Thanks for using the Auxo Care Product. These Auxo Care Terms of Service (these “Terms”) describe your rights and responsibilities as a customer of our products. As applicable to the specific product, if you are being invited or added to a product set up by an Auxo Care customer, the user notice governs your access and use of the product (and not these Terms). These terms are between you and the Auxo Care entity that owns or operates the Auxo Care Home Care product that you are using or accessing listed here (“Auxo Care Solutions LLC,” “Auxo Care,” “we” or “us”). “You” means the entity you represent in accepting these terms or, if that does not apply, you individually. If you are accepting on behalf of your employer or another entity, you represent and warrant that (i) you have the full legal authority to bind your employer or such entity to these terms; (ii) you have read and understood these terms; and (iii) you agree to these terms on behalf of the party that you represent. If you don’t have the legal authority to bind your employer or the applicable entity, please do not click “I agree” (or a similar button or checkbox) that is presented to you. IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS, YOU MAY NOT ACCESS OR USE THIS SITE
Please note that if you sign up using an email address from your employer or another entity, then (a) you will be deemed to represent such party, (b) your click to accept will bind your employer or that entity to these terms, and (c) the word “you” in these terms will refer to your employer or that entity.
These terms are effective as of the date you first click “I agree” (or a similar button or checkbox) or use or access the Auxo Care Homecare Product, whichever is earlier (the “Effective Date”). These terms do not have to be signed to be binding. You indicate your assent to these terms by clicking “I agree” (or similar button or checkbox) at the time you register for an Auxo Care Product and create an Auxo Care account.

Account Registration and Administration.
Account Registration. To register for the service for the first time, you shall create an account with the service. By creating an account (“Account”) and registering to the service, you become, either individually or on behalf of your employer or any entity on behalf of whom you created the Account, an Auxo Care customer (the “Customer”). The first user of the Account is automatically assigned as the Account administrator (the “Owner”).

When creating an Account or when you are added to an Account and creating your user profile (the “User Profile”), you : (i) agree to provide us with accurate, complete, and current registration information about yourself; (ii) acknowledge that it is your responsibility to ensure that your password remains confidential and secure; (iii) agree that you are fully responsible for all activities that occur under your User Profile and password, including any integration or any other use of third party products or services (and associated disclosure of data) in connection with the service; and undertake to promptly notify us in writing if you become aware of any unauthorized access or use of your Account or User Profile and/or any breach of these terms. We may assume that any communications we receive under your User Profile have been made by you. Customer will be solely responsible and liable for any losses, damages, liability, and expenses incurred by us or a third party due to any unauthorized usage of the Account by either you or any other User or third party on your behalf.
User Verification. You understand and agree that we may require you to provide information that may be used to confirm your identity and help ensure the security of your Account and/or User Profile. If you or the admin lose access to an Account or otherwise request information about an Account, we reserve the right to request from you or such Admin (as the case may be) any verification we deem necessary before restoring access to or providing information about such Account.
Account Admins (Owner).The admin(s) of an account are, severally and jointly, deemed as the authorized representatives of the customer, and any decision or action made by any Admin is deemed as a decision or action of the customer. An Admin may assign or add other members of the Account as Admins, which possess important privileges and controls over the use of the service and the Account, including, without limitation: (i) control your (and other Users’) use of the account; (ii) purchase, upgrade or downgrade the service; (ii) create, monitor or modify Users’ actions and permissions; (iii) manage the access to, control, remove, share posts or otherwise change, all or part of the Customer Data (as defined below); and (iv) integrate or disable integration with Third-Party Services. You also acknowledge that your account can become managed by a representative of the entity that owns or controls the email address domain with which your account was created or registered. You are responsible for taking the necessary steps to ensure that your organization does not lose control of the administrator accounts. You may specify a process to be followed for recovering control in the event of such loss of control of the administrator accounts by emailing support@auxocare.com, provided that the process is acceptable to Auxo Care. Without any specified administrator account recovery process, Auxo Care may provide control of an administrator account to an individual, providing proof satisfactory to Auxo Care and demonstrating authorization to act on behalf of the organization. You agree not to hold Auxo Care liable for the consequences of any action taken by Auxo Care in good faith in this regard.
Other Users:There are several types of Account users, such as guests, viewers, and team members, all of whom are defined within the service and referred to herein as “Authorized Users” and collectively with the Admin, the “Users.” The features and functionalities available to the Users are determined by the respective subscription plan governing such account, and the privileges of each such Authorized User are assigned and determined by the Account Admin(s). For more information on the rights, permissions, and definitions of each of the various types of Authorized Users, visit our Support Center.
Responsibility for Authorized Users.The customer is solely liable and responsible for understanding the settings, privileges, and controls for the service and for controlling whom the customer permits to become a User and what the settings and privileges for such User are, including, without limitation, the right for a User to invite other Users (either paid or unpaid), the right to incur charges on the Account, the right to access, modify, etc. You are responsible for i) ensuring confidentiality of your organization account password, ii) appointing competent individuals as administrators for managing your organization account, and iii) ensuring that all activities that occur in connection with your organization account comply with this Agreement. You understand that Auxo Care is not responsible for the administration and internal management of your services’ account. The customer is responsible for the activities of all of its Users, including how Users use the customer Data, even if those Users are not from the customer’s organization or domain. Further, Customer acknowledges that any action taken by a User of Customer’s Account is deemed by us as an authorized action by the Customer; hence, the Customer shall have no claim in this regard.

We reserve the right to fully or partially discontinue, at any time and from time to time, temporarily or permanently, any of the beta services with or without notice to you.

Anonymous Information (as defined below) is not regarded as customer data to avoid doubt. The customer retains all rights, title, interest, and control in and to the customer data in the form submitted to the service. Subject to these terms, the customer grants us a worldwide, royalty-free, limited license to access, use, process, copy, distribute, perform, export, and display the customer data, and solely to the extent that reformatting customer data for display in the service constitutes a modification or derivative work, the foregoing license also includes the right to make modifications and derivative works.

Subscription Term, Renewal, and Fee Payments
Auxo Care Order Form. Our order form may be completed and placed in various ways, including an online form, in-product screens, or any other mutually agreed-upon offline form delivered by the customer or any of the other Users to Auxo Care, including via mail, email, or any other electronic or physical delivery mechanism (the “Order Form”). Such an Order Form will list, at the minimum, the service ordered, subscription plan, term, and associated fees.
Subscription Term. The service is provided on a subscription basis for the term specified in your Order Form, in accordance with the respective subscription plan purchased under such Order Form (the “Subscription term” and the “Subscription Plan,” respectively, and collectively the “Subscription”).
Subscription Fees. In consideration for the provision of the service (except for Trial Service), the customer shall pay us the applicable fees per the purchased subscription, as set forth in the applicable Order Form (the “Subscription Fees”). Subscription fees are stated in US dollars. The customer hereby authorizes us, either directly or through our payment processing service, to charge such subscription fees via the customer’s selected payment method upon the due date. Unless expressly set forth herein, the subscription fees are non-cancellable and non-refundable. We reserve the right to change the Subscription Fees at any time, upon notice to the customer, if such change may affect the customer’s existing subscriptions upon renewal. In the event of failure to collect the Fees owed by the customer, we may, at our sole discretion (but shall not be obligated to), retry to collect later and/or suspend or cancel the Account without notice.
Taxes. The subscription fees are exclusive of any and all taxes (including, without limitation, value-added tax, sales tax, use tax, excise, goods and services tax, etc.), levies, or duties which may be imposed in respect of these terms and the purchase or sale, of the service hereunder (the “Taxes”), except for taxes imposed on our income. If the customer is located in a jurisdiction that requires the customer to deduct or withhold taxes or other amounts from any amounts due to us, please notify us in writing promptly, and we shall join efforts to avoid any such Tax withholding, provided, however, that in any case, the customer shall bear the sole responsibility and liability to pay such Tax and such Tax should be deemed as being added on top of the subscription fees, payable by the customer.
Billing.As part of registering or submitting billing information to the service, the customer agrees to provide us with updated, accurate, and complete billing information, and the customer authorizes us (either directly or through our affiliates, subsidiaries, or other third parties) to charge, request and collect payment (or otherwise charge, refund or take any other billing actions) from customer’s payment method or designated banking account, and to make any inquiries that we may consider necessary to validate customer’s designated payment account or financial information, to ensure prompt payment, including to receive updated payment details from customer’s credit card company or banking account (e.g., updated expiry date or card number as may be provided to us by customer’s credit card company).
Subscription Auto-Renewal.To ensure that the customer will not experience any interruption or loss of services, the customer’s subscription includes an automatic renewal option by default, according to which, unless the customer disables the auto-renewal option or cancels its subscription before its expiration, the subscription will automatically renew upon the end of the then applicable subscription term, for a renewal period equal in time to the original subscription term (excluding extended periods) and, unless otherwise notified to customer, at the same price (subject to applicable tax changes and excluding any discount or other promotional offer provided for the first subscription term). Accordingly, unless either the customer or Auxo Care cancels the subscription before its expiration, we will attempt to automatically charge the customer the applicable subscription fees upon or immediately before the expiration of the then applicable subscription term. If the customer wishes to avoid such auto-renewal, the customer shall cancel its subscription (or disable the auto-renewal option) before its expiration at any time through the Account settings or by contacting our customer success team. Except as expressly set forth in these terms, if a customer cancels their subscription during a subscription term, the subscription will not renew for an additional period, but the customer will not be refunded or credited for any unused period within the subscription term.
Refund Policy; Chargeback.
Refund Policy. If the customer is not satisfied with its initial service purchase, the customer may terminate such service by providing us a written notice within 30 days of having first ordered such services (the “Refund Period”). If the customer terminates such initial purchase of a service within the Refund Period, we will refund the customer the subscription fees paid in respect to such terminated subscription in the same currency we were originally paid (the “Refund”). The refund applies only to the customer’s initial purchase of the service and not to any additional purchases, upgrades, modifications, or renewals of such service. Please note that the refund amount may be different than the amount the customer was charged due to currency changes and third-party fees, such as wire transfer fees, and we shall not be responsible for any differences caused by changes in currency exchange rates or fees that customer was charged by third parties. After the Refund Period, the subscription fees are non-refundable and non-cancellable. To the extent permitted by law, if we find that a notice of cancellation has been given in bad faith or in an illegitimate attempt to avoid payment for services actually received and enjoyed, we reserve our right to reject the customer’s refund request.
Third Party Services. Third-party services may be offered free of charge or for a certain fee, either charged directly by the third-party service or by Auxo Care. Wherever the Third-Party Service requires a payment, it shall be indicated next to the offering of the Third-Party Service unless such price is included within the subscription plan for the service. Whenever Auxo Care charges a customer on behalf of itself and not as an agent on behalf of the Third-Party Service, the payment terms, including the payment of fees, renewal, and refund policy, are governed by the Refund and Chargeback policy mentioned herein. Whenever Auxo Care charges a customer on behalf of the Third-Party Services, the customer acknowledges that Auxo Care serves only as an intermediary in facilitating or collecting the applicable fees and taxes from the customer for the Third-Party Service. Thus, the Third-Party Agreement governs all payment-related issues, including the payment of fees, renewal, and refund policy.
