Terms of Service
piLOBI Terms of Service
Updated: January 2020 Please carefully read these below terms of service (“terms”). By using the service, you agree to comply with and be bound by these terms As used herein, “customer” means the party identified as the customer or client on an account registration form or order form pursuant to which the customer receives access to the service (the “order”). These terms are incorporated by reference into each order and govern customer’s use of the service. These terms, together with the order and any exhibits, attachments or other documents incorporated herein by reference, constitute a binding and executed written agreement between customer and pilobi (“agreement”). The agreement is effective upon your initial access to the service.
The Service.
Access and Availability. Subject to Customer’s compliance with the Agreement (including payment of applicable fees due, in the case of paid features or services), piLOBI grants Customer a limited, revocable, non-transferable, non-exclusive right for it and its authorized number of Users to access and use the Service from and at one physical address during the Subscription Term solely for Customer’s internal business purposes (the “Subscription”). Customer’s Subscription is not dependent on any future functionality or features (or any public comments or other disclosure made by piLOBI with respect thereto). “Service” means the particular service features and offerings made available to Customer by PiLOBI based on the applicable subscription chosen by Customer (including in the case of free trials or “freemium” offerings), whether (i) online at www.piLOBI.com (or at such other designated URL as PiLOBI may assign from time-to-time), (ii) through software applications or (iii) through any other means made available by PiLOBI; including, in each case, all components thereof, on an individual and collective basis). “Users” means employees, contractors and agents of Customer or its affiliates who receive access to the Service from or through Customer. Subscriptions are limited to one physical address only. An additional Subscription is required for each additional physical address. Customer will remain principally responsible and liable for all acts and omissions of such Users and will cause such Users to comply with the provisions of this Agreement.
Subscription Term
Unless otherwise set forth in an Order, Customer’s initial subscription term for the Service commences on the date on which Users receive access to the Service (the “Subscription Start Date”). The Subscription will (except as otherwise provided in the following Section 1(c)) continue for the period specified in the Order (the “Initial Subscription Term”) and will automatically renew for successive periods of equal duration (each, a “Renewal Term”) at PiLOBI’s then-current rates unless either party gives the other party written notice of termination at least 30 days prior to the end of the Initial Subscription Term or the Renewal Term then in effect. The Initial Subscription Term plus all Renewal Terms are referred to herein as the “Subscription Term”.
Free Trials and Freemium Services
PiLOBI may, from time-to-time and in its sole discretion, make available to customers free trials of Services or “freemium” versions of limited Services. In such cases, where Customer’s subscription version and Subscription Term are not set forth in an Order, the Subscription Term shall be (a) 14 days, in the case of free trials, and (b) in perpetuity, in the case of freemium Services; provided always, however, that PiLOBI reserves the right to modify or cancel adjust such offerings from time-to-time in its sole discretion upon advance notice to customers. Free trials and freemium Services are offered “as-is” without warranty of any kind, and PiLOBI assumes no risks, indemnity obligations or liabilities to Customer in connection therewith. At the end of any free trial, or at any other time in the course of a free trial or freemium Service use, Customer may elect to convert to a paid subscription at PiLOBI’s then-current rates upon notice to PiLOBI.

Suspension.

PiLOBI may also suspend (or terminate) the Service if required or believed to be required pursuant to court order or developments in applicable laws or regulations. Suggestions.

Confidentiality; Security
Scope. “Confidential Information” means all information of a party (“Disclosing Party“) disclosed or made available to the other party (“Receiving Party“) that is designated in writing or identified as confidential at the time of disclosure or should be reasonably known by the Receiving Party to be confidential due to the nature of the information disclosed and the circumstances surrounding the disclosure. Restrictions. The Receiving Party will: (i) not use the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information for any purpose other than exercising its rights or performing obligations under this Agreement; (ii) not disclose such Confidential Information to any person or entity, other than its (a) employees who have a “need to know” for the Receiving Party to exercise its rights or perform its obligations hereunder and (b) professional advisers, and actual or prospective investors, provided that such employees, investors, acquirers and professional advisers are bound by agreements or, in the case of professional advisers, ethical duties respecting such Confidential Information in accordance with the terms of this Section 3; and (iii) use reasonable measures to protect the confidentiality of such Confidential Information. Exceptions. If the Receiving Party is required by applicable law or court order to make any disclosure of such Confidential Information, to the extent permitted by applicable law, it will first give written notice of such requirement to the Disclosing Party, and permit the Disclosing Party to intervene in any relevant proceedings to protect its interests in its Confidential Information, and provide full cooperation to the Disclosing Party in seeking to obtain such protection. Further, this Section 3 will not apply to information which the Receiving Party can document: (i) was rightfully in its possession or known to it prior to receipt; (ii) is or has become public knowledge or publicly available through no fault of the Receiving Party; (iii) is rightfully obtained by the Receiving Party from a third party without breach of any confidentiality obligation; or (iv) is independently developed by employees of the Receiving Party who had no access to such information. Equitable Relief. The Receiving Party acknowledges that unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information could cause substantial harm to the Disclosing Party for which damages alone might not be a sufficient remedy and, therefore, that upon any such disclosure by the Receiving Party the Disclosing Party will be entitled to appropriate equitable relief in addition to whatever other remedies it might have at law or equity. Data Security. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that any Customer Content uploaded to the Service constitutes Confidential Information, PiLOBI will be deemed to have complied with and discharged its obligations under this Section 3 by handling, processing and safeguarding such Customer Content in accordance with its Privacy Policy (as may be amended from time-to-time and which is incorporated herein by reference).
Fees; Interest; Taxes.
Customer will pay to PiLOBI all of the fees specified in the Order, in United States currency, unless otherwise specified in the Order. Except as expressly set forth to the contrary in the Agreement, all payment obligations are non-cancellable and all amounts paid PiLOBI are non-refundable. Fees will be invoiced in advance in accordance with the terms of the Order. Unless otherwise stated in the Order, all fees are due within 30 days from the invoice date. Unpaid invoices are subject to a late payment charge of 1.5% per month on any outstanding balance or the maximum permitted by law, whichever is lower, plus all reasonable expenses and fees of collection. Except in the case of free trials of the Service and freemium offerings, the Service requires a valid credit card at the time of registration.

Customer’s credit card transactions are solely between Customer and the applicable third-party service provider. All amounts payable hereunder are exclusive of any sales, use and other taxes or duties, however designated (collectively “Taxes”).

Termination.
Term and Termination. This Agreement will be effective during the Subscription Term, unless earlier terminated as allowed in the Agreement.

Outstanding Fees. Customer will pay all fees owed to PiLOBI that have accrued up until the effective date of termination of this Agreement in accordance with the Agreement. If Customer terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 6(a), PiLOBI will refund Customer a prorated amount equal to the pre-paid Subscription Fees covering the whole months that would have remained, absent such early termination, in Customer’s Subscription Term following the effective date of such early termination. Effect of Termination. Upon any termination of this Agreement, Customer will immediately cease all use of and access to the Service and delete (or, at PiLOBI’s request, return) all related documentation, passwords and access codes and any other PiLOBI Confidential Information in its possession. PiLOBI will have no liability for any suspension or termination of Customer’s access to the Service, or any termination of this Agreement, provided that it is conducted in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon written request by Customer made within 10 days after termination, PiLOBI will provide Customer with temporary access to the Service solely for Customer to retrieve its Customer Content, but not any other purpose. After such 10-day period, PiLOBI will have no obligation to maintain or provide access to such Customer data or Customer Content and will thereafter, unless legally prohibited and except for archival backup purposes, have the right to delete all such Customer data and Customer Content in its possession or control. Sections 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 and 10 of these Terms will survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.

Except for pilobi’s indemnification obligations, in no event will pilobi’s or any of its licensors’ and suppliers’ total, cumulative liability related to or arising out of this agreement, whether in contract, negligence or tort, exceed the total fees paid by the customer for the right to access and use the service under this agreement during the 12 month period immediately preceding the event or act giving rise to the cause of action.
