Scope of License
Copeland hereby grants to you a revocable, non-transferable, non-exclusive, and limited license to access and use the Software during the Term and subject to the terms and conditions of this EULA on a device that you own, access, or control.

All websites, corporate names, service marks, trademarks, trade names, logos, and domain names (collectively “Marks”) of Copeland and its affiliates are and shall remain the exclusive property of Copeland. Nothing in this EULA shall grant you the right or license to use any of the Marks. Copeland has the non-revocable worldwide license to use or incorporate feedback received into the Software or Product or otherwise provided to Copeland.
In the event of any third party claim that the Software or your possession and use of the Software infringes that third party’s intellectual property rights, Copeland will be solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, and discharge of any such intellectual property infringement claim.

You agree you shall not, directly or indirectly, at any time either during the continuation of or following termination of this EULA disclose or use the Confidential Information of Copeland: (i) other than for the purpose of fulfilling your obligations under this EULA; (ii) except to the extent required by applicable law; and (iii) except where the Confidential Information has become publicly available through no fault of your own. You shall return all such Confidential Information and all copies or recordings of the same to Copeland immediately upon the request of Copeland or the termination of this EULA.

You hereby grant Copeland a non-revocable, non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide, and perpetual right and license to collect and use User Data in connection with the Services and as provided in this EULA and the Privacy Notice and as permitted by applicable law.
Warranties; Disclaimer of Warranties
Each party represents and warrants to the other party that: (i) it has the full power and authority to enter into this EULA and perform its obligations under this EULA; and (ii) the execution, delivery, and performance of this EULA by it does not violate, conflict with, or constitute a default under any agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound.
You further represent and warrant that: (a) you have the right and authority to submit, upload, or otherwise provide User Data to the Software and Services and to grant Copeland a license to such User Data as provided in this EULA; and (b) you will comply with all applicable laws in connection with your use of the Services.
Unless expressly provided otherwise, any warranty Copeland provides for a Product is limited and subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable warranties provided on its Website (as defined herein).
You understand that devices used to access the Software or alerts may rely on wireless networks such as, but not limited to, 5G, 4G LTE, CDMA, GSM (“Wireless Networks”) and that actual signal availability may depend on a combination of the third-party wireless network carriers and availability of and actions of roaming partners, and that factors outside of Copeland’s control, such as weather, buildings, topography, usage, or maintenance activities of wireless network providers may limit or interrupt the Software or alerts. Copeland is not responsible for interruption or limitation of the Software related to issues with Wireless Networks or factors outside of Copeland’s control. Furthermore, any loss, damage, or delay in, or failure of, performance by Copeland shall not constitute a default hereunder, be a ground for termination of this EULA, or give rise to any claims for damage against Copeland if such loss, damage, delay, or failure is attributable in whole or in part to any cause beyond the reasonable control of Copeland (each, a “Force Majeure Event”). A Force Majeure Event can include, without limitation, acts or omissions by you causing delay, acts of God or the public enemy, compliance with any order, decree, or request of any governmental authority, fires, floods, explosions, accidents, riots, strikes, labor difficulties, or other concerted acts of workmen, power or Wireless Networks failure, or any other cause not within the reasonable control of Copeland.
YOU EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, USE OF THE SOFTWARE IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK AND THAT THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO SATISFACTORY QUALITY, PERFORMANCE, ACCURACY AND EFFORT IS WITH YOU. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SOFTWARE AND SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”, WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, AND COPELAND HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE SOFTWARE, EITHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES AND/OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, OF SATISFACTORY QUALITY, OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OF ACCURACY, OF QUIET ENJOYMENT, OF PERFORMANCE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS. NEITHER COPELAND NOR ITS AFFILIATES, SUPPLIERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR CONTRACTORS WARRANT AGAINST INTERFERENCE WITH YOUR ENJOYMENT OF THE SOFTWARE OR SERVICES, THAT THE FUNCTIONS CONTAINED IN, OR SERVICES PERFORMED OR PROVIDED THEREBY, WILL DELIVER SPECIFIC RESULTS OR MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, PROVIDE UNINTERRUPTED USE, OPERATE WITHOUT DELAY OR WITHOUT ERROR, OR THAT DEFECTS IN SOFTWARE WILL BE CORRECTED. NEITHER COPELAND NOR ITS AFFILIATES, SUPPLIERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR CONTRACTORS WARRANT THAT ANY COMMUNICATIONS WILL BE TRANSMITTED IN UNCORRUPTED FORM OR WILL WORK PROPERLY WHEN USED WITH A THIRD-PARTY CONTROL DEVICE. NO ORAL OR WRITTEN INFORMATION OR ADVICE GIVEN BY COPELAND OR ITS AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE SHALL CREATE A WARRANTY. SHOULD THE SOFTWARE PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE ENTIRE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR, OR CORRECTION.
If you are using the Software on an Apple iOS device, in the event of any failure of the Software to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price for the Software to you, but to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple will have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the Software, and any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, or expenses attributable to any failure to conform to any warranty will be Copeland’s sole responsibility.
Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL COPELAND OR ITS AFFILIATES BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES FOR ANY CAUSE OF ACTION, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUES, AND LOST BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES, WHETHER COPELAND WAS OR SHOULD HAVE BEEN AWARE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF THESE DAMAGES. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL COPELAND AND ITS AFFILIATES’ TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL DAMAGES (OTHER THAN AS MAY BE REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW IN CASES INVOLVING PERSONAL INJURY) EXCEED THE AMOUNT OF FIFTY DOLLARS ($50). THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS WILL APPLY EVEN IF THE ABOVE STATED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
BY ACCEPTING THIS AGREEMENT, AND TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU WAIVE ALL CLAIMS AGAINST COPELAND FOR INTERFERENCE, DISRUPTION, OR INCOMPATIBILITY BETWEEN THE SERVICES AND ANY OTHER SERVICES, SYSTEMS, OR EQUIPMENT. IN THE EVENT OF SUCH INTERFERENCE, DISRUPTION, OR INCOMPATIBILITY, YOUR SOLE REMEDY SHALL BE TO TERMINATE THE SERVICES.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this EULA, you acknowledge and understand that we may use third parties to provide components of the Services, including without limitation their services, equipment, infrastructure, or content. Copeland is not responsible for the performance (or non-performance) of third-party services, equipment, infrastructure, or content, whether or not they constitute components of the Services. Copeland shall not be bound by any undertaking, representation or warranty made by an agent or employee of Copeland or our underlying third-party providers and suppliers in connection with the installation, maintenance, or provision of the Services, if that undertaking, representation, or warranty is inconsistent with the terms of this EULA. In addition, you understand that you will have access to the services and content of third parties through the Services, including without limitation that of content providers (whether or not accessible directly from the Services). Copeland is not responsible for any services, equipment, infrastructure, and content that are not provided by us (even if they are components of the Services or recommended by us), and we shall have no liability with respect to such services, equipment, infrastructure, and content.

This EULA shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. Both parties are acting as independent contractors with respect to the activities hereunder and this EULA is not intended to create a joint venture, association, partnership, franchise, principal/agent relationship, or other form of business or relationship. No party will have, nor hold itself out as having, any right, power, or authority to assume, create, or incur any expense, liability, or obligation, express or implied, on behalf of the other party or to act on behalf of the other party in any capacity or in any manner.
This EULA and any other documents incorporated by reference constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this EULA, and they replace any and all prior written or verbal agreements. If any portion of this EULA is held to be unenforceable, the unenforceable portion shall be construed in accordance with applicable law as nearly as possible to reflect the original intentions of the parties, and the remainder of the provisions shall remain in full force and effect. If Copeland fails to insist upon or enforce strict performance of any provision of this EULA, it shall not thereby waive any provision or right. Neither the course of conduct between the parties nor trade practice shall act to modify any provision of this EULA. The language of this EULA shall be construed as a whole, according to its fair meaning and intent, and not strictly for or against either party, regardless of who drafted or was principally responsible for drafting this or any specific terms or conditions hereof.
Nothing contained in this EULA shall be construed to limit Copeland's rights and remedies available at law or in equity. Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, Copeland reserves the right to delete all your data, files, electronic messages, or other User Data that is stored on Copeland’s or its suppliers' servers or systems.

Dispute Resolution
The terms of this section entitled “Dispute Resolution” will apply to all disputes that may arise out of, are connected with or relate to this EULA or the Software, subject only to the following two exceptions: (1) if Copeland reasonably believes that you or any of your Additional Users have in any manner acted or failed to act in any manner that may cause harm to Copeland or any third party, Copeland may seek injunctive or other appropriate relief in any court of competent jurisdiction; or (2) any dispute may, at the option of the claiming party, be resolved in small claims court provided that all claims by all parties in the dispute fall within the jurisdiction of the small claims court but subject to the informal resolution in subsection (i) below. The validity, interpretation and performance of this EULA shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Delaware. Furthermore, in no event will the terms of this section limit Copeland’s ability to investigate complaints or reported violations of this EULA or to take any action Copeland deems necessary and appropriate to mitigate actions against Copeland, including reporting any suspected unlawful activity to law enforcement officials, regulators, or other third parties.
i. Informal Resolution. If you have any dispute with Copeland or any related third party, arising out of, relating to, or connected with the Software, you agree to contact Copeland, at the address noted below; provide a brief, written description of the dispute and your contact information (including your username, if your dispute relates to an account); and give Copeland thirty (30) days within which to resolve the dispute to your satisfaction. If Copeland does not resolve the dispute through good faith negotiations under this informal process, you may pursue the dispute in accordance with the arbitration agreement below or in small claims court as described above.
ii. Class Action Waiver. YOU HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT YOU MAY HAVE TO A COURT OR TO SERVE AS A REPRESENTATIVE, AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, OR IN ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY, OR TO PARTICIPATE AS A MEMBER OF A CLASS OF CLAIMANTS, IN ANY LAWSUIT, ARBITRATION OR OTHER PROCEEDING AGAINST US OR RELATED THIRD PARTIES ARISING OUT OF, RELATING TO, OR CONNECTED WITH THIS EULA; ARBITRATION CAN THUS DECIDE ONLY YOUR INDIVIDUAL CLAIMS; THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN THE CLAIMS OF OTHER PERSONS OR PARTIES WHO MAY BE SIMILARLY SITUATED.
iii. Arbitration Agreement. Any claims by Copeland, or claims by you that are not resolved by the informal resolution procedure or in small claims court as provided above, arising out of, relating to, or connected with this EULA or this Software must be asserted individually in binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules and Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes (including utilizing desk, phone, or video conference proceedings where appropriate and permitted to mitigate costs of travel). This EULA and each of its parts evidence a transaction involving interstate commerce, and the Federal Arbitration Act (9 USC §1, et. seq.) will apply in all cases and govern the interpretation and enforcement of the arbitration rules and arbitration proceedings. The arbitration shall be held at a location determined by AAA pursuant to the Rules and Procedures (provided such location is reasonably convenient for you), or at such other location as may be mutually agreed by the you and Copeland. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. In addition to and notwithstanding the terms stated above, the following will apply to your dispute(s): (1) the arbitrator, and not any federal, state, provincial or local court or agency, will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this EULA including any claim that all or any part of this EULA is void or voidable; (2) the arbitrator will not have the power to conduct any form of class or collective arbitration nor join or consolidate claims by or for individuals; (3) the arbitrator's decision shall be controlled by the terms and conditions of this EULA and any of the other agreements referenced herein that you may have entered into in connection with the Services; (4) the arbitrator shall apply Delaware law consistent with the FAA and applicable statutes of limitations, and shall honor claims of privilege recognized at law; (5) to the extent permitted by law, the arbitrator shall not have the power to award punitive, incidental or consequential damages against you or Copeland; (6) in the event that the administrative fees and deposits that must be paid to initiate arbitration against Copeland exceed $125 USD for claims less than $10,000 or $375 for claims greater than $10,000 but less than $75,000, and you are unable (or not required under the applicable Rules and Procedures) to pay any fees and deposits that exceed this amount, Copeland agrees to pay them and/or forward them on your behalf, subject to ultimate allocation by the arbitrator. In addition, if you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Copeland will pay as much of the your filing and hearing fees in connection with the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive; and (7) with the exception of subpart (3) above, if any part of this arbitration provision is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, or otherwise conflicts with the Rules and Procedures established by AAA, then the balance of this arbitration provision shall remain in effect and shall be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, illegal or conflicting provision were not contained herein. If, however, subpart (3) is found to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, then the entirety of this subsection (iii) Arbitration Agreement shall be null and void, and neither you nor Copeland shall be entitled to arbitrate their dispute. For more information on AAA and/or AAA Rules and Procedures, you may visit the AAA website at http://www.adr.org.
