Welcome to somisapp.com. These Terms of Use (“Agreement”) is a binding legal agreement between you and SOMIS, regarding your use of the SOMIS proprietary online platform for field service business management (the “Service ”) as well as any products or services, including professional services, provided to you by SOMIS. Please read this Agreement carefully. By accessing or using the Service, you accept this Agreement and agree to use the Service in compliance with this Agreement. The terms “Subscriber,” “you,” “your,” “yours,” and “authorized user” refer to you, the account administrator, any individual user that is authorized by an account administrator, or an entity using the Service. If you are accepting this Agreement on behalf of an entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to do so. The terms “SOMIS,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to SOMIS, Inc. and our affiliates, as applicable. We may periodically make changes to this Agreement, and you may view the most current version at https://www.somisapp.com/legal/terms-of-use. 

We may make changes to this Agreement from time to time, and we will give you not less than thirty (30) days advance notice of any material changes and an opportunity to opt-out by sending an email to support@somisapp.com. If you continue to use the Service following such thirty (30) days notice, you will have agreed to such changes and will be bound by them. If you opt-out of such changes, our legal agreement will continue to be bound by the last version of this Agreement that you accepted, subject to our mutual rights to discontinue our contractual relationship.

Except for certain kinds of disputes described in Section 19, you agree that disputes arising under this Agreement will be resolved by binding, individual arbitration, and BY ACCEPTING THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND SOMIS ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. YOU AGREE TO GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT to assert or defend your rights under this contract (except for matters that may be taken to small claims court), and your rights will be determined by a NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR and NOT a judge or jury. (See Section 19).


1. Account Registration

(a) Accounts. You must register for and maintain an account with us to use the Service. When registering, you must provide accurate and complete information and promptly update this information. If you provide any information that is inaccurate or incomplete, or we have reason to believe that the information is inaccurate or incomplete, we may suspend or terminate your account and your use of the Service. Only authorized users may use your account to use the Service and conduct other activities with us. You are responsible for all activities that occur through your account. To protect your account from unauthorized use, keep your user identification and password secure and those of your authorized users. Please notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security. If there is unauthorized use by anyone who obtained access to the Service directly or indirectly through you, you will take all steps reasonably necessary to terminate the unauthorized use. You will cooperate and assist with any actions taken by SOMIS to prevent or terminate unauthorized use of the Service. 

(b) Eligibility. You must be at least the age of majority in the jurisdiction in which you live (which in most jurisdictions is either 18 or 19 years of age)to use the Service. By agreeing to this Agreement, you represent and warrant to us that: (a) you are at least the age of majority in the jurisdiction in which you live; (b) you have not previously been suspended or removed from the Service; and (c) your registration and your use of the Service is in compliance with any and all applicable laws and regulations.

 (c) Corporate Entities. If you are an entity, organization, or company (“Corporate Entity”), the individual accepting this Agreement on your behalf represents and warrants that they have authority to bind the Corporate Entity to this Agreement and the Corporate Entity agrees to be bound by this Agreement. You may allow Standard Users working for your Affiliates to use the Service under your subscription to the Service, as long as the total number of Standard Users between you and all of your Affiliates does not exceed the number of Standard Users that you are paying for under your subscription and as long as used in the operation of a single business. If you allow your Standard Users working for your Affiliates to use your account, you agree that: (a) you will at all times be liable and responsible for all acts and omissions of your Affiliates that use the Service (and any users using the Service on behalf of the Affiliate) as though those acts and omissions were committed by you; and (b) you agree (and you agree on behalf of your Affiliates) that your Affiliates and their end users may have access to all data and information that you can access through your account and SOMIS is not responsible for enforcing any data access restrictions between you and your Affiliates. Failure to do so will constitute a breach of your obligations pursuant to this Agreement. “Affiliate” means any entity that, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, you control, by way of majority voting stock ownership or the ability to otherwise direct or cause the direction of the management and policies. If you registered for the Service under a name other than the legal name of a business, we may from time to time require you to verify that all licenses purchased by you are used only by you and your Affiliates and in the operation of a single business.  If you are using multiple Standard Users accounts in connection with the operation of more than one business, you must disclose this fact to us at time of registration and renewal for the Service, as separate businesses require separate agreements with us. Failure to do so will constitute a breach of your obligations pursuant to this Agreement.


2. License

(a) License Grant. Subject to your complete and ongoing compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, SOMIS grants to you a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable right during the term of this Agreement to: (a) install and use one object code copy of any mobile application associated with the Service obtained from a legitimate marketplace (whether installed by you or pre-installed on your mobile device by the device manufacturer) on a mobile device that you own or control; and (b) access and use the Service solely in connection with the internal business operations of a single business, in each case solely for use by a number of Standard Users that does not exceed the number of paid subscriptions in your account, with no substitution of such users except as expressly permitted. By way of example only, if you have 10 employees in your company, and if you have only paid for 3 Standard User licenses, you are granted a limited non-exclusive license to have up to 3 individuals only access the Service as Standard Users, without substitution. Use of the Service by any number of individuals above the number of Standard User licenses you have purchased as part of your subscription is a violation of your Agreement. Any number of individuals using the Service in excess of the number of Standard User licenses you have subscribed to will be subject to immediate additional subscription purchases to the payment method on file, pro rated for any partial period.  Further, if SOMIS provides you with any API or software outside the Service (“Ancillary Software”), SOMIS hereby grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use that Ancillary Software solely in connection with your use of the Service.

 

(b) Standard User. As used in this Agreement, a "Standard User" means a natural person affiliated or associated with your business or under the direction of your business who: (i) is assigned sole or primary responsibility for performing a customer job by her/himself, (ii) who functions in a leadership role for an install crew or (iii) to whom or to whose activities revenue can otherwise be attributed.  Any user that is designated as a Standard User cannot be designated otherwise: (A) before the end of the subscription period in which he or she was so designated and (B) without the approval of SOMIS. You may not, and you must ensure that your Standard Users do not, share accounts with each other or any other individuals. You are responsible and liable for ensuring that your Standard Users (or anyone else using your accounts or the accounts of your Standard Users) comply with the terms of this Agreement. Deactivation of an individual as a Standard User will result in such user being unassigned from all jobs and removed from reporting functionality.   Monthly billing will be based upon the number of Standard Users at the beginning of the period, plus prorated billing for any added Standard Users and without reduction for users removed during the period.  For the avoidance of doubt, the number of Standard User subscriptions that you must maintain at any given time will be subject to any minimums specified in your agreements with us. 

(c) Early Access. If you obtain a subscription to a new feature or add-on to the Service designated by us as “Preview”, “Beta”, “Early Access” or “Evaluation Services” (“Early Access Service”), notwithstanding any other terms to the contrary, you may use such Early Access Service only for your internal demonstration, test, or evaluation purposes. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY TERMS TO THE CONTRARY IN THE AGREEMENT AND TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, CONDITIONS, GUARANTEES AND OTHER KINDS OF PROMISES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, FOR EARLY ACCESS SERVICE AND THEY ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” BASIS.

4. Fees and Payment

(a) General Payment Terms. Certain features of the Service may require you to pay fees, including all applicable taxes. Before you pay any fees, you will have an opportunity to review and accept the fees that you will be charged. Unless otherwise agreed, all fees are in U.S. Dollars and are non-refundable. SOMIS reserves the right to change the required method of payment at any time, upon notice to you. You are responsible for updating your account information should the required payment method change. If you agreed to purchase a minimum number of Standard User licenses as part of registering for the Services (the “Minimum License Level”), you must pay for at least that number of licenses during the applicable term.  Additional licenses may be purchased at the same pricing during the term, with fees prorated for partial months, and you may make adjustments in the actual number of licenses from time to time, provided that you must always purchase a number of licenses equal to or greater than the Minimum License Level.  Monthly billing will be based upon the number of users at the beginning of the period, plus prorated billing for any added users and without reduction for users removed during the period. All fees paid hereunder are non-refundable and non-recoupable. You agree that your purchases under this Agreement are neither contingent on the delivery of any future functionality or features of the Service nor dependent on any oral or written public comments made by us regarding future functionality or features.

(b) Price. SOMIS reserves the right to determine pricing for the Service. SOMIS will make reasonable efforts to keep pricing information published on the website up to date. We encourage you to check our website periodically for current pricing information. SOMIS may change the fees for any feature of the Service, including additional fees or charges, if SOMIS gives you advance notice of changes before they apply. SOMIS, at its sole discretion, may make promotional offers with different features and different pricing to any of SOMIS’s customers. These promotional offers, unless made to you, will not apply to your offer or this Agreement.

(c) Subscription Service. The Service includes automatically recurring payments for periodic charges (“Subscription Service”). If you activate a Subscription Service, you authorize SOMIS to periodically charge, on a going-forward basis and until cancellation of either the recurring payments or your account, all accrued sums on or before the payment due date for the accrued sums.

Your account will be charged automatically on the Subscription Billing Date all applicable fees and taxes for the next subscription period. The subscription will continue unless and until you cancel your subscription or we terminate it.

SOMIS, Inc. Attn: Legal 801 N. Brand Blvd., Suite 700 Glendale, CA 91203

19.   Dispute Resolution

(a) Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between you and SOMIS in the most expedient and cost effective manner, and except as described in Sections 19(b), (c) and (g), you and SOMIS agree that every dispute arising in connection with this Agreement will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of this Agreement, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of this Agreement. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND SOMIS ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

(b) Exceptions. Despite the provisions of Section 19(a), nothing in this Agreement will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law in aid of arbitration; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

(c) Opt-Out. If you do not wish to resolve disputes by binding arbitration, you may opt out of the provisions of this Section 19 within 30 days after the date that you agree to this Agreement by sending a letter to SOMIS, Inc., 801 N. Brand Blvd., Suite 700, Glendale, CA 91203 that specifies: your full legal name, the email address associated with your account on the Service, and a statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration (“Opt-Out Notice”). Once SOMIS receives your Opt-Out Notice, this Section 19 will be void and any action arising out of this Agreement will be resolved as set forth in Section 20. The remaining provisions of this Agreement will not be affected by your Opt-Out Notice. 

(d) Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and SOMIS will be settled under the Federal Arbitration Act and administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively, “AAA Rules”) as modified by this Agreement. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting SOMIS. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement. 

(e) Notice of Arbitration; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified mail or by Federal Express (signature required) or, only if that other party has not provided a current physical address, then by electronic mail (“Notice of Arbitration”). SOMIS’s address for Notice is: SOMIS, Inc., 801 N. Brand Blvd., Suite 700 Glendale, CA 91203. The Notice of Arbitration must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice of Arbitration is received, you or SOMIS may commence an arbitration proceeding. All arbitration proceedings between the parties will be confidential unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or SOMIS must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If the arbitrator awards you an amount higher than the last written settlement amount offered by SOMIS in settlement of the dispute prior to the award, SOMIS will pay to you the higher of: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator; or (ii) $10,000.

(f) Fees. If you commence arbitration in accordance with this Agreement, SOMIS will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than $10,000, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in Los Angeles County, California, but if the claim is for $10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse SOMIS for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.

(g) No Class Actions. YOU AND SOMIS AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and SOMIS agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

(h) Modifications to this Arbitration Provision. If SOMIS makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to SOMIS’s address for Notice of Arbitration, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to SOMIS’s address for Notice of Arbitration, in which case your account with SOMIS will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected will survive. 

(i) Enforceability. If Section 19(g) or the entirety of this Section 19 is prohibited by applicable law or found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, or if SOMIS receives an Opt-Out Notice from you, then the entirety of this Section 19 will be null and void and, in that case, the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 20 will govern any action arising out of or related to this Agreement.

20.  Governing Law

21. Waiver

The waiver by either party of any breach of any provision of this Agreement does not waive any other breach. The failure of any party to insist on strict performance of any covenant or obligation in accordance with this Agreement will not be a waiver of such party’s right to demand strict compliance in the future, nor will the same be construed as a novation of this Agreement.

22. Severability
