FAVRO and/or its affiliates and licensors owns the Favro service, which is a website and a mobile app available from the website www.favro.com, as well as all related documentation, software and any available updates, new versions and upgrades, if any (hereinafter referred to as the “Service”), or has the rights to license the use of the Service, and is willing to grant to you a limited license to access and use such Service on the following terms.

By clicking a box indicating your acceptance of this Agreement, completing the registration process or merely using the Service, you agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.

This Agreement is applicable to “Owners”, who manage and run a team connected to an account, such team is hereinafter called an “organization”; and “Members” who are invited to join an existing organization that has already been created in the Service by an Owner. The term “you” encompasses all users, including Owners and Members. If you, who have agreed to be bound by the terms of this Agreement, invite other persons to use the Service, you shall be fully responsible, to the extent permitted by law, for the other people’s use of the Service and shall advise them of the terms and conditions in this Agreement and that they by using the Service are agreeing to be bound by this Agreement. Further, by accepting this Agreement you acknowledge and agree that the terms of this Agreement will apply not only to the current organization you are signing up for, but also to every new organization(s) you’re being part of. If you are entering into this Agreement on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind such entity and its affiliates to these terms and conditions, in which case the terms “you” and “your” shall refer to such entity. If you do not have such authority, or if you do not agree with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, you must not accept this Agreement and may not use the Service. If you are entering into this Agreement as an individual, you represent and warrant that you are over the age of 18, or the legal age of majority in your jurisdiction of residence.

When you register a new account you will identify an Owner’s user name and password for your account. After you have created an account, you may create one or several organization(s), run by one or more Owner(s), and your account will be automatically added to that organization. You may then invite additional users to become Members under your organization. When you invite others to participate, you will determine their role and level of access. The total number of users is limited to the maximum number permitted for your organization (if any such limitations apply). You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of the access data for your account and you are responsible for all activities that occur under your account and/or organization, regardless of whether the activities are undertaken by you, your employees or a third party (including your contractors or agents) and, except to the extent caused by our breach of this Agreement, FAVRO is not responsible for unauthorized access to your account and/or organization.

You agree to keep all information on or relating to your account and/or organization complete, accurate and up to date (including without limitation any payment and contact information).

FAVRO reserves the right to update and change the Agreement from time to time. Notice of any material change will be posted on FAVRO’s website. If any change in the Agreement is not acceptable to you, your only remedy is to stop using the Service. If you use the Service after the revised Agreement has become effective, this will constitute an acceptance of the revised Agreement.

You acknowledge that we may at any time make changes to the Service or any feature or functionality thereof, and unless explicitly stated otherwise, any new features of the Service, including the release of new tools and resources, shall be subject to this Agreement.

2. DATA PROCESSING In this Agreement the terms “personal data”, “processing”, “controller” and “processor” shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the EU Directive 95/46/EC on the protection of personal data. Both parties are responsible for acting in compliance with their respective obligations as a controller or a processor under the data protection legislation applicable to them. FAVRO will process such data, which is submitted by you when using the Services, and for which you are the controller, in accordance with your instructions. Any additional costs, which arise as a result of such instructions, shall be borne by you. FAVRO will process such data, which is collected by FAVRO and for which FAVRO is the controller, for the purposes of maintaining, improving, developing and providing the Services, and to improve the security related to the Service.

BILLING AND PAYMENT If you are a new customer, you may use the Service for free during the fixed free trial period, the length of which will be specified on www.favro.com as updated from time to time. After the free trial period has elapsed you will have to either stop using the Service or start paying for your organization under a payment plan. By upgrading to a payment plan, you agree to pay in advance the amount due for each subscription period based on your usage. Our current pricing and available subscription period is found on our official website, as well as specific details on what features are included in the different levels of payment plans. Your payment plan will remain in effect until it’s cancelled or terminated under this Agreement. If you don’t pay for your payment plan on time, we will have the right, in our own discretion, to terminate your account and this Agreement with immediate effect. Further, we may offer certain users to participate in a payment plan free of charge, provided the Services will be used by the users solely for educational and other non-commercial purposes, as defined on www.favro.com as updated from time to time (an “Educational License”). If you accept such an offer, and upon FAVRO’s request, you agree to participate in testing of the Services as organized by FAVRO. Further, you agree to provide FAVRO with comments, suggestions, information and other forms of feedback regarding the Services, and you hereby grant FAVRO an unlimited license to use such feedback. The applicable terms for such Educational License will be specified by FAVRO from time to time, but we reserve the right, in our absolute discretion, to determine your eligibility for an Educational License, and to withdraw or to modify an Educational License at any time without prior notice and without any liability. Only a taxable person may upgrade an organization to a payment plan. By “a taxable person” is meant any person or body who independently carries out in any place any business activity. By signing up for a payment plan, you represent that you are a taxable person, and you agree to indemnify FAVRO AB for any additional taxes or fees, which may be imposed on FAVRO AB as a result of your using the Service. We offer different payment plans, as specified on www.favro.comfrom time to time. You may at any time upgrade from one payment plan to another. In such case you will immediately be charged the full amount of the then-current rate for the new payment plan (and any auto-renewals thereof), as provided on www.favro.com. You may at any time downgrade your plan level prior to the end of your subscription period. Please note however that you will not receive any refunds or credits for payments already due under your current billing cycle. If you need to increase your amount of users, you may do so by inviting new Member(s) to your organization. If the number of users increases, or, as applicable, exceeds the upper threshold of your current user batch, then FAVRO will make a one-time, prorated charge to your credit card to cover your new user(s) or, as applicable, batch of users in your organization for the remainder of the current billing period, or send you an invoice of this amount. You may at any time decrease the number of users by excluding user(s) from your organization. If the number of users decreases or, as applicable, goes below the lower threshold of your current user batch, and if you are paying against credit card, FAVRO will stop charging you for those user(s) or, as applicable, that unused user batch as from the date when the change was made, and will add a pro-rated credit to the payment plan connected to your organization for the time you have already paid for this unused user or user batch. You will keep this credit until it has been fully used for purchase relating to your existing organization (e.g. renewal of the subscription or an upgrade) or until you change your payment plan. If you decrease the number of users, and you are paying against invoice, you will not receive any refunds or credits for payments already due under your current billing cycle. Upon selection of a payment plan you will provide FAVRO with the necessary payment information, such as your credit card number and billing address. If you are paying by credit card, you hereby authorize FAVRO (or a billing agent acting on our behalf) to charge your credit card for all fees payable during the subscription term. We will automatically charge you at the end of each subscription period for the next subscription period. If you have earned a credit on the payment plan connected to your organization this will be used the next time we bill you, provided you remain on the same payment plan as when the credit was earned, and we will not start charging your credit card until your credit balance has run out. You may apply to make payments against invoice instead of credit card, and we might grant you this right in our full discretion. If you pay against invoice, and unless otherwise agreed, we will invoice you at the beginning of the first subscription term and at the beginning of each subsequent billing period. Each billing period will elapse on the last date of one calendar month, which means that if you sign up for the Service in the middle of a month, the first billing period will be the number of month(s) normally covered by the billing period plus as many days as were remaining of the first calendar month, from the date you signed up. All fees for the Service are the net amount and exclusive of any taxes. You agree to pay (to us or the appropriate taxing authority) any and all taxes, duties and tariffs, including, without limitation, sales, excise, value added, use, withholding, import/export fees and similar charges related to this Agreement (other than taxes based on FAVRO’s income). You agree to indemnify and hold harmless FAVRO for any costs or damages resulting from your breach of your obligations under this section regarding applicable taxes and duties. We may revise our Service rates at any time, or impose additional fees or charges. If you are on a payment plan, we will do this by providing you with at least 30 days’ notice prior to the next charge. Unpaid fees are subject to a late fee charge of 1.5% per month on any outstanding balance, or the maximum permitted by law, whichever is lower, plus all expenses of collection. All fees are stated in, and shall be paid in, the currency applicable for your country, as set out on www.favro.com.
