This Agreement (as defined below) is entered into by and between Flipview Limited, New Zealand Company Number 6802714 with offices at Auckland, New Zealand (“FlipView”, “we”, “us”, “our”) and the person agreeing to these terms or the person on whose behalf you are agreeing to this Agreement (“Customer”, “you”, “your”).
This Agreement is effective and legally binding as of the date you tick the checkbox online to accept the Agreement or, if applicable, the date the Agreement is signed by the last party to sign (the “Effective Date”). If you are accepting this Agreement on behalf of another person, such as your employer or a company, you represent and warrant that:
This Agreement governs Customer’s access to and use of the Services.
Services: The “Service(s)” comprise the SaaS Service described below and the support services described below.
The SaaS Service provided by FlipView enables the Customer to allocate surveys and questionnaires to “Survey Participants” and dashboard reporting functionality to “End Users”. Once the Survey Participants complete their allocated surveys and questionnaires, the SaaS Service generates a dashboard with associated reporting for the End Users to review. FlipView reserves the right to add new features, bug fixes and enhancements to the SaaS Service from time to time by making it available on the Site, provided always that Customer will be provided with reasonable advance notice in writing. Any new feature, enhancement, addition, change or upgrade to the current SaaS Service shall be subject to this Agreement. FlipView may, from time to time, retire old features of the Service, after providing no less than 6 months advance notice in writing to the Customer (unless the Customer agrees in writing to a shorter period). The parties acknowledge and agree that this 6months notice period does not apply to third party plug in software services (e.g. newsfeed or similar) which are not material to the core performance and functionality of the Services. If after any upgrade, you prefer a retired feature, FlipView may, in its sole discretion (acting reasonably at all times) and without any obligation to do so, agree to provide the retired feature to you. You agree to ensure that your use of the Service does not violate any applicable law, including any applicable law against spamming. Customer must ensure no one uses the Site or the Services in any other manner or to violate any intellectual property rights of FlipView or third parties and shall use the Services in accordance with all applicable laws, including intellectual property laws, and any reasonable directions given by FlipView from time to time.
FlipView’s provision of the Service to you is non-exclusive. Nothing in this Agreement prevents FlipView from providing the Service to any other person.
Fees and invoicing: Your access to use the Services is granted on a subscription basis in accordance with the Pricing Schedule. You acknowledge your access to the Services may be terminated or suspended, without prejudice to FlipView’s other rights and remedies, if undisputed invoices are not paid by the due date FlipView reserves the right to adjust the fee structure from time to time, but in any event no more than once a year, provided always that there will be no adjustment to the fee structure for 24 months from the Effective Date. If FlipView chooses to modify the fee structure, FlipView will provide the Customer written notice (which may be by email) at least 90 days prior to the modifications taking effect. You must pay FlipView the Fees. We will provide you with valid tax invoices on a monthly basis prior to the due date for payment.
You must pay the Fees:
Term: This Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and continue until terminated in accordance with its terms. FlipView will continue to bill the Fees to the Customer until this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms. The minimum term for use of FlipView is 12 months, and unless notified otherwise, your contract for services will continue thereafter subject to termination on ninety (90) days written notice.
