Your Stuff & Your Permissions
When you use our Services, you provide us with things like your files, content, messages, contacts,

These Terms don’t give us any rights to Your Stuff except for the limited rights that enable us to offer the Services.
We need your permission to do things like hosting Your Stuff, backing it up, and sharing it when you ask us to.
Our Services also provide you with features like eSign, file sharing, email newsletters, appointment setting and more.
These and other features may require our systems to access, store, and scan Your Stuff.
You give us permission to do those things, and this permission extends to our affiliates and trusted third parties we work with.

Our Services let you share Your Stuff with others, so please think carefully about what you share.

Software
Some of our Services allow you to download client software (“Software”) which may update automatically.
So long as you comply with these Terms, we give you a limited, nonexclusive, nontransferable, revocable license to use the Software,
solely to access the Services. To the extent any component of the Software may be offered under an open source license, we’ll make that
license available to you and the provisions of that license may expressly override some of these Terms. Unless the following restrictions are
prohibited by law, you agree not to reverse engineer or decompile the Services, attempt to do so, or assist anyone in doing so.
Beta Services
We sometimes release products and features that we are still testing and evaluating. Those Services have been marked beta, preview,
early access, or evaluation (or with words or phrases with similar meanings) and may not be as reliable as other non-beta services,
so please keep that in mind.

We respect the intellectual property of others and ask that you do too. We respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement

You’re free to stop using our Services at any time. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your
access to the Services with notice to you if:
(a) you’re in breach of these Terms,
(b) you’re using the Services in a manner that would cause a real risk of harm or loss to us or other users, or
We’ll provide you with reasonable advance notice via the email address associated with your account to remedy the activity that
prompted us to contact you and give you the opportunity to export Your Stuff from our Services.

We won’t provide notice before termination where:

a legal requirement. If we do so, we’ll give you reasonable prior notice so that you can export Your Stuff from our systems.
Services “AS IS”
We strive to provide great Services, but there are certain things that we can't guarantee. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW,
COUNTINGWORKS AND ITS AFFILIATES, SUPPLIERS AND DISTRIBUTORS MAKE NO WARRANTIES, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ABOUT THE SERVICES.
THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS." WE ALSO DISCLAIM ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE,
AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. Some places don’t allow the disclaimers in this paragraph, so they may not apply to you.
Limitation of Liability
WE DON’T EXCLUDE OR LIMIT OUR LIABILITY TO YOU WHERE IT WOULD BE ILLEGAL TO DO SO—THIS INCLUDES ANY LIABILITY FOR COUNTINGWORKS OR
ITS AFFILIATES’ FRAUD OR FRAUDULENT MISREPRESENTATION IN PROVIDING THE SERVICES. IN COUNTRIES WHERE THE FOLLOWING TYPES OF EXCLUSIONS
AREN’T ALLOWED, WE'RE RESPONSIBLE TO YOU ONLY FOR LOSSES AND DAMAGES THAT ARE A REASONABLY FORESEEABLE RESULT OF OUR FAILURE TO USE
REASONABLE CARE AND SKILL OR OUR BREACH OF OUR CONTRACT WITH YOU.
THIS PARAGRAPH DOESN’T AFFECT CONSUMER RIGHTS THAT CAN'T BE WAIVED OR LIMITED BY ANY CONTRACT OR AGREEMENT.
IN COUNTRIES WHERE EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY ARE ALLOWED, COUNTINGWORKS, ITS AFFILIATES, SUPPLIERS OR DISTRIBUTORS
WON’T BE LIABLE FOR:
i. ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR
ii. ANY LOSS OF USE, DATA, BUSINESS, OR PROFITS, REGARDLESS OF LEGAL THEORY.
THESE EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS WILL APPLY REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR NOT COUNTINGWORKS OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES HAS BEEN WARNED OF
THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
IF YOU USE THE SERVICES FOR ANY COMMERCIAL, BUSINESS, OR RE-SALE PURPOSE, COUNTINGWORKS, ITS AFFILIATES, SUPPLIERS OR DISTRIBUTORS
2WILL HAVE NO LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFIT, LOSS OF BUSINESS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR LOSS OF BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY.
COUNTINGWORKS AND ITS AFFILIATES AREN’T RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CONDUCT, WHETHER ONLINE OR OFFLINE, OF ANY USER OF THE SERVICES.
Resolving Disputes
Let’s Try To Sort Things Out First. We want to address your concerns without needing a formal legal case. Before filing a claim
against CountingWorks or our affiliates, you agree to try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting legal@countingworks.com.
We’ll try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting you via email.
Judicial forum for disputes. You and CountingWorks agree that any judicial proceeding to resolve claims relating to these Terms or
the Services will be brought in the federal or state courts of Orange County, California, subject to the mandatory arbitration
provisions below. Both you and CountingWorks consent to venue and personal jurisdiction in such courts. If you reside in a country
(for example, European Union member states) with laws that give consumers the right to bring disputes in their local courts,
this paragraph doesn’t affect those requirements.
IF YOU’RE A U.S. RESIDENT, YOU ALSO AGREE TO THE FOLLOWING MANDATORY ARBITRATION PROVISIONS:
We Both Agree To Arbitrate. You and CountingWorks agree to resolve any claims relating to these
Terms or the Services through final and binding arbitration by a single arbitrator. This includes disputes arising out of or
relating to interpretation or application of this “Mandatory Arbitration Provisions” section, including its enforceability,
revocability, or validity.
Arbitration Procedures. The American Arbitration Association (AAA) will administer the arbitration
under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes. The arbitration will be
held in the United States county where you live or work, Orange County (CA), or any other location we agree to.
NO CLASS ACTIONS. You may only resolve disputes with us on an individual
basis, and may not bring a claim as a plaintiff or a class member in a class, consolidated, or representative action.
Class arbitrations, class actions, private attorney general actions, and consolidation with other arbitrations aren’t allowed.
If this specific paragraph is held unenforceable, then the entirety of this “Mandatory Arbitration Provisions” section will be
deemed void.
Controlling Law
These Terms will be governed by California law except for its conflicts of laws principles. However, some countries
(including those in the European Union) have laws that require agreements to be governed by the local laws of the consumer's country.
This paragraph doesn’t override those laws.
Entire Agreement
These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and CountingWorks with respect to the subject matter of these Terms, and
supersede and replace any other prior or contemporaneous agreements, or terms and conditions applicable to the subject matter of
these Terms. These Terms create no third party beneficiary rights.
Waiver, Severability & Assignment
CountingWorks failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of its right to do so later. If a provision is found unenforceable,
the remaining provisions of the Terms will remain in full effect and an enforceable term will be substituted reflecting our intent
as closely as possible. You may not assign any of your rights under these Terms, and any such attempt will be void. CountingWorks
may assign its rights to any of its affiliates or subsidiaries, or to any successor in interest of any business associated with the
Services.
Modifications
We may revise these Terms from time to time to better reflect:
(a) changes to the law,
(b) new regulatory requirements, or
(c) improvements or enhancements made to our Services.
If an update affects your use of the Services or your legal rights as a user of our Services, we’ll notify you prior to the update's
effective date by sending an email to the email address associated with your account or via an in-product notification. These
updated terms will be effective no less than 30 days from when we notify you.
If you don’t agree to the updates we make, please cancel your account before they become effective. By continuing to use or access
the Services after the updates come into effect, you agree to be bound by the revised Terms.
