If you do not agree to any of these terms or any future Terms of Service, do not use or access (or continue to access) the Service. If you are using embedded code you must delete it from your software, website or application. This Agreement applies to all visitors, users, members, customers (Customer, Customers) and others who access the Service (“Users”).

 

PLEASE READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY TO ENSURE THAT YOU UNDERSTAND EACH PROVISION. THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS A MANDATORY ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES PROVISION THAT REQUIRES THE USE OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO RESOLVE DISPUTES, RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR CLASS ACTIONS, AND ALSO LIMITS THE REMEDIES AVAILABLE TO YOU IN THE EVENT OF A DISPUTE.

 

1. Use of Our Service

 

Ometrics provides a service that measures and gathers user data to improve usability and conversion rate optimization on web sites and or other software applications. Ometrics gathers user information by gathering metrics on the users behavior and or prompting for feedback.

The Service is not available to any Users previously removed from the Service by Ometrics.

 

B. Member Accounts
You will need to register with Ometrics and create an account. Your account gives you access to the services and functionality that we may establish, add new services and maintain from time to time and in our sole discretion.

 

You may never use another User’s account without permission. When creating your account, you must provide accurate and complete information.

We may also use your email address to send you other messages, such as changes to features of the Service and special offers. If you do not want to receive such email messages, you may opt out or change your preferences. Opting out may prevent you from receiving email messages regarding offers and marketing information but will not prevent services related emails such as site updates, billing and other service related information.

You must immediately notify Ometrics of any unauthorized uses of the Service, your account or any other breaches of security. Ometrics will not be liable for any acts or omissions by you, including any damages of any kind incurred as a result of such acts or omissions.

Except as explicitly authorized in writing by this Agreement or otherwise, each party will: (a) not use, for its own benefit or the benefit of any third party, the other party’s Confidential Information; and (b) use all reasonable care, but in no event less care than it takes to protect its own Confidential Information of similar importance, to protect the other party’s Confidential Information from unauthorized use, disclosure and publication. Both parties acknowledge that the breach of this Section 11 could cause great or irreparable injury to the disclosing party and that pecuniary compensation would not afford adequate relief, and therefore, that upon any such unauthorized disclosure by the receiving party, the disclosing party shall be entitled to seek appropriate equitable relief in addition to whatever other remedies it might have at law.Within five (5) days after termination of this Agreement, each receiving party shall destroy or deliver to the disclosing party, at the disclosing party’s option, all materials in receiving party’s possession or control that contain or disclose any Confidential Information of the disclosing party.

A. Independent Contractors
Neither party has the ability to bind the other party to any agreements or other obligations and will not attempt to do so. Ometrics and you are independent contractors, and nothing in this Agreement creates any partnership, joint venture or agency relationship. As between each other, each party is fully responsible for all persons and entities it employs or retains.

C. Governing Law
You agree that: (i) the Service shall be deemed solely based in Colorado; and (ii) the Service shall be deemed a passive one that does not give rise to personal jurisdiction over Ometrics, either specific or general, in jurisdictions other than Colorado. This Agreement shall be governed by the internal substantive laws of the State of Colorado, without respect to its conflict of laws principles. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded.You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of a state court located in Jefferson County, Colorado or the United States District Court Denver Colorado, for any actions for which we retain the right 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 our Intellectual Property Rights, as set forth in the Arbitration provision below.

 

D. Arbitration

The award rendered by the arbitrator shall include costs of arbitration, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses, and any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this Section shall be deemed as preventing Ometrics from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts as necessary to protect any of Ometrics Intellectual Property Rights or other proprietary interests. ALL ACTIONS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. YOU AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND OMETRICS ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

G. No Waiver
