iForem, Inc., (“iForem”) provides perpetual digital data storage services—in the form of Core Services (see Section 1) and Enhances Services (see Section 2). iForem also maintains a website at www.iforem.com (the “Site”) the use of which is governed by the terms posted on the Site. Read this Customer Services Agreement ("Agreement") carefully; it governs your access to and use of such services. iForem is willing to provide you with access to its services only on the condition that you accept all of the following terms and conditions. By clicking “I Agree,” you acknowledge that you have read and understand this Agreement and you agree to its terms and conditions.
  1. CORE SERVICES
    1. Perpetual Commitment to Provide Core Services:- Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, including but not limited to payment as set forth in Section 1.3, iForem will permanently provide you the following services: (i) perpetual access to storage (to a particular “Vault”) in which you can store and retrieve digital data (“Data”) in perpetuity; (ii) Trust-branded “DeepFreeze” services to prevent designated Data from ever being deleted or modified;(iii) Trust-branded “LockBox” services that enable multiple third parties to submit Data to you for secure, permanent storage; (iv) Trust-branded “DropBox” services that enable you to provide multiple authorized recipients with access to your secure, permanently-stored Data; and (v) Trust-branded “CovertOps” services that immediately forward your secure Data to predetermined recipients or immediately delete it on your the entry of a secret code (all of the foregoing, as further described on the Site, the “Core Services”).
    2. Trust:- A trust has been formed to manage the Core Services (the “Trust”) and, upon payment of the One-Time Fee (as described below), you will become a service beneficiary of the Trust, meaning you will receive a fully-transferable storage certificate with terms and conditions substantially identical to those set forth in Exhibit A (the “Storage Certificate”) that documents and guarantees your right to receive the Core Services in perpetuity. Even if iForem ceases to exist, the Trust will be available in perpetuity to provide you with access to your Data. By entering into this Customer Services Agreement, you are accepting the terms and conditions of the Storage Certificate, which becomes effective in the case of an iForem Failure (as defined in Section 11.1).
    3. Payment:- You agree to pay iForem a one-time, fully-paid-up, non-refundable (except as set forth in Section 9.2, below) payment for the Core Services (the “One-Time Fee”), as specified during the registration process based on the size you elect for your Vault (“Storage Allotment”) and the capacity you elect for your maximum sending and receiving of Data to and from your Vault each month (“Bandwidth Allotment”). Each time you decide, for any reason, to increase your Storage Allotment or Bandwidth Allotment, you agree to promptly pay an additional one-time, non-refundable fee (“Fees For Increased Services”), the amount of which will be based on the amount of increase you order, which increase will be permanent. The current pricing for various sized Vaults and bandwidth levels is provided on the Site at www.iforem.com and is subject to change from time to time without notice.
    4. Payment for Allocation, Not Use:- Your initial One-Time Fee and any Fees For Increased Services apply to storage capacity and user access at any given time and monthly bandwidth, each as allocated to you without regard to your actual usage. Using less storage or fewer Authorized Users (as defined in Section 4.2) over any duration than the capacity you paid for will not increase your available capacity going forward. Using less than your allocated bandwidth in a given calendar month will not increase your available bandwidth in following months.
    5. Exceeding Your Storage or Bandwidth Allotment:- In the event you exceed the Storage Allotment for which you have paid, iForem will retain the Data that is in excess of your Storage Allotment (“Excess Data”) for a period of fourteen (14) days after such Excess Data was deposited (the “Retention Period”). iForem will provide e-mail notice to you that you have exceeded your Storage Allotment, and your Excess Data will be deleted (on a last deposited, first out basis) at the end of the Retention Period if you have not reduced your Data to within your Storage Allotment or paid the applicable Fees For Increased Services to permanently increase your Storage Allotment. In the event you exceed your Bandwidth Allotment in any given month, iForem will provide e-mail notice to you and you will not be able to access your Vault until the earlier of the beginning of the following month or your payment of the applicable Fees for Increased Services.
    6. Term:- The Core Services will be provided in perpetuity unless this Agreement is terminated in accordance with any of Sections 1.2 (you elect to terminate for convenience), 11.3 (you elect to terminate for iForem breach), or 11.4 (iForem terminates for your material breach).
    7. Insurance:- iForem recommends insuring any valuable Data that you store in your Vault. Please review the Site at www.iforem.com/insurance/ to determine if iForem offers an insurance policy appropriate for you.
  2. ENHANCED SERVICES
    1. Each Enhanced Service under its Own Agreement:- iForem offers services related to perpetual storage (the “Enhanced Services”) that involve subscription or other fees. Please check the Site for descriptions of the Enhanced Services. If you elect to receive any Enhanced Services, your subscription to such Enhanced Services will be subject to additional terms to be provided during the registration process for such services (an “Enhanced Services Agreement”). All Enhanced Services Agreements will automatically be incorporated into and become exhibits to this Agreement. Where the terms of an Enhanced Services Agreement exhibit that address a particular Enhanced Service directly conflict with the terms of the main body of this Agreement, the terms of the Enhanced Services exhibit will govern for the purposes of such Enhanced Service. For terms that do not directly conflict, the terms of the main body of this Agreement will govern.
    2. Terms Applicable to Each Enhanced Service. For each Enhanced Service to which you subscribe::-
      1. you will pay the amounts set forth in the Enhanced Services Agreement; and
      2. you will have the right to terminate the Enhanced Service for convenience on sixty (60) days written notice.
    3. Modifications to or Discontinuation of Enhanced Services:- . iForem reserves the right at any time and from time to time to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, all or part of any Enhanced Service, upon notice to users of such service. You agree that iForem will not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension or discontinuance of any Enhanced Service. This provision does not apply to the Core Services, which can be discontinued only in accordance with Section 11.
  3. 3. PAYMENT TERMS
    You will pay iForem any fees due under this Agreement within thirty (30) days of the earlier of the date of invoice (if any) or the date on which the fee became payable. Interest will accrue on any overdue amounts owed by you at the lesser of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. You will pay all sales, use and other taxes imposed by any applicable laws and regulations as a result of the payments under this Agreement, other than taxes based upon iForem's net income.

  8. CONFIDENTIALITY & SECURITY
    1. Confidentiality:- iForem will hold your Data in confidence and will not intentionally disclose it without your consent except to its vendors to provide the Core Services and Enhanced Services and will not intentionally use or disclose it without your consent except in the good faith belief, in iForem’s sole discretion, that such use or disclosure is reasonably necessary to (i) comply with a legal process (ii) enforce this Agreement or iForem’s other rights, or (iii) respond to claims that any Data violates the rights of third parties. To the extent legally permissible and commercially practicable, iForem will attempt to give you advance notice of such disclosure in order to enable you to attempt to prevent or limit such disclosure.

    3. Compliance:- iForem will have the right, but not the obligation, to review your Data and your activities on the Service to assess your compliance with this Agreement.
  9. WARRANTY
    1. Availability:- iForem warrants that the Core Services will be accessible for the term of this Agreement with an average of 95% Availability (as defined below) as measured over rolling six calendar-month periods (each, a “Period”).

      “Availability” during any given Period is calculated as time during which you are actually able to access the Core Services and is calculated as A = (y - z)/y * 100%

      Where:
      “A” is the Availability of access to the Core Services during such Period;

      “y” is the total number of hours in such Period minus the number of hours during such Period that you are unable to access the Core Services because of (a) scheduled maintenance windows as to which you have been notified by iForem at least one week in advance; (b) a Force Majeure Event; (c) non-performance of hardware, software, and other equipment that is not provided by iForem or under control of iForem for use in conjunction with Web Services (except as such non-performance is caused by iForem);

      “z” is the number of separate clock-hours in such Period during which you attempted to access the Core Services one or more times and found it was unavailable (other than for reasons in the definition of “y” above); provided that you promptly notified iForem or iForem was otherwise aware (or reasonably should be aware) that access was unavailable. For example, if you promptly notified iForem that you attempted to access the Core Services and found it unavailable at 1:05, 1:30, 1:53, and 2:12, then z=2.

    2. Remedy:- Your sole and exclusive remedy for either or both of (a) iForem’s breach of warranty or (b) iForem’s failure to provide Core Services (other than in the case of complete iForem Failure as set forth in Section 11.1), is up to a 50% refund of the total of the One-Time Fee and any Fees For Increased Services you have paid, in accordance with the following:
      1. 5% of your One-Time Fee and any Fees For Increased Services if the Core Services are Available less than 95% of the hours for any Period.
      2. 10% of your One-Time Fee and any Fees For Increased Services if the Core Services are Available less than 90% of the hours for any Period.
      3. 25% of your One-Time Fee and any Fees For Increased Services if the Core Services are Available less than 75% of the time for any Period.
      4. Under no circumstances will your remedy for iForem’s breach of warranty exceed a percentage, X, of the total of your One-Time Fee plus any Fees For Increased Services, where X equals 50% minus 10% per full year of Core Services you have received from iForem.
    3. Disclaimer:- OTHER THAN AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN SECTION 9.1: (1) YOUR USE OF THE CORE SERVICES AND ENHANCED SERVICES IS AT YOUR OWN RISK, AND THE CORE SERVICES AND ENHANCED SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS; (2) IFOREM AND ITS AFFILIATES EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT; (3) IFOREM MAKES NO WARRANTY THAT (i) THE SERVICE WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, (ii) THE CORE SERVICES OR ENHANCED SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE OR THAT THEY WILL BE COMPATIBLE WITH ANY PARTICULAR COMPUTER OR DEVICE, OR (iii) ANY ERRORS IN THE SOFTWARE OR CORE SERVICES OR ENHANCED SERVICES WILL BE CORRECTED; AND (4) NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED BY YOU FROM IFOREM OR THROUGH OR FROM THE CORE SERVICES OR ENHANCED SERVICES WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THISE AGREEMENT. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ANY MATERIAL OR DATA YOU RETRIEVE THROUGH THE USE OF THE CORE SERVICES OR ENHANCED SERVICES IS DONE AT YOUR CHOICE AND RISK AND THAT YOU WILL BE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR COMPUTER SYSTEM OR LOSS OF DATA THAT RESULTS FROM THE RETRIEVAL OF SUCH MATERIAL OR DATA. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
    4. No Representaions to Third Parties:- You will make no representations or warranties regarding any Core Services or Enhanced Services to any third parties.
  10. INDEMNITY
    1. Upon iForem’s request, you agree to indemnify and hold iForem harmless from and against any and all third-party claims, losses, liability costs, and expenses (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys' fees) (any, a “Claim”) arising from: (a) use of your or another Authorized User’s account (whether or not by an Authorized User) where the Claim is related to the contents of the Data, including but not limited to a Claim that the Data is in one or more of the categories set forth in Section 5.2.1 or that the Data is technologically harmful (including but not limited to that it is a virus, worm, or Trojan Horse); (b) your violation of this Agreement, state or federal laws or regulations, or any third party's rights, including but not limited to infringement of any intellectual property, violation of any proprietary right, invasion of any privacy rights, or breach of contract; (c) your misappropriation, use, or disclosure of any Authorized User’s information in a manner or for a purpose not explicitly authorized by such Authorized User, or (d) your breach of any representation or warranty set forth in this Agreement.

    4. Termination by iForem for Your Breach:- iForem has the right to terminate this Agreement (or, at its sole discretion, to reduce or limit your storage capacity, authorized accounts, or bandwith or terminate one or more particular Vaults) for any material breach that you have not cured 30 days after receiving written notice of such breach. Failure to pay any fees due or invoiced hereunder will be considered such a material breach. If iForem terminates for breach, iForem will continue to store your Data in your Vault, and you will be able to remove your Data from your Vault, for a period of thirty (30) days from the effective date of termination but iForem will not refund any amount of your One-Time Fee or any Fees For Increased Services.
    5. Retention at iForem’s Discretion:- Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 11, iForem retains the right to retain or delete your Data post termination at its sole discretion without notice to you.

YOU AGREE THAT THE LIABILITY OF IFOREM ARISING OUT OF ANY KIND OF LEGAL CLAIM (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THE CORE SERVICES OR ENHANCED SERVICES WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID INITIALLY AS A ONE-TIME FEE (IN THE CASE OF A CORE SERVICE) OR IN THE PRECEEDING TWELVE (12) MONTHS (IN THE CASE OF AN ENHANCED SERVICE) FOR THE SERVICE FROM WHICH THE LIABILITY AROSE.
