Any multiple-party use, other than individual use on behalf of a company or other legal entity, is prohibited. For example, sharing a login between users is prohibited.

1.5 Beta Versions. From time to time, we may make available for you to try, at your sole discretion, certain functionality related to the Services, which is clearly designated as beta, pilot, limited release, non-production, or by a similar description (each, a “Beta Version”). Beta Versions are intended for evaluation purposes and not for production use, are not supported, and may be subject to additional terms. We may discontinue Beta Versions at any time at our sole discretion and may never make them generally available. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we have no liability for any harm or damage arising out of or in connection with a Beta Version.

1.6 Reservation of Rights. We retain all rights, titles, and interests in and to the Services, its underlying technologies, our trademarks and corporate logos, any product documentation or collateral materials, and all related intellectual property rights in each of the foregoing, including without limitation any modifications, updates, customizations, cards, apps, or other add-ons. Your rights to use the Services are limited to those expressly set forth in these Terms. We reserve all other rights.

1.7 Services Availability. We will attempt to provide the Services at all times, except for periods for maintenance and repair or in the case of emergencies or outages. Actual service coverage, speeds, locations, and quality may vary, however, and the Services may be subject to unavailability for a variety of factors beyond our control including, without limitation, emergencies, third-party service failures, transmission errors, distributed denial of service and other network or third-party attacks, equipment or network problems or limitations, atmospheric or environmental interference, signal strength, public utility failures, and other force majeure events, and therefore the Services may be interrupted, limited or curtailed. Delays or omissions may occur. You are responsible for making Your Data available that is necessary for us to provide the Services, and we are not responsible for data, messages, or pages lost, not delivered, delayed, or misdirected because of interruptions or performance issues with the Services or communications services or networks. We may impose usage or Service limits, suspend the Services, or block certain kinds of usage in our sole discretion to protect users, data, our systems, or the Services.

2. Right To Restrict Or Terminate Access

2.1 Termination. You may terminate these Terms by terminating your use of the Services and any related account, provided all fees paid or owed are non-cancellable and non-refundable. We may deny, suspend, terminate, or restrict your access to all or part of the Services without notice in our reasonable discretion; however, as a practical matter, we normally only do so in two circumstances: (a) you haven’t paid your subscription fee on time; or (b) you haven’t complied with these Terms. In most cases, in the event of non-payment, we will make a reasonable attempt to contact you to provide you with an opportunity to bring your account current. In the event of a breach of subscription terms, our precise course of action will depend upon the nature of the breach and the effect, if any, on our service as a whole and our intellectual property rights.

2.2 Post-Termination Obligations. Following any expiration or termination, you shall immediately cease use of the Services and any license granted to you under any agreement related to your use of the Services shall immediately terminate. Upon termination, we may delete all of your data and other information stored on our servers. Sections 1.6, 2.2, 4.2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 will survive termination.

3. Change To The Terms.

We may add to, change, or remove any part of these Terms, at any time without prior notice to you other than listing of a later effective date than the one set forth at the top of these Terms. Such modification shall be effective immediately upon posting a notification within the Services or by contacting you via email at the address you provided. As your next use of the Services may be governed by different Terms, we encourage you to look for a new effective date on these Terms when you use the Services. It is your responsibility to check these Terms periodically for changes. If we make any material changes to these Terms, we may also provide you with additional notice of any changes, such as at your e-mail address of record or when you log in to your account. Your use or continued use of the Services following the posting or notice of any changes to these Terms shall constitute your acceptance of the changed Terms.

4. Fees

4.1 General. You will pay the fees in the amount and at the time specified in ordering document or webpage that incorporates or references these Terms. By giving us your payment information (e.g. credit card information, bank account information), you are expressly giving us permission to charge you for all fees incurred in connection with your account. You acknowledge that we utilize third parties to process payment and consent to such use. We may modify subscription fees or impose additional fees at any time. Unless otherwise expressly agreed, fees are due in advance when service is first made available to you. For example, if you activate your account on June 1st and you’re on an annual billing cycle, then fees for service from June 1 – June 30 the following year are due in full on June 1st. If you add users or other paid services mid-cycle, additional fees may be due at the time of addition, but we will pro-rate those additional fees to coincide with your existing billing cycle.

4.2 Suspension Rights; Late Fees. If we don’t receive timely payment, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account. A late charge of the lesser of 1.5% per month or the maximum amount permitted by law will be added to past due accounts until paid in full, and you give us permission to use your payment information to process payment for such accrued and unpaid fees at any time on or after they have accrued. All reasonable costs and expenses, including but not limited to attorneys’ fees, court costs, and service charges incurred by us in collecting payment will be paid by you. Credit terms are at our discretion and are subject to change. You are responsible for all taxes associated with your purchase except taxes on our income. You will pay only in United States currency and are not entitled to set off any fees against any other amounts for any reason.

4.3 No Refunds. All fees paid or owed are non-cancellable and non-refundable. If you contract with us for an annual subscription and decide a few months later that you’d like to cancel, we don’t issue a refund relating to prepaid amounts associated with the remainder of any unused term. We also don’t issue refunds or credits because you didn’t use the Services over any particular period of time. The policy helps us efficiently plan for and address anticipated server loads, staffing needs, and product improvements. Simply stated, we have commitments to you that are, in part, driven by your level of commitment to us.

5. Data

5.1 Data Transmission. You are solely responsible for any data uploaded into the Services or otherwise provided for processing by the Services (collectively, “Your Data”), the content of Your Data, and the legality and means by which you acquired it. You acknowledge that we may, but have no obligation to, monitor any information on the Services. We are not responsible for the availability, accuracy, appropriateness, or legality of Your Data or any other information you may access using the Services. You acknowledge that use of the Services involves the transmission of Your Data and other communications over the Internet and other networks and that such transmissions could potentially be accessed by unauthorized parties.

5.2 Your Data. Your Data is your property. We use personal information in accordance with our privacy policies found at www.tabs3.com/privacy.html, which is hereby incorporated by reference and made a part of these Terms. Additionally, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, royalty-free license to use, copy, transmit, sub-license, index, store, aggregate, and display Your Data as required to provide or perform the Services, account management, and support services, billing purposes, in response to subpoenas or another legal process, and technical services, and to publish, display, distribute, and otherwise use de-identified information derived from Your Data and from your use of the Services for any lawful purposes, including, without limitation, improving our products and services, developing new products and services, and developing, displaying, and distributing benchmarks, analysis, and similar reports, provided that we do so in accordance with all applicable laws.

5.3 Data Retrieval. Because we may delete Your Data following the expiration or termination of the Services, you must plan ahead and remove and/or back up Your Data prior to the termination or expiration of the paid term in effect. If your account is terminated before you’ve retrieved the data that you need, you may request that we schedule an attempted “restore” of a previously licensed account, but we make no commitments that such requests can be fulfilled, and such efforts may be subject to additional fees. Restores are not guaranteed as they are conditional upon several factors, including the frequency of the automated backup and deletion procedures executed by our technical partners.

9.2 Cap on Liability.

10. Arbitration Agreement

10.1 Mandatory Arbitration; Exceptions and Opt-Out. You agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services (collectively, “Disputes”) will be settled by binding arbitration, except that each party retains the right: (i) to bring an individual action in small claims court and (ii) to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights (the action described in the foregoing clause (ii), an “IP Protection Action”). The exclusive jurisdiction and venue of any IP Protection Action will be the state and federal courts located in Nebraska, and each of the parties hereto waives any objection to jurisdiction and venue in such courts. You acknowledge and agree that you are waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action or representative proceeding.

10.2 No Class Actions. Further, unless we otherwise agree in writing signed by an authorized representative, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class or representative proceeding. If a decision is issued stating that applicable law precludes enforcement of any limitations set forth in this agreement to arbitrate on the right to arbitrate claims on a class or representative basis, or as part of a consolidated proceeding, as to a given claim for relief, then that claim (and only that claim) must be severed from the arbitration and brought in the state or federal courts located in Nebraska. All other claims will be arbitrated.

10.3 Rules. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by this “Arbitration Agreement” section. (The AAA Rules are available at https://www.adr.org/Rules or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.) The Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this section.

10.4 Arbitration Process. A party who desires to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a written Demand for Arbitration as specified in the AAA Rules. AAA provides a general form for a Demand for Arbitration and may provide a separate form for a Demand for Arbitration for residents of a particular state, such as California. The arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law with at least 15 years of experience and will be selected by the parties from the AAA’s roster of arbitrators. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within seven (7) days of delivery of the Demand for Arbitration, then the AAA will appoint the arbitrator in accordance with the AAA Rules.

10.5 Arbitration Location and Procedure. If your claim does not exceed $10,000, then the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of the documents that are submitted to the arbitrator, unless you request a hearing or the arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary. If your claim exceeds $10,000, your right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Subject to the AAA Rules, the arbitrator will have the discretion to direct a reasonable exchange of information by the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration.

10.6 Arbitrator’s Decision. The arbitrator will render an award within the time frame specified in the AAA Rules. The arbitrator’s decision will include the essential findings and conclusions upon which the arbitrator based the award. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator’s award of damages must be consistent with the terms of the “Limitation of Liability” section above as to the types and amounts of damages for which a party may be held liable. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the claimant and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the claimant’s individual claim. If you prevail in arbitration you will be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses to the extent provided under applicable law. We will not seek, and hereby waive all rights we may have under applicable law to recover, attorneys’ fees and expenses if we prevail in arbitration.

10.7 Fees. Your and our responsibility to pay any AAA filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees will be solely as set forth in the AAA Rules.

10.8 Changes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Terms, if we change this “Arbitration Agreement” section after the date you accepted these Terms or access our Services, you may reject any such change by sending us written notice (including by email via tabs3.com/Support) within 30 days of the date such change became effective, as indicated in the “Effective Date” listed at the beginning of these Terms or in the date of our email to you notifying you of such change. By rejecting any change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any Dispute between you and us in accordance with the provisions of this “Arbitration Agreement” section as of the date you accepted these Terms, or accessed our Services.

10.9 Survival. This “Arbitration Agreement” section will survive any expiration or termination of these Terms.
