Please note that if you are an individual and you access or use our Service on behalf of a company or other entity, such as your employer (together with its affiliates, an “Organization” or “Customer”)), then: (i) the Agreement is a contract between us and you and us and that Organization; (ii) you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that Organization to the Agreement (and if you do not have that authority, you may not access or use our Service); (iii) your acceptance of the Agreement will bind such Organization to the terms of this Agreement; (iv) your individual right to access and use our Service may be suspended or terminated (and ownership and administration of your Service Account may be transferred) if you cease to be associated with, or cease to use an email address associated with or provisioned by, that Organization; (v) we may disclose information regarding you and your use of our Service with such Organization; and (vi) the terms “you” and “your”, as used in these Terms, refer to both you and such Organization.

To use our Service, you must be at least thirteen (13) years of age. You represent and warrant that you meet the applicable age requirements and are competent to agree to the Agreement. If you are a minor (which is under the age of eighteen (18) in most states), you may use our Service only with the involvement of a parent or legal guardian and their consent and acknowledgement to the Agreement. If you are under 18, you represent and warrant that you have your parent or guardian’s permission to use our Service and that your parent or guardian is consenting to the Agreement.

Our Service is not available to any Users we previously removed from our Service.
1.2 The Service and Service Accounts - Your account on our Service (your “Service Account”) gives you access to our Service that we may establish and maintain from time to time. We may maintain different types of Service Accounts for different types of users. You acknowledge that you do not own your Service Account. A subscription allows you to access the Services. A subscription may be procured through the Services interface, or in some cases, via an order form entered into between you and Scout (each an “Order Form”).
You may not use another User’s Service Account without such User’s permission. You are solely responsible for the activity that occurs on your Service Account, and you must keep your Service Account password(s) strong and secure. You should notify us immediately of any breach of security or unauthorized use of your Service Account. Any individual with administrator-level access to your Service Account can modify your Service Account settings, access and billing information. We will not be liable for any losses caused by any unauthorized use of your Service Account, or for any changes to your Service Account, including your ability to access your Service Account or Your Content (defined below), made by any individual with administrator-level access to your Service Account.
You may control certain aspects of your Service Account profile and how you interact with our Service by changing the settings in your settings page and by emailing our support team at info@ScoutOS.com. By providing us with your email address, you consent to our using the email address to send you Service-related notices, including any notices required by law, in lieu of communication by postal mail. We may also use your email address to send you other marketing or advertising messages, such as changes to features of our Service and special offers. If you do not want to receive such email messages, you may opt out or change your preferences by contacting our Service support team at info@ScoutOS.com or by clicking the unsubscribe link within each marketing or advertising message. Opting out will not prevent you from receiving Service-related notices.
1.3 Scout OS Service - Our Services, including our Scout OS service, are dependent upon understanding User inputs (including but not limited to typed text inputs) and providing an output that can assist Users. These inputs may be performed, and an output provided, through third-party integrations that utilize the Service. To provide the Service, Scout reads and stores your conversations and inputs in real time, enabling our Services to provide prompt answers to your questions and to ensure that we can verify that the Service is working as intended. By using the Service, you acknowledge and agree that Scout may store communications and inputs initiated on, through or involving our Service, solely for the purpose of providing the Services to you and your Users, including preventing or addressing service or technical problems therein. Scout will not use any of your inputs to train models or for any other purpose related to the development of Scout.
1.4 Your Interaction with Other Users. YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR INTERACTIONS AND SHARING OF INFORMATION WITH OTHER USERS. WE RESERVE THE RIGHT, BUT HAVE NO OBLIGATION, TO MONITOR DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND OTHER USERS. WE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL LIABILITY ARISING FROM YOUR INTERACTIONS WITH OTHER USERS, OR FOR ANY USER’S ACTION OR INACTION, INCLUDING RELATING TO USE OF YOUR CONTENT.
1.5 Beta Products. Occasionally, we look for beta testers to help us test our new features. These features will be identified as “beta” or “pre-release,” or words or phrases with similar meanings (each, a “Beta Product”). Beta Products are made available on an “as is,” and “as available” basis and, to the extent permitted under applicable law, without any warranties or contractual commitments we make for other Services.

6. Payments, Billing and Subscription Plans.
6.1 How We Bill for Our Service. For Customers that purchase a subscription to use our Services, fees are specified through your online account or otherwise communicated to you by Scout — and must be paid in advance. For more information about the different tiers and pricing for a subscription, please visit our page at [LINK]. Payment obligations are non-cancelable once incurred subject to your cancellation rights in the Agreement. Except as expressly stated in the Agreement, fees paid are non-refundable. For clarity, in the event you downgrade any subscriptions or other recurring fees, you will remain responsible for any unpaid fees under the paid plan, and Services under the paid plan will be deemed fully performed and delivered upon expiration of the initial Subscription Period. Fees are stated exclusive of any taxes, levies, duties, or similar governmental assessments of any nature, including, for example, value-added, sales, use or withholding taxes, assessable by any jurisdiction (collectively, “Taxes”). You will be responsible for paying all Taxes associated with its purchases, except for those taxes based on our net income.
6.2 Billing Policies. If you elect to purchase a subscription to use our Services, or any other paid aspects of the Services, you agree to the pricing communicated to you by us. We may add new services for additional fees and charges, or add or amend fees and charges for existing services, at any time in our sole discretion, by giving to Customer at least thirty (30) calendar days' written notice, such increase to take effect at the beginning of the next billing cycle. If you are unhappy with the increase, you may give notice to terminate the Agreement, by giving at least thirty (30) calendar days' written notice to us prior to the next billing date, such notice to expire no later than the end of the then-current billing cycle. The fees will not increase during the notice period; otherwise, any change to such pricing shall become effective in the billing cycle following notice of such change as provided under the Agreement.
6.3 Billing and Cancellation. To use the Services, you must provide one or more current, valid accepted payment card, as may be updated from time to time and which may include payment through your account with a third party (such method, a “Payment Method”). By providing a Payment Method, you agree that we or our Payment Processor (defined below) are authorized to periodically charge the applicable fees in addition to any applicable taxes and service fees on a recurring basis until you cancel your subscription or other such recurring fees. The fees for the Services and any other charges you may incur in connection with your use of the Services, such as taxes and possible transaction fees, will be charged to your Payment Method on the specific payment date indicated on your account. The length of your billing cycle will depend on the type of subscription that you choose when you signed up for the Services. Fees are fully earned upon payment. In some cases, your payment date may change, for example, if your Payment Method has not successfully settled, when you change your subscription plan or if your paid subscription began on a date not contained in a given month. We may authorize your Payment Method in anticipation of service-related charges through various methods, including authorizing it up to one month of service as soon as you register.
If you elect to cancel your subscription before the end of the Subscription Period, you will still be able to access the Service until the end of the Subscription Period. No refunds will be provided for an early cancellation of your subscription.
6.4 Payment Information. We use a third-party payment processor (“Payment Processor”), currently Stripe, Inc., to process payments you make in connection with the Services. We or our Payment Processor will attempt to verify the Payment Method you provide, and may do so by processing an authorization hold, which is standard practice. Please see Payment Processor’s privacy statement available on its website for information on how Payment Processor collects and uses personal information. Payment must be received by Payment Processor before our acceptance of an order, and must use one of the payment methods accepted by the Payment Processor. We do not view or store your full credit card or other Payment Method information. For all payments, Payment Processor will collect your Payment Method details and charge your chosen Payment Method in connection with an order. You acknowledge and agree that we are not responsible for any breaches of credit card or other Payment Method security or privacy.
You represent and warrant that: (i) the account, order, and Payment Method information you supply to us or Payment Processor, as applicable, is true, correct, and complete; (ii) you are duly authorized to use such Payment Method; (iii) you will pay any charges that you incur in connection with the Services, including any applicable taxes; (iv) charges incurred by you will be honored by your Payment Method company; (v) you will pay all charges incurred by you at the posted prices, including all applicable taxes, if any; (vi) you will not allow anyone else to use your subscription; (vii) you will not transfer your subscription or password to anyone else; and (viii) you will report to us any unauthorized or prohibited access or use of your subscription or password.
If any of your account, order, or Payment Method information changes, you agree to promptly update this information, so that we or Payment Processor may complete your transactions and contact you as needed. We are not liable for any unauthorized use of your credit card, debit card, or other Payment Method by a third-party in connection with your use of the Services or your subscription.

YOU CAN PROVIDE CANCELLATION NOTICE THROUGH OUR WEBSITE. YOU MUST CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION BEFORE IT RENEWS IN ORDER TO AVOID BEING CHARGED FOR THE NEXT CYCLE’S FEES.

If you cancel your subscription, we will retain your information in accordance with our Privacy Notice.
6.6 Refunds. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THE AGREEMENT, UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW, WE DO NOT PROVIDE REFUNDS FOR ANY SUBSCRIPTION OR LOCATIONS; NOR DO WE PROVIDE CREDIT, REFUNDS, OR PRORATED BILLING FOR SUBSCRIPTIONS THAT ARE CANCELED.

12. Confidential Information.
12.1 Confidential Information. From time to time, Scout and your Organization, may disclose or make available to each other, non-public, proprietary, or confidential information(“Confidential Information”). Scout Confidential Information includes any information, including information from other Users shared via the Services, that reasonably should be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information and the circumstances of disclosure, including non-public business, product, technology and marketing information. Your Organization’s Confidential Information includes certain portions of Your Content that you share with Scout pursuant to the Services and which is marked as confidential. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information does not include any information that: (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result breach of this confidentiality section; (ii) is or becomes available to Scout or your Organization on a non-confidential basis from a third-party source, provided that such third party is not and was not prohibited from disclosing such Confidential Information; (iii) was in the your possession prior to the disclosure thereof; or (iv) was or is independently developed by without using any Confidential Information belonging to the other party.
12.2 Protection and Use of Confidential Information. You and Scout shall: (i) protect and safeguard the confidentiality of Confidential Information with at least the same degree of care as you or Scout, in each case, would protect its own Confidential Information, but in no event with less than a commercially-reasonable degree of care; (ii) only use Confidential Information, and only permit it to be accessed or used, for the purpose of exercising the rights or performing the obligations under the Agreement, for the purpose of exploring a business relationship (or changes to the business relationship) between the parties; and (iii) not disclose any Confidential Information to any person or entity, except to service providers or financial/legal advisors who need to know the Confidential Information and are bound to confidentiality obligations at least as restrictive as those in the Agreement.
12.3 Compelled Access or Disclosure. If you or Scout are required by applicable law or legal process to disclose any Confidential Information of the other party, you or Scout, in each case, shall, prior to making such disclosure, use commercially reasonable efforts to notify the other party of such requirements to afford the opportunity to seek, at such party’s sole cost and expense, a protective order or other remedy.
12.4 Injunctive Relief. Each of the parties to the Agreement acknowledges that the other party will be irreparably harmed if Confidential Information of the other is distributed in breach of this Section, and that such other party would not have an adequate remedy at law in the event of such an actual or threatened breach. Therefore, each of the parties agrees that the other party shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief against any actual or threatened breaches of this Section by the other party without the necessity of showing actual damages or showing that monetary damages would not afford an adequate remedy.
13. Governing Law, Arbitration, and Class Action/Jury Trial Waiver.
13.1 Governing Law. You agree that: (i) we will be deemed solely based in the State of South Carolina; and (ii) our Service will be deemed a passive one that does not give rise to personal jurisdiction over us, either specific or general, in jurisdictions other than South Carolina. The Agreement will be governed by the internal substantive laws of South Carolina, without respect to its conflict of laws principles. The parties acknowledge that the Agreement evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce. Notwithstanding the preceding sentences with respect to the substantive law, the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16) (“FAA”) governs the interpretation and enforcement of the Arbitration Agreement in Section 13.2 and preempts all state laws to the fullest extent permitted by law. If the FAA is determined to not apply to any issue that arises from or relates to the Arbitration Agreement, then that issue shall be resolved under and governed by the law of your state of residence. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. You agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in Charleston, South Carolina 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 copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property or proprietary rights, as set forth in the Arbitration Agreement below, including any provisional relief required to prevent irreparable harm. You agree that Charleston, South Carolina is the proper and exclusive forum for any appeals of an arbitration award or for trial court proceedings in the event that the arbitration provision below is found to be unenforceable.
13.2 Arbitration. READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES THE PARTIES TO ARBITRATE THEIR DISPUTES AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US. This section 13.2 (the “Arbitration Agreement”) applies to and governs any dispute, controversy, or claim between you and us that arises out of or relates to, directly or indirectly: (i) the Agreement, including the formation, existence, breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, validity, or enforceability thereof; (ii) access to or use of our Service, including receipt of any advertising, marketing, or other communications from us; (iii) any transactions through, by, or using our Service; or (iv) any other aspect of your relationship or transactions with us, directly or indirectly, as a user or consumer (“Claim” or collectively, “Claims”). The Arbitration Agreement shall apply, without limitation, to all Claims that arose or were asserted before or after your consent to the Agreement.
If you are a new User, you can reject and opt-out of this Arbitration Agreement within thirty (30) days of accepting the Agreement by emailing us at info@ScoutOS.com with your first and last name and stating your intent to opt-out of the Arbitration Agreement. Opting out of this Arbitration Agreement does not affect the binding nature of any other part of the Agreement, including the provisions regarding controlling law or in which courts any disputes must be brought.
For any Claim, you agree to first contact us at info@ScoutOS.com and attempt to resolve the dispute with us informally. In the unlikely event that we have not been able to resolve a Claim after sixty (60) days, we each agree to resolve any Claim through binding arbitration by JAMS, under the Optional Expedited Arbitration Procedures then in effect for JAMS (the “Rules”), except as provided herein. JAMS may be contacted at www.jamsadr.com, where the Rules are available. In the event of any conflict between the Rules and this Arbitration Agreement, the Arbitration Agreement shall control. The arbitration will be conducted in the U.S. county where you live or San New York, New York, unless you and we agree otherwise. If you are using our Service for commercial purposes, each party will be responsible for paying any JAMS filing, administrative and arbitrator fees in accordance with JAMS rules, and the award rendered by the arbitrator will include costs of arbitration, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses. If you are an individual using our Service for non-commercial purposes: (i) JAMS may require you to pay a fee for the initiation of your case, unless you apply for and successfully obtain a fee waiver from JAMS; (ii) the award rendered by the arbitrator may include your costs of arbitration, your reasonable attorney’s fees, and your reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses; and (iii) you may sue in a small claims court of competent jurisdiction without first engaging in arbitration, but this does not absolve you of your commitment to engage in the informal dispute resolution process. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. You and we agree that the arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any disputes relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Arbitration Agreement, including any claim that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitrator shall also be responsible for determining all threshold arbitrability issues, including issues relating to whether the Agreement, or any provision of the Agreement, is unconscionable or illusory or any defense to arbitration, including waiver, delay, laches, unconscionability, or estoppel.
NOTHING IN THIS SECTION WILL BE DEEMED AS: PREVENTING US FROM SEEKING INJUNCTIVE OR OTHER EQUITABLE RELIEF FROM THE COURTS AS NECESSARY TO PREVENT THE ACTUAL OR THREATENED INFRINGEMENT, MISAPPROPRIATION, OR VIOLATION OF OUR DATA SECURITY, INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OR OTHER PROPRIETARY RIGHTS; OR PREVENTING YOU FROM ASSERTING CLAIMS IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT, IF YOUR CLAIMS QUALIFY AND SO LONG AS THE MATTER REMAINS IN SUCH COURT AND ADVANCES ON ONLY AN INDIVIDUAL (NON-CLASS, NON-COLLECTIVE, AND NON-REPRESENTATIVE) BASIS.
If this Arbitration Agreement is found to be void, unenforceable, or unlawful, in whole or in part, the void, unenforceable, or unlawful provision, in whole or in part, shall be severed. Severance of the void, unenforceable, or unlawful provision, in whole or in part, shall have no impact on the remaining provisions of the Arbitration Agreement, which shall remain in force, or the parties’ ability to compel arbitration of any remaining claims on an individual basis pursuant to the Arbitration Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Class Action/Jury Trial Waiver is found to be void, unenforceable, or unlawful, in whole or in part, because it would prevent you from seeking public injunctive relief, then any dispute regarding the entitlement to such relief (and only that relief) must be severed from arbitration and may be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction. All other claims for relief subject to arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement shall be arbitrated under its terms, and the parties agree that litigation of any dispute regarding the entitlement to public injunctive relief shall be stayed pending the outcome of any individual claims in arbitration.
13.3 Class Action/Jury Trial Waiver. WITH RESPECT TO ALL PERSONS AND ENTITIES, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THEY HAVE OBTAINED OR USED OUR SERVICE FOR PERSONAL, COMMERCIAL OR OTHER PURPOSES, ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THIS WAIVER APPLIES TO CLASS ARBITRATION, AND, UNLESS WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF ONLY TO AN INDIVIDUAL CLAIMANT AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF ON INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S). ANY RELIEF AWARDED MAY NOT AFFECT OTHER USERS. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THE AGREEMENT, YOU AND WE ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND.
