Your Nexus vis-à-vis Axero

Your use of Axero's products, software, services and web sites (referred to collectively as the "Services" in this document and excluding any services provided to you by Axero under a separate written agreement) is subject to the terms of a legal agreement between you and Axero. Unless otherwise agreed in writing with Axero, your use of Axero Services shall always include, at a minimum, the terms and conditions set out in this document. These are referred to below as the "Axero Terms". If any additional terms are applicable on any Services provided by Axero, the same shall be called as "Supplemental Terms" and shall be applicable in addition to the Axero Terms. All of these are referred to below as the "Supplemental Terms". Where Supplemental Terms apply to a Service, these will be accessible for you to read either within, or through your use of, that Service. If there is any conflict between the Supplemental Terms and the Axero Terms, the Supplemental Terms shall take prerogative in relation to that Service.

Accepting the Terms

Please read the following Axero Terms before accessing or using any of the Services made available to you by Axero. You represent that you are 18 years of age or older, and can and will be legally bound by this Agreement. If you are a minor, your parent or guardian must read and accept the terms of this Agreement before you register.

In order to use the Services, you must first agree to the Terms. You may not use the Services if you do not accept the Terms.

You can accept the Terms by:

Clicking to accept or agree to the Terms, where this option is made available to you by Axero in the user interface for any Service; or
By actually using the Services. In this case, you understand and agree that Axero will treat your use of the Services as acceptance of the Terms from that point onwards.

You may not use the Services and may not accept the Terms if:

you are not of legal age to form a binding contract with Axero, or
you are a person barred from receiving the Services under the laws of the United States or other countries including the country in which you are resident or from which you use the Services.

Provision of the Services by Axero

Axero has subsidiaries and affiliated legal entities around the world ("Subsidiaries and Affiliates"). Sometimes, these companies will be providing the Services to you on behalf of Axero itself. You acknowledge and agree that Subsidiaries and Affiliates will be entitled to provide the Services to you.

Axero is constantly innovating in order to provide the best possible experience for its users. You acknowledge and agree that the form and nature of the Services which Axero provides may change from time to time without prior notice to you.

As part of this continuing innovation, you acknowledge and agree that Axero may stop (permanently or temporarily) providing the Services (or any features within the Services) to you or to users generally at Axero's sole discretion, without prior notice to you. You may stop using the Services at any time. You do not need to specifically inform Axero when you stop using the Services.

You acknowledge and agree that if Axero disables access to your account, you may be prevented from accessing the Services, your account details or any files or other content which is contained in your account.

You acknowledge and agree that while Axero may not currently have set a fixed upper limit on the number of transmissions you may send or receive through the Services or on the amount of storage space used for the provision of any Service; such fixed upper limits may be set by Axero at any time, at Axero's discretion.

Use of the Services by you

In order to access certain Services, you may be required to provide information about yourself (such as identification or contact details) as part of the registration process for the Service, or as part of your continued use of the Services. You agree that any registration information you give to Axero will always be accurate, correct and up to date.

You agree to use the Services only for purposes that are permitted by (a) the Terms and (b) any applicable law, regulation or generally accepted practices or guidelines in the relevant jurisdictions (including any laws regarding the export of data or software to and from the United States or other relevant countries).

You agree not to access (or attempt to access) any of the Services by any means other than through the interface that is provided by Axero, unless you have been specifically allowed to do so in a separate agreement with Axero. You specifically agree not to access (or attempt to access) any of the Services through any automated means (including use of scripts or web crawlers) and shall ensure that you comply with the instructions set out in any robots.txt file present on the Services.

You agree that you will not engage in any activity that interferes with or disrupts the Services (or the servers and networks which are connected to the Services).

Unless you have been specifically permitted to do so in a separate agreement with Axero, you agree that you will not reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, trade or resell the Services for any purpose.

You agree that you are solely responsible for (and that Axero has no responsibility to you or to any third party for) any breach of your obligations under the Terms and for the consequences (including any loss or damage which Axero may suffer) of any such breach.

Your passwords and account security

You agree and understand that you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of passwords associated with any account you use to access the Services.

Accordingly, you agree that you will be solely responsible to Axero for all activities that occur under your account.

If you become aware of any unauthorized use of your password or of your account, you agree to notify Axero immediately through email at info@axerosolutions.com.

Privacy and your personal information

For information about Axero's data protection practices, please read Axero's privacy policy. This policy explains how Axero treats your personal information, and protects your privacy, when you use the Services.

You agree to the use of your data in accordance with Axero's privacy policies.

Content in the Services

You understand that all information (such as data files, written text, computer software, music, audio files or other sounds, photographs, videos or other images) which you may have access to as part of, or through your use of, the Services are the sole responsibility of the person from which such content originated. All such information is referred to below as the "Content".

You should be aware that Content presented to you as part of the Services, including but not limited to advertisements in the Services and sponsored Content within the Services may be protected by intellectual property rights which are owned by the sponsors or advertisers who provide that Content to Axero (or by other persons or companies on their behalf). You may not modify, rent, lease, loan, sell, distribute or create derivative works based on this Content (either in whole or in part) unless you have been specifically told that you may do so by Axero or by the owners of that Content, in a separate agreement.

Axero reserves the right (but shall have no obligation) to pre-screen, review, flag, filter, modify, refuse or remove any or all Content from any Service. In addition, there are commercially available services and software to limit access to material that you may find objectionable.

You understand that by using the Services you may be exposed to Content that you may find offensive, indecent or objectionable and that, in this respect, you use the Services at your own risk.

You agree that you are solely responsible for (and that Axero has no responsibility to you or to any third party for) any Content that you create, transmit or display while using the Services and for the consequences of your actions (including any loss or damage which Axero may suffer) by doing so.

Proprietary rights

You acknowledge and agree that Axero (or Axero's licensors) own all legal right, title and interest in and to the Services, including any intellectual property rights which subsist in the Services (whether those rights happen to be registered or not, and wherever in the world those rights may exist). You further acknowledge that the Services may contain information which is designated confidential by Axero and that you shall not disclose such information without Axero's prior written consent.

Unless you have agreed otherwise in writing with Axero, nothing in the Terms gives you a right to use any of Axero's trade names, trade marks, service marks, logos, domain names, and other distinctive brand features.

If you have been given an explicit right to use any of these brand features in a separate written agreement with Axero, then you agree that your use of such features shall be in compliance with that agreement and any applicable provisions of the Terms.

Other than the limited license set forth in below, Axero acknowledges and agrees that it obtains no right, title or interest from you (or your licensors) under these Terms in or to any Content that you submit, post, transmit or display on, or through, the Services, including any intellectual property rights which subsist in that Content (whether those rights happen to be registered or not, and wherever in the world those rights may exist). Unless you have agreed otherwise in writing with Axero, you agree that you are responsible for protecting and enforcing those rights and that Axero has no obligation to do so on your behalf.

You agree that you shall not remove, obscure, or alter any proprietary rights notices (including copyright and trade mark notices) which may be affixed to or contained within the Services.

Unless you have been expressly authorized to do so in writing by Axero, you agree that in using the Services, you will not use any trade mark, service mark, trade name, logo of any company or organization in a way that is likely or intended to cause confusion about the owner or authorized user of such marks, names or logos.

License from Axero

Axero gives you a personal, worldwide, royalty-free, non-assignable and non-exclusive license to use the software provided to you by Axero as part of the Services as provided to you by Axero (referred to as the "Software" below). This license is for the sole purpose of enabling you to use and enjoy the benefit of the Services as provided by Axero, in the manner permitted by the Terms.

You may not (and you may not permit anyone else to) copy, modify, create a derivative work of, reverse engineer, decompile or otherwise attempt to extract the source code of the Software or any part thereof, unless this is expressly permitted or required by law, or unless you have been specifically told that you may do so by Axero, in writing.

Unless Axero has given you specific written permission to do so, you may not assign (or grant a sub-license of) your rights to use the Software, grant a security interest in or over your rights to use the Software, or otherwise transfer any part of your rights to use the Software.

Content license from you

You retain copyright and any other rights you already hold in Content which you submit, post or display on or through, the Services. By submitting, posting or displaying the content you give Axero a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, and non-exclusive license to reproduce, adapt, modify, translate, publish, publicly perform, publicly display and distribute any Content which you submit, post or display on or through, the Services. This license is for the sole purpose of enabling Axero to display, distribute and promote the Services and may be revoked for certain Services as defined in the Supplemental Terms of those Services.

You agree that this license includes a right for Axero to make such Content available to other companies, organizations or individuals with whom Axero has relationships for the provision of syndicated services, and to use such Content in connection with the provision of those services.

You understand that Axero, in performing the required technical steps to provide the Services to our users, may (a) transmit or distribute your Content over various public networks and in various media; and (b) make such changes to your Content as are necessary to conform and adapt that Content to the technical requirements of connecting networks, devices, services or media. You agree that this license shall permit Axero to take these actions.

You confirm and warrant to Axero that you have all the rights, power and authority necessary to grant the above license.

Software updates

The Software which you use may automatically download and install updates from time to time from Axero. These updates are designed to improve, enhance and further develop the Services and may take the form of bug fixes, enhanced functions, new software modules and completely new versions. You agree to receive such updates (and permit Axero to deliver these to you) as part of your use of the Services.

Ending your relationship with Axero

The Terms will continue to apply until terminated by either you or Axero as set out below.

If you want to terminate your legal agreement with Axero, you may do so by (a) notifying Axero at any time and (b) closing your accounts for all of the Services which you use, where Axero has made this option available to you. Your notice should be sent, in writing, to Axero's address which is set out at the beginning of these Terms.

Axero may at any time, terminate its legal agreement with you if:

you have breached any provision of the Terms (or have acted in manner which clearly shows that you do not intend to, or are unable to comply with the provisions of the Terms); or
Axero is required to do so by law (for example, where the provision of the Services to you is, or becomes, unlawful); or
the partner with whom Axero offered the Services to you has terminated its relationship with Axero or ceased to offer the Services to you; or
Axero is transitioning to no longer providing the Services to users in the country in which you are resident or from which you use the service; or
the provision of the Services to you by Axero is, in Axero's opinion, no longer commercially viable.

Nothing in this Section shall affect Axero's rights regarding provision of Services under Section 4 of the Terms.

When these Terms come to an end, all of the legal rights, obligations and liabilities that you and Axero have benefited from, been subject to (or which have accrued over time whilst the Terms have been in force) or which are expressed to continue indefinitely, shall be unaffected by this cessation, and the provisions of paragraph 20.7 shall continue to apply to such rights, obligations and liabilities indefinitely.

EXCLUSION OF WARRANTIES

NOTHING IN THESE TERMS, INCLUDING THIS AND THE SUCCEEDING SECTION, SHALL EXCLUDE OR LIMIT AXERO'S WARRANTY OR LIABILITY FOR LOSSES WHICH MAY NOT BE LAWFULLY EXCLUDED OR LIMITED BY APPLICABLE LAW. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OR THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR LOSS OR DAMAGE CAUSED BY NEGLIGENCE, BREACH OF CONTRACT OR BREACH OF IMPLIED TERMS, OR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. ACCORDINGLY, ONLY THE LIMITATIONS WHICH ARE LAWFUL IN YOUR JURISDICTION WILL APPLY TO YOU AND OUR LIABILITY WILL BE LIMITED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

YOU EXPRESSLY UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK AND THAT THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE."

IN PARTICULAR, AXERO, ITS SUBSIDIARIES AND AFFILIATES, AND ITS LICENSORS DO NOT REPRESENT OR WARRANT TO YOU THAT:

YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS,
YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE OR FREE FROM ERROR,
ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED BY YOU AS A RESULT OF YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES WILL BE ACCURATE OR RELIABLE, AND
THAT DEFECTS IN THE OPERATION OR FUNCTIONALITY OF ANY SOFTWARE PROVIDED TO YOU AS PART OF THE SERVICES WILL BE CORRECTED.

ANY MATERIAL DOWNLOADED OR OTHERWISE OBTAINED THROUGH THE USE OF THE SERVICES IS DONE AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION AND RISK AND THAT YOU WILL BE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR COMPUTER SYSTEM OR OTHER DEVICE OR LOSS OF DATA THAT RESULTS FROM THE DOWNLOAD OF ANY SUCH MATERIAL.

NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED BY YOU FROM AXERO OR THROUGH OR FROM THE SERVICES SHALL CREATE ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THE TERMS.

AXERO FURTHER EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES WHICH MAY BE INCURRED BY YOU, HOWEVER CAUSED AND UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY. THIS SHALL INCLUDE, BUT NOT BE LIMITED TO, ANY LOSS OF PROFIT (WHETHER INCURRED DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY), ANY LOSS OF GOODWILL OR BUSINESS REPUTATION, ANY LOSS OF DATA SUFFERED, COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSS;
ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE WHICH MAY BE INCURRED BY YOU, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OR DAMAGE AS A RESULT OF:
- ANY RELIANCE PLACED BY YOU ON THE COMPLETENESS, ACCURACY OR EXISTENCE OF ANY ADVERTISING, OR AS A RESULT OF ANY RELATIONSHIP OR TRANSACTION BETWEEN YOU AND ANY ADVERTISER OR SPONSOR WHOSE ADVERTISING APPEARS ON THE SERVICES;
- ANY CHANGES WHICH AXERO MAY MAKE TO THE SERVICES, OR FOR ANY PERMANENT OR TEMPORARY CESSATION IN THE PROVISION OF THE SERVICES (OR ANY FEATURES WITHIN THE SERVICES);

C. THE LIMITATIONS ON AXERO'S LIABILITY TO YOU IN THE ABOVE PARAGRAPH SHALL APPLY WHETHER OR NOT AXERO HAS BEEN ADVISED OF OR SHOULD HAVE BEEN AWARE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF ANY SUCH LOSSES ARISING.

Copyright and trade mark policies

It is Axero's policy to respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply with applicable international intellectual property law (including, in the United States, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act) and to terminating the accounts of repeat infringers.

Some of the Services are supported by advertising revenue and may display advertisements and promotions. These advertisements may be targeted to the content of information stored on the Services, queries made through the Services or other information.

The manner, mode and extent of advertising by Axero on the Services are subject to change without specific notice to you.

In consideration for Axero granting you access to and use of the Services, you agree that Axero may place such advertising on the Services.

Changes to the Terms

Axero may make changes to the Axero Terms or Supplemental Terms from time to time. When these changes are made, Axero will make a new copy of the Axero Terms available and any new Supplemental Terms will be made available to you from within, or through, the affected Services.

You understand and agree that if you use the Services after the date on which the Axero Terms or Supplemental Terms have changed, Axero will treat your use as acceptance of the updated Axero Terms or Supplemental Terms.

General legal terms

Sometimes when you use the Services, you may (as a result of, or through your use of the Services) use a service or download a piece of software, or purchase goods, which are provided by another person or company. Your use of these other services, software or goods may be subject to separate terms between you and the company or person concerned. If so, the Terms do not affect your legal relationship with these other companies or individuals.

The Terms constitute the whole legal agreement between you and Axero and govern your use of the Services (but excluding any services which Axero may provide to you under a separate written agreement), and completely replace any prior agreements between you and Axero in relation to the Services.

You agree that Axero may provide you with notices, including those regarding changes to the Terms, by email, regular mail, or postings on the Services.

You agree that if Axero does not exercise or enforce any legal right or remedy which is contained in the Terms (or which Axero has the benefit of under any applicable law), this will not be taken to be a formal waiver of Axero's rights and that those rights or remedies will still be available to Axero.

If any court of law, having the jurisdiction to decide on this matter, rules that any provision of these Terms is invalid, then that provision will be removed from the Terms without affecting the rest of the Terms. The remaining provisions of the Terms will continue to be valid and enforceable.

You acknowledge and agree that each member of the group of companies of which Axero is the parent shall be third party beneficiaries to the Terms and that such other companies shall be entitled to directly enforce, and rely upon, any provision of the Terms which confers a benefit on (or rights in favor of) them. Other than this, no other person or company shall be third party beneficiaries to the Terms.

The Terms, and your relationship with Axero under the Terms, shall be governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. You and Axero agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in California to resolve any legal matter arising from the Terms. Notwithstanding this, you agree that Axero shall still be allowed to apply for injunctive remedies (or an equivalent type of urgent legal relief) in any jurisdiction.
