Terms of Service
The Terms of Service between the user and Flip, Inc. outline responsibilities, fees, warranty limitations, liability disclaimers, indemnification, and ownership, governing the use of Flip’s Site and Services, subject to New York State laws.
These Terms of Service are a contract between you and Flip, Inc. (“Flip”, “we”, “our, or “us”). By using the Flip “Site” (websites including, without limitation, www.FlipCX.com and all sub-domains and www.portal.FlipCX.com and all sub-domains) and the “Services” (any associated software, products, and services, including, without limitation, automated telephone communication software and services accessible from the Site), you are agreeing to be bound by this Terms of Service (the “Terms” or “Agreement”). The Terms set forth herein govern access to, interaction with and use of the Flip Services by the organization that you represent (such organization being referred to as “you” or “your”).
PROVISION OF FLIP SERVICES
Flip will provide you with access to the Flip Services. In exchange for access to the Flip Services, you agree that you will use the Flip Services in good faith in accordance with these Terms and not attempt to circumvent payments owed to Flip.
The Flip Services are made available via remotely hosted access and are licensed and not sold. An “Authorized User” is a person employed by you, who you expressly authorize to use the Flip Services in connection with your use of the Flip Services. You shall ensure that only Authorized Users use or access the Flip Services.
You shall be solely responsible for the security and proper use of all user IDs, passwords or other security devices used in connection with the Site and/or the Services, and shall take all reasonable steps to ensure that they are kept confidential and secure, are used properly and are not disclosed to or used by any other person or entity. You shall immediately inform Flip if there is any reason to believe that a user ID, password or any other security device issued by Flip has or is likely to become known to someone not authorized to use it, or is being or is likely to be used in an unauthorized way. Flip reserves the right (at its sole discretion) to request that you change your password(s) in connection with the Services, and you shall promptly comply with any such request.
You are solely responsible for all activity in connection with access to the Site and/or Services through your account or using your password, and for the security of your computer systems and phone systems, and in no event shall Flip be liable for any loss or damages relating to such activity.
YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES
You shall comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations applicable to you during the Term.
You shall maintain throughout the Term commercial liability insurance that meets or exceeds any insurance standards set forth in applicable law, but not less than a commercially reasonable amount of insurance.
You may be required to provide information about yourself in order to register for and/or use certain Services. You agree that any such information shall be accurate.
FEES AND PAYMENTS
Your access to or use of the Services and/or Software shall be contingent upon your payment of all applicable fees as described on the Site or Software at the time (“Fees”).
Upon registering for Services, unless you are an Authorized User, you will be required to designate a valid payment method. You hereby authorize Flip to charge to your designated account all Fees relating to the Services you select, and you agree to pay all such Fees in accordance with the applicable payment method terms and conditions.
Flip shall have no liability to you for acts or omissions of you or any third party.
Flip may increase or decrease the Fees upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to you. Your use of the Services after the thirty (30) day notice period constitutes your acceptance of the new or revised Fees. The Fees shall not be subject to adjustment under any circumstances except as otherwise arranged with a Flip representative.
All fees and other amounts are expressed in US Dollars (“US Dollar Amounts”). You may pay all amounts due under this Agreement in either (i) US Dollars; or (ii) your local currency (“Local Currency); provided, however, that if you make payment of any amount in Local Currency, it shall pay upon Flip’s demand any shortfall (the “Shortfall”) of the US Dollar equivalent of the amount paid in Local Currency (“US Dollar Equivalent”) compared to the US Dollar Amounts. Flip shall calculate the US Dollar Equivalent by applying the spot exchange rate quoted in Wall Street on Demand on the day it first receives payment of the amount paid in Local Currency. Flip’s determination of the US Dollar Equivalent and any Shortfall controls, absent manifest error.
TERM AND TERMINATION
This Agreement shall commence on the date upon which you begins using the Flip Services or establish a valid Payment Account (whichever occurs first), and shall continue until terminated by either party, with or without cause, following not less than thirty (30) days’ written notice of such termination.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, all accrued payment obligations will survive expiration or termination of this Agreement. The provisions of the Sections “Fees and Payments”; “Term and Termination”; “Limited Warranty”; “Limitation and Disclaimer of Liability”; “Indemnification”; “Ownership of the Flip Services”; and “Governing Law and Jurisdiction” and applicable definitions shall survive termination of this Agreement for any reason.
