1. CHANGES TO SITE TERMS

The Effective Date of these Site Terms is set forth at the top of this webpage. As we add new features to the OpenSync Site, we may need to modify these Site Terms.

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED ABOVE, THE OPENSYNC SITE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. Plume specifically disclaims all warranties and conditions of any kind, including all implied warranties and conditions of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, freedom from defects, uninterrupted use and all warranties implied from any course of dealing or usage of trade.  Plume does not warrant that (a) the OpenSync Site will meet your requirements, (b) operation of the OpenSync Site will be uninterrupted or virus- or error-free or (c) errors will be corrected.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF PLUME TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ACCESSING OR USING THE OPENSYNC SITE, FOR CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE USE OF OR ANY INABILITY TO USE THE OPENSYNC SITE OR OTHERWISE UNDER THESE SITE TERMS, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF: (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO PLUME FOR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE OPENSYNC SITE IN THE 12 MONTHS PRIOR TO THE EVENT OR CIRCUMSTANCE GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM AND (B) $100.

EACH PROVISION OF THESE SITE TERMS THAT PROVIDES FOR A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES, OR EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES IS INTENDED TO AND DOES ALLOCATE THE RISKS BETWEEN PLUME AND CUSTOMER UNDER THESE SITE TERMS BUT WILL NOT BE APPLICABLE IF AND WHERE PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW. THIS ALLOCATION IS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN PLUME AND YOU. EACH OF THESE PROVISIONS IS SEVERABLE AND INDEPENDENT OF ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THESE SITE TERMS. THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION 7 WILL APPLY EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

IF YOU ARE A CALIFORNIA RESIDENT, YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542, WHICH SAYS "A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH, IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR".

8. GOVERNING LAW; DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Nothing in these Site Terms will be deemed to waive, preclude or otherwise limit the right to: (i) bring an individual action in small claims court; (ii) pursue an enforcement action through a government regulator or pursue a statutory remedy available in the applicable court of law; (iii) seek injunctive relief in a court of law in aid of arbitration; or (iv) file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

Otherwise, these Site Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to conflict of law principles.

WHERE PERMITTED, YOU AND PLUME AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING.

Our servers and operations are located in the United States and our policies and procedures are based on United States law. The OpenSync Site is not intended for distribution to, or use by, any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation, or that would subject Plume or its affiliates to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction or country.

11. TERMINATION

These Site Terms automatically terminate when you fail to comply with any term or condition of them. Plume may terminate or modify your access to the OpenSync Site, with or without notice to you, at any time for any reason. For example, Plume may prohibit your use of the OpenSync Site if Plume believes that you are a minor or otherwise not a business customer.

Termination will not limit any of Plume's other rights or remedies. Sections 4, 6, 7, 8, 10, 12 and 13, as well as any other provision that must survive to give proper effect to the intent and purpose of these Site Terms, shall survive termination.

We respond to notices of alleged infringement as required by the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”), including by removing or disabling access to material claimed to be the subject of infringing activity.
