By using, visiting, or browsing the Service, Customer and end user accept and agree to these Terms of Use. If Customer or its end users do not agree to these Terms of Use, the Service should not be utilized.

5.             Communication Preferences. By using the Service, Customer consents to receiving electronic communications from the Service relating to Customer's Account, and further represents and warrants that Customer has obtained from end users prior express written consent sufficient to permit Customer and PCO to contact end users by autodialed telephone calls including text messages. These communications may further involve sending emails to Customer or displaying notices within the Primary User's and Secondary User's Software. Communication may include notices about Customer's Account (e.g., change in password, confirmation e-mails and other transactional information) and are part of Customer's relationship with PCO. Customer agrees, and shall ensure that each end user agrees, that any notices, agreements, disclosures or other communications that PCO sends to Customer electronically will satisfy any legal communication requirements, including that such communications be in writing. Customer also consents to receiving certain other communications from PCO, such as newsletters about new Service features and content, special offers, promotional announcements and customer surveys via email or other methods. PCO's primary means of communicating information from the Service is by email or text. This information includes status reports, general notices, and alerts. If Customer does not wish to receive certain non-transactional communications, unsubscribe using the unsubscribe options on the email and Customer shall ensure that each end user is informed in writing about their options to unsubscribe as set forth above. Customer represents and warrants that it has reviewed and agrees to our Privacy Policy (https://gp4f.com/legal/privacy) including without limitation receipt of marketing communications as set forth therein.

PCO will not be held responsible for any charges incurred on Customer's or Customer end users' cellular service plan as a result of using text message notifications, and Customer shall be responsible for informing its end users in writing that Message and Data Rates may apply. Customer shall maintain written records sufficient to demonstrate its compliance with its obligations under this Section and shall furnish such records to PCO upon request.

6.             Subscription, Billing, Cancellation

a.       Subscription

                                i.      Ongoing Subscription. Customer's Service subscription including all Secondary end user accounts will continue month-to-month unless and until the Service is canceled by Customer or terminated by PCO.

                               ii.      Differing Subscriptions. PCO may offer several Service plans, with differing options, features, conditions and limitations. PCO reserves the right to modify, terminate or otherwise amend its Service plan offerings.

b.       Billing and Cancellation

                                 i.      Recurring Billing. By initiating a Service subscription and providing or designating a Payment Method, Customer authorizes PCO to charge Customer a recurring Service fee at the rate specified in the applicable Software Licensing Agreement, or if no Software Licensing Agreement exits, at the then-current rate. Customer acknowledges that the amount billed each recurring period may vary for reasons that may include differing amounts due to changing/adding a Secondary Account plan or changing/adding additional Services, and Customer authorizes PCO to charge its Payment Method for such varying amounts, which may be billed monthly, quarterly, or annually in one or more charges based upon the applicable Software Licensing Agreement.

                               ii.      Price Changes.  Except as provided for in a multi-period Software Licensing Agreement, PCO reserves the right to adjust pricing for its Service or any components thereof in any manner and at any time as it may determine at its sole and absolute discretion. Except as otherwise expressly provided for in these Terms of Use, Channel Partner Agreement, or a Software Licensing Agreement, any price changes to Services will take effect 30 days following notification.

                              iii.      Billing Cycle. The subscription fee for the Service will be billed at the beginning of Customer's Service term and each recurring period thereafter unless and until the Service is canceled. PCO will automatically bill Customer's payment method each recurring period on the calendar day corresponding to the commencement of the Service unless an alternate arrangement has been agreed to in writing. Service fees are fully earned upon payment. PCO reserves the right to change the timing of its billing, in particular, as indicated below, if Customer's payment method has not successfully settled. In the event the Service began on a day not contained in a given recurring period, PCO may bill the payment method on a day in the applicable period or such other day as PCO deems appropriate. For example, if Customer's subscription started on January 31st, the next payment date is likely to be February 28th (unless on a quarterly or annual payment plan). Customer shall pay PCO, in advance, a monthly or annual service charge for any subscription-based service, beginning on the date on which such Customer's account for such service is activated by PCO. With respect to the 24/7 subscription Service, Customer shall pay PCO, in advance, a monthly or annual service charge for using or having access to the 24/7 Service beginning on the first day of the calendar month following the Installation Grace Period. As used herein, the "Installation Grace Period" is equal to one calendar month plus the number of days remaining in the month in which Customer's service is activated by PCO regardless of when the service is deployed by Customer. A purchase order processing fee equal to one month of service shall be invoiced when Customer submits a monthly Service 24/7 access request by purchase order (a purchase order processing fee does not apply to annual subscriptions or to monthly subscriptions when activated through the Admin Portal). The final month in which such service is provided shall be paid in full, in advance by Customer, and no refunds will be issued should the account be terminated mid-month or year. Service plan changes that result in a higher monthly or annual service charge will be billed, and shall be paid, in arrears during the next billing cycle. Service plan changes that result in a lower monthly service charge will become effective in the subsequent month and will not be pro-rated during the month in which the change is made.

                              iv.      Payment. Customer agrees to pay all Service fees in the manner specified when invoiced. Service fees are exclusive of, and Customer agrees to pay all taxes and similar surcharges. Except for amounts disputed in good faith and in accordance with this section, fees not paid in full within thirty (30) days of the date of invoice will be past due and subject to a 1.5% per month interest fee or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is less, and Customer will be liable for any costs of collection. If Customer is in default of its payment obligations, PCO may immediately suspend any and all Services provided to Customer. If Customer has not cured such non-payment within thirty (30) days of Service suspension, Customer will be deemed to have terminated its Service and any applicable early termination fees shall become payable to PCO immediately. Customer acknowledges that during any account suspension and upon termination Customer and its Secondary accounts will no longer have access to data warehoused in the Service or to any other Service provided. If Customer disputes any fees in good faith, Customer may withhold payment of that charge so long as Customer makes payment of all undisputed charges and notifies PCO in writing within the applicable payment period. If a disputed amount is determined to be a legitimate charge, it may be deemed overdue and interest may be charged on the unpaid balance. No charges may be disputed more than one hundred twenty (120) days after the invoice date and, if not disputed within that time, such charges will be deemed undisputed. Payment will not prejudice Customer's right to dispute charges, so long as they are disputed in the manner and within the time specified in this Section.

                               v.      No Refunds.  Service payments are non-refundable and there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods. Following any cancellation, however, Customer will continue to have access to the Service through the end of the current billing period. At any time, and for any reason, PCO may provide a credit, discount, or other consideration to some or all of its subscribers ("credits"). The amount and form of such credits, and the decision to provide them, is at PCO's sole and absolute discretion. The provision of credits in one instance does not entitle Customer to credits in the future for similar instances, nor does it obligate PCO to provide credits in the future, under any circumstance.

                              vi.      Cancellation. Customer may cancel its Service or its Secondary Account Services at any time. Upon Service cancelation, Services will automatically cease to function at the end of the current billing period. PCO will retain any data for a period of 90 days or until the items are deleted by a routine deletion process, whichever comes first. Some Service features may continue to operate but not in the same manner they did with the paid Service.

c.        Taxes. All Service amounts invoiced are exclusive of taxes and Customer is responsible for all applicable federal, state, local use, excise, sales, privilege taxes, duties, withholding, value added taxes or similar liabilities imposed by operation of law. Depending on Customer's location, PCO may invoice such taxes and shall remit them on Customer's behalf. If Customer is exempt from any taxes, Customer may provide PCO with the applicable certificate demonstrating its eligibility for exemption.

7.             Resale of Services

a.       Customer is the customer-of-record for all Service(s) acquired under this Agreement and may resell such Services to Secondary Account holders. In doing so, Customer will not make any representations or warranties, whether written or oral, to any third parties (including, without limitation, Customer's Secondary Account holders / end users) concerning the Services. Customer will be solely responsible for interfacing with its Secondary Account holders with respect to all matters pertaining to the Service provided including, without limitation, Service provisioning, billing and collection, dispute resolution and crediting. Customer is responsible for the payment of all charges for Services furnished to Customer and its Secondary Account holders / end users. This responsibility is not diminished or otherwise affected by any: (1) use, misuse, fraud or abuse by Customer, its employees, its end users, or Customer-provided systems, equipment, facilities or services interconnected to Service; or (2) Customer inability to collect payments or charges from its Secondary Account holders/end users.

b.       Customer is responsible for applying and enforcing all applicable provisions of this Agreement on its Secondary Account holders. If PCO discontinues providing Service to Customer for violation of Customer's obligations under this Agreement, Customer will be solely responsible for furnishing any required notice to its affected Secondary Account holders.

c.        PCO will have no obligation to interact with Customer's Secondary Account holders, nor will PCO incur any liability to Secondary Account holders for its performance under this Agreement.

d.       Some devices utilized in conjunction with the Service may from time to time stop functioning as intended. If PCO deems the non-functioning device to be disruptive to the Service (such as sending information to the Service at an increased rate), PCO reserves the right to deactivate the device without warning.

e. PCO reserves the right to take whatever lawful actions it may deem appropriate in response to actual or suspected violations of these Terms of Use, including, without limitation, the suspension or termination of Customer's access and/or account.

a.       Any end user who has administrative access to the Primary Account will be considered the Account Owner. The Account Owner has full access and administrative control over the account. The Account Owner's control is exercised through use of the Account Owner's password and therefore to maintain control, the Account Owner should not reveal the password to anyone. Customer is responsible for updating and maintaining the truth and accuracy of the information provided to PCO relating to its account.

b.       Customer should always access sensitive account information by going directly to the Service website and not through a hyperlink in an email or any other electronic communication, even if it looks official.
