4. THE SERVICES
  • 4.1 Description. This Section governs your purchase of Services through this Site or in connection with an Order. All the Services offered via this Site are subject to availability and subscription prices for the Services are subject to change without notice at any time. All orders, quotations, or purchase orders for the Services (each, an “Order”) placed by you (whether on the Site or via Order form) are subject to acceptance by us. The Services are designed to provide each Customer with access to an online platform permitting such Customer to: (1) create surveys or request that Centiment create surveys on the Customer’s behalf; or (2) request that Centiment create certain survey questions, solicit certain survey responses, and deliver a target number of such survey responses and related data from a targeted audience. As further described in Section 4.3 below, Centiment may introduce targeted respondents to a third-party survey tool, as dictated by the researcher, via that tool’s survey URL. Centiment passes variables through the survey to identify respondents and then redirects them back to our Site through such variables in order to identify who has completed the survey in its entirety. All collected data is housed within the survey tool itself. Centiment also provides a project manager to assist with questions regarding the Services. Your dedicated project manager will test through all survey builds, whether programmed by a researcher or Centiment. Unless Centiment is hired to program a survey project, you agree that Centiment is not responsible for any build or setup errors. When an Order is placed by you for Services, Centiment grants you a nontransferable, nonexclusive, worldwide right to permit those individuals authorized by you or on your behalf, and who are your employees, agents or contractors, to access and use the Services subject to this Agreement. 
  • 4.2 Proprietary Information. We will keep confidential the subject and research goals of all survey’s conducted in connection with our Services in addition to keeping confidential any and all proprietary information contained within the survey itself, or as outlined in communications with the project manager. You retain ownership of the intellectual property rights in the contents of your survey and research (“Research Content”). Centiment does not claim ownership over your Research Content, the data we collect for you, or any data analysis/interpretation work. This Agreement does not grant Centiment any rights or licenses to your Research Content except for the limited rights needed for us to provide the Services, and as otherwise described in this Agreement. You acknowledge and agree that all Research Content shall be considered User Content for purposes of this Agreement, and shall remain subject to the same restrictions and limitations applicable to you, and all rights and remedies available for Centiment as set forth herein.
  • 4.3 Data Collection. Centiment’s Services may involve connecting researchers and their third-party survey tools to anonymous survey panelists who have agreed to provide their feedback against primarily closed-ended survey questions for quantitative studies. Because feedback and opinions can change, you agree to hold harmless Centiment for any decisions made based on the results of using our Services. When respondents are onboarded, Centiment profiles them with the sole intention of connecting qualified respondents with the correct surveys. Unless your survey is programmed and hosted in the Centiment survey tool, Centiment does not retain any data related to your survey; the data collected is retained by the third-party tool used to conduct the survey and is subject to that tool’s security measures. All data collected will be delivered, at minimum, via an Excel/CSV output. Centiment uses best efforts to collect data; however, if a target number of completed surveys is not reached clients will only be billed for those responses realized. Any disputes related to the quality of the data, or individual responses within the data set, must be raised within ten calendar days of the final data set being delivered.
  • 4.4 Text Messaging Services. Centiment’s Site and Services may offer include the ability to initiate Messages between you and third parties or individuals. “Message” means any text or email message sent to or received from an individual through Centiment’s Site or Services (each a “Recipient”). For clarity, “Message” does not include any communication sent or received outside Centiment’s Site or Services through your website, email accounts, or telephones and other electronic devices of yours and your employees and contractors. Customer shall obtain any consent or approval required to communicate with a Recipient at the time and in the manner required by Applicable Law. “Applicable Law” means all laws, ordinances, rules, and regulations governing such Customer’s duties or responsibilities under this Agreement, including without limitation, laws governing the protection of personally identifiable information and other laws applicable to employment, the U.S. CAN-SPAM Act, the U.S. Telephone Consumer Protection Act (“TCPA”), and any other applicable federal, state, local or foreign laws. Customer is solely responsible for any use of the Centiment Site and Service by Customer or its employees and agents, including any Message, and shall ensure that any Message, communication, process, action, or decision does not violate any Applicable Law. Customer shall, and shall ensure its employees and agents comply with all Applicable Law. Customer agrees that, as between Customer and Centiment, Centiment is a service provider facilitating communications between Customer and Recipients. Customer is the sole or designated “sender” (as such term is defined by the CAN-SPAM Act and the TCPA) of any Message sent through the Centiment Site or Services and that, therefore, Centiment is not a sender (as that term is associated with each of the foregoing laws) and bears no liability for any claims that Messages sent through the Centiment Site or Services by Customer or any party who Customer allows to use its accounts violates Applicable Law.

5. PAYMENT
  • 5.1 Service Purchasing.

Existing clients are required to pay any outstanding invoices within net 30 days from the date their invoice was delivered. New clients may be required to prepay ahead of Services being rendered. If any bank or other financial institution refuses to honor any payment of yours, we may charge you a fee up to the maximum amount permitted under Applicable Law and seek any other damages or remedies available. Fees paid by you are non-refundable, except as provided in these Terms of Use or when required by law.
  • 5.2 Managing Payment Method. When providing a Payment Method, our Provider may allow you to keep such Payment Method on file in order to facilitate future Orders (Centiment does not retain, store, or otherwise manage credit card information). If you want to use a different Payment Method than the one you signed up to use during registration or when you placed an Order, you may edit your Payment Method information by logging into your account management tools on this Site, which securely connects to our Provider. If your Payment Method expires and you do not edit your Payment Method information or cancel your account, we may reject your Order. If we do not reject your Order, you authorize us to charge you for any Product purchases you make, and you will remain responsible for any uncollected amounts.
  • 5.3 Taxes. You are responsible for, and agree to pay, all taxes, fees, and any other duties or surcharges set by any governmental agency or taxing authority. You agree to indemnify and hold Centiment harmless for any liability for taxes owed in connection with your purchase of the Services.

To the extent feasible, the parties desire to resolve any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to your use of or access to this Site or Centiment IP, this Agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity of this Agreement, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitration (a “Dispute”) through discussions and negotiations between each other. The parties agree to attempt to resolve any Disputes by negotiation with the other party (by phone, electronic correspondence, or written correspondence). If we are not able to resolve any Dispute ourselves, you and Centiment agree to resolve such Dispute through confidential binding arbitration as set forth below.
  • 9.3 Binding Arbitration. If you and Centiment are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, either you or Centiment may elect to have the Dispute (except those Disputes expressly excluded below) finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. Any election to arbitrate by one party shall be final and binding on the other. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and, where appropriate, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (“AAA Consumer Rules”) both of which are available at the AAA website www.adr.org. The determination of whether a Dispute is subject to arbitration shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and determined by a court rather than an arbitrator. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone or online. The arbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by a party. The arbitrator must follow Applicable Law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement you and Centiment may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceeding pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
  • 9.4 Waiver of Rights. You hereby agree that you understand the consequences of agreeing to binding arbitration under this Section, including giving up any constitutional rights to have the Dispute determined by a court of law or by a jury and any right that you may have under Applicable Law to have a trial de novo by a court after nonbinding arbitration of a dispute concerning fees or costs; that discovery of information in arbitration may be limited; and that the arbitration decision will be final and binding, except to the limited extent that judicial review might be available. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS. CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE INDIVIDUAL CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER INDIVIDUALS.
