CustomerIQ acknowledges that any and all information, data, and other content, in any form or medium, that is collected, downloaded, or otherwise received, directly or indirectly, from you (or on your behalf) by or through CustomerIQ ("Your Content") is owned by you or your licensors. For an organizational account, CustomerIQ may assume, in its sole discretion, that all of Your Content belongs to that organization. However, CustomerIQ reserves the right to retain, take possession of, delete, or deny you access to Your Content if it believes, in its sole discretion, that some or all of Your Content, or your use of CustomerIQ, violates these Terms.
By using CustomerIQ, you (on behalf of yourself and your organization, if applicable, and your other licensors) grant, and represent and warrant that you have all rights necessary to grant, CustomerIQ an irrevocable, transferable, sublicensable (through multiple tiers), fully paid, royalty-free, and worldwide right and license to use, copy, store, modify, and display Your Content: (i) to provide, maintain, improve, and optimize use of CustomerIQ; (ii) to perform such other actions as authorized by you in connection with your use of CustomerIQ; and (iii) for any other purpose consistent with the Privacy Policy.
If you are an individual using CustomerIQ on behalf of an organization and are collaborating with other employees or other individuals who have access to Your Content under your CustomerIQ account, or if you share Your Content with other individuals within or outside of such organization, the content on your CustomerIQ account that you make available to such other individuals (as well as other information, such as the names and contact information of other individuals who have access to your workspace(s) or Your Content within CustomerIQ) will be visible, accessible, and, depending on their designated level of access, editable by such individuals.
You can remove Your Content from your CustomerIQ account by deleting it. However, in certain instances, some of Your Content may not be completely removed. CustomerIQ is not responsible or liable for the removal or deletion of any of Your Content, or any failure to remove or delete such content.
In connection with Your Content, you represent and warrant that: (i) you have all necessary rights, licenses, and consents to provide, receive, access, and/or use Your Content and any other content you provide, receive, access, and/or use through or in connection with CustomerIQ; and (ii) Your Content and our use thereof as contemplated by these Terms and our Service will not violate any law or infringe any rights of any third party, including any intellectual property rights and privacy rights.

You shall be solely responsible and indemnify CustomerIQ for Your Content.
During the applicable Subscription Term, if you comply with these Terms, we grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to use our Software. This license is solely for your use of CustomerIQ in accordance with these Terms.
You can cancel your CustomerIQ Account anytime through your Account Settings page. However, we will be sorry to see you go. We may stop providing CustomerIQ, change CustomerIQ, or limit usage of CustomerIQ. We may temporarily or permanently suspend or terminate your access to CustomerIQ without notice, liability, or cause, including if we believe, in our sole discretion, that you violated any provision of these Terms. You will continue to be bound by these Terms even after termination.
We may offer certain product features on a trial basis, which we refer to as a "Product Trial." You may participate in any Product Trial, but you must adhere to these Terms and any additional terms and conditions made available by us. During Product Trials, you acknowledge that the features made available to you ("Trial Features") may contain bugs, errors, or omissions. Trial Features are provided for testing purposes only, and are not subject to any warranty, liability, indemnity, or performance obligations. Additionally, we may discontinue or revoke access to Trial Features at any time, without liability to you. Discontinuing Trial Features may affect your ability to access Your Content.
You acknowledge and agree that all materials and content displayed or made available on CustomerIQ, all software, algorithms, code, technology, and intellectual property underlying and included in or with CustomerIQ, and all intellectual property rights therein and thereto throughout the world (collectively and individually, our "Intellectual Property"), are our (or our licensors' as applicable) sole and exclusive property. Except as explicitly provided herein, nothing in these Terms will be deemed to create a license in or under any intellectual property rights, and you agree not to access, sell, license, rent, modify, distribute, copy, reproduce, transmit, publicly display, publicly perform, publish, adapt, edit, or create derivative works from any of our Intellectual Property.
If you choose to submit any comments, feedback, or ideas about CustomerIQ, including how to improve our Service ("Feedback"), you agree that CustomerIQ will own any such Feedback. We are free to use the Feedback without any additional compensation to you and disclose the Feedback on a non-confidential basis or otherwise to anyone. You acknowledge that, by accepting your submission of Feedback, we do not waive any rights to use similar or related ideas previously known to us or developed by our employees or obtained from sources other than you.
We may offer Subscription Plans that permit you to use specific aspects of CustomerIQ, either free of charge or for a fee. We reserve the right to change or update Subscription Plans in our sole discretion, including the addition or modification of fees and charges for existing Subscription Plans, as well as offering new features or services that may require additional fees. Any changes to a Subscription Plan's pricing or payment terms will take effect during the next billing cycle after we have notified you. Subscription Plans may include usage allotments for designated CustomerIQ features, and exceeding those allotments may result in additional fees that will be charged automatically to your Payment Method.
If you sign up for a paid Subscription Plan, you agree to pay the specified fees for as long as your CustomerIQ account is active. Subscription Plans may be offered for a set subscription period, and by purchasing a Subscription Plan, you agree to the pricing and payment terms specified at checkout or as posted on our website. You must provide us with a valid and accepted Payment Method, and by initiating a purchase transaction, you authorize us to charge your Payment Method in United States dollars, along with any applicable taxes and recurring charges as described below. You are responsible for paying all applicable taxes and payment-related fees. Stripe is currently our third-party payment processor, and by using CustomerIQ, you agree to be bound by Stripe's Services Agreement. If we are unable to charge your Payment Method, you will remain responsible for any outstanding amounts. All payments for transactions are non-refundable and non-transferable, except as otherwise expressly provided in these Terms.
Unless you cancel your Subscription Plan, it will automatically renew for the same length as the original subscription term. If you do not want your Subscription Plan to renew, you must cancel it before the end of the Subscription Term. By agreeing to these Terms and purchasing a Subscription Plan, you acknowledge that your plan has recurring payment features, and you accept responsibility for all recurring payment obligations prior to cancellation.
If we cancel or terminate your Subscription Plan, except in the event of your breach or failure to pay fees when due, we will provide a prorated refund for the remaining unused portion of your Subscription Term. If you cancel or terminate your Subscription Plan, your right to use CustomerIQ will continue until the end of your then-current Subscription Term and then terminate without further charges. If you live in the European Union or Turkey and cancel your Subscription Plan within 14 days of purchase, you will be eligible for a refund of any payments made for the canceled Subscription Term, and your right to use CustomerIQ will terminate immediately. However, if you cancel or terminate your Subscription Plan for any other reason, you will not receive a refund of any portion of fees paid for the then-current Subscription Term at the time of cancellation.
Late payments will be subject to a service charge equal to 1.5% per month of the amount due, or the maximum amount allowed by law, whichever is less, plus the costs of collection.
Credits that may accrue to your CustomerIQ Account will expire one year following their accrual or upon the expiration or termination of your account, whichever comes first. Credits have no currency or exchange value, are non-transferable, and are non-refundable.
We may provide software that allows you to access CustomerIQ through a compatible mobile device ("Mobile Applications"). Your wireless provider may charge you for mobile data usage related to the Mobile Applications, and you are responsible for any such charges. We grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the Mobile Applications solely for your CustomerIQ account on one or more mobile devices owned or leased by you, in accordance with these Terms. You acknowledge that we may issue upgraded versions of the Mobile Applications from time to time and that we may automatically upgrade the version of the Mobile Applications that you use on your mobile device. You agree to these automatic upgrades and accept that these Terms apply to all upgrades. Any third-party code included in the Mobile Applications is subject to the applicable open source or third-party license agreement authorizing the use of that code. This license grant does not constitute a sale of the Mobile Applications or any copy thereof. We, or our third-party partners or suppliers, retain all right, title, and interest in the Mobile Applications (and any copy thereof). Any attempt by you to transfer any of the rights, duties, or obligations under this license grant, except as expressly provided for in these Terms, is void.
If you obtain Mobile Applications from a third-party app store, such as the Apple App Store, you acknowledge and agree that: (i) these Terms are between you and us only, not with the third party; (ii) your use of the Mobile Applications must comply with the then-current terms and conditions of the app store from which you obtained the Mobile Applications; (iii) the third party only provides the app store from which you obtained the Mobile Applications; (iv) we are solely responsible for our Mobile Applications, not the third party; (v) the third party has no obligation or liability to you regarding the Mobile Applications or these Terms; and (vi) the third party is a third-party beneficiary of these Terms with respect to the Mobile Applications.

Either party may disclose confidential, proprietary, or non-public information to the other party in the course of their business relationship. The receiving party must protect and maintain the confidentiality of such information, using at least the same level of care it would use for its own confidential information. Confidential information does not include information that is generally available to the public, already known to the receiving party, or independently developed by the receiving party without using the disclosing party's confidential information.
The receiving party may only use the disclosing party's confidential information for purposes related to the business relationship between the parties or as authorized by these Terms. The receiving party may not disclose the disclosing party's confidential information to any third party except as required to perform its obligations under these Terms or with the disclosing party's prior written consent.
If the receiving party is required by law or legal process to disclose any confidential information, it must provide prior notice to the disclosing party to allow the disclosing party the opportunity to seek a protective order or other legal remedy.
Both parties acknowledge that a breach of this confidentiality provision may cause irreparable harm to the other party. Therefore, each party agrees that the other party is entitled to seek injunctive relief against any actual or threatened breaches of this confidentiality provision, without the need to show actual damages or the inadequacy of other legal remedies.
You agree that: (i) we will be deemed solely domiciled in the State of North Carolina; and (ii) our Service will be deemed a passive one that does not give rise to personal jurisdiction over us, either specific or general, in jurisdictions other than North Carolina. These Terms will be governed by the internal substantive laws of the State of North Carolina, without respect to its conflict of laws principles. The parties acknowledge that these Terms evidence a transaction involving interstate commerce. Notwithstanding the preceding sentences with respect to the substantive law, the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16) (“FAA”) governs the interpretation and enforcement of the Arbitration Agreement in Section 12.2 and preempts all state laws to the fullest extent permitted by law. If the FAA is determined not to apply to any issue that arises from or relates to the Arbitration Agreement, then that issue shall be resolved under and governed by the law of your state of residence. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. You agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in Raleigh, North Carolina for any actions for which we retain the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of our copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property or proprietary rights, as set forth in the Arbitration Agreement below, including any provisional relief required to prevent irreparable harm. You agree that Raleigh, North Carolina is the proper and exclusive forum for any appeals of an arbitration award or for trial court proceedings in the event that the arbitration provision below is found to be unenforceable.
READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES THE PARTIES TO ARBITRATE THEIR DISPUTES AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US. This section 12.2 (the “Arbitration Agreement”) applies to and governs any dispute, controversy, or claim between you and us that arises out of or relates to, directly or indirectly: (a) these Terms, including the formation, existence, breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, validity, or enforceability thereof; (b) access to or use of our Service, including receipt of any advertising, marketing, or other communications from us; (c) any transactions through, by, or using our Service; or (d) any other aspect of your relationship or transactions with us, directly or indirectly, as a user or consumer (“Claim” or collectively, “Claims”). The Arbitration Agreement shall apply, without limitation, to all Claims that arose or were asserted before or after your consent to these Terms.
If you are a new user, you can reject and opt-out of this Arbitration Agreement within thirty (30) days of accepting these Terms by emailing us at info@getcustomeriq.com with your first and last name and stating your intent to opt-out of the Arbitration Agreement. Opting out of this Arbitration Agreement does not affect the binding nature of any other part of these Terms, including the provisions regarding controlling law or in which courts any disputes must be brought.
For any Claim, you agree to first contact us at info@getcustomeriq.com and attempt to resolve the dispute with us informally. In the unlikely event that we have not been able to resolve a Claim after sixty (60) days, we each agree to resolve any Claim through binding arbitration by JAMS, under the Optional Expedited Arbitration Procedures then in effect for JAMS (the “Rules”), except as provided herein. JAMS may be contacted at www.jamsadr.com, where the Rules are available. In the event of any conflict between the Rules and this Arbitration Agreement, the Arbitration Agreement shall control. The arbitration will be conducted in the U.S. county where you live or Raleigh, North Carolina, unless you and we agree otherwise. If you are using CustomerIQ for commercial purposes, each party will be responsible for paying any JAMS filing, administrative and arbitrator fees in accordance with JAMS rules, and the award rendered by the arbitrator will include costs of arbitration, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses. If you are an individual using CustomerIQ for non-commercial purposes: (i) JAMS may require you to pay a fee for the initiation of your case, unless you apply for and successfully obtain a fee waiver from JAMS; (ii) the award rendered by the arbitrator may include your costs of arbitration, your reasonable attorney’s fees, and your reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses; and (iii) you may sue in a small claims court of competent jurisdiction without first engaging in arbitration, but this does not absolve you of your commitment to engage in the informal dispute resolution process. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. You and we agree that the arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any disputes relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Arbitration Agreement, including any claim that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitrator shall also be responsible for determining all threshold arbitrability issues, including issues relating to whether these Terms, or any provision of these Terms, is unconscionable or illusory or any defense to arbitration, including waiver, delay, laches, unconscionability, or estoppel.
NOTHING IN THIS SECTION WILL BE DEEMED AS PREVENTING US FROM SEEKING INJUNCTIVE OR OTHER EQUITABLE RELIEF FROM THE COURTS AS NECESSARY TO PREVENT THE ACTUAL OR THREATENED INFRINGEMENT, MISAPPROPRIATION, OR VIOLATION OF OUR DATA SECURITY, INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OR OTHER PROPRIETARY RIGHTS; OR PREVENTING YOU FROM ASSERTING CLAIMS IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT, IF YOUR CLAIMS QUALIFY AND SO LONG AS THE MATTER REMAINS IN SUCH COURT AND ADVANCES ON ONLY AN INDIVIDUAL (NON-CLASS, NON-COLLECTIVE, AND NON-REPRESENTATIVE) BASIS.
IF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT IS FOUND TO BE VOID, UNENFORCEABLE, OR UNLAWFUL, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, THE VOID, UNENFORCEABLE, OR UNLAWFUL PROVISION, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, SHALL BE SEVERED. SEVERANCE OF THE VOID, UNENFORCEABLE, OR UNLAWFUL PROVISION, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, SHALL HAVE NO IMPACT ON THE REMAINING PROVISIONS OF THE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, WHICH SHALL REMAIN IN FORCE, OR THE PARTIES’ ABILITY TO COMPEL ARBITRATION OF ANY REMAINING CLAIMS ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS PURSUANT TO THE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, IF THE CLASS ACTION/JURY TRIAL WAIVER IS FOUND TO BE VOID, UNENFORCEABLE, OR UNLAWFUL, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, BECAUSE IT WOULD PREVENT YOU FROM SEEKING PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF, THEN ANY DISPUTE REGARDING THE ENTITLEMENT TO SUCH RELIEF (AND ONLY THAT RELIEF) MUST BE SEVERED FROM ARBITRATION AND MAY BE LITIGATED IN A CIVIL COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION. ALL OTHER CLAIMS FOR RELIEF SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION UNDER THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT SHALL BE ARBITRATED UNDER ITS TERMS, AND THE PARTIES AGREE THAT LITIGATION OF ANY DISPUTE REGARDING THE ENTITLEMENT TO PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF SHALL BE STAYED PENDING THE OUTCOME OF ANY INDIVIDUAL CLAIMS IN ARBITRATION.
WITH RESPECT TO ALL PERSONS AND ENTITIES, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THEY HAVE OBTAINED OR USED OUR SERVICE FOR PERSONAL, COMMERCIAL OR OTHER PURPOSES, ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THIS WAIVER APPLIES TO CLASS ARBITRATION, AND, UNLESS WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF ONLY TO AN INDIVIDUAL CLAIMANT AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF ON INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S). ANY RELIEF AWARDED MAY NOT AFFECT OTHER USERS. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND WE ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND.
