By purchasing Celerity Media, creating and registering for a Celerity Media account (an “Account”), and/or using any features of Celerity Media, you acknowledge that you have read, understand and agree to be bound by the Agreement. Changes to the Celerity Media Terms and Conditions, including Celerity Media Solutions Terms (below), will be posted online in advance of their stated effective date, and any such changes will apply to you thereafter if you continue to use Celerity Media or the affected Solution or feature.

The Solutions Terms apply to your access and use of any of the above Solutions, whether originally included in your Celerity Media package, added later as an upgrade, or subsequently provided to you as part of our enhancement of the Celerity Media software. We will endeavor to provide you prior notice of the removal of any material feature of Celerity Media or your Celerity Media Solution. In case of such removal of a material feature, you may opt to terminate your Celerity Media or Celerity Media Solution subscription, as applicable, in which case we will refund any associated prepaid fees for the remainder of the Subscription Period. We also reserve the right to offer or provide trials or tests of new Solutions or features in development (“beta” features or solutions) from time to time. You understand and agree that use of any “beta” features or Solutions is “at your own risk,” as we may discontinue any such “beta” features or Solutions at any time without notice or obligation to you, and/or to thereafter offer any formerly free “beta” feature or Solution as a paid add-on or part of a higher Celerity Media package level.
4. Marketplace. Within your Celerity Media Account you may have access to the Celerity Media Marketplace, which is an aggregated offering of applications and services that may be of interest or use to you.

such Third-Party Provider’s terms and conditions and privacy policy, as applicable. Additionally, the Marketplace may include the capability for you, at your sole discretion, to integrate a Third-Party Provider application with your Celerity Media Account. If you exercise this integration option, you hereby authorize Celerity Media to integrate such Third-Party Provider application with your Celerity Media Account to facilitate the sharing of certain Client Content (defined below) from your Celerity Media Account to your Third-Party Provider account, and the ingestion of Client Content from your Third-Party Provider account to your Celerity Media Account. You acknowledge and agree that (i) Third-Party Providers will have access designated by you to your Client Content and that it is your sole responsibility to evaluate any risks related to your sharing of Client Content with Third-Party Providers; (ii) we have no control over, and—to the max extent permitted by applicable Law—will have no liability for, any acts or omissions of any Third-Party Provider with respect to your sharing of Client Content, and (iii) we may use our third-party vendors to facilitate the transmission of Client Content as contemplated herein. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, we disclaim all liability for the functionality of any Third-Party Provider applications and, unless otherwise expressly provided, for their interoperability with Celerity Media.
5. Term/Auto-Renewal. Unless otherwise specified and agreed to in writing by us at the time of purchase or upgrade, your initial Subscription Period for Celerity Media and any add-on Celerity Media Solution, where applicable, is 3 months, which, if not terminated by you at least 30 days before the end of such period, will thereafter automatically renew month-to-month until terminated as set forth in Section 6 below. We will provide at least 30 days’ notice to you of any material changes that will take effect upon such renewal, including without limitation, removal of material features. If noted in the applicable Solutions Terms, certain add-on enhancements may have different term lengths or may be prorated in their initial term to align with your Celerity Media Subscription Period. If you purchase the Celerity Media Leads or Marketing add-on, however, which prerequires Celerity Media, your Subscription Period for Celerity Media will automatically be set or extended as necessary to make it coterminous with your Celerity Media Leads or Marketing Solution term, as applicable.
6. Cancellation/Termination/Suspension. You may cancel Celerity Media or any upgrade or add-on (“Cancellation”) at any time within three (3) days of purchase (“Cancellation Period”) for a full refund or, if outside the Cancellation Period, you may provide notice to terminate Celerity Media (“Termination”) at least 30 days prior to the beginning of your next Subscription Period. Cancellation or Termination requests must be submitted as described in Section 18 below. Terminations will be effective upon the expiration of your next Subscription Period after your notice is received. Except as expressly provided herein, no refunds will be provided. We reserve the right to terminate or suspend your Account for non-payment at any time. If your credit card is declined, we provide you seven calendar days to remedy this issue and provide proper payment. Thereafter, we may suspend your Account and your access to any and all Celerity Media services and Solutions until payment is received, and you remain responsible for all accrued charges. We may cancel all or any Celerity Media product or Solution in your Order at any time and for any reason (even if previously approved) and we have the right to terminate your Account if you violate the Agreement, or for any or no reason in our reasonable discretion, at any time. If your Account is terminated, you agree: (a) to continue to be bound by the terms of this Agreement that survive termination, as applicable, (b) to immediately stop accessing or using Celerity Media, and (c) that your right to access and use Celerity Media immediately ends. Further, if your Account is terminated (and except where we have separately agreed to a BAA with you), you agree that we may keep all of your information and Account data stored on our servers for up to thirteen (12) months in order to provide our transition services; provided that we reserve the right to immediately delete such information in our sole discretion. You acknowledge and agree, that, to the max extent permitted by applicable Law, we are not liable to you or any third party for termination or suspension of access to your Account or for deletion of your information or Account data.
7. Charges/Billing. You agree to pay the monthly or semi-annual subscription fee and any one-time or other recurring charges listed on your Order or any subsequent invoice. You will be responsible for any taxes due associated with such fees. The rates specified for Celerity Media or add-on Celerity Media Solutions do not include any extra charges that may apply for any additional services that you elect, including separate charges that may apply for optional third-party applications, services or features, such as online payment processing or third-party applications that integrate with Celerity Media, except as otherwise provided in your Celerity Media package description or invoice. You agree to pay for any such services that you use or request at our standard rates or the third-party provider’s specified rates.
8. Payment Terms. RECURRING AUTO PAY. IF YOU PROVIDE US A CREDIT CARD, DEBIT CARD, BANK ACCOUNT NUMBER OR PAYPAL ACCOUNT, YOU AUTHORIZE US TO CHARGE THE CARD OR ACCOUNT
AUTOMATICALLY AT THE START OF EACH BILLING PERIOD FOR THE AMOUNT OF YOUR MONTH OR SEMI-ANNUAL RECURRING CHARGES FOR CELERITY MEDIA AND ANY APPLICABLE ADD-ON CELERITY MEDIA SOLUTION, PLUS APPLICABLE TAXES, AND LESS ANY ACCOUNT CREDITS, UNTIL YOU NOTIFY US TO CANCEL AUTOMATICALLY RECURRING PAYMENTS. It is your responsibility to keep your payment method information current, and you agree that your authorization for recurring payments will continue for any replacement payment information provided by you or the financial institution that provides your payment card, to the extent you have consented to have your financial institution auto-update your payment card information for recurring payees. Fees are due monthly or semi-annually (depending on which payment plan you elected at purchase), in advance, unless otherwise indicated on your Order. You agree to pay all charges in full by the billing due date. You may not withhold any payment for any reason. We may apply or offset payments from you, or monies owed to you, toward amounts owed under the Agreement or any other amounts you owe us.
9. Late Charges. We will assess, and you agree to pay, late charges on balances not paid by the due date. Late charges will begin to accrue after the due date at a rate equal to the lesser of 3% per annum or the highest lawful rate.

You further agree that you will not allow non Authorized Users to use your Account or Credentials to access or use Celerity Media under any circumstances (note: you should not need to provide your Credentials to any of our personnel in order to obtain customer service or support). A specific number of Authorized User Credentials is included in your Celerity Media package/tier, and you may purchase additional Authorized User Credentials as an add-on to your Celerity Media package.

You agree to immediately notify us of any unauthorized use of your Account or any other breach of security known to you. We may revoke your Credentials or deny you or any Authorized User access to any administrative or other functionality, in whole or in part, at any time in our reasonable discretion, but especially if we detect or suspect any threat to the security or integrity of our systems associated with your Account or a violation of Section 10.
12.Operational Limits and Changes. You acknowledge that certain Celerity Media Solutions may be subject to limitations imposed by applicable Laws or the policies of third party service providers that we do not control, and that these limitations may restrict or limit the availability of certain Solutions (e.g., Payments, Social Media Services, Text Marketing, Listings Management, Celerity Media Leads, Celerity Media Pay) for certain types of businesses. You understand that any information or data provided by you to us may not be processed on a real-time basis and may be subject to the latency of the Internet, our systems, third-party networks and sites. In addition, you acknowledge that wireless carriers may implement changes that delay or prohibit our provision of Celerity Media or a Celerity Media Solution. To the max extent permitted by applicable Law, we and our service providers will not be responsible or liable for delays or non-delivery of the services caused by wireless carriers, third party networks, internet providers or search engines. You acknowledge that the operation of Celerity Media, including the Solutions, may from time to time encounter technical or other problems and may not necessarily continue uninterrupted or without technical or other errors, and we shall not be responsible to you or others for any such interruptions, errors or problems or an outright discontinuance of Celerity Media. We will make reasonable efforts to keep Celerity Media operational 24 hours a day/7 days a week, except for: (i) planned downtime; or (ii) any unavailability caused by circumstances beyond our control, including but not limited to, acts of God, acts of government, flood, fire, earthquakes, civil unrest, acts of terror, strikes or other labor problems, third party service provider failures or delays, or Internet service provider failures or delays.
13.Landing Page/Proxy Authorization. You understand and agree that we may create and host a temporary internet site or web page for use solely as a landing page or destination site for those clicking on your Solution advertising (“Landing Page”) at a URL we will choose, provision and administer, which Landing Page and/or URL may incorporate content you make available including your business name, branding and other elements like logos or trade dress. You represent and warrant that you have the authority to authorize us to create and host such a Landing Page using these elements. Alternatively, we may create and host a “proxy” site, which is a close copy of your website on a different URL (“Proxy Page”), for use as a Landing Page with your Solution. You authorize us to create such a Proxy Page and agree to cooperate with us in the placement of necessary code on your original website to effectuate the Proxy Page, and you agree to indemnify us for and assist in resolving claims of infringement based on our use of your business name or the content in your original website in this fashion. You agree that we may vary certain elements of your website in the Proxy Page, such as using a Call Tracking Number or tracking URL in place of your business number or website URL. You agree that we will have the right to collect and use the data collected about users from the Proxy Page(s) used in providing your Solution and that our collection and use of such data is subject to our Privacy Policy which is available at
https://www.celeritymediagroup.com/privacy-policy. You agree to post a privacy policy to govern your collection and use of data from your website that is used as the basis for the Proxy Page and that any privacy policy you adopt must include notice that third parties such as us will collect and process data. In the event you require the use of your existing website as a landing page, you represent and warrant that it will be free of viruses or other computer programming routines that may potentially damage, interfere with, intercept, or expropriate any system data or personal information.
14.Privacy Policy. You agree to maintain a prominent link to an online privacy policy on your website to which your Solution advertisements direct users, and you will ensure that each policy complies with these Terms and Conditions and all applicable laws, regulations, guidelines, and industry standards. In the event we provide you a Landing Page for use with Solution advertisements, you agree (i) that we may include a link to a privacy policy on such Landing Page, and (ii) to abide by such privacy policy.
15.Complying with the Law. You understand that you and your usage of Celerity Media (and your Authorized Users and their usage of Celerity Media) must comply with all laws, rules, regulations, codes and requirements, as well as amendments to these laws, rules, regulations, codes and requirements (the “Laws”) related to Celerity Media and the included features that are applicable to your business, your business type and your business’s location. This includes, but is not limited to, the Telemarketing and Consumer Fraud & Abuse Prevention Act, Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 (TCPA), the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), The Controlling the Assault of Non-Solicited Pornography and Marketing Act of 2003 (CAN-SPAM), and the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (CCPA), as applicable, as well as other relevant laws and regulations governing your activities in marketing, advertising, communications and data collection and use. No Spam Policy: You agree not to use your Celerity Media Solutions for the posting or sending of, nor include or reference any domain name(s) or URL(s) associated with your Solutions in, unsolicited commercial advertising, email, information,
announcements, texts or other messages or any other unsolicited distribution commonly considered to be “Spam.” We may, but have no obligation to, attempt to detect, manage, and eliminate Spam generated from your use of Celerity Media. We discourage the use of Celerity Media, including any Celerity Media Solution (except for authorized payment processing platforms), to upload, communicate, store or solicit any sensitive personal data, including without limitation financial account information, social security numbers, driver’s license or government ID numbers, or private health information. While we provide an industry-standard or higher level of protection for your data stored and messages transmitted through Celerity Media, you understand that Celerity Media is an internet-based, hosted SaaS, and you acknowledge that no server or internet connection can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Thus, you agree that you are responsible for any use by you (or under your Account) of Celerity Media, including any Celerity Media Solution, to upload, communicate, store or solicit any sensitive personal data, and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, we disclaim any liability therefor. You understand that, unless you have separately signed a Business Associate Agreement (“BAA”) with us in relation to Celerity Media, the standard Celerity Media platform is not intended to be compliant with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and is not intended to be used to communicate or store “protected health information.” Accordingly, if you do share any protected health information via Celerity Media absent a BAA with us, you do so without our knowledge or consent and at your own risk. Because you may have the capability to accept credit card payments using Celerity Media, you agree to comply with applicable Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (“PCI DSS”) and Laws with respect to all card data, and to the extent you have the capability to accept payment via ACH debit from a bank account, you agree to comply with National Automated Clearing House Association (“NACHA”) rules, as applicable. You agree that we will have the right to collect and use the data collected about users from the servers used to provide the Celerity Media customer portals and that our collection and use of such data is subject to our Privacy Policy. You acknowledge and agree that we may include a link to a privacy policy on the customer portal web pages, your Celerity Media Website, or otherwise via Celerity Media, which explains how personal information is collected and used on the applicable web page. You acknowledge and agree that you will comply with such privacy policy and all applicable Laws related thereto, and that you are solely responsible for such compliance.
16.Our Rights/Remedies. If you or your affiliates do not pay all charges by 30 days after the due date, fail to meet any other obligation under this Agreement or under any other agreement between us, or make any Client Representation (defined below) or warranty that is or becomes untrue, we may, without notice: (i) require you to pay immediately all unpaid amounts you owe and will owe for your Account;(ii) remove, suspend, or modify your Account access; (iii) suspend or terminate your Account without liability; (iv) recover all collection costs and
attorneys’ fees; and (vi) pursue any other available legal or equitable remedies. If we receive notice from another party contesting your right to use or display a name, trademark, service mark or other content, in addition to the remedies above, we may, without liability to you, cancel or suspend your Account or affected Celerity Media features until you have resolved the dispute with the other party to our satisfaction. We may also remove the disputed content immediately. We may change any content you submit via Celerity Media to conform to our standards, practices and policies or the policies of any third party on whose site, platform or network on which such content is published.
17.Feedback. Any questions, comments, suggestions, ideas, original or creative materials or other information you provide about Celerity Media or our products or services (collectively, “Feedback”), is non-confidential and will become our sole property.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, WE WILL HAVE NO LIABILITY WITH RESPECT TO ANY SERVICES OR FEATURES PROVIDED TO YOU AT NO COST. CELERITY MEDIA, CELERITY MEDIA SOLUTIONS AND RELATED SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS-AVAILABLE” BASIS. WE DISCLAIM ALL REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED OR ARISING BY STATUTE OR OTHERWISE IN LAW OR EQUITY OR BY CUSTOM OR FROM A COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE, INCLUDING ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABLE QUALITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, WE DO NOT REPRESENT OR WARRANT THAT (i) CELERITY MEDIA, CELERITY MEDIA SOLUTIONS OR RELATED SERVICES WILL MEET YOUR NEEDS OR REQUIREMENTS, (ii) THE OPERATION OF CELERITY MEDIA, CELERITY MEDIA SOLUTIONS OR RELATED SERVICES WILL BE CONTINUOUS OR FREE OF DEFECTS, ERRORS OR INACCURACIES, (iii) THE FUNCTIONS CONTAINED IN THE CELERITY MEDIA SOLUTIONS WILL OPERATE IN ALL THE COMBINATIONS WHICH
MAY BE SELECTED FOR USE BY YOU, (iv) YOUR DATA WILL BE SAFE FROM UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS, (v) YOUR CELERITY MEDIA SOLUTIONS WILL BE AVAILABLE OR ACCESSIBLE AT ANY GIVEN TIME, OR (vi) YOUR USE OF CELERITY MEDIA WILL COMPLY WITH ALL APPLICABLE LAWS. Furthermore, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, we do not warrant, and you expressly disclaim any reliance on, any statements or representations, including estimates, not contained in the Agreement.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR OTHER EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR FOR LOSS OF PROFITS OR REVENUE, OR LOSS OF BUSINESS, OR LOSS OF GOODWILL OR REPUTATION, OR LOSS OF USE OR DATA. THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY IN THIS SECTION SHALL APPLY REGARDLESS OF THE NATURE, TYPE OR FORM OF THE CLAIM, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT, INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, EQUITY OR ANY OTHER THEORY OF LIABILITY, EVEN IF CELERITY MEDIA HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES OR IF SUCH DAMAGES WERE FORESEEABLE. FURTHER, WE WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY COMPENSATION, REIMBURSEMENT, OR DAMAGES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH: (I) YOUR INABILITY TO USE CELERITY MEDIA OR ANY SOLUTION, INCLUDING AS A RESULT OF ANY (A) TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR YOUR USE OR ACCESS TO Celerity Media OR ANY SOLUTION, (B) OUR DISCONTINUATION OF CELERITY MEDIA OR ANY SOLUTION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, OR (C) ANY UNANTICIPATED OR UNSCHEDULED DOWNTIME OF CELERITY MEDIA OR ANY SOLUTION FOR ANY REASON; (II) THE COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES; (III) ANY INVESTMENTS, EXPENDITURES, OR COMMITMENTS BY YOU IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR YOUR USE OF OR ACCESS TO CELERITY MEDIA OR ANY SOLUTION; OR (IV) ANY UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO, ALTERATION OF, OR THE DELETION, DESTRUCTION, DAMAGE, LOSS, OR FAILURE TO STORE ANY OF YOUR CONTENT OR OTHER DATA. OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU HAVE PAID UNDER YOUR ACCOUNT FOR CELERITY MEDIA DURING THE 12 MONTHS PRIOR TO ANY CLAIM.
The limitations in this Section shall apply notwithstanding any failure of essential purpose under this Agreement. To the max extent permitted by applicable Law, we are not liable to you for any deviation from or change in our policies, practices, and procedures.
You understand and agree that we have set our prices and entered into this Agreement with you in reliance upon the limitations of liability set forth in these Terms and Conditions, which allocates risk between us and form the basis of a bargain between the parties.
20.Waiver of Class Action and Jury Trial and Consent to Binding Arbitration. Except as set forth below, you and we agree that we will resolve any disputes between us (including any disputes between you and a third-party agent of ours) through binding and final arbitration instead of through court proceedings. You and we hereby waive any right to a jury trial of any Claim (defined below). All controversies, claims, counterclaims, or other disputes arising between you and us or you and a third-party agent of ours (each a “Claim”) shall be submitted for binding arbitration in accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA Rules”). The arbitration will be heard and determined by a single arbitrator. The arbitration shall occur in Missouri unless we mutually agree to another location. Celerity Media shall be deemed to have been provided in Missouri. The arbitration hearing shall be held within six (6) months after the filing of the arbitration demand with the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrator's decision in any such arbitration will be final and binding upon the parties and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. You and we agree that the arbitration proceedings will be kept confidential and that the existence of the proceeding and any element of it (including, without limitation, any pleadings, briefs or other documents submitted or exchanged and any testimony or other oral submissions and awards) will not be disclosed beyond the arbitration proceedings, except as may lawfully be required in judicial proceedings relating to the arbitration, by applicable disclosure rules and regulations of securities regulatory authorities or other governmental agencies, or as specifically permitted by state law. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this agreement. However, the Arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have the exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Agreement including, but not limited to, a claim that all or any part of this Agreement is void or voidable.
If you demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, we will pay as much of the administrative costs and arbitrator's fees required for the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the cost of the arbitration from being prohibitive. In the final award, the arbitrator may apportion the costs of arbitration and the compensation of the arbitrator among the parties in such amounts as the arbitrator deems appropriate.
This arbitration agreement does not preclude either party from seeking action by federal, state, or local government agencies. You and we also have the right to bring qualifying claims in small claims court. In addition, you and we retain the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for provisional relief, including pre arbitral attachments or preliminary injunctions, and any such request shall not be deemed incompatible with this Agreement, nor a waiver of the right to have disputes submitted to arbitration as provided in this Agreement.
Neither you nor we may act as a class representative or private attorney general, nor participate as a member of a class of claimants, with respect to any Claim. Claims may not be arbitrated on a class or representative basis. The arbitrator can
decide only your and/or our individual Claims. The arbitrator may not consolidate or join the claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated. The arbitrator may award in the arbitration the same damages or other relief available under applicable Law, including injunctive and declaratory relief, as if the action were brought in court on an individual basis. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing or herein, the arbitrator may not issue a “public injunction” and any such “public injunction” may be awarded only by a federal or state court. If either party seeks a “public injunction,” all other claims and prayers for relief must be adjudicated in arbitration first and any prayer or claim for a “public injunction” in federal or state court stayed until the arbitration is completed, after which the federal or state court can adjudicate the party’s claim or prayer for “public injunctive relief.” In doing so, the federal or state court is bound under principles of claim or issue preclusion by the decision of the arbitrator.
If any provision of this Section is found to be invalid or unenforceable, then that specific provision shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed, but the remainder of this Section shall continue in full force and effect. No waiver of any provision of this Section of the Terms and Conditions will be effective or enforceable unless recorded in a writing signed by the party waiving such a right or requirement. Such a waiver shall not waive or affect any other portion of these Terms and Conditions. This Section of the Terms and Conditions will survive the termination of your relationship with us.
THIS SECTION LIMITS CERTAIN RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO MAINTAIN A COURT ACTION, THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY FORM OF CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIM, THE RIGHT TO ENGAGE IN DISCOVERY EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN AAA RULES, AND THE RIGHT TO CERTAIN REMEDIES AND FORMS OF RELIEF. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU OR WE WOULD HAVE IN COURT ALSO MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION.
