- The Service allows you to submit, upload, store, share and transmit a variety of digital content and materials, which may include contacts, invoices and other content, text (including email and chat messages), images, video and audio (all such content and materials, “Your Content”). You shall be solely responsible for Your Content and the consequences of creating, generating, modifying, submitting, uploading, storing or transmitting Your Content. In connection with Your Content, you affirm, represent and warrant that: (i) you own, or have the necessary licenses, rights, consents, and permissions to use and authorize Indy to use, all patent, trademark, copyright or other proprietary rights in and to any and all of Your Content to enable use of Your Content in the manner contemplated by Indy and this Agreement, and (ii) you have the written consent, release, and/or permission of each and every identifiable individual person in Your Content and/or relevant legal grounds as may apply to use the name or likeness of each and every such identifiable individual person, to enable inclusion thereof in Your Content, and to use Your Content in the manner contemplated by and this Agreement.
- You are solely responsible for obtaining any and all licenses from third parties and paying any royalties or fees necessary in connection with the use of Your Content in connection with the Service, and agree to indemnify and hold Indy and its affiliates, and each of their officers, directors, employees and agents harmless from and against any claim, action, suit, proceeding, damages, liability, loss, cost or expense (including reasonable attorney’s fees) arising out of or incurred in connection with any actual or alleged failure to obtain any such licenses or pay any such royalties or fees.
- As between you and Indy, you are the owner of Your Content. You hereby grant Indy a worldwide, non-exclusive, fully paid-up, royalty-free, sublicensable, and transferable license to use, reproduce, distribute, prepare derivative works of, display, perform, and otherwise exploit Your Content in connection with the provision, operation, support, marketing and promotion of the Service, including without limitation for redistributing part or all of the Service (and derivative works thereof) in any media formats and through any media channels. The foregoing license shall terminate with respect to any item of Your Content that you permanently delete on the Service, other than to the extent the Service would retain archival or backup copies in the ordinary course of Indy’s business and other than to the extent Your Content has been shared with other Service users.
- Indy cannot guarantee the security of Your Content. Indy expressly disclaims any representation or warranty, whether expressed or implied, with respect to ensuring, guaranteeing or otherwise offering any definitive promise of security in connection with Your Content.

- In connection with Your Content and any other transmission of messages or material facilitated by the Service, you further agree that you will not: (i) submit or transmit material that is not authorized by the copyright owner, protected by trade secret or otherwise subject to third party proprietary rights, including privacy and publicity rights, unless you are the owner of such rights or have permission from their rightful owner to post and sell the material and to grant Indy all of the license rights granted herein; (ii) publish or transmit falsehoods or misrepresentations that could damage Indy or any third party; (iii) submit or transmit material that is unlawful, defamatory, libelous, threatening, harassing, hateful, racially or ethnically offensive or encourages conduct that would be considered a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability, violate any law or is otherwise inappropriate; or (iv) replicate products or services offered by Indy for the purpose of republishing, reselling or brokering any Indy content or creating a separate business management services substantially similar to the Service.

- Blocked Messages. Messages may be blocked, delayed or prevented from being delivered by destination email servers and other reasons outside of our control. In addition, messages may be blocked, delayed or prevented from being received due to your configuration of the Messaging Services and other reasons outside of our control. You agree that we shall have no liability in connection with any such blocking, delay or prevention of delivery or receipt, and that your payment obligations hereunder continue regardless of whether delivery or receipt of messages is prevented, delayed or blocked.
- Compliance. You are solely responsible for ensuring any emails you send and receive using the Messaging Services comply with the Federal CAN-SPAM Act and any other laws, rules and regulations applicable to email. Neither Indy nor the Messaging Services are the “sender” as defined in the Federal CAN-SPAM Act.
- Storing and Scanning. When you send, attempt to send or receive a message, we (or our third-party providers) may store and scan your message and Your Content included in the message. This helps us protect you and the Service by preventing and blocking “spam” emails and messages, viruses and spyware, and other harmful or unwanted items from being sent and received over the Messaging Services. You hereby consent to all such storing and scanning.
- Suspension and Termination. Without limitation of any other provision of this Agreement, we may suspend or terminate your access to and use of the Messaging Services in the event we determine (in our sole discretion) that you may be using the Messaging Services for distribution of unsolicited and unauthorized commercial messages, in connection with any fraudulent or illegal activities or activities in violation of this Agreement, for purposes of harassing, intimidating or threatening others, in connection with the infringement or misappropriation of any third party rights, or in connection with any prohibited uses set forth in Section 4.2.
- Chat Application. Indy does not control the content transmitted by other users of the chat application and does not have any obligation to monitor such content for any purpose. Without limitation of any other provision of this Agreement, you acknowledge that you are solely responsible for all of Your Content that you transmit through the chat application. If at any time, Indy chooses, in its sole discretion, to monitor Your Content or the content of any other users transmitted in connection with the chat application, Indy nonetheless assumes no responsibility for the content, no obligation to modify or remove any inappropriate content, and no responsibility for the conduct of you or another user transmitting any such content. In the course of using the chat application, you may encounter content that you may find to be offensive, indecent or objectionable. You agree that you use the chat application at your sole risk and we shall not have any liability to you for content that may be found to be offensive, indecent or objectionable.

- Removal. The availability and ability to use a given Third Party Application is subject to change from time to time, with or without notice.
- Responsibility. The Third Party Applications are made available as a convenience to you and are provided on a fully AS-IS basis. Your access and use of Third Party Applications are governed solely by the terms and conditions of such Third Party Applications, and you agree to comply with such terms and conditions. You acknowledge and agree that Indy is not the developer of, makes no warranties regarding, and shall have no obligation or liability of any kind with respect to, the Thirty Party Applications (including without limitation with respect to the use, inability to use, performance or non-performance thereof). You hereby assume all risks and liability of using the Third Party Applications. You may be required to register for or log into such Third Party Applications. By enabling any Third Party Applications, you are expressly permitting us to disclose your login information, as well as your data as necessary to facilitate the use or enablement of such Third Party Applications.
- Third Party Applications for Transaction Processing. The Service provides several accepted payment methods for transaction processing services for your business. These payment methods may require the use of the Third Party Applications. You may be required to register for or log into such Third Party Applications on their respective websites and to provide your and/or your customer’s payment information necessary to facilitate and complete a transaction between your customer or Indy and you. By enabling any Third Party Applications, you are expressly permitting us to disclose information regarding you and your business to the operators of such Third Party Applications as necessary to facilitate your use of transaction processing services. You agree to provide all information requested by Indy and/or the applicable Third Party Application operator in connection with enabling payment processing, verifying your identity, satisfying IRS reporting obligations and complying with any other legal or compliance requirements, including but not limited to your bank account and routing numbers and Tax ID or Social Security Number. You shall promptly notify Indy and/or the applicable Third Party Application operator of any change or update to any information previously provided to Indy and/or the applicable Third Party Application operator (as applicable). Your bank and payment account information is stored only with the Third Party Applications you use for transaction processing. Indy does not store your payment information on its systems, unless you include your payment information in Your Content, and shall not have any responsibility for the safety or security of that information. The following are some of the Third Party Applications the Service is integrated with for Transaction Processing:
- Stripe Connect. Indy uses Stripe Connect service operated by Stripe, Inc (“Stripe”). By using the Stripe payment processing services, you acknowledge that you agree to the Stripe Connected Account Agreement available at https://stripe.com/us/connect-account/legal and you agree to the collection, use and disclosure practices by Stripe set forth in Stripe Privacy Policy, available at https://stripe.com/us/privacy.
- Paypal. Indy uses services provided by Paypal. By using Paypal for payment processing services, you hereby expressly consent that Indy may transmit, use, store and transmit to PayPal Your Content as is reasonably necessary in order to provide you with use of PayPal’s services in conjunction with the Service. You may withdraw such consent at any time by disabling use of PayPal services through the Service user interface. If you accept PayPal payments in connection with invoices generated or sent through the Service for amounts due to you from your customers, you agree to publish and abide by a refund policy with respect to such payments that complies with all applicable laws, rules and regulations.
- Fees.
- General. Payment processing for the Service between you and Indy is provided by Stripe or other third-party payment processors we may utilize from time to time (“Payment Processor”). Indy does not collect or store your credit card information. You can find out more about our privacy practices in our Privacy Policy. By providing a credit card or other payment method accepted by Indy and using the Service, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to use the designated payment method. If the payment method you provide cannot be verified, is invalid or is otherwise not acceptable, your account may be suspended or cancelled. You must resolve any problem we or our Payment Processor encounter in order to proceed with your use of your account.
- Payments. By signing up for any paid Service account or any paid add-on features and providing your payment information, you agree to pay us (and authorize our Payment Processor to charge you) the recurring and/or nonrecurring fees as displayed to you at the time you create your account and as may be modified from time to time as described in this Agreement, as well as any other fees you expressly choose to incur in connection with your use of the Service. Unless otherwise specified upon enrollment, for subscription products or services, your payment method will be authorized for up to a month for the applicable Service account type and on a monthly basis thereafter until you cancel the subscription. You acknowledge and agree that the payment method provided by you will be automatically charged the fees you incur in connection with your use of the Service, and represent and warrant that you have all necessary rights relating to such payment instrument to authorize us to make such charges. Your use of the Service may be suspended if we are unable to charge such payment instrument for any reason or if your account is otherwise past due. The fees applicable to your account may be subject to modification from time to time pursuant to notice (which may be given via email) provided by us at least thirty (30) days in advance of the payment date for which the modification would be effective. You may at any time cancel your account as set forth below if you do not agree to any modified fees. All fees must be paid in U.S. dollars (or such other currency(ies) which may be accepted by us from time to time, as indicated at the time of payment) and are non-refundable.
- Cancellation. YOU MAY CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION AT ANY TIME BY CONTACTING US AT support@weareindy.com OR BY DOWNGRADING YOUR ACCOUNT IN THE SETTINGS SECTION ON THE WEBSITE. IF YOU CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION, YOU MAY STILL USE YOUR SUBSCRIPTION UNTIL THE END OF YOUR THEN-CURRENT SUBSCRIPTION MONTH. TO NOT BE CHARGED FOR YOUR SUBSCRIPTION FOR THE FOLLOWING SUBSCRIPTION MONTH, YOU MUST CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION PRIOR TO THE FIRST DAY OF THAT SUBSCRIPTION MONTH, OR YOU WILL OTHERWISE BE CHARGED FOR THAT SUBSCRIPTION MONTH.
For purposes of clarity, a “Subscription Month” consists of each successive one-month period beginning with the day and month your subscription to the Service begins. By way of example, if the start date of your subscription to the Service is February 16, 2020, then your first Subscription Month begins on February 16, 2020 and ends on March 16, 2020, and your second Subscription Month begins on March 16, 2020 and ends on April 16, 2020. - Taxes. All fees payable by you are exclusive of applicable taxes and duties. If you are legally entitled to an exemption from any sales, use or similar transaction tax, you are responsible for providing us with legally-sufficient tax exemption certificates for each taxing jurisdiction. We will apply the tax exemption certificates to charges under your account occurring after the date we receive the tax exemption certificates. If any deduction or withholding is required by law, you will notify us and will pay us any additional amounts necessary to ensure that the net amount that we receive, after any deduction and withholding, equals the amount we would have received if no deduction or withholding had been required. Additionally, you will provide us with documentation showing that the withheld and deducted amounts have been paid to the relevant taxing authority.
- Lifetime Subscriptions.
- We may offer a “Lifetime Subscription” that provides access to and use of all the features and updates made available to purchasers of the Indy Pro subscription (as described on the Site) for as long as such features and updates are made available by us and subject to any and all usage limitations that we impose on Indy Pro subscriptions. Except as set forth above, we make no guarantees, warranties or representations as to the term or duration of the Lifetime Subscription. If you elect to purchase a Lifetime Subscription, you acknowledge and agree that we may, at any time, change, remove, or cease offering any or all of the features and updates made available to purchasers of the Indy Pro subscription and that any such change, removal, or cessation of features and updates that we make to the Indy Pro subscription will apply to your Lifetime Subscription.
- Our Lifetime Subscription is paid by a one-time upfront payment. The Lifetime Subscription may not be assigned to any other person or entity.
- You expressly acknowledge and agree that in purchasing a Lifetime Subscription, you assume the risks associated with and will not be entitled to any refund or credit, in whole or in part, in the event of any change, removal, or cessation of any or all the features made available to purchasers of the Indy Pro subscription or the Lifetime Subscription, as set forth above.
- Modification. Indy may make modifications, deletions and/or additions to this Agreement (“Changes”) at any time by providing notice through the Service user interface or to the email address associated with your account or otherwise.

- Notice.
- We may provide any notice to you under this Agreement by sending a message to the email address then associated with your account.

- You may terminate this Agreement at any time, for any reason or for no reason, by deleting your Service account by contacting us at support@weareindy.com or by using any account deletion functionality we may provide through the Service user interface. Note that deleting the App from your device will not terminate your Indy account. You agree that Indy, in its sole discretion and for any or no reason, may terminate this Agreement, your account or your use of the Service, at any time and without notice. The Company may also in its sole discretion and at any time discontinue providing the Service, or any part thereof, with or without notice. You agree that the Company shall not be liable to you or any third-party for any such termination.
- Except as otherwise stated in the Privacy Policy, upon your termination, Indy will keep certain materials from Your Content for ninety (90) days, after which all data related to your Indy Account, including Your Content, or any part thereof, will be deleted, preventing you from accessing or using any of the Service. Prior to the deletion, you will have an opportunity to export certain materials from Your Content.

INDY AND ITS AFFILIATED COMPANIES, AND ITS AND THEIR SUPPLIERS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, LICENSORS AND PARTNERS, DO NOT WARRANT OR MAKE ANY REPRESENTATIONS REGARDING THE USE OR THE RESULTS OF THE USE OF THE SERVICE IN TERMS OF THEIR CORRECTNESS, ACCURACY, RELIABILITY OR OTHERWISE. YOU (AND NOT INDY OR ITS AFFILIATED COMPANIES NOR ITS OR THEIR SUPPLIERS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, LICENSORS OR PARTNERS) ASSUME THE ENTIRE COST OF ANY NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOU DOWNLOAD, OR OTHERWISE OBTAIN MEDIA, MATERIAL OR OTHER DATA THROUGH THE USE OF THE SERVICE AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION AND RISK AND THAT YOU WILL BE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR COMPUTER SYSTEM OR LOSS OF DATA THAT RESULTS FROM SUCH MATERIAL OR DATA.
CERTAIN STATE LAWS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES. IF THESE LAWS APPLY TO YOU, SOME OR ALL OF THE ABOVE DISCLAIMERS, EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU, AND YOU MIGHT HAVE ADDITIONAL RIGHTS. - Indemnification; Hold Harmless. You agree to indemnify and hold Indy and its affiliated companies, and its and their officers, directors, employees, agents, suppliers, service providers, licensors and partners, harmless from any claims, losses, damages, liabilities, including attorneys’ fees, arising out of your use or misuse of the Service, violation of the rights of any other person or entity, or any breach of this Agreement.

APPLICABLE LAW MAY NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY OR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IN SUCH CASES, INDY’S LIABILITY WILL BE LIMITED AND EXCLUDED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. - Arbitration.
- Agreement to Arbitrate. This Section 18 is referred to herein as the “Arbitration Agreement.” The parties hereby agree that any and all controversies, claims or disputes between you and Indy arising out of, relating to, or resulting from this Agreement, the Privacy Policy, the Guidelines and other related or similar agreements shall be subject to binding arbitration pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Arbitration Agreement, and not any court action (other than a small claims court action to the extent the claim qualifies). The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement. The arbitrator will decide the substance of all claims in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflicts of laws rules, and will honor all claims of privilege recognized by law. All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, and any ruling, decision or award by the arbitrator, will be strictly confidential.
- Class Action Waiver. YOU AND INDY AGREE THAT EACH PARTY MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH PARTIES AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S OR PARTY'S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING. ALSO, THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY'S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S).
- Procedures. Arbitration will be conducted by a neutral arbitrator in accordance with the American Arbitration Association’s (“AAA”) rules and procedures (the “AAA Rules”), as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. If there is any inconsistency between the AAA Rules and this Arbitration Agreement, the terms of this Arbitration Agreement will control unless the arbitrator determines that the application of the inconsistent Arbitration Agreement terms would not result in a fundamentally fair arbitration. The arbitrator must also follow the provisions of this Agreement as a court would, including without limitation, the limitation of liability and damages provisions in Section 17. You may visit http://www.adr.org for information on the AAA and http://www.adr.org/fileacase for information on how to file a claim.
- Venue; Costs. The arbitration shall be held in the county in which you reside or at another mutually agreed location. If the value of the relief sought is $10,000 or less, you or Indy may elect to have the arbitration conducted by telephone or based solely on written submissions, which election shall be binding on each party, but subject to the arbitrator's discretion to require an in-person hearing if the circumstances warrant. Attendance at any in-person hearing may be made by telephone by either or both parties unless the arbitrator requires otherwise. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees (collectively, the "Arbitration Fees") will be governed by the AAA Rules.
