If you use the Agency Features, you acknowledge and agree that Pre-Production Portals may be used for development purposes only, and may not be used in any live or production environment (or otherwise be provided for a client’s use) unless and until such Pre-Production Portals are transferred to a standard paid plan that is priced on a per-Portal basis.
10. Cost of Services
The Services may be free or we may charge a fee for using the Services. If you are using a free version of the Services, we will notify you before any Services you are then using begin carrying a fee, and if you wish to continue using such Services, you must pay all applicable fees for such Services. Note that if you elect to receive text messages through the Services, data and message rates may apply. Any and all such charges, fees or costs are your sole responsibility. You should consult with your wireless carrier to determine what rates, charges, fees or costs may apply to your use of the Services.
Paid Services. Certain of our Services may be subject to payments now or in the future (the “Paid Services”). Please see our Paid Services page for a description of the current Paid Services. Please note that any payment terms presented to you in the process of using or signing up for a Paid Service are deemed part of this Agreement. Billing. To the extent that we will bill you for your use of Paid Services, we use a third-party payment processor (the “Pory Account Payment Processor”) to bill you through a payment account linked to your account on the Services (your “Pory Account”). The processing of such payments will be subject to the terms, conditions and privacy policies of the Pory Account Payment Processor in addition to this Agreement. Currently, we use Stripe, Inc. as our Pory Account Payment Processor. You can access Stripe’s terms of service at https://stripe.com/us/checkout/legal and their privacy policy at https://stripe.com/us/privacy. We are not responsible for error by the Pory Account Payment Processor. By choosing to use Paid Services, you agree to pay us, through the Pory Account Payment Processor, all charges at the prices then in effect for any use of such Paid Services in accordance with the applicable payment terms, and you authorize us, through the Pory Account Payment Processor, to charge your chosen payment provider (your “Pory Account Payment Method”). You agree to make payment using that selected Pory Account Payment Method. We reserve the right to correct any errors or mistakes that the Pory Account Payment Processor makes even if it has already requested or received payment. For clarity, the foregoing only applies to our billing procedures with respect to your use of the Paid Services as Pory’s customer. To review the billing procedures that apply to End-User Transactions (as defined herein), please refer to Section 17 below. Payment Method. The terms of your payment will be based on your Pory Account Payment Method and may be determined by agreements between you and the financial institution, credit card issuer or other provider of your chosen Pory Account Payment Method. If we, through the Pory Account Payment Processor, do not receive payment from you, you agree to pay all amounts due on your Pory Account upon demand. Recurring Billing. Some of the Paid Services may consist of an initial period, for which there is a one-time charge, followed by recurring period charges as agreed to by you. By choosing a recurring payment plan, you acknowledge that such Services have an initial and recurring payment feature and you accept responsibility for all recurring charges prior to cancellation. Information regarding such recurring payment plans and their pricing is available at https://www.pory.io/pricing. WE MAY SUBMIT PERIODIC CHARGES (E.G., MONTHLY) WITHOUT FURTHER AUTHORIZATION FROM YOU, UNTIL YOU PROVIDE PRIOR NOTICE (RECEIPT OF WHICH IS CONFIRMED BY US) THAT YOU HAVE TERMINATED THIS AUTHORIZATION OR WISH TO CHANGE YOUR Pory ACCOUNT PAYMENT METHOD. SUCH NOTICE WILL NOT AFFECT CHARGES SUBMITTED BEFORE WE REASONABLY COULD ACT. TO TERMINATE YOUR AUTHORIZATION OR CHANGE YOUR Pory ACCOUNT PAYMENT METHOD, PLEASE CONTACT US AT SUPPORT@PORY.IO. Current Information Required. YOU MUST PROVIDE CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE INFORMATION FOR YOUR Pory ACCOUNT. YOU MUST PROMPTLY UPDATE ALL INFORMATION TO KEEP YOUR Pory ACCOUNT CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE (SUCH AS A CHANGE IN BILLING ADDRESS, CREDIT CARD NUMBER, OR CREDIT CARD EXPIRATION DATE), AND YOU MUST PROMPTLY NOTIFY US OR OUR Pory ACCOUNT PAYMENT PROCESSOR IF YOUR Pory ACCOUNT PAYMENT METHOD IS CANCELED (E.G., FOR LOSS OR THEFT) OR IF YOU BECOME AWARE OF A POTENTIAL BREACH OF SECURITY, SUCH AS THE UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OR USE OF YOUR ACCOUNT INFORMATION. CHANGES TO SUCH INFORMATION CAN BE MADE BY CONTACTING US AT SUPPORT@PORY.IO. IF YOU FAIL TO PROVIDE ANY OF THE FOREGOING INFORMATION, YOU AGREE THAT WE MAY CONTINUE CHARGING YOU FOR ANY USE OF PAID SERVICES UNDER YOUR Pory ACCOUNT UNLESS YOU HAVE TERMINATED YOUR PAID SERVICES AS SET FORTH ABOVE. Change in Amount Authorized. If the amount to be charged to your Pory Account varies from the amount you preauthorized (other than due to the imposition or change in the amount of state sales taxes), you have the right to receive, and we shall provide, notice of the amount to be charged and the date of the charge before the scheduled date of the transaction. Any agreement you have with your payment provider will govern your use of your Pory Account Payment Method. You agree that we may accumulate charges incurred and submit them as one or more aggregate charges during or at the end of each billing cycle. Auto-Renewal for Paid Services. Unless you opt out of auto-renewal, which can be done by contacting us at support@pory.io, any Paid Services you have signed up for will be automatically extended for successive renewal periods of the same duration as the subscription term originally selected, at the then-current non-promotional rate. To change or resign your Paid Services at any time, please contact us at support@pory.io. If you terminate a Paid Service, you may use your subscription until the end of your then-current term, and your subscription will not be renewed after your then-current term expires. However, you will not be eligible for a prorated refund of any portion of the subscription fee paid for the then-current subscription period. IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO CONTINUE TO BE CHARGED ON A RECURRING MONTHLY BASIS, YOU MUST CANCEL THE APPLICABLE PAID SERVICE BY CONTACTING US AT SUPPORT@PORY.IO OR TERMINATE YOUR Pory ACCOUNT BEFORE THE END OF THE RECURRING TERM. PAID SERVICES CANNOT BE TERMINATED BEFORE THE END OF THE PERIOD FOR WHICH YOU HAVE ALREADY PAID, AND EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THESE TERMS, Pory WILL NOT REFUND ANY FEES THAT YOU HAVE ALREADY PAID. Reaffirmation of Authorization. Your non-termination or continued use of a Paid Service reaffirms that we are authorized to charge your Pory Account Payment Method for that Paid Service. We may submit those charges for payment and you will be responsible for such charges. This does not waive our right to seek payment directly from you. Your charges may be payable in advance, in arrears, per usage, or as otherwise described when you initially selected to use the Paid Service. Free Trials and Other Promotions. Any free trial or other promotion that provides access to a Paid Service must be used within the specified time of the trial. You must stop using a Paid Service before the end of the trial period in order to avoid being charged for that Paid Service. If you cancel prior to the end of the trial period and are inadvertently charged for a Paid Service, please contact us at support@pory.io. Variable Pricing. Certain Paid Services may include pricing that is based on app utilization (e.g., based on the total number of End Users of your Portals). You acknowledge and agree that you are responsible for all fees associated with such Paid Services, even in cases where the utilization of your Portals exceeds your expectations. In cases of such excess utilization, (i) Pory may in its sole discretion elect to provide you with a non-refundable credit (but Pory is under no obligation to do so), and (ii) Pory will not provide refunds under any circumstances.
11. Referral Program
From time to time Pory may offer rewards or incentives for referring others to the Services. The referring user (“Referrer”) may refer individuals or entities who are neither current customers of Pory nor registered users of the Services (“Referee”). A registered user is a person or entity that already has an existing account with Pory. There is no limit to the number of referrals that Referrer can make, nor the cumulative rewards or incentives that the Referrer may receive through such special offer, unless otherwise indicated. Referrer will receive the stated reward or incentive for each Referee sent by the Referrer that completes the required action described in that specific offer (such as signing up for an account or making a purchase). All Referees must be first-time recipients of the offer, and multiple referrals to the same individual or entity will be disregarded. Pory reserves the right to modify or terminate any special offers at any time and to revoke from Referrer and Referee the special offer at Pory’s discretion for any reason or for no reason whatsoever. If Pory determines that Referrer or Referee is attempting to obtain unfair advantage or otherwise violate the terms or spirit of such special offer, Pory reserves the right to (a) revoke any rewards or incentives issued to either Referrer or Referee and/or (b) charge the Referrer or Referee for any rewards or incentives (1) used by Referrer or Referee prior to such revocation or (2) issued by Pory to any ineligible Referrer or Referee. All special offers are subject to any other terms, conditions and restrictions set forth on the Services or presented in connection with the special offer.

Pory MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AS TO THE OPERATION OF SERVICES, OR THE PRODUCTS, INFORMATION, CONTENT (INCLUDING GENERATED CONTENT), MATERIALS, OR OTHER SERVICES INCLUDED ON OR OTHERWISE MADE AVAILABLE TO YOU THROUGH THE SERVICES, UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED IN WRITING. YOU EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. YOU SHOULD NOT RELY ON ANY GENERATED CONTENT WITHOUT INDEPENDENTLY CONFIRMING ITS ACCURACY, SUITABILITY OR LEGALITY. GENERATED CONTENT MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL INACCURACIES EVEN IF IT APPEARS ACCURATE BECAUSE OF ITS LEVEL OF DETAIL OR SPECIFICITY.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY LAW, Pory DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Pory DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES, PRODUCTS, INFORMATION, CONTENT (INCLUDING GENERATED CONTENT), MATERIALS, OR OTHER SERVICES INCLUDED ON OR OTHERWISE MADE AVAILABLE TO YOU THROUGH THE SERVICES OR ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS SENT FROM Pory ARE FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY LAW, Pory WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES OF ANY KIND ARISING FROM THE USE OF THE SERVICES, OR FROM ANY PRODUCTS, INFORMATION, CONTENT (INCLUDING GENERATED CONTENT), MATERIALS, OR OTHER SERVICES INCLUDED ON OR OTHERWISE MADE AVAILABLE TO YOU THROUGH THE SERVICES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, AND CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED IN WRITING.
IN NO EVENT WILL Pory BE LIABLE TO ANY PARTY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY TYPE WHATSOEVER RELATED TO OR ARISING FROM THE SERVICES OR ANY USE OF THE SERVICES, OR OF ANY SITE OR RESOURCE LINKED TO, REFERENCED, OR ACCESSED THROUGH THE SERVICES, OR FOR THE USE OR DOWNLOADING OF, OR ACCESS TO, ANY MATERIALS, INFORMATION, PRODUCTS, OR SERVICES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY LOST PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOST SAVINGS OR LOSS OF PROGRAMS OR OTHER DATA, EVEN IF Pory IS EXPRESSLY ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS EXCLUSION AND WAIVER OF LIABILITY APPLIES TO ALL CAUSES OF ACTION, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORIES.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE MAXIMUM AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF Pory ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THE SERVICES OR PRODUCTS EXCEED THE AMOUNT PAID FOR SUCH PRODUCTS OR EXCEED THE GREATER OF $100 OR THE AMOUNTS PAID BY YOU TO Pory IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES IN THE PRECEDING TWELVE (12) MONTH PERIOD. THE FOREGOING SHALL CONSTITUTE Pory’S SOLE LIABILITY AND OBLIGATION, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU, ON BEHALF OF YOUR HEIRS, EXECUTORS, ADMINISTRATORS, LEGAL AND PERSONAL REPRESENTATIVES, HEREBY RELEASE, WAIVE, ACQUIT AND FOREVER DISCHARGE Pory FROM AND AGAINST, AND COVENANT NOT TO SUE, FOR ALL CLAIMS YOU HAVE OR MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE SERVICES, AND THE PRODUCTS. IF YOU ARE A CALIFORNIA RESIDENT, YOU HEREBY WAIVE YOUR RIGHTS UNDER CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE 1542, WHICH STATES “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.”
13. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold the Pory harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages (actual and consequential), losses and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) arising from or in any way related to any claims relating to (a) your use of the Services (including any actions taken by a third party using your account), and (b) your violation of this Agreement. In the event of such a claim, suit, or action (“Claim”), we will attempt to provide notice of the Claim to the contact information we have for your account (provided that failure to deliver such notice shall not eliminate or reduce your indemnification obligations hereunder).
14. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration
In the interest of resolving disputes between you and Pory in the most expedient and cost effective manner, you and Pory agree that every dispute arising in connection with this Agreement will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited (if any) review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of these Terms, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of these Terms. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND Pory ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION.
Despite the provisions of the preceding paragraph, nothing in this Agreement will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.
Arbitrator Any arbitration between you and Pory will be settled under the Federal Arbitration Act, and governed by the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by this Agreement, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting Pory at support@pory.io.
Notice; Process A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified U.S. Mail or by Federal Express (signature required) or, only if such other party has not provided a current physical address, then by electronic mail (“Notice”). Pory’s address for Notice is:
Shooting Unicorns, Inc. 2093 PHILADELPHIA PIKE #3174 CLAYMONT, DE 19703 The Notice must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or Pory may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Pory must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If the dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor, Pory will pay you the highest of the following: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator, if any; (ii) the last written settlement amount offered by Pory in settlement of the dispute prior to the arbitrator’s award; or (iii) $1,000.
Fees and Procedure The parties to the arbitration shall each pay an equal share of the costs and expenses of such arbitration, and each party shall separately pay for its respective counsel fees and expenses; provided, however, that the arbitrator may award attorneys’ fees and costs to the prevailing party, except as prohibited by law. If you commence arbitration in accordance with this Agreement, Pory will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than $10,000, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in San Francisco, California, but if the claim is for $10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse Pory for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
The arbitrator may grant injunctions and other relief. The arbitrator shall administer and conduct any arbitration in accordance with the law of the jurisdiction in which the dispute arose, including civil procedure rules, and the arbitrator shall apply the substantive and procedural law of the jurisdiction in which the dispute arose. To the extent that the AAA Rules conflict with local law, local law shall take preference. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final, conclusive, and binding on the parties to the arbitration. The parties agree that the prevailing party in any arbitration shall be entitled to injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the arbitration award.
No Class Actions YOU AND Pory AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR MEMBER OF ANY CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING except that users may bring a proceeding as a private attorney general, if and as allowed by law. Further, unless both you and Pory agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. Nothing in this Agreement infringes upon any rights a User may have under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, including any rights prohibiting compulsory arbitration.
Modifications to this Arbitration Provision If Pory makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to Pory’s address for Notice, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to Pory’s address for Notice, in which case your account with Pory will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected will survive.
Enforceability If the “No Class Actions” section is found to be unenforceable or if the entirety of this Section 11 is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 11 will be null and void and, in that case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 12 will govern any action arising out of or related to this Agreement.
Right to Opt Out of Arbitration You may submit a statement notifying Pory that you wish to opt out and not be subject to arbitration under this section. Should you desire to opt out, you must notify Pory of your intention to opt out by submitting a written notice, which may be via email to support@pory.io, stating that you are opting out of this section. In order to be effective, your opt-out notice must be provided within thirty (30) days of your agreeing to these Terms. Should you timely opt out of this section, you may pursue available legal remedies and will not be required to arbitrate claims.
15. Choice of Law
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, United States of America, without giving effect to any conflict of law principles, except as may be otherwise provided in supplemental terms applicable to your region. Any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be adjudicated in San Francisco, California, U.S.A.
16. Termination of Service

Pory may also terminate your privilege to use or access the Services immediately and without notice for any reason whatsoever. Upon such termination, you must immediately cease accessing or using the Services and agree not to access or make use of, or attempt to use, the Services. Furthermore, you acknowledge that Pory reserves the right to take action -- technical, legal or otherwise -- to block, nullify or deny your ability to access the Services. You understand that Pory may exercise this right in its sole discretion, and this right shall be in addition to and not in substitution for any other rights and remedies available to Pory. All provisions of this Agreement which by their nature should survive termination shall survive the termination of your access to the Services, including, without limitation, provision regarding ownership, warranty disclaimers, indemnity, and limitations of liability.
