purchase features maybe offered on an annual, semi-annual, quarterly,
monthly, weekly, or volume based basis and will be re-billed based on
auto-renewable subscription model, until canceled by you. If downloaded
from the Apple App Store, Apple will send an email well in advance of
renewal. If accessed from web based browsers, the PureCipher App will
send an email regarding the renewal. App Payments will be processed
through a 3rd party payment processor such as the Apple App Store from
which you may have originally downloaded the application, if downloading
the app. You acknowledge and agree that you, the User, are fully
responsible for managing your in-app purchases and the amount you spend
on in-app purchase within the PureCipher Apps and/or APIs. - Depending on your location and jurisdiction, if you are under 17 then
you may be legally required to have your parents’ or legal guardians’
permission to make any in-app purchases. By completing an in-app
purchase, you are confirming that you have any and all permission that
may be necessary in order to allow you to make that in-app purchase. If
you are a parent or legal guardian of someone under the age of 17, we
recommend that you consider any parental control that may be provided by
the Apple App Store, provided that you are concerned that your child may
make excessive in-app purchases. - The in-app purchases are purchased from and billed by the Apple or
Google App Store, or a 3rd party payment system, not PureCipher. These
purchases are subject to the terms and conditions of the 3rd party
payment system providers. All billing and refund inquiries shall be
directed to the 3rd party payment system providers such as the Apple App
Store. PureCipher does not have access to transactions from the 3rd
party payment system providers. - If any in-app purchase resulted in app not functioning properly e.g.,
not downloading properly, or features not working either in the
downloaded app or the browser based app, PureCipher will, after becoming
aware of the defect or being notified of the problem by you, investigate
the reason for the problem or defect. PureCipher will act reasonably in
deciding whether to provide you with a replacement in-app purchase or
issue you with a patch to repair the defect. In no event will we charge
you to replace or repair defects or problems experienced from the in-app
purchase. In the unlikely event that we are unable to replace or repair
the relevant in-app purchase or are unable to do so within a reasonable
period of time and without significant inconvenience to you, we will
authorize the 3rd party payment system to refund you an amount up to the
cost of the relevant in-app purchase. Alternatively, if you wish to
request a refund, you may do so by contacting the 3rd party payment
system directly.

use of the PureCipher Apps and/or APIs, uninstall, remove, and destroy

remedies.

understand and agree that PureCipher shall not be liable for any direct,
indirect, incidental, special, consequential or exemplary damages,
including but not limited to, damages for loss of profits, goodwill,
use, data or other intangible losses, resulting from: (i) the use or the
inability to use the PureCipher Apps and/or APIs; (ii) unauthorized
access to or alteration of your transmission or data; (iii) statements
or conduct of any third party or (iv) any other matter relating to
PureCipher. - In no event shall PureCipher’s total liability to you for all damages,
losses and causes of action (whether in contract, tort or otherwise)
exceed the amount paid by you for accessing the PureCipher App. The
foregoing limitations will apply even if the above stated remedy fails
in its essential purpose.
18. FORCE MAJEURE EVENT AND APPLICABLE LAW
- In all circumstances that constitute a force majeure event in legal
terms, PureCipher shall not be held liable for its failure to perform
its obligations hereunder or to perform them late or incomplete herein.
Such failure shall not be considered a default, incomplete, or faulty
performance and no claim of compensation shall be made against
PureCipher. - The term “force majeure events” herein refers to any event that is
beyond the reasonable control of the affected party and that cannot be
avoided despite the reasonable care and diligence shown by PureCipher,
including but not limited to God’s acts, riots, insurgencies, turmoil,
war, communication interruptions, infrastructural and internet network
failures, power failures, mobilization, strikes, fire, explosion,
terrorism, cyberattacks, long-term and far-reaching power outage,
internet outage, computer viruses, and legislative amendments and

and PureCipher relating to the use of the PureCipher Apps and/or APIs
and Services and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous understandings
regarding such subject matter. - No amendment to or modification of this Agreement will be binding unless
in writing and signed by PureCipher. The failure of either party to
enforce any rights granted hereunder or take action against the other
party in the event of any breach herein shall not be deemed a waiver by
that party as to subsequent enforcement of rights or subsequent actions
in the event of future breaches. - Any translation of this Agreement is done for local requirements and in
the event of a dispute between English and any non-English versions, the
English version of this Agreement shall govern to the extent permitted
by law. - If any terms or provision of this Agreement is declared void or
unenforceable in a particular situation, by any judicial or
administrative authority, this declaration shall not affect the validity
or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof, or the
validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any
other situation. To the extent possible the provision will be
interpreted and enforced to the greatest extent legally permissible in
order to effectuate the original intent and if no such interpretation or
enforcement is legally permissible, shall be deemed severed from the
Terms.
20. JURISDICTIONAL ISSUES
Our Sites and Apps are controlled and operated from the United States. Our
Sites and Apps are not subject to the laws or jurisdiction of any state,
country, or territory other than that of the United States. We do not
represent or warrant that any of our Sites and Apps, products, and/or
services or any part thereof is appropriate or available for use in any
particular jurisdiction. Those who choose to access PureCipher Apps and/or
APIs such as PureCipher do so on their own initiative and at their own
risk, and are responsible for complying with all applicable laws, rules,
and regulations. We may limit the availability of our Sites and Apps, in
whole or in part, to any person, geographic area or jurisdiction we
choose, at any time and in our sole discretion.
21. CHOICE OF LAW; VENUE; STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS
Please read this carefully. It affects your rights. These Terms and your
relationship with PureCipher (past, present and in the future) are
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state in
which you were billed for your purchase of the PureCipher product or
service that is subject to this Agreement, without regard to the state’s
conflict of law provisions, and except to the extent preempted by or
inconsistent with federal law. You and PureCipher agree that if any claim
or cause of action arising out of or relating in any way to the PureCipher
service or these Terms of Use has a statute of limitations in excess of
twelve months, such claim or cause of action must be filed within twelve
months after the claim or cause of action has accrued or it will be
forever barred. To the extent any claim, cause of action, or request for
relief is not subject to arbitration under Section 22 below, you and
PureCipher agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of any State or
Federal court located in the County of Manhattan, New York, United States
of America, and waive any jurisdictional, venue or inconvenient forum
objections to such courts.
22. ARBITRATION AGREEMENT
Please read this carefully. It affects your rights. If you are a
PureCipher customer in the United States (including its possessions and
territories), you and PureCipher agree that any dispute, claim or
controversy arising out of or relating in any way to a PureCipher product
or service, these Terms of Use and this Arbitration Agreement, or your
relationship with PureCipher (past, present, or future) shall be
determined by binding arbitration or in small claims court. Arbitration is
more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral
arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery
than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts.
Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award.
You agree that, by agreeing to these Terms of Use, the U.S. Federal
Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this
provision, and that you and PureCipher are each waiving the right to a
trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration
provision shall survive termination of this Agreement and the termination
of your PureCipher and/or SecuretImage account.
If you elect to seek arbitration or file a small claim court action, you
must first send to PureCipher, by certified mail, a written Notice of your
claim (“Notice”). The Notice to PureCipher must be addressed to: General
Counsel, PureCipher Inc., 8 The Green, Ste. 300, Dover DE 19901 (“Notice
Address”). If PureCipher initiates arbitration, it will send a written
Notice to the email address used for your account. A Notice, whether sent
by you or by PureCipher, must (a) describe the nature and basis of the
claim or dispute; (b) set forth the specific relief sought and the basis
for the calculations; (c) include your name, the email address associated
with your PureCipher account, your current phone number, mailing address,
and email address, and your signature; and (d) if you have retained an
attorney, your signed statement authorizing PureCipher to disclose your
confidential account records to your attorney if necessary, in resolving
your claim. If PureCipher and you do not reach an agreement to resolve the
claim within 60 days after the Notice is received, you or PureCipher may
(i) commence an arbitration proceeding or (ii) file a claim in small
claims court for individual disputes or claims within the scope of that
court’s jurisdiction. Either party may also invoke any applicable
arbitration rules allowing parties to elect a small claims court option
for an individual dispute. The parties agree that the notice required by
this Section is a material provision of these Terms.
You may download or copy a form Notice and a form to initiate arbitration
at www.adr.org. With the exception of “Mass Arbitrations,” as defined in
the following paragraph, all arbitrations will be governed by the Consumer
Arbitration Rules (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration
Association (“AAA”), as modified by this Agreement, and will be
administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and Forms are available online
at www.adr.org, or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. Unless
PureCipher and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take
place virtually. In the event 25 or more demands for arbitration are filed
relating to the same or similar subject matter and sharing common issues
of law or fact, and counsel for the parties submitting the demands are the
same or coordinated, you and PureCipher agree that the demands will
constitute a “Mass Arbitration.” If a Mass Arbitration is commenced, you
and PureCipher agree that it shall not be governed by the AAA Rules or
administered by the AAA. Instead, a Mass Arbitration shall be administered
by National Arbitration & Mediation (“NAM”), a nationally recognized
arbitration provider, and governed by the NAM rules in effect when the
Mass Arbitration is filed as modified by this Agreement, including the NAM
Mass Filing Supplemental Dispute Resolution Rules, but excluding any rules
that permit arbitration on a class-wide basis (collectively, the “NAM
Rules”). The NAM Rules are available at www.namadr.com or by calling
1-800-358-2550. You and PureCipher agree that if either party fails or
refuses to commence the Mass Arbitration before NAM, you or PureCipher may
seek an order from a court of competent jurisdiction compelling compliance
with this agreement and compelling administration of the Mass Arbitration
before NAM. Pending resolution of any such requests to a court, you and
PureCipher agree that all arbitrations comprising the Mass Arbitration
(and any obligation to pay arbitration fees) shall be stayed. You and
PureCipher acknowledge that either party’s failure to comply with this
paragraph would irreparably harm the other, and you and PureCipher agree
that a court may issue an order staying the arbitrations (and any
obligation to pay arbitration fees) until any disagreements over the
provisions of this paragraph are resolved by the court, including any
disagreements about the applicability of the Mass Arbitration process. The
arbitrator is bound by the terms of this Agreement. All issues are for the
arbitrator to decide, including issues relating to the scope and
enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Regardless of the manner in
which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned
written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and
conclusions on which the award is based. Except as expressly set forth
herein, the payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees
will be governed by the rules of the applicable dispute resolution
provider (i.e., the AAA Rules or the NAM Rules). Your and PureCipher’s
right to recover attorneys’ fees, costs and arbitration fees, shall be
governed by the laws that apply to the parties’ dispute, as well as any
applicable arbitration rules.
YOU AND PURECIPHER AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY
IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER
IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. The arbitrator may
award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual
party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief
warranted by that party’s individual claim. If any provision of this
paragraph is determined to be unenforceable with respect to any claim or
any particular remedy for a claim (such as a request for public injunctive
relief), then the parties agree that the claim or particular remedy (and
only that claim or remedy) must be decided by a court after all other
claims and requests for relief are arbitrated.
