PERMITTED USES, RESTRICTIONS ON USE AND REVISIONS
Subject to this Agreement, User is granted permission to use the Services. User agrees that SenSoft is not acting as User's agent or fiduciary in connection with User's use of the Services.
SenSoft reserves all patent, copyright, trade secret, trade name, trademarks and other proprietary rights related to the Services, and User shall not infringe or violate such rights. SenSoft does not grant User a license to use any of its intellectual property other than those uses expressly granted by this Agreement. User shall not attempt to access any other of SenSoft's systems, programs or data that are not made available for public use. Additionally, no material from this site may be copied, reproduced, republished, uploaded, posted, transmitted, or distributed in any way without SenSoft's explicit written permission. Permission is granted for copying and printing information User needs to use the Services. Modification or use of materials on the site for any purpose other than those permitted in this Agreement is a violation of SenSoft's patent, copyright, trade secret, trade name, trademark and/or other proprietary rights. User acknowledges that there is no adequate remedy at law for such a violation and that SenSoft shall have the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief for such a violation. SenSoft's resort to injunctive or equitable relief shall not limit SenSoft's rights to any other relief to which it may be entitled, regardless of the nature of the remedy. In the event that SenSoft seeks relief for violations or other claims arising from or related to this paragraph, User agrees to pay all of SenSoft's costs related to seeking such relief, including reasonable attorneys' fees, expert witness fees and other professionals' fees.
SenSoft reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to modify or amend this Agreement at any time for any purpose. Any User of the Services, by using said Services, acknowledges that said User shall be bound by any such modifications or amendments regardless of whether or not said User is aware of such modifications or amendments. Users of the Services accept full responsibility for becoming aware of any modifications or amendments to this Agreement. SenSoft shall post notification of said modifications and amendments on its website for Easy SIP® Web Tool Users of its Services and shall send a paper copy of such modifications and amendments to the Turnkey Service Solution Users. The publication or sending of such notices shall be SenSoft's only responsibility regarding such modifications or amendments and the failure of User to become aware of or receive such notices shall not affect the effectiveness of said notices.
REVIEW OF DATA PRIOR TO SUBMISSION
Subject to the terms of this Agreement, User will provide SenSoft with its data for utilization under the particular Service to which User has subscribed. At the request of the User, SenSoft may also create additional data. SenSoft shall place the data into the form required for each Service and shall transmit the data in this new form to User prior to any submission. User shall review and approve the results produced by SenSoft prior to the time that SenSoft electronically or otherwise forwards the data on behalf of User. Subsequent to such approval, User is responsible for any errors in the reformulated data and SenSoft has no responsibility whatsoever for any such errors, regardless of whether or not SenSoft had reason to know that such errors existed. USER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ERRORS IN SUCH DATA MIGHT FORM THE BASIS FOR CIVIL OR CRIMINAL LIABILITY UNDER THE FALSE CLAIMS ACT, OR OTHER STATE OR FEDERAL LAW, THAT USER ACCEPTS ALL RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY SUCH LIABILITY, AND THAT USER HEREBY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO CLAIM THAT SENSOFT IS, IN ANY WAY, RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY SUCH LIABILITY. IN THE EVENT THAT SENSOFT IS JOINED AS A PARTY TO ANY ACTIONS ALLEGING SUCH LIABILITY, USER SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD SENSOFT HARMLESS FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL DEBTS, ACCOUNTS, SUITS, DAMAGES, DEMANDS, CLAIMS, JUDGMENTS, SUITS CAUSES, PROCEEDINGS, AND CAUSES OF ACTIONS OF ANY KIND ALLEGING SUCH LIABILITY AND SHALL PAY THE COSTS OF SENSOFT'S DEFENSE FROM ANY SUCH LIABILITY, INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS' FEES, EXPERT WITNESS FEES, AND OTHER PROFESSIONAL FEES. User is also responsible for acquiring and maintaining all equipment, computers, software and communications services (such as long distance phone charges) relating to the access and use of the Services, and for all expenses relating thereto (plus applicable taxes).
PAYMENT OF FEES AND CHARGES
The payment of all fees and charges to SenSoft must be made in advance by User's valid credit or charge card (or by other agreed upon payment mechanism). In the event that SenSoft extends the time for payment, User shall make payment on or before the date it is due. In the event that SenSoft must retain an attorney to collect any fees or charges arising from or related to the Services, User agrees to pay all of the costs of collecting said fees and charges, including reasonable attorneys' fees, expert witness fees and other professionals' fees.
OPERATION
SenSoft currently expects to make the Services available for the indefinite future. However, SenSoft has the right at any time, and for any reason, to modify or discontinue any aspect or feature of the Services, including but not limited to its content, functionality or hours of availability, the equipment needed for its access or use, or its pricing. User must confirm that the pricing for use of the Services has not changed, particularly if some time has passed between the date User started preparation of User's use of the Services and the date the Services are completed. Applicable prices are those prices that are in effect on the date the User begins or Opens an Order. Any use of the Services by User after SenSoft's publication of any such changes shall constitute an acceptance of the Agreement, as modified by prior modifications. User agrees to read and accept the Agreement each time it is modified and to check for changes to the Agreement on each visit to the website. The Agreement shall bear the last modification date at the time. User agrees that SenSoft is permitted to access and use User's information in order to perform the Services and, if necessary, to access such information to obtain contact information in order to provide notifications relating to the Service.
PRIVACY AND SECURITY OF CUSTOMER INFORMATION
SenSoft will not sell, give, or otherwise make use of the information provided through its Services other than as needed to provide the Services.
User is responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of User's password for use of the Services. SenSoft has taken reasonable measures to protect the security of User's information and to retain User's information, so that it can be reused for future Orders. However, SenSoft (i) does not guarantee the security of information collected during the User's use of the Service, (ii) shall not be liable in any way for a compromise of User's data, and (iii) has no obligation to store or maintain any information User provides to it. User acknowledges that User accepts all risks that User's Confidential Information (as defined below) may be compromised and that SenSoft shall have no liability to User regarding security of User's data. SenSoft follows reasonable security procedures, but cannot guarantee that its security procedures can prevent attempts to gain access to, or disclosure of, the data. User acknowledges that SenSoft would not be able to provide the Services if it had to completely guarantee non-disclosure of User's Confidential Information.
Upon termination of User's use of the Services, User's data may still reside on SenSoft's information systems. At such time, User may elect to leave the information on said information systems or to have SenSoft delete such information. User acknowledges that SenSoft cannot fully delete all such information and agrees that SenSoft's deletion procedures are adequate to delete such information and shall relieve SenSoft of any further requirements to satisfy its obligation to delete User information.
SenSoft shall use the same procedures and methods for safeguarding User's confidential information as it uses to safeguard its own confidential information and shall not knowingly disclose such data to a third party other than in the course of providing the Services. For the purposes of this Agreement, "User's Confidential Information" shall mean all information disclosed by User to SenSoft for the purposes of utilizing the Services. User's Confidential Information shall not include any such information as is publicly known or as is disclosed to SenSoft by a third party without breach of a confidentiality agreement between User and that third party.
SenSoft shall not be liable to User for disclosure of User's Confidential Information in compliance with a court or other administrative order; provided, however, that SenSoft shall notify User of such order within a reasonable time of receiving the order, so that User may seek a protective order, if User so chooses.
PERMISSION TO USE CLIENT AS REFERENCE
SenSoft shall have the right to use User's company name as a client reference unless User refuses to allow such use and notifies SenSoft in writing of said refusal.
SATISFACTION GUARANTEED FOR ALL REGISTERED USERS
If it is not 100% satisfied with the Services, User shall immediately stop using the Services and contact SenSoft Customer Service within 60 days of paying for the Services to request a full refund of the fees paid by User (if any) to SenSoft for using the Services. Such full refund shall be SenSoft's entire liability to User and User's exclusive remedy. User should reference the Order Number when requesting a refund. This refund offer is expressly limited to the most recent use of the Services by User and cannot be used to request any refund of fees paid for earlier transactions. Annual Subscription Payments are not refundable after the first Order has been accepted by User, as these Subscriptions provide the Service at a substantial discount from the regular Retail price.
LIMITED EXPRESS WARRANTY
SenSoft warrants to User the accuracy of the work performed by SenSoft. In the event of an error caused by it, SenSoft will, in its sole discretion, either correct the error or refund any payment for the data submission in question. Such remedy shall be the exclusive and sole remedy for an error caused by SenSoft.

USER WARRANTY REGARDING NON-INFRINGEMENT
User hereby warrants that no data submitted by it to SenSoft is the result of infringement of the intellectual property rights of any other person or entity. User shall indemnify and hold SenSoft harmless from and against any and all claims, debts, accounts, suits, damages, demands, claims, judgments, suits causes, proceedings and causes of action of any kind alleging that User and/or SenSoft is liable to any third party for damages arising from or related to infringement of that third party's intellectual property rights by the submission of User's data. User shall pay all of SenSoft's costs in defending against such allegations, including reasonable attorneys' fees, expert witness fees and other professionals' fees.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND DAMAGES
The User acknowledges that the operation and availability of the communications systems used for accessing and interacting with the Service or to transmit information (i.e., the public telephone, computer networks and the Internet) can be unpredictable and may, from time to time, interfere with or prevent access to the Services or its operation. SenSoft is not in any way responsible for any such interference with or prevention of the User's use of or access to the Services.
TO THE FULL EXTENT ALLOWED BY STATE AND FEDERAL LAW, USER AGREES THAT SENSOFT IS NOT LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE INCURRED AS A RESULT OF USER'S USE OF THIS SERVICE. USER'S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AND THE ENTIRE LIABILITY OF SENSOFT AND THE PARTICIPATING PARTIES FOR ANY REASON SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT PAID BY USER FOR THE SERVICES AT THE TIME ANY LOSS OCCURRED. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, SENSOFT AND THE PARTICIPATING PARTIES ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF BUSINESS, LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF PROFITS OR INVESTMENT OR THE LIKE), WHETHER BASED ON BREACH OF CONTRACT, BREACH OF WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), PRODUCT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF SENSOFT OR THE PARTICIPATING PARTIES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES AND EVEN IF A REMEDY SET FORTH HEREIN IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
The limitations of damages or liability set forth in this Agreement are fundamental elements of the basis of the bargain between SenSoft and User. User acknowledges and agrees that SenSoft would not be able to provide these products on an economic basis without such limitations.
MISCELLANEOUS
SenSoft shall have the right to immediately terminate User's access to or use of the Services in the event of any activities which are in breach of this Agreement or conduct which, in SenSoft's sole discretion, interferes with the operation or use of the Service. Termination of this Agreement automatically terminates User's limited license and authorization to use and/or access the Services and any content or other material contained therein. SenSoft is entitled to enforce its rights hereunder by an action for damages or for specific performance, injunctive or other equitable relief.
