CLARIVOY
MASTER SERVICES TERMS
AND CONDITIONS
As a Customer of
Clarivoy you will be asked to sign a Service Order that describes the Services
you have chosen and the related fees and terms. The Service Order will
incorporate the following terms and conditions (the “Terms”). The Service Order, these Terms, and any supplement terms
that may apply to specific features and products collectively constitute a
contract between Customer (“you” or
“Customer”) and Clarivoy (the “Agreement”). This Agreement takes
effect as of the time you sign the Service Order. In these Terms, each party
may be referred to as a “Party” and
collectively as “Parties.”
1. Services. Clarivoy will provide the services as described in the applicable Service Order
(“Services”) and you agree to pay for the Services and comply with the terms of this Agreement. Each Service Order
is incorporated into these Terms by reference. Any changes to the Services
requested by you will require a separate Service Order.
2. Changes.
(a)
Clarivoy may make commercially reasonable changes
to the Services from time to time. If Clarivoy makes a material change to the
Services, Clarivoy will endeavor to provide at least thirty (30) days’ notice
of the material changes.
(b)
If the change has a material adverse impact on
Customer, Customer will inform Clarivoy and Clarivoy will use reasonable
efforts to provide a fix, and if Clarivoy is unable to do so, either Party may
terminate the Agreement upon written notice without penalty. Customer shall
remain liable for payment of service provided through the termination date.
3.

Interface through a unique user name and password (“Login”) that is individual to each member of Customer’s staff

practices to safeguard its Logins from loss, theft or misuse. Customer, and not

lost or stolen Login credentials.
(b)
In no event may a Login be used by anyone other

its payment information up to date.
4.3.
Payment on file. Customer may be given
the option to use a convenience feature that retains payment information
previously entered during a prior purchase from Clarivoy, which Clarivoy will
use to process Customer’s order, and which Clarivoy will store in connection
with Customer’s account.
4.4.
Subscription. If Customer’s purchase is based on a monthly or other
periodic subscription fee, Clarivoy will automatically charge the subscription
fee plus any applicable taxes and fees each month or other pay period to your
credit card or other payment method that Customer provides to Clarivoy. At the
expiration of each subscription term, Clarivoy will automatically renew your
subscription and charge the credit card or other payment method you have

fees, excluding promotional and discount pricing. Customer can cancel a

invoice at issue. Customer remains obligated to pay all undisputed amounts when
due.
