Payments and Billing

Pegara accepts major credit cards. Please note that any payment terms presented to you in the process of using or signing up for paid Services are deemed part of this Agreement.

We use third-party payment processors (the "Payment Processors") to bill you through a payment account linked to your Account on the Services (your "Billing Account") for use of the paid Services. The processing of payments may be subject to the terms, conditions, and privacy policies of the Payment Processors in addition to this Agreement. We are not responsible for error by the Payment Processors. By choosing to use paid Services, you agree to pay us, through the Payment Processors, all charges at the prices then in effect for any use of such paid Services in accordance with the applicable payment terms. You also authorize us, through the Payment Processors, to charge your chosen payment provider (your "Payment Method"), and agree to make the payment using that selected Payment Method.

Billing and Terms

The term of this Agreement shall be hourly or monthly, to commence on the date that the Subscriber signs up electronically for the Services by creating an Account. All invoices are denominated, and Subscriber must pay, in U.S. Dollars.

For monthly service, Subscribers are billed monthly between 2nd and 5th day of each month, with payment due no later than ten (10) days past the invoice date. On rare occasions, a Subscriber may be billed an amount up to the Subscriber's current balance in an effort to verify the authenticity of the Subscriber's account information. Monthly fees and renewal fees will be billed at the rate agreed to at the time of purchase. This process ensures that Subscribers without a payment history are not subjected to additional scrutiny. Subscribers are entirely responsible for the payment of all taxes.

Hourly Subscribers shall be billed at between 2nd and 5th day of each month with payment due no later than ten (10) days past the invoice date. Subscribers are entirely responsible for the payment of all taxes.

Except in the case of subscription commitments you have agreed to, which shall be nonrefundable, as permitted by law, if you cancel, you agree that fees for the first month of Services and any start-up costs associated with setting up your Account ("Start-up Costs") shall be nonrefundable, as permitted by law. With the exception of any subscription commitments agreed by you, if you paid fees in advance for any period longer than one month, then you may, with the exception of fees for the first month of Services and any Start-up Costs, obtain a refund on a pro rata basis for the period remaining after you cancel.

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. 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 PAYMENT METHOD. SUCH NOTICE WILL NOT AFFECT CHARGES SUBMITTED BEFORE WE REASONABLY COULD ACT. TO TERMINATE YOUR AUTHORIZATION OR CHANGE YOUR PAYMENT METHOD, GO TO https://www.gpueater.com/console/servers .

YOU MUST PROVIDE CURRENT, COMPLETE, AND ACCURATE INFORMATION. YOU MUST PROMPTLY NOTIFY US OR OUR PAYMENT PROCESSORS IF YOUR 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 USER NAME OR PASSWORD. CHANGES TO SUCH INFORMATION CAN BE MADE AT https://www.gpueater.com/console/servers. 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 BILLING ACCOUNT UNLESS YOU HAVE TERMINATED YOUR PAID SERVICES AS SET FORTH ABOVE.

Payments not made within ten (10) days of invoicing, the account will be deemed to be in default. Pegara may suspend service to such account and take legal actions to collect the full amount due, including any attorneys' fees and costs.

IN NO EVENT SHALL WE, NOR OUR DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, PARTNERS, SUPPLIERS OR CONTENT PROVIDERS, BE LIABLE UNDER CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, NEGLIGENCE OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICES (I) FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, DATA LOSS, COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES, OR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, COMPENSATORY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER, SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES (HOWEVER ARISING), (II) FOR ANY BUGS, VIRUSES, TROJAN HORSES, OR THE LIKE (REGARDLESS OF THE SOURCE OF ORIGINATION), OR (III) FOR ANY DIRECT DAMAGES IN EXCESS OF (IN THE AGGREGATE) OF FEES PAID TO US FOR THE PARTICULAR SERVICES DURING THE IMMEDIATELY PREVIOUS ONE MONTH PERIOD, EVEN IF PEGARA HAD BEEN ADVISED OF, KNEW, OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWN, OF THE POSSIBILITY THEREOF.

THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS SHALL BE APPLIED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

Confidentiality

Subscriber shall keep confidential any confidential information to which it is given access, and shall cooperate with Pegara's efforts to maintain the confidentiality thereof. Subscriber shall not publish to third parties or distribute information or documentation that Pegara provides for purposes of operating and maintaining its systems, including material contained in estimates, invoices, work orders, or other such materials.

WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO ASSUME THE EXCLUSIVE DEFENSE AND CONTROL OF ANY MATTER OTHERWISE SUBJECT TO INDEMNIFICATION BY YOU, IN WHICH EVENT YOU WILL ASSIST AND COOPERATE WITH US IN ASSERTING ANY AVAILABLE DEFENSES.

Termination and Access

Pegara reserves the right, in our sole discretion, to terminate your access to all or any part of the Services at any time, with or without notice, effective immediately, including but not limited to as a result of your violation of any of the Agreement or any law, or if you misuse system resources, such as, by employing programs that consume excessive network capacity, CPU cycles, or disk IO. Any such termination may result in the forfeiture and destruction of information associated with your Account. Pegara may provide prior notice of the intent to terminate Services to you if such notice will not, in Pegara's discretion, run counter to the intents and purposes of the Agreement. Except as otherwise set forth hereunder, any and all fees paid hereunder are non-refundable and any and all fees owed to Pegara before such termination shall be immediately due and payable, including any liabilities that may have been incurred prior to termination such as Pegara's costs for collection (including attorneys' fees) of any such charges or other liabilities. Upon termination, any and all rights granted to Subscriber by this Agreement will immediately be terminated, and Subscriber shall promptly discontinue all use of the Services. If you wish to terminate your Account, you may do so by following the instructions on the Website or through the Services. All provisions of these Terms of Service that by their very nature survives termination, shall survive termination, including and without limitation to, licenses of User Content, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnity and limitations of liability.

In other words, if you violate the Agreement, then we have the right to put a hold on your account. These actions are reserved for the most drastic offenses; you will more likely receive a warning and will be able to continue using our services as long as the undesirable behavior ceases. You, however, are free to terminate your account.

Choice of Law, Venue, Consent to Email Service, and Waiver of Hague Convention Service Formalities

Any claim arising hereunder shall be construed in accordance with the substantive and procedural laws of the State of California, without regard to principles of conflict of laws. You agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and Federal courts of San Francisco County, California governs any dispute arising from or relating to the subject matter of the Agreement. Subscriber consents to service of process via email at the email address(es) provided by Subscriber, and waives any requirement under the Hague Convention or other judicial treaty requiring that legal process be translated into any language other than English.

Dispute Resolution

You and Pegara agree to the following dispute resolution procedure: in the event of any controversy, claim, action, or dispute arising out of or related to: (i) the Website; (ii) this Agreement; (iii) the Services; (iv) the breach, enforcement, interpretation, or validity of this Agreement; or (v) any other dispute between you and Pegara ("Dispute"), the party asserting the Dispute shall first try in good faith to settle such Dispute by providing written notice to the other party (by first class or registered mail) describing the facts and circumstances (including any relevant documentation) of the Dispute and allowing the receiving party 30 days in which to respond to or settle the Dispute. Notice shall be sent (1) if to Pegara, Inc. at: 4000 Barranca Parkway, Suite 250, Irvine, CA 92604 or (2) if to you at: your last-used billing address or the billing and/or shipping address in your Account information. Both you and Pegara agree that this dispute resolution procedure is a condition precedent that must be satisfied prior to initiating any arbitration or filing any claim against the other party.

Mandatory Arbitration Agreement and Class Action Waiver

In the interest of resolving disputes between you and Pegara in the most expedient and cost effective manner, you and Pegara agree that every dispute arising in connection with these Terms will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited 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 PEGARA ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. This Section will not apply to disputes arising under the U.S.-EU/U.S.-Swiss Safe Harbor frameworks, which shall instead be administered under the rules for the resolution of disputes arising under the Safe Harbor frameworks specified in the Pegara Safe Harbor filing with the U.S. Department of Commerce.

Nothing in these Terms will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (i) bring an individual action in small claims court; (ii) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (iii) seek injunctive relief in a court of law; or (iv) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

Any arbitration between you and Pegara will be settled under the Federal Arbitration Act, and governed by the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Expedited Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, "AAA Rules") of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in San Francisco, California.

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"). Pegara's address for Notice is: Pegara, Inc., 4000 Barranca Parkway, Suite 250, Irvine, CA 92604. 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 Pegara may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Pegara 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, Pegara 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 Pegara in settlement of the dispute prior to the arbitrator's award; or (iii) $1,000.

YOU AND PEGARA 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. Further, unless both you and Pegara 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.

If Pegara makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to Pegara's address for Notice, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to Pegara's address for Notice, in which case your account with Pegara will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected will survive.

If this Section is found to be unenforceable or if the entirety of this Section is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section will be null and void and, in that case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in the Agreement will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement.

Miscellaneous Provisions

Neither you nor Pegara shall be liable for nonperformance of the terms herein to the extent that either you or Pegara are prevented from performing as a result of any act or event which occurs and is beyond your or Pegara's reasonable control, including, without limitation, acts of God, war, unrest or riot, strikes, any action of a governmental entity, weather, quarantine, fire, flood, earthquake, explosion, utility or telecommunications outages, Internet disturbance, or any unforeseen change in circumstances, or any other causes beyond either party's reasonable control.
