Client will be solely responsible for authorizing and creating user IDs, passwords, and other access credentials for Authorized Users. Client is solely responsible for determining its Authorized Users, monitoring their usage to ensure compliance with their terms and restricting and/or terminating the rights of such users during the Subscription Term, as Client deems appropriate. Provided, however, Xipster may, in its sole discretion, suspend any Authorized User’s access to the Services.

3.7 Beta Releases and Free Access Subscriptions. Subject to Client’s compliance with the terms of this Agreement, Xipster may provide Client with certain Services for free or on a trial basis (a “Free Access Subscription”) or with “alpha”, “beta”, or other early-stage Services, integrations, or features (“Beta Releases”) for the Subscription Term set forth in the applicable Subscription Documentation (if applicable). This Section 3.7 and any relevant Additional Terms will apply to any Free Access Subscription or Beta Release (even if a Beta Release is provided for a fee or counts towards Client’s Scope of Use allocations) and supersedes any contrary provision in this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, Section 6 (Availability of Services; Support) will not apply to any Free Access Subscription or Beta Release. Xipster may use good faith efforts in its discretion to assist Client with Free Access Subscriptions or Beta Releases. Without limiting the other disclaimers and limitations in this Agreement, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, CLIENT AGREES THAT ANY FREE ACCESS SUBSCRIPTION OR BETA RELEASE IS PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY, SUPPORT, MAINTENANCE, STORAGE, SLA, OR INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS OF ANY KIND. WITH RESPECT TO BETA RELEASES, CLIENT FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT BETA RELEASES MAY NOT BE COMPLETE OR FULLY FUNCTIONAL AND MAY CONTAIN BUGS, ERRORS, OMISSIONS, AND OTHER PROBLEMS FOR WHICH XIPSTER WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE. ACCORDINGLY, ANY USE OF A BETA RELEASE IS AT CLIENT’S SOLE RISK. You may choose to use Free Access Subscriptions and Beta Releases at your sole discretion. Xipster makes no guarantees or promises with respect to the continued availability of any Free Access Subscriptions or Beta Releases or that future versions of a Free Access Subscription or Beta Release will be released or will be available under the same commercial or other terms. Xipster may discontinue Beta Releases at any time, in our sole discretion, and decide not to make any Beta Releases generally available. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Xipster may terminate Client’s right to use any Free Access Subscription or Beta Release at any time for any reason or no reason in Xipster’s sole discretion, without liability.

3.8 Free Trial Subscription. Subject to Client’s compliance with the terms of this Agreement, Xipster may provide Client with certain Services for free or on a trial basis (“Free Trial”) for the Subscription Term set forth in the applicable Subscription Documentation (if available). This Section 3.8 and any relevant Additional Terms will apply to any Free Trial Subscription and supersedes any contrary provision in this Agreement. Section 6 (Availability of Services; Support) will not apply to any Free Trial Subscription. Xipster may use good faith efforts in its discretion to assist Client with Free Trial Subscriptions.  Without limiting the other disclaimers and limitations in this Agreement, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, CLIENT AGREES THAT ANY FREE TRIAL SUBSCRIPTION IS PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY, SUPPORT, MAINTENANCE, STORAGE, SLA, OR INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS OF ANY KIND. ACCORDINGLY, ANY USE OF A FREE TRIAL IS AT CLIENT’S SOLE RISK. You may choose to use Free Trial Subscriptions at your sole discretion. Xipster makes no guarantees or promises with respect to the continued availability of any Free Trial Subscriptions or that future versions of a Free Trial Subscription will be released or will be available under the same commercial or other terms. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Xipster may terminate Client’s right to use any Free Trial Subscription at any time for any reason or no reason in Xipster’s sole discretion, without liability. Any Client can only register once for one (1) Free Trial Subscription. If there is a set time limit to the Free Trial Subscription and Client cancels the Free Trial Subscription prior to the end of the Subscription trial time limit, it is considered a full Free Trial Subscription term and will be considered one (1) full term for their Free Trial Subscription. The Client authorizes for their Credit Card to be stored on file when completing the registration for a Free Trial Subscription. The Client authorizes for a $0.01 verification charge to be applied to their Credit Card to complete the registration for a Free Trial Subscription. The Client is aware the $0.01 verification charge will be refunded to the Credit Card used in the registration process after the verification has been completed with the Credit Card processing provider. The Client is aware that the Free Trial Subscription will automatically convert to a paid Xipster Essentials monthly Subscription as per the time outlined during the registration process and in their Subscription Documentation for the trial period, unless the Client has canceled or upgraded their Free Trial Subscription before the end of the Free Trial Subscription time. The Client is aware if their Free Trial Subscription has come to an end, and they have not canceled or upgraded their plan to a different Xipster paid monthly or annual subscription, they will be charged the current rate for the lowest base Xipster plan. The Client is aware the fee for the plan conversion to the Monthly base Essentials plan will be applied automatically to the credit card on file taken during the free trial registration process, and is aware that there is no refund provided for the charge of the Monthly base Essentials plan when the Free Trial automatically converts at the end of the posted Free Trial Subscription period. The Client is aware they can cancel their Subscription at any time, but there will be no refund for any unused portion of the Subscription period. All Subscription terms, whether annual or monthly are charged in full and paid at time of registration, any cancellation will prevent the Subscription from continuing past the paid Subscription period.

3.9 Monthly Add-ons. Subject to Client’s compliance with the terms of this Agreement, Xipster may provide Client with certain Services as paid monthly add-ons. Client is aware that these monthly add-ons are billed automatically to the credit card on file at the time of registration and are billed month to month. Client is aware that initial charges for any paid monthly add-ons will be pro-rated based on time of subscription and either collected at time of plan subscription or when purchased as an add-on after original plan subscription, and will be automatically charged to the credit card on file. The Client is aware that any monthly add-on has an additional minimum one (1) full month commitment after time of subscription and are unable to cancel the add-on service until that full month subscription has passed. The Client is aware that canceling any monthly add-on subscription before the end of the calendar month, will not provide any refund for any unused amount. Add-ons are charged for the full month at the beginning of each month and charged automatically to the credit card on file.

Except as otherwise specified in the applicable Subscription Documentation, unless Client terminates a Free Access Subscription prior to the lapse of the Free Access Subscription Term, such Services will convert to a paid Subscription and Client agrees to pay Xipster the applicable Subscription Fees according to the terms of this Agreement. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Subscription Documentation, payment for all Fees is automatically charged to the credit card registered on file at the time of the subscription registration.

The Subscription will continue unless and until you or Xipster terminate your Subscription in accordance with Section 8. You must cancel your Subscription before it renews in order to avoid billing the next periodic Subscription Fees to your account. The Client must ensure that their account has a sufficient positive balance to cover all Fees when due.

Client will make tax and regulatory fee payments to Xipster to the extent amounts are included on Xipster’s invoices.

7.4 Fee Increase. Xipster reserves the right to determine the applicable Fees for any Services. While Xipster will make reasonable efforts to keep the information relating to Fees published on its Website up to date, you should check the Website periodically for information about current Fees. If any Fees are specified on your Subscription Documentation, Xipster may increase Fees applicable to you upon forty-five (45) days’ prior written notice, effective on the start date of your subsequent Subscription Term.

Xipster may also suspend Client’s (or any Authorized User’s, as applicable) access to the Services, remove Client Data, or disable Third-Party Products if it determines that: (i) Client has breached Sections 3 (Use Rights; Restrictions) or 5 (Client Obligations); or (ii) suspension is necessary to prevent harm or liability to other clients of Xipster or third parties or to preserve the security, stability, availability, or integrity of the Services. Xipster will have no liability for taking action as permitted above. For avoidance of doubt, Client will remain responsible for payment of Fees during any suspension period. Unless this Agreement has been terminated, Xipster will cooperate with Client to restore access to the Services once it verifies that Client has resolved the condition requiring suspension.

8.3 Termination for Cause. Either party may terminate this Agreement, including any related Subscription Documentation, if the other party: (a) fails to cure any material breach of this Agreement (including a failure to pay fees) within thirty (30) days after written notice detailing the breach; (b) ceases operation without a successor; or (c) seeks protection under any bankruptcy, receivership, trust deed, creditors’ arrangement, composition, or comparable proceeding, or if any such proceeding is instituted against that party (and not dismissed within sixty (60) days thereafter). If Client terminates during the Subscription Term for any reason other than the foregoing, Client will be responsible for the Fees due for the entire Subscription Term. Xipster may also terminate this Agreement or any related Subscription Documentation immediately if Client breaches Sections 3 (Use Rights; Restrictions) or 5 (Client Obligations), for repeated violations of other Sections of this Agreement, or if applicable, a breach of the parties’ BAA.

8.4 Effect of Termination. Upon any expiration or termination of this Agreement or any Subscription Documentation: (a) Client’s license rights will terminate and it must immediately cease use of the Services (including any related Xipster Technology) and delete (or, at Xipster’s request, return) any and all copies of any Xipster documentation, scripts, passwords or access codes, and any other Xipster Confidential Information in Client’s possession, custody, or control; and (b) Client’s right to access any Client Data in the applicable Services will cease, and unless otherwise precluded by a BAA, Xipster may delete any such data in its possession at any time. If Xipster terminates this Agreement for cause as provided in Section 8.3 (Termination for Cause), any payments for the remaining portion of the Subscription Term will become due and must be paid immediately by Client. Except where this Agreement specifies an exclusive remedy, all remedies under this Agreement, including termination or suspension, are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies that may be available to a party.

9.1 Obligation of Confidentiality. Except as otherwise expressly permitted in this Agreement, each party (as the receiving party) must: (a) hold in confidence and not disclose the other party’s Confidential Information to third parties; and (b) use the other party’s Confidential Information only as necessary to fulfill its obligations and exercise its rights under this Agreement. Each party may share the other party’s Confidential Information with its employees, agents, contractors, subcontractors, or Authorized Users having a legitimate need to know (which, for Xipster, includes the subcontractors referenced in Section 16.6), provided that such party remains responsible for any recipient’s compliance with the terms of this Section 9 and these recipients are bound to confidentiality obligations no less protective than this Section.

9.2 Exclusions. These confidentiality obligations do not apply to (and Confidential Information does not include) information that: (a) is or becomes public knowledge through no fault of the receiving party; (b) was known by the receiving party prior to receipt of the Confidential Information; (c) is rightfully obtained by the receiving party from a third party without breach of any confidentiality obligation; or (d) is independently developed by the receiving party without using the disclosing party’s Confidential Information. A party may also disclose the other party’s Confidential Information to the extent required by law, subpoenas, or court orders, provided it uses commercially reasonable efforts to notify the other party where permitted to do so) and cooperates in any effort by the other party to obtain confidential treatment for the information.

9.3 Remedies. The parties acknowledge that disclosure of Confidential Information may cause substantial harm for which damages alone may be an insufficient remedy, and so upon breach of this Section, each party is entitled to seek appropriate equitable relief in addition to any other remedies it may have at law.

 

  1. XIPSTER TECHNOLOGY.

10.1 Ownership and Updates. By accepting this Agreement, Client acknowledges that it is obtaining only a limited right to use the Services and irrespective of any use of the words “purchase”, “sale”, or similar terms, no ownership rights are transferred to Client under this Agreement and, except as expressly permitted by such limited right, Client may not make any use of Xipster Technology. Client agrees that Xipster (or its suppliers) exclusively retains all rights, title, and interest (including all intellectual property rights) in and to all Services, products, any and all related documentation, software, technology, code, know-how, logos, trademarks, service marks, and templates (including in any reports or output obtained from the Services), anything delivered as part of support, materials or other services, and any updates, modifications, or derivative works of any of the foregoing, including as may incorporate any Feedback (as defined below) (“Xipster Technology”) provided by Xipster (which is deemed Xipster’s Confidential Information) and reserves any licenses not specifically granted herein. Furthermore, Xipster exclusively owns and reserves all right, title, and interest in and to Xipster’s Confidential Information and any data, in anonymized or aggregated form that does not identify you, any end users, or any natural person, generated or derived from the use or operation of the Services, including volumes, frequencies, bounce rates, and performance results for the Services. The Services are offered as an online, hosted product.

10.2 Feedback. If Client elects to provide any suggestions, comments, improvements, information, ideas, or other feedback or related materials to Xipster (collectively, “Feedback”), Client hereby grants Xipster a worldwide, perpetual, non-revocable, sublicensable, royalty-free right, and license to use, copy, disclose, license, distribute, and exploit any such Feedback in any manner without any obligation, payment, or restriction based on intellectual property rights or otherwise. Nothing in this Agreement limits Xipster’s right to independently use, develop, evaluate, or market products, whether incorporating Feedback or otherwise.

 

  1. THIRD-PARTY PRODUCTS AND INTEGRATIONS.

Xipster may, from time to time, contract with a third party to facilitate certain features of the Services, including as described in Section 16.6 of this Agreement. Xipster may also allow or facilitate Client to make arrangements with other third-party providers that provide products or services in connection with, but which are not included in, the Services as described in this Agreement (“Third-Party Provider(s)”). If Client elects to use any Third-Party Provider(s) or any applications, integrations, add-ons, software, code, online services, systems, and other products that are not Xipster Technology (“Third-Party Products”) in connection with the Services, such Third-Party Provider(s) or Third-Party Products may make Third-Party Content available to Client and may access Client’s instance of the Services, including Client Data. Client agrees and acknowledges that use of such Third-Party Provider(s) or Third-Party Products may require Client to enter into separate terms and conditions with such third-party. Unless Xipster expressly agrees otherwise in a signed writing, Xipster (a) is not a party to any such terms; (b) will not be liable thereunder; (c) does not warrant or support Third-Party Providers, Third-Party Products; or Third-Party Content; and (d) disclaims all responsibility and liability for these providers and items and their access to the Services, including their modification, deletion, disclosure, or collection of Client Data. Xipster is not responsible in any way for Client Data once it is transmitted, copied, or removed from the Services.

Client also agrees to defend the Xipster Entities against these claims at Xipster’s request, but Xipster may participate in any claim through counsel of its own choosing and the parties will reasonably cooperate on any defense. In the event Xipster assumes exclusive defense of such claims, Client agrees to cooperate with our defense of any such claims. Client may not settle any claim without Xipster’s prior written consent if the settlement does not fully release Xipster from liability or would require Xipster to admit fault, pay any amounts, or take or refrain from taking any action.

12.2 Indemnification by Xipster. Xipster will indemnify and hold Client harmless from and against any third-party claims and related costs, damages, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) arising from or pertaining to (a) Xipster’s gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (b) Xipster’s infringement, misappropriation, or violation of a third party’s intellectual property rights. Xipster also agrees to defend Client against these claims at Client’s request, but Client may participate in any claim through counsel of its own choosing and the Parties will reasonably cooperate on any defense. Xipster must not settle any claim without Client’s prior written consent if the settlement does not fully release Client from liability or would require Client to admit fault, pay any amounts, or take or refrain from taking any action.

12.3 Exclusions to Xipster’s Indemnification. Xipster will not be required to indemnify Client in the event of: (a) modification of the Services by Client, its Authorized Users, Developer Partners, Third-Party Providers, affiliates, employees, or contractors in conflict with Client’s obligations or as a result of any prohibited activity under this Agreement, (b) use of the Services in a manner inconsistent with this Agreement, the Acceptable Use Policy, the Additional Terms, the Subscription Documentation, or any other agreement related to this Agreement, or (c) use of the Services in combination with any other application, product, or service not provided by Xipster if such claim would not have occurred without such combination.

 

  1. DISCLAIMERS.

13.1 EXCEPT AS PROVIDED EXPRESSLY HEREIN, ALL XIPSTER TECHNOLOGY AND RELATED SERVICES, MATERIALS, AND CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE XIPSTER TECHNOLOGY ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND ON AN “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS. NEITHER XIPSTER NOR ITS SUPPLIERS MAKE ANY WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, TITLE, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NONINFRINGEMENT. XIPSTER MAKES NO REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY, OR GUARANTEE THAT XIPSTER TECHNOLOGY WILL MEET CLIENT’S REQUIREMENTS OR EXPECTATIONS, THAT CLIENT DATA WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, OR PRESERVED WITHOUT LOSS, OR THAT XIPSTER TECHNOLOGY WILL BE SECURE, TIMELY, UNINTERRUPTED, OR ERROR-FREE, AND XIPSTER DOES NOT WARRANT THAT ANY OF THOSE ISSUES WILL BE CORRECTED. XIPSTER WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE IN ANY MANNER FOR ANY CLIENT PROPERTIES, THIRD-PARTY PROVIDERS, THIRD-PARTY PRODUCTS, THIRD-PARTY CONTENT, OR NON-XIPSTER SERVICES (INCLUDING FOR ANY DELAYS, INTERRUPTIONS, TRANSMISSION ERRORS, SECURITY FAILURES, AND OTHER PROBLEMS CAUSED BY THESE ITEMS), FOR THE COLLECTION, USE, AND DISCLOSURE OF CLIENT DATA AUTHORIZED BY THIS AGREEMENT, OR FOR DECISIONS OR ACTIONS TAKEN (OR NOT TAKEN) BY CLIENT BASED UPON XIPSTER TECHNOLOGY OR XIPSTER’S RELATED SERVICES (INCLUDING CHANGES TO CLIENT PROPERTIES). THE DISCLAIMERS IN THIS SECTION 13 WILL APPLY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY HEREIN. CLIENT MAY HAVE OTHER STATUTORY RIGHTS. HOWEVER, ANY STATUTORILY REQUIRED WARRANTIES UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, IF ANY, SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE SHORTEST PERIOD AND MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

13.2 NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED BY YOU FROM THE SERVICES OR XIPSTER ENTITIES OR ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SERVICES WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY REGARDING ANY OF THE XIPSTER ENTITIES OR THE SERVICES THAT IS NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THESE TERMS. XIPSTER DOES NOT PROVIDE ITS CLIENTS WITH LEGAL ADVICE REGARDING DATA PRIVACY OR COMPLIANCE WITH RELEVANT LAW IN ANY JURISDICTION, AND ANY STATEMENTS MADE BY XIPSTER TO ITS CLIENT(S) DO NOT CONSTITUTE LEGAL ADVICE. USE OF THE SERVICES DOES NOT GUARANTEE COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAWS IN ANY JURISDICTION.

 

  1. LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY.
    TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL XIPSTER OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OF USE, LOST OR INACCURATE DATA, INTERRUPTION OF BUSINESS, LOST PROFITS, COSTS OF DELAY, REPUTATIONAL HARM, OR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, COVER, RELIANCE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, HOWEVER CAUSED, EVEN IF INFORMED IN ADVANCE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT WILL XIPSTER’S OR ITS SUPPLIERS’ TOTAL LIABILITY EXCEED IN AGGREGATE THE AMOUNT ACTUALLY PAID BY CLIENT TO XIPSTER FOR THE APPLICABLE SERVICE(S) OR RELATED SERVICE(S) IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM. FOR FREE ACCESS SUBSCRIPTIONS OR BETA RELEASES, XIPSTER’S TOTAL LIABILITY WILL NOT EXCEED IN AGGREGATE FIFTY U.S. DOLLARS ($50.00 US). NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NONE OF THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION 14 EXCLUDES EITHER PARTY’S LIABILITY FOR FRAUD OR FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY TO THE EXTENT CAUSED BY A PARTY’S NEGLIGENCE. IN ADDITION, THE LAWS IN SOME JURISDICTIONS MAY NOT ALLOW SOME OF THE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY IN THIS SECTION. IF ANY OF THESE LAWS IS FOUND TO APPLY TO THIS AGREEMENT, THIS SECTION 14 WILL APPLY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY SUCH LAW. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS SECTION 14 IS A FUNDAMENTAL BASIS OF THE BARGAIN AND A REASONABLE ALLOCATION OF RISK BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND WILL SURVIVE AND APPLY TO ANY CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY XIPSTER TECHNOLOGY, OR ANY RELATED SERVICES, REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY (CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE), EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY IN THIS AGREEMENT IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. EACH PROVISION OF THESE TERMS THAT PROVIDES FOR A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES, OR EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES IS INTENDED TO AND DOES ALLOCATE THE RISKS BETWEEN THE PARTIES UNDER THESE TERMS. THIS ALLOCATION IS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN THE PARTIES. EACH OF THESE PROVISIONS IS SEVERABLE AND INDEPENDENT OF ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THESE TERMS. THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION 14 WILL APPLY EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

 

15. DISPUTE RESOLUTION.
If a dispute arises between the parties related to this Agreement or the Services provided therefrom, and the dispute cannot be settled through informal negotiations, the parties agree to resolve their dispute (referred to herein as “Claim(s)”) as follows:

15.1 Mediation. The parties agree to participate in mediation to settle their Claims in accordance with the rules and procedures found in Oakville, Ontario, and this Agreement before a party can file a judicial action, whether in a court of law, an administrative body, government agency, or otherwise. If there are any conflicting provisions between the Ontario Court of Law, and this Agreement, the provisions in this Agreement will govern.

15.2 Judicial Action. If the parties are unable to resolve the Claim pursuant to the mandatory mediation referenced above (or if one of the parties refuses to participate in the mandatory mediation or fails to respond to a complaining party’s request for mediation), the parties may subsequently file a judicial action.

  1. GENERAL.

16.1 Assignment. This Agreement will bind and inure to the benefit of each party’s permitted successors and assigns. Neither party may assign this Agreement without the advance written consent of the other party, except that Xipster may assign this Agreement without consent to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, reorganization, acquisition, or other transfer of all or substantially all of its assets or voting securities. Any attempt to transfer or assign this Agreement except as expressly authorized under this Section 16.1 will be null and void.

16.2 Notices. Any notice or communication to Xipster under this Agreement must be in writing. Client must send any notices under this Agreement (including breach notices) to Xipster Headquarters (include “Attn. Legal Department” in the subject line) or by email to [email protected]. Xipster may send notices to the e-mail addresses on Client’s account or, at Xipster’s option, to Client’s last-known postal address. Xipster may also provide operational notices regarding the Services or other business-related notices through conspicuous posting of such notice on Xipster’s Website or the Services. Each party hereby consents to receipt of electronic notices and agrees that any notices, agreements, disclosures, or other communications that we send to you electronically will satisfy any legal communication requirements, including that those communications be in writing. Xipster is not responsible for any automatic filtering Client or its network provider may apply to email notifications.

16.3 Publicity. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Subscription Documentation, Xipster may use Client’s name, logo, and marks to identify Client as a Xipster Client on Xipster’s website and other marketing materials.

16.4 Xipster Communication with Client. You agree that Xipster may send you emails and text messages, including transactional, operational, and marketing messages, possibly using automated technology, to the email or phone number you provide to Xipster. Message and/or data rates may apply to such messages, and you may opt out at any time. You will keep your contact information up to date and will notify Xipster immediately in the event that your contact information changes.

16.5 Referral Programs. Xipster may, from time to time, and in its sole discretion, offer referral programs or opportunities to certain Xipster clients or users. Such programs or opportunities may include incentives for such clients or users to promote Xipster and/or its Services to their family or friends. Participation in such programs or opportunities is completely voluntary and is subject to this Agreement and the Xipster Referral Submission Terms (“Referral Submission Terms”). Xipster may modify, discontinue, or terminate any referral program or similar opportunity at any time, without notice.

16.6 Subcontractors. Xipster may use subcontractors and permit them to exercise the rights granted to Xipster in order to provide the Services and related services under this Agreement. Unless Xipster expressly states otherwise in signed writing, Third-Party Providers are not “subcontractors” under this Agreement, and Xipster disclaims all responsibility and liability for the actions or omissions of any Third-Party Providers, including but not limited to Developers.

16.7 Subpoenas. Nothing in this Agreement prevents Xipster from disclosing Client Data to the extent required by law, subpoenas, or court orders, but Xipster will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify Client where permitted to do so.

16.8 Independent Contractors. The parties to this Agreement are independent contractors, and this Agreement does not create a partnership, joint venture, employment, franchise, or agency relationship. Neither party has the power to bind the other or incur obligations on the other party’s behalf without the other party’s prior written consent.

16.9 Force Majeure. Neither party will be liable for any delay or failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement (except payment obligations) if the delay or failure is due to causes beyond its reasonable control, such as a strike, blockade, war, act of terrorism, riot, natural disaster, disruption in transportation systems, disruption of labor force, national or state emergency, epidemic, pandemic, communicable disease outbreak, failure or reduction of power or telecommunications or data networks or services, or government act or order.

16.10 Amendments; Waivers. Xipster may update or modify these Terms (including the Additional Terms and any referenced policies and other documents) from time to time by posting a revised version on the Website or Services or by notification via the email associated with your account. If a change to these Terms materially modifies your rights or obligations, you may be required to click through the updated Terms to show acceptance and to continue to use the Services. Material modifications are effective upon the earlier of your acceptance of the modified Terms or upon your next subsequent Subscription Term. Immaterial modifications will become effective upon posting or notification, and continued use of the Services or Website, following the update, will constitute acceptance of the updated Terms. If Client does not agree to the updated Terms, Client will no longer have the right to use the Services. Except as otherwise described in this Section 16.10, any modification or amendment to this Agreement must be made in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of each party (each in its discretion). No waiver will be implied from conduct or failure to enforce or exercise rights under this Agreement. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement will constitute a waiver of any other provision, whether or not similar, nor will any waiver constitute a continuing waiver. Failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement will not operate as a waiver of such provision or any other provision or of the right to enforce such provision or any other provision. Waivers must be made in writing and executed by a duly authorized representative of the waiving party.

16.11 Headings. The headings used in this Agreement are for ease of reference only. They are not intended as a complete re-statement of the matters contained under each heading, and you acknowledge that you have read and understand all the text of this Agreement, and not just the headings.

16.12 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is found by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited to the minimum extent necessary so that this Agreement may otherwise remain in effect, and all other provisions remain in full effect.

16.13 No Third-Party Rights. Nothing in this Agreement confers on any third party the right to enforce any provision of this Agreement. Client acknowledges that each Subscription only permits use by and for the legal entity or entities identified in the Subscription Documentation and not any affiliates. Furthermore, Client’s affiliates are not permitted to use the Services under these Terms unless an affiliate agrees to these Terms individually and creates its own account.

16.14 Attorneys’ Fees and Costs. The substantially prevailing party in any action to enforce this Agreement will be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs for the action.

16.15 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including these Terms and any applicable Subscription Documentation, represents the parties’ complete and exclusive understanding relating to the Agreement’s subject matter. It supersedes all prior or contemporaneous oral or written communications, proposals, and representations with respect to the Xipster Technology or any other subject matter covered by this Agreement. The terms of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the Sale of Goods do not apply to this Agreement. The Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act (UCITA) will not apply to this Agreement regardless of when or where adopted. Any terms provided by Client (including as part of any purchase order or other business form used by Client) are for administrative purposes only and have no legal effect.

16.16 Counterparts; Electronic Transmission. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which will constitute an original, and all of which will constitute one and the same instrument. A facsimile or other reproduction of this Agreement may be executed by one or more parties hereto, and an executed copy of this Agreement may be delivered by one or more parties hereto by facsimile or similar electronic transmission device pursuant to which the signature of or on behalf of such party can be seen, and such execution and delivery will be considered valid, binding and effective for all purposes.

14. CONTACT INFORMATION

If you have questions about your privacy on the Services or this Privacy Policy, please contact us at: [email protected]

2360 Bristol Circle, Unit 102, Oakville, Ontario, Canada L6H 6M5

This Acceptable Use Policy (the “Policy”) sets out rules applicable to your use of Xipster by VenueVision Corporation (“Xipster”, “we”, “us” or “our”) Services and Xipster Technology, including via our clients’ websites or platforms (the “Services”). The examples described in this Policy are not exhaustive.

 

This Policy should be read in conjunction with the Xipster Terms of Service (“Xipster Terms of Service”) (currently available at: https://xipster.com/legal/) into which it is incorporated by reference. We may suspend, terminate, or take other interim action regarding your access to or use of the Services, if, in our sole judgment, we believe you, directly or indirectly, violated this Policy or authorize or help others to do so.

 

We may modify this Policy from time to time by posting a revised version on our website. By using the Services, you agree to the latest version of this Policy. Any capitalized terms not defined in this Policy have the meaning set forth in the Xipster Terms of Service.

 

General Policies/Requirements. We all expect that the messages and communications we want to send and receive will reach the intended recipient(s), unhindered by filtering or other blockers. An important step you can take to make that expectation a reality is to prevent unwanted communications by only sending messages and communications that comply with applicable laws and communications-industry guidelines/standards. To that end, all communications originating from your use of the Xipster Services and Xipster Technology (including but not limited to SMS, MMS, webchat, Voice, and similar messaging channels available through the Services) are subject to, and must comply with, the Xipster Terms of Service, including this Policy, which sets out certain rules and/or prohibitions regarding: Consent (“opt-in”); Revocation of Consent (“opt-out”); Sender identification; Messaging Usage; Prohibited Content; Filtering Evasion; and Enforcement.

 

Consent Requirements

 

Standard Consent Requirements. Prior to sending the first message to an individual, you must obtain agreement from the message recipient to communicate with them – this is referred to as “consent.” You must make clear to the individual they agree to receive messages of the type you’re going to send.

You need to keep a record of the consent, such as a copy of the document or form that the message recipient signed, or a timestamp of when the customer completed a sign-up flow or otherwise provided consent. This record of consent must be retained as set forth by local regulations or best practices after the end user opts out of receiving messages.

If you do not send an initial message to that individual within a reasonable period after receiving consent (or as set forth by local regulations or best practices), then you will need to reconfirm consent in the first message you send to that recipient. The consent applies only to you, and to the specific use that the recipient has consented to. Consent can’t be bought, sold, or exchanged. For example, you can’t obtain the consent of message recipients by purchasing a phone list from another party. You also can’t treat it as blanket consent allowing you to send messages from other brands or companies you may have, or additional messages about other uses for which you haven’t received consent.

Alternative Consent Requirements. While consent is always required and the consent requirements noted above are generally the safest path, there are two scenarios where consent can be received differently.

 

Contact initiated by an individual

If an individual sends a message to you, you may respond in an exchange with that individual. For example, if an individual texts your phone number asking for your hours of operation, you can respond directly to that individual, relaying your open hours. In such a case, the individual’s inbound message to you constitutes both consent and proof of consent. Remember that the consent is limited only to that particular conversation. Unless you obtain additional consent, don’t send messages that are outside that conversation.

Informational content to an individual based on a prior relationship

You may send a message to an individual where you have a prior relationship, provided that individual provided their phone number to you, and has taken some action to trigger the potential communication, and has not opted out or otherwise expressed a preference to not receive messages from you.

Actions can include a button press, alert setup, appointments, or order placements. Examples of acceptable messages in these scenarios include appointment reminders, receipts, one-time passwords, order/shipping/reservation confirmations, drivers coordinating pick-up locations with riders, and repair persons confirming service call times. The message can’t attempt to promote a product, convince someone to buy something, or advocate for a social cause.

 

Periodic Messages and Ongoing Consent

If you intend to send messages to a recipient on an ongoing basis, you should confirm the recipient’s consent by offering them a clear reminder of how to unsubscribe from those messages using standard opt-out language (defined below). You must also respect the message recipient’s preferences in terms of frequency of contact. You also need to proactively ask individuals to reconfirm their consent as set forth by local regulations and best practices.

 

Identifying Yourself as the Sender
Every message you send must clearly identify you (the party that obtained the opt-in from the recipient) as the sender, except in follow-up messages of an ongoing conversation.

 

Opt-out
The initial message that you send to an individual needs to include the following language: “Reply END to unsubscribe,” or the equivalent using another standard opt- out keyword, such as STOP, STOPALL, UNSUBSCRIBE,, and QUIT.
Individuals must have the ability to revoke consent at any time by replying with a standard opt-out keyword. When an individual opts out, you may deliver one final message to confirm that the opt-out has been processed, but any subsequent messages are not allowed. An individual must once again provide consent before you can send any additional messages.

 

Prohibited Content

You agree that you will not use the Services, or encourage, promote, facilitate, or instruct others to use the Services, to send messages that contain, offer, promote, reference, or link to any information or content related to any of the following:

Solicitations or Advertising. Any messages, communication, promotions, advertising, or solicitations (like “spam”), including commercial advertising and informational announcements or otherwise, that are unsolicited or for which you do not have the proper consent from the intended recipient. If you are a Customer of any Xipster Client, this includes using the Services to send any such message, communication, or announcement to a Xipster Client or any other person or entity.
Illegal, Harmful, or Fraudulent Activities. Any activities that are illegal, that violate the rights of others, or that may be harmful to others, our operations, or reputation, including but not limited to offering, promoting, disseminating, or facilitating:
child pornography, child sexual abuse material, or other sexually exploitative content; fraudulent goods, services, schemes, or promotions; make-money-fast or “get-rich-quick” schemes (including work-from-home programs, risk investment opportunities, ponzi and pyramid schemes); high-risk financial services (including payday loans, short-term high-interest loans, third-party auto or mortgage loans, student loans, or cryptocurrency); third-party lead generation services (such as companies that buy, sell, or share consumer information); debt collection or forgiveness services (including third-party debt collection, debt consolidation, debt reduction, or credit repair programs) illegal or regulated substances (including, but not limited to, Cannabis, CBD, or offers for (or payment transactions relating to) Prescription Drugs that cannot be sold over- the-counter); Gambling; “SHAFT” use cases (Sex, Hate, Alcohol, Firearms, Tobacco, including vaping-related activities);
phishing or pharming.

Infringing Content. Content that infringes or misappropriates the intellectual property or proprietary rights of others.

Offensive Content. Content that is harassing, defamatory, obscene, abusive, invasive of privacy, or otherwise objectionable.

Harmful Content. Content or other computer technology that may damage, interfere with, surreptitiously intercept, or expropriate any system, program, or data, or otherwise effect a security breach, including viruses, Trojan horses, worms, time bombs, or cancelbots.

Evasive Content. Content that is designed to intentionally evade filters, detection, or monitoring (see below

Prohibited Industries. If you are using Xipster’s Payment Services, you may not use the services in conjunction with any activities identified as Prohibited Industries, as defined in Xipster’s Payment Service Terms.

Message Abuse; Falsification of Identity or Origin.

You will not send messages using spam bots or other similar systems, alter or obscure mail headers, provide false identification, or assume a sender’s identity without the sender’s explicit permission. You will also not create a false identity or attempt to mislead others as to the identity of the sender or the origin of any data or communications.

 

Evasion.

You may not use the Services or Xipster Technology to evade Xipster’s (including our subcontractor’s) or a telecommunications provider’s unwanted messaging detection and prevention mechanisms. Examples of prohibited practices include:
Content designed to evade detection. As noted above, we do not allow content which has been specifically designed to evade detection by unwanted messaging detection and prevention mechanisms. This includes intentionally misspelled words or non-standard opt-out phrases which have been specifically created with the intent to evade these mechanisms.

Snowshoeingon. We do not permit snowshoeing, which is defined as spreading similar or identical messages across many phone numbers with the intent or effect of evading unwanted messaging detection and prevention mechanisms.

Use of shared public URL shorteners. Where a web address (i.e., Uniform Resource Locator (URL)) shortener is used, you should not use links that have been shortened using shared public URL shorteners like Bitly or TinyURL. If you want to include shortened URLs in your messages, we recommend using a dedicated short domain.

 

Reverse Engineering and Related Restrictions.

You will not (a) modify or create a derivative work of the Services or any portion thereof; (b) reverse engineer, disassemble, decompile, translate, or otherwise seek to obtain or derive the source code, underlying ideas, algorithms, file formats, or non-public APIs to any Services, except to the extent expressly permitted by applicable law and then only upon advance notice to Xipster; (c) break or circumvent any security measures or rate limits for the Services; or (d) remove or obscure any proprietary or other notices contained in the Services, including in any reports or output obtained from the Services.

 

Our Monitoring and Enforcement.

We reserve the right, but do not assume the obligation, to monitor content on and sent through the Services and to investigate any violation of the Xipster Terms of Service, including this Policy, or misuse of the Services. We may remove or disable access to any user, content, or resource that violates the Xipster Terms of Service or this Policy or any other agreement we have with you for use of the Services. We may report any activity that we suspect violates any law or regulation to appropriate law enforcement officials, regulators, or other appropriate third parties. Our reporting may include disclosing appropriate customer information. We may also cooperate with appropriate law enforcement agencies, regulators, or other appropriate third parties to help with the investigation and prosecution of illegal conduct by providing network and systems information related to alleged violations of this Policy.

 

Our Reporting Violations.

If you become aware of any violation of this Policy, you will immediately notify us and provide us with assistance, as requested, to stop or remedy the violation.
