If there is a conflict between these Terms and any agreement for Services, contract, or other agreement between a Customer and Company, the Terms herein shall control.   No provision of any purchase order or other business form or instrument employed by you will supersede or supplement the terms and conditions of these Terms, and any such document relating to these Terms will be for administrative purposes only and will have no legal effect.  Customer agrees to comply with these Terms and stipulates that these Terms control Customer’s relationship with Company. 

Under these Terms, “Company” (collectively “we”, “our” or “us”), means LocknCharge Technologies, LLC; PC Locs Pty Ltd; Lock and Charge Europe Limited; Lock and Charge Japan GK; IWS Global Pty Ltd; and any other affiliates unless set forth otherwise in additional terms applicable for given Product or Service.  Company and Customer may be referred to herein collectively as the “Parties” or individually as a “Party.”

Customers are responsible for all uses of the Service(s). 

2.4 Provision of Access 

Company hereby grants Customer a non-exclusive, non-transferable right to access and use the Services during the Period of Service (“Period”), for use by Authorized Users in accordance with the Terms contained herein. 

Customer agrees to only access (or attempt to access) the Service by the means described in the documentation provided for that Service. If Company assigns credentials to a Customer or an End User developer, these credentials must be used with the applicable Service. Customers agree not to misrepresent or mask Customer’s or End User’s identity when using the Service. 

In addition to the Services offered by Company, Company may also make available materials, information, services or access to services provided by third parties (collectively, the “Third Party Content”).  The Third-Party Content may be governed by separate terms or license agreements that accompany such services.  Company offers no guarantees and assumes no responsibility or liability of any type with respect to any Third-Party Content, including any liability resulting from incompatibility between the Third-Party Content and the Services.  You agree that you will not hold Company responsible or liable with respect to the Third-Party Content or seek to do so. 

2.5 Documentation License 

Company hereby grants to Customer a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use any documentation provided by Company during the Period solely for Customer’s internal business purposes in connection with its use of the Services.  Services are made available on a limited access basis, and no ownership right is conveyed to you, irrespective of the use of terms such as “purchase“ or ”sale”. We and our licensors have and retain all right, title and interest, including all intellectual property rights, in and to our technology. 

2.6 Limitations 

We may, at our discretion, set and enforce limits on Customer and End User use of the Services.  Customer agrees to, and will not attempt to circumvent, such limitations as documented with the Service, including that Customer shall not knowingly: (a) rent, lease, lend, sublicense, distribute, publish, transfer, or otherwise make commercially available Customer’s access to the Services to any third party; (b) reverse engineer, disassemble, decompile, decode, otherwise attempt to derive or gain access to any software component of the Services not otherwise made available by Company, in whole or in part; or (c) remove any proprietary notices of Company from the Services.  If a Customer or End User would like to use any Service beyond these limits, such Customer must obtain express consent from Company, which will be granted at Company’s discretion, and which may involve additional Terms and/or fees. 

Unless otherwise specified in writing by Company, or unless necessary for use of the Service, we do not intend for Company or the Service to collect or process Personal Data.  Customer agrees not to provide the Personal Data of Customer, End Users, or others to the Company or to the Service unless necessary for use of the Service.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Customer agrees not to provide the Personal Data of any minors (of any person under the age of 18 years) to the Company or to the Service under any circumstances. 

Unless otherwise specified in writing by Company, we do not intend use of the Service to create obligations under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”), and we make no representations that the Service satisfies HIPAA.  If a Customer is or becomes a Covered Entity or Business Associate as defined in HIPAA, such Customer will not use the Services for any purpose or in any manner for Protected Health Information. 

2.7 Open Source Software 

Some of the software required by or included in Company’s Service(s) may be offered under an open source license. Open source software licenses constitute separate written agreements. For certain Services, open source software is listed in the documentation. To any extent the open source software license conflicts with these Terms, the conflicting term(s) of the open source license instead sets forth Customer’s agreement with Company in relation to the open source software. 

2.8 Improving Cloud Products 

Company is always striving to improve the Cloud Products.  In order to do so, we use analytics techniques to better understand how Cloud Products are being used. For more information on how we manage the data collected, please refer to our Privacy Statement at https://www.lockncharge.com/privacy-policy/ and https://www.pclocs.com.au/privacy-policy/.  You understand and acknowledge that your use of our Services is not contingent on any future or possible future functionality or features, or dependent on any oral or written public comments we make regarding future or possible future functionality or features.  You understand that any pre-release and beta Cloud Products, and any pre-release and beta features within generally available Cloud Products, that we make available (collectively, “Beta Versions”) are still under development, may be inoperable or incomplete and are likely to contain more errors and bugs than generally available Cloud Products. We make no promises that any Beta Versions will ever be made generally available. 

2.9 Using Data to Provide Cloud Products  

Company agrees and recognizes that a Customer retains all right, title, and interest in and to Data submitted in the form required to access Cloud Products. Subject to these Terms, and solely to the extent necessary to provide Cloud Products, Customer grants Company a worldwide license to access, use, process, copy, distribute, perform, export, and display the submitted Data.  Solely to the extent that reformatting any Data for display in the Cloud Product constitutes a modification or derivative work, the foregoing license also includes the right to make modifications and derivative works.  Company may also access Customer accounts, End User accounts, and Customer Cloud Products with End User permission in order to respond to Customer or End User support needs.  Customer agrees to obtain and maintain any required consents necessary to permit the processing of Data in connection with the Cloud Products.  To the extent any Data includes Personal Data, Customer authorizes Company to Process Data solely for the following purposes: (a) to provide Services as further described in the Privacy Statement (https://www.lockncharge.com/privacy-policy/; https://www.pclocs.com.au/privacy-policy/); (b) to enable actions by authorized End Users with respect to the Services; or (c) as further documented by a mutually agreed upon written instruction given by Customer and accepted by Company.  The Parties agree to comply with the applicable Data Protection Legislation for “onward transfer” or “sale” of Personal Data, as defined in the applicable legislation.

Company may send Customer or End User certain communications in connection with use of the Services. 

2.11 Feedback 

A Customer or End User may choose to submit suggestions or other feedback to Company.  No feedback submitted to Company will be considered the confidential or proprietary information of the submitter, and company, and those who Company permits (including third-party service providers), may freely use, copy, disclose, license, distribute and exploit any feedback in any manner and without any obligation, royalty or restriction based on intellectual property rights or otherwise.

4.3 Third Party Links and Content 

Any links to other websites not owned or operated by Company are provided solely as a convenience for you.   Company’s provision of any Third Party Content does not create a partnership or affiliation with the third party, and does not constitute sponsorship or endorsement of any such third parties or service providers.  You shall make a competent consumer decision before employing the services of any listed third party professional or service provider.  You bear all risk associated with the employing of any third party and obtaining their goods or services. 

SECTION 5: TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE 

All sales of Services (including hardware and other products) offered and supplied by the Company to a Customer shall be pursuant to these Terms of Service and Conditions.  Any conflicting terms in your purchase order or elsewhere are without effect unless signed by the applicable party(ies). 

5.1 Acceptance 

Customer’s acceptance of these Terms and Conditions shall be indicated by any of the following, whichever occurs first: (a) Customer’s accessing and/or using any Service;  (b) Customer’s submission of an order to the Company, regardless of whether the Service(s) (including hardware and other products) ordered is ever delivered or if the purchase order is completely or partially fulfilled, rejected, modified or cancelled; (c) Customer’s receipt of any part of the items specified for delivery in any purchase order submitted to the Company; (d) Customer’s application for credit submitted to the Company; (e) any other act or expression of acceptance by Customer. 

Customer’s acceptance is expressly limited to the Terms and Conditions in their entirety without addition, modification or exception and any term, condition, or proposal hereafter submitted by Customer (whether oral or written), which is inconsistent with or in addition to the Terms and Conditions set forth hereon is objected to and hereby rejected by the Company.  Customer’s silence or failure to respond to any such subsequent term, condition or proposal shall be deemed to be Customer’s acceptance or approval thereof. 

5.2 Orders 

Company reserves the right to schedule and reschedule any order, with notice to Customer, at Company’s reasonable discretion, and to decline any order for any reason, or no reason, in Company’s sole discretion. 

5.3 Delivery 

Delivery shall be made in accordance with the Company’s shipping policy in effect on the date of shipment.  Product title and risk of loss will transfer to Customer upon the Company tendering the product for delivery to the carrier (F.O.B. origin).  If Customer requests special shipping or handling, including expedited shipment, third party billing, or freight collect, Customer shall be responsible for filing any claims with carrier and for all freight and handling costs.  Customer shall pay for any special routing, packing, handling or insurance requested by Customer and agreed to by the Company.  The Company will not be subject to the requirements of any non-compliance programs of Customer, including charges for product delays or missing/inaccurate shipping documents, labeling or product markings. 

Customer shall promptly notify the Company, no later than ten (10) days from invoice date, of any claimed shortages or rejection as to any delivery, with exception of deliveries that reveal external shipping damage, which in some instances must be refused immediately upon delivery by carrier.  Such notice shall be in writing and shall be reasonably detailed stating grounds for such rejection.  Failure to provide such notice within such time shall be deemed an acceptance in full of any such delivery.  Company shall not be liable for any shipment delays that affect the Customer, including but not limited to delays caused by unavailability or shortages of Service(s) (including hardware and other products), natural disasters, acts of war or terrorism, acts or omissions of Customer, fire, strike, riot, or government interference, unavailability or shortage of materials, labor, fuel or power through commercial channels at customary and reasonable rates, failure or destruction of plant and equipment arising from any cause whatsoever, or transportation failures. 

5.4 Prices 

Prices payable by Customer for Company’s Service(s) (including hardware and other products) are specified on the invoice therefor.  The Company does not offer price protection.  Customer shall bear all applicable federal, provincial, municipal and other government taxes (such as sales tax, GST, VAT, use and similar taxes), as well as import or customs duties, license fees and similar charges, however designated, levied on the sale.  Company’s prices do not include (unless specifically applicable in certain jurisdictions) such taxes, fees and charges.  Exemption certificates must be presented prior to shipment if they are to be honored.  To the extent any sale is made without prior receipt of a valid exemption certificate, the Company expressly reserves the right to include on the invoice for such sale, or to separately invoice Customer for all applicable taxes, fees and charges, and Customer agrees that these amounts shall be immediately due and payable. 

5.5 Payment Terms 

Customer shall provide all financial information reasonably requested by the Company from time to time for the purpose of establishing or continuing Customer’s credit limit.  Customer agrees that the Company shall have the right to decline or extend credit to Customer and to require that the applicable purchase price be paid prior to shipment.  The Company shall have the right from time to time, without notice, to change or revoke Customer’s credit limit on the basis of changes in the Company’s credit policies or Customer’s financial condition and/or payment record. 

Customer shall not deduct any amounts from any Company invoice without the Company’s express written approval, which shall be contingent upon Customer providing all supporting documentation for such deduction as required by the Company. 

If Customer fails to make timely payment of any amount invoiced by the Company, the Company shall have the right, in addition to any other rights and remedies available to the Company at law or in equity, to immediately revoke any or all credit extended, to delay or cancel future deliveries and/or reduce or cancel any or all quantity discounts extended to Customer.  Customer shall pay all costs of collection including reasonable attorney’s fees.  A service charge of the lessor or one-half (1.5%) percent per month or the maximum amount allowed by law will be charged on all past due balances commencing on the date payment is due.

In using Company Branding, Customer must follow Company Branding Use Guidelines, as provided to the Customer upon request.  Customer understands and agrees that Company has the sole discretion to determine whether Customer attribution(s) and use of Company Branding is in accordance with the above requirements and guidelines, and Customer will cease attribution and use of Company Branding immediately if Company requests that Customer cease use for any reason.

SOME JURISDICTIONS PROVIDE FOR CERTAIN WARRANTIES, LIKE THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.  EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED FOR IN THE TERMS, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, COMPANY EXCLUDES ALL WARRANTIES, GUARANTEES, CONDITIONS, REPRESENTATIONS, AND UNDERTAKINGS. 

8.2 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY 

WHEN PERMITTED BY LAW, COMPANY AND ITS SUPPLIERS AND DISTRIBUTORS WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUES, GOODS OR DATA, FINANCIAL LOSSES, OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES.

The Parties each agree to contract in the English language. If Company provides a translation of the Terms, Company does so for Customer convenience only and the English Terms will solely govern the Parties’ relationship. The Terms do not create any third-party beneficiary rights or any agency, partnership, or joint venture. Nothing in the Terms will limit either party’s ability to seek injunctive relief.  Company is not liable for failure or delay in performance to the extent caused by circumstances beyond Company’s reasonable control. If Customer does not comply with the Terms, and Company does not take action right away, this does not mean that Company gives up or forfeits any rights that Company may have (such as taking action in the future). If a particular provision in these Terms is not enforceable, this will not affect the enforceability of any other terms. The Terms are the entire agreement between Customer and Company relating to its subject and supersede any prior or contemporaneous agreements on that subject.
