To use our Services you will need to create an account with Dimagi ("Your Account"). You acknowledge and agree that you are responsible for all activity occurring under Your Account. Should you choose to authorize, delegate or otherwise share control or access of Your Account with other individuals or organizations ("Your Delegates"), you assume full responsibility for the activity of Your Delegates. Your Delegates includes both web and mobile users of the Services. Dimagi is not responsible for, and assumes no liability resulting from, any use of Your Account or the Services, either by you or by Your Delegates.

Your Responsibilities

You are solely responsible and liable for your conduct and Your Data, which must comply with our Acceptable Use Policy. Please do not collect, copy, upload, download or share Your Data with Dimagi unless you have the right and authority to do so; any such unauthorized sharing of Your Data with Dimagi will be considered a violation of these Terms and may result in the termination of Your Account and any subscriptions for Services then in effect. We may review your conduct and Your Data for compliance with these Terms, but we have no obligation to do so.

You may use our Services only as permitted by applicable law, including export control laws and regulations.

Finally, by using our services, you represent to us that you and Your Delegates comply with the requirements of digital consent as per applicable law, as specified in the Privacy Policy. If you and Your Delegates do not meet these requirements, you may not use the Services.

Software

Some of our Services allow you to download client software programs and tools ("Software") which may update automatically. So long as you comply with these Terms, we give you a limited, nonexclusive, nontransferable, revocable license to use the Software solely to access the Services. To the extent any component of the Software may be offered under an open source license, we will make the terms of that license available to you and the provisions of that license may expressly override some of these Terms. You hereby agree not to reverse engineer, decode or decompile the Services, attempt to do so, or assist anyone in doing so.

The Exchange

The Exchange is our digital distribution platform for users to publish and download mobile or other applications created by third parties. Through the use of our Services, you may access and download applications developed by third parties that have been published on the Exchange. Such applications are subject to separate license and end user agreements, the terms of which are separate and distinct from these Terms. You should review any applicable terms or agreements prior to use of any such applications. You acknowledge and agree that Dimagi is not responsible for, and assumes no liability resulting from, your use (or misuse) of any third party applications accessed via the Exchange or which otherwise are not directly provided by Dimagi as part of the Services.

Access and Updates to Services

Dimagi employs industry best practices to ensure that Services are available with a high degree of reliability, absent scheduled and emergency maintenance periods.From time to time, Dimagi may, in its sole discretion, add features or functions or provide bug fixes, patches, updates and upgrades to our Services, including its components, which may be provided automatically and without advance notice. If you do not want to receive such upgrades automatically, you may not use the Services.

We sometimes release products and features that we are still testing and evaluating. Those Services have been marked "beta," "preview," "early access," or "evaluation" (or with words or phrases with similar meanings) (collectively, "Beta Services"), and may not be as reliable as Dimagi's other services, so please keep that in mind. Any Beta Services are not subject to any warranties or service level/uptime/downtime commitments that Dimagi may provide to you from time to time in connection with the Services.

Billing

Subscription Plan: Our Services come in several Subscription plans ("Plans"). The cost and details of your Plans can be found on our Pricing Page.

Subscription Term: You access our Services on a periodic subscription basis, called Subscription Term.

Recurring Billing: By starting your Subscription Term, you authorize us to charge you a periodic plan fee at the then-current rate, and any other charges you may incur in connection with your use of the Services.

Price Changes: We reserve the right to adjust pricing for our Plans or any components thereof in any manner and at any time as we may determine in our sole discretion. Except as otherwise expressly provided for in this agreement, any price changes to your Plans will take effect following an e-mail or in-product notice to you.

For Monthly Billing:

  • Billing Cycle: The periodic plan fee for our Services will be billed each calendar month unless and until you cancel your Plan. We reserve the right to change the timing of our billing, in particular, if your payment has not successfully settled, or to enforce a minimum subscription length.
  • Cancellation: You may cancel your Subscription Plan anytime by pausing your subscription. Upon pausing your subscription, you will lose access to your project space at the end our your current subscription period, including access to your apps and data. You are responsible for paying Dimagi through the end of the period for which Dimagi has provided its product and/or services.

For Annual Billing:

  • Refund, Downgrade and Cancelation policy: If you cancel or downgrade within 90 days, starting from the start date of your Subscription Term, you will be charged on a prorated basis for the service provided, and rest will be fully refunded. After 90 days, the advance payment is non-refundable and the service will continue until the end of the Subscription Term. To be fair to everyone, there will be no exceptions.

Partial Billing: Dimagi may provide billing over partial periods of the Subscription Term at its discretion. At any time, and for any reason, we may provide a refund, discount, or other consideration to some or all of our customers in our sole discretion ("credits").

Taxes and other Payment Levies and Fees: Taxes and foreign currency exchange fees levied by any financial institution in connection with payments for Services are in addition to any subscription fees payable to Dimagi pursuant to a Plan. You agree to pay all taxes and foreign exchange fees associated with your subscription for any Services hereunder or otherwise provide Dimagi with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority.

Termination

You are free to stop using our Services at any time. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to the Services with notice to you if:

(a) you violate these Terms or any other agreement between you and Dimagi (including the Acceptable Use Policy), as determined by Dimagi in its sole discretion,

(b) you use the Services in a manner that could cause risk of harm or loss to us or other Dimagi customers or users.

If you are engaged in any activities described above, we may be able to provide you with advance notice via the email address associated with your account to remedy the activity that prompted us to contact you and give you the opportunity to export Your Data from our Services, but we cannot guarantee that we will provide such advance notice, as we may need to terminate your access to the Services immediately under certain circumstances (including those described below). If we are able to provide you with such advance notice and after delivery of such notice you fail to cease participating in such activities, we may terminate or suspend your access to the Services indefinitely.

For example, we will not provide you with advance notice prior to termination or suspension of your access to the Services where:

(a) you are in material breach of these Terms or any other agreement between you and Dimagi (except as required by any such other agreement),

(b) doing so could result in legal liability or compromise our ability to provide the Services to other users, or

(c) we are prohibited from doing so by law.

Upon termination for any reason, you agree to destroy all copies of the Software in your possession. Upon termination for any reason, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to make Your Data available to you for export for at least a two-week period following such termination. Upon your request, we will delete all data collected through your application from all servers within 30 days of receiving notice.

Discontinuation of Services

We may decide to discontinue the Services in response to unforeseen circumstances beyond Dimagi's control or to comply with a legal requirement. If we do so, we will make commercially reasonable efforts to give you prior notice so that you can export Your Data from our systems. If we discontinue Services in this way before the end of your Subscription Term you have paid us for, we will refund the portion of the fees you have pre-paid but have not received Services for.

Indemnification

You will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Dimagi from and against all liabilities, damages, and costs (including settlement costs and reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of any claim by a third party against Dimagi and its Affiliates regarding: ( a) Your Data; (b) your use of the Services.

Resolving Disputes

For Users and Customers Based in the United States of America: Any dispute arising in connection with these Terms which cannot be amicably settled between us ("Parties") through Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) procedures, if any, shall be arbitrated under the Rules of Commercial Arbitration of the American Arbitration Association by binding arbitration located in The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Any resulting arbitral decision shall be final and binding on both parties. In resolving a dispute hereunder, the parties agree that these Terms will be interpreted in accordance with the substantive laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

For Users and Customers Based Outside of the United States of America: Any dispute arising in connection with these Terms which cannot be amicably settled between us through Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) procedures, if any, shall be arbitrated in accordance with the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules. The arbitration shall take place in New York. Any resulting arbitral decision shall be final and binding on both parties.

Controlling Law

To the fullest extent permitted by law, these Terms will be governed by the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts except for its conflicts of laws principles.

Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, the Business Agreement, the Acceptable Use Policy, and the other documents and materials referenced herein or otherwise published by Dimagi from time to time governing use of the Services, constitute the entire agreement between you and Dimagi with respect to the subject matter of these Terms, and supersede and replace any other prior or contemporaneous agreements, understandings, or terms and conditions applicable to the subject matter of these Terms except as otherwise agreed in writing between you and Dimagi. These Terms create no third party beneficiary rights.

Waiver, Severability & Assignment

Dimagi's failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of its right to do so at a later date or time. If any portion of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions of the Terms will remain in full effect and an enforceable term will be substituted reflecting our intent as closely as possible. You may not assign any of your rights under these Terms, and any such attempt will be void. Dimagi may assign its rights to any of its affiliates or subsidiaries, or to any successor in interest of any business associated with the Services.

Modifications

We may revise these Terms from time to time and the most current version will always be posted on the Dimagi's website. If a revision, in Dimagi's sole discretion, is material, we will notify you (by, for example, sending an email to the email address associated with your account). You are responsible for checking these postings regularly. By continuing to access or use the Services after revisions become effective, you agree to be bound by the revised Agreement. If you do not agree to the revised terms, you may not access or otherwise use the Services.
