IN ADDITION, YOU AGREE THAT Cloud68.co OÜ IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DATA COMPILED BY OUR SERVICES AND THAT Cloud68.co OÜ WILL NOT BE LIABLE, IN ANY MANNER, AS A RESULT OF YOUR EXPOSURE TO ANY DEFAMATORY, LIBELOUS, THREATENING, UNLAWFULLY HARASSING, OBSCENE OR OTHERWISE UNLAWFUL CONTENT OR DATA.

9. Confidentiality

9.1 Subscriber shall keep confidential any confidential information to which it is given access, and shall cooperate with Cloud68.co OÜ’s efforts to maintain the confidentiality thereof. Subscriber shall not publish to third parties or distribute information or documentation that Cloud68.co OÜ provides for purposes of operating and maintaining its systems, including material contained in estimates, invoices, work orders, or other such materials.

In other words, please make sure not to share confidential information shared with you from our team.

10. Backup(s)

10.1 We keep encrypted backups of your data hosted in your instance on our providers described at section 5. on a frequency described in the each dedicated Instance page and more specifically based on the package you choose when you subscribed to our service. At the most fundamental level, we have 3 tiers of client plans for backups:

• Starter packages have weekly backups;
• Medium+ packages have daily backups;
• packages might have hourly, daily or weekly backups, depending on the subscribers needs and requests.
  10.2 Backups frequency: frequencies for data backups are based on the plan that the user purchases (otherwise known as ‘Packages’) and always taken at the end of the frequency. For Starter packages (weekly backups), data backups are always taken on 23:00 Sunday (based on the timezone of the Subscriber). For Medium+ packages (daily backups), data backups are taken every day at 23:00 o’clock (based on the timezone of the Subscriber).
  10.3 Backups retention: Although we work intensively do our best to make sure that there is no data loss from our side, there might be cases where backups might not work as planned due to a variety of factors. We consider these to be rare cases, but in any case we strongly advice that you also take backups of your data regularly for each and every one of your instances. If you don’t have the knowledge to do this process you can contact or support team by visiting one of the pages in our website in the ‘Get help’ sub-menu’ in the footer of our website or just schedule a call with our support team.

In other words, we take the extra mile to make sure that backups work, but legally we also trust that you’ll be responsible and back up your own data, because unfortunately things happen! We are available to help you backing up your data regularly. Just ask us.

11. Publicity

11.1 Each Subscriber is permitted to state publicly that such Subscriber is a Subscriber of the Services. Subject to Cloud68.co OÜ’s Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, each Subscriber agrees that Cloud68.co OÜ may include such Subscriber’s name and trademarks in a list of Cloud68.co OÜ Subscriber, online or in promotional materials. Each Subscriber also agrees that Cloud68.co OÜ may verbally reference such Subscriber as a Subscriber of the Services. Subscriber may opt out of the provisions in this Section 11.1 by e-mailing a request to office (at) cloud68 (dot) co.

In other words, we’re proud to have the quality of customers that we do. If it comes up, we may mention you!

12. Indemnification

12.1 YOU SHALL DEFEND, INDEMNIFY, AND HOLD HARMLESS US, OUR AFFILIATES, PARENTS, SUBSIDIARIES, ANY RELATED COMPANIES, LICENSORS AND PARTNERS, AND EACH OF OUR AND THEIR RESPECTIVE EMPLOYEES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, AGENTS, CONTRACTORS, DIRECTORS, SUPPLIERS AND REPRESENTATIVES FROM ALL LIABILITIES, CLAIMS, AND EXPENSES, INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES, THAT ARISE FROM OR RELATE TO YOUR (OR ANY THIRD PARTY USING YOUR ACCOUNT OR IDENTITY IN THE SERVICES) USE OR MISUSE OF, OR ACCESS TO, THE SERVICES, CONTENT, OR OTHERWISE FROM YOUR USER CONTENT, VIOLATION OF THESE TERMS OF SERVICE OR OF ANY LAW, OR INFRINGEMENT OF ANY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OR OTHER RIGHT OF ANY PERSON OR ENTITY. 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.

In other words, if, for example, you’re angry with someone for something they write on a website or/and instance that’s hosted on our Website (cloud68.co), we can’t be held responsible for what they say or do.

13. Termination and Access

13.1 We reserve 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 these Terms of Service 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 and or software Instances. We may provide prior notice of the intent to terminate Services to you if such notice will not, in Cloud68.co OÜ’s discretion, run counter to the intents and purposes of these Terms of Service. Except as otherwise set forth hereunder, any and all fees paid hereunder are non-refundable and any and all fees owed to Cloud68.co OÜ before such termination shall be immediately due and payable, including any liabilities that may have been incurred prior to termination such as our 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 which by their nature should survive termination shall survive termination, including, without limitation, licenses of User Content, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnity and limitations of liability.

In other words, if you violate these Terms of Service, 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 without reason at any time.

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

14.1 Any claim arising hereunder shall be construed in accordance with the substantive and procedural laws of Estonia, without regard to principles of conflict of laws. Subject to Section 15 below, you agree that any dispute arising from or relating to the subject matter of these Terms of Service shall be governed by the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Estonian courts. 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 Estonian.

15. Dispute Resolution

15.1 Mindful of the high cost of litigation, you and Cloud68.co OÜ 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 Cloud68.co OÜ (“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 Cloud68.co OÜ at: Lõõtsa tn 5, 11415 Tallinn, Estonia. 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 Cloud68.co OÜ 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.

In other words, we truly hope that we never have to enter into litigation with our subscribers and we imagine that most people feel the same way. If it gets to that point, we’ll agree to discuss it and figure out a solution, first.

16. Mandatory Arbitration Agreement and Class Action Waiver

16.1 In the interest of resolving disputes between you and Cloud68.co OÜ in the most expedient and cost effective manner, you and Cloud68.co OÜ 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 Cloud68.co OÜ ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
16.2 Despite the provisions of Section 16.1, 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 national 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.
16.3 Any arbitration between you and Cloud68.co OÜ will be settled under the relative law of Estonia.
16.4 A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified Estonian post Mail (signature required) or, only if such other party has not provided a current physical address, then by electronic mail (“Notice”). Cloud68.co OÜ’s address for Notice is: Cloud68.co OÜ, Lõõtsa tn 5, 11415 Tallinn, Estonia. 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 Cloud68.co OÜ may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Cloud68.co OÜ 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, Cloud68.co OÜ 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 Cloud68.co OÜ in settlement of the dispute prior to the arbitrator’s award; or (iii) 1,000€.
16.5 If you commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms, Cloud68.co OÜ will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than 5,000€. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in Tallinn, Estonia, but if the claim is for 5,000€ or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (i) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; or (ii) through a non-appearance based telephone or internet call hearing. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose, you agree to reimburse Cloud68.co OÜ for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under Estonian law. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
16.6 YOU AND Cloud68.co OÜ 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 Cloud68.co OÜ 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.
16.7 If Cloud68.co OÜ makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to Cloud68.co OÜ’s address for Notice, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to Cloud68.co OÜ’s address for Notice, in which case your account with Cloud68.co OÜ will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected will survive.
16.8 If Section 16.6 is found to be unenforceable or if the entirety of this Section 15 is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 15 will be null and void and, in that case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 13 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.

In other words, if we can’t work it out, let’s avoid spending a lot of money in court and agree to pay an arbitrator for a fraction of the cost instead.

17. Miscellaneous Provisions

17.1 Neither you nor Cloud68.co OÜ shall be liable for nonperformance of the terms herein to the extent that either you or Cloud68.co OÜ are prevented from performing as a result of any act or event which occurs and is beyond your or Cloud68.co OÜ’s reasonable control, including, without limitation, acts of war, unrest or riot, strikes, any action of a governmental entity, weather, quarantine, pandemic, 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. The party experiencing the force majeure shall provide the other party with prompt written notice thereof and shall use reasonable efforts to remedy effects of such force majeure.
17.2 You are granted a limited, non-exclusive right to create a hypertext link to the Website found at cloud68.co; provided such link does not portray Cloud68.co OÜ and/or its affiliates or any of their respective products and services in a false, misleading, derogatory or otherwise defamatory manner. This limited right may be revoked at any time. You may not use, frame or utilize framing techniques to enclose any Cloud68.co OÜ trademark, logo or other proprietary information, including the images found at the Website, the content of any text or the layout/design of any page or form contained on a page without Cloud68.co OÜ’s express written consent. Except as noted above, you are not conveyed any right or license by implication, estoppel, or otherwise in or under any patent, trademark, copyright, or proprietary right of Cloud68.co OÜ or any third party.
17.3 The Website contains many of the valuable trademarks, service marks, names, titles, logos, images, designs, copyrights and other proprietary materials owned, registered and used by Cloud68.co OÜ, but not limited to, the mark “ Cloud68.co OÜ”. Cloud68.co OÜ and the Cloud68.co OÜ product names (such as cloud68.co) referenced in the Website are either trademarks, service marks or registered trademarks of Cloud68.co OÜ. Any unauthorized use of same is strictly prohibited and all rights in same are reserved by Cloud68.co OÜ.

17.4 Elements of Cloud68.co OÜ’s Website are protected by trade dress, trademark, unfair competition, and other local and international laws and may not, unless otherwise permitted hereunder, be copied in whole or in part. No logo, graphic, or image from the Website may be copied or retransmitted without Cloud68.co OÜ’s express written permission unless these materials are licensed in a permissive Creative Commons license or are noted by Cloud68.co OÜ as public domain. The images, text, screens, web pages, materials, data, Content and other information used and displayed on the Website are the property of Cloud68.co OÜ or its licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark and other laws. In addition to our rights in individual elements of the Website, Cloud68.co OÜ owns copyright or patent rights in the selection, coordination, arrangement and enhancement of any images, text, screens, web pages, materials, data, Content and other information used and displayed on the Website. You may copy such images, text, screens, web pages, materials, data, Content and other information used and displayed on the Website for your personal or educational use only, provided that each copy includes any copyright, trademark or service mark notice or attribution as they appear on the pages copied. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, none of such images, text, screens, web pages, materials, data, Content and other information used and displayed on the Website may be copied, displayed, distributed, downloaded, licensed, modified, published, reposted, reproduced, reused, sold, transmitted, used to create a derivative work or otherwise used for public or commercial purposes without the express written permission of Cloud68.co OÜ.
17.5 This Agreement, including all related agreements and policies incorporated by reference herein, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties related to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior or contemporaneous agreement between the parties relating to the Services. A valid waiver hereunder shall not be interpreted to be a waiver of that obligation in the future or any other obligation under this Agreement. The failure of either party to exercise in any respect any right provided for herein shall not be deemed a waiver of any further rights hereunder. In order for any waiver of compliance with these Terms of Service to be binding, we must provide you with written notice of such waiver through one of our authorized representatives. If any provision of this Agreement is prohibited by law or held to be unenforceable, that provision will be severed and the remaining provisions hereof shall not be affected such that this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as if such unenforceable provision had never constituted a part hereof. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute the same instrument. This Agreement may be signed electronically or, as set out above, your access and use of the Services will manifest your consent to this Agreement. These Terms of Service are personal to you, and are not assignable, transferable or sublicensable by you except with our prior written consent. We may assign, transfer or delegate any of our rights and obligations hereunder without consent. No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment relationship is created as a result of these Terms of Service and neither party has any authority of any kind to bind the other in any respect. The section and paragraph headings in these Terms of Service are for convenience only and shall not affect their interpretation. All references to “laws,” “rules,” or “regulations” references any and all applicable laws, rules and regulations, whether domestic or foreign. Unless otherwise specified in these Terms of Service, all notices under these Terms of Service will be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given when received, if personally delivered or sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested; when receipt is electronically confirmed, if transmitted by facsimile or e-mail; or the day after it is sent, if sent for next day delivery by recognized overnight delivery service. Electronic notices should be sent to office (at) cloud68 (dot) com.

In other words, neither you nor us can be held responsible for non-performance of these terms given circumstances outside of reasonable control (e.g. extreme weather, natural disasters, telecommunications outages, Internet disturbances, a zombie apocalypse… you get the idea).
