About the Terms

1.1 Key Terms

1.2 Platform Rules and Supplemental Terms

Your access to and use of the Platform is governed by the terms and conditions of these Terms of Service, our Privacy Policy, currently located at www.ivia.com/privacy-policy (as described in more detail below), and any and all other policies and rules referenced herein, posted on the Platform, or otherwise communicated to Users (the “Platform Rules”).

Certain of the features, functionality, tools, content and promotions available on or through the Platform may be subject to additional or supplemental terms and conditions (“Supplemental Terms”). If you choose to access or use those features, functionality, tools or content or participate in those promotions, the applicable Supplemental Terms are also incorporated and deemed part of these Terms of Service.

If there is a conflict between these Terms of Service and the Supplemental Terms, the Supplemental Terms will govern and control with respect to the applicable features, functionality, tools, content and promotions.

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, OUR PRIVACY POLICY, PLATFORM RULES AND ALL APPLICABLE SUPPLEMENTAL TERMS (COLLECTIVELY, THE “TERMS”) CAREFULLY, AS THEY CONTAIN TERMS AND CONDITIONS THAT IMPACT YOUR RIGHTS, OBLIGATIONS AND REMEDIES IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM.

1.3 Amendment of Terms

Ivia reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to amend the Terms, at any time and without prior notice, including to change, modify, add to, update or remove terms and conditions (collectively “amend” or “update”). If we choose to amend the Terms, we will update the Effective Date at the top of the Terms and post the updated version. We may also, at our option, choose to notify you by e-mail or another means. By continuing to use the Platform after we have posted an updated version of the Terms or otherwise notified you of an update, you are affirming that you agree to be bound by the amended Terms. This provision is subject to a few limitations in the “Dispute Resolution” section below. If the amended Terms are not acceptable to you, your only recourse is to stop using the Platform.

No other modification, amendment, supplement of or to the Terms will be binding on Ivia unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of Ivia.

1.4 Consequences of Non-Compliance

Your failure to comply with the Terms may result in the suspension or termination of your account and/or access to the Platform, and may subject you to civil and criminal penalties.

We also retain the right to impose limits on your use and storage of Company Content and/or User Content at our sole discretion at any time without prior notice to you.

You agree that Ivia has no obligation to provide any updates or to continue to provide or enable any particular features, functionality, tools or content, and will not be liable with respect to any such modifications, discontinuance or deletions.

2.4 International Users

The Platform is controlled and operated within the United States and is not intended for use outside of the United States. You are hereby prohibited from accessing or using the Platform from any territory where the Platform or any of the features, functionality, tools, content thereof, is illegal. If you choose to access the Platform from a location outside the United States, you do so at your own risk and you are solely responsible for compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, including export laws and any regulations and local laws regarding online conduct and content.

Accounts

3.1 Account Registration

While certain areas of the Website are publicly available, you must register for a User account before you are able to use any of the Services. You may register to create an account directly via the Website. You may not register for an account on behalf of any person (other than yourself). No person or entity may have more than one active account at any given time.

As a designated Administrator User, you will set up a primary account, and will designate the individuals within your Company who are eligible to sign up for subaccounts. Administrator Users for each client will have access to manage and view activities associated with the subaccounts registered to that client. (For simplicity, both accounts and subaccounts will be referred to hereafter as “accounts.”)

3.2 Account Set-Up

Your Company account and account profile page will be created based upon the information you provide to us.

You agree to provide complete, accurate and up-to-date information during the registration process and to update such information as necessary to ensure that it remains complete, accurate and up-to-date. Please note that the name and contact information that you submit when you register may be shared in accordance with your selections in your account settings when you share Company Content.

When you create your account, you will be asked to create a username and password, which you will be solely responsible for safeguarding. We encourage you to use “strong” passwords (passwords that use a combination of upper and lower case letters, numbers and symbols) with your Ivia account or any other account that you may connect to your Ivia account. You agree not to disclose your username or password to any third party, and you agree to immediately notify Ivia of any unauthorized use of your account. You further acknowledge and agree that you will be solely responsible for any activities or actions on or through your account, whether or not you have authorized such activities or actions. Ivia cannot and will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with the above requirements.

3.3 Account Suspension and Cancellation

These Terms shall commence on the date you click “I agree” and shall continue in effect until either party provides thirty (30) days written notice to the other of its intention to terminate. [You may cancel your Company account via the Platform user portal settings.]

We may, in our discretion, without liability to you and without limiting our other remedies, with or without prior notice and at any time, decide to (i) limit, suspend, deactivate or cancel your account and take technical and legal steps to prevent you from using our Platform and Services at any time for any reason, and (ii) screen or delay the posting or delivery of Company Content if Ivia reasonably concludes that Company’s account is being used to engage in denial of service attacks, spamming, or illegal activity, and/or Company's use of the Service is causing immediate, material and/or ongoing harm to Ivia or others.

We further reserve the right to cancel unconfirmed accounts or accounts that have been inactive for a prolonged period of time. We also reserve the right to cancel accounts of Users who fail to comply with the Terms, including the terms and conditions regarding User conduct, as set forth in the “User Conduct Guidelines” section below and elsewhere in the Terms.

If your account is deactivated or cancelled, Ivia will have the right, but not the obligation to delete Company Content.

If Ivia has suspended your account due to your actual or suspected breach of the Terms, such suspension will continue until the suspected breach is cured or otherwise resolved to Ivia’s reasonable satisfaction.

Fees and Payment Terms

4.1 Free Trial Offers

If you receive a free trial offer, you will not be charged during the period of the free trial, but the subscription fee will be automatically charged to the payment method associated with your account for the subsequent period the day after your free trial period has ended, in advance, in accordance with the “Subscriptions” terms stated below. Thereafter, you will be charged at monthly intervals until you decide to cancel. You will be notified when your free trial will expire. Accounts that fail to provide a payment method shall be automatically terminated at the expiration of the free trial. Free trials are limited to one per Company.

4.2 Subscriptions

You agree to pay any periodic subscription fees for your subscription level at the rates in effect when the charges are incurred, including any applicable taxes. Any change in the subscription fee will go into effect for the next billing period after we provide notice of the change.

Please note that the payment information, including name and contact information, that you submit when you register may be used and shared with our payment processing services provider and otherwise used in accordance with our Privacy Policy. Alternatively, you may choose to pay by bank transfer to a designated Company account. In that case, Ivia will invoice you in accordance with the foregoing. Payment of invoices is due within thirty (30) days, and outstanding amounts will accrue interest at the lesser of 1½% per month and the maximum rate permitted by law.

We may contact you via email regarding your Company account in connection with a problem with your credit card or payment account.
