In the event the Service Plan permits multiple users of the Service, an account may need to be set up for each such user (each, a “User Account“, and references herein to the “Account” shall be deemed to include all such User Accounts if applicable).

Customer is solely responsible and liable for the maintenance and backup of all Customer Content.

3. UPDATES AND SUPPORT

3.1. Updates. All references herein to the “Service” shall include any Updates provided by or on behalf of Linkcard under this Agreement. Linkcard may from time to time provide Updates but shall not be under any obligation to do so. Such Updates will be supplied according to whatever then-current internal policies Linkcard may have in place, and some Updates may, in any event, be limited, suspended or restricted by geography, volume, duration or any other criteria decided by Linkcard in its sole discretion. Some Updates may include automatic updating or upgrading without any notice or obligation to Customer, and Customer consents to any such automatic updating or upgrading of the Service. In some cases, Customer may be required to install the Update manually. An Update may be accompanied by separate or additional terms and conditions, as well as additional fees (in each case, “Update Specific Terms“). Unless stated otherwise in Update Specific Terms, all Update Specific Terms apply in addition to (and not instead of) this Agreement.

4. CUSTOMER CONTENT

As between Customer and Linkcard, Customer is solely responsible and liable for (and agrees to hold harmless and release Linkcard and all Linkcard Affiliates from) all Customer Content, Linkcard’s processing of Customer Content, for all use of Customer Content (including without limitation use by others), as well as for the consequences of inputting, uploading, or transmitting Customer Content (including without limitation, for obtaining any licenses, permissions, consents, approvals, and authorizations from individuals appearing therein). Customer hereby represents and warrants that: (a) its Customer Content does not, and will not, infringe, misappropriate, or violate any third party’s Intellectual Property Rights, privacy rights (or other personal rights), or any Law; (b) its Customer Content is not, and will not be, disparaging, libelous, threatening, offensive, harassing, deceptive, abusive, promoting of violence, illegal drugs, illegal arms trafficking, or illegal gambling, and does not, and will not, contain obscenity or pornography, create any risk to a person’s safety or health, impersonate another person, compromise national security, or interfere with an investigation by law enforcement; and (c) it has obtained, and will maintain during and after any termination of this Agreement, any and all licenses, permissions, consents, approvals, and authorizations required in connection with Customer Content. The content, nature, frequency, and quantity of Customer Content has not been specifically requested or authorized (and may or may not be reviewed) by Linkcard and is submitted to the Service at Customer’s sole risk and discretion. Unless specifically requested by the Service, or strictly required for use of the Service, Customer represents and warrants that Customer Content will not include any Sensitive Data (as defined below), unless Sensitive Data is specifically requested by the Service or Linkcard. “Sensitive Data” means any (i) categories of data enumerated in Article 9(1) of the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation 2016/679, aka the GDPR) or any successor Law; (ii) patient, medical or other protected health information regulated by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, as amended and supplemented (“HIPAA“), and Customer also agrees that Linkcard is not acting as Customer’s Business Associate or subcontractor (as such terms are defined under HIPAA); (iii) credit, debit or other payment card data subject to the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (“PCI DSS“); (iv) other information subject to regulation or protection under specific Laws, such as the United States’ Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (or related Laws); (v) social security numbers, national insurance numbers, driver’s license numbers or other government ID numbers; or (vi) any data similar to the foregoing that is protected under foreign or domestic Laws.

5. PAYMENT

5.1. Fees. Customer agrees to pay all fees stated in the Order Form and according to the Service Plan (“Fees“), and in accordance with the Service Plan’s applicable billing cycle (“Billing Cycle“) and other payment terms.

5.2. General. Unless expressly stated otherwise in the Order Form or Service Plan: (a) all Fees are stated, and are to be paid, in currency stated in the time of payment via credit or debit card, in-app purchases made through the applicable app marketplace (i.e. Apple Appstore or Google Play) or any other payment method that shall offered by Linkcard from time to time (the “Payment Method”); (b) all Fees are payable in advance; (c) all payments under this Agreement are non-refundable and are without any right of set-off or cancellation, however Linkcard reserves the right to apply different refund policies from time to time on a case by case basis; and (d) any amount not paid when due will accrue interest on a daily basis until paid in full, at the lesser of the rate of one and a half percent (1.5%) per month and the highest amount permitted by applicable Law. Amounts payable under this Agreement are exclusive of all applicable sales, use, consumption, VAT, GST, and other taxes, duties or governmental charges, except for taxes based upon Linkcard’s net income. In the event that Customer is required by any Law applicable to it to withhold or deduct taxes for any payment under this Agreement, then the amounts due to Linkcard shall be increased by the amount necessary so that Linkcard receives and retains, free from liability for any deduction or withholding, an amount equal to the amount it would have received had Customer not made any such withholding or deduction.

5.3. Payment Method and Processing. Customer represents that it is the authorized user of the Payment Method. Customer shall provide Linkcard accurate and complete billing information and agrees to promptly notify Linkcard of any changes to the Customer’s billing information. For certain Payment Methods, there may be a temporary charge of $0.01 to verify the card’s validity (but this amount will be refunded as soon as the Payment Method is confirmed). Customer authorizes Linkcard (either directly or through third parties) to request and collect payment (and otherwise charge, refund or take any other billing actions) from Customer on a recurring basis, including without limitation via Linkcard’s payment provider or Customer’s designated banking account, and to make any inquiries Linkcard deems necessary to validate Customer’s designated Payment Method or financial information, in order to ensure prompt payment (including for the purpose of receiving updated payment details from Customer’s payment, credit card or banking account provider – such as, updated expiry date or card number as may be provided to Linkcard by Customer’s credit card company). Payment of Fees may be processed through a third-party payment processing service (which will receive and process Customer’s billing information), and additional terms may apply to such payments.

6. OWNERSHIP

6.1. Service. As between the parties, Linkcard is, and shall be, the sole and exclusive owner of all Intellectual Property Rights in and to (a) the Service; and (b) any and all improvements, derivative works, modifications, and/or customizations of/to the Service, regardless of inventorship or authorship. Customer shall make, and hereby irrevocably make, all assignments necessary or reasonably requested by Linkcard to ensure and/or provide Linkcard the ownership rights set forth in the preceding sentence.

6.2. Customer Data. As between the parties, Customer is and shall be, the sole and exclusive owner of all Customer Content.

6.3. Feedback and Statistical Data. In the event that Customer (or any person on Customer’s behalf) provides any suggestions or similar feedback regarding the Service and/or Linkcard Content, or any part thereof (“Feedback“), and/or to the extent Linkcard receives de-identified statistical (or similar) information or data regarding Customer’s use of the Service and/or Linkcard Content (“Statistical Data“), Linkcard shall be entitled, in perpetuity, to use and commercially exploit such Feedback and Statistical Data without any obligation or restriction whatsoever.

7. THIRD PARTY SERVICES

The Services enable you to engage and procure certain third-party services, products, and tools for enhancing your overall user experience, including, without limitation, printing and shipping services (collectively, “Third Party Services”). You acknowledge and agree that regardless of the manner in which such Third Party Services may be offered to you, Linkcard merely acts as an intermediary platform between you and such Third Party Services, and does not in any way endorse any such Third Party Services, or shall be in any way responsible or liable with respect thereto. Linkcard will not in any way be responsible for monitoring, any interaction or transaction between you and any Third party Services. You acknowledge that such services may require the payment of additional amounts to Linkcard and/or to the providers of such Third-Party Services. Any and all use of such Third Party Services shall be done solely at your own risk and responsibility and may be subject to such legal and financial terms which govern such Third Party Services, which you are encouraged to review before engaging with them. While we hope to avoid such instances, Linkcard may, at any time and at its sole discretion, suspend, disable access to or remove from the Service any Third-Party Services – without any liability to you or to any End Users.

8. CONFIDENTIALITY

Each party and/or its Affiliates (the “Recipient“) may have access to certain non-public or proprietary information and materials of the other party and/or its Affiliates (the “Discloser“), whether in tangible or intangible form (“Confidential Information“). Confidential Information shall not include information and material which: (a) at the time of disclosure by Discloser to Recipient hereunder, was in the public domain; (b) after disclosure by Discloser to Recipient hereunder, becomes part of the public domain through no fault of the Recipient; (c) was rightfully in the Recipient’s possession at the time of disclosure by the Discloser hereunder, and which is not subject to prior continuing obligations of confidentiality; (d) is rightfully disclosed to the Recipient by a third party having the lawful right to do so; or (e) independently developed by the Recipient without use of, or reliance upon, Confidential Information received from the Discloser. The Recipient shall not disclose the Discloser’s Confidential Information to any third party, except to its employees, advisers, agents and investors, subject to substantially similar written confidentiality undertakings. Recipient shall take commercially reasonable measures, at a level at least as protective as those taken to protect its own Confidential Information of like nature, to protect the Discloser’s Confidential Information within its possession or control, from disclosure to a third party. The Recipient shall use the Discloser’s Confidential Information solely for the purposes of performing under this Agreement. In the event that Recipient is required to disclose Confidential Information of the Discloser pursuant to any Law, regulation, or governmental or judicial order, the Recipient will (a) promptly notify Discloser in writing of such Law, regulation or order, (b) reasonably cooperate with Discloser in opposing such disclosure, (c) only disclose to the extent required by such Law, regulation or order (as the case may be). Upon termination of this Agreement, or otherwise upon reasonable written request by the Discloser, the Recipient shall promptly return to Discloser its Confidential Information (or if embodied electronically, permanently erase it, and if requested, certify such erasure in a signed writing).

The above disclaimers apply to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law. If Customer is a consumer under its applicable Law, Customer may have legal rights in its country of residence which would prohibit the above disclaimers from (fully or partially) applying to Customer (for example, some jurisdictions’ Laws do not allow the disclaimer of certain implied warranties or conditions, and do not allow limitations to be imposed on statutory rights), and, to the extent the above disclaimers are prohibited, then Customer and Linkcard agree that they will not apply to Customer.

EXCEPT FOR BREACHES OF CONFIDENTIALITY UNDER SECTION ‎7 (CONFIDENTIALITY), A BREACH OF THE SUBSCRIPTION, AND/OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE UNDER, OR OTHERWISE IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT, FOR: (A) ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES; (B) ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF BUSINESS, LOSS OF REVENUE, OR LOSS OF ANTICIPATED SAVINGS; (C) ANY LOSS OF, THEFT OF, OR DAMAGE TO, CUSTOMER CONTENT, STORAGE SPACE, DATA, NETWORKS, HARDWARE, REPUTATION, OR GOODWILL; AND/OR (D) THE COST OF PROCURING ANY SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES.

If any third party (including, but not limited to, a regulatory or governmental authority) brings any kind of demand, claim, suit, action or proceeding against Linkcard, a Linkcard Affiliate, and/or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, or representatives (each, an “Indemnitee“), and it is based upon or arises from: (a) Customer’s use of the Service; (b) Customer’s breach of any provision of this Agreement; and/or (c) Any demand, claim, suit, action, or proceeding brought by, or loss or damage incurred or suffered by, any employee or client of Customer (each of the foregoing, an “Indemnity Claim“) then, upon written request by Linkcard (to be decided in its sole discretion), Customer agrees to assume full control of the defense and settlement of the Indemnity Claim; provided, however, that (c) Linkcard reserves the right, at any time thereafter, to take over full or partial control of the defense and/or settlement of the Indemnity Claim, and in such cases Customer agrees to reasonably cooperate with Linkcard’s defense activities at Customer’s own cost and expense; and (d) Customer shall not settle any Indemnity Claim, or admit to any liability thereunder, without the express prior written consent of the Indemnitee(s).

12. TERM AND TERMINATION

12.1. Term. This Agreement commences on the Effective Date and, unless terminated in accordance herewith, shall continue in full force and effect for the Subscription term stated in the applicable Service Plan (the “Initial Term“), following which, based on the terms of the applicable Service Plan, this Agreement shall automatically renew for successive periods of equal length (each, a “Renewal Term”, and together with the Initial Term, the “Term“).

12.2. Termination by Linkcard for Convenience. Linkcard reserves the right to terminate this Agreement for convenience, at any time, and without prior notice or obligation to Customer, and Customer agrees that Linkcard shall have no liability to Customer for any such termination; provided, however, that if terminated by Linkcard under this paragraph, then Linkcard shall refund to Customer a prorated amount of any prepaid and unused Fees based on the remainder of the then-current Initial Term or Renewal Term (as the case may be).

12.3. Termination by Linkcard for Cause.

For the avoidance of doubt, any pre-paid Fees will not be refunded. If Customer objects to any provision of this Agreement, or becomes dissatisfied with the Service in any way, Customer agrees that its sole remedy, and Linkcard’s sole obligation liability, is for Customer to terminate this Agreement as aforementioned.

16.1. Entire Agreement. This Agreement represents the entire agreement between Linkcard and Customer with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes and replaces any and all prior and contemporaneous oral and/or written agreements, understandings and statements between Customer and Linkcard with respect to such subject matter. Customer acknowledges and agrees that in entering into this Agreement it has not relied on any statement or representation (whether negligently or innocently made) not expressly set out in this Agreement, such as statements and explanations in any FAQs, summaries or explanatory guides regarding this Agreement, or other marketing material on the Linkcard website. To the extent of any conflict or inconsistency between these terms and conditions on the one hand, and the Order Form on the other hand, the former shall prevail (unless the Order Form expressly overrides a provision herein). The Section headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reading only, and shall not to be used or relied upon for interpretive purposes.

16.2 Modifications to Agreement. Linkcard may, from time to time and in its sole discretion, modify the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Except as otherwise indicated below, modifications to this Agreement will take effect at the next renewal of your Subscription and will automatically apply as of the next Renewal Term (if any). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in some cases (for example, to address compliance with Laws, or as necessary for new Features) Linkcard may specify that such modifications become effective during Customer’s then-current Term. If the effective date of a modification is during Customer’s then-current Term, and the modification is material and adverse (that is, it expands Customer’s obligations and liabilities in a material way) and Customer objects to the modification, then, as Customer’s sole remedy, and Linkcard’s sole obligation and liability, Customer may terminate the Agreement upon written notice to Linkcard and receive a prorated refund of any pre-paid Fees hereunder based on the remaining period of the then-current Initial Term or Renewal Term (as the case may be); provided, however, that in order to exercise this right, Customer must provide Linkcard with written notice of its objection and termination (which notice must include an explicit reference to the modification to which Customer objects) within thirty (30) days of Linkcard’s notice of the modification.

16.3. Age Representation. Customer represents that it is at least thirteen (13) years old, but in any event of a legal age to form a binding contract. Children under the age of thirteen (13) are not permitted to purchase a Subscription or submit an Order Form. If Customer is between thirteen (13) and eighteen (18) years old, Customer’s review of (and any performance under) this Agreement must involve Customer’s parent or guardian.

16.4. Linkcard Affiliates. At Linkcard’s sole discretion, any Linkcard obligation hereunder may be performed (in whole or in part), and any Linkcard right or remedy may be exercised (in whole or in part), by a Linkcard Affiliate. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Linkcard may assign its right to invoice and receive payments under this Agreement to a Linkcard Affiliate.

16.5. GDPR. Customer hereby represents and warrants that it will: (i) provide all appropriate notices, (ii) obtain all required informed consents and/or have any and all ongoing legal bases, and (iii) comply at all times with any and all applicable privacy and data protection Laws [including, without limitation, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”)], for allowing Linkcard to use and process Customer Data in accordance with this Agreement (including, without limitation, the provision of such Customer Data to Linkcard (or access thereto) and the transfer of such Customer Data by Linkcard to its Affiliates, and subcontractors, including transfers outside of the European Economic Area), for the provision of the Service and the performance of this Agreement. To the extent that Customer needs a data processing agreement, Customer shall download Linkcard’s Data Processing Agreement (“DPA”) available on the Linkcard website and return it signed to Linkcard as described therein. In the event Customer fails to comply with any data protection or privacy Law (such as the GDPR) and/or any provision of the DPA, and/or fails to return an executed version of the DPA to Linkcard, then: (a) to the maximum extent permitted by law, Customer shall be solely and fully responsible and liable for any such breach, violation, infringement, and/or processing of personal data without a DPA by Linkcard and/or its Affiliates (including, without limitation, their respective employees, officers, directors, subcontractors and agents); (b) in the event of any claim of any kind related to any such breach, violation, or infringement, and/or any claim related to processing of personal data without a DPA, Customer shall defend, hold harmless and indemnify Linkcard and its Affiliates (including, without limitation, their employees, officers, directors, subcontractors and agents) from and against any and all losses, penalties, fines, damages, liabilities, settlements, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees; and (c) any limitations on, or exclusions of, of Customer’s liability under this Agreement shall not apply in connection with the above subparagraphs (a) and (b).

16.6. Assignment. Linkcard may assign this Agreement (or any of its rights and/or obligations hereunder) without Customer’s consent, and without notice or obligation to Customer. This Agreement is personal to Customer, and Customer shall not assign (or in any other way transfer) this Agreement (or any of its obligations or rights hereunder) without Linkcard’s express prior written consent. Any prohibited assignment shall be null and void.

16.7. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, then: (a) the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect; and (b) the Parties hereto agree that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit the provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace the provision with a provision that is legal, valid and enforceable and that most closely approximates the original legal intent and economic impact of such provision, and this Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified in respect of such jurisdiction. In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it as aforesaid, then such provision will be ineffective solely as to such jurisdiction (and only to the extent and for the duration of such illegality, invalidity or unenforceability), and will be substituted (in respect of such jurisdiction) with a valid, legal and enforceable provision that most closely approximates the original legal intent and economic impact of such provision.

16.8. Third Party Software Rights. If Customer’s authorized use of the Service results in any software code being distributed to Customer, and such software code is owned by a third party (“Third Party Software”), and is subject to its own licensing terms or notices (“Third Party Software Terms”) that render ineffective (or otherwise prohibit) any usage restrictions in this Agreement, then nothing in this Agreement is intended to prohibit (and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as prohibiting) Customer from engaging in such restricted uses.

16.9. Remedies. Except as may be expressly stated otherwise in this Agreement, no right or remedy conferred upon or reserved by any party under this Agreement is intended to be, or shall be deemed, exclusive of any other right or remedy under this Agreement, at law or in equity, but shall be cumulative of such other rights and remedies.

16.10. Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of any party in exercising any right or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. Any waiver granted hereunder must be in writing (for waivers by Customer, emails will be acceptable; for waivers by Linkcard, the writing must be duly signed by an authorized representative of Linkcard) and shall be valid only in the specific instance in which it is given.

16.11. Relationship. The relationship of the parties is solely that of independent contractors. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to create any employment, fiduciary, joint venture, agency or other relationship between the parties.

16.12. Notices. Customer agree that Linkcard may send Customer notices by email, via Customer’s Account, by regular mail, and/or via postings on or through the functionality of the Service.

SCHEDULE A

Mandatory Arbitration (Located in the United States) Customer and Linkcard agree to resolve any Dispute only by FINAL AND BINDING BILATERAL ARBITRATION in accordance with the below; except, however, that: (a) Each party retains the right to bring an individual action in a small claims court; (b) Each party retains the right, at any time and in any court worldwide of competent jurisdiction, to seek equitable relief to protect any Intellectual Property Rights; and (c) Nothing herein precludes Customer from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies (and such agencies can, if the Law allows, seek relief against Linkcard). The Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq. (“FAA”) (and not any state law concerning arbitration) applies to this agreement to arbitrate, and governs all questions of whether a Dispute is subject to arbitration. Capitalized terms not defined in this Schedule shall have the meanings given to them in the main body of the Agreement to which this Schedule is attached. Unless Customer and Linkcard expressly agree otherwise in writing in respect of a given Dispute, the arbitration shall take place in-person in Delaware, USA, and will be administered by Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”), before a single arbitrator in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“JAMS Streamlined Rules”), as modified by this Agreement. The arbitrator must honor the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including, but not limited to, all liability exclusions and limitations), and shall not make any award or decision that is contrary to, or in excess of what, this Agreement provides. The arbitrator’s decision must be in writing, and will include the essential findings and conclusions upon which his/her award is based. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. In the event any litigation should arise between Customer and Linkcard in any court of competent jurisdiction in a proceeding to vacate or enforce an arbitration award, CUSTOMER AND LINKCARD HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, instead electing that the proceeding be resolved by a judge. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the plaintiff/claimant and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the plaintiff’s/claimant’s individual claim. Regardless of who initiates arbitration for a Dispute, Customer will always remain responsible for its costs relating to counsel, experts, witnesses, and travel to the arbitration. If Customer initiates arbitration for a Dispute, Customer will be required to pay $250 of the fee required to initiate the arbitration and Linkcard will pay any remaining JAMS Case Management Fees and all professional fees for the arbitrator’s services. If Linkcard initiates an arbitration for a Dispute, Linkcard will pay all administrative fees and costs related to the arbitration, including all professional fees for the arbitrator’s services. All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, including but not limited to the decision and award of the arbitrator and compliance therewith, shall be strictly confidential. The parties agree to maintain its confidentiality, unless (and in such cases, only the extent) otherwise required by applicable Law. This paragraph shall not prevent a party from submitting to a court of competent jurisdiction any information necessary to enforce an arbitration award, or to seek equitable relief. CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT, EVEN IF ANYTHING IN THE JAMS STREAMLINED RULES (OR OTHER JAMS RULES) PERMIT OTHERWISE: (A) CUSTOMER AND LINKCARD ARE HEREBY EACH IRREVOCABLY WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY, AS WELL AS THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE (FOR EXAMPLE, AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS MEMBER) IN A CLASS ACTION, CLASS ARBITRATION, OR OTHER CLASS-WIDE OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING, AND THAT CUSTOMER MAY ONLY BRING A CLAIM IN ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY; AND (B) NO ARBITRATION WILL BE JOINED TO ANY OTHER ARBITRATION, AND THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE ANY INDIVIDUAL PARTY’S DISPUTE WITH ANY OTHER PARTY’S DISPUTE.

OPT-OUT: Customer can choose to reject this agreement to arbitrate (“Opt-out”) by emailing info@Linkcard.app within thirty (30) days after the date Customer enters this Agreement for the first time. The Opt-out email Customer sends must state that Customer does not agree to this agreement to arbitrate and must include Customer’s name, address, phone number, and email address. Providing an Opt-out notice is the only way Customer can opt-out of this agreement to arbitrate. If Customer does Opt-out of this agreement to arbitrate, all other provisions of the Agreement will continue to apply.
