Deliverability Agent Terms of Use (updated December 12, 2013)

Deliverability Agent SITE OWNER AGREEMENT AND SOFTWARE LICENSE TERMS

Through its Deliverability Agent ™ (the “Services”) Deliverability Agent (“Deliverability Agent”) provides web site operators and other individuals a variety of tools and resources to collect visitor e-mail addresses and to create, launch, and manage online e-mail campaigns. This service may not be used for the sending of unsolicited e-mail (sometimes called “spam”). See our Acceptable Usage and Anti-Spam Policy. The following are the terms and conditions for use of the Services. By checking the “I accept these terms and conditions” box on the Sign Up page, you accept these terms and conditions.

1. Services and Support

1.1 The Services are provided subject to this Agreement, as it may be amended by Deliverability Agent, and any guidelines, rules or operating policies that Deliverability Agent may establish and post from time to time (the “Agreement”). By posting updated versions of the Agreement at the Deliverability Agent.com web site, or otherwise providing notice to you, Deliverability Agent may modify the terms of the Agreement and may discontinue or revise any or all other aspects of the Services at its sole discretion. All such changes shall become effective upon posting of the revised Agreement on the Service.

1.2 The Services are available only to persons who can form legally binding contracts under applicable law. Without limiting the foregoing, the Services are not available to individuals under the age of 18. If you do not qualify, please do not use the Services.

1.3 The Services enable corporate web sites, small business web sites, and community sites to sign up web site visitors, collect and retrieve visitor sign-up data, and develop and execute e-mail communications with visitors and other targeted prospects.

1.4 Both the number of e-mail messages sent and the number of KiloBytes of data transferred are metered by Deliverability Agent. Normal Deliverability Agent accounts allow you to send a fixed number of e-mail messages per month with the total KiloByte data transfer of all messages not exceeding 20 KiloBytes multiplied by the total number of allowed e-mail messages per month. Additional data transfer may be purchased at U.S. $1.00 per 10 MegaBytes of data transfer. Unused e-mail volume and unused data transfer do not carry over from month to month.

1.5 For standard accounts, the Services will be subject to monthly subscription fees (“Paid Services”). Access to the Services will be disabled until payment is received. Paid Services are billed quarterly, 3 months at a time, in advance, according to the Fee Schedule provided to you by Deliverability Agent, unless alternate billing arrangements have been agreed to by you and an authorized Deliverability Agent representative. The Fee Schedule, including volumes of e-mail, data transfer limits, and prices, are subject to change at any time. All fees paid to Deliverability Agent for Deliverability Agent are non-refundable, unless account is terminated by Deliverability Agent for a reason other than violation of the Anti-Spam Policy. Payment for Services will be made by a valid credit card accepted by Deliverability Agent, unless other payment arrangements have been made between you and an authorized Deliverability Agent representative. You hereby authorize Deliverability Agent to charge your credit card for such amounts on a regular basis, but generally at the beginning of the quarter every quarter anniversary date of your account. You may upgrade your account for a particular monthly period from your base level subscription to allow more e-mail sending or more data transfer for a particular month. In such cases, you authorize Deliverability Agent to charge your credit card on the day you upgrade, the difference between the new level you are upgrading to and the base level. If you do not upgrade but you still send more e-mails or use more data transfer than your prepaid level during a particular monthly period, you authorize Deliverability Agent to bill for the actual service level used minus the prepaid amount. Fees are payable in US dollars. If Deliverability Agent is for any reason unable to effect automatic payment via your credit card, you will be notified via e-mail and your Deliverability Agent account will be disabled until payment is received. Monthly pricing may vary based upon number of e-mails sent and size of e-mails sent, and you are responsible for reviewing the Fee Schedule from time to time and remaining aware of the Fees charged by Deliverability Agent.

1.6 For pay-as-you-go accounts (also known as overage-allowed accounts), available only by special request, the Services will be subject to minimum monthly subscription fees (“Paid Services”) of not less than $30. Access to the Services will be disabled until payment is received. Paid Services are billed quarterly, 3 months at a time, in advance, according to the Fee Schedule provided to you by Deliverability Agent, and at the end of each month, depending on how many e-mail messages and how much data was transferred during the month. The fee at the end of the month will be calculated using a modified version of the Fee Schedule minus the pre-paid subscription amount for the month. The modified version of the Fee Schedule will be the normal Fee Schedule, except that pricing tiers are broken down into $100 increments. The Fee Schedule, including volumes of e-mail, data transfer limits, and prices, are subject to change at any time. All fees paid to Deliverability Agent for Deliverability Agent are non-refundable, unless account is terminated by Deliverability Agent for a reason other than violation of the Anti-Spam Policy. Payment for Services will be made by a valid credit card accepted by Deliverability Agent, unless other payment arrangements have been made between you and an authorized Deliverability Agent representative. You hereby authorize Deliverability Agent to charge your credit card for such amounts at the beginning of the quarter every quarter anniversary date of your account and at the end of every month, based on number of e-mail messages sent and amount of data transferred. Fees are payable in US dollars. If Deliverability Agent is for any reason unable to effect automatic payment via your credit card, you will be notified via e-mail and your Deliverability Agent account will be disabled until payment is received. Monthly pricing may vary based upon number of e-mails sent and size of e-mails sent, and you are responsible for reviewing the Fee Schedule from time to time and remaining aware of the Fees charged by Deliverability Agent.

1.7 For all accounts, Deliverability Agent may charge an account re-activation fee should an account need to be re-activated by customer after account has become de-activated due to non-payment or an untimely authorization for payment.

1.8 You must complete the registration form on the Sign Up page in order to use the Services. You will provide true, accurate, current, and complete information about yourself as requested in the registration form. As part of the registration process, you will identify an e-mail address and password for your Deliverability Agent account. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account, passwords, and files, and for all uses of your account and of the Services in your name. Deliverability Agent reserves the right to refuse registration of, or cancel, accounts it deems inappropriate.

1.9 It is understood that Deliverability Agent makes no guarantee that HTML messages will be rendered properly on all recipients’ e-mail programs, due to the wide variety of HTML generation tools available. Deliverability Agent makes every attempt to make sure that all e-mail messages sent through our servers follow W3C and IETF e-mail standards, but we cannot guarantee that messages will look consistent across all e-mail platforms due to the number of different HTML composition tools available. For example, if you use Microsoft Word to generate HTML e-mail messages, it is expected that recipients of your message using a non-Microsoft e-mail application may have difficulty reading your message. For best results Deliverability Agent recommends, but does not guarantee, the use of HTML editors that generate HTML that adheres to W3C standards. Deliverability Agent also provides a built-in browser-based HTML editor which you may use to compose your HTML message. This is provided as-is. Deliverability Agent makes no guarantee that the HTML generated by the browser-based HTML editor will result in messages that look the same on all e-mail platforms.

1.10 To receive support, you must either fill out the form at http://www.Deliverability Agent.com/support/ or call the support telephone number listed on the “Contact Us” page of the Deliverability Agent web site. E-mails about new support issues sent directly to a Deliverability Agent staff member may result in a delayed response. Some support issues are outside the scope of Deliverability Agent’s standard support — these issues may be denied support alltogether or quoted for separately, at which time the customer will have the opportunity to decide whether to have the Deliverability Agent staff person proceed or not.
