These Terms of Service, together with any applicable order form, subscription terms, service documentation, acceptable use rules, privacy policy, data processing agreement, business associate agreement, or other written agreement that references these Terms, collectively form the "Terms."

These Terms govern your access to and use of Secure Chat, including our websites, applications, software, APIs, messaging tools, administrative tools, support services, and related services, collectively, the "Service."

By creating an account, clicking "I agree," signing up for the Service, accessing the Service, or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

If you are using the Service on behalf of a company, organization, or other legal entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity. In that case, "you" and "your" refer to both you and that entity.

1. Eligibility

You may use the Service only if:

  • You are at least 18 years old or the age of majority in your jurisdiction;
  • You can form a legally binding contract;
  • You are not prohibited from using the Service under applicable law;

subject to applicable sanctions or embargoes that prohibit use of the Service.

You may not use the Service if we previously terminated or suspended your account for cause unless we provide written permission.

2. The Service

Secure Chat is a software platform that enables users and organizations to communicate, exchange messages, share files, manage conversations, and use related collaboration and security features.

We may modify, update, improve, suspend, or discontinue parts of the Service from time to time. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide notice of material changes that negatively affect paid subscriptions, unless urgent changes are required for security, legal, compliance, or operational reasons.

The Service is not intended for emergency communications. Do not use Secure Chat to contact emergency services, law enforcement, medical providers, or other time-sensitive emergency response resources.

3. Account Registration and Security

To use the Service, you may need to create an account. You agree to:

  • Provide accurate, current, and complete registration information;
  • Keep your account information updated;
  • Maintain the confidentiality of your login credentials;
  • Use strong passwords and available security controls;
  • Promptly notify us of unauthorized access or suspected compromise. You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account, except to the extent caused by our

breach of these Terms.

We may require multi-factor authentication, security verification, or additional account controls for certain users, plans, or administrative functions.

4. Organizations, Administrators, and Managed Accounts

If your account is created or managed by an employer, customer, organization, managed service provider, reseller, or administrator, that organization may control certain aspects of your account and workspace.

Depending on the configuration of the Service, administrators may be able to:

  • Add, suspend, or remove users;
  • Manage security settings;
  • Access audit logs and usage information;
  • Configure retention, deletion, export, and backup settings;
  • Access, review, preserve, export, or delete messages, files, and other content associated with the

organization's workspace.

If you use an organization-managed account, your use may also be subject to your organization's internal policies and agreements.

5. License to Use the Service

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable right to access and use the Service during the applicable subscription term solely for your internal business or personal use, as applicable.

You may not:

  • Copy, modify, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive source code from

the Service, except where prohibited by law;

  • Sell, resell, rent, lease, sublicense, or commercially exploit the Service except as expressly

authorized in writing;

  • Interfere with or disrupt the Service or related systems;
  • Use the Service in violation of applicable law or these Terms.

6. Customer Content

"Customer Content" means messages, files, attachments, text, images, data, metadata, contacts, configurations, and other materials submitted to, transmitted through, stored in, or processed by the Service by or on behalf of you or your users.

You retain ownership of your Customer Content. These Terms do not transfer ownership of your Customer Content to us.

You grant us a limited license to host, store, transmit, process, display, reproduce, back up, secure, analyze, and otherwise use Customer Content solely as necessary to:

  • Provide, maintain, support, and improve the Service;
  • Prevent or address security, abuse, fraud, or technical issues;
  • Comply with applicable law;
  • Enforce these Terms;
  • Perform obligations described in an applicable order form, data processing agreement, business

associate agreement, or other written agreement.

We will not sell Customer Content. We will not use Customer Content for third-party advertising.

We will not use Customer Content to train artificial intelligence or machine learning models unless you expressly authorize us in writing.

You are responsible for Customer Content and for ensuring that you have all rights, consents, permissions, and legal bases necessary to submit Customer Content to the Service.

7. Sensitive and Regulated Data

Unless expressly permitted in a separate written agreement, you may not submit, transmit, store, or process through the Service:

  • Protected health information regulated by HIPAA;

  • Export-controlled technical data;
  • Children's personal information;

required written addendum, such as a Business Associate Agreement, Data Processing Agreement, Security Addendum, or other compliance-specific agreement.

8. Privacy

Our collection, use, disclosure, and protection of personal information is described in our Privacy Policy, available at:

[Insert Privacy Policy URL] By using the Service, you acknowledge that we process personal information as described in the Privacy Policy and any applicable data processing agreement.

If there is a conflict between these Terms and a signed data processing agreement or business associate agreement, the signed data processing agreement or business associate agreement will control for the specific subject matter it covers.

9. Security

We use commercially reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect the Service and Customer Content.

However, no software, network, system, or method of transmission is completely secure. We do not guarantee that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, immune from unauthorized access, or free from vulnerabilities.

You are responsible for:

  • Managing user access and permissions;
  • Enabling available security features appropriate for your use case;
  • Promptly removing users who should no longer have access;
  • Maintaining your own backup copies where appropriate;
  • Reviewing your organization's retention, export, and deletion settings. We may investigate suspected security incidents, abuse, or unauthorized use of the Service. We may

suspend access where reasonably necessary to protect the Service, customers, users, or third parties.

10. Acceptable Use

You may not use the Service to:

  • Violate any law, regulation, contract, intellectual property right, privacy right, or other third-party

right;

11. Third-Party Services and Integrations

The Service may allow you to connect to third-party applications, services, identity providers, storage systems, APIs, or integrations.

Third-party services are not controlled by us. Your use of third-party services may be governed by separate terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for third-party services, including their availability, security, performance, data handling, or support.

If you enable an integration, you authorize us to exchange data with that integration as necessary to provide the requested functionality.

12. Software, Updates, and APIs

We may provide downloadable software, mobile applications, desktop applications, browser extensions, APIs, SDKs, or other components.

You agree to install updates as reasonably necessary for security, compatibility, and performance. Some updates may be automatic.

If we provide APIs, you may use them only in accordance with our documentation, rate limits, security requirements, and written policies. We may limit, suspend, or revoke API access for security, operational, legal, or abuse-prevention reasons.

13. Beta Features

We may offer beta, preview, experimental, trial, or early-access features. Beta features are provided for evaluation only and may be changed, suspended, or discontinued at any time.

Beta features may be incomplete, unstable, or less secure than generally available features. They are provided "as is" and without any service level commitment, warranty, or support obligation unless expressly stated in writing.

14. Fees, Billing, Renewals, and Taxes

Some parts of the Service may require payment. Fees, billing frequency, subscription term, usage limits, and included features will be described at checkout, in an order form, or in your account portal.

You authorize us or our payment processor to charge applicable fees, taxes, and other amounts using your selected payment method.

Unless otherwise stated:

  • Subscription fees are charged in advance;
  • Subscriptions automatically renew for successive terms;
  • You may cancel renewal through your account settings or by contacting us at

[billing@company.com];

15. Trials and Promotions

We may offer free trials, promotional credits, or discounted subscriptions. Trial and promotional terms may be subject to additional conditions.

Unless otherwise stated, trials are provided once per customer or organization. We may modify or terminate trials and promotions at any time.

  • Your use creates a security, legal, operational, or reputational risk;
  • We are required to do so by law or court order;
  • Your account is inactive for an extended period;
  • Continued provision of the Service becomes impractical, unlawful, or commercially unreasonable. Where reasonable, we will provide notice and an opportunity to cure before suspension or termination.

Upon termination:

  • Your right to use the Service ends;
  • You must stop using the Service;
  • We may disable access to your account;

obligated to retain it;

rights, confidentiality, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnification, dispute terms, and general provisions.

17. Data Export and Deletion

During the subscription term, you may be able to export certain Customer Content through available Service features.

After termination or expiration, we may provide limited access for data export for 10 days, unless your account was terminated for legal, security, or abuse-related reasons.

After the applicable export period, we may delete or anonymize Customer Content according to our retention policies, backup practices, and legal obligations.

Deletion from active systems may not immediately remove Customer Content from backups, logs, archives, or disaster recovery systems. Backup deletion will occur according to our standard backup lifecycle unless earlier deletion is legally required and technically feasible.

18. Support and Service Levels

Support is provided according to your plan, order form, or support policy.

Unless we expressly agree to a separate service level agreement, we do not guarantee uptime, response times, resolution times, or availability.

We may perform maintenance, updates, or emergency repairs that temporarily affect availability. Where practical, we will provide advance notice of scheduled maintenance.

19. Intellectual Property

We and our licensors own all rights, title, and interest in and to the Service, including software, source code, object code, designs, interfaces, workflows, documentation, trademarks, service marks, trade names, logos, templates, algorithms, know-how, and all related intellectual property rights.

You may submit suggestions, ideas, feedback, or recommendations regarding the Service. You grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free right to use that feedback without restriction or compensation to you.

Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Georgia, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

Venue

Subject to the arbitration provision below, the state and federal courts located in Fulton County, Georgia will have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising out of or related to these Terms or the Service. Each party consents to personal jurisdiction and venue in those courts.

Optional Arbitration Clause

Any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or the Service will be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its applicable rules.

The arbitration will take place in Gwinette County, Georgia, unless the parties agree otherwise. The arbitration will be conducted in English by one arbitrator.

Either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court if the claim qualifies. The parties waive any right to a jury trial and agree that claims may be brought only on an individual basis, not as a plaintiff or class member in any class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding.

You may opt out of arbitration by sending written notice to [legal@company.com] within 30 days after first accepting these Terms.

29. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will provide notice by email, in-product notice, posting within the Service, or another reasonable method. The updated Terms will become effective on the date stated in the notice.

Your continued use of the Service after updated Terms become effective means you accept the updated Terms.

We will not retroactively make material changes to how we use Customer Content or personal information without providing notice and obtaining consent where required by law.

If you do not agree to updated Terms, you must stop using the Service and cancel your subscription.

30. Notices

We may provide notices to you by email, in-product message, account portal, posting on our website, or other reasonable method.

You are responsible for keeping your account contact information current.

Notices are deemed given when sent, posted, or made available through the Service.

You may not assign or transfer these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, corporate reorganization, sale of assets, change of control, or transfer of the Service to another provider.

Any attempted assignment in violation of this section is void.

We are not liable for delay or failure to perform due to events beyond our reasonable control, including natural disasters, acts of war, terrorism, labor disputes, internet or telecommunications failures, cloud provider outages, power failures, cyberattacks, government actions, civil unrest, pandemics, or other events beyond our reasonable control.

33. Relationship of the Parties

The parties are independent contractors. These Terms do not create a partnership, joint venture, employment relationship, agency relationship, franchise, or fiduciary relationship.

Neither party has authority to bind the other except as expressly stated in writing.

34. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, that provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, or severed if modification is not possible. The remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.

35. Waiver

Failure to enforce any provision of these Terms is not a waiver of that provision or any other provision. A waiver must be in writing and signed by the party granting the waiver.

36. Entire Agreement

These Terms are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service and supersede all prior or contemporaneous agreements, understandings, and communications regarding the Service.
