REGISTRATION AND ACCOUNT CREATION

  1. Registration Information

You can generally view the Service without revealing any personally identifiable information about yourself.  You may voluntarily provide to us personally identifiable information if you desire to register and/or set up an account to use the Service or when you submit a request to us.  You undertake to register for the Service using accurate and current information about yourself – including your correct name, email address and any other requested details – in addition to selecting a Username and password which will be associated with your membership during registration (collectively, “Registration Information”). If any of your Registration Information changes, you agree to update such information by editing your customer profile on the Service.  Your Registration Information, as subsequently amended and added to, will be available to organizations.

We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to refuse the use of a Username or revoke the use of a Username previously selected by a Member.  This may be because we feel the Username is inappropriate or for other reasons; we are under no obligation to disclose to you our reasons for revoking your use of a specific Username.

  1. Disclosure and Privacy Policy

Any information you supply to us via the Service is governed by our Privacy Policy.  Our Privacy Policy forms part of this Agreement, and by agreeing to this Agreement, you also give your consent to the way we may handle your personal data in that policy.

Any organization to which we provide your personally identifiable information will also be required to keep your personally identifiable information confidential in accordance with this Privacy Policy. We will also disclose your personally identifiable information if we reasonably believe we are required to do so by law, regulation or other government authority. We will not sell your personally identifiable information to any other company or organization except we may transfer your personally identifiable information to a successor entity upon a merger, consolidation or other corporate reorganization in which we participate or to a purchaser of all or substantially all of our assets. Such successor entity shall be bound by the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy.

  1. Maintenance of Registration Information.

If you register and/or set up an account on the Service, you will be solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your Registration Information. You may not authorize others to use the Service and you are responsible for all use by you and those you allow to access the Service using the Registration Information you have provided. You may not sub-license, transfer, sell or assign your Registration Information and/or this Agreement to any third party without our written approval. Any attempt to do so will be null and void and shall be considered a material breach of this Agreement.

If you have reason to believe that your account is no longer secure (for example, in the event of a loss, theft or unauthorized disclosure or use of your Registration Information), you agree to promptly change the affected Registration Information and notify us of the problem.

You agree not to reproduce, transmit, display, distribute, “frame” or “mirror” any Materials on any other server or Internet-based device without the advance written authorization of us or our licensors, respectively.

Except as stated herein, you acknowledge that you have no right, title or interest in or to the Materials or any Third Party Content (as further described below) on any legal basis, without our advanced written authorization.

The Service is not intended for users under the age of 18, and we do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from users under the age of 18.

MISUSE OF THE SERVICE

The Service is intended to be used by its Members for the purposes described above. Accordingly, Members must not: (i) include swear-words or terms that could be considered offensive in material posted on or transmitted through the Service, (ii) place material on, or otherwise use, the Service for any business or commercial purpose, (iii) use your access to the Service, or information gathered from it, for the sending of unsolicited bulk email (sometimes known as spam), or (iv) collect or harvest any personally identifiable information, including Usernames, from the Service, nor use the communication systems provided by the Service, for any commercial purpose.

You are responsible for everything which is done on or through the Service while your Membership account is logged on to the Service, or through your email address(es).

THIRD PARTY CONTENT

Any opinions, advice, statements, services, offers, events or other information or content expressed or made available in connection with the Service by third parties (including information providers and users) are those of the respective author(s) or distributor(s) and not ours (the “Third Party Content”). We neither endorse nor are responsible for monitoring, reviewing or the accuracy or reliability of any opinion, advice, information or statement made in connection with the Service by anyone other than our authorized employees acting in their official capacities and you agree that you shall have no right of recourse against us for any liability arising out of your use (or lack thereof) of such Third Party Content.

LINKS TO THIRD PARTY SITES

The Service may include links to other World Wide Web sites or resources (“External Web Sites”). Because we have no control over External Web Sites and resources, you acknowledge and agree that we are not responsible for the availability of such External Web Sites or resources, and does not endorse and is not responsible or liable for any content, advertising, products, services, or other materials on or available from such External Web Sites or resources. You further acknowledge and agree that we shall not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused by or in connection with use of or reliance on any such content, goods or services available on or through any such External Web Site or resource.

We cannot always foresee or anticipate technical or other difficulties which may result in failure to obtain data or loss of data, personalization settings or other service interruptions. We cannot assume responsibility for the timeliness, accuracy, deletion, non-delivery or failure to store any user data, communications or personalization settings. For example, when displayed through the Service, account information is only as fresh as the time shown, which reflects when the information is obtained from such sites. Such information may be more up-to-date when obtained directly from the relevant sites. You can refresh your account information through the Service, in the manner prescribed therein.

EMAILS AND ALERTS

In the course of providing the Service, we may need to communicate with you via email (see our Privacy Policy to learn more about communications). You agree to receive emails which are specific to your account and necessary for the normal functioning of the Service, including welcome emails which help inform new users about various features of the Service. You also agree to have your name and/or email address listed in the header of certain communications which you initiate through the Service.

You understand and agree that any alerts provided to you through the Service may be delayed or prevented by a variety of factors. While we do guarantee the sending of alerts it undertakes to send in this Agreement, we cannot guarantee the delivery or the accuracy of the content of any alert as the recipient’s email address may be invalid or have limitations on the relevant mailbox that could impede the delivery of the email, such as a mailbox limit or spam filter.  We shall not be liable for any delays, failure to deliver, or misdirected delivery of any alert; for any errors in the content of an alert; or for any actions taken or not taken by you or any third party in reliance on an alert.


MEMBERSHIP FEES AND PRICING 

Organizations: If you maintain an Organization, OurRecords will allow you to create logins for your System Admins, Administrative Managers and Organizational Administrators (“Licensed Users”), subject to any limits on the number of users for your subscription tier described on the Site. Each login (i.e., email address and password) may be used only by a single individual. You are responsible for all use and misuse of the Service that occurs under your and your Licensed Users’ login credentials, and you agree to notify OurRecords of any unauthorized access or use of which you become aware. “System Admin” means a Licensed User with the ability to (1) designate other Licensed Users as Organizational Administrators, Resource Managers, or additional System Admins, (2) establish certain limits on how “Opportunity Requirements” and “Opportunities” enabled by your subscription plan can be published. “Organizational Administrator ” means a Licensed  User with the ability to create and control access to “Opportunities” and associated “Opportunity Requirements” covered by your subscription plan. “Administrative Manager” means a Licensed User who can access resource management views within the Service. If you exceed the maximum number of Organizational Administrators specified on our Site for your subscription tier, you will be charged for additional Organizational Administrators at the rate stated on the Site.

When an individual is invited to submit Records to an opportunity, the organization is assigned as an “Connection” for the individual.

YOUR CONTENT

As between you and OurRecords, you retain all right, title and interest in any and all data, files, attachments, text, images, personally identifiable information, and other content that you and your Licensed Users upload or submit to the Service (collectively, “Your Content”).

You represent and warrant that you have all rights, permissions and consents necessary (a) to submit Your Content to OurRecords, (b) to grant OurRecords the limited rights to use Your Content set forth in this Agreement, and (c) for any transfer of Your Content or your Records from one Opportunity Requirements Organizational Administrator to another.

OurRecords has no responsibility to enforce any confidentiality obligation the Opportunity Requirement Administrator may have to you. If you are a Licensed User who submits content to a Opportunity Requirement, the Organizational Administrator of that Opportunity Requirement may publish or distribute Your Content to a third party, revoke your permission to access an Opportunity Requirement and Your Content within it, or transfer all rights in the Opportunity Requirement to a third party.

You agree that, subject to the sharing settings selected for Records where Your Content is stored, OurRecords may use Your Content to provide the Service and its features, including by making it available for viewing, download and modification by other Service users with access rights to those Records. The Service includes features that permit Organizational Administrators to “invite” third party Collaborators to view, modify, collaborate on, share, and “publish” content from Records, and permit System Admins to set certain limits on how Records can be shared, and permit System Admins and Organizational Administrators to “publish” content. OurRecords has no liability for any distribution, display, use or disclosure of Your Content by other users of the Service to whom you provide or submit Your Content.

OurRecords may, notwithstanding any provision of any separate nondisclosure agreement that may have been executed between you and OurRecords, distribute and disclose Your Content (a) to other users via the Service as described in this Section, and (b) to OurRecords service providers who act on OurRecords behalf in providing the Service (as long as such service providers are subject to confidentiality obligations substantially as protective of Your Content as this Agreement).

After termination or expiration of this Agreement, OurRecords may, but has no obligation to, retain Your Content and may delete Your Content from the Service at any time.

SUBSCRIPTION RENEWALS AND CANCELLATIONS

If you maintain a subscription to the Service, your subscription period is established when you purchase your subscription.

If auto-renew is selected, your subscription will automatically renew for successive subscription periods of the same length. Unless we otherwise agree in writing, we charge Service Fees in advance at the beginning of each subscription period. You may view your current subscription plan and billing information at any time in your account administration settings.

Once a subscription period (initial or renewal) commences, all Service Fees paid for that period are non-refundable. You may cancel your subscription at any time before the end of the then-current subscription period using the cancellation procedure available through the account administration area of the Service, in which case your subscription will not renew and we will not charge you any further Service Fees. When you cancel your subscription, your paid subscription will terminate and you and affiliated Licensed Users’ access to the Records you created (and Your Content within them) will terminate.

 

SERVICE FEES; PAYMENT; TAXES

You agree to pay the fees in effect for your subscription at the time you purchase or renew it, along with any fees for additional services you agree to pay while using the Service (collectively, “Service Fees”).

Current pricing for subscription plans is available on the Site. Unless we separately agree otherwise in writing, all Service Fees for subscriptions are payable in advance prior to the commencement of each subscription period. Other Service Fees become due and payable as described on our Site or in this Agreement.

Billing Information. When you subscribe for a paid Service subscription, you will provide us with either a valid, up-to-date credit card number or the other payment information we request. If you have selected a credit card or Paypal as your payment method, you authorize us to charge your credit card (or Paypal account, as applicable) for Service Fees on the first day of your initial subscription period and for any additional Service Fees beyond your Service Fee (for example, Service Fees for online courses), to charge your credit card when such fees become due and payable. Prior to the expiration of your subscription, you will be notified and given the opportunity to renew or decline renewal. If renew is selected, you authorize us to charge your credit card (or Paypal account, as applicable) for Service Fees on the first day of the renewal period. You are responsible for maintaining up-to-date payment information on our Site. If we cannot charge your credit card for any Service Fees when due because your payment information is no longer valid and up-to-date, or if we do not receive your payment when due through the alternative payment method you have selected, we may, at our election: (a) suspend your access to the Service, in which case you will be responsible for all Service Fees incurred during the period of suspension; (b) immediately terminate this Agreement, in which case your right to use the Service will cease; or (c) without waiving our rights to suspend or terminate your account, allow you a longer period during which to make payment, in which case you will remain responsible for all Service Fees incurred while we await your payment. Late payments incur interest charges at the rate of 1% per month on any outstanding balance or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law, whichever is less. The Service Fees shown on our Site do not include any local, state or federal taxes or duties. Except for our income taxes and gross receipts taxes, you acknowledge that you are responsible to pay such taxes (if any). If we collect sales tax or other taxes from you, we will identify the portion of your payment attributable to such taxes.
