Service Agreement

---

This is a contract between you and AutoManager, Inc. This contract refers to AutoManager, Inc. as "we," "us," or "our." This contract applies to any AutoManager sites (and their successor sites), services (including pre-release services) and software, including all updates, support, and content. This contract refers to all of these as the "service." This contract also covers your use of any additional AutoManager services for which you sign up while this contract is in force, unless other terms accompany those services. If so, those terms apply. You represent that you are at least 18 years of age or have attained the age of majority where you live, and that all information you supply is true and correct. Each service may have other posted notices or codes of conduct. All such notices and codes of conduct are incorporated by reference into this contract.

You may only use the service if you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the service. This contract limits our liability and disclaims warranties for the service to the maximum extent permitted by law. Please read these sections of the contract carefully.

1. When You May Use the Service

If you create an account to use the service, you may start using the service as soon as you have finished the sign-up process. As indicated during the setup process, some parts of the service may not be available right away while we configure them for your use. If you do not create an account to use the service, you can use the available service right away.

2. How You May Use the Service

In using the service, you will

• comply with all laws,
• comply with any codes of conduct or other notices we provide,
• comply with the Terms of Use of partner services and affiliates which you connect to or interact with through AutoManager,
• keep your password secret, and
• promptly notify us if you learn of a security breach related to the service.

3. How You May Not Use the Service

In using the service, you may not

• use the service in any way that harms AutoManager or its affiliates, resellers, distributors and/or vendors, or any customer of an AutoManager party,
• engage in, facilitate, or further unlawful conduct,
• damage, disable, overburden, or impair the service (or the networks connected to the service) or interfere with anyone’s use and enjoyment of the service,
• resell or redistribute the service, or any part of the service,
• use any portion of the service as a destination linked from any unsolicited bulk messages or unsolicited commercial messages ("spam"),
• use any automated process or service to access and/or use the service (such as a BOT, a spider, periodic caching of information stored by AutoManager or "meta-searching"), or
• use any unauthorized means to modify or reroute, or attempt to modify or reroute, the service.

4. Your Service Account

You may establish a service account and password for the service. The service may enable you to have other people create member accounts and passwords associated with your account. We call these "associated accounts." You are responsible for all activity under your account, associated accounts, and passwords.

5. Associated Account Users

If you are the user of an associated account, then the holder of the service account has full control over your associated account. This control includes the right to end the service, close or alter your associated account at any time, and in some cases, to request and receive computer and service use information related to your associated account. Any data related to your associated account is collected and delivered to the account holder and AutoManager.

6. How We May Change This Contract

AutoManager may change this contract at any time without notice. If we make a material change to this contract, we will notify you at least 30 days before the change takes place. If you do not agree to the change, you must cancel and stop using the service before the change takes place. If you do not stop using the service, your continued use of the service will be under the changed contract.

7. Charges and Billing

This section applies in all situations in which you pay AutoManager directly for a service. If you pay a company other than AutoManager for a service, then the charges and billing terms are as stated by that company. Even if you do not pay for the service, you may still incur other charges incidental to using the service; for example, charges for phone or Internet access, mobile text messaging, wireless service and other data transmissions.

• Payment. When you sign up for the service, you will provide a payment method. You confirm that you are authorized to use the payment method. You authorize us to charge you for the service using your payment method and for any paid feature of the service for which you choose to sign up or use while this contract is in force. If the amount to be charged to your payment method is greater than the amount you pre-authorized, we will tell you the amount at least 10 days before we charge you.
• Charges. You will pay service charges in advance. We may charge you at one time for more than one of your prior billing periods. If we told you that the service will be provided indefinitely or automatically renewed, we may automatically renew your service and charge you for any renewal term.
• Updates to your Billing Account.You must keep all information in your billing account accurate and current, including your billing address and any expiration date for your payment method. You may change your payment method at any time. If you tell us to stop using your payment method and do not provide an alternative payment method, we will cancel your service. Your notice to us will not affect charges we submit to your billing account before we reasonably could act on your request.
• Trial Period Offers. You may receive a limited time of free service or some other trial period offer. Unless we tell you otherwise, if you are participating in any trial period offer, you must cancel the service by the end of the trial period to avoid incurring charges or having your service downgraded to a service for which there is no subscription fee. If you do not cancel your service and we have told you that the service will automatically be converted into a paid subscription at the end of the trial period, then you authorize us to charge your payment method for the service. If we downgrade your service to one for which there is no subscription fee, some of your data may not be available to you and AutoManager may delete that data permanently from our servers. You are responsible for taking the necessary steps to back up your data and ensuring that you maintain your primary means of business.
• Prices and Price Increases.
  • The price for the service excludes taxes, phone and Internet access charges, mobile text messaging, wireless service and other data transmissions, unless stated otherwise. These taxes and charges are your responsibility. Currency exchange settlements are based on your agreement with your payment method provider.
  • If there is a specific time length and price for your service offer, then that price will remain in force for that time. When the offer period ends, we will charge you a new price for that service.
  • We may change the price of the service from time to time, but we will give you at least 30 days notice before a new price takes effect. If you do not agree to the new price, then you must cancel and stop using the service before the new price takes effect. If your service is on a period basis (for example, monthly or annually), then the new price will start on the date that we indicate.
• Service Conversion. You may be able to switch your service to a different service. If you do, you authorize us to charge your payment method for any new service charges. If you switch to a service for which we do not charge a subscription fee or for which we charge a lower fee, we may, but are not required to, refund the unused portion of the service charge for the subscription fee service you previously used or the difference in the amount of the service fees. You may not credit any refunds to other services.
• Refunds. All charges are non-refundable unless expressly stated otherwise, or otherwise provided by law. The costs of any returns will be at your expense, unless otherwise provided by law.
• Payments to You. To receive a payment, you must promptly provide us with all information we need to make the payment (for example, bank account information for receiving the payment). You must provide us with the information we request before your right to receive payment accrues. You are responsible for the accuracy of the information you provide and any taxes you may incur as a result of receiving a payment. If you receive a payment that was not due to you, we may reverse or seek return of the payment, and you agree to cooperate with us.
• Billing Statement; Errors. If we make an error on your bill, we will correct it promptly after you tell us and we investigate the charge. You must tell us within 120 days after an error first appears on your bill. If you do not tell us within this time, we will not be required to correct the error. You release us from all liability and claims of loss resulting from any error that you do not report to us within 120 days after the error first appears on your statement. If you do not tell us within this time, we will not be required to correct the error.
• Late Payments. Except to the extent prohibited by law, we may assess a late charge if you do not pay on time regardless of any disputes you may have raised about your bill. You must pay these late charges when we bill you for them. The late charge will be the lesser of 1% of the unpaid amount each month or the maximum rate that is permitted by law. We may use a third party to collect past due amounts. You must pay for all reasonable costs we incur to collect any past due amounts. These costs may include reasonable attorneys’ fees and other legal fees and costs. We may suspend or cancel your service if you do not pay in full and on time.

8. Changes to the Service; Cancellation or Termination

• By AutoManager.We may change the service at any time and for any reason without notice. We may cancel or suspend your service or a portion of your service at any time and for any reason without notice, including if you violate the terms of this contract. If we do, your right to use the service will stop right away. Cancellation of the service will not change your obligation to pay any charges due on your billing account. If we cancel the service without cause, we will refund the unused portion of your service charge for that period on a pro rata basis.
• By You. You may cancel your service at any time for any reason. Certain service offers may require cancellation charges, and you will pay all cancellation charges as specified in the materials describing the offer. Cancellation of the service by you will not alter your obligation to pay all charges made to your billing account.
• Data. Upon termination or cancellation of the service by you or us for any reason, AutoManager may delete your data permanently from our servers. You are responsible for taking the necessary steps to back up your data and ensuring that you maintain your primary means of business.
• Waiver of rights and obligations. To the extent necessary to implement the termination of this contract, each party waives any right and obligation under any applicable law or regulation to request or obtain intervention of the courts to terminate this contract.

9. Limits On Service

AutoManager may establish limits on the service. For example, we may limit

• the number of days the service will retain messages, photos and other content that AutoManager, you or other users may upload or provide,
• the number and size of messages that you may send or receive through the service,
• the maximum storage space on AutoManager’s servers available to you,
• the amount of bandwidth available for traffic to a website that we host for you,
• the number of users on your account or any associated accounts,
• the number of service accounts to which you may subscribe with one credit card,
• how long we retain an inactive service account, which we define as one where you do not sign in to the service for an extended period of time, and
• the number of transactions you can conduct through the service.

If you exceed the published service limits, AutoManager reserves the right to cancel your service.

10. A Service May Be a Pre-release Version

A particular service may be a pre-release version. It may not work the way a final version of the feature or service will. We may change it for the final, commercial version. We may not release a commercial version. We also reserve the right to change a pre-release service at any time without advance notice to you.

In the event you assert a claim that relates to or implicates your relationship with a third party, you shall only assert such claim against the third party, and you will not assert any such claim against AutoManager, even if AutoManager assisted in billing for the third party offering.

You also give to third parties, without charge, any patent rights needed for their products, technologies, and services to use or interface with any specific parts of a AutoManager software or service that includes the feedback. You will not give feedback that is subject to a license that requires AutoManager to license its software or documentation to third parties because we include your feedback in them. These rights survive this contract.

17. Our Notices to You

This contract is in electronic form. We have promised to send you certain information in connection with the service and we have the right to send you this information in electronic form. There may be other information about the service that the law requires us to send to you. We may send this information to you in electronic form.

We may provide required information to you

• by e-mail at the e-mail address you specified when you signed up for the service, or
• on your home page when we first send you an e-mail notice alerting you to the notice on your home page.

Notices will be deemed given and received on the transmission date of the e-mail. As long as you can access and use the service, you have the necessary software and hardware to receive these notices. If you do not consent to receive notices electronically, you must cancel the service.

18. No Warranty

AutoManager makes no guarantee about the reliability, accuracy, or timeliness of the service or the results obtained from the service. You understand that the security mechanisms in the service have inherent limitations and that you are responsible for determining that the service meets your needs.

We provide the service "as-is," "with all faults," and "as available." You bear the risk of using it. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the AutoManager parties give no express warranties, guarantees, or conditions. You may have additional rights under your local laws that this contract cannot change. To the extent permitted by law, we exclude any implied warranties or conditions including those of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, workmanlike effort, non-infringement, and satisfactory quality.

19. Liability Limitation

You can recover from the AutoManager parties only direct damages up to an amount equal to your service charge for one month or the equivalent of $5 USD (whichever is greater). To the extent permitted by law, you cannot recover any other damages from the AutoManager parties, including consequential, lost profits, special, indirect, or incidental damages.

This limitation applies to anything related to:

• the service,
• content (including code) on third party Internet sites, third party programs or third party conduct,
• viruses or other disabling features that affect your access to or use of the service,
• incompatibility between the service and other services, software, and hardware,
• delays or failures you may have in initiating, conducting or completing any transmissions or transactions in connection with the service in an accurate or timely manner, and
• claims for breach of contract, breach of warranty, guarantee or condition, strict liability, negligence, or other tort.

It also applies even if

• this remedy does not fully compensate you for any losses, or fails of its essential purpose, or
• AutoManager knew or should have known about the possibility of the damages.

Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you. They also may not apply to you because your province or country or region may not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental, consequential, or other damages.

20. Claim Must Be Filed Within One Year

To the extent permitted by law, any claim related to this contract or the service must be brought within one year. The one-year period begins on the date when the claim first could be filed. It if is not filed, then that claim is permanently barred. This section applies to you and your successors. It also applies to AutoManager and its successors and assigns.

21. AutoManager Company, Applicable Law, and Place for Resolving Disputes

California state law governs the interpretation of this contract and applies to claims for breach of it, regardless of conflict of laws principles. All other claims, including claims regarding consumer protection laws, unfair competition laws, and in tort, will be subject to the laws of your state of residence in the United States, or if you live outside the United States, the laws of the country or region to which we direct your service. You and we irrevocably consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state or federal courts in Los Angeles County, California, USA for all disputes arising out of or relating to this contract.

23. Contract Interpretation

All parts of this contract apply to the maximum extent permitted by law. A court may hold that we cannot enforce a part of this contract as written. If this happens, then that part will be replaced with terms that most closely match the intent of the part that we cannot enforce. The rest of this contract will not change. This contract, together with any codes of conduct and other notices we provide, is the entire contract between AutoManager and you regarding the service. It supersedes any other contract or statements related to the service. If you have confidentiality obligations related to the service, those obligations remain in force (for example, you may have been a tester for a pre-release version of a service). The section titles in the contract do not limit the other terms of this contract.

23. Assignment

AutoManager may assign this contract, in whole or part, at any time without notice to you. You may not assign this contract, or any part of it, to any other party. Any attempt to do so is void. Instead, you may cancel your service. The other party may then establish a service account and enter into a contract with us.

24. Force Majeure

AutoManager will not be liable for any loss or damage or be deemed to be in breach of this contract due to any event or circumstance beyond its reasonable control, including, war, invasion, electrical shortages, terrorist attacks, earthquakes, or acts of god.
