EchoSage is a product of Sehhey, LLC. Sehhey, LLC is a U.S. company and subject only to U.S. laws and jurisdiction.

Please read these Terms of Service carefully before using echosage.com (the "Site") and/or the other domains, websites, products, applications, mobile applications, services and/or Content provided by EchoSage (all of those collectively with the Site, the "Services")(Sehhey, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability corporation, collectively with its agents, representatives, consultants, employees, officers, and directors, "Sehhey", "we" or "us").

By accepting this agreement, you're bound by its conditions. It covers important topics such as our rights to change its conditions, limitations of liability, privacy, and settlement of disputes by arbitration instead of in court.

If you accept this agreement, it will apply to all your EchoSage service from us.

Carefully read the terms and conditions set forth in this EchoSage Terms of Service Agreement ("AGREEMENT") before using any tools or other EchoSage applications ("APPLICATIONS"). To the extent you use any of the APPLICATIONS, you agree to be bound by all of the terms and conditions set forth in this AGREEMENT.

Limited License.

Sehhey grants to you a worldwide, non-exclusive, limited license to use the object code version of the APPLICATIONS. All rights not expressly granted in this AGREEMENT are reserved by the Sehhey.

Restrictions.

No license is granted to you by this AGREEMENT in the human readable code, known as the source code, of the APPLICATIONS, and no rights are granted to you by this AGREEMENT in any patents, copyrights, trade secrets, trademarks or any other rights in respect of the APPLICATIONS. In addition, no license is granted to you by this AGREEMENT to decompile, reverse engineer, disassemble or modify the APPLICATIONS. Further, no license is granted to you by this AGREEMENT to (i) remove, efface or obscure any copyright or other proprietary notices from the APPLICATIONS or (ii) exploit, copy, reproduce, sublicense, transfer or assign the APPLICATIONS.

Ownership.

You agree that Sehhey retains all rights, title and interest in and to the APPLICATIONS and all copies of the APPLICATIONS. This includes all copyrights in the APPLICATIONS.

Modifications to this Agreement.

Sehhey reserves the right to modify this Agreement by (1) posting a revised Agreement on and/or through the Services and (2) providing notice to you that this Agreement has changed, generally via email where practicable, and otherwise through the Services (such as through a notification on your Sehhey Dashboard or in our mobile applications). Modifications will not apply retroactively. You are responsible for reviewing and becoming familiar with any modifications to this Agreement.

We may sometimes ask you to review and to explicitly agree to (or reject) a revised version of this Agreement. In such cases, modifications will be effective at the time of your agreement to the modified version of this Agreement. If you do not agree at that time, you are not permitted to use the Services.

In cases where we do not ask for your explicit agreement to a modified version of this Agreement, but otherwise provide notice as set forth above, the modified version of this Agreement will become effective fourteen days after we have posted the modified Agreement and provided you notification of the modifications. Your use of the Services following that period constitutes your acceptance of the terms and conditions of this Agreement as modified. If you do not agree to the modifications, you are not permitted to use, and should discontinue your use of, the Services.

Note that, if you have prepaid for any Paid Services (as defined below) prior to a modification of this Agreement, your use of such prepaid Paid Services is governed by the version of this Agreement in effect at the time Sehhey received your prepayment.

As Sehhey grows and improves, we might have to make changes to these Terms of Service. When we do, we'll let you know. We're also going to make it a practice to post old versions so it's easy to see changes/additions/deletions. To see old versions, scroll down to the end of this document.

About You

*You represent that you're at least 18 years old and have the legal capacity to accept this agreement. If you're ordering for a company, you're representing that you're authorized to bind it, and where the context requires, "you" means the company.

Your Rights To Refuse Or Cancel This Agreement

THIS AGREEMENT STARTS WHEN YOU ACCEPT. Paragraphs marked "*" continue after it ends. You accept when you do any of the following things after an opportunity to review this agreement:

  • Give us a written or electronic signature;
  • Tell us orally or electronically that you accept;
  • Activate your service by having us charge your credit card or cash your check;
  • Use your service after making any change or addition when we've told you that the change or addition requires acceptance.

IF YOU DON'T WANT TO ACCEPT, DON'T DO ANY OF THESE THINGS.

Your Rights To Change Or End Your Service; Termination Fees;

*Except as explicitly permitted by this agreement, you're agreeing to maintain service with us for your minimum term of six (6) months. (Periods of suspension of service don't count towards your minimum term.) After that, you'll become a month-to-month customer under this agreement. If you terminate your service as of the end of your minimum term, you won't be responsible for any remaining part of your monthly billing cycle. Otherwise, all terminations by you during a monthly billing cycle become effective on the last day of that billing cycle. You'll remain responsible for all fees and charges incurred until then and won't be entitled to any partial month credits or refunds.

Our Rights To Make Changes

Your service is subject to our business policies, practices, and procedures, which we can change without notice. UNLESS OTHERWISE PROHIBITED BY LAW, WE CAN ALSO CHANGE PRICES AND ANY OTHER CONDITIONS IN THIS AGREEMENT AT ANY TIME BY SENDING YOU WRITTEN NOTICE PRIOR TO THE BILLING PERIOD IN WHICH THE CHANGES WOULD GO INTO EFFECT. IF YOU CHOOSE TO USE YOUR SERVICE AFTER THAT POINT, YOU'RE ACCEPTING THE CHANGES. IF THE CHANGES HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON YOU, HOWEVER, YOU CAN END THE AFFECTED SERVICE, WITHOUT ANY EARLY TERMINATION FEE, JUST BY CALLING US WITHIN 60 DAYS AFTER WE SEND NOTICE OF THE CHANGE.

Payments, Credit Cards

*If you have selected a Monthly payment plan, Monthly Payment is due on the monthly anniversary each month of the date you initially subscribed to the service. If the date you subscribed falls on a non recurring date for following months, your payment will be charged on the closest prior date in following months. (ex: If you begin service on the 31st of May, your credit card will be charged on the 30th on June, but then revert to the 31st in July.)

IF WE DON'T RECEIVE PAYMENT IN FULL WHEN DUE, WE MAY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF THE BILLING ADDRESS WE HAVE ON FILE FOR YOU AT THE TIME, CHARGE YOU A LATE FEE OF UP TO 1.5 PERCENT A MONTH (18 PERCENT ANNUALLY), OR A FLAT $5 A MONTH, WHICHEVER IS GREATER, ON UNPAID BALANCES. WE MAY ALSO CHARGE FOR ANY COLLECTION AGENCY FEES BILLED TO US FOR TRYING TO COLLECT FROM YOU.

Our Rights To Limit Or End Service Or This Agreement

You agree not to resell our service to someone else without our prior written permission. You also agree your Cap-Dat forms service won't be used for any other purpose that isn't allowed by this agreement or that's illegal. WE CAN, WITHOUT NOTICE, LIMIT, SUSPEND, OR END YOUR SERVICE OR ANY AGREEMENT WITH YOU FOR THIS OR ANY OTHER GOOD CAUSE, including, but not limited to: (a) paying late more than once in any 12 months; (b) harassing our employees or agents; (c) lying to us; (d) interfering with our operations; (e) becoming insolvent or going bankrupt; (f) breaching this agreement; (g) providing credit information we can't verify; (h) using your service in a way that adversely affects our network or other customers. We can also temporarily limit your service for any operational or governmental reason.

Disclaimer Of Warranties

*WE MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE CONCERNING YOUR SERVICE. WE CAN'T PROMISE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE SERVICE AND DON'T AUTHORIZE ANYONE TO MAKE ANY WARRANTIES ON OUR BEHALF. THIS DOESN'T DEPRIVE YOU OF ANY WARRANTY RIGHTS YOU MAY HAVE AGAINST ANYONE ELSE.

Waivers And Limitations Of Liability

*UNLESS THE LAW FORBIDS IT IN ANY PARTICULAR CASE, WE EACH AGREE TO LIMIT CLAIMS FOR DAMAGES OR OTHER MONETARY RELIEF AGAINST EACH OTHER TO DIRECT DAMAGES. THIS LIMITATION AND WAIVER WILL APPLY REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER FRAUD, MISREPRESENTATION, BREACH OF CONTRACT, PERSONAL INJURY, PRODUCTS LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER THEORY. THIS MEANS THAT NEITHER OF US WILL SEEK ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, TREBLE, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES FROM THE OTHER. You agree we aren't liable for problems caused by you or a third party; by network congestion, weather, or other things we don't control; or by any act of God.

You agree to hold Sehhey completely harmless for any liability incurred as a result of your publishing content and your use of the EchoSage features and tools that are part of our service.

You acknowledge that you actively made the decision to publish and as such you are responsible for this action.

Dispute Resolution And Mandatory Arbitration

*WE EACH AGREE TO SETTLE DISPUTES (EXCEPT CERTAIN SMALL CLAIMS) ONLY BY ARBITRATION. THERE'S NO JUDGE OR JURY IN ARBITRATION, AND REVIEW IS LIMITED, BUT AN ARBITRATOR CAN AWARD THE SAME DAMAGES AND RELIEF, AND MUST HONOR THE SAME LIMITATIONS IN THIS AGREEMENT, AS A COURT WOULD. IF AN APPLICABLE STATUTE PROVIDES FOR AN AWARD OF ATTORNEY'S FEES, AN ARBITRATOR CAN AWARD THEM, TOO. WE ALSO EACH AGREE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THAT:

(1) THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT APPLIES TO THIS AGREEMENT. EXCEPT FOR QUALIFYING SMALL CLAIMS COURT CASES, ANY CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR ANY PRIOR AGREEMENT FOR WIRELESS SERVICE WITH US OR ANY OF OUR AFFILIATES OR PREDECESSORS IN INTEREST, OR ANY PRODUCT OR SERVICE PROVIDED UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR SUCH A PRIOR AGREEMENT, OR ANY ADVERTISING FOR SUCH PRODUCTS OR SERVICES, WILL BE SETTLED BY ONE OR MORE NEUTRAL ARBITRATORS BEFORE THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION ("AAA") OR BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU ("BBB"). YOU CAN ALSO BRING ANY ISSUES YOU MAY HAVE TO THE ATTENTION OF FEDERAL, STATE, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENT AGENCIES AND THEY CAN, IF THE LAW ALLOWS, SEEK RELIEF AGAINST US ON YOUR BEHALF.


(2) YOU CAN OBTAIN PROCEDURES, RULES, AND FEE INFORMATION FROM THE AAA (WWW.ADR.ORG), THE BBB (WWW.BBB.ORG), OR FROM US. THIS AGREEMENT DOESN'T PERMIT CLASS ARBITRATIONS EVEN IF THOSE PROCEDURES OR RULES WOULD. IN EXCHANGE FOR YOUR AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, WE'RE PROVIDING YOU A FREE INTERNAL MEDIATION PROGRAM. MEDIATION IS A PROCESS FOR MUTUALLY RESOLVING DISPUTES. A MEDIATOR CAN HELP PARTIES REACH AGREEMENT, BUT DOESN'T DECIDE THEIR ISSUES. IN OUR MEDIATION PROGRAM, WE'LL ASSIGN SOMEONE (WHO MAY BE FROM OUR COMPANY) NOT DIRECTLY INVOLVED IN THE DISPUTE TO MEDIATE. THAT PERSON WILL HAVE ALL THE RIGHTS AND PROTECTIONS OF A MEDIATOR. NOTHING SAID IN THE MEDIATION CAN BE USED IN A LATER ARBITRATION OR LAWSUIT. CONTACT US AT WWW.ECHOSAGE.COM OR THROUGH CUSTOMER SERVICE TO FIND OUT MORE.

(3) IF YOU REQUEST MEDIATION UNDER OUR PROGRAM, PARTICIPATE IN GOOD FAITH IN AT LEAST ONE TELEPHONIC MEDIATION SESSION, AND THE MEDIATION DOESN'T RESOLVE THE DISPUTES BETWEEN US, WE'LL PAY ANY FILING FEE LATER CHARGED YOU BY THE AAA OR BBB FOR ONE ARBITRATION OF THOSE DISPUTES. IF THAT ARBITRATION PROCEEDS, WE'LL ALSO PAY ANY FURTHER ADMINISTRATIVE AND ARBITRATOR FEES LATER CHARGED FOR IT AND (IF THE ARBITRATION AWARD IS APPEALABLE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT) ANY APPEAL TO A NEW 3 ARBITRATOR PANEL. WE MAY MAKE YOU A WRITTEN OFFER OF SETTLEMENT ANY TIME BEFORE ARBITRATION BEGINS. IF WE DO AND YOU DON'T RECOVER IN ARBITRATION MORE THAN 75% OF THE OFFERED AMOUNT, YOU AGREE TO REPAY US THE LESSER OF ANY FEES WE ADVANCED OR WHAT YOU WOULD HAVE PAID IN FEES AND COSTS IN COURT UNDER SIMILAR CIRCUMSTANCES.

(4) ANY ARBITRATION AWARD MADE AFTER COMPLETION OF AN ARBITRATION IS FINAL AND BINDING AND MAY BE CONFIRMED IN ANY COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION. AN AWARD AND ANY JUDGMENT CONFIRMING IT ONLY APPLIES TO THE ARBITRATION IN WHICH IT WAS AWARDED AND CAN'T BE USED IN ANY OTHER CASE EXCEPT TO ENFORCE THE AWARD ITSELF.

(5) IF FOR SOME REASON THESE ARBITRATION REQUIREMENTS DON'T APPLY, OR A CLAIM PROCEEDS IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT, WE EACH WAIVE ANY TRIAL BY JURY.
