(c) Accessibility. User agrees that from time to time the Service may be inaccessible or inoperable for any reason (including, without limitation, equipment malfunctions, periodic maintenance procedures or repairs that JTECH may undertake from time to time or causes beyond the control of JTECH or which are not reasonably foreseeable by JTECH). JTECH shall have no liability or responsibility to User if the Service is inaccessible or inoperable for any reason.

(d) Password; Equipment. User shall be solely responsible for any and all acts or omissions that occur under User's account or password. User shall be solely responsible for providing, maintaining and ensuring compatibility with the Service and all hardware, software, electrical and other physical requirements for User's use of the Service (including, without limitation, telecommunications and Internet access connections and links, web browsers or other equipment, programs and services required to access and use the Service). User is responsible for maintaining the security and confidentiality of all passwords associated with User's account and for all activities that occur under User's account. If User becomes aware of any unauthorized or illegal use of any such password or account, then User shall immediately notify JTECH.

2. Right To Use the Service

(a) Use of Service. JTECH grants to User a non-exclusive, non-transferrable and non-sublicenseable right to access and use the Service solely for User's internal business purposes. User may use the Service only while User is an account holder who subscribes to the Service or is using the Service with the express permission of a paying account holder who subscribes to the Service. Unless otherwise specified by JTECH or by another express agreement with JTECH to the contrary, User's license and right to access or use the Service terminates on the earliest of: (1) the date which is the last day of the billing cycle for which the last Service prepayment for the account has been received by JTECH; (2) the date on which any charge or fee, or other balance due under the account is past due and JTECH determines, in its discretion, to terminate the account or suspend the Service; (3) any other date upon which JTECH has the right to terminate the account or suspend the Service as provided in this Agreement or any other applicable agreement or policy; or (4) the date on which User terminates this Agreement.

(b) Authorization. User represents, to the extent User uses any feature of the Service and User is not an account holder, that User has the express permission of an account holder to use that account holder's Service account. Conversely, if User is creating an account on behalf of another person who will become an account holder thereby, then User (1) hereby represents, warrants, and covenants that User has the express authority to create such account and bind such account holder to this Agreement and the policies and requirements pertaining to the Service and (2) hereby indemnifies JTECH from any loss, damage, claim or expense (including reasonable attorney's fees and expenses) arising out of or related to User's failure to actually acquire such authority or such new account holder's dispute or denial of any such authority. JTECH reserves the right to discontinue allowing persons who are not (or who do not become thereby) account holders to create, use or access accounts or the Service, whether on an account-by-account basis or otherwise, in JTECH's sole discretion. JTECH may establish other reasonable account or Service usage limits in its discretion. JTECH further reserves the right to refuse Service to any person or organization for any reason, in JTECH's sole discretion.

(c) Trial Offers. JTECH may offer free trials to allow Users to evaluate the Service prior to committing to a subscription; therefore, Service subscription purchases are non-refundable. Service plan billing of $249 per month begins at the end of the applicable trial period unless the account holder has previously and timely canceled the account by giving JTECH notice of cancellation in accordance with Section 13(b), below or prior to the end of the free trial period, User has entered into a subscription agreement for the Service. THE ACCOUNT HOLDER MUST CANCEL HIS, HER OR ITS ACCOUNT PRIOR TO THE END OF THE FREE TRIAL PERIOD TO AVOID CHARGES. JTECH reserves the right to discontinue or modify trial offers, promotions and special offers at any time in its sole discretion.

(d) Limitation on Users. Each account holder's right to use the Service is personal to the account holder and those employees or other staff of the account holder who use the Service solely on behalf of the account holder's organization. An account is limited to use for the benefit of a single organization or individual. The account holder may be either an individual or organizational entity, but neither the account holder, nor any other user, may resell, rent or timeshare access to the account or use of the Service or other materials available on the JTECH Website without the express prior written consent of JTECH.

(e) Restrictions on Access and Use. User shall not access or attempt to access the Service by any means other than the web or attempt to circumvent or disable any access or use restrictions put in place by JTECH. User shall use the Service only for purposes and in a manner that are permitted by applicable laws, rules and regulations. User shall not (and shall not attempt to) decompile, reverse engineer or otherwise derive or discover the source code of the software underlying the Service, or use the Service in a service bureau or other resale capacity.

3. User's Account

(a) Creating Account. To use the Service, an account must be created, and to create an account, an account holder (or his, her or its authorized representative) must have completed the Service's Registration page and provided the information required on such page (all such information provided shall be referred to herein as “User Account Data”). All User Account Data must be, and must be maintained as, accurate and current during the life of the account, and any inaccuracy therein shall be grounds for account termination.

(b) Notices. JTECH may distribute notices and other important information to account holders to such e-mail addresses, or by publication on the JTECH Website, by transmission through the Service, or by written communication sent by mail to the account holder address on record. Regardless of method, each account holder is responsible to assure that all users of the account or the Service thereunder are notified accordingly and all such users shall be deemed to have received such notice when provided to the account holder of record by reasonable means. Such notices, including any amendments to this Agreement determined by JTECH in its discretion, or to any policies, rules, or restrictions, shall be effective as against the account holder and all other users upon such publication or distribution.

4. Content and Data.

(a) Responsibility for Content Resulting From Use of the Service. User acknowledges and agrees that all information communicated by User in connection with User's use of the Service is the responsibility of User or the person from which the information originated, and that JTECH has no responsibility for such content.

(b) Input Data. As between the parties hereto, User shall own and, other than to the limited extent provided in this Section 4(b), have sole control over any and all data transmitted to the Service by User or by other persons communicating with User via the Service, or collected from User's JTECH product (collectively, the “Input Data”). User hereby grants to JTECH a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license while this Agreement is in effect to (1) use and display the Input Data solely in conjunction with the Service and (2) to aggregate the Input Data with similar information provided by other users of the Service for the purpose of producing industry-level reports and analyses that do not identify User or any franchisor with which User may have a contractual relationship. User acknowledges and agrees that, as between the parties hereto, all Input Data is the responsibility of User; provided, however, that JTECH shall have the right (but not the obligation) in its discretion to remove from the Service any Input Data that violates this Agreement or JTECH's policies and procedures, or is otherwise objectionable.

(c) Security and Retention. JTECH employs reasonable technological and operational security procedures intended to protect data from loss, misuse, alteration, or destruction. However, User acknowledges that no security measure can guarantee against compromise, and JTECH does not guarantee that the servers and databases underlying the Service will not experience any such compromise. User acknowledges that servers and databases are maintained by or on behalf of JTECH to store the Input Data and other data processed by the Service and that JTECH may retain this information as long as it is necessary and relevant for JTECH's operations. In addition, JTECH may retain personal information from closed accounts to comply with the law, prevent fraud, collect any fees owed, resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems, assist with any investigation, enforce this Agreement and take other actions permitted by law.

(d) Privacy. JTECH will process User Account Data in compliance with applicable law and JTECH’s Privacy Policy which is available on JTECH’s corporate website or on request. JTECH's Privacy Policy does not apply to the processing of Input Data by JTECH on behalf of User. Subject to the foregoing, JTECH uses secured servers for conducting online transactions. Steps have also been taken to safeguard the integrity of data and protection of personal information including but not limited to the employment of firewalls, encryption, and authenticated access to internal databases where needed. All personal information is transmitted and protected by encryption technology using Secured Socket Layer (SSL) protocol. If security monitoring reveals possible evidence of criminal activity, information pertaining to such activity will be provided to law enforcement officials.

(e) European Data Processing Addendum. The parties agree that, to the extent User is established within the European Union, European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland and/or JTECH processes Input Data relating to customers or other third parties located in the European Union, European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland on behalf of User, the European Data Processing Addendum contained in Appendix A to this Agreement will apply.
