·Submitting Subpoenas and Civil Requests to Twilio

·This page provides information for an individual or an attorney seeking user data from Twilio Inc. in civil proceedings in the U.S or outside of the U.S. When Twilio Inc. receives requests for user data, we review them very carefully according to applicable state and federal laws and our terms of service and privacy policy.

·If you are a law enforcement agency seeking customer data, please contact Twilio's law enforcement requests team via Kodex: https://app.kodex.us/twilio/signin, or for more information visit: https://www.twilio.com/legal/law-enforcement-guidelines.

·Due to COVID-19, Twilio personnel are working from home and physical offices are closed. Accordingly, Twilio is unable to receive legal process via mail, express delivery, or couriers sent to Twilio's offices. If you intend to serve Twilio with legal process, please serve our registered agent, Corporation Service Company (CSC), through its appropriate office (see below), and send a courtesy copy via email to legalnotices@twilio.com to minimize any delay in our response to your request.

·I am a Twilio customer and have a Twilio Account, can I access my user data?

·Twilio's customers have access to their user data, including billing information, usage information, message logs, call logs, and content via Twilio's customer console.

·For the collection of message and call logs, there are two options:

  • 1The BulkExport API. Twilio's BulkExport API provides an efficient mechanism for retrieving all of your activity logs from the Twilio platform on an ongoing basis, or for one-off downloads.
  • 2Customer Support Request. Customers can log into their account via https://www.twilio.com/console/ and submit a customer support request. In this request the following information should be provided: Subject Line: Legal Request for SMS Logs and Content re [Customer Name] In the Comments field provide: Attention: Twilio Legal Department Account Owner Name: Account Owner Email Address: Account SID: Phone Number(s): Date Range: Description of data requested: see https://www.twilio.com/docs/sms/api/message-resource and https://www.twilio.com/docs/voice/api/call-resource for a description of message and voice properties. Upon receipt of the customer support ticket, an affidavit will be sent to the account owner confirming the request for customer data.

·What Types of Customer Information Does Twilio have?

·Phone numbers registered to Twilio are typically subleased to a Twilio customer. Some Twilio customers may then distribute that number to their own end user or subscriber. Twilio cannot identify whether our customer is directly using a phone number or has "resold" the number to their own end user as part of their application. Accordingly, in response to proper legal process, Twilio will provide you Twilio's customer contact information, so that you can obtain end user information from the Twilio customer.

·Other than our customer names, contact information, and types and length of service, the particular categories of other customer information that Twilio has depends on which Twilio products and services the customer uses. Twilio generally has information regarding our customers' usage of our products and services, such as how much our customer has used our particular product or service and may include such things as the origination and destination of calls or messages, and the duration of calls. In some instances, Twilio may also have the content of communications sent or received through our customers software applications. Please note that the law prohibits Twilio from producing in civil litigation certain information. See, e.g., 18 U.S.C. § 2702. Twilio makes much of its customers data accessible to its customers themselves to download, so Twilio encourages parties involved in legal proceedings to obtain Twilio's customer data directly from our customers whenever possible.
