Intellectual Property Infringement

We respect the intellectual property rights of others and encourage you to do the same. Accordingly, we have a policy of removing Submissions that violate intellectual property rights of others, suspending access to this Website (or any portion thereof) to any Supportomate User who uses this Website in violation of someone’s intellectual property rights, and/or terminating in appropriate circumstances the account of any Supportomate User who uses the Website in violation of someone’s intellectual property rights.

Pursuant to Title 17 of the United States Code, Section 512, we have implemented procedures for receiving written notification of claimed copyright infringement and for processing such claims in accordance with such law. If you believe your copyright or other intellectual property right is being infringed by a Supportomate User, please provide written notice to us for notice of claims of infringement at barbara@supportomate.com.

We will notify you that we have removed or disabled access to copyright-protected material that you provided, if such removal is pursuant to a validly received Digital Millennium Copyright Act DMCA take-down notice. In response, you may provide our Agent with a written counter-notification that includes the following information:

  • Your physical or electronic signature;

  • Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled, and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled;

  • A statement from you under the penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled; and

  • Your name, physical address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of a court for the judicial district in which your physical address is located, or if your physical address is outside of the United States, for any judicial district in which we may be located, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of allegedly infringing material or an agent of such person.

We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to terminate the account or access of any Supportomate User or Invitee who is the subject of repeated DMCA or other infringement notifications.

General Terms

We think direct communication resolves most issues – if we feel that you are not complying with these Terms, we will likely tell you. We may even provide you with recommended necessary corrective action(s) if possible. However, certain violations of these Terms, as determined by us, may require immediate termination of your access to this Website without prior notice to you.

The Federal Arbitration Act, Georgia state law and applicable U.S. federal law, without regard to the choice or conflicts of law provisions, will govern these Terms to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. Except for disputes subject to arbitration as described above, any disputes relating to these Terms or this Website will be heard in the courts located in Fulton County, Georgia. Except as otherwise set forth in the dispute resolution provision, if any of these Terms are deemed inconsistent with applicable law, then such term(s) will be interpreted to reflect the intentions of the parties, and no other terms will be modified. By choosing not to enforce any of these Terms, we are not waiving our rights. These Terms, together with our Privacy Notice, End User License Agreement, FERPA and COPPA Privacy Policy and Notice, and the Data Processing Addendum (as applicable), contain the entire agreement between you and us and, therefore, supersede all prior or contemporaneous negotiations, discussions or agreements between Supportomate and you about the Website and our services. Any definitions found in the Privacy Notice, End User License Agreement, FERPA and COPPA Privacy Policy and Notice, and Data Processing Addendum are hereby adopted by reference in this Agreement. The rights of Supportomate under our Terms will survive the termination of our Terms. No additional terms, conditions, consent, waiver, alteration, or modification shall be binding unless in writing and signed by both parties. Acceptance of any order by Supportomate is expressly limited to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Any proposed additional or inconsistent terms or conditions, including those in or accompanying any Customer proposal, any Customer purchase order, or other agreement or any other Customer document issued in connection with the sale or delivery of Products or Services is deemed by Supportomate to be a material change and is objected to and rejected by Supportomate. Supportomate's acceptance of any orders will not constitute acceptance of any terms and conditions contained therein.

Neither You or Supportomate will be liable to the other for any delay or failure to perform any obligation under these Terms (except for a failure to pay fees) if the delay or failure is due to events which are beyond reasonable control, such as a strike, blockade, war, act of terrorism, riot, natural disaster, for failure, or diminishment of power or telecommunications or data networks or services.

Unless you have specifically notified Supportomate to the contrary in writing (including via email to barbara@supportomate.com), Supportomate may disclose your company as a customer of Supportomate (if you use Supportomate for business purposes and/or use a business email address as your Supportomate User email address) and may use your company’s name and logo on the Website and in Supportomate’s promotional content. Supportomate will request your prior written consent for any other uses.


Changes

We may amend our Terms at any time by publishing revised Terms on our Website and/or by sending an email to the address you gave us. These Terms are current as of the Effective Date set forth above. If any changes are made to these Terms, we’ll post them on this page, so please be sure to check back periodically. If you continue to use Supportomate after those changes are in effect, you agree to the revised Terms. Therefore, it is important for you to periodically review our Terms to make sure you still agree to them. If you object to any such modifications, your sole recourse will be to cease using this Website. Supportomate reserves the right to change any and all features of our Website, at any time, without notice.

Dispute Resolution

Except where arbitration is required by law or with respect to the enforcement of any arbitration decision or award, any action or proceeding relating to any dispute may only be instituted in court in Israel. Accordingly, we each mutually consent to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts for such matters. The award issued by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
