Changes to Services and Master Terms
1. We regularly update and improve the Services, and may at times remove features in order to improve your ability to use the Services.

2. If you don’t agree with the new Master Terms, you are free to reject them; unfortunately, that means you will no longer be able to use the Services. If you use the Services in any way after a change to the Master Terms is effective, that means you agree to all of the changes.

We have physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to help safeguard, prevent unauthorized access, maintain data security, and correctly use your information. However, neither people nor security systems are foolproof, including encryption systems. In addition, people can commit intentional crimes, make mistakes, or fail to follow policies.

You should avoid transmitting personal or sensitive information, such as social security numbers, bank or credit card information.

Data Storage
1.

Termination of Services
1. You’re free to terminate your Account at any time by shutting down your Account yourself or contacting us at [email protected]. Terminating your Account does not end your payment obligations. Your payment obligations are governed by the terms of your plan. If you are a standard customer on a month-to-month contract, your payment obligations end at the end of your payment cycle for the month in which you canceled. If you are on a separate plan (i.e,. an Enterprise plan), your payment obligations are as set forth in your contract, according to your contract term length. Please refer to our Privacy Policy, as well as any applicable Additional Terms, to understand how we treat information you provide to us after you have stopped using our Services. You must download all of your Data (but not any Third-Party Appended Data (if you have signed up for this Service)) prior to the date upon which your termination is effective. Once your Account is terminated, for security reasons, your Account access will be terminated and you will not have access to download your data.
2. Unless you have a separate agreement with us specifying otherwise, we are also free to terminate (or suspend access to) your use of the Services or your Account, for any reason in our discretion, including your breach of these Master Terms. We have the sole right to decide whether you are in violation of any of the restrictions set forth in these Master Terms.
3. Provisions that, by their nature, should survive termination of these Master Terms shall survive termination. By way of example, all of the following will survive termination: any obligation you have to pay us or indemnify us, any limitations on our liability, any warranty disclaimers, any terms regarding ownership or intellectual property rights, and terms regarding disputes between us.
4. We may modify or terminate the Service or any part thereof in any country or jurisdiction where there is any current or future government requirement or obligation that (1) subjects us to a regulation or requirement not generally applicable to our operations there or to a business based in that country, (2) presents a hardship for us to continue operating the Service or any part thereof in that country or jurisdiction without modification, and/or (3) causes us to believe that these terms or the Service or any part thereof may conflict with any such requirement or obligation. If we terminate the service for regulatory reasons, we will provide you with a credit for any amount paid in advance for the period after the termination.
Our Right to Close your Account; Deletion of Data
1. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to close your Account, without prior notice, for any one or all of the following: (i) if you or any of your Account contacts, whether intentional or unintentional, breaches any section of these Master Terms, any supplemental rules and guidelines, any of the terms and conditions of the respective service providers, or any of our rights; (ii) if we receive notice that you or your company will be or is subject to insolvency proceedings; (iii) upon our receipt of any third-party chargeback associated with any Payment Method tendered as payment on your Account; (iv) if we do not receive a written response from you within 48 hours of any notice sent to [email protected]; (v) if, in our judgment, your use of the Service has the potential to pose any harm to us, any of our affiliates, partners, service providers or customers; (vi) if your Account becomes past due and is not paid within twenty days of becoming past due; (vii) if a hacked script or otherwise compromised website is discovered on our systems at the Service in use by you; (viii) if an unusual spike in resource usage is detected by our systems resulting in an Account far outstripping the allotted resources; (ix) if you fail to cure any suspension of your Account or any individual Service, to our satisfaction, and within the time frame we specify; or (x) if, in our judgment, we have received too many complaints about your Content. In the event of any such closure of your Account, you will not be eligible for a refund of any fees and you may be prohibited from reopening your Account, opening a new Account or accessing any existing Account. You agree that we shall not be liable, in any way, for any closure pursuant to this section of these Master Terms.
2. Effects of Closure and Suspension
  1. Upon any closure of your Account: (i) these Master Terms and all rights granted under these Master Terms shall cease immediately (except those expressly surviving or which by their nature, would survive); (ii) all access to the Service and your Account will cease immediately; (iii) you will be billed for, and we may automatically attempt to collect from your Payment Method, any outstanding amount owed; and (iv) all Content is subject to deletion from our servers and backup systems in our sole discretion and we may not have or keep backup of the Content. We recommend that you run frequent and regular backups. We also recommend that you ensure you have retrieved all Content and made all necessary backups before submitting any Request to Close your Account or any of the Service. You agree to hold us and our Affiliates harmless from and against any and all claims, losses or damages arising from any closure of your Account. You are not permitted to and you agree not to access or attempt to access your Account or any of the Services formerly associated with your Account following any closure. “Affiliate” means an entity that owns or controls, is owned or controlled by or is or under common control or ownership with us, where control is defined as the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of an entity, whether through ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise.
  2. Upon any suspension of your Account, all Service associated with your Account will be suspended or otherwise made inaccessible until and unless all issues are addressed and resolved by you, to our satisfaction, and within the time frame we specify. During any suspension of your Account or any individual Service, you will not be permitted to: (i) add, upgrade, downgrade or modify any of the Service; (ii) request an emergency restoration; (iii) transfer any Service, including but not limited to domain name registrations; (iv) access any of the websites, email accounts or Content associated with the suspended Service or Account. You agree to hold us harmless from and against any and all claims, losses or damages arising from any suspension of your Account or the individual Service. Removing an Account from suspension is in our sole discretion. If we elect to do so, prior to your Account being reactivated you must pay all fees due and any interest due, and also including fees during the period of suspension (we still incur costs based on the storage and maintenance of your Data and Account, as well as responsibility for its security).

Account Owner/Admin/Ownership Transfers

Requests to transfer ownership of a Nation fall under three classes: (i) Type A transfers, which are those Account Owner/Admin/Ownership transfers initiated by the Account Owner/Admin via the Control Panel; (ii) Type B transfers, which are those Account Owner/Admin/Ownership transfer requests initiated by someone other than the Account Owner/Admin; or (iii) Type C transfers, which are those Account Owner/Admin/Ownership transfer requests initiated by the beneficiary, lawful heir, Power of Attorney, or Executor of a deceased Account Owner/Admin's estate. NationBuilder may, in its sole discretion, deny any request to transfer ownership of a Nation.

(i) Type A Transfers:

In the case of Type A Account Owner/Admin/Ownership transfer requests, the owner name fields are changed by the Account Owner/Admin via the Control Panel. Once changed, all rights and obligations granted to the former Account Owner/Admin under this Agreement will immediately transfer to the new Account Owner/Admin. Transfer of ownership only affects ownership of the Nation.

(ii) Type B Transfers:

In the case of Type B Account Owner/Admin/Ownership transfer requests, the person who is not the listed Account Owner/Admin in our records, but believes he/she/it should be sends us a request (1) identifying the Account Owner/Admin in our records, (2) setting forth why the Account Owner/Admin/Ownership should be transferred and (3) any evidence supporting the transfer. We may make a good-faith attempt to reach the current Account Owner/Admin via telephone, or email to allow him/her the opportunity to approve or deny the request. If the Account Owner/Admin expressly objects to the transfer request, we will be unable to assist the other party with accessing the Nation without a valid, applicable court order. On the other hand, if we are unable to reach the current Account Owner/Admin, for whatever reason, or if we do not receive a timely response to any of our communications, we may proceed with the transfer of ownership as requested without further notice.

(iii) Type C Transfers:

In the case of Type C Account Owner/Adminship transfer requests, the person who is not the listed Account Owner/Admin in our records, but believes he/she/it should be sends us a request (1) identifying the Account Owner/Admin in our records, (2) setting forth why the Account Owner/Admin/Ownership should be transferred, including proof of the Account Owner/Admin’s death, and (3) any evidence supporting the transfer, including documentation that the requestor is beneficiary, lawful heir, Power of Attorney, or Executor. We may, in our sole discretion, proceed with the transfer of ownership as requested.

(iv) Effects of Type B and C Transfers:

Once ownership of an account has been processed: (i) All rights and obligations granted to the former Account Owner/Admin under this Agreement will immediately cease and be transferred to the new Account Owner/Admin; (ii) NationBuilder will remove the former Account Owner/Admin's registration data and replace it with the registration data provided by the new Account Owner/Admin; and (iii) NationBuilder may also remove the former Account Owner/Admin's Payment Method. NationBuilder will not modify any other facet of the Nation or the Service; the new Account Owner/Admin is solely responsible for doing so. Before any approved transfer of ownership can be completed, NationBuilder must receive full payment of any balance owing on the Nation as of the approval date. An approved transfer of ownership only affects ownership and control of the Nation.
Currency

Certain aspects of the Services may allow you to obtain reputational or status indicators, and/or fictional property representing virtual achievements, for instance, political capital (“Currency”). We grant you a limited license to this virtual Currency. This Currency has no cash value and it is not redeemable for any value from us. We have the right to change or eliminate Currency at any time without liability. For more information on Currency, see our website page at http://nationbuilder.com/currency_in_profiles_and_filters.

Government Entity Amendment
1. This Section 26 applies only to U.S. Government agency users of the Services and constitutes an amendment to these Master Terms (“Amendment”). Terms not defined in this Amendment are as defined in the Master Terms. If there is any conflict between this Amendment and the Master Terms, or between this Amendment and other terms, rules or policies on the Company Website or related to its Services, this Amendment shall prevail. Any language in the Master Terms indicating it may not be modified or that it alone is the entire agreement between the Parties is waived. Any further amendment must be agreed to in writing by both Parties.
2. You, as a U.S. Government entity (“Agency”), are required when entering into agreements with other parties to follow applicable federal laws and regulations, including those related to ethics; privacy and security; accessibility; federal records; limitations on indemnification; fiscal law constraints; advertising and endorsements; freedom of information; and governing law and dispute resolution forum. 3dna Corp. (the “Company”) and Agency (together, the “Parties”) agree to modify the Company’s Master Terms to accommodate Agency’s legal status, its public (in contrast to private) mission, and other special circumstances. Accordingly, the Master Terms are hereby modified by this Amendment as they pertain to Agency’s use of the Services.
3. Government Entity. “You” within the Master Terms shall mean the Agency itself and shall not apply to, nor bind (i) the individual(s) who utilize the Services on Agency’s behalf, or (ii) any individual users who happen to be employed by, or otherwise associated with, the Agency. Company will look solely to Agency to enforce any violation or breach of the Master Terms by such individuals, subject to federal law.
4. Public Purpose. Agency shall use the Services solely in furtherance of Agency’s public purpose. Any requirement(s) set forth within the Master Terms that use of the Services be for private, personal and/or non-commercial purposes is hereby waived.
5. Agency Content Serving the Public. Company will allow Agency’s distribution or other publication via Services of material that may contain or constitute promotions, advertisements or solicitations for goods or services, so long as the material relates to the Agency’s mission.
6. Advertisements. Company does not currently display advertisements via the Services. If, at a later date, Company decides to include any commercial advertisements or solicitations in the publicly available portion of the Services or websites associated and which are a part thereof displaying content uploaded by or under the control of the Agency, the Agency shall have the right to immediately terminate this Agreement and its use of the Services. This exclusion shall not extend to house ads, which Company may place in a non-intrusive manner.
7. Indemnification, Liability, Statute of Limitations. Any provisions in the Master Terms related to indemnification and filing deadlines are hereby waived, and shall not apply except to the extent expressly authorized by law.

Liability of Company for any breach of the Master Terms or this Amendment or any claim arising from the Master Terms or this Amendment, shall be determined by applicable U.S. Federal law.
8. Governing Law. Any arbitration, mediation or similar dispute resolution provision in the Master Terms is hereby deleted. The Master Terms and this Amendment shall be governed by and interpreted and enforced in accordance with the laws of the United States of America without reference to conflict of laws. To the extent permitted by federal law, the laws of the State of California will apply in the absence of federal law, excluding California’s choice of law rules.
9. Changes to Master Terms. If Company exercises its right to change the Master Terms, Company shall, whenever practicable, provide notice to subscribers with .gov email addresses alerting them to the change. Company acknowledges that changes to the Master Terms may be the basis for Agency’s termination of this agreement and its use of the Services.
10. Access and Use. Company acknowledges that the Agency’s use of the Services may energize significant citizen engagement and otherwise become important to the Agency’s mission. Language in the Master Terms allowing Company to terminate service or close the Agency’s Account at any time, for any reason, is modified to reflect the Parties’ agreement that Company may unilaterally terminate service and/or terminate Agency’s Account only for breach of Agency’s obligations under the Master Terms or Agency’s material failure to comply with the instructions and guidelines posted on the Company’s website or as part of the Services, or if Company ceases to operate its website or Services generally. Company will provide Agency with a reasonable opportunity to cure any breach or failure on Agency’s part.
11. Ownership of Names. Any provision in the Master Terms related to Company’s ownership of and right to change your selected user name(s), user ID(s), domain name(s), nation name(s), and group name(s), are modified to reasonably accommodate Agency’s proprietary, practical, and/or operational interest in its own publicly-recognized name and the names of Agency programs.
12. Modifications of Agency Content. Any right Company reserves in the Master Terms to modify or adapt Agency content is limited to technical actions necessary to index, format and display that content. The right to modify or adapt does not include the right to substantively edit or otherwise alter the meaning of the content. In the event Agency discovers that Agency content has been modified in a manner that alters the meaning of such content, Agency may contact Company and the Parties shall work together in good faith to resolve the matter. In addition, the provision in the Master Terms allowing the company to remove any comment at any time in its sole discretion shall not be applied to Agency Accounts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Amendment shall result in an expansion of Agency’s rights as a United States Government entity under the Copyright Act of 1976 (17 U.S.C. §101 et seq.), specifically including Section 105 of such Act.
13. Limitation of Liability. The Parties agree that nothing in the limitation of liability provisions in the Master Terms in any way grants Company a waiver from, release of, or limitation of liability pertaining to, any past, current or future violation of federal law.

Company agrees that Your seals, trademarks, logos, service marks, trade names, and the fact that You have a presence on the Company’s website and use its Services, shall not be used by Company in such a manner as to state or imply that Company’s products or services are endorsed, sponsored or recommended by You or by any other element of the Federal Government, or are considered by You or the Federal Government to be superior to any other products or services. Except for pages whose design and content is under the control of the Agency, or for links to or promotion of such pages, Company agrees not to display any Agency or government seals, trademarks, logos, service marks, and trade names on the Company’s homepage or elsewhere on the Company’s website unless permission to do has been granted by the Agency or by other relevant federal government authority. Company may list the Agency’s name in a publicly available customer list on its homepage or elsewhere so long as the name is not displayed in a more prominent fashion than that of any other third-party name.
16. Paid Services and Agency Obligation. The Parties agree this Amendment applies to Agency’s usage of both free and paid Services that Company may provide. The Parties understand that fee-based products and services are categorically different than free products and services, and are subject to federal procurement rules and processes. Before an Agency decides to enter into a premium or enterprise subscription, or any other fee-based service that this Company or alternative providers may offer now or in the future, Agency agrees to determine if it has a need for those additional services for a fee, to consider the subscription’s value in comparison with comparable services available elsewhere, to determine that Agency funds are available for payment, to properly use the Government Purchase Card if that Card is used as the payment method, to review any then-applicable Master Terms for conformance to federal procurement law, and in all other respects to follow applicable federal acquisition laws, regulations, and agency guidelines when initiating that separate action.
17. Assignment. Neither Party may assign its obligations under the Master Terms as modified by this Amendment to any third party without prior written consent of the other; provided however, Company or its subsidiaries may assign the Master Terms as modified by this Amendment to a subsidiary or parent without written consent from the Agency provided that the successor assumes Company’s obligations under the Master Terms as modified by this Amendment.

21. Additional Items for Discussion and Possible Inclusion in this Amendment. Company understands current federal law, regulation and policy may affect Agency’s use of the Company’s products and Services in ways not addressed in the list of clauses above. Among the topics Agency may need to discuss with Company, and which may lead to a mutual agreement to insert additional clauses in this Amendment, are Privacy and Accessibility.
