These terms of use are entered into by and between You and the dtx company, a Delaware corporation, and the companies and sites it operates, including “Flowcode” and “Flowpage” (collectively, “dtx,” “Company,” “we,” or “us”). The following terms and conditions together with any documents they expressly incorporate by reference, such as our Privacy Policy, (collectively, “Terms of Use”), govern your access to and use of thedtxcompany.com, flowcode.com, flowpage.com, flow.page, getflowtag.com and our related websites (including any Whitelabeled Domains, as defined below), and to any mobile or desktop applications that we offer (each, an “App”), including any content, functionality, and services offered on or through our websites or Apps, such as Flowcode QR codes (all of the foregoing, collectively “Sites”), whether as a guest or as a user of our functionality.

Please read the Terms of Use carefully before you start to use any of our Sites. As noted above, the Terms of Use include a provision waiving the right to pursue any class, group or representative claim and requiring you to pursue certain disputes through individual arbitration unless you opt-out within the specified time frame. By using any of our Sites, by downloading the App, or by clicking to accept or agree to the Terms of Use when this option is made available to you, you accept and agree to be bound and abide by these Terms of Use, and you authorize our collection, use, disclosure and other handling of information as set forth in our Privacy Policy, found at this link, which is incorporated into these Terms of Use by reference. If you do not want to agree to these Terms of Use or the Privacy Policy, you must not access or use any of our Sites.

If you use the Sites on behalf of a company or other entity, then (i) all references to "you" (except in this sentence) shall include you and that entity, and (ii) you represent and warrant that you are an authorized representative of the entity with the authority to bind the entity to these Terms of Use and to any related agreements, and that you agree to these Terms of Use on the entity's behalf.

User Information

When you create a Personal Flowpage or use your Personal Flowtag or Personal Flowcode, you may receive information about other users. You may collect, use and disclose this information only in compliance with law, including any laws that require notices or consent, including as relates to cookies, tracking technologies, sharing data with third parties, or direct marketing. You are responsible for your compliance with such laws.  Without limiting the foregoing, we reserve the right to prevent user information from being disclosed to or by you where we deem it appropriate to address legal requirements, such as by applying to your Personal Flowpage, and to any related data, any opt-outs or other privacy preferences communicated to us by or on behalf of users.

Subscriptions

We may, from time to time, offer certain subscription services on or through one or more of our Sites (a "Subscription Plan"), including Flowcode Free, Flowcode Pro, Flowcode Pro Plus and Flowcode Pro Flex. We reserve the right to suspend, withdraw or terminate any Subscription Plan service at any time in our sole discretion, whether paid or free, subject to the Refund Policy described further below. Without limiting the foregoing, we reserve the right to charge for any services that currently are free. If we do, we will notify you by email to the address you provided us as part of your subscription to inform you of how long you have to use the services for free before the changes become effective.

Flowcode Free
If you sign up for Flowcode Free, you will receive access to the number of Flowcodes listed on the Plans page under the “Flowcode Free” section for free (subject to changes in fee structure under these Terms of Use). In order to generate any additional Flowcodes, you will need to sign up for a Subscription Plan (see below for further information).

Subscription Plan
If you sign up for a Subscription Plan, you are subscribing to an automatically renewing subscription requiring recurring payments at the stated frequency that you select on the Plans page (e.g., monthly or annually). This section describes Subscription Plans purchased directly with us. If you purchase a Subscription Plan through a third-party App store, the payment terms and conditions of the applicable App store will apply, as discussed in Online Purchases and Other Terms and Conditions below.

When you sign up for a Subscription Plan, you must provide accurate and complete information for a valid payment method, such as a payment card, that you are authorized to use. If you purchase or sign up for a Subscription Plan, you agree that:

  1. You authorize us or our agent (like Stripe) to automatically charge your payment method on a recurring basis at the start of each subscription term for (i) the applicable Subscription Plan charges, (ii) any and all applicable taxes, and (iii) any other charges incurred in connection with your use of the Sites, unless: (a) you terminate your account, (b) you cancel before the applicable renewal date, calculated on Eastern time, (c) Company declines to renew your Subscription Plan, or (d) these Terms are otherwise properly terminated as expressly permitted herein.
  2. Your purchase may be subject to foreign exchange fees or differences in prices based on location (e.g. exchange rates).
  3. All of your Subscription Plan payments are subject to the Company’s refund policy, described below under “Refund Policy”.
  4. We may calculate taxes payable by you based on the billing information that you provide us at the time of purchase, which taxes you agree to pay in full. Taxes shall not be deducted from the payments to Company, except as required by law, in which case you shall increase the amount payable as necessary so that after making all required deductions and withholdings, Company receives and retains (free from any tax liability) an amount equal to the amount it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made.

If any Subscription Plan fee is not paid in a timely manner, or we are unable to process your transaction using the payment method on file, and you do not promptly provide a new eligible payment method through the Flowcode Plan Subscription section of the Billing page in your account or bring your balance current within ten (10) days after we provide you with notification that your account is in arrears, we reserve the right to suspend, disable, cancel or terminate your access to the Site or services or cancel your Subscription Plan or convert it into a Flowcode Free account.

Promotional codes may only be used for your first subscription term. If you purchased your Subscription Plan with a promotional code, each time your Subscription Plan renews, you will be charged the full billing amount. If your Subscription Plan is ever terminated for any reason or you otherwise purchase another subscription, you will not be eligible to use a promotional code.

If your payment details change, your card provider may provide us with updated card details. We may use these new details in order to help prevent any interruption to the Subscription Plan and services. If you would prefer to opt out from this service, please contact us. If you would like to use a different payment method or if there is a change in payment method, please visit the Flowcode Plan Subscription section of the Billing page in your account to update your billing information.

Your Subscription Plan includes one or more additional features as compared to the Flowcode Free service, which may include an increase in the number Flowcodes, customization and management options, or advanced analytics, among other features. From time to time, we may choose in our sole discretion to add, modify, or remove benefits and features from a Subscription Plan. A list of the current features included in your Subscription Plan may be found here: www.flowcode.com/plans. We do not represent or warrant that particular benefits or features will be offered indefinitely and reserve the right to change the prices for or alter the features and benefits associated with a Subscription Plan.

If the pricing for your Subscription Plan increases, we will notify you, and provide you an opportunity to modify your subscription before applying those changes to your account or charging your payment method in connection with an automatic renewal. The notification will inform you of how long you have to change your subscription before the changes become effective. Your continued use of the Site and services after the changes have been made will constitute your acceptance of the changes. If you do not wish to continue subscribing with the new fees or features, you may cancel your subscription. If you accept the new subscription, its terms and conditions will apply for that renewal and all renewals going forward unless changed in accordance with these Terms of Use.

You may cancel your Subscription Plan at any time by clicking “Cancel Plan” under the “Flowcode Plan Subscription” section of the Billing page in your account or by emailing [email protected]. If you cancel your monthly or annual subscription before the end of the then-current subscription term: (i) your access to the Subscription Plan benefits will be terminated and (ii) you will be downgraded to the Flowcode Free plan and any of your Flowcodes which are in excess of the Flowcode Free plan code threshold will be archived and re-directed to flowcode.com or another location of our choosing. Analytics will not be available for archived codes.

If you consent to such conversion, your employer will have full administrative privileges and permissions with respect to all User Content and data in or associated with your account, including all Flowcodes, Flowtags, Flowpages and contact information you have created, collected or stored.  They will control your account, and we can follow their requests and instructions with respect to the account instead of yours.

Refund Policy

Dispute Resolution, Governing Laws and Agreement to Arbitrate on an Individual Basis

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.

By agreeing to these Terms of Use, you and dtx agree that any and all past, present and future disputes, claims or causes of action between you and dtx arising out of or relating to these Terms of Use, the Sites, the formation of these Terms of Use or any other dispute between you and dtx or any of dtx's licensors, distributors, suppliers or agents (including but not limited to any application store or platform from which the Sites are accessed or downloaded), and whether arising prior to or after your agreement to this Section, (collectively, “Dispute(s)”) will be governed by the procedure outlined below.  For avoidance of doubt, this includes claims that have already accrued, i.e., claims you may have based on events that already have occurred.  You and dtx further agree that any arbitration pursuant to this Section shall not proceed as a class, group or representative action.

Initial Dispute Resolution

dtx wants to address your concerns without needing a formal legal case.  Before filing a claim against dtx, you agree to try to resolve the Dispute informally by contacting  [email protected] .  Similarly, dtx will undertake reasonable efforts to contact you (if we have contact information for you) to resolve any claim we may possess informally before taking any formal action. If a Dispute is not resolved within 30 days after the email noting the Dispute is sent, you or dtx may initiate an arbitration proceeding as described below.  Please note that your failure to engage in this process could result in the award of fees against you in arbitration.

Binding Arbitration

If the parties do not reach an agreed upon solution within a period of 30 days from the time informal dispute resolution begins under the Initial Dispute Resolution provision, then either party may initiate binding arbitration as the sole means to resolve claims, subject to the terms set forth below.

All claims arising out of or relating to these Terms (including their formation, performance and breach), the parties’ relationship with each other and/or your use of the Service shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by JAMS in accordance with the provisions of its Streamlined Arbitration and Procedures, excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class or representative actions.

Except as set forth in the “Exception - Litigation of Intellectual Property and Small Claims Court Claims” subsection below, the arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of these Terms of Use, including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of these Terms of Use are void or voidable, whether a claim is subject to arbitration, and any dispute regarding the payment of JAMS administrative or arbitrator fees (including the timing of such payments and remedies for nonpayment). The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The parties agree that the arbitrator may allow the filing of dispositive motions if they are likely to efficiently resolve or narrow issues in dispute. The arbitrator’s award shall be written, and binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. No arbitration award or decision will have any preclusive effect as to issues or claims in any dispute with anyone who is not a named party to the arbitration.

The parties understand that, absent this mandatory provision, they would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. They further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court.

Additional Information About JAMS Arbitration Rules

The Streamlined Arbitration Rules governing the arbitration may be accessed at www.jamsadr.com or by calling JAMS at (800) 352-5267. If you commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms of Use, you will be required to pay $250 to initiate the arbitration. To the extent the filing fee for the arbitration exceeds the cost of filing a lawsuit, the arbitrator may require dtx to pay the additional cost. You are responsible for your own attorneys’ fees unless the arbitration rules and/or applicable law provide otherwise. If the arbitrator finds the arbitration to be non-frivolous, dtx will pay all of the actual filing and arbitrator fees for the arbitration, beyond the initiation fee (which you shall pay), provided your claim does not exceed $75,000. For claims above $75,000, fees and costs will be determined in accordance with applicable JAMS rules. The arbitration rules permit you to recover attorney’s fees in certain cases.

Any arbitration demand or counterclaim asserted by either party must contain sufficient information to provide fair notice to the other party of the asserting party’s identity, the claims being asserted, and the factual allegations on which they are based. The arbitrator and/or JAMS may require amendment of any demand or counterclaim that does not satisfy these requirements. The arbitrator has the right to impose sanctions in accordance with JAMS Rule 24 for any claims the arbitrator determines to be frivolous or improper (under the standard set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11).

The parties agree that JAMS has discretion to modify the amount or timing of any administrative or arbitration fees due under JAMS’s Rules where it deems appropriate, provided that such modification does not increase the costs to you, and you waive any objection to such fee modification. The parties also agree that a good-faith challenge by either party to the fees imposed by JAMS does not constitute a default, waiver, or breach of this “Dispute Resolution, Governing Laws and Agreement to Arbitrate on an Individual Basis” Section while such challenge remains pending before JAMS, the arbitrator, and/or a court of competent jurisdiction.

Location of Arbitration and Governing Law

The arbitration will be held in English and will take place at any reasonable location within the United States convenient for you, provided that you may opt to proceed videographically or telephonically, in which case we shall do the same.  In such case, these Terms of Use, including the arbitration agreement contained in the Terms of Use, will be interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to conflict-of-law or choice-of-law principles.  The agreement to arbitrate, its scope and its enforcement shall also be governed by the United States Federal Arbitration Act without regard to conflict-of-law or choice-of-law principles.

Class Action Waiver

The parties further agree that any arbitration shall be conducted in their individual capacities only and not as a class action or other representative action, and the parties expressly waive their right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. YOU AND DTX AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.   Similarly, neither you nor dtx may bring a claim as a part of a class, group, collective, coordinated, consolidated or mass arbitration (each, a “Collective Arbitration”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing (and as an illustrative but not exhaustive example), a claim to resolve any Dispute against dtx will be deemed a Collective Arbitration if (i) two (2) or more similar claims for arbitration are filed concurrently by or on behalf of one or more claimants; and (ii) counsel for the claimants are the same, share fees or coordinate across the arbitrations. “Concurrently” for purposes of this provision means that both arbitrations are pending (filed but not yet resolved) at the same time.

If there is a final judicial determination that applicable law precludes enforcement of this Section’s limitations as to a particular remedy, then that remedy (and only that remedy) must be severed from the arbitration and may be sought in court. The parties agree, however, that any adjudication of remedies not subject to arbitration shall be stayed pending the outcome of any arbitrable claims and remedies.

Exception - Litigation of Intellectual Property and Small Claims Court Claims

Notwithstanding the parties' decision to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may bring an action in state or federal court to protect its intellectual property rights (“intellectual property rights” means patents, copyrights, moral rights, trademarks, and trade secrets, but not privacy or publicity rights).  Further, notwithstanding any other provision herein, including provisions applicable to arbitration of disputes, either party may also elect to have disputes or claims resolved in a small claims court that are within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction.  Either party may also seek a declaratory judgment or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction regarding whether a party’s claims are time-barred or may be brought in small claims court in your state and county of residence. Seeking such relief shall not waive a party’s right to arbitration under this agreement.

For any dispute not subject to arbitration (and excluding any action brought in small claims court), or any action to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration or confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the arbitrator’s aware, you and dtx agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of and venue in the federal and state courts located in the State of New York.  

You further agree to accept service of process by mail, and hereby waive any and all jurisdictional and venue defenses otherwise available.

30-Day Right to Opt Out

You have the right to opt-out and not be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions set forth above by sending written notice of your decision to opt-out to [email protected] and 233 Spring Street New York NY 10013.  The notice must be sent within 30 days of the later of (i) your initial agreement to these Terms of Use or (ii) the “Effective as of Date” of these Terms of Use where dtx made a material change to this “DISPUTE RESOLUTION, GOVERNING LAWS AND AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS” section.  Otherwise you are bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms of these arbitration provisions. If you opt-out of these arbitration provisions, dtx also will not be bound by them.  

Changes to this Section

dtx will provide 30 days’ notice of any changes to this section in a manner that is reasonable and legally valid.  Changes will become effective on the 30th day. Unless you follow the termination procedure described in the “Changes to the Terms of Use” section above before the 30th day, any unfiled claims of which dtx does not have actual notice are subject to the revised section.

Waiver and Severability

No waiver by the Company of any term or condition set out in these Terms of Use shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of the Company to assert a right or provision under these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

If any provision of these Terms of Use is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of the Terms of Use will continue in full force and effect.

Third Party Beneficiaries

Except as otherwise expressly provided in these Terms of Use, there are no third party beneficiaries intended under these Terms of Use.

Assignment

These Terms of Use, and your rights and obligations hereunder, may not be assigned, subcontracted, delegated or otherwise transferred by you without our prior written consent, and any attempted assignment, subcontract, delegation, or transfer in violation of the foregoing will be null and void.

Entire Agreement

We reserve the right, at our option and in our sole discretion, to assume full control of the defense of claims with legal counsel of our choice. You may not enter into any third-party agreement that would in any manner constitute an admission of fault by us or bind us in any manner or settle a claim hereunder, without our prior written consent.  In the event the Company assumes control of the defense of such claim, the Company shall not settle any such claim requiring payment from you without your prior written approval.

17. Limitations of Liability.

No waiver, alteration or modification of these API Terms shall be binding on us unless made in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the Company. Our failure to insist upon strict adherence to any term of these API Terms shall not be considered a waiver or deprive us of the right to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of these API Terms. The invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability of any provision herein does not affect any other provision herein or the validity, legality, or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.
