voice is made and may decline any of them.
- Your voice is used only for your own cyfr.tel characters. Delete it on your account page at any time.
- Character requests must follow the rules shown with the request form. We review every request before building it and may decline any request.
No guarantees
cyfr.tel is provided “as is”. We work to keep it running but don’t promise it will always be available, catch every unwanted call, or deliver every call, voicemail, text or email. Don’t rely on it for emergencies: emergency calls should always be made directly from your phone.
Liability
To the extent the law allows, we aren’t liable for indirect or consequential losses, and our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before it.
Ending service
You can stop at any time: cancel your subscription with Manage billing on your account page, turn off forwarding on your phone, and email us if you’d like your account closed. When a subscription ends, we hold your cyfr.tel number until the last day of that month, so you can restart and keep it. After that the number is released and may go to someone else. We may suspend accounts that break these terms.
Changes and law
We may update these terms and will tell account holders by email about important changes. Texas law governs these terms.
