Subscription Fees

By creating an online Account with the Company, you will get access to a basic version of the App, Website, and/or Services, with limited features and functionality at no cost to you. In order to be able to access premium features and functionality, you will have to upgrade your plan to an annual, auto-renewing subscription (“Paid Account”), in accordance with the terms below:

Free trials and other promotions: Any free trial or other promotion that provides premium access to the App, Website, and/or Services, if any, must be used within the specified time of the free trial or promotion. You may be required to enter your billing information in order to sign up for a free trial or promotion. You may be required to cancel your Paid Subscription before the end of the free trial period or promotional period in order to avoid being charged the then-current, non-promotional Paid Subscription rate and being subject to any new terms.
Billing: We will automatically bill you from the date you convert to a Paid Account and on each periodic renewal until cancellation. You are responsible for all applicable taxes, and we will charge tax when required to do so. Some countries have mandatory local laws regarding your cancellation rights, and this paragraph does not override these laws.
Automatic renewal:  Subscription plans will be automatically renewed, at then-current pricing, unless explicitly canceled prior to renewal.
Cancellations/Refunds: You may cancel your Paid Account at any time. However, refunds are only issued if required by your applicable local law
Downgrades: You may downgrade your Paid Account to a Free Account only at the end of your subscription period. To do so, you must cancel your current subscription by turning off the Auto-Renew option before the end of the current subscription period, to avoid being charged for the next cycle. Your Paid Account will remain in effect until it is downgraded, cancelled, and/or terminated under these Terms. If you do not pay for your Paid Account on time, we reserve the right to cancel or suspend it. You will have 30 days from the expiry of your current subscription to buy another plan before your account and all records will be deleted from our servers. If, either at end of billing cycle of a Paid Account, or if the Account holder chooses to downgrade, the Account holder will be responsible for deleting/transferring data (such as, but not limited to, account records, users/non-users, attachments, etc.) to other locations (electronic/paper) before downgrading to the plan desired. Please note that you may need to adjust your account usage at that time to be able to downgrade to the desired plan.
Increase in Fees: Upon notice to you, the Company may modify its Subscription Plans, which may increase any fees specified in connection with its Services. Fees do not include any taxes, levies, duties or similar governmental assessments of any nature, including, for example, value-added, sales, use or withholding taxes, assessable by any jurisdiction (collectively, “Taxes”). You are responsible for paying all Taxes associated with purchases and transactions under this Agreement.
Payment Processors: Users of the App and Services will be required to provide their credit card or bank account details to the Company’s third party payment processors, including, but not limited to, Google or Apple, to process payment(s).

You authorize us to receive payment(s) for the App, Website, and/or Services, vis a vis our third-party payment providers, using the payment information you have supplied. Specifically, you will be required to provide your credit card or bank account details to the third-party service providers such as, but not limited to, Google and Apple, and/or register with the third-party service provider to process payment(s) for the Services. You agree to provide the third-party service provider with accurate and complete information about you for the purpose of processing payment(s), including but not limited to the service fees owed to Company for the use of the Service and App.

The Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion (but not the obligation), to: (i) place on hold any payment and out of pocket expenses; and/or (ii) refund, provide credits or arrange for the third-party service provider to do so, as necessary.

If you believe a payment has been processed in error, you must provide written notice to the Company at support@sortifyd.com within thirty (30) days after the date of payment specifying the nature of the error and the amount in dispute. If the Company does not receive notice within such thirty (30) day period, the payment will be deemed final and valid.

While the Company takes what it believes to be reasonable efforts to ensure secure transmission of your information to the third-party service provider that assesses and processes payment(s), the Company is not responsible for any fees or charges assessed by third party service providers, or any errors in the processing of payment(s) by third party service providers, including any errors that result from third-party negligence, improper transmission of payment information, your mistaken submission of payment information, or your submission of erroneous payment information. Your sole recourse is with the third-party service provider that processed the payment(s).

Disputes.   If you have a dispute regarding our fees, you agree not to file a credit or debit card chargeback with regard to any amount of fees charged in connection with the App or Services. Instead, you shall abide by the dispute resolution procedures outlined herein below.

Termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate the Account of any User who provides inaccurate, untrue, or incomplete information, or who fails to comply with the account registration requirements. The Company further reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate your Account on the App, Website, and/or Services if you violate these Terms of Use or for any reason or no reason at any time. We may also suspend your access to the App, Website, and/or Services, and your Account if you: (a) have violated the terms of these Terms of Use, any other agreement you have with the Company; (b) pose an unacceptable credit or fraud risk to us or Users; (c) provide any false, incomplete, inaccurate, or misleading information or otherwise engage in fraudulent or illegal conduct; or (d) for any other reason in the Company’s sole discretion, including but not limited to your (in)activity on the Account.

Termination of Service includes removal of access to Service and barring of further use (unless you re-subscribe). Termination may also include deletion of Account Credentials, Synched Data and all related information, files and content associated with or inside your Account. Please note that any termination of the Services will not delete any Stored Data on your device and/or computer, and you are solely responsible for the deletion of such Stored Data. The Company will not have any liability whatsoever to you for any suspension or termination, including deletion of your Synched Data. In most cases, in the event we elect to close your Account, we will provide at least thirty (30) days advance notice to you at the email address you have provided to us, so you have a chance to retrieve any Content stored on the Service servers (unless we determine that we are legally prohibited from providing such notice or enabling you to do so). After the expiration of this notice period, you will no longer be able to retrieve Content contained in that Account or otherwise use the Service through that Account.

If your Account is terminated or suspended by us for any reason or no reason, you agree: (a) to continue to be bound by these Terms of Use; (b) to immediately stop using the Services, (c) that any licenses granted to you under these Terms of Use shall end; (d) that we reserve the right (but have no obligation) to hide or delete all of your information and account data stored on our servers; and (e) that the Company shall not be liable to you or any third party for termination or suspension of access to the Services or for deletion or hiding of your information or account data.

After confirming you are the Account owner, we will remove your accounts, transactions, and login information from our records and will only continue to retain such information as we are required by law to retain.

We will not be liable to you for compensation, reimbursement, or damages in connection with your use of the App and Services, or in connection with any termination or suspension of the Account on our App or our Services. Any termination of these Terms of Use does not relieve you of any obligations to pay any Fees or costs accrued prior to the termination and any other amounts owed by you to us, as provided in these Terms of Use.

Your content/Account will remain private and confidential, even after your death or incapacity. Your content/Account may only be accessed by someone who holds your Account master password.

DMCA Notice

The Company will respond appropriately to notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply with the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”), as set forth below. If you own a copyright in a work (or represent such a copyright owner) and believe that your (or such owner’s) copyright in that work has been infringed by an improper posting or distribution of it via the Services, Website, or App, then you may send us a written notice that includes all of the following:

(i) a legend or subject line that says: “DMCA Copyright Infringement Notice”;

(ii) a description of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed or, if multiple copyrighted works are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works;

(vii) your electronic or physical signature.

The Company will only respond to DMCA Notices that it receives by mail, e-mail, or facsimile at the addresses set forth in the “Notice” section of this Agreement.

It is often difficult to determine if your copyright has been infringed.

Please note that the DMCA provides that any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity is infringing may be subject to liability.

We may send the information that you provide in your notice to the person who provided the allegedly infringing work. That person may elect to send us a DMCA Counter-Notification.
Without limiting the Company’s other rights, the Company may, in appropriate circumstances, terminate a repeat infringer’s access to the Services, Website, and/or any other website owned or operated by the Company.

Counter-Notification. If access on the Website or App to your submission to the Company is disabled or the work is removed as a result of a DMCA Notice, and if you believe that the disabled access or removal is the result of mistake or misidentification, then you may send us a DMCA Counter-Notification to the addresses above. Your DMCA Counter-Notification should contain the following information:

(i) a legend or subject line that says: “DMCA Counter-Notification”;

(ii) a description of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled (please include the URL of the Website from which the material was removed or access to it disabled);

(iii) a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled;

(iv) your full name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, and the username of your account;

You should also be aware that we may forward the Counter-Notification to the party who sent us the DMCA Copyright Infringement Notice.

Aggregated Data Ownership and Usage

As specified in the Company’s Privacy Policy, incorporated herein, we will own all Aggregated Data, and the Privacy Policy will govern how we collect and use Personal Information that is submitted through the App, Website, and/or Services. By accessing or using the App, Website, and/or Services, you agree to that you have read and accept our Privacy Policy.

Security

As explained in our Privacy Policy, we have controls in place to prevent outside parties from stealing or accessing your data and Personal Information, but they are not foolproof. Please exercise caution when disclosing any Personal Information while using our App, Website, and/or Services. We will notify one another if either of us becomes aware that your Personal Information has been compromised.

Personal Information

As outlined in the Company’s Privacy Policy, incorporated herein, we will protect your Personal Information and disclose it only in a limited number of circumstances. We have implemented measures designed to secure your Personal Information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration, or disclosure. However, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized third parties will never be able to thwart those measures, or use your Personal Information for improper purposes. You acknowledge that you provide your Personal Information at your own risk, and agree that you have read and assented to the Company’s Privacy Policy.

HIPAA

Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”) imposes rules to protect certain personal health information. There is a section in the App where users can enter their personal health information. However, all such information is fully encrypted, and stored only in the user’s Account.

Any Personal Information related to your or other’s health is not provided to us via our App as an official diagnosis by a healthcare provider. Since our App merely helps you record your own health data, we do not fall under HIPAA. Our App is not required to be HIPAA-compliant.

If you are concerned about the security of your health information, you should not share it, or any information that relates to the past, present or future physical or mental health or condition of an individual; the provision of health care to an individual; or the past, present or future payment for the provision of health care to an individual, vis a vis our App.

The App, Website, and/or Services are not intended to communicate protected health information, nor comply with HIPAA, as our App does not fall under HIPAA. If you do share any protected health information, you do so at your own risk.

Advertisements

The Company may display advertisements and promotions on or in connection with the App, Website, and/or Services, some of which may be paid for by third parties. We shall not be responsible or liable for any loss or damage of any sort incurred by you as a result of any advertisements or other advertising messages. Your interactions with advertisers found on or through the App, Website, and/or Services, including, without limitation, all reliance upon advertising, all commercial transactions arising out of said advertising, and any legal obligations associated with said advertising, are solely between you and such advertisers.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE COMPANY PARTIES’ AGGREGATE LIABILITY, COLLECTIVELY, FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, EXCEED THE FEES PAID PRECEDING THE DATE OF THE INCIDENT.

THE FOREGOING EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

Choice of Law

These Terms of Use and the relationship between you and the Company shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

Dispute Resolution

Informal Dispute Resolution: We want to address your concerns without needing a formal legal case. Before filing a claim against the Company, you agree to try to resolve the Dispute informally by contacting support@sortifyd.com.  We’ll try to resolve the Dispute informally by contacting you through email. If a dispute is not resolved within 15 days after submission, you or the Company may bring a formal proceeding.
We Both Agree To Arbitrate: You and the Company agree to resolve any Disputes through final and binding arbitration, except as set forth under Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate below.
Opt-out of Agreement to Arbitrate: You can decline this agreement to arbitrate by contacting support@sortifyd.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms of Use and stating that you (include your first and last name) decline this arbitration agreement.
Arbitration Procedures: The American Arbitration Association (AAA) will administer the arbitration under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes. The arbitration will be held in Indiana, or any other location we agree to.
Arbitration Fees: The AAA rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees. The Company will pay all arbitration fees for claims less than $75,000. The Company will not seek its attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines that your claim is frivolous.
Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate: Either you or the Company may assert claims, if they qualify, in small claims court in Columbus, Indiana, or any United States county where you live or work. Either party may bring a lawsuit solely for injunctive relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Company’s products or the Company Service, or infringement of intellectual property rights (for example, trademark, trade secret, copyright or patent rights) without first engaging in arbitration or the informal dispute-resolution process described above.
No Class Actions: You may only resolve Disputes with the Company on an individual basis, and may not bring a claim as a plaintiff or a class member in a class, consolidated, or representative action. Class arbitrations, class actions, private attorney general actions, and consolidation with other arbitrations aren’t allowed under this Agreement.
Judicial Forum for Disputes: In the event that the agreement to arbitrate is found not to apply to you or your claim, you and the Company agree that any judicial proceeding (other than small claims actions) will be brought in the federal or state courts within thirty (30) miles of Columbus, Indiana. Both you and the Company consent to venue and personal jurisdiction there. We both agree to waive our right to a jury trial.
Limitation on Claims: Regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to your use of the Company’s products or Services must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose, or else that claim or cause of action will be barred forever.

Entire Agreement: These Terms of Use and Privacy Policy referenced herein constitute the entire agreement between you and the Company concerning the subject matter herein and the use of the App, Website, and/or Services.

However, you, as an Account holder, may not assign, delegate or transfer this Agreement in whole or in part, without the Company’s prior written consent.
No Waiver: Any failure of the Company to enforce or exercise a right provided in these Terms of Use and/or the Privacy Policy is not a waiver of that right.
Severability: Should any provision of these Terms of Use be found invalid or unenforceable, the remaining terms shall still apply.
Force Majeure: Neither Party will be liable for any failure or delay in performance under this Agreement (other than for delay in the payment of money due and payable hereunder) for causes beyond that Party’s reasonable control and occurring without that Party’s fault or negligence, including, but not limited to, acts of God, acts of government, flood, fire, civil unrest, acts of terror, strikes or other labor problems (other than those involving the Company’s or your employees, respectively), computer attacks (by government/nation entities or otherwise) or malicious acts, such as attacks on or through the Internet, any Internet service provider, telecommunications or hosting facility. Dates by which performance obligations are scheduled to be met will be extended for a period of time equal to the time lost due to any delay so caused.
