TERMS OF USE

By registering for, initiating access to, or continuing to interact with the software, interfaces, application programming interfaces, and networked utilities operated by Connections in Action ("Company," "we," "us," or "our"), you ("Subscriber," "User," or "Licensee") unconditionally enter into a legally enforceable covenant governed by these Terms of Use.

If you execute this Agreement on behalf of a corporation, partnership, or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you possess full administrative authority to bind that entity. If you lack such legal mandate, or do not concur with every covenant outlined herein, you must immediately terminate all sessions and discontinue utilization of our services.

Services are exclusively provisioned to commercial organizations, authorized professionals, and individuals who are at least eighteen (18) years of age or the age of legal majority within their domicile. Access by minors is strictly prohibited.

Users are solely obligated to verify that their engagement with Connections in Action complies with all territorial statutory provisions, trade embargoes, and regulatory statutes applicable within their operating jurisdiction.

We preserve the discretionary authority to amend, restate, or modernize these Terms at any time to reflect infrastructural expansions, legislative directives, or operational realignments. Substantive amendments shall be announced via portal notifications or through direct email transmissions dispatched to your designated billing contact.

The revised terms become operative immediately upon posting unless a future operative date is explicitly designated. Continuous access to our network infrastructure after the publication of modifications constitutes your binding acceptance of the modernized text.

To access the administrative dashboard and operational tooling, Subscribers must configure verified credentials. You agree to submit accurate, current, and exhaustive registration attributes and promptly update billing and contact information upon modification.

• Authentication secrets, passkeys, and API tokens must be safeguarded with enterprise-grade key management practices.
• Credential delegation, multi-user seat sharing, or unauthorized proxy routing is prohibited without explicit written consent.
• Immediate notice must be transmitted to [email protected] upon identifying any unauthorized access or credential leak.

Conditioned upon consistent compliance with these Terms, Connections in Action grants you a revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable limited license to execute and interface with the platform in direct furtherance of your enterprise activities.

All title, source architectures, machine intelligence models, UI frameworks, proprietary schemas, patents, and trademark assets remain the exclusive intellectual property of Connections in Action and its licensors. No title or ownership interest is conveyed to the Subscriber.

Subscribers are expressly enjoined from engaging in or enabling third parties to conduct any of the following restricted operations:

• Reverse engineering, decompiling, disassembling, or extracting baseline source code from compiled platform artifacts.
• Deploying automated scraping bots, spiders, crawlers, or unauthorized extraction scripts without our explicit API authorization.
• Transmitting unsolicited mass electronic messages (spam), phishing campaigns, malware payloads, or malicious scripts.
• Circumventing rate limitations, security perimeters, or authentication barriers established across cluster nodes.
• Utilizing platform endpoints to assemble, benchmark, or train competing SaaS utilities or derivative intelligence models.

Subscriber preserves all proprietary ownership of customer records, transaction payloads, and corporate artifacts ingested into the platform ("Subscriber Data"). Subscriber grants us a restricted operational license to ingest, duplicate, process, and transmit Subscriber Data solely to deliver platform capabilities.

All processing operations adhere strictly to our Data Protection Addendum and international privacy frameworks. Complete data handling methodologies are cataloged at https://connectionsinaction.com/privacy.

The platform enables optional interoperability with independent third-party web services, payment gateways, and data stores. Connections in Action does not control, supervise, or endorse external platforms, and disclaims all liability stemming from third-party operational interruptions, data compromises, or unilateral API deprecations.

Access tiers, monthly subscriptions, and consumption-based telemetry are billed in advance per designated cycles. All financial obligations are denominated and collected in United States Dollars (USD) unless otherwise stipulated in a signed Enterprise Order Form.

• All stated fees are exclusive of national, federal, state, and local value-added taxes, which remain the sole obligation of the Subscriber.
• Past-due accounts incur finance interest charges calculated at 1.5% per month or the highest statutory rate permitted by law.
• Payment transaction inquiries must be directed to our automated billing desk via [email protected].

Subscribers may terminate recurring service subscriptions through the self-service management console prior to the initialization of the subsequent billing cycle. Cancellations take effect at the conclusion of the active prepaid term.

Except where mandated by non-waivable statutory consumer protection laws, all recurring subscription payments, onboarding fees, and API overage settlements are entirely non-refundable.

Connections in Action deploys commercially reasonable methodologies to preserve an annualized system uptime target of 99.9% for core routing and cluster endpoints, excluding planned maintenance periods scheduled during off-peak windows.

System status updates, incident post-mortems, and scheduled maintenance notices are published in real time via our network operations feed at https://status.connectionsinaction.com.

Service credits or uptime commitments do not apply during outages precipitated by: (a) Subscriber telecommunications failures, (b) external denial-of-service incursions, (c) uncertified hardware configurations, or (d) third-party cloud infrastructure degradations outside our direct architectural perimeter.

Subscriber agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Connections in Action, its corporate officers, directors, contractors, and agents from any third-party claims, liabilities, damages, penalties, and legal expenses (including reasonable attorney fees) arising from: (a) Subscriber's breach of this Agreement, (b) improper data ingestion, or (c) infringement of third-party IP rights.

We agree to defend Subscriber against formal third-party claims alleging that our unmodified core platform directly infringes registered patents or copyrights, subject to immediate notification and sole control of defense.

Each party acknowledges that during the commercial term it may obtain access to non-public technical, architectural, operational, or commercial information marked as confidential ("Confidential Information"). The receiving party covenants to protect such materials with the same degree of care deployed for its own proprietary assets, but not less than reasonable care.

Confidential obligations shall survive the termination of this Agreement for five (5) consecutive years, while trade secret obligations persist in perpetuity.

Upon thirty (30) days advance written notification, Connections in Action reserves the authority to review Subscriber's volumetric usage logs to corroborate compliance with licensed seat limitations, API thresholds, and prohibited usage stipulations. Audits shall be executed during normal operating hours without unreasonable disruption.

Neither party shall be adjudged in contractual default or incur liability for delivery failures caused by conditions beyond its rational control, including seismic anomalies, fires, utility grid collapses, war, acts of terrorism, armed hostilities, national emergencies, regional labor strikes, or widespread internet transit disruptions.

This Agreement persists in full force while Subscriber maintains an active account profile. Connections in Action retains discretionary authority to suspend, revoke, or terminate infrastructure access immediately and without advance notice if Subscriber breaches material terms, generates infrastructure threats, or fails to satisfy billing obligations within ten (10) calendar days of notification.

In the event of any operational or legal controversy stemming from this covenant, the parties pledge to pursue informal executive negotiation for thirty (30) business days. Unresolved controversies shall be submitted to confidential, binding commercial arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules.

All arbitral awards rendered by the tribunal shall be final and enforceable within any competent court of sovereign jurisdiction.

This Agreement, its interpretation, and all collateral disputes shall be governed by and construed in conformity with the substantive laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to choice of law or conflict principles. The UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is explicitly excluded.

If any clause of this Agreement is adjudged invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by an authoritative judicial tribunal, such determination shall not impair the legality of the remaining sections, which shall remain in full force. The failure to enforce any covenant does not constitute a waiver of future rights.

Sections addressing Intellectual Property, Warranties, Liability, Indemnification, and Governing Law shall survive contractual termination.

These Terms, coupled with the Privacy Policy and executed Enterprise Service Orders, comprise the complete, integrated understanding between the parties, superseding all prior oral or written representations, proposals, or communications.

In the event of conflict between this baseline document and a signed Enterprise Master Services Agreement, the terms of the signed enterprise agreement shall prevail.
