These Terms of Service define the terms under which All Covered, a division of Konica Minolta Business Solutions U.S.A., Inc. (“All Covered”) provides FileAssist file services to you. These Terms of Service shall supplement the Terms and Conditions of Services (“T&Cs”) applicable to your All Covered Schedule of Services. In the event of a conflict between these Terms of Service and the T&Cs, these Terms of Service shall control. By using FileAssist, you are affirmatively indicating that you accept these Terms of Service, which shall thereby constitute a legally binding agreement between you and All Covered (“Agreement”).
1. Grant of License; Non-Transferable Membership . Subject to these Terms of Service, All Covered grants to you a limited, non-exclusive and nontransferable license to use the FileAssist products and software (collectively, the “Software”) made available to you by All Covered. All rights related to the Software not expressly granted to you hereunder are retained by All Covered. You shall use the Software only as specifically permitted by this license and in accordance with the requirements of applicable federal, state and local law. You shall not modify, enhance or otherwise alter the Software without All Covered’s express prior written consent and under All Covered’s direct supervision. You further agree not to alter, obscure or remove any copyright notices and other proprietary notices, regardless of form, contained in or affixed to the Software. You must have a valid, registered user account to access the Software. The Software may only be accessed and used by those authorized individuals who are registered with All Covered. You may use your password for as long as you like; however, this password is non-transferable and your account may not be shared with other individuals except as otherwise permitted in this Agreement. Upon termination of your membership subscription due to nonpayment, cancellation or suspension of service, this Agreement will automatically terminate and the license to use the Software under this Agreement shall be permanently revoked. YOU AGREE THAT YOUR ACCOUNT PASSWORD MUST BE KEPT PRIVATE AND MAY NOT BE USED BY ANY OTHER INDIVIDUAL OR AUTOMATED PROCESS TO ACCESS YOUR ACCOUNT UNLESS THEY ALSO HAVE AN ASSIGNED USER LICENSE OR “SUBACCOUNT” USER LICENSE. This includes access via Web, FTP, Secure FTP or WebDAV protocols.
2. Scope of Services. The FileAssist services provided by All Covered hereunder (the “Services”) include all online virtual data room, offline services and any related support services that All Covered makes available to you in accordance with the license. All Covered shall host your documents and files made available to All Covered (the “Materials”) in a secure site and in accordance with a customary service level. All Covered shall keep all Materials supplied by you confidential, secure and in accordance with the standards required under ISO 27002 (Security) and SSAE16 SOC3 and shall further ensure that all All Covered personnel having access to Materials are required to maintain the confidentiality and security of those Materials. In the event that you require any additional services not provided for herein, All Covered may provide such additional services upon mutually agreeable terms and conditions in a separate service agreement.
3. No Liability for Data Stored. All Covered assumes no liability whatsoever for the content of any of the data which is stored through your use of the Software or the Services. Individual users are solely responsible for the file content they upload and store. You warrant and represent that you own or otherwise control all of the intellectual property rights necessary for the data you store using the Software or Services.
4. Individual Account Security, Privacy, and Personal Use . You agree that you alone are responsible for the security and confidentiality of your passwords or other identifiers required to be used in order to access the site and All Covered is not responsible for such security or confidentiality. Furthermore, you are entirely responsible for any and all activities that occur under your account. You agree to notify All Covered immediately of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security. All Covered shall not be liable for any loss that you may incur as a result of someone else using your password or account, either with or without your knowledge.
