Last Updated: December 15, 2023

Thank you for choosing BYOU for your business. When you use our products and services you’re agreeing to our terms, so please read these Terms of Service carefully as they contain important information regarding your legal rights and obligations. Certain capitalized words below are defined in Section 15 (Definitions).

BYOU provides online business management software services designed specifically for businesses in the wellness industry (“Software Service”). You can access our Software Service via the Partnerslogin page on our Websites and through our Apps.

These Terms of Service (“Agreement”) apply to any use of and access to the Services by you and your Affiliates. By accessing or using the Services (or enabling an Affiliate to access or use the Services), you are indicating that you have read this Agreement and agree to be bound by its terms. If you do not agree with all of the terms of this Agreement, you may not access or use any Services.

This Agreement is effective (“Effective Date”) on the earlier of (1) the date you accept this Agreement by clicking an “I Agree” button or otherwise indicate that you accept this Agreement (including through an Order Form), or (2) the date you (or an Affiliate) first access or use the Services.

The English language version of this Agreement and any notice or other document relating to this Agreement shall prevail if there is a conflict.

1. General Terms

1.1 Agreement. This Agreement is a binding legal agreement between you and the applicable BYOU Entity indicated in Section 14.4 below (“BYOU”, “we”, “us” or “our”). If you enter into this Agreement on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the legal authority to bind that entity and its Affiliates to this Agreement, and all references to “you” and “your” in this Agreement are referring to that entity. You and BYOU are also sometimes referred to in this Agreement individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties”.

Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect and use information that’s submitted to the Services. By using the Services, you are indicating that you’ve read the Privacy Policy and agree to its terms.

This Agreement applies to any use of the Services, whether in connection with a paid subscription or a free trial. For clarity, this Agreement does not apply to use of the BYOU App. That has a separate agreement, which is accessible through the BYOU App. In addition, if you (or any third party on your behalf) uses our APIs, you will be subject to the applicable API terms set forth at https://developers.BYOUonline.com/Resources/DeveloperAgreement (or such other URL as specified by BYOU), as may be updated by BYOU from time to time and/or any other terms designated by BYOU.

To the extent that BYOU processes Your Data originating from the European Economic Area, or the United Kingdom, or with respect to Personal Information (defined within the Privacy Annex) that is processed on behalf of you which relates to residents of the State of Delaware, the terms of the Privacy Annex apply between the Parties.

1.2 Changes to the Agreement. We may, in our sole discretion, make changes to this Agreement from time to time. Any changes we make will become effective when we post a modified version of the Agreement to https://co.BYOUonline.com/legal/terms-of-service (or such other URL as specified by BYOU), as may be updated by BYOU from time to time, and we agree the changes will not be retroactive. If we make any material changes to the Agreement, we’ll also notify you within the Software Service or by sending you an email. If you continue using the Services after any changes, it means you have accepted them. If you do not agree to any changes, you must stop using the Services, and you can terminate your account by submitting a Support Request. It is your obligation to ensure that you read, understand and agree to the latest version of the Agreement. The legend at the top of the Agreement indicates when it was last changed.

1.3 Supplemental Terms. Your use of, and participation in, certain Services may be subject to additional terms (“Supplemental Terms”) and such Supplemental Terms will either be listed in this Agreement or will be presented to you for your acceptance when you sign up to use the supplemental Service. If this Agreement is inconsistent with the Supplemental Terms, the Supplemental Terms will control with respect to the service with which it applies.

2. Services

2.1 Software Services

• 2.1.1 Access and Service Levels. BYOU will make the Services to which you have subscribed available to you, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. During the Subscription Term (defined below), the Software Services will meet the service levels specified in the Service Level Agreement (“SLA”).

• 2.1.2 Changes to Services. Notwithstanding Section 2.1.1, in addition to our rights set forth in Section 8.4, we reserve the right to suspend any Services (1) in connection with a Force Majeure event (as described in Section 14.9), (2) if we believe any malicious software is being used in connection with your account, or (3) during planned downtime as provided in the SLA. In addition, we reserve the right to change, suspend or discontinue any features, components or functions of the Services at any time. If we make any material changes to the Software Service, we’ll notify you within the Software Service or by sending you an email. Notwithstanding the above, we have no obligation to update or enhance any Services or to produce or release new versions of any Services.

2.2 Third Party Offerings. Although the Services may allow you to access or use Third Party Offerings, they are not “Services” under this Agreement and are not subject to any of the warranties, service commitments or other obligations with respect to Services hereunder. The availability of any Third Party Offerings through the Services does not imply BYOU’s endorsement of or affiliation with the provider. BYOU does not control Third Party Offerings and will have no liability to you or Affiliates in connection with any Third Party Offerings. BYOU has no obligation to monitor or maintain Third Party Offerings, and may disable or restrict access to any Third Party Offerings at any time. By using or enabling any Third Party Offering, you are expressly permitting BYOU to disclose Your Data or other information to the extent necessary to utilize the Third Party Offering. YOUR USE OF THIRD PARTY OFFERINGS IS AT YOUR OWN RISK AND IS SUBJECT TO ANY ADDITIONAL TERMS, CONDITIONS AND POLICIES APPLICABLE TO SUCH THIRD PARTY OFFERINGS (SUCH AS TERMS OF SERVICE OR PRIVACY POLICIES OF THE PROVIDERS OF SUCH THIRD PARTY OFFERINGS).

2.3 Support Services. As part of the Services you will have access to BYOU’s standard support services described at https://support.BYOUonline.com/s/article/214494348-Standard-Support-Services (or such other URL as specified by BYOU), as may be updated by BYOU from time to time. For an additional fee, you may purchase Professional Services as described at https://www.BYOUonline.com/business/professional-services (or such other URL as specified by BYOU), as may be updated by BYOU from time to time.

2.4 Recently Acquired Offerings. As an administrative courtesy to you, we may offer Recently Acquired Offerings to you through this Agreement before fully integrating, testing, and improving such offerings to meet our standards, which may take up to 12 months. All representations and/or warranties made by us in this Agreement do not apply to such Recently Acquired Offerings.

2.5 Marketing Services. As part of the Software Service, your business will be listed on the BYOU App and websites (the “Partner Network”). From time to time, BYOU may offer subscribers the opportunity to participate in certain promotional programs (“BYOU Promote”), which are designed to promote your business and attract customers. Additional terms specific to the use of these Marketing Services apply and are hereby incorporated by reference into this Agreement as if set forth fully herein. BYOU reserves the right to charge fees for the Marketing Services. You agree to pay all applicable fees related to the Marketing Services in accordance with Section 4.2 of this Agreement.

2.6 Free, Trial and Beta Services. BYOU may in its sole discretion offer free, trial or beta Services from time to time at no charge. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein: (1) any free, trial or beta Services are provided “AS IS” with no warranties of any kind; and (2) BYOU may discontinue any free, trial or beta Services or your ability to use such Services at any time, with or without notice and without any further obligations to you. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, free Services that have not been accessed or used for 12 consecutive months may be terminated by us. BYOU will have no liability for any harm or damages suffered by you or any third party in connection with any free, trial or beta Services.

2.7 Professional Services Terms. Additional terms specific to the procurement of Professional Services apply and are hereby incorporated by reference into this Agreement as if set forth fully herein.

2.8 Payment Processing. BYOU offers the ability to process payments through the Services (“Payment Processing Services”). Payment Processing Services are provided by our third-party payment processing partners as Third Party Offerings and any procurement by you or your Affiliates will be subject to a separate merchant agreement which will be solely between you (or your Affiliate) and the third party processor. If you use Payment Processing Services you agree that you and your Affiliates will comply with the terms and conditions of any applicable merchant agreements and all applicable card network rules, policies, laws and regulations, at all times while using such Payment Processing Services.

At BYOU's sole discretion, you may be offered Payment Processing Services provided by Stripe (“BYOU Payments”). BYOU Payments are subject to the Stripe Connected Account Agreement, which includes the Stripe Terms of Service (collectively, the “Stripe Services Agreement”) and subject to certain fees and surcharges communicated to you during the enrollment process and as may be updated by BYOU from time to time. By enrolling in BYOU Payments, you agree to be bound by the Stripe Services Agreement, as the same may be modified by Stripe from time to time. As a condition of BYOU enabling Payment Processing Services through Stripe, you agree to provide BYOU accurate and complete information about you and your business, and you authorize BYOU to share it and transaction information related to your use of the Payment Processing Services provided by Stripe pursuant to our Privacy Policy. To the extent permitted by law, we may collect any obligations you owe us under this Agreement by deducting the corresponding amounts from funds payable to you arising from the settlement of card transactions through BYOU Payments. Fees will be assessed at the time a transaction is processed and will be first deducted from the funds received for such transactions. If the settlement amounts are not sufficient to meet your obligations to us, we may charge or debit the bank account or credit card registered in your account for any amounts owed to us. Your failure to fully pay amounts that you owe us on demand will be a breach of this Agreement. You will be liable for our costs associated with collection in addition to the amount owed, including without limitation attorneys' fees and expenses, costs of any arbitration or court proceeding, collection agency fees, and any applicable interest. Additionally, we may require a personal guaranty from a principal of a business for funds owed under this Agreement. If we require a personal guarantee we will specifically inform you. In addition to the amount due, delinquent accounts may be charged with fees that are incidental to the collection of delinquent accounts and chargebacks including, but not limited to, collection fees and convenience fees and other third parties charges. You hereby explicitly agree that all communication in relation to delinquent accounts will be made by electronic mail or by phone, as provided to BYOU by you. Such communication may be made by BYOU or by anyone on its behalf, including but not limited to a third party collection agent.

BYOU may offer special pricing, credits, and/or discounts to you or your Affiliates for the Services contingent upon timely procurement, and continued material usage, of the Payment Processing Services and/or BYOU Payments. In the event you or your Affiliate stop utilizing the Payment Processing Services and/or BYOU Payments, BYOU may, in its sole discretion, revoke the special pricing, credits, and/or discounts being applied to the Services.

2.13 Partner Store. Additional terms specific for the procurement of the Partner Store apply and are hereby incorporated by reference into this Agreement as if set forth fully herein.

Any reference in this Agreement to your “access” or “use” of Services (or similar phrase) is deemed to include access or use, as appropriate, by Affiliates and/or End Users, and any act or omission of an Affiliate or End User that does not comply with this Agreement will be deemed a breach of this Agreement by you.

Notwithstanding subsection (10) above, and subject to compliance with any instructions posted in the robots.txt file located in the root directory of any Website, BYOU grants to the operators of public search engines permission to use spiders to copy materials from the Websites for the sole purpose of (and solely to the extent necessary for) creating publicly available, searchable indices of such materials, but not caches or archives of such materials. BYOU reserves the right to revoke these permissions at any time and without notice.

4.2 Change in Subscription Fees. Unless otherwise specified in an Order Form, the Subscription Fees during a Renewal Term (defined below) will be updated to the pricing set forth on the applicable Website when each Renewal Term begins. If You have an Order Form, BYOU may increase any fees specified in an Order Form, provided the increase will not become effective until the subsequent Renewal Term. Prices are subject to change for those Services you have elected not to purchase or that are otherwise not identified in the Order Form. BYOU may also convert any free, trial or beta Service into a Service subject to a Subscription Fee upon notice to you, and your rights to such Service will be suspended if you do not pay the Subscription Fee.

4.3 Payment Terms. You agree to pay the Subscription Fees and any other applicable fees stated on an Order Form or otherwise specified in this Agreement. YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL SUBSCRIPTION FEES FOR THE ENTIRE SUBSCRIPTION TERM. All payment obligations under this Agreement are non-cancelable and all fees paid are non-refundable. Unless otherwise stated on an Order Form, fees must be paid in advance of each billing period. You will provide BYOU with valid and updated credit card information or another form of payment acceptable to BYOU. If you provide credit card information, you represent that you are authorized to use the card and you authorize BYOU to charge the card for all payments hereunder. By submitting payment information, you authorize BYOU to provide that information to third parties for purposes of facilitating payment. You agree to verify any information requested by BYOU for purposes of acknowledging or completing any payment.

4.4 Overdue Charges. Any amounts not received by the applicable due date may accrue late interest at the lesser of either (1) 1.5% of the outstanding balance per month, or (2) the maximum interest permitted by applicable law, whichever is less, plus costs of collection. Any amount not received by BYOU within 30 days after the applicable due date will be deemed a material default under this Agreement, and BYOU will be entitled to either suspend the Services or terminate the Agreement in accordance with Section 8.2.

4.5 Payment Errors. If you believe a payment has been processed in error, you must provide written notice to BYOU within 30 days after the date of payment specifying the nature of the error and the amount in dispute ("Payment Error Notice"). If the Payment Error Notice is not received by BYOU within such 30 day period, the payment will be deemed final.

4.6 Taxes. Subscription Fees do not include any taxes, levies, duties or similar governmental assessments of any nature, including, for example, value-added, sales, use or withholding taxes, assessable by any jurisdiction (collectively, “Taxes”). You are responsible for paying all Taxes associated with purchases and transactions under this Agreement. If BYOU is legally required to pay or collect any Taxes on your behalf, BYOU will invoice you and you will pay the invoiced amount. You acknowledge and agree that we may make certain reports to tax authorities (e.g., 1099 forms) regarding transactions that we process and merchants to which we provide Payment Processing Services are provided. For clarity, BYOU will be solely responsible for taxes assessed on BYOU based on its income.

6.2 BYOU Data. Notwithstanding Section 6.1, all right, title and interest in any data or information collected by BYOU independently and without access to, reference to or use of any of Your Data, including, without limitation, any data or information BYOU obtains about End Users through the BYOU App (whether the same as Your Data or otherwise), will be solely owned by BYOU (collectively, “BYOU Data”).

6.3 Aggregated Data. You agree BYOU owns all Aggregated Data. You also agree that nothing in this Agreement will prohibit BYOU or its affiliates from utilizing Aggregated Data for any purpose, provided such Aggregated Data does not reveal any personally identifying information about you or any End Users or is reasonably linkable to any End User or household.

By accessing or using the Services, you agree to that you have read and accept our Privacy Policy.

You represent and warrant that You are authorized to process Your Data and make such data available to BYOU for uses as set out in the Agreement and Privacy Policy, including through appropriate notice, consent and by your referring individuals, such as End Users, to our Privacy Policy (notwithstanding BYOU’s ability and right, to which You agree, to request consent, and provide notice and its Privacy Policy separately to individuals).

6.5 HIPAA. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 ("HIPAA") imposes rules to protect certain personal health information or “PHI” as that term is defined under HIPAA. If you or any Affiliate is subject to HIPAA and providing or processing any PHI in connection with the Services, prior to accessing or using the Services you must notify BYOU and enter into a Business Associate Agreement (“BAA”) in the form provided by BYOU. You are solely responsible for determining whether you or any Affiliates are subject to HIPAA. You may send notice and request a BAA by submitting a Support Request.

6.6 Protection and Security. During the Subscription Term, BYOU will maintain administrative, physical and technical safeguards designed for the protection and integrity of Your Data as detailed in the BYOU Security Policy. BYOU will maintain PCI DSS compliance for the portions of the Services that store and process Cardholder Data. Additional information about BYOU’s security practices can be found here.

6.7 Unauthorized Disclosure. If either Party believes that there has been a disclosure of Your Data in a manner not authorized under this Agreement, such Party will promptly notify the other Party.

Each Party agrees to protect the other Party’s Confidential Information in the same manner that it protects its own Confidential Information of like kind, but in no event using less than a commercially reasonable standard of care. Confidential Information will not include any information that: (1) is or becomes generally known to the public without breach of any obligation owed to the disclosing Party; (2) was known to a Party prior to its disclosure by the other Party without breach of any obligation owed to the other Party; (3) was independently developed by a Party without breach of any obligation owed to the other Party; or (4) was or is received from a third party without breach of any obligation owed to the other Party. For clarity, nothing in this Section 7 will restrict BYOU with respect to BYOU Data or Aggregated Data.

8. Term, Termination and Suspension

8.1 Term. Unless otherwise specified in an Order Form, the initial term of this Agreement is 90 days (“Initial Term”). The Initial Term begins on the Effective Date and, unless otherwise specified in an Order Form, automatically renews in successive and consecutive 30 day periods (each a “Renewal Term” and collectively with the Initial Term, the “Subscription Term”) until this Agreement is properly terminated. Either Party may terminate this Agreement for any reason or no reason, by giving the other Party at least 30 days’ notice before the end of the relevant Subscription Term. If you elect to terminate this Agreement early, you will remain responsible for payment of all fees owed for the entire Subscription Term and will continue to be charged each month for the remainder of the Subscription Term.

8.2 Termination for Cause. BYOU may terminate this Agreement and/or any subscription, effective immediately upon notice to you, if you or an Affiliate are in material breach of this Agreement. In the event of a termination pursuant to this Section 8.2, in addition to other amounts you may owe BYOU, you must immediately pay any unpaid Subscription Fees associated with the remainder of the Subscription Term. In no event will any termination relieve you of your obligation to pay any fees payable to BYOU for the period prior to the effective date of termination.

8.3 Rights on Termination or Expiration. Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement (1) all Order Forms will automatically terminate and be of no force or effect; (2) you will have no rights to continue use of the Services and will cease accessing and/or using the Services; and (3) except as specified in the following paragraph, BYOU will have no obligation to maintain your Services account or to retain or forward any data to you or any third party, except as required by applicable law.

For a period of no greater than 30 days following a notice of termination, BYOU will make Your Data (except Cardholder Data and Content (as defined in §2.12)) available to you through BYOU’s standard web services. Upon request by you within 30 days following the termination date of this Agreement, and provided that: (1) you have paid BYOU all amounts owed under this Agreement; and (2) the Parties have an agreed upon a SOW (as defined in Section 2.7), BYOU will make Your Data in its possession or control available to you through BYOU’s data export service. After such 30 day period, BYOU will have no obligation to retain or provide Your Data, except as required by applicable law. If at any time during the Subscription Term you require BYOU’s assistance in retrieving Your Data, additional fees may apply.

The following will survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement: the Introduction and Sections 1, 2.3, 2.5, 3, 4 (other than Section 4.1), 5, 6, 7, 8.3, 8.4, 9.1, 9.3, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15.

8.4 Right to Terminate or Suspend Services. We may suspend or terminate your access to and use of the Services (or any portion thereof) at any time without notice if we believe (1) that any activity or use of Services in connection with your account violates this Agreement, the intellectual property rights of a third party or applicable laws, or is otherwise disruptive or harmful to BYOU or any third party, (2) that we are required to do so by law, or (3) where the Parties do not agree on the use of a sub-processor.

9. Warranties & Disclaimer

BYOU will have no obligation with respect to a warranty claim under this Section 9.2 unless notified by you in writing no later than 30 days after the first instance of any material functionality problem. This warranty will only apply if the applicable subscribed Services have been utilized in accordance with this Agreement and applicable laws. For clarity, this warranty will not apply to any free, trial or beta Services.
