CHANGES AND TERMINATION

By accessing or using our website (our “Website”), you agree to be bound by our terms of service set forth herein (collectively, our “Terms of Service”). Our Website allows users to access and use our smart profile web application and services therein (the “Platform” and collectively with the Website, our “Services”) and to purchase our smart chip business cards that work exclusively with our Services and connect to a smart profile (our “Smart Card”). Access and use of the Smart Card and Platform are also governed by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree with our Terms of Service, your sole recourse is to discontinue use of our Services and Smart Cards immediately.

By using our Services or Smart Cards, you are also consenting to the terms of our privacy policy located at [https://SMARTBUSINESSCARDS.ME/pdfs/privacy_policy.pdf] (our “Privacy Policy”), which sets out our personal information gathering and dissemination practices.

The Services and Website are owned and operated by SMARTBUSINESSCARDS.ME Inc. and/or its affiliates (references to “SMARTBUSINESSCARDS.ME”, “we”, “us”, or “our” are references to SMARTBUSINESSCARDS.ME Inc. and/or its affiliates).

SERVICES
1. Access. We grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable, limited right to access and use our Services for your own personal networking purposes. The extent of your right of access and use may be subject to (i) your creation of an account within the Service; and (ii) the extent to which you subscribe for premium features within the Service. You agree that you will not copy, attempt to reverse engineer, modify, translate, or disassemble our Services in whole or in part. You may not use or export or re-export our Services except as permitted under the law of the United States and Canada and the laws of the jurisdiction in which our Services were obtained.
2. Updates to the Services. We may update, change, or remove the features or functionality of the Services from time to time with or without notice to you, which means that the Services will evolve as time goes on.
3. Public Profiles. IMPORTANT: You understand and agree that a key function of the Service is making your contact information available through a “smart profile”, which is a dedicated URL containing the contact and other information that you wish to share and which you can manage through the Service. You understand and agree that any personal information you make available on your smart profile within the Services will be published at a publicly accessible and searchable URL. Any third party will be able to view your smart profile through that URL. This includes individuals that receive the URL by connecting with your Smart Card (whether intentionally or inadvertently), as well as any third party with which the individual may share such URL, and any third party who otherwise becomes aware of such URL (whether through an internet search or otherwise). You further understand and agree that your Smart Card works by sharing a link to your public profile URL, and that your Smart Card is not a private means of sharing your contact information.
4. Trials. SMARTBUSINESSCARDS.ME may make available trial periods of the Services. If you subscribe to the Services for a free trial, and do not cancel the subscription prior to the end of the free trial period, the terms will be automatically renewed at SMARTBUSINESSCARDS.ME’s then-current fee for such services unless you opt out of the auto-renewal/decline to renew your subscription. Any data or content uploaded by you, as well as any setting or other customizations to your account, may be deleted by SMARTBUSINESSCARDS.ME if you do not subscribe to the Services following the trial.
