THE FOLLOWING DESCRIBES THE TERMS ON WHICH TAGLOCITY OFFERS YOU ACCESS TO OUR WEBSITE, PLATFORM, SOFTWARE, TOOLS, AND SERVICES:

Welcome to Taglocity. We provide our websites (including www.taglocity.com and https://groups.taglocity.com and https://teamfeed.cc), platforms, software, tools, and services (together, the "Services") to you subject to the terms of service set forth in this Online Terms of Service Agreement (the "Agreement"). A statement of our privacy policy may be found at http://www.taglocity.com/privacy.html.

Note: Prior to July 1st 2009, TeamFeed was known as Taglocity Groups.  This Terms of Service Agreement applies to both services and any reference to TeamFeed applies to Taglocity Groups equally.

We may update the Agreement at any time. When we do, we will revise the "Revision date" at the top of this Agreement, and you may view the most recent version at http://www.taglocity.com/termsofservice.html. It is your responsibility to review the most recent version of the Agreement frequently and remain informed about any changes to it. By continuing to use the Services, you consent to any updates to this Agreement. This version of the Agreement supersedes all earlier versions, and comprises the entire agreement between you and Taglocity regarding the Services. By accessing or using the Services, you accept this Agreement and any modifications that we may make to this Agreement from time to time. If you do not agree to any provision of this Agreement, you should not use the Services.

1. Services

Our Services provides our users with a variety of resources to facilitate collaboration via email, information sharing, knowledge transfer, expertise discovery, and organizing of groups (a "TeamFeed or Taglocity Group").

You agree to comply with all applicable domestic and international laws, statutes, ordinances and regulations regarding your use of our Services, including without limitation your participation in or involvement with any TeamFeed Group. You also agree to comply with all applicable laws, statutes, ordinances and regulations regarding the transmission of technical data exported from the United States, Canada, or the country in which you reside.

2. Membership

2.1 Eligibility. Our Services are available to all individuals who are at least 18 years of age. Our Services are not available to any temporarily or indefinitely suspended Taglocity users. By creating a TeamFeed account, you are registering to use our Services, and you represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years of age. Additional eligibility requirements for a particular TeamFeed Group may be set by the administrator (or his/her designee) of the TeamFeed Group (an "Administrator").

We have the right, in our sole discretion, to suspend or terminate your use of our Services and refuse any and all current or future use of all or any portion of our Services.

2.2 Password and Security. When you complete our registration process you will create a password that will enable you to access our Services. You agree to maintain the confidentiality of your password, and are fully responsible for all liability and damages resulting from your failure to maintain that confidentiality and all activities that occur through the use of your password. You agree to immediately notify us of any unauthorized use of your password or any other breach of security. You agree that Taglocity cannot and will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this Section 2.2.

3. Fees and Payments

3.1 General. Access to our website and use of selected features of our Services is free. We may charge fees for various premium features and services that we offer, and we will notify you of those charges at the time that we offer you the premium features or services. We may, in our sole discretion, and by notifying you on our website, change this policy and begin charging for access to our website and other features and services, and we may, in our sole discretion, add, remove or change the features and services we offer or the fees (including the amount or the type of fees) we charge at any time. If we introduce a new service, we will establish and notify you of the fees for that service at the launch of the service. If we notify you of new fees or change the fees for an existing service, you agree to pay all fees and charges specified and all applicable taxes for your continued use of the applicable service. We are not responsible for any charges or expenses you incur resulting from being billed by us in accordance with these Terms of Service (e.g., overdrawn accounts, exceeding account limits, etc.).

3.2 Taglocity User and Data Storage Fees. Administrators are responsible for the payment of TeamFeed Group fees for each TeamFeed Group that they organize beyond the limitations of the free Services which include data storage greater than 1 GB per TeamFeed Group, and 15 members per TeamFeed Group. TeamFeed Group fees are paid through the subscription (“Group Fee Subscriptions”) to Taglocity's website hosting services for TeamFeed. Administrators who allow their subscription to lapse are subject to removal as the Administrator of the TeamFeed Group that they run, and their TeamFeed Group may be terminated or transferred to another Administrator. Group Fee Subscriptions are billed, as elected by the member, on either a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, or annual recurring basis and are payable in advance of the subscription period with no refunds, except as set forth in Section 3.5 below. Group Fee Subscriptions are non-transferable. By purchasing a Group Fee Subscription, you authorize us to keep your subscription current by charging your credit card the monthly subscription fee and all applicable taxes until you discontinue your Group Fee Subscription. To discontinue future billings of your subscription, follow the 'Profile' link displayed on each website page when you are signed in. We reserve the right to limit the number of TeamFeed accounts that may be charged to a particular credit card or other account ADMINISTRATORS ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT RECEIPT OF ANY FEE FROM ANY THIRD PARTY IS A THIRD PARTY TRANSACTION BETWEEN YOU AND SUCH THIRD PARTY, AND THAT YOU BEAR ALL RISK IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR THIRD PARTY TRANSACTIONS. If you believe that any accounting by a Third Party is in error, you must contact such other Third Party, and not Taglocity, to seek resolution. Your correspondence or business dealings with any Third Party, and any other terms, conditions, warranties or representations associated with such dealings, are solely between you and such Third Party.

3.4 Promotions; Coupon Codes; Group Sponsorships. We may from time to time offer promotions where we may discount or waive certain fees. We may offer coupon codes as a mechanism for processing a discount or credit. Coupon codes have no cash value, are not retroactive, and unless specified, are non-transferable and expire within 30 days of date of issue.

3.6 Consent to Disclosure. You acknowledge and agree that Taglocity may disclose Your Information (as defined in Section 4) if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such disclosure is reasonably necessary to:(a) comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process served on us or our website, (b) enforce this Agreement, (c) respond to claims that Your Information violates the rights of third parties; (d) protect the rights, property or personal safety of Taglocity, its employees, users and the public; or (e) enable the transfer or sale to another entity of all or substantially all of our stock or assets in the line of business to which this Agreement relates, or upon any other corporate reorganization, subject to the promises made in this Agreement.

13. Dispute Resolution

13.1 Process. The parties will attempt in good faith to resolve through negotiation any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement including the documents it incorporates by reference, your use of our Services, Your Information, or your violation of any law or the rights of a third party. In the event that the dispute, claim or controversy is not resolved by these negotiations, the matter will be submitted to Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (a.k.a. "JAMS"), or its successor, for mediation pursuant to Section 13.3, and if the matter is not resolved through mediation, then it shall be submitted to JAMS, or its successor, for final and binding arbitration pursuant to Section 13.4. Nonetheless, legal action taken by Taglocity to collect any fees and/or recover damages for, or obtain an injunction relating to, our website operations, intellectual property or our Services, shall not be submitted to mediation or arbitration except as otherwise agreed to in writing by Taglocity. In addition, either you or Taglocity may seek any interim or preliminary relief from a Court of competent jurisdiction in Vancouver, BC necessary to protect the rights or property of you or Taglocity pending the completion of arbitration.

13.2 Negotiation. Either party may initiate negotiations by providing written notice in letter form to the other party, setting forth the subject of the dispute and the relief requested. The recipient of such notice will respond in writing within fifteen (15) business days with a statement of its position on and recommended solution to the dispute. If the dispute is not resolved by this exchange of correspondence, then representatives of each party with full settlement authority will meet in person or otherwise at a mutually agreeable time and place within thirty (30) business days of the date of the initial notice in order to exchange relevant information and perspectives, and to attempt to resolve the dispute.

13.3 Mediation. Either party may commence mediation by providing to JAMS and the other party a written request for mediation, setting forth the subject of the dispute and the relief requested. The parties will cooperate with JAMS and with one another in selecting a mediator from JAMS' panel of neutrals, and in scheduling the mediation proceedings. The parties agree that they will participate in the mediation in good faith, and that they will share equally in its costs. All offers, promises, conduct and statements, whether oral or written, made in the course of the mediation by any of the parties, their agents, employees, experts and attorneys, and by the mediator or any JAMS employees, are confidential, privileged and inadmissible for any purpose, including impeachment, in any arbitration or other proceeding involving the parties, provided that evidence that is otherwise admissible or discoverable shall not be rendered inadmissible or non-discoverable as a result of its use in the mediation. Either party may initiate arbitration with respect to the matters submitted to mediation by filing a written demand for arbitration at any time following the initial mediation session or forty-five (45) days after the date of filing the written request for mediation, whichever occurs first. The mediation may continue after the commencement of arbitration if the parties so desire. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, the mediator shall be disqualified from serving as arbitrator in the case.

13.4 Arbitration. The parties agree that any and all disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement that are not resolved by their mutual agreement by negotiation or mediation under Sections 13.2 and 13.3 shall be submitted to final and binding arbitration before JAMS, or its successor. Either party may commence the arbitration process called for in this Agreement by filing a written demand for arbitration with JAMS, with a copy to the other party. The arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the provisions of JAMS' Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures in effect at the time of filing of the demand for arbitration. The parties will cooperate with JAMS and with one another in selecting an arbitrator from JAMS' panel of neutrals, and in scheduling the arbitration proceedings. The parties covenant that they will participate in the arbitration in good faith, and that they will share equally in its costs.

13.5 Enforcement. The provisions of Sections 13.3 and 13.4 may be enforced by any Court of competent jurisdiction, and the party seeking enforcement shall be entitled to an award of all costs, fees and expenses, including attorneys fees, to be paid by the party against whom enforcement is ordered.

13.6 Notice; Waiver. By agreeing to this Agreement you have, except as otherwise specified in Section 13.1, all disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement decided by negotiation, neutral mediation and/or neutral arbitration as provided in this Section 13, and you are giving up any rights you might possess to have those matters litigated in a court or jury trial. Also, by agreeing to this Agreement you are giving up your judicial rights to discovery and appeal except to the extent that they are specifically provided for under this Agreement. If you refuse to submit to arbitration after agreeing to this provision, you may be compelled to arbitrate under federal or state law. Your agreement to this arbitration provision is voluntary.

13.7 Dispute Resolution By Taglocity for the Benefit of Users. We may try to help TeamFeed Group members resolve disputes. We do so in our sole discretion, and we have no obligation to try to resolve disputes between users. To the extent we attempt to resolve disputes, we will do so in good faith based solely on the general rules and standards of the Services, and we will not make judgments regarding legal issues or claims.
