These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) describe your legal rights and responsibilities when using the online shared inbox and productivity tools and services provided by Signlz Inc. (the “Services”). These Terms create a legal and binding agreement between Signlz Inc. (“Signlz” or “we”) and the Customer (as further described below) agreeing to be bound by these Terms. A Customer may be referred to herein as the “Customer” or as “you.” Those persons who access the Services using Customer’s account are referred to herein as the “End Users.”
When you sign up for a Signlz account, purchase subscriptions, or accept an invitation to use the Service in conjunction with an individual or team who already has a Signlz account, you are agreeing to these Terms on behalf of the organization you represent. If you are an individual not formally associated with an organization (for example an entrepreneur working with a couple of associates prior to the formation of your company), then you are entering into this Agreement on your own behalf, you are the “Customer” and you will be assigned as the administrator of your account. If you register for the Service using your corporate email domain, then your organization is the “Customer” and can modify or re-assign roles within your account and otherwise exercise the rights granted to the Customer pursuant to these Terms. If your organization, in its role as the Customer, elects to replace you as the administrator of its account, we will provide you with notification of such action and you agree to take any actions reasonably necessary and requested by Signlz or Customer to facilitate such transfer of authority.
By accessing or using the Services, Customer acknowledges that Customer has read, understands, and agrees to be bound by these Terms and Signlz’s Privacy Policy, which are hereby incorporated into and made a part of these Terms.

Fees are billed in advance and are non-refundable. The number of End User subscriptions purchased under a subscription cannot be decreased during the applicable term. No credits or refunds will be issued for usage that is less than the purchased number of licenses. No adjustments are made for unused time on licenses. The subscription term for your End Users begins on the date on which you sign up and pay for the Service (the “Subscription Start Date”), regardless of the date on which you provision your individual End User accounts.
4.2 Auto Renewal.
Customer agrees that its subscription to the Services will automatically renew on an annual or monthly basis (the “Renewal Date”) depending on the term chosen by Customer when subscribing to the Service. Customer hereby authorizes Signlz to automatically charge Customer the applicable fees on or after each such Renewal Date unless Customer’s subscription to the Service has been terminated or cancelled as set forth in Section 5 below.
4.3 Calculation of Fees.
Fees are based on annual or monthly periods that begin on Customer’s Subscription Start Date and end on the annual or monthly anniversary thereof (depending on whether Customer chooses an annual or monthly subscription). Customers are required to purchase a subscription for each End User and may add additional End Users to their account at any time by adding licenses through the application or notifying Signlz at support@signlz.co. Signlz reserves the right to review the total number of End Users associated with Customer’s account from time to time and, if the number of End Users exceeds Customer's current subscription, then Signlz reserves the right, upon notice to Customer, to invoice Customer for any additional End Users on a pro rata basis for the remaining period of Customer’s subscription term. Signlz reserves the right to revise fees associated with the Service at any time upon not less than twenty (20) days prior notice to Customer, with such revised fees to be applied to Customer upon Customer’s next monthly or annual subscription term (as the case may be) and with respect to any additional End Users added to Customer’s subscription during the then current monthly or annual subscription term.

6. Signlz's ResponsibilitiesYour California Rights.
These rights are not absolute, are subject to exceptions, and we may be required or permitted by law to decline your request.
Providing the Services.
Signlz will make the Services available to Customer and its End Users as described in these Terms.
Protecting the Customer Content.
Signlz will maintain industry-standard administrative, physical, and technical safeguards designed to prevent unauthorized access, use, modification, deletion or disclosure of the Customer Content and will ensure that third-party service providers utilized by Signlz in connection with its delivery of the Services do the same. If Customer Content includes personal data defined by EU Regulation 2016/679 (the General Data Protection Regulation or “GDPR”), if such Customer Content is transferred outside the European Economic Area or Switzerland to any country not deemed by the European Commission as providing an adequate level of protection for personal data, and/or if Customer Content includes personal information as defined by the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (the “CCPA”), then the terms of the Signlz Data Processing Addendum shall apply to such personal data and be incorporated into these Terms upon the execution and submission of the Signlz Data Processing Addendum by Customer in accordance with its terms.
Data Portability and Deletion.
The European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) provide individuals in certain circumstances with rights to, among other things, access, delete, and make corrections to their personal data. Signlz’s commitment to meeting these obligations can be found in its Privacy Policy.
7. Definition of Confidential Information.
In connection with their performance under these Terms, each party may from time to time make certain information available to the other party that is not generally known to the public at the time of its disclosure and is either identified as or should reasonably be understood by the receiving party to be, proprietary or confidential (the “Confidential Information”). Confidential Information specifically includes, but is not limited to, the terms of any order form(s) entered into by the parties, Customer Content, business plans, product plans, roadmaps, strategies, forecasts, projects, and analyses, the results of any audit related to the Service (including but not limited to any security audit), financial information and fee structures, business processes, methods and models, and technical documentation. Confidential information does not include information that: (a) is or becomes publicly available without breach of these Terms by the receiving party; (b) was known to the receiving party prior to its disclosure by the disclosing party; (c) is or was independently developed by the receiving party without the use of any Confidential Information of the disclosing party; or (d) is or was lawfully received by the receiving party from a third party under no obligation of confidentiality.
Protection of Confidential Information.
Without the express prior written permission of the disclosing party, or as required by law, the receiving party will not disclose, transmit, or otherwise disseminate to any third party any Confidential Information of the disclosing party and will use at least the same degree of care and discretion with respect to the Confidential Information received from the disclosing party as it uses with its own similar information, but in no event less than a reasonable degree of care. The receiving party may disclose the disclosing party’s Confidential Information to its employees, affiliates, consultants, subcontractors, agents, or advisors (“Representatives”) who have a strict need to access the Confidential Information for the purpose of performing under these Terms and only to those who are obligated to maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information under terms that are at least as protective as the terms set forth in these Terms. Either party may disclose these Terms to potential parties to a bona fide fundraising, acquisition, or similar transaction solely for the purposes of the proposed transaction, provided that any such potential party is subject to written non-disclosure obligations and limitations on use that are no less protective than those set forth herein.
Equitable Relief.
The receiving party acknowledges that the remedy at law for breach of these confidentiality provisions may be inadequate and that, in addition to any other remedy the disclosing party may have, it shall be entitled to seek equitable relief, including, without limitation, an injunction or injunctions (without the requirement of posting a bond, other security or any similar requirement or proving any actual damages), to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of these confidentiality provisions by the receiving party or any of its Representatives and to enforce the terms and provisions of this Section 8 in addition to any other remedy to which the disclosing party is entitled at law or in equity.
Compelled Disclosure.
The receiving party may access and disclose Confidential Information of the disclosing party if legally required to do so in connection with any legal or regulatory proceeding; provided, however, that in such event the receiving party will, if lawfully permitted to do so, provide the disclosing party with notice in a reasonable time prior to such access or disclosure so as to allow the disclosing party an opportunity to seek appropriate protective measures. Receiving party will furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information that is legally required to be disclosed, and any Confidential Information so disclosed shall maintain its confidentiality protection for all purposes other than such legally compelled disclosure. If Signlz is compelled by law to access or disclose Customer’s Confidential Information as part of a civil proceeding to which Customer is a party, Customer will reimburse Signlz for the reasonable costs of compiling and providing secure access to such Confidential Information.

Potential Infringement.
