Kissmetrics Terms of Use

1. Account Registration and Access

To register for the Services and create an account, you (including any agent designated by you operating on your behalf) must complete the registration process by providing Kissmetrics with the requested information including your name, email address, telephone, company name, company website, and password. You agree to provide us with complete and accurate information when you register for the Services, and to keep such information up to date.

You shall protect your username and password and are solely responsible for activities that occur under or through your account, including activities initiated by third parties, whether or not such activities are authorized by you. If you allow a third party to access the Services on your behalf, you shall ensure that such third party is bound by, and abides by, the terms of this Agreement. You agree to notify Kissmetrics immediately of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security relating to your account or your use of the Services.

Kissmetrics may access your account, or information associated with your account, to provide support or maintenance, for security-related reasons, or any other business purpose. You acknowledge and consent to such access.

2. Fees

2.1 SUBSCRIPTION TERMS

Kissmetrics offers a range of subscription plans to its Services (each, a “Plan”). Each Plan includes a numerical range of user interactions or engagement views (“Events”) and custom messages (“Messages”) that may be recorded by our Services on your registered web page, along with custom email communications sent (“Emails”) in any given month of the subscription period.

You will select your Plan as part of your registration for the Services, which may begin with a Free Trial (as defined in Section 2.3 (“Free Trial”) herein). Each subscription period for a Plan will be based on the subscription period chosen/sold (e.g. annually, bi-annually, quarterly, monthly). You may choose to be billed for the Plan annually or in less than annual increments (e.g. monthly or bi-annually), but regardless of your billing cycle, you are responsible for subscription fees for the entire subscription period chosen/sold.

At the end of your current subscription period, your Plan will automatically renew for a subscription period equal to your prior subscription period unless you provide Kissmetrics with email notice (sent to billing@kissmetrics.io) of your intent not to renew your Plan at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the current subscription period.

To view the specific details of your Plan, including pricing information and the end date of your subscription period, login to your account on Kissmetrics and click the “Account” page or contact us at billing@kissmetrics.io.

2.2 BILLING POLICIES, REFUNDS, OVERAGES, AND UPGRADE AND DOWNGRADE TERMS

• The fees for your Plan are billed in advance of each billing cycle.
• In the event you cancel your Plan, no refunds or credits will be provided for partial or unused months of the Services.
• If you exceed your Plan’s Event, Tracked User and/or Email limits in any given month, you will be either (a) charged overages for the month based on your current plan’s monthly cost or (b) automatically upgraded to the next level Plan for the remainder of your subscription period. We will always choose the less expensive option for you.
• If you upgrade your Plan level, you will immediately be charged for the increased price of the upgraded Plan, pro-rated to reflect the remaining duration of your subscription period, and you will be charged the full amount of the then-current rate for the new Plan, beginning with your next billing cycle.
• If you desire to downgrade your Plan level prior to the end of your subscription period, please provide written notice to billing@kissmetrics.io. The Plan downgrade will take effect the first billing cycle that occurs more than thirty (30) days following your notice to Kissmetrics, and you will not receive any refunds for payments made on your current billing cycle. Downgrading your Plan may cause the loss of account content, features, or capacity. Kissmetrics disclaims liability for any such loss.
• Any discounts applied to a previous subscription may not apply to a renewed subscription, including to any automatic renewals.
• Any questions involving upgrades or downgrades to your Plan can be directed to billing@kissmetrics.io.

2.3 FREE TRIAL

Subscriptions to the Services may begin with a free trial period during which you can try out the Services for 7 days from the date you register (“Free Trial Period”). There is no limit to the number of Events recorded on a registered website during the Free Trial Period. Messages and/or Emails may be restricted or limited during the Free Trial Period.

While you may not be required to enter your billing information in order to sign up for the Free Trial Period, you may provide such information at any point during the Free Trial Period. If you do so, you will not be charged until the Free Trial Period ends. If you have not provided billing information by the time the Free Trial Period ends, you will lose all access to the Services. There will be a sixty (60) day grace period during which we will continue to record Events on your website. You will have the option of entering billing information and subscribing during this grace period. If you do not do so, your account will be cancelled at the end of the grace period.

You may cancel your Plan at any time during the Free Trial Period by following the steps described in section 2.7 (“Account Cancellation”). Upon cancelling your account, you will immediately lose all access to the Services and any data or information stored within your account (see Section 11 (“Term and Termination”) for additional details).

Kissmetrics reserves the right to modify, cancel and/or limit the Free Trial Period without notice at any time.

2.4 CHANGES IN FEES

We may change the fees for the Services at any time or impose additional fees or charges.

Such changes will be effective as of the first billing cycle that occurs more than thirty (30) days after notice of our new fees, as provided for in Section 12 herein, provided that if you upgrade or downgrade to a new Plan, whether at your election or pursuant to Section 2.2(c), you will be charged at the then-current rate for such Plan.

2.5 PAYMENT OF FEES

As an express condition of your use of and access to the Services, you agree to pay all fees applicable to your Plan, any other fees for additional services you may purchase, and any applicable taxes in connection with your use of the Services.

We will bill the fees due under your Plan to the credit card you provide to us during registration (or to a different credit card if you change your payment information). You acknowledge that the amount billed for each renewal period may vary due to promotional offers, changes in your Plan, and changes in applicable taxes, and you authorize us to bill you the corresponding amounts.

We reserve the right to deactivate your access to the Services for failure to pay applicable fees as described in this Agreement. Unless otherwise stated, all fees are stated in U.S. Dollars.

2.6 CREDIT CARD PAYMENTS

All fees for your Plan will be billed to your credit card. You authorize the card issuer to pay any amounts described herein and associated with your Plan and authorize us (or a billing agent acting on our behalf) to continue charging all such amounts to your credit card account until you or we, cancel or terminate your Plan as provided herein or these amounts are paid in full, whichever is later.

You must provide current, complete and accurate billing and credit card information. You must promptly update all billing information (such as billing address, card number and expiration date) to keep your account current, complete and accurate, and you must promptly contact Kissmetrics if your credit card is lost or stolen, or if you become aware of a potential breach of account security (such as an unauthorized disclosure or use of your Kissmetrics username or password).

You authorize us to obtain or determine updated or replacement expiration dates for your credit card in the event that the credit card you provided us expires. We reserve the right to charge any renewal card issued to you to the same extent as the expired card. If payment is not received from your credit card issuer, you agree to pay all amounts due upon demand. You agree to pay all costs of collection, including attorney’s fees and costs, on any outstanding balance. In certain instances, the issuer of your credit card may charge you a foreign transaction fee or related charges, which you will be responsible to pay. Please check with your bank and credit card issuer for details.

2.7 ACCOUNT CANCELLATION

You may cancel your Plan upon 30 days notice by sending an email to billing@kissmetrics.io.

If your plan renews within 30 days of cancelation request, you are responsible for full payment of following pay period.  Payment for final pay period is made at time of cancelation request.

If you cancel your Plan, you will lose all access, upon the expiration of your final paid period, to the Services and any data or information stored in your account (see Section 11 (“Term and Termination”) for additional details).

If any controversy, allegation, or claim arises out of or relates to the Services, the Website, your Plan, or this Agreement, including but not limited to claims for indemnification, contribution, or cross-claims in a pending action involving one or more third parties (collectively, a “Dispute”), then either you or Kissmetrics may elect to submit the Dispute to be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration before a sole arbitrator in accordance with the then current Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. If an in-person arbitration hearing is required, then it will be conducted in San Francisco, California; but if the applicable arbitration rules or laws require the arbitration to be conducted in the “metropolitan statistical area” (as defined by the U.S. Census Bureau) where you are a resident at the time the Dispute is submitted to arbitration, Kissmetrics shall have the right to elect to proceed to arbitration in such location. All parties to the arbitration will have the right, at their own expense, to be represented by an attorney or other advocate of their choosing. You and Kissmetrics will pay the administrative and arbitrator’s fees and other costs in accordance with the applicable arbitration rules; but if applicable arbitration rules or laws require Kissmetrics to pay a greater portion or all of such fees and costs in order for this Section 13.4 to be enforceable, then Kissmetrics will have the right to elect to pay the fees and costs and proceed to arbitration.

In arbitration, as with a court, the arbitrator must honor the terms of this Agreement and can award the prevailing party damages and other relief (including attorneys’ fees). However, WITH ARBITRATION (a) THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY, (b) THE ARBITRATION PROCEEDINGS AND ARBITRATION OUTCOME ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN CONFIDENTIALITY RULES, AND (c) JUDICIAL REVIEW OF THE ARBITRATION OUTCOME IS LIMITED.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IF YOU OR WE WANT TO ASSERT A DISPUTE AGAINST THE OTHER, THEN YOU OR WE MUST COMMENCE IT WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE DISPUTE ARISES OR IT WILL BE FOREVER BARRED.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AGREE THAT NO ARBITRATION SHALL BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER; THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS-ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; AND THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY ON BEHALF OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC OR ANY OTHER PERSONS.

13.5 INJUNCTIVE RELIEF

The foregoing provisions of this Section 13.4 will not apply to any (a) legal action taken by you or Kissmetrics to seek an injunction or other equitable relief or (b) controversy, allegation or claim that arises out of relates to your or Kissmetrics’ actual or alleged intellectual property rights.
