PostFaster will have no liability for any change to the Service, including any paid-for functionalities of the Service, or any suspension or termination of your access to or use of the Service. Service fees are not refundable. You should retain copies of any User Content you post to the Service so that you have permanent copies in the event the Service is modified in such a way that you lose access to User Content you posted to the Service.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old to use the Service. By agreeing to these Terms, you represent and warrant to us that: (a) you are at least 18 years old; (b) you have not previously been suspended or removed from the applicable Service; and (c) your registration and your use of the Service is in compliance with any and all laws and regulations. If you are an entity, organization, or company, the individual accepting these Terms on your behalf represents and warrants that they have the authority to bind you to these Terms, and you agree to be bound by these Terms.

3. Accounts and Registration

To access most features of the Service, you must register for an account. When you register for an account, you may be required to provide us with some information about yourself, such as your name, email address, or other contact information. You agree that the information you provide to us is accurate, complete, and not misleading, and that you will keep it accurate and up to date at all times. When you register, you will be asked to create a password. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password, and you accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account. If you believe that your account is no longer secure, then you should immediately notify us at info@postfaster.io.

4. Payment Terms

Some features of the Service may require you to pay fees upon registering for the applicable subscription. Before you pay any fees, you will have an opportunity to review and accept the fees that you will be charged. All fees are in U.S. Dollars and are non-refundable unless otherwise specifically provided for in these Terms. Fees vary based on the plan, with different pricing schemes for individual users and organizations.

4.1 Price

PostFaster reserves the right to determine pricing for the Service. PostFaster will make reasonable efforts to keep pricing information published on our website up to date. We encourage you to check our pricing page periodically for current pricing information, located here: https://postfaster.io/pricing. If you cancel your subscription, you may forego your current price. If you reactivate at a later date, please check https://postfaster.io/pricing for our current pricing. PostFaster may change fees for any feature of the Service. PostFaster, at its sole discretion, may make promotional offers with different features and different pricing to any of PostFaster’s customers. These promotional offers, unless made to you, will not apply to your offer or these Terms. Quotes provided for our Service are subject to change at any time.

4.2 Authorization

You authorize PostFaster to charge all sums for the orders that you make and any level of Service you select as described in these Terms or published by PostFaster, including all applicable taxes, to the payment method specified in your account. If you pay any fees with a credit card, then PostFaster may seek pre-authorization of your credit card account prior to your purchase to verify that the credit card is valid and has the necessary funds or credit available to cover your purchase.

4.3 Subscription Service

The Service may include certain subscription-based plans with automatically recurring payments for periodic charges (“Subscription Service”). The “Subscription Billing Date” is the date when you purchase your first subscription to the Service. The Subscription Service will begin on the Subscription Billing Date and continue for the subscription period that you select on your account (such period, the “Initial Subscription Period”), and will automatically renew for successive periods of the same duration as the Initial Subscription Period (the Initial Subscription Period and each such renewal period, each a “Subscription Period”) unless you cancel the Subscription Service or we terminate it. If you activate a Subscription Service, then you authorize PostFaster and its third-party payment processors to periodically charge, on a going-forward basis and until cancellation of the Subscription Service, all accrued sums on or before the payment due date. For information on the “Subscription Fee,” please see our pricing page at https://postfaster.io/pricing. Your account will be charged automatically on the Subscription Billing Date and thereafter on the renewal date of your Subscription Service for all applicable fees and taxes for the next Subscription Period. You must cancel your Subscription Service before it renews to avoid billing of the next periodic Subscription Fee to your account. PostFaster or its third-party payment processor will bill the periodic Subscription Fee to the payment method associated with your account or that you otherwise provide to us during registration (or to a different payment method if you change your payment information). You may cancel the Subscription Service by accessing your account settings at: https://postfaster.io/billing and clicking on the “Cancel Plan” option or by contacting us at: info@postfaster.io. Your cancellation must be received before the renewal date in order to avoid charge for the next subscription period.

4.4 Delinquent Accounts

PostFaster may suspend or terminate access to the Service, including fee-based portions of the Service, for any account for which any amount is due but unpaid. In addition to the amount due for the Service, a delinquent account will be charged with fees or charges that are incidental to any chargeback or collection of any unpaid amount, including collection fees. If your payment method is no longer valid at the time a renewal Subscription Fee is due, then PostFaster reserves the right to delete your account and any information or User Content (defined below) associated with your account without any liability to you.

8. USER CONTENT

8.1 User Content Generally

Certain features of the Service may permit users to submit, upload, publish, broadcast, or otherwise transmit (“Post”) content to or via the Service, including social media posts and other content comprised of messages, reviews, photos, video or audio (including sound or voice recordings and musical recordings embodied in the video or audio), images, folders, data, text, and any other works of authorship or other works (“User Content”). You retain any copyright and other proprietary rights that you hold in the User Content that you Post to the Service, subject to the licenses granted in these Terms.

8.2 Limited License Grant to PostFaster

By Posting User Content to or via the Service, you grant PostFaster a worldwide, non-exclusive, irrevocable, royalty-free, fully paid right and license (with the right to sublicense through multiple tiers) to host, store, transfer, publicly display, publicly perform (including by means of a digital audio transmission), communicate to the public, reproduce, modify for the purpose of formatting for display, create derivative works as authorized in these Terms, and distribute your User Content, in whole or in part, in any media formats and through any media channels, in each instance whether now known or hereafter developed. All rights granted in these Terms are provided on a through-to-the-audience basis, meaning that the owners or operators of external services will not have any separate liability to you or any other third party for User Content Posted or otherwise used on external services via the Service. You agree to pay all amounts owing to any person or entity resulting from Posting your User Content and from PostFaster’s exercise of the license set forth in this Section.

8.3 Specific Rules for Photographs and Images

If you Post a photograph or image to the Service that includes one or more persons, you hereby grant such persons and their administrators, guardians, heirs, and trustees, if any, an irrevocable, perpetual, royalty-free, fully paid-up, worldwide license to reproduce, distribute, and publicly display that photograph for personal use and through any online platform or service, including, by way of example and not limitation, the Service, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, but not to promote any third-party product, good, or service. The license contained in this Section does not permit the subject of any photo or their administrators, guardians, heirs, or trustees to sell that image or photograph, whether on a standalone basis or as embodied in any product.

8.4 Specific Rules for Musical Works and Recording Artists

If you are a composer or author of a musical work and have granted non-exclusive rights to a Performing Rights Organization (“PRO”), then you must notify your PRO of the royalty-free license you grant through these Terms to PostFaster. You are solely responsible for ensuring your compliance with the relevant PRO’s reporting obligations. If you have assigned your rights to a music publisher or a PRO, then you must obtain the consent of that music publisher or PRO to grant the royalty-free license(s) set forth in these Terms or have that music publisher or PRO enter into these Terms with PostFaster. Just because you authored a musical work (e.g., wrote a song) does not mean you have the right to grant PostFaster the licenses in these Terms. If you are a recording artist under contract with a record label, then you are solely responsible for ensuring that your use of the Service complies with any contractual obligations to your record label, including if you create new recordings through the Service that may be claimed by your label. Finally, if you wish to perform a cover song and Post it to the Service, you are responsible for securing all rights to the underlying musical work before Posting your recording or performance of that musical work to the Service.

8.5 User Content Representations and Warranties

You must not Post User Content if you are not the owner of or are not fully authorized to grant rights in all of the elements of that User Content. PostFaster disclaims any and all liability in connection with User Content. You are solely responsible for your User Content and the consequences of providing User Content via the Service. By providing User Content via the Service, you affirm, represent, and warrant to us that:

You are the creator and owner of the User Content, including the User Mark, or have the necessary licenses, rights, consents, and permissions to authorize PostFaster and users of the Service to use and distribute your User Content as necessary to exercise the licenses granted by you in this Section, in the manner contemplated by PostFaster, the Service, and these Terms.

Your User Content, and the Posting or other use of your User Content, including the User Mark, as contemplated by these Terms, does not and will not: (i) infringe, violate, misappropriate, or otherwise breach any third-party right, including any copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, moral right, privacy right, right of publicity, or any other intellectual property, contract, or proprietary right; (ii) slander, defame, libel, or invade the right of privacy, publicity, or other property rights of any other person; or (iii) cause PostFaster to violate any law or regulation or require us to obtain any further licenses from or pay any royalties, fees, compensation, or other amounts or provide any attribution to any third parties.

Your User Content does not contain (i) language that incites or leads to physical violence or causes emotional harm towards a community that is historically marginalized; (ii) content that clearly aims to undermine or invalidate the experience of a community that is historically marginalized; (iii) content aimed to incite violence, lead to physical or emotional harm, hate, abuse, or the spread of false information; and (iv) false information which we determine is dangerous and can lead to violence, harm, severe illness, and/or death, including:

Astroturfing;

Fake accounts, deceptive behavior, bad actors;

Misleading or potentially harmful content;

Content that advances any misinformation narrative, conspiracy theories, or hoaxes that we determine lead to harm;

COVID-19 misinformation that could contribute to the risk of spreading COVID-19 and vaccine misinformation; and

Content intended to suppress one’s right to vote.

Your User Content could not be deemed by a reasonable person to be objectionable, profane, indecent, pornographic, harassing, threatening, embarrassing, hateful, or otherwise inappropriate.

Your User Content does not and will not contain Hateful Content, a Threat of Physical Harm, or Harassment. The following serves as a guide to help illustrate generally the types of content that fall within the scope of PostFaster’s policy on Hateful Content, Threats of Physical Harm, and Harassment, but is not exhaustive. This Section does not limit any of our other rights or remedies provided herein. For the avoidance of doubt, your User Content may not include, and PostFaster may remove or refuse to publish or promote any User Content that violates the terms or policies of any third-party platform with which PostFaster’s Services integrate or interoperate.

Hateful Content includes:

Any statement, image, photograph, or other content that, in our sole judgment, could be reasonably perceived to harm, threaten, demean, promote the harassment of, promote the intimidation of, or promote the abuse of others for any reason, including by reason of race, gender or gender identity, national origin, sexual orientation, religion, or otherwise.

A Threat of Physical Harm includes:

Any statement, photograph, advertisement, or other content that, in our sole judgment, could be reasonably perceived to threaten, advocate, or incite physical harm to or violence against others, including references to current or historical figures or groups that are known for purporting such content, such as the Ku Klux Klan, Nazi Party, and the like.

Harassment includes:

Revealing someone’s personal information, also known as “doxxing”.

Online stalking and bullying.

Wishes for physical harm directed at a person or persons.

Incitement of others to any of the previous items.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts and remove individual posts that contain Hateful Content, a Threat of Physical Harm, or Harassment.

We also may suspend or terminate your account if we determine, in our sole discretion, that you are either:

An organization that has publicly stated or acknowledged that its goals, objectives, positions, or founding tenets include statements or principles that could be reasonably perceived to advocate, encourage, or sponsor Hateful Content, Harassment, or a Threat of Physical Harm.

A person or organization that has acted in such a way as could be reasonably perceived to support, condone, encourage, or represent Hateful Content, Harassment, or a Threat of Physical Harm.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, we reserve the right to screen, remove, edit, or block any User Content we find in violation of the Terms or that we find, in our sole discretion, to be otherwise objectionable.

8.6 User Content Disclaimer

We are under no obligation to edit or control User Content that you or other users Post and will not be in any way responsible or liable for User Content. PostFaster may, however, at any time and without prior notice, screen, remove, edit, or block any User Content that, in our sole judgment, violates these Terms, is alleged to violate the rights of third parties, or is otherwise objectionable. You understand that, when using the Service, you will be exposed to User Content from various sources and acknowledge that User Content may be inaccurate, offensive, indecent, or objectionable. You agree to waive, and do waive, any legal or equitable right or remedy you have or may have against PostFaster with respect to User Content. If notified by a user or content owner that User Content allegedly does not conform to these Terms, we may investigate the allegation and determine, in our sole discretion, whether to remove the User Content, which we reserve the right to do at any time and without notice. For clarity, PostFaster does not permit infringing activities on the Service.

8.7 Monitoring Content

PostFaster does not control and does not have any obligation to monitor: (a) User Content; (b) any content made available by third parties; or (c) the use of the Service by its users. You acknowledge and agree that PostFaster reserves the right to, and may from time to time, monitor any and all information transmitted or received through the Service for operational and other purposes. If at any time PostFaster chooses to monitor the content, then PostFaster still assumes no responsibility or liability for content or any loss or damage incurred as a result of the use of content. During monitoring, information may be examined, recorded, copied, and used in accordance with our Privacy Policy. PostFaster may block, filter, mute, remove, or disable access to any User Content uploaded to or transmitted through the Service without any liability to the user who Posted such User Content to the Service or to any other users of the Service.

EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN ARBITRATION PROVISIONS AND TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF THE POSTFASTER ENTITIES TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE USE OF OR ANY INABILITY TO USE ANY PORTION OF THE SERVICE OR OTHERWISE UNDER THESE TERMS, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF: (a) THE AMOUNT YOU HAVE PAID TO POSTFASTER FOR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICE IN THE 12 MONTHS PRIOR TO THE EVENT OR CIRCUMSTANCE GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM AND (b) US$100.

EACH PROVISION OF THESE TERMS THAT PROVIDES FOR A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES, OR EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES IS INTENDED TO AND DOES ALLOCATE THE RISKS BETWEEN THE PARTIES UNDER THESE TERMS. THIS ALLOCATION IS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN THE PARTIES. EACH OF THESE PROVISIONS IS SEVERABLE AND INDEPENDENT OF ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THESE TERMS. THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION WILL APPLY EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

14. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

14.1 Generally

In the interest of resolving disputes between you and PostFaster in the most expedient and cost-effective manner, and except as described in the Arbitration provisions, you and PostFaster agree that every dispute arising in connection with these Terms, the Service, and communications from us will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of these Terms, the Service, or any communications to or from us, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of these Terms. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND POSTFASTER ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

14.2 Exceptions

Despite the provisions of 14.1 (Generally) above, nothing in these Terms will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law in aid of arbitration; or (d) file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

14.3 Opt-Out

If you do not wish to resolve disputes by binding arbitration, you may opt out of the provisions of this Section within 30 days after the date that you agree to these Terms by emailing us at legal@postfaster.io or sending a letter to PostFaster, Inc, Attention: Legal Department – Arbitration Opt-Out, [insert address], that specifies: your full legal name, the email address associated with your account on the Service, and a statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration (“Opt-Out Notice”). Once PostFaster receives your Opt-Out Notice, Section 14.1 will be void, and any action arising out of these Terms will be resolved as set forth in Section 15 (Governing Law). The remaining provisions of these Terms will not be affected by your Opt-Out Notice.

14.4 Arbitrator

Any arbitration between you and PostFaster will be settled under the Federal Arbitration Act and administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively, “AAA Rules”) as modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at +1-800-778-7879, or by contacting PostFaster. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement.

14.5 Notice of Arbitration; Process

A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified U.S. Mail or by Federal Express (signature required) or, only if that other party has not provided a current physical address, then by electronic mail (“Notice of Arbitration”). PostFaster’s address for Notice is: PostFaster, Inc., [insert address]. The Notice of Arbitration must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice of Arbitration is received, you or PostFaster may commence an arbitration proceeding. All arbitration proceedings between the parties will be confidential unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or PostFaster must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If the arbitrator awards you an amount higher than the last written settlement amount offered by PostFaster in settlement of the dispute prior to the award, PostFaster will pay you the higher of: (a) the amount awarded by the arbitrator and (b) US$10,000.

14.6 Fees

If you commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms, PostFaster will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee in accordance with AAA rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in the county and state of your billing address or another mutually agreed location, but if the claim is for US$10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse PostFaster for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.

14.7 No Class Actions

YOU AND POSTFASTER AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and PostFaster agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

14.8 Modifications to this Arbitration Provision

If PostFaster makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to PostFaster’s address for Notice of Arbitration, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to PostFaster’s address for Notice of Arbitration, in which case your account with PostFaster will be immediately terminated, and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected, will survive.

14.9 Enforceability

If Section 14.7 (No Class Actions) above or the entirety of this Section 14 is found to be unenforceable, or if PostFaster receives an Opt-Out Notice from you, then the entirety of this Section 14 will be null and void and, in that case, the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 15 (Governing Law) will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms.

15. MISCELLANEOUS

The failure to require performance of any provision will not affect our right to require performance at any other time after that, nor will a waiver by us of any breach or default of these Terms, or any provision of these Terms, be a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or a waiver of the provision itself. Use of Section headers in these Terms is for convenience only and will not have any impact on the interpretation of any provision. Throughout these Terms, the use of the word “including” means “including but not limited to.” If any part of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, then the unenforceable part will be given effect to the greatest extent possible, and the remaining parts will remain in full force and effect.
