Welcome to Edify. These terms of use (“Agreement”) are a binding legal agreement between you and EdifyOS, Inc. regarding your use of the Edify’s online tools, including the Edify service for Slack and other asynchronous messaging tools (the “Service”). Please read this Agreement carefully. By accessing or using the Service, you represent that you have the right to bind your organization (“Subscriber”), and you accept this Agreement and agree to use the Service in compliance with this Agreement and other policies or documents referenced herein. The terms “Subscriber,” “you,” “your,” “yours,” and “authorized user” refer to your organization, the account administrator, any or any individual user that is authorized by Subscriber, as applicable. The terms “Edify,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to EdifyOS, Inc. and our affiliates, as applicable. We may periodically make changes to this Agreement, and you may view the most current version at https://www.getedify.co/terms-conditions. These Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy at https://www.getedify.co/privacy-policy constitute important agreements between us and should be read by you in their entirety.
1. Ordering & Account Registration The specifics of each Subscriber order will be set forth on an order form or similar document (“Order Form”). You must register for and maintain an account with us to use the Service. You can do this via the site or through your account with certain third-party communication tools such as Slack, Google (each, a “Third Party Account”). If you choose the Third-Party Account option, we’ll create your Account by extracting from your Third-Party Account certain personal information such as your name and email address and other personal information that your privacy settings on the Third-Party Account permit us to access. Only authorized users may use your account to access the Service. You are responsible for all activities that occur through your account.
2. License Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Edify grants to Subscriber a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable right during the term of this Agreement for the use of the Service by the Subscriber and Subscriber’s personnel solely in connection with Subscriber’s internal business operations.
3. Fees and Payment For Subscribers that purchase our Service, fees are specified at the Service “billing” interface or in the applicable Order Form(s), and must be paid in advance. By providing us with your credit card information, you agree: (a) that you have the right to provide that information to us; (b) that we are authorized to charge that card for all fees due to us hereunder, and that no additional notice or consent is required; (c) that if your Service subscription is billed based on the number of active Edify users (as determined by Edify), we are authorized to charge your credit card for those amounts (including, as applicable, periodic true-up charges); and (d) that you will keep your credit card information up-to-date. Payment obligations are non-cancelable and, except as expressly stated in this Agreement, fees paid are non-refundable. For clarity, in the event you downgrade any subscription from a paid plan to a free plan, you will remain responsible for any unpaid fees under the paid plan, and Service under the paid plan will be deemed fully performed and delivered upon expiration of the initial paid plan subscription term. If we agree to invoice you by email, full payment must be received within thirty (30) days from the invoice date. 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 your purchases, except for those taxes based on our net income. You agree to make all payments in U.S. Dollars, unless the Order Form indicates otherwise.
4. Term and Termination The term of this Agreement commences upon your registration for a Service subscription and remains in effect for the term of your subscription as set forth in the applicable Order Form. Subscriptions are month-to-month unless otherwise agreed. The term of your subscription, including the obligation to pay the applicable Service subscription fees, will automatically renew for additional successive terms of the same duration unless terminated as specified in this Section. You may terminate this Agreement at any time upon written notice to Edify. For the purposes of providing notice of non-renewal as described in this Section, notice via email to Edify at eddy@getedify.co will be deemed sufficient. Upon termination, your access to the Service and any information stored by the Service will also terminate. Edify may terminate this Agreement at any time upon 30 days’ prior written notice, and in the case of any such termination, will refund to you a pro-rata portion of any unused, prepaid fees.
