GlobalMeet Terms of Service (archived version)

Effective Dates: April 3, 2023 - May 9, 2024

1. Services and Pricing.
(a) Sale of Services. You may order Services from GlobalMeet  through one or more Service Orders, Subscription License Agreements, other order forms offered by GlobalMeet, and, in narrow circumstances, custom agreements to which GlobalMeet agrees (collectively, the “Agreements”). You (hereafter, “Customer” or “You”) will pay GlobalMeet for all Services provided by GlobalMeet to You pursuant to all Agreements at the Rates, Pricing, Fees and other charges (“Prices”) as stated in those Agreements. The term “Services” is cumulative and includes all GlobalMeet services described in all Agreements between You and GlobalMeet. In the event of a conflict between these Terms of Service, any Agreement and any Pricing schedules, the terms of the Agreement and Pricing schedules for the particular Service shall control. Charges for use of Services shall be invoiced and due as stated on an applicable Agreement, and if not addressed in the Agreement, charges will be invoiced on a monthly basis and are due within thirty (30) days of the invoice date. GlobalMeet reserves the right to withdraw, suspend or discontinue any functionality or feature of the GlobalMeet Services.(b) Taxes and Other Charges. GlobalMeet reserves the right, at any time and in its sole and absolute discretion, to do any one or more of the following, each of which is effective upon written notice: (i) change Prices for Services not yet purchased; (ii) institute new Prices or additional rates, charges and/or fees for access to or use of any new Services, new features or updated features; and (iii) change the required payment terms or billing methods. GlobalMeet may suspend Your access to Services if You have previously failed to timely remit one or more payments due to GlobalMeet or if GlobalMeet determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that Your ability to meet Your obligations as they become due may be compromised. Prices stated in any Agreement or Pricing schedule are exclusive of taxes. You will pay, and GlobalMeet reserves the right to collect in arrears, all sales, use, consumption, goods and services, excise and other taxes of every kind (with the sole exception of taxes based upon GlobalMeet’s net income), fees, surcharges, charges for universal support mechanisms (including without limitation any and all federal and state Universal Service Fund and similar charges) and other charges of any nature whatsoever, now or hereafter imposed or assessed on GlobalMeet, by any foreign, domestic, federal, state/provincial, county or local government authority upon or with respect to the Services provided (“Taxes”). You agree to immediately indemnify GlobalMeet for any Taxes paid by GlobalMeet in connection with the Services provided to you. If You claim exemption from any Taxes, You must provide GlobalMeet with a current, valid exemption certificate from the applicable regulatory authority at the time of entering into an Agreement. A tax exemption does not negate your obligation to indemnify GlobalMeet for Taxes if You failed to provide a valid exemption certificate at the time of entering into an Agreement.(c) Credit Cards. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, for any fees and/or charges You agree to pay by credit or debit cards, You agree if payment is not timely received by GlobalMeet from the card issuer or its agents, You will pay all amounts due within three (3) days of demand by GlobalMeet. Each time You use the Services, or allow or cause the Services to be used, You authorize GlobalMeet to charge Your designated card for those Services. YOU FURTHER AGREE THAT GLOBALMEET MAY SUBMIT CHARGES DUE UNDER ANY AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU AND GLOBALMEET FOR SERVICES WITHOUT FURTHER AUTHORIZATION FROM YOU, AND THOSE CHARGES MAY BE SUBMITTED ON A MONTHLY, QUARTERLY OR ANNUAL BASIS, AS APPLICABLE UNDER THE SUBJECT AGREEMENT. That authorization will continue until You provide prior written notice (in accordance with GlobalMeet’s verification procedures, as may be established by GlobalMeet from time to time in its sole discretion) that You terminate this authorization or desire to change Your designated card. Such notices will not affect charges submitted before GlobalMeet reasonably could act on such notice. When You provide Your card information to GlobalMeet (or its designated licensees or subcontractors), You represent and warrant to GlobalMeet that: (i) You are the authorized user of the designated card; (ii) You agree to promptly notify GlobalMeet of any changes to Your designated card account number, its expiration date or Your billing address, as applicable; (iii) in the event your card is closed or replaced, You will immediately provide to GlobalMeet all billing information for a replacement card; and (iv) You agree to notify GlobalMeet if such designated card expires or is cancelled for any reason. For the avoidance of doubt, the designated card account holder is responsible for all charges incurred, including applicable Taxes, and all Services provided or contracted to be provided by GlobalMeet under an Agreement. WITHOUT LIMITING ANY OTHER REMEDY HEREIN, IF RECURRING FEES ARE NOT PAID IN A TIMELY MANNER, OR IF GLOBALMEET IS UNABLE TO PROCESS YOUR TRANSACTION(S) USING THE DESIGNATED CARD INFORMATION PROVIDED, GLOBALMEET RESERVES THE RIGHT TO SUSPEND AND/OR TERMINATE THE SERVICES.(d) Disputes. Past-due balances not reasonably disputed in good faith as herein provided shall be subject to an interest charge of 2.0% per month computed from the due date of each invoice previously issued, or the maximum rate legally permitted, whichever is less, and You shall pay any collection costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, and other expenses incurred by GlobalMeet to collect any such sums due under this Agreement. You must notify GlobalMeet of any charge disputed in good faith, with supporting documentation, within thirty (30) days from the date of invoice, or You will be deemed to agree to such charges and no adjustments to charges or invoices will be made. You remain responsible to pay charges not reasonably disputed in good faith as herein provided by the due date. GlobalMeet reserves the right to suspend Your access to Services if any amount due is not timely paid.(e) Beta Versions. With respect to any Beta version of any of the Services (the “Beta Services”) made available to You for purposes of evaluation and feedback, You acknowledge that the Beta Services may contain bugs, errors and other problems and are provided to You “as-is.” To the extent permitted by law, GlobalMeet disclaims any warranty or liability obligations to You of any kind with respect to the Beta Services. You further acknowledge the importance of communication between GlobalMeet and You during Your use of the Beta Services and hereby agree to receive related correspondence and updates from GlobalMeet and its suppliers. In the event You request to opt-out from such communications, Your use of the Beta Services may be canceled. You also hereby acknowledge that GlobalMeet has not made any representations, promises or guarantees that the Beta Services will ever be announced, made available to anyone in the future, or continue to be available to You and that GlobalMeet has no express or implied obligation to You to announce or introduce the Beta Services. With respect to any Beta Services, to the extent of any conflict between this paragraph and the remainder of this Agreement or the terms of any other agreement between You and GlobalMeet, this the terms of this paragraph will govern. In addition to and without limiting any other rights or remedies GlobalMeet has, if GlobalMeet determines, in its sole discretion, that You have violated any conditions of and/or limitations on the Beta Services, GlobalMeet reserves the right to terminate your access to the Beta Services immediately and without notice.
