Customer’s use of the Services may also include access to and use of software, services and/or applications which interact with the Services and which are provided by non-Webzy third parties, and, when applicable, those third-parties terms and conditions apply to Customer’s access to and use of such non-Webzy software, services and/or applications. Webzy is not liable to Customer for any loss or injury arising out of or caused, in whole or in part, by Customer’s use of any such software, services, and/or applications accessed through, or in conjunction with, the Services.
  1. Payment.
  • Payment Cycle and Cancellation. Except where otherwise indicated in the TOS, billing for the Services commences on the Start Date. Recurring charges for each month’s Services will be billed one month in advance. Billing is based on a 30-day cycle. Non-recurring and usage-based charges for the Services generally will be billed in the billing cycle following the transaction. Customer’s first bill for Services may include pro-rated charges for a partial monthly period prior to the Start Date. Upon termination, subject to applicable law, Customer’s effective date of cancellation will be the last day of Customer’s current billing cycle and Customer will receive Service until the end of Customer’s billing cycle (exceptions may apply to certain promotional periods and must be in writing). Customer will not receive a prorated credit or refund for any remaining days of Service in Customer’s billing cycle after termination. Customer’s Service will continue until the end of the bill cycle. A downgrade fee may apply if Customer makes changes to Customer’s Service within thirty (30) days of Service provisioning or later orders.
  • 9.2.    Promotions and Contingent Benefits. Customer may receive or be eligible for Benefits. Any and all such Benefits are provided to Customer so long as Customer continues to meet qualification requirements; provided, however, such Benefits may be modified or terminated at any time as set forth in these TOS or if Customer changes Customer’s Services. Unless otherwise set forth in Benefits materials, standard fees will be charged at the conclusion of the Benefits period or when Customer no longer qualifies for the Benefits.
  • 9.3.    Fixed Service Fee. Fixed Service Fees are identified in the Quote or Change-order. The Fixed Service Fee for the first month of Service shall be due and payable prior to the Start Date. Customer’s first bill for Fixed Service Fees may include pro-rated charges for a partial monthly period prior to the Start Date. Thereafter, the Fixed Service Fee is due and payable in advance on the first day of each month and are considered late if not received by Webzy by the tenth calendar day of that month.
  • 9.4.    Credit Card Authorization. At the time Customer Electronically Signs the Quote or Change-order, Customer must provide Webzy with a valid email address and a credit card number from a card issuer that Webzy accepts in order to activate the Services. Customer hereby authorizes Webzy to charge and/or place a hold on Customer’s credit card with respect to any unpaid charges related to the Services including those charges arising from Section 12.2. Customer authorizes the issuer of the credit card to pay any amounts described herein without requiring a signed receipt, and Customer agrees that these TOS are accepted as authorization to the issuer of the credit card to pay all such amounts. Customer authorizes Webzy and/or any other company who bills products or services, or acts as billing agent for Webzy to continue to attempt to charge and/or place holds with respect to all sums described herein, or any portion thereof, to Customer’s credit card until such amounts are paid in full. Customer agrees to provide Webzy with updated credit card information upon Webzy’s request and any time the information Customer previously provided is no longer valid. Customer is solely responsible for maintaining and updating all credit card information. Without limiting the applicability of any other provisions of these TOS, Customer acknowledges and agrees that neither Webzy nor any Webzy-affiliated company will have any liability whatsoever for any non-sufficient funds or other charges incurred by Customer as a result of such attempts to charge, and/or place holds on, Customer’s credit card. If Customer mistakenly provides a debit card number, instead of a credit card number, Customer authorizes all charges described herein to be applied to such debit card unless and until Customer provides a credit card number. In the event Customer is enrolled, or later enrolls, in an automatic payment or electronic funds transfer plan, Customer agrees that all sums described herein may be charged, at Webzy’s option, to the account number provided for such automatic payment or electronic funds transfer plan.
  • 9.5.    Late Payments/Failure to Pay. If any amount due to Webzy is not received within ten (10) days of due date, the amount due shall incur interest at a rate of the lesser of: (i) eighteen percent (18%) per annum; or (ii) the highest rate allowed by law. Webzy’s acceptance of late or partial payments (regardless of how they are marked or designated, including without limitation as “Paid in Full,” “Accord and Satisfaction,” or similarly) shall not waive, limit, or prejudice in any way Webzy’s rights to collect any amount due. In addition to interest, an administrative charge of 5% of the amount due may be assessed in Webzy’s sole discretion and the Service may be discontinued. The administrative charge is intended to be a reasonable advance estimate of Webzy’s loss and damages resulting from Customer’s late payments and non-payments and is set in advance due to the difficulty inherent in determining Webzy’s loss and damages associated with any particular late payment or non-payment. If the Service is discontinued, Customer will be required to pay a reconnect fee in addition to all past due amounts before the Service is reconnected. Webzy does not anticipate that the Customer will fail to make payments on a timely basis. Webzy does not extend credit to the Customer, and the administrative charge is not interest, a credit service charge, or a finance charge. In the event Customer fails to pay Webzy or Webzy is unable to bill charges to Customer’s credit card, Webzy, in Webzy’s sole discretion, may assign unpaid late balances to a collection agency and the costs of that collection agency shall be paid by the Customer. Customer expressly authorizes, and specifically consents to allowing, Webzy and/or its outside collection agencies, outside counsel, or any other agents acting by or on behalf of Webzy to contact Customer with informational messages regarding Customer’s account, including but not limited to contact in connection with any and all matters relating to unpaid past due charges billed by Webzy to Customer. Customer agrees that such contact may be made to any mailing address, telephone number, cellular phone number, e-mail address, or any other electronic address that Customer has provided, or may in the future provide, to Webzy and to any and all telephone numbers on Customer’s account. Customer expressly consents and agrees that such contact may be made using, among other methods, pre-recorded or artificial voice messages delivered by an automatic telephone dialing system, text messages delivered by an automated system, pre-set e-mail messages delivered by an automatic e-mailing system, or any other pre-set electronic messages delivered by any other automatic electronic messaging system. Customer agrees to provide true, accurate, current and complete contact information to Webzy and its authorized agents and to promptly update Customer’s contact information to keep it true, accurate, and complete.
  • 9.6.    Price Changes. Webzy has the right to change the pricing of any Services at any time upon 30 days’ notice.
  • 9.7.    Credit Inquiries. Customer authorizes Webzy to make inquiries and to receive information about Customer’s credit experience from others, enter this information in Customer’s file, and disclose such information concerning Customer to appropriate third parties for reasonable business purposes. Webzy reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to refuse to provide Service based upon lack of creditworthiness, or in the alternative to require an additional deposit that will be returned to Customer, without interest thereon, upon the expiration or termination of Services assuming all amounts due Webzy have been paid in full. Webzy shall have the absolute right to offset against the deposit, in part or in full, any amounts due to Webzy.
  • 10.  Customer Conduct. NEITHER CUSTOMER NOR ANY END USERS SHALL USE THE SERVICES FOR ANY ILLEGAL, FRAUDULENT, IMPROPER, OR ABUSIVE PURPOSE OR IN ANY WAY THAT INTERFERES WITH WEBZY’S ABILITY TO PROVIDE HIGH QUALITY SERVICES TO OTHER CUSTOMERS, PREVENTS OR RESTRICTS OTHER CUSTOMERS FROM USING THE SERVICES, OR DAMAGES ANY PROPERTY OF WEBZY OR OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMERS. A breach of any obligation in this Section 10 (Customer Conduct) constitutes a material breach of these TOS, such that Webzy may, in its sole and unfettered discretion, suspend Services, terminate Services immediately, or take any other action Webzy deems necessary to provide the Services to Customer and others, to protect Customer, the Services, and the Webzy networks, and to enforce this Section. This Section in no way limits Webzy’s rights to otherwise suspend or terminate Services under these TOS.

Except as otherwise required by law, Customer is entitled to a prorated credit upon request only in the event of a complete failure of the Services due to technical malfunction of the system or network operated by Webzy for a period of twenty-four (24) consecutive hours or more. To obtain a credit, Customer must request a credit in writing to Webzy within thirty (30) days of the failure. Credits shall be applied against any future fees due to Webzy for the Services. A credit is the only remedy available to Customer in case of a Service interruption and in no event will Webzy be required to pay Customer any amount at all for a Service interruption. Webzy is not required to extend Customer a credit for any amount in excess of the prorated amount of fees due to Webzy from Customer for the duration of the interrupted Services. No credit will be provided for failures caused by factors described in Section 18.5. (Force Majeure).
  1. Automatic Renewal & Termination.
  • Automatic Renewal; Customer Termination Process. Webzy’s provision of the Services shall automatically renew for a period equal to the initial Duration on each anniversary unless Customer provides written notice of cancellation to Webzy forty five (45) days before the end of each Duration. That forty-five-day notice requirement applies to all Customer-initiated termination processes. For all Services with a Fixed Service Fee, Customer may only terminate those Services prior to the end of the each Duration by giving written notice to Webzy and by payment of an amount equal to the number of months remaining in the Duration multiplied by the amount of the monthly Fixed Service Fee (a “Fixed Service Fee Termination Amount”). For Services billed with Usage Fees, Customer may only terminate prior to the end of the Duration by giving written notice to Webzy and by payment of an amount equal to the number of months remaining in the Duration multiplied by the average of the prior three (or if less than three months have elapsed, the average of the actual number of months elapsed) months’ Usage Fees (a “Usage Fee Termination Amount”). All such types of fees described in this Section 12 are collectively or individually referred to as a “Termination Fee.” ANY CUSTOMER TERMINATION NOTICE WHICH IS NOT TIMELY AND ACCOMPANIED BY THE APPLICABLE TERMINATION FEE WILL RESULT IN THE CUSTOMER’S TERMINATION NOTICE DEEMED VOID. WEBZY PROVIDES NO REFUNDS FOR DELIVERABLES AT ANY TIME.
  • 6-Month Commitment for Discounted Deliverables. Notwithstanding any other part of these TOS, if Customer elects in any Quote or Change-order to receive discounted Deliverables, then the discount of those Deliverables is contingent on Customer maintaining all Services described in that Quote or Change-order for a period of six (6) calendar months following the Start Date. If Customer terminates or alters Services within a six-(6-) calendar-month period, then Webzy may, at Webzy’s option, immediately charge Customer the difference between the full price for any discounted Deliverables (the price indicated on the Quote or Change-order before discount) and the discounted amount, in addition to any Termination Fees.
  • Termination by Webzy. Webzy may terminate the Services immediately should Customer violate any of these TOS. Webzy may also terminate the Services for any other reason by providing Customer written notice of such termination no later than thirty (30) days before the date of termination. In the event that Webzy terminates the Services for any reason other than Customer’s violation of these TOS, Fixed Service Fees, Usage Fees and other charges will continue to accrue through the date of termination, but all prepaid fees and charges for terminated Services will be refunded, except as provided in Section 12.2. If termination is due to violation of these TOS, Customer will owe Webzy a Termination Fee as the case may be.

 

  • Customer Obligations. Customer agrees that upon termination of this Agreement for any cause, Customer will pay Webzy in full for Customer’s use of the Services up to the effective date of termination of the Services except where otherwise provided in these TOS. Customer agrees to pay Webzy on a prorated basis for any use by Customer of the Services for any part of a month.
  1. Customer acknowledges that Customer, by affixing an Electronic Signature to a Quote or Change-order, agrees to these TOS on behalf of all persons who use the Services through Customer’s computer(s), and other equipment and electronic devices. Customer shall have sole responsibility for ensuring that all End Users understand and comply with these TOS. Customer further acknowledges and agrees that Customer is solely responsible and liable for any and all breaches of these TOS whether such breach is the result of use of the Services by Customer or by any other user of Customer’s computer(s), and other equipment and electronic devices, including End Users.

  • Customer agrees that Webzy has set its prices and entered into this contract with Customer in reliance upon the disclaimers of warranty and the limitations of liability set forth in these TOS, that they reflect an allocation of risk between the Customer and Webzy (including the risk that a contract remedy may fail of its essential purpose and cause consequential loss), and that they form an essential basis of the bargain between Customer and Webzy.

Each Party shall, before initiating an arbitration, court or other action, suit, or proceeding against the other Party, its affiliate, or their personnel in respect to any Covered Claim (each a “Proceeding”), provide written notice to the other Party describing in reasonable detail its contentions and the specific provisions of the TOS, if any, allegedly breached. The Parties shall work diligently and in good faith for thirty (30) days following such notice to attempt to resolve the dispute, including without limitation by ensuring that knowledgeable executives of each Party hold at least one meeting (in person or by video- or tele-conference) to such end. If the Parties fail to resolve the dispute within such thirty- (30-) day period, either Party may thereafter initiate the Proceeding in accordance with these TOS (and without satisfying any further notice or cure period under the TOS).

COVERED CLAIMS SHALL BE SUBMITTED TO FINAL, BINDING ARBITRATION ADMINISTERED BY THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION (“AAA”). Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. This agreement to arbitrate also requires Customer to arbitrate claims against other parties relating to Services provided or billed to Customer if Covered Claims are asserted against Webzy in the same proceeding. Arbitration will be conducted under AAA’s published commercial arbitration rules. Customer and Webzy agree to bear their own fees, costs, and expenses, including those for any attorneys, experts, and witnesses. The place of arbitration shall be Los Angeles County, California. The language of the arbitration shall be English.
  • Except for Covered Claims or as otherwise provided in Section 16.2., in the event that the Parties are unable to resolve any dispute, any related action, lawsuit, or proceeding shall be brought in and adjudicated by state or federal courts located in the city and county of Los Angeles, California, United States of America. Each Party hereby irrevocably consents to and agrees to submit to the exclusive venue and personal jurisdiction of such courts with respect to any such actions, lawsuits, or proceedings (except as provided in Section 16.2) and irrevocably waives any right that the Party might have to assert that either forum is not convenient or that any such courts lack personal or subject matter jurisdiction.
  • Attorneys’ Fees. Except with regard to any matter submitted to arbitration under Section 16.2., and in any case except with regard to Covered Claims, if any dispute, litigation, or other action or proceeding arises between the Parties arising out of or related to these TOS or the Services, the prevailing Party in such proceeding shall be entitled to receive its actual attorneys’ fees, expert witness fees, and out of pocket costs incurred in connection with that action, litigation, or proceeding, in addition to any other relief it may be awarded.

  • The headings in these TOS are inserted for convenience and do not constitute a part of these TOS, nor do the headings modify or limit any part of these TOS.

  • Class Action Waiver. Any actions, lawsuits, or proceedings shall be conducted solely on an individual basis and the Parties expressly waive any right to bring any action, lawsuit, or proceeding as a class or collective action, private attorney general action, or in any other proceeding in which any Party acts or proposes to act in a representative capacity.
  • Equitable Relief. Customer agrees that any breach of Webzy’s IP Rights, or of any provisions of Section 10 (Customer Conduct) will cause Webzy irreparable harm for which monetary damages will be inadequate and that Webzy may, in addition to other remedies available at law or in equity, obtain injunctive relief without the necessity of posting a bond or other security, proof of damages, or similar requirement.
  • No Waiver. Except as expressly provided in these TOS, in no event will any failure or delay by a Party to assert or exercise any right, demand fulfilment or performance of any obligation, or avail itself of any remedy under these TOS, in whole or in part, be deemed a waiver of any right or remedy under these TOS on such occasion or any other occasion. Except as otherwise expressly provided in these TOS, all rights and remedies stated in these TOS are cumulative and in addition to any other rights and remedies available at law, or in equity.

  • The following shall survive termination of these TOS or the Services:
  • Customer’s payment obligations;

  1. In Customer’s use of the Services, Customer will represent itself accurately and will not impersonate any other person, whether actual or fictitious. Customer agrees that it is the sole or designated “sender” (as such term is defined in the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 and any rules or regulations adopted under such act (the “CAN-SPAM Act”)) of any message sent by Customer using the Services. Similarly, for messages sent to Canadian email accounts, Customer is the sole person sending or causing or permitting the message to be sent by Customer using the Service (within the meaning of Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation, S.C. 2010, c. 23 (“Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation”)). Customer agrees that for any email message sent by Customer using the Service, (i) the “from” line of any email message sent by Customer using the Service will accurately and in a non-deceptive manner identify Customer’s organization, Customer’s product or Customer’s service, (ii) the “subject” line of any email message sent by Customer using the Service will not contain any deceptive or misleading content regarding the overall subject matter of the email message, and (iii) Customer will include Customer’s valid physical address, which, if Customer is located in the United States, may be a valid post office box meeting the registration requirements established by the United States Postal Service. Customer is responsible for ensuring that Customer’s use of the Services do not generate a number of spam or other complaints in excess of industry norms. Webzy may terminate Customer’s Services if Webzy determines that Customer’s level of spam or other complaints is higher than industry norms, as determined by Webzy in our sole discretion. As a matter of privacy, Webzy will not share with Customer information about those recipients who complain about Customer’s use of the Services or file a spam report against Customer.
  1. Contact Lists, Consent. Customer agrees to use only contact lists in connection with the Services for which all listed parties have consented to receive correspondence from Customer. It is not sufficient consent to receive email correspondence from Customer if a person or organization participates in a survey or registers for an event, clicks “Like” on Customer’s Facebook® page, or “follows” Customer on Twitter®. If Customer has used a feature that allows Customer to request a recipient to confirm that Customer has the recipient’s permission to send messages to such recipient (assuming such use is permitted by laws applicable to Customer), and such recipient has not responded or does not respond affirmatively to such request for confirmation, Customer agrees that Customer shall not send messages to that recipient. Customer agrees not to send messages through the Service to distribution lists, newsgroups, publicly available press or media addresses or purchased email addresses.
  1. Every email message sent in connection with the Service must contain an “unsubscribe” link that allows subscribers to remove themselves from Customer’s mailing list. Each such link must remain operational for at least 60 days after the date on which Customer sends the message, and must be in form and substance satisfactory to Webzy. Customer agrees that Customer will not remove, disable, or attempt to remove or disable that link. Customer shall monitor and process unsubscribe requests received by Customer directly within 10 days of submission and update the email addresses to which messages are sent through Webzy. Customer cannot charge a fee, require the recipient to give Customer any personally identifying information beyond an email address, or make the recipient take any step other than sending a reply email or visiting a single page on an Internet website as a condition for honoring an unsubscribe request. As required under the CAN-SPAM Act and other applicable laws, Customer acknowledges that Customer is responsible for maintaining and honoring the list of unsubscribe requests following termination of Services and these TOS. Customer agrees that Customer shall not utilize the Service to send any message the primary purpose of which is the commercial advertisement or promotion of a commercial product or service (including content on an Internet website operated for a commercial purpose) (a “commercial electronic mail message” as defined in the CAN-SPAM Act or Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation) to any person who has opted out or otherwise objected to receiving such messages from Customer or another sender on whose behalf Customer may be acting.
  1. Compliance with Laws. The Services shall only be used for lawful purposes and Customer shall use the Services only in compliance with these TOS and all other applicable U.S., state, local and international laws in Customer’s jurisdiction, including:
  • the CAN-SPAM Act;
  • Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation;
  • any policies and laws related to unsolicited emails, spamming, privacy, obscenity, or defamation, copyright and trademark infringement and child protective email address registry laws;
  • laws relating to advertising, sales or promotional efforts or practices, redemption, refunds and provision of Customer’s products or services;
  • laws that govern false, unfair and deceptive practices, coupons, gift cards/certificates, defective products or services, unclaimed property, alcohol or tobacco, health and safety, fire, and hygiene standards;
  • laws that govern lotteries, sweepstakes, contests and promotions; and

Customer is responsible for determining whether the Services are suitable for Customer to use in light of any regulations, such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”), the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (“GLBA”), European data privacy laws, or other laws. If Customer is subject to a particular regulation and Customer uses the Services, then Webzy is not liable if the Services do not meet those requirements.

  1. Limitations on Use. Customer understands that not all messages or campaigns sent through the Services will be received by or will be capable of being viewed by their intended recipients. Customer understands that delivery of messages by means of the Services may involve transmissions over various networks, and that the messages (including images and text contained therein) could be reformatted or otherwise revised to conform to the formatting or technical requirements of such networks. Customer also understands and agrees that messages exceeding maximum character limitations may be truncated, abbreviated, reduced or otherwise abruptly cut short. Customer agrees that Webzy may establish general practices and limits concerning the Services, including the maximum number of messages or campaigns that may be distributed by Customer and/or the maximum size of any messages or campaigns that may be transmitted by means of the Services. Webzy reserves the right to modify, revise, suspend, or discontinue any Service in whole or in part, either temporarily or permanently and with or without notice, and Customer acknowledges that Webzy is not obligated to support or update the Service in any manner. If Webzy discontinues any Service in its entirety that Customer is using, Webzy will provide the Customer with the notice indicated in the General TOS.

Customer agrees to provide Customer’s products and services, Promotions, Deals, and run Customer’s events and Donation Campaigns in a safe and professional manner, consistent with industry best practices, including keeping reliable records. Customer is solely responsible for any and all statements and promises Customer makes and for all user assistance, warranty and support of Customer’s products and services, Promotions, Deals, events and Donation Campaigns and to comply with any promises Customer makes to its customers, users, donors and donees. Customer further agrees to provide contact information for any End User questions, complaints or claims. Customer agrees that Customer’s Promotions and Deals will prominently include any applicable rules, restrictions or limitations necessary to comply with applicable law, these TOS and Customer’s own requirements (the “Offer Terms”) and Customer agrees to comply with the same. Any such Offer Terms must be presented to prospective purchasers before they commit to make a payment or take any other action and must include any terms provided by Webzy. If Customer uses the Services to offer a Promotion, Customer is responsible for ensuring that Customer complies with applicable law relating to eligibility requirements (for example, age and residency restrictions), the selection of winners and all prizes offered in connection with the Promotion (for example, registration and obtaining necessary regulatory approvals) and that Customer’s Offer Terms include the foregoing to the extent applicable. Customer shall ensure that the rules for each Promotion (i) state that each entrant or participant unconditionally releases Webzy of any liability arising from the Promotion, and (ii) inform each entrant or participant that the Promotion is in no way sponsored, endorsed or administered by, or associated with Webzy. Customer agrees to indemnify Webzy and hold Webzy harmless from any and all claims and losses arising from Customer’s violation of this Section to the same extent as the indemnification described in the General TOS.

 

  1. For every listing, message or campaign sent or distributed via the Services, you agree that Webzy may add a link to Webzy’s website and a promotional statement such as “Email Marketing by Webzy” or “Powered by Webzy” in the footer or other similar location that does not unreasonably obscure the listing, message, or campaign.

Although Webzy has no obligation to monitor the content provided by Customer or Customer’s use of the Services, Webzy may do so and may block any messages or campaigns, remove any content, including surveys, event registrations, social campaigns, Promotions, Deals or Business Content, or prohibit any use of the Services that Webzy believes may be in violation of any provision of these TOS. Customer understands and agrees that Webzy and any applicable third party who supports, posts, publishes or distributes Customer’s Promotions, Deals or Business Content also has the right to reformat, edit, monitor, reject, block or remove any of Customer’s Promotions, Deals or Business Content at any time. In no case will the foregoing make Webzy responsible or liable for compliance with any such laws or obligations, for which Customer remains solely responsible and liable.
  1. Customer acknowledges that Webzy may from time to time provide Customer with marketing advice and other coaching, template design, frequently asked questions and tips on best practices and complying with applicable law, including any sample Offer Terms. Customer acknowledges that such assistance and information is provided as a convenience to Customer and that such assistance and information are not intended to and do not constitute legal advice and that no attorney-client relationship is formed.
