Customer shall make all payments hereunder in US dollars, or Euros for customers using DataFeedWatch or Channels in Europe, on or before the due date set forth online, in the Master Services Agreement, or in the Statement of Work. If Customer fails to make any payment when due, without limiting Cart’s other rights and remedies: (i) Cart may charge interest on the past due amount at the rate of 1.5% per month calculated daily and compounded monthly or, if lower, the highest rate permitted under applicable law; (ii) Customer shall reimburse Cart for all costs incurred by Cart in collecting any late payments or interest, including attorneys’ fees, court costs, and collection agency fees; and (iii) if such failure continues for 10 days or more, Cart may suspend Customer’s and its Authorized Users’ access to any portion or all of the Services until such amounts are paid in full.

Customer may share analytics provided by Cart with its affiliates; provided, that said affiliates are bound the same restrictions as Customer herein, and; provided, further, that Customer shall be responsible for any use or disclosure of analytics by such affiliates which, if attributable to Customer, would constitute a breach of these Terms.

(a) Cart Indemnification. Cart shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Customer from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) (”Losses”) incurred by Customer resulting from any third-party claim, suit, action, or proceeding (”Third-Party Claim”) that Customer’s permitted use of the Services infringes or misappropriates such third party’s US patents, copyrights, or trade secrets, provided that Customer promptly notifies Cart in writing of the claim, cooperates with Cart, and allows Cart sole authority to control the defense and settlement of such claim. If such a claim is made or appears possible, Customer agrees to permit Cart, at Cart’s sole discretion, to (A) modify or replace the Services, or component or part thereof, to make it non-infringing, or (B) obtain the right for Customer to continue to use the Services in substantially the same manner as contemplated in these Terms and the applicable Master Services Agreement or Statement of Work. If Cart determines that neither alternative is reasonably available, Cart may terminate these Terms and each outstanding Master Services Agreement or Statement of Work, in its entirety or with respect to the affected component or part, effective immediately on written notice to Customer. This Section 10(a) will not apply with respect to portions or components of the Services (A) not created by Cart, including but not limited to Customer Data or Third-Party Products; (B) that are modified by anyone other than Cart where the alleged infringement relates to such modification; (C) combined with other products, processes or materials where the alleged infringement relates to such combination; (D) where Customer continues allegedly infringing activity after being notified thereof or after being informed of modifications that would have avoided the alleged infringement; (E) where Customer directed the development of the feature or functionality that gives rise to the alleged infringement; or (F) where Customer’s use thereof is not strictly in accordance with these Terms and all related documentation.
(b) Customer Indemnification. Customer shall indemnify, hold harmless, and, at Cart’s option, defend Cart from and against any Losses resulting from (i) any Third-Party Claim that the Customer Data infringes or misappropriates such third party’s intellectual property rights; (ii) any Third-Party Claims excluded from indemnity obligation in Section 10(a) above; (iii) any Third-Party Claims arising out of the marketing, sale or offer for sale of Customer’s products or services; or (iv) any Third-Party Claims otherwise resulting from Customer’s or any Authorized User’s violation of these Terms; provided, in each case that, if Cart requests Customer to assume the defense of any such Third-Party Claim, Customer may not settle any Third-Party Claim against Cart unless Cart consents to such settlement, and further provided that Cart will have the right, at its option, to defend itself against any such Third-Party Claim at Customer’s expense or to participate in the defense thereof by counsel of its own choice. If Cart elects to defend any Third-Party Claim for which Customer has an indemnification obligations pursuant to this Section 10(c), Customer shall be responsible for all costs incurred by Cart in defending such Third-Party Claim, including Cart’s attorneys’ fees.
(c) Sole Remedy. THIS SECTION 10 SETS FORTH CUSTOMER’S SOLE REMEDIES AND CART’S SOLE LIABILITY AND OBLIGATION FOR ANY ACTUAL, THREATENED, OR ALLEGED CLAIMS THAT THE SERVICES INFRINGE, MISAPPROPRIATE, OR OTHERWISE VIOLATE ANY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF ANY THIRD PARTY.

(b) Direct Liability. IN NO EVENT WILL CART’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT UNDER ANY LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY, INCLUDING BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, AND OTHERWISE EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNTS PAID TO PROVIDER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IN THE SIX-MONTH PERIOD PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.
(a) Term. These Terms shall become effective on the date the Customer first uses any Service, enters into a Master Services Agreement, or enters into a Statement of Work and shall remain in effect until Customer’s use of the Services is terminated pursuant to subsection (b) or (c) of this Section 12 (the “Term”).
(b) Termination for Convenience by Customer. To cancel the Services, Customer must submit a cancellation request from within the Services or as described in the Customer’s Master Services Agreement or Statement of Work. This request process will verify that the person submitting the cancellation request has the proper permissions to do so. A ticket will be automatically created to provide proof of cancellation. Customer is responsible for all outstanding charges up to the time the cancellation request is approved. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, CUSTOMER IS NOT PERMITTED TO TERMINATE OR CANCEL ITS SUBSCRIPTION IF CUSTOMER HAS AGREED TO A MINIMUM TERM LENGTH (INCLUDING ANY RENEWAL TERM LENGTH). IN ADDITION, CUSTOMER WILL NOT BE ENTITLED TO A REFUND OF PREPAID FEES IF IT TERMINATES OR CANCELS ITS SUBSCRIPTION PURSUANT TO THIS SUBSECTION (B). FOR SECURITY PURPOSES, TERMINATION REQUESTS SUBMITTED BY E-MAIL OR OTHERWISE NOT SUBMITTED THROUGH THE SERVICES WILL BE NULL AND VOID, UNLESS A DIFFERENT TERMINATION MECHANISM IS DESCRIBED IN THE CUSTOMER’S MASTER SERVICES AGREEMENT OR STATEMENT OF WORK.
(c) Termination for Breach. In addition to any other express termination right set forth in these Terms: (i) either Party may terminate these Terms, effective on written notice to the other Party, if the other Party materially breaches these Terms, and such breach: (A) is incapable of cure; or (B) being capable of cure, remains uncured 30 days (or 10 days for Customer’s failure to pay any amount when due) after the non-breaching Party provides the breaching Party with written notice of such breach; or (ii) either Party may terminate these Terms, effective immediately upon written notice to the other Party, if the other Party: (A) becomes insolvent or is generally unable to pay, or fails to pay, its debts as they become due; (B) files or has filed against it, a petition for voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy or otherwise becomes subject, voluntarily or involuntarily, to any proceeding under any domestic or foreign bankruptcy or insolvency law; (C) makes or seeks to make a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or (D) applies for or has appointed a receiver, trustee, custodian, or similar agent appointed by order of any court of competent jurisdiction to take charge of or sell any material portion of its property or business.
(d) Effect of Expiration or Termination. Upon expiration or earlier termination of these Terms, Customer shall immediately discontinue use of the Services. No expiration or termination will affect Customer’s obligation to pay all Fees that may have become due before such expiration or termination or entitle Customer to any refund.
(e) Survival. This Section 12(e) and Sections 1, 2(d), 6, 7, 8(b), 8(d), 8(e), 9(c), 10, 11, and 15 survive any termination or expiration of these Terms. No other provisions of these Terms survive the expiration or earlier termination of these Terms
(f) Retrieval of Customer Data. Account termination may result in destruction of any Customer Data associated with your account, so keep that in mind before you decide to deactivate your account. Cart will try to provide advance notice to you prior to our terminating your account so that you are able to retrieve any important Customer Data you may have stored in your account (to the extent allowed by law and these Terms), but Cart may not do so if we determine it would be impractical, illegal, not in the interest of someone’s safety or security, or otherwise harmful to the rights or property of Cart.
All unsolicited commercial email (“UCE”) and unsolicited bulk email (“UBE”) is subject to Cart’s Email Acceptable Use Policy
(a) Unsolicited commercial email (UCE) is defined by Cart as any electronic communication (e-mail, ICQ, IRC, Instant Messenger, etc.) sent for purposes of distributing commercial information of any kind, soliciting the purchase or sale of products or services or soliciting any transfer of funds to a recipient who has not agreed to receive such communication.
(b) Unsolicited bulk e-mail (UBE) is defined by Cart as any electronic communication (e-mail, ICQ, IRC, Instant Messenger, etc.) to multiple recipients who have not agreed to receive such communication.
(c) Use of the Cart’s network, servers, or services to transmit any unsolicited commercial or unsolicited bulk-e-mail is expressly prohibited, as is hosting web sites or services on a server, which are advertised in any UCE/UBE. Cart prohibits the sending of any fraudulent, malicious, harassing, false, or misleading electronic communications, including, chain letters, pyramid schemes, or e-mails with forged headers. Posting off-topic advertisements to Usenet discussion groups, ICQ, Instant Messenger, etc., is expressly prohibited.
(d) Cart’s Customers are expressly prohibited from sending any UCE/UBE from Cart network or any email from another network that in any way references a document, image, or Web site that resides on the Cart network or in one of Cart’s data centers. Violations of this type may result in the termination of the offending Customer account. Cart Customers are responsible for any violations of the AUP by their clients, and any violation of the AUP by a client of a Cart Customer will be deemed a violation of the AUP by such Cart Customer.
(e) Customers whose actions directly or indirectly result in Cart IP space being listed in any of the various abuse databases may be subject to having the offending domain(s), server(s), or user(s) immediately removed from Cart Services. In addition, if Cart, in its sole discretion, determines that a Customer is in violation of Cart’s AUP, Cart may, at its sole discretion, restrict, suspend, or terminate the Customer’s account. Cart may attempt to contact the Customer prior to suspension or termination of a server(s), but does not guarantee prior notification.
(f) Any server suspended or terminated for AUP violations will be reconnected only after the Customer agrees in writing to cease all activities that violate the Cart AUP and pays all applicable reconnect fees and related charges. Any server suspended a second time for AUP violations will be immediately and permanently removed from Cart’s network. Customers that Cart determines, in its sole discretion, to be in violation of the Cart AUP may be subject to additional fees or fines including, any applicable reconnect fees.
From time to time, Cart may, in its sole discretion, invite you to use, on a trial basis, pre-release or beta features that are in development and not yet available to all customers (“Beta Services”). Beta Services may be subject to additional terms and conditions, which Cart will provide to you prior to your use of the Beta Services. Such Beta Services and all associated conversations and materials relating thereto will be considered Cart’s Confidential Information and subject to the confidentiality provisions in these Terms. Customer agrees that it will not make any public statements or otherwise disclose its participation in the Beta Services without Cart’s prior written consent. Cart makes no representations or warranties that the Beta Services will function. Cart may discontinue the Beta Services at any time in its sole discretion, with or without notice to Customer. Cart will have no liability for any harm or damage (whether direct, consequential, incidental, or otherwise) arising out of or in connection with a Beta Service. The Beta Services may not work in the same way as a final version. Cart may change or not release a final or commercial version of a Beta Service in our sole discretion.

(c) Force Majeure. In no event shall Cart be liable to Customer or be deemed to have breached these Terms, for any failure or delay in performing its obligations under these Terms (except for any obligations to make payments), if and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by any circumstances beyond Cart’s reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, flood, fire, earthquake, explosion, war, terrorism, epidemic or pandemic, invasion, riot or other civil unrest, strikes, labor stoppages or slowdowns or other industrial disturbances, or passage of law or any action taken by a governmental or public authority, including imposing an embargo.
(d) Amendment and Modification; Waiver. No amendment to or modification of these Terms is effective unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative of each Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Cart may update these Terms from time to time, and such updated Terms will apply to any new Master Services Agreement or Statement of Work entered into following such update as well as any renewal or extension of a Master Services Agreement or Statement of Work following such update. No waiver by any Party of any of the provisions hereof will be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the Party so waiving. Except as otherwise set forth in these Terms, (i) no failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any rights, remedy, power, or privilege arising from these Terms will operate or be construed as a waiver thereof and (ii) no single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder will preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power, or privilege.
(e) Severability. If any provision of these Terms is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability will not affect any other term or provision of these Terms or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify these Terms so as to effect their original intent as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.
(f) Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Texas without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule that would require or permit the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of Texas. Any legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or related to these Terms or the licenses granted hereunder will be instituted exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Austin, Texas, and each Party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action, or proceeding.
(g) Assignment. Customer may not assign any of its rights or delegate any of its obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Cart, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed, except that either Party may assign these Terms without consent of the other Party to its successor in interest pursuant to a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets to which these Terms relate. Any purported assignment or delegation in violation of this Section will be null and void. No assignment or delegation will relieve the assigning or delegating Party of any of its obligations hereunder. These Terms are binding upon and inures to the benefit of the Parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns.
(h) Export Regulation. The Services utilize software and technology that may be subject to US export control laws, including the US Export Administration Act and its associated regulations. Customer shall not, directly or indirectly, export, re-export, or release the Services or the underlying software or technology to, or make the Services or the underlying software or technology accessible from, any jurisdiction or country to which export, re-export, or release is prohibited by law, rule, or regulation. Customer shall comply with all applicable federal laws, regulations, and rules, and complete all required undertakings (including obtaining any necessary export license or other governmental approval), prior to exporting, re-exporting, releasing, or otherwise making the Services or the underlying software or technology available outside the US.
(i) Equitable Relief. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that a breach or threatened breach by such Party of any of its obligations under Section 7 or, in the case of Customer, Sections 2(c) or 8(c), would cause the other Party irreparable harm for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and agrees that, in the event of such breach or threatened breach, the other Party will be entitled to equitable relief, including a restraining order, an injunction, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from any court, without any requirement to post a bond or other security, or to prove actual damages or that monetary damages are not an adequate remedy. Such remedies are not exclusive and are in addition to all other remedies that may be available at law, in equity or otherwise.
(j) Publicity. During the Term, Cart may include Customer’s name and logo in its customer lists, including on its website or in a press release. To the extent Customer provides standard trademark usage guidelines, Cart shall use Customer’s name and logo in accordance with such guidelines.
(k) Interpretation. For purposes of interpreting these Terms, (a) unless the context otherwise requires, the singular includes the plural, and the plural includes the singular; (b) unless otherwise specifically stated, the words “herein,” “hereof,” and “hereunder” and other words of similar import refer to this SaaS Agreement as a whole and not to any particular section or paragraph; (c) the words “include” and “including” will not be construed as terms of limitation, and will therefore mean “including but not limited to” and “including without limitation”; (d) unless otherwise specifically stated, the words “writing” or “written” mean preserved or presented in retrievable or reproducible form, whether electronic (including email but excluding voice mail) or hard copy; and (e) the captions and section and paragraph headings used in these Terms are inserted for convenience only and will not affect the meaning or interpretation of these Terms.
The terms of this Section 16 (“DataFeedWatch, SellerActive, and Channels Terms”) apply to the purchase and use of DataFeedWatch, SellerActive, or Channels services (collectively or individually “Channels”) only. If you are not using Channels, this Section 16 does not apply to you. To the extent that this Section 16 does apply to you, the terms of this Section 16 take precedence over any conflicting terms above solely with respect to your use of Channels.
(a) Payment. A credit card or debit card is required for a Channels account. You will be billed monthly starting on the first day after your free trial, usually the 15th day after your account was initially created. If you cancel your account within the free trial period, you will not be billed at all. You will be charged the fixed monthly fee of the plan that you selected plus, if applicable, a variable fee for the number of products, channels, or feeds that exceed the limits of your plan. Additional services may be added for an additional fee. Other variable fees may include charges for additional shops, additional channels, Additional products, downloads, PriceWatch queries, extraordinary gross merchandise value, and other variable components that may be introduced and purchased in the future. The Service is billed in advance on a monthly basis and is non-refundable. There will be no refunds or credits for partial months of service, upgrade/downgrade refunds, or refunds for months unused with an open account.
All fees are exclusive of all taxes, levies, or duties imposed by taxing authorities, and you are responsible for payment of all such taxes, levies, or duties, excluding only United States sales taxes.
For any upgrade or downgrade in plan level, your credit card that you provided will automatically be charged the new rate on your next billing cycle. Canceling or downgrading your Service may cause the loss of Channels-created changes, features, or capacity of your Account. Channels does not accept any liability for such loss.
(b) Cancellation. You are solely responsible for properly canceling your account. An email or phone request to cancel your account is not considered cancellation. You can cancel your account at any time by clicking on the Account link in the global navigation bar at the top of the screen. The Account screen provides a simple cancellation link.
Upon cancellation, Channels will delete all product data that you submitted (source feeds) and all feeds that you created for various channels. If you cancel the Service before the end of your current paid-up month, your cancellation will take effect immediately and you will not be charged again.
Channels, in its sole discretion, has the right to suspend or terminate your account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Service, or any other service, for any reason at any time. Such termination of the Service will result in the deactivation or deletion of your Account or your access to your Account, and the forfeiture and relinquishment of all Channels – created changes in your Account. Channels reserves the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason at any time.
(c) Modification to the Service and Prices. The current prices of the Channels Services are listed on the pricing page on the Channels website. Prices are a mix of fixed and variable costs. Variable elements may include charges for extra shops, extra channels, or extra products. The number of products that your monthly cost is based on, is the number of products in your source feed; this is the number of products (including variants) that are downloaded from your store. You can verify this number by going to Options > Show products in your Channels account.
Prices of all Services, including but not limited to monthly subscription plan fees to the Service, are subject to change upon 30 days’ notice from Channels. Such notice may be provided at any time by posting the changes to one of the Channels Sites or the Service itself. Channels shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, price change, suspension, or discontinuance of the Service.
The terms of this Section 17 (“Shipping Label Terms”) apply to all printing and paying for shipping labels offered by Cart and its associated applications (the “Shipping Label Services”) only. If you are not using Shipping Label Services, this Section 17 does not apply to you. To the extent that this Section 17 does apply to you, the terms of this Section 17 take precedence over any conflicting terms above solely with respect to your use of Shipping Label Services.
You must agree to and accept all of the Shipping Label Terms, or you do not have the right to use the Shipping Label Services. Your use of the Shipping Label Services in any way means that you agree to all of these Shipping Label Terms, and these Shipping Label Terms will remain in effect while you use the Shipping Label Services.
We reserve the right to change the Shipping Label Terms at any time. If the changes materially impact the Shipping Label Terms, we will use reasonable efforts to bring it to your attention by placing a notice on the Cart website, by sending you an email, and/or by some other means.
If you do not agree with the new Shipping Label Terms, you are free to reject them; unfortunately, that means you will no longer be able to use the Shipping Label Services. If you use the Shipping Label Services in any way after a change to the Shipping Label Terms is effective, that means you agree to all of the changes.
Except for changes by us as described here, no other amendment or modification of these Shipping Label Terms will be effective unless in writing and signed by both you and us.
What are the basics of using the Shipping Label Services?
Cart’s Shipping Label Services allow you to find, compare, select, and buy courier Shipping Label Services for shipping documents and goods nationally and internationally. You may use the Shipping Label Services to purchase postage from a third-party mail service or courier (“Courier”) and Cart will provide you with the appropriate evidence of postage, for example a shipping label, to use with your shipments. Cart serves as an intermediary between you and your selected Courier. Cart does not transport or deliver shipments and Cart is not a party to any contract you form with a Courier to pick up, transport, or deliver your shipments.
You may be required to sign up for an account, and select a password and user name (“Cart User ID”). You promise to provide us with accurate, complete, and updated registration information about yourself. You may not select as your Cart User ID a name that you don’t have the right to use, or another person’s name with the intent to impersonate that person. You may not transfer your account to anyone else without our prior written permission.
You represent and warrant that you are of legal age to form a binding contract (or if not, you’ve received your parent’s or guardian’s permission to use the Shipping Label Services and gotten your parent or guardian to agree to these Shipping Label Terms on your behalf). If you’re agreeing to these Shipping Label Terms on behalf of an organization or entity, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to agree to these Shipping Label Terms on that organization or entity’s behalf and bind them to these Shipping Label Terms (in which case, the references to “you” and “your” in these Shipping Label Terms, except for in this sentence, refer to that organization or entity).
You will only use the Shipping Label Services for your own internal, personal, use, and not on behalf of or for the benefit of any third party, and only in a manner that complies with all laws that apply to you. You will ensure that the information you supply to us in connection with purchasing postage or otherwise ordering Courier Shipping Label Services is complete and accurate. If your use of the Shipping Label Services is prohibited by applicable laws, then you aren’t authorized to use the Shipping Label Services. We can’t and won’t be responsible for your using the Shipping Label Services in a way that breaks the law.
You will not share your account or password with anyone, and you must protect the security of your account and your password. You’re responsible for any activity associated with your account.
Your use of the Shipping Label Services is subject to the following additional restrictions:
You represent, warrant, and agree that you will not use the Shipping Label Services, including without limitation contributing any Content or User Submission (each of those Shipping Label Terms is defined below), or otherwise use the Shipping Label Services (or any Courier Shipping Label Services) or interact with the Shipping Label Services in a manner that:
(a) Infringes or violates the intellectual property rights or any other rights of anyone else (including Cart or any Courier);
(b) Constitutes a breach of, or otherwise conflicts with, any Courier Shipping Label Terms, rules, or policies, or your agreements with any Courier;
(c) Violates any law or regulation, including any applicable export control laws;
(d) Is harmful, fraudulent, deceptive, threatening, harassing, defamatory, obscene, or otherwise objectionable;
(e) Jeopardizes the security of your Cart account or anyone else’s (such as allowing someone else to log in to the Shipping Label Services as you);
(f) Attempts, in any manner, to obtain the password, account, or other security information from any other user;
(g) Violates the security of any computer network, or cracks any passwords or security encryption codes;
(h) Runs Maillist, Listserv, any form of auto-responder or “spam” on the Shipping Label Services, or any processes that run or are activated while you are not logged into the Shipping Label Services, or that otherwise interfere with the proper working of the Shipping Label Services (including by placing an unreasonable load on the Shipping Label Services’ infrastructure);
(i) “Crawls,” “scrapes,” or “spiders” any page, data, or portion of or relating to the Shipping Label Services or Content (through use of manual or automated means);
(j) Copies or stores any significant portion of the Content;
(k) Decompiles, reverse engineers, or otherwise attempts to obtain the source code or underlying ideas or information of or relating to the Shipping Label Services.
A violation of any of the foregoing is grounds for termination of your right to use or access the Shipping Label Services.
Intellectual Property Rights
The materials displayed or performed or available on or through the Shipping Label Services, including, but not limited to, text, graphics, data, articles, photos, images, illustrations, User Submissions, and so forth (all of the foregoing, the “Content”) are protected by copyright and/or other intellectual property laws. You promise to abide by all copyright notices, trademark rules, information, and restrictions contained in any Content you access through the Shipping Label Services, and you won’t use, copy, reproduce, modify, translate, publish, broadcast, transmit, distribute, perform, upload, display, license, sell or otherwise exploit for any purpose any Content not owned by you, (i) without the prior consent of the owner of that Content or (ii) in a way that violates someone else’s (including Cart’s) rights.
You understand that Cart owns the Shipping Label Services. You won’t modify, publish, transmit, participate in the transfer or sale of, reproduce (except as expressly provided in this Section), create derivative works based on, or otherwise exploit any of the Shipping Label Services.
The Shipping Label Services may allow you to copy or download certain Content; please remember that just because this functionality exists, doesn’t mean that all the restrictions above don’t apply – they do!
Your content provided to Cart
Anything you post, upload, share, store, or otherwise provide through the Shipping Label Services is your “User Submission.” Please note that the following license is subject to our Privacy Policy to the extent it relates to User Submissions that are also your personally-identifiable information.
You hereby grant Cart a license to translate, modify (for technical purposes, for example making sure your content is viewable on an iPhone as well as a computer) and reproduce and otherwise act with respect to such User Submissions, in each case to enable us to provide and operate the Shipping Label Services. You agree that the license you grant is royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, and worldwide. This is a license only – your ownership in User Submissions is not affected.
Finally, you understand and agree that Cart, in performing the required technical steps to provide the Shipping Label Services to our users (including you), may need to make changes to your User Submissions to conform and adapt those User Submissions to the technical requirements of connection networks, devices, Shipping Label Services, or media, and the foregoing licenses include the rights to do so.
You are responsible for all Content you contribute, in any manner, to the Shipping Label Services, and you represent and warrant you have all rights necessary to do so, in the manner in which you contribute it. You will keep all your registration information accurate and current. You are responsible for all your activity in connection with the Shipping Label Services.
What do I need to know about interacting with Couriers and other third parties through Cart?
The Shipping Label Services may contain links or connections to Couriers or other third party websites or Shipping Label Services that are not owned or controlled by Cart. Our display on or through the Shipping Label Services of delivery service options offered by third parties does not in any way imply, suggest, or constitute any sponsorship or approval of us by any such Courier or any affiliation between any such Courier and us. Our display of specific options does not suggest a recommendation by us of the Courier or its delivery options. You agree that we are in no way responsible for the accuracy, timeliness or completeness of information it may obtain from these Couriers. Your interaction with any Courier or other third party found on or through our Shipping Label Services, including payment and delivery of goods or Shipping Label Services, and any other Shipping Label Terms, conditions, warranties or representations associated with such dealings, is solely at your own risk. You agree that Cart will have no liability with respect to the acts, omissions, errors, representations, warranties, breaches or negligence of any Courier or other third party or for any personal injuries, death, property damage, or other damages or expenses resulting in any manner from your interactions with any Courier.
You agree to comply with the Shipping Label Terms or conditions of purchase imposed by any Courier with whom you elect to deal. The circumvention of a Courier’s rules is prohibited. The use of prohibited practices may result in the termination of your account on the Shipping Label Services, the Courier taking actions including the cancellation of a service order, denied delivery, additional charges to your credit card, additional charges collected at the delivery or collection, or future invoicing.
When you access third party websites or use third party Shipping Label Services, you accept that there are risks in doing so, and that Cart is not responsible for such risks. We encourage you to be aware when you leave the Shipping Label Services and to read the Shipping Label Terms and conditions and privacy policy of each third party website or service that you visit or utilize. Cart has no control over, and assumes no responsibility for, the content, accuracy, privacy policies, or practices of or opinions expressed in any third party websites or by any third party that you interact with through the Shipping Label Services. In addition, Cart will not and cannot monitor, verify, censor or edit the content of any third party site or service. By using the Shipping Label Services, you release and hold us harmless from any and all liability arising from your use of any third party website or service.
Any information or content publicly posted or privately transmitted through the Shipping Label Services is the sole responsibility of the person from whom such content originated, and you access all such information and content at your own risk, and we aren’t liable for any errors or omissions in that information or content or for any damages or loss you might suffer in connection with it. We cannot control and have no duty to take any action regarding how you may interpret and use the Content or what actions you may take as a result of having been exposed to the Content, and you hereby release us from all liability for you having acquired or not acquired Content through the Shipping Label Services. We can’t guarantee the identity of any users with whom you interact in using the Shipping Label Services and are not responsible for which users gain access to the Shipping Label Services.
If there is a dispute between participants on this site, or between users and Couriers or any other third party, you agree that Cart is under no obligation to become involved. In the event that you have a dispute with one or more other users, you release Cart, its officers, employees, agents, and successors from claims, demands, and damages of every kind or nature, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, disclosed or undisclosed, arising out of or in any way related to such disputes and/or our Shipping Label Services. If you are a California resident, you shall and hereby do waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which, if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.”
Will Cart ever change the Shipping Label Services?
We’re always trying to improve the Shipping Label Services, so they may change over time. We may suspend or discontinue any part of the Shipping Label Services, or we may introduce new features or impose limits on certain features or restrict access to parts or all of the Shipping Label Services. We’ll try to give you notice when we make a material change to the Shipping Label Services that would adversely affect you, but this isn’t always practical. Similarly, we reserve the right to remove any Content from the Shipping Label Services at any time, for any reason, in our sole discretion, and without notice.
How do I pay for Cart Shipping Label Services?
You agree to pay all fees associated with the Service. Cart’s current standard pricing will be provided to you, which may be updated from time to time. If you purchase a subscription, your payment method automatically will be charged at the start of each subscription period for the fees and taxes applicable to that period. To avoid future charges, cancel before the renewal date. You may be subject to alternate pricing as set forth on a separate order form (“Order Form”) or in some other written form accepted by Cart. Cart reserves the right to revise your pricing at any time by providing written notice to you. Cart will send you an invoice detailing your orders and the applicable charges at the end of each week in which you place an order. For users with a high volume of orders, Cart may send invoices more frequently. Once the invoice has been sent to you, you agree to pay Cart and you authorize Cart to charge the full invoice amount to the payment method you provide in your account information. If we are unable to charge the payment method you provide, you agree to pay all amounts due on your outstanding invoice(s) upon demand.
When you purchase the Shipping Label Services on a subscription basis (e.g., monthly or annually), you agree that you are authorizing recurring payments, and payments will be made to Cart by the method and at the recurring intervals you have agreed to, until the subscription for that service is terminated by you or by Cart. By authorizing recurring payments, you are authorizing Cart and/or Cart’s authorized payment processors to store your payment instrument and process such payments. Subscription fees are generally charged in advance of the applicable subscription period. If any payment is returned unpaid or if any credit card or similar transaction is rejected or denied, Cart or its service providers reserve the right to collect any applicable return item, rejection or insufficient funds fee and process any such payment as an electronic payment.
You must provide current, complete, and accurate payment and billing information for your account. You must properly update all information to keep your account current, complete, and accurate (for example you must notify us of a change in billing address, credit card number, or credit card expiration date). Failure to keep such payment method details current and accurate may result in Cart’s failure to collect applicable fees and may result in the suspension or termination of your access to the Shipping Label Services.
You may request a refund of unused postage through Cart, but such refunds are subject to the policies of the applicable Courier. If a Courier refuses to issue a refund, Cart will not be responsible for refunding any postage amounts paid to such Courier. Cart may, at its discretion, issue a refund of any fees paid in addition to the Courier’s postage fees. If a refund is issued, it will be provided no earlier than 7 days after the order date. Any postage or fee refund claims must be filed within 30 days after the postage or order has been created.
Cart shall not be responsible for any local customs charges, import taxes, or duties or any similar charge(s) incurred through the carriage and/or delivery of any shipments and you must satisfy yourself as to whether any of these charges will become due, and if so in what amounts, before completing an order with us. If any such charges become due as a result of a carriage and/or delivery of a shipment on your behalf and are charged to us by any competent authority you agree to reimburse us fully in respect of the same within 7 days of our demand.
What if I want to stop using Cart?
You’re free to do that at any time, by contacting us at hello@cart.com.
If automatic renewals are allowed in your state, you may choose for Shipping Label Services to automatically renew at the end of a fixed service period. We will attempt to remind you by email, or other reasonable manner, before any Shipping Label Services renew for a new term. We may automatically renew your Shipping Label Services at the end of the current service period and charge you the then current price for the renewal term, unless you have chosen to cancel the Shipping Label Services as described above. You must cancel the Shipping Label Services before the renewal date to avoid being billed for the renewal.
Cart is also free to terminate (or suspend access to) your use of the Shipping Label Services or your account, for any reason in our discretion, including your breach of these Shipping Label Terms. Upon deactivation of your account for any reason, you shall immediately pay to us all of your outstanding unpaid invoices. Cart has the sole right to decide whether you are in violation of any of the restrictions set forth in these Shipping Label Terms.
Account termination may result in destruction of any Content associated with your account, so keep that in mind before you decide to deactivate your account. We will try to provide advance notice to you prior to our terminating your account so that you are able to retrieve any important User Submissions you may have stored in your account (to the extent allowed by law and these Shipping Label Terms), but we may not do so if we determine it would be impractical, illegal, not in the interest of someone’s safety or security, or otherwise harmful to the rights or property of Cart.
Trial-Period Offers. If you are taking part in any trial-period offer, you must cancel the trial service(s) by the end of the trial period to avoid incurring new charges, unless we notify you otherwise. If you do not cancel the trial service(s) by the end of the trial period, we may charge you for the service(s).
If you have deactivated your account by mistake, contact us immediately at hello@cart.com – we will try to help, but unfortunately, we can’t promise that we can recover or restore anything.
Provisions that, by their nature, should survive termination of these Shipping Label Terms shall survive termination. By way of example, all of the following will survive termination: any obligation you have to pay us or indemnify us, any limitations on our liability, any Shipping Label Terms regarding ownership or intellectual property rights, and Shipping Label Terms regarding disputes between us.
What else do I need to know?
While the Agreement is in force, Cart may include your company logo and profile on any web site it maintains for customers of Cart’s Shipping Label Services. You consent to publication of your company’s name by Cart as a Cart customer.
Warranty Disclaimer. Neither Cart nor its licensors or suppliers makes any representations or warranties concerning any content contained in or accessed through the Shipping Label Services, and we will not be responsible or liable for (i) the accuracy, copyright compliance, legality, or decency of material contained in or accessed through the Shipping Label Services, (ii) any failure or delay in purchasing postage or delivering shipments (including, without limitation, any failure or delay arising from the use of or inability to use any part of the Shipping Label Services), or (iii) the performance or non-performance by a Courier or any other provider of postage or delivery Shipping Label Services arranged through the Shipping Label Services. We (and our licensors and suppliers) make no representations or warranties regarding suggestions or recommendations of Shipping Label Services or products offered or purchased through the Shipping Label Services. Products and Shipping Label Services purchased or offered (whether or not following such recommendations and suggestions) through the Shipping Label Services are provided “AS IS” and without any warranty of any kind from Cart or others (unless, with respect to such others only, provided expressly and unambiguously in writing by a designated third party for a specific product). THE SHIPPING LABEL SERVICES AND CONTENT ARE PROVIDED BY CART (AND ITS LICENSORS AND SUPPLIERS) ON AN “AS-IS” BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR THAT USE OF THE SHIPPING LABEL SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
Limitation of Liability. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LAW, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO LEGAL THEORY (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, TORT, CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE) SHALL CART (OR ITS LICENSORS OR SUPPLIERS) BE LIABLE TO YOU OR TO ANY OTHER PERSON FOR (A) ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK STOPPAGE, ACCURACY OF RESULTS, OR COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, OR (B) ANY AMOUNT, IN THE AGGREGATE, IN EXCESS OF THE GREATER OF (I) $100 OR (II) THE AMOUNTS PAID BY YOU TO CART IN CONNECTION WITH THE SHIPPING LABEL SERVICES IN THE SIX (6) MONTH PERIOD PRECEDING THIS APPLICABLE CLAIM, (C) ANY ACTS, OMISSIONS, OR FAILURES OF A COURIER, OR (D) ANY MATTER BEYOND OUR REASONABLE CONTROL. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION AND EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
Indemnity. To the fullest extent allowed by applicable law, You agree to indemnify and hold Cart, its affiliates, officers, agents, employees, and partners harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages (actual and consequential), losses and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) arising from or in any way related to any third party claims relating to (a) your use of the Shipping Label Services (including any actions taken by a third party using your account), (b) your violation of these Shipping Label Terms, and (c) your violation of a Courier’s rules, policies, Shipping Label Terms of service, or any agreement between you and a Courier. In the event of such a claim, suit, or action (“Claim”), we will attempt to provide notice of the Claim to the contact information we have for your account (provided that failure to deliver such notice shall not eliminate or reduce your indemnification obligations hereunder).
Assignment. You may not assign, delegate, or transfer these Shipping Label Terms or your rights or obligations hereunder, or your Shipping Label Services account, in any way (by operation of law or otherwise) without Cart’s prior written consent. We may transfer, assign, or delegate these Shipping Label Terms and our rights and obligations without consent.
Miscellaneous. You will be responsible for paying, withholding, filing, and reporting all taxes, duties, and other governmental assessments associated with your activity in connection with the Shipping Label Services, provided that the Cart may, in its sole discretion, do any of the foregoing on your behalf or for itself as it sees fit. The failure of either you or us to exercise, in any way, any right herein shall not be deemed a waiver of any further rights hereunder. If any provision of these Shipping Label Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated, to the minimum extent necessary, so that these Shipping Label Terms shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. You and Cart agree that Cart’s Terms of Services, Privacy Policy, and these Shipping Label Terms (including any applicable Order Form(s)) are the complete and exclusive statement of the mutual understanding between you and Cart, and that it supersedes and cancels all previous written and oral agreements, communications and other understandings relating to the subject matter of these Shipping Label Terms. You hereby acknowledge and agree that you are not an employee, agent, partner, or joint venture of Cart, and you do not have any authority of any kind to bind Cart in any respect whatsoever. You and Cart agree there are no third party beneficiaries intended under these Shipping Label Terms.
