Last Updated: December 9th, 2022

These Terms of Service (this “Agreement”) constitute a binding agreement between you, as an individual to the extent you’re accessing the Service in your individual capacity, or the organization that you represent (“you”, “your” or “Customer”) to include all individuals you authorize to access your account, and governs your use of Traact, Inc.’s (“Traact”) Services (as defined below). By signing up to use the Services, you agree to these Terms and to Traact’s Privacy Policy, which is available at https://www.traact.com/privacy. Customer and Traact are referred to herein individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties”.

Traact has developed a proprietary software tool (the “Software”) to assist users in managing corporate entities and administering related functions.

Software and Services.

Software License. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Traact hereby grants to Customer a limited, non-transferable, and non-exclusive license (the “License”) to use the Software during the term hereof solely in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and any specifications, instructions, and documentation (collectively, the “Documentation”) provided by Traact from time to time. The License shall be subject to the terms and conditions of one or more order forms to be executed between Traact and Customer or other online or offline instrument used to register for the Services (as defined below) (each, an “Order Form”). Customer shall use the Software and the Documentation solely for its own internal business purposes and in accordance with the limitations, if any, set forth on an Order Form.

Modifications to the Software. Traact may modify and/or update the Software from time to time, so long as such modification(s) do not materially reduce the Software’s performance or capabilities. Traact shall have no liability for any damage, liabilities, losses (including any loss of data or profits), or any other consequences that Customer, any of Customer’s authorized employees and personnel who are authorized to access the Software and Documentation (“Authorized Users”), or any other third party may incur as a result of modifications to the Software in accordance with this Section 1.2.

Software Support. Traact will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Customer ongoing support related to the Software as set forth in any Order Form (“Software Support Services”).

Additional Services. During the term hereof, Traact may agree to provide Customer with such additional services as are set forth on any Order Forms executed hereunder (together with the Software Support Services, the “Services”). Except as specified herein or in an executed Order Form, nothing in this Agreement or in any Order Form shall be construed as a guarantee of future Services outside the scope of any executed Order Form.

Financial Terms.

Fees. In consideration for the grant of the License and the provision of the Services, Customer shall pay to Traact the fees set forth in the applicable Order Form (the “Fees”) in accordance with this Section 2. If Customer’s payment of the Fees is subject to recurring charges, then Customer hereby consents to Traact’s charging Customer’s payment method on record with Traact on a recurring basis without requiring Customer’s prior approval for each recurring charge, until termination of this Agreement or any applicable Order Form. Traact may update its pricing at any time and reserves the right to correct any errors or mistakes in pricing, even if Traact has already requested or received payment. Traact also reserves the right to refuse any order placed with respect to the Services.

Invoices. Unless otherwise indicated on an Order Form, all invoices shall be due and payable within ten (10) days of the date of the invoice, and may be satisfied via an automatic charge to the credit card Customer keeps on file in Customer’s online account with the Services. Customer hereby agrees that Traact may charge any such credit card in Customer’s account for any Fees incurred by the Customer.

Method of Payment. Unless Traact states otherwise in writing, all amounts due and payable hereunder shall be paid (a) in U.S. Dollars, and (b) by credit/debit card via an authorized Traact payment processor, by automated clearing house transfer or by any other method approved in writing by Traact. Customer agrees to provide current, complete and accurate purchase and account information for all purchases made with respect to the Services. Customer further agrees to promptly update account and payment information, including email address, payment method and payment card expiration date, so that Traact can complete such transactions and contact Customer as needed.

Interest and Taxes. Interest on any late payments will accrue at the rate of 1% per month, or the highest rate permitted by applicable law, whichever is lower, from the date such amount is due until the date such amount is paid in full. Customer will be responsible for, and will pay all sales and similar taxes, and all similar fees levied upon the provision of the Software and the Services, excluding only taxes based solely on Traact’s income. Customer will indemnify and hold Traact harmless from and against any and all such taxes and related amounts levied upon the provision of the Services and any costs associated with the collection or withholding thereof, including penalties and interest.

Traact shall have no liability for any damage, liabilities, losses (including any loss of data or profits), or any other consequences that Customer or any third party may incur as a result of a Service Suspension or Service Revocation, and Customer shall not be entitled to any refunds of any Fees on account of any Service Suspension or Service Revocation. Any breach by Customer of any provision of this Section 3 shall be an incurable material breach and will entitle Traact to terminate this Agreement and any Order Forms immediately pursuant to Section 10.2(a).

If Traact learns it have collected personal information from anyone under 18, Traact will delete that information.

Confidentiality.

Definition. “Confidential Information” means all information disclosed (whether in oral, written, or other tangible or intangible form) by one Party (the “Disclosing Party”) to the other Party (the “Receiving Party”) concerning or related to this Agreement or the Disclosing Party (whether before, on, or after the Effective Date) that is marked “Confidential” or “Proprietary” or with similar designation by the Disclosing Party, or that otherwise should reasonably be deemed to be confidential based on the context and nature of the information. Confidential Information includes, but is not limited to, computer programs in source and/or object code, technical drawings, algorithms, know-how, prototypes, models, samples, formulas, processes, ideas, inventions (whether patentable or not), discoveries, methods, strategies and techniques, research, development, design details and specifications, financial information, procurement and/or purchasing requirements, customer lists, information about investors, employees, business or contractual relationships, sales and merchandising data, business forecasts and marketing plans, and similar information.

Obligations. The Receiving Party shall maintain in confidence the Confidential Information during the term of this Agreement and for a period of two (2) years thereafter, and will not use such Confidential Information except as expressly permitted in this Agreement; provided, however, that any trade secrets shall be treated confidentially for so long as such information qualifies for protection as trade secret under applicable law. The Receiving Party will use the same degree of care in protecting the Confidential Information as the Receiving Party uses to protect its own confidential and proprietary information from unauthorized use or disclosure, but in no event less than reasonable care. Confidential Information will be used by the Receiving Party solely for the purpose of carrying out the Receiving Party’s obligations under this Agreement. In addition, the Receiving Party will only disclose Confidential Information to its directors, officers, employees and/or contractors who have a need to know such Confidential Information in order to perform their duties under this Agreement, and only if such directors, officers, employees and/or contractors are bound by confidentiality obligations with respect to such Confidential Information no less restrictive than the non-disclosure obligations contained in this Section 4.2. The Parties agree that Customer Data (as defined below) shall be considered Customer’s Confidential Information and the terms and conditions of this Agreement will be treated as Confidential Information of both Parties and will not be disclosed to any third party; provided, however, that each Party may disclose the terms and conditions of this Agreement (a) to such Party’s legal counsel, accountants, banks, financing sources and their advisors, (b) in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or rights under this Agreement, or (c) in connection with an actual or proposed merger, acquisition, or similar transaction.

Exceptions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Confidential Information will not include information that: (a) is in or enters the public domain without breach of this Agreement and through no fault of the Receiving Party; (b) the Receiving Party can reasonably demonstrate was in its possession prior to first receiving it from the Disclosing Party; (c) the Receiving Party can demonstrate was developed by the Receiving Party independently, and without use of or reference to, the Confidential Information; or (d) the Receiving Party receives from a third party without restriction on disclosure and without breach of a nondisclosure obligation. In addition, the Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information that is required to be disclosed by applicable Laws or by a subpoena or order issued by a court of competent jurisdiction or other governmental authority (each, an “Order”), but solely on the conditions that the Receiving Party, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws: (i) gives the Disclosing Party written notice of the Order promptly after receiving it; and (ii) cooperates fully with the Disclosing Party before disclosure to provide the Disclosing Party with the opportunity to interpose any objections it may have to the disclosure of the information required by the Order and seek a protective order or other appropriate relief. In the event of any dispute between the Parties as to whether specific information is within one or more of the exceptions set forth in this Section 4.3, the Receiving Party will bear the burden of proof, by clear and convincing evidence, that such information is within the claimed exception(s).

Remedies. The Receiving Party acknowledges that any unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information will result in irreparable injury to the Disclosing Party, which injury could not be adequately compensated by the payment of money damages. In addition to any other legal and equitable remedies that may be available, the Disclosing Party will be entitled to seek and obtain injunctive relief against any breach or threatened breach by the Receiving Party of the confidentiality obligations hereunder, from any court of competent jurisdiction, without being required to show any actual damage or irreparable harm, prove the inadequacy of its legal remedies, or post any bond or other security.

Term, Termination and Effect of Termination.

Term. This Agreement commences upon the Effective Date and continues in effect until the expiration of the period specified in the initial Order Form (the “Initial Term”). Thereafter, in the event that the Parties execute one or more subsequent Order Forms, this Agreement will automatically renew for the time period specified in such additional Order Form(s) (each, a “Renewal Term”). Each Order Form shall specify a term applicable to such Order Form.

Termination. Notwithstanding Section 10.1, either Party may terminate this Agreement, including all related Order Forms, as follows: (a) if the other Party materially breaches this Agreement (including, without limitation, in the case of Customer, nonpayment of the Fees) and does not remedy such failure within thirty (30) days after its receipt of written notice of such breach (unless the breach is of a nature that is incapable of being cured, in which case the non-breaching Party may terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice); (b) if the other Party terminates its business activities or becomes insolvent, admits in writing to inability to pay its debts as they mature, makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or becomes subject to direct control of a trustee, receiver or similar authority; (c) upon 15 days’ written notice to the other Party, either Party may terminate this Agreement for convenience, provided that such termination will take effect at the end of the current paid term; or (d) as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement or an Order Form.

Effect of Termination.

Upon Traact’s termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.2(c), Customer shall be entitled to a refund of Fees for any period for which Customer has already paid but will not receive Services. Notwithstanding any terms to the contrary in this Agreement, any provision of this Agreement that, by its nature and context, is intended to survive this Agreement (including, without limitation, Customer’s obligation to pay any unpaid Fees and Sections 4 through 11, inclusive) will survive any termination of this Agreement. In no event will termination relieve Customer of its obligation to pay any Fees payable to Traact prior to the effective date of termination. In addition, if Traact terminates or suspends Customer’s account for any reason, Traact reserves the right to prohibit Customer from registering and creating a new account under Customer’s name, a fake or borrowed name, or the name of any third party, even if Customer may be acting on behalf of the third party.

General Provisions.

Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including all exhibits to this Agreement, all of which are incorporated herein by reference, sets forth the entire agreement and understanding of the Parties relating to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements, proposals, negotiations, conversations, discussions and understandings, written or oral, with respect to such subject matter and all past dealing or industry custom.

Independent Contractors. Neither Party will, for any purpose, be deemed to be an agent, franchisor, franchise, employee, representative, owner or partner of the other Party, and the relationship between the Parties will only be that of independent contractors. Neither Party will have any right or authority to assume or create any obligations or to make any representations or warranties on behalf of any other Party, whether express or implied, or to bind the other Party in any respect whatsoever.

Dispute Resolution. The Parties agree to resolve any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement according to the terms of this Section 11.3. First, the Parties agree to attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute through informal resolution. Second, if the dispute is not resolved through informal resolution, the Parties agree to participate in binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules in San Francisco, California. The Parties agree that, in the event of arbitration (or in the event of a lawsuit if this arbitration clause is deemed invalid or does not apply to a given dispute) the prevailing Party shall be entitled to costs and fees (including reasonable attorneys’ fees). Either Party may bring a lawsuit solely for injunctive relief without first engaging in the dispute resolution process described in this Section 11.3. In the event that the dispute resolution procedures in this Section 11.3 are found not to apply to a given claim, or in the event of a claim for injunctive relief as specified in the previous sentence, the Parties agree that any judicial proceeding will be brought in the state courts located in Santa Clara County, San Mateo County or the City and County of San Francisco, California. Both Parties consent to venue and personal jurisdiction there. ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES' INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING, AND, UNLESS AGREED TO OTHERWISE BY THE PARTIES, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS.

Governing Law. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement, and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the Parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law.

Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any right or duty under this Agreement may be transferred, assigned or delegated by either Party, by operation of applicable Laws or otherwise, without the prior written consent of other Party, and any attempted transfer, assignment or delegation without such consent will be void and without effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either Party may assign its rights and obligations hereunder in connection with a merger, reorganization, consolidation, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement will be binding upon, and will inure to the benefit of, the Parties and their respective representatives, heirs, administrators, successors and permitted assigns.

Amendments and Waivers. No modification, addition or deletion, or waiver of any rights under this Agreement will be binding on a Party unless in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of each Party.

All rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided hereunder or by applicable Laws. The waiver of one breach or default or any delay in exercising any rights will not constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach or default.

Any changes to this Agreement will become effective on the “Last Updated” date indicated above. If you continue to use the Services after such date, you consent to the new terms of the Agreement.
