Terms of Service

EzWebOrders Terms of Service

Merchants with a webspace listed under the domain name ezweborders.com, have engaged EzWebOrders, a division of Unified Systems Inc. (a Florida Corporation), to provide customers with a direct online ordering gateway managed by the merchant. EzWebOrders provides, monitors and maintains the managed hosted solution and the web space. EzwebOrders also provides security, privacy and other guidelines in place to help provide a quality user experience. The following agreement constitutes the Terms of Service for use of this system. All participating merchants agree to uphold these terms and other guidelines found under the ezweborders.com domain.

1. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS

EzWebOrders provides a means of online ordering and purchasing of products and services and various other online services, (collectively, "the Service") subject to the following Terms of Service ("TOS"). By using the Service in any way, you are agreeing to comply with the TOS. In addition, when using particular EzWebOrders services, you agree to abide by any applicable posted guidelines for all EzWebOrders services, which may change from time to time. Should you object to any term or condition of the TOS, any guidelines, or any subsequent modifications thereto or become dissatisfied with the EzWebOrders service in any way, your only recourse is to immediately discontinue use of the Service. Additional terms under a Merchant Services Agreement apply specifically to merchants subscribing to the Service.

2. MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT

We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to change, modify or otherwise alter these terms and conditions at any time. Such modifications shall become effective immediately upon the posting thereof. You may not be notified of any changes to this agreement and should review it on a regular basis for modifications. You can find the most recent version of the TOS at:

3. CONTENT

You understand that all postings, messages, text, files, images, photos, video, sounds, or other materials ("Content") posted on, transmitted through, or linked from the Service, are the sole responsibility of the merchant from whom such Content originated. You understand that EzWebOrders does not control, and is not responsible for Content made available through the Service, and that by using the Service, you may be exposed to Content that is offensive, indecent, inaccurate, misleading, or otherwise objectionable. Furthermore, the EzWebOrders site and Content available through the Service may contain links to other websites, which are completely independent of EzWebOrders. EzWebOrders makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy, completeness or authenticity of the information contained in any such site. Your linking to any other websites is at your own risk. You agree that you must evaluate, and bear all risks associated with, the use of any Content, that you may not rely on said Content, and that under no circumstances will EzWebOrders be liable in any way for any Content or for any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of any Content posted, emailed or otherwise made available via the Service. You acknowledge that EzWebOrders does not pre-screen or approve Content, but that EzWebOrders shall have the right (but not the obligation) in its sole discretion to refuse, delete or move any Content that is available via the Service, for violating the letter or spirit of the TOS or for any other reason.

4. THIRD PARTY CONTENT, SITES, AND SERVICES

The EzWebOrders site and Content available through the Service may contain features and functions that may link you or provide you with access to third party content which is completely independent of EzWebOrders, including web sites, directories, servers, networks, systems, information and databases, applications, software, programs, products or services, and the Internet as a whole.

Your interactions with organizations and/or individuals found on or through the Service, including payment and delivery of goods or services, and any other terms, conditions, warranties or representations associated with such dealings, are solely between you and such organizations and/or individuals. You should make whatever investigation you feel necessary or appropriate before proceeding with any online or offline transaction with any of these third parties.

You agree that EzWebOrders shall not be responsible or liable for any loss or damage of any sort incurred as the result of any such dealings. If there is a dispute between participants on this site, or between users and any third party, you understand and agree that EzWebOrders is under no obligation to become involved. In the event that you have a dispute with one or more other users, you hereby release EzWebOrders, its officers, employees, agents and successors in rights from claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind or nature, known or unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way related to such disputes and / or our service. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: "A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which, if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor."

5. NOTIFICATION OF CLAIMS OF INFRINGEMENT

If you believe that your work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, or your intellectual property rights have been otherwise violated, please notify us at comments@ezweborders.com

Please provide us with the following:

a) Identify the material on the EzWebOrders site that you claim is infringing, with enough detail so that we may locate it on the web site;

b) A statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law;

c) A statement by you declaring under penalty of perjury that (1) the above information in your Notice is accurate, and (2) that you are the owner of the copyright interest involved or that you are authorized to act on behalf of that owner;

d) Your address, telephone number, and email address; and

e) Your physical or electronic signature.

EzWebOrders will remove the infringing posting(s), subject to the procedures outlined in the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA).

6. PRIVACY AND INFORMATION DISCLOSURE

EzWebOrders has established a Privacy Policy to explain to users how their information is collected and used, which is located at the following web address:

http://www.EzWebOrders.com/privacy.php

Your use of the EzWebOrders web site or the Service signifies acknowledgement of and agreement to our Privacy Policy. You further acknowledge and agree that EzWebOrders may, in its sole discretion, preserve or disclose your Content, as well as your information, such as email addresses, IP addresses, time stamps, and other user information, if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such preservation or disclosure is reasonably necessary to: comply with legal process; enforce the TOS; respond to claims that any Content violates the rights of third-parties; respond to claims that contact information (e.g. phone number, street address) of a third-party has been posted or transmitted without their consent or as a form of harassment; protect the rights, property, or personal safety of EzWebOrders, its users or the general public.

7. NO SPAM POLICY

Any unauthorized use of EzWebOrders systems is a violation of these Terms and certain federal and state laws. You may not use information gathered by use of this service to email other users. Such violations may subject the sender and his or her agents to civil and criminal penalties. A participating merchant may, in accordance with the law, email their clients with information necessary to process an order or regarding their account. Users may select to opt out of other types of emails from the merchant.
Merchants shall not use the EzWebOrders email system to send more than 2 promotional emails per month to subscribing users. Users that feel this section of the TOS is being violated may file a grievance by emailing EzWebOrders at abuse@ezweborders.com. Failure by any EzWebOrders partner to comply with policies in place to help protect the secutiry or privacy of users subjects their account to suspension or termination.

8. LIMITATIONS ON SERVICE

You acknowledge that EzWebOrders may establish limits concerning use of the Service, including the maximum number of days that Content will be retained by the Service, the maximum number and size of postings, email messages, or other Content that may be transmitted or stored by the Service, and the frequency with which you may access the Service. You agree that EzWebOrders has no responsibility or liability for the deletion or failure to store any Content maintained or transmitted by the Service. You acknowledge that EzWebOrders reserves the right at any time to modify or discontinue the Service (or any part thereof) with or without notice, and that EzWebOrders shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension or discontinuance of the Service.

9. ACCESS TO THE SERVICE

EzWebOrders grants you a limited, revocable, nonexclusive license to access the Service for your own personal use. This license does not include: (a) access to the Service by Posting Agents; or (b) any collection, aggregation, copying, duplication, display or derivative use of the Service nor any use of data mining, robots, spiders, or similar data gathering and extraction tools for any purpose unless expressly permitted by EzWebOrders. A limited exception to (b) is provided to general purpose internet search engines and non-commercial public archives that use such tools to gather information for the sole purpose of displaying hyperlinks to the Service, provided they each do so from a stable IP address or range of IP addresses using an easily identifiable agent and comply with our robots.txt file.
Use of the Service beyond the scope of authorized access granted to you by EzWebOrders immediately terminates said permission or license. In order to collect, aggregate, copy, duplicate, display or make derivative use of the Service or any Content made available via the Service for other purposes (including commercial purposes) not stated herein, you must first obtain a license from EzWebOrders.

10. TERMINATION OF SERVICE

Further, you agree that EzWebOrders shall not be liable to you or any third-party for any termination of your access to the Service. Further, you agree not to attempt to use the Service after said termination. Sections 2, 4, 6 and 10-16 shall survive termination of the TOS.

11. PROPRIETARY RIGHTS

The Service is protected to the maximum extent permitted by copyright laws and international treaties. Content displayed on or through the Service is protected by copyright as a collective work and/or compilation, pursuant to copyrights laws, and international conventions.

13. LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL EZWEBORDERS BE LIABLE FOR DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES (EVEN IF EZWEBORDERS HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES), RESULTING FROM ANY ASPECT OF YOUR USE OF THE EZWEBORDERS SITE OR THE SERVICE, WHETHER THE DAMAGES ARISE FROM USE OR MISUSE OF THE EZWEBORDERS SITE OR THE SERVICE, FROM INABILITY TO USE THE EZWEBORDERS SITE OR THE SERVICE, OR THE INTERRUPTION, SUSPENSION, MODIFICATION, ALTERATION, OR TERMINATION OF THE EZWEBORDERS SITE OR THE SERVICE.

15. GENERAL INFORMATION

The TOS constitute the entire agreement between you and EzWebOrders and govern your use of the Service, superseding any prior agreements between you and EzWebOrders. The TOS and the relationship between you and EzWebOrders shall be governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to its conflict of law provisions. You and EzWebOrders agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located within the county of San Francisco, California. The failure of EzWebOrders to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the TOS shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the TOS is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties' intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of the TOS remain in full force and effect. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Service or the TOS must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.

16. VIOLATION OF TERMS AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES

Please report any violations of the TOS, by flagging the posting(s) for review, or by emailing to:
comments@ezweborders.com

Our failure to act with respect to a breach by you or others does not waive our right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches.

You understand and agree that, because damages are often difficult to quantify, if it becomes necessary for EzWebOrders to pursue legal action to enforce these Terms, you will be liable to pay EzWebOrders the following amounts as liquidated damages, which you accept as reasonable estimates of EzWebOrders' damages for the specified breaches of these Terms:

a. If you send unsolicited email advertisements to EzWebOrders email addresses or through EzWebOrders computer systems, you agree to pay EzWebOrders twenty five dollars ($25) for each such email.

b. If you aggregate, display, copy, duplicate, reproduce, or otherwise exploit for any purpose any Content (except for your own Content) in violation of these Terms without EzWebOrders' express written permission, you agree to pay EzWebOrders three thousand dollars ($3,000) for each day on which you engage in such conduct.

Otherwise, you agree to pay EzWebOrders actual damages, to the extent such actual damages can be reasonably calculated. Notwithstanding any other provision of these Terms, EzWebOrders retains the right to seek the remedy of specific performance of any term contained in these Terms, or a preliminary or permanent injunction against the breach of any such term or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in these Terms, or any combination thereof.
