CUSTOMER TERMS OF SERVICE
Last Modified: 2/24/2023
These Customer Terms of Service (these “Customer Terms”) describe your rights and responsibilities when using the mobile and/or web-based software platform, any application programming interface (“API”) made available by us, and related services (collectively the “Services”) offered by Entendre Finance (or its successors or assigns) (“we”, “our”, “Entendre” or “us”). If you are a Customer (defined below), these Customer Terms govern your access and use of our Services. These Customer Terms (or, if applicable, your written agreement with us) together with all documents referenced herein form the “Agreement” between Customer and us.
Please read these Customer Terms carefully to ensure you understand each provision. These Customer Terms contain a jury trial waiver provision and a mandatory arbitration provision.
If you subscribe to, or access or use the Services, create an organization, invite users to that organization, or use or allow use of that organization after being notified of a change to these Customer Terms, you acknowledge your understanding of the then-current Agreement and agree to the Agreement on behalf of Customer. Please make sure you have the necessary authority to enter into the Agreement on behalf of Customer before proceeding.
General Provisions
Customers, Authorized Users, and Customer Content
“Customer” or “you” is either you, if you are an individual entering into the Agreement on your own behalf, or the organization that you represent in agreeing to the Agreement. If your organization is being set up by someone who is not formally affiliated with a business entity or other organization, Customer is the individual creating the organization. If you signed up for a subscription plan using your corporate email domain or are otherwise entering into a subscription plan on behalf of a business entity or other organization, the business entity or other organization on whose behalf you signed up is the Customer. By signing up on behalf of your business entity or other organization, you represent and warrant that you have all right, power, and authority to bind such entity or organization to the Agreement.
Individuals authorized by Customer to access the Services (each an “Authorized User”) may submit content or information to the Services, which includes information about an identifiable individual (“Personal Data”) and User Content (defined below) (collectively with Personal Data, “Customer Content”), and Customer will have the sole right and responsibility for managing your use of it. Customer will be solely responsible for all of the acts and omissions of its Authorized Users in relation to the Services and the Agreement. The Services are not intended for and should not be used by anyone under the age of 13. Customer must ensure that all Authorized Users are over 13 years old.

Subscriptions
A subscription allows Customer and its Authorized Users to access the Services. A subscription may be procured through the Services dashboard interface, (the “Dashboard”). Subscriptions commence when we make them available to Customer and continue for the term specified in the Services or on the Dashboard, as applicable (the “Subscription Period”).
Beta Products
Occasionally, we look for beta testers to help us test our new features. These features will be identified as “beta” or “pre-release,” or words or phrases with similar meanings (each, a “Beta Product”). Beta Products are made available on an “as is,” and “as available” basis and, to the extent permitted under applicable law, without any warranties or contractual commitments we make for other Services.
Feedback
Customer and its Authorized Users may choose to, or we may invite them to, submit comments or ideas about the Services, including about how to improve the Services or our products (“Ideas”). By submitting any Idea, Customer agrees that its disclosure is gratuitous, unsolicited and without restriction and will not place us under any fiduciary or other obligation, and that we are free to use the Idea without any additional compensation, whether to Customer, the Authorized User, or anyone else, and/or to disclose the Idea on a non-confidential basis or otherwise to anyone. Customer further acknowledges that, by acceptance of the submission, we do not waive any rights to use similar or related Ideas previously known to us, or developed by our personnel, or obtained from sources other than Customer or its Authorized Users.
Privacy Policy and Protection of Personal Data
By using the Services, you understand and acknowledge that your personal information will be collected, used and disclosed as set forth in our Privacy Policy.
We care about the integrity and security of your personal information. However, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized third parties will never be able to defeat our security measures or use your personal information for improper purposes. You acknowledge that you provide your personal information at your own risk.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, Customer (for itself and all of its Authorized Users) grants us a worldwide, non-exclusive, limited term license to access, use, process, copy, distribute, perform, export and display Personal Data, only as reasonably necessary (i) to provide and maintain the Services; (ii) to prevent or address service, security, support or technical issues; (iii) as required by law; and (iv) as expressly permitted in writing by Customer.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Customer agrees that we may collect, analyze, use and disclose, during or after the Subscription Period, data derived from Personal Data, which is anonymized and/or aggregated in a manner, that makes the identification of Customer or any Authorized User or third party impossible, for any business purpose, including to operate, analyze, improve, and market the Services and our other products and services and share such anonymized data with our affiliates and business partners. Customer further agrees that we will have the perpetual right to use, store, transmit, distribute, modify, copy, display, sublicense, and create derivative works of such derived data.
4. License to User Content
With respect to that portion of Customer Content that consists of videos, images, music, comments, questions, documents, spreadsheets, and any other content submitted, posted, or otherwise made available by Customer and its Authorized Users through the Services (“User Content”), by submitting, posting, storing, or otherwise making such User Content available through the Services, Customer grants, and represents and warrants that it has all rights necessary to grant (including any necessary consents and authorizations from individual persons identified in the User Content and licenses from third-parties whose content is included in the User Content), to us a royalty-free, sublicensable, transferable, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, worldwide license to use, host, store, reproduce, modify, publish, list information regarding, translate, distribute, publicly perform, publicly display, and make derivative works of all such User Content, and the names, voice, and/or likeness contained in the User Content, in whole or in part, and in any form, media, or technology, whether now known or hereafter developed, solely for use in connection with our provision of the Services as described in the Agreement and our product Documentation.

6. Use of the Services
Customer must comply with the Agreement and ensure that its Authorized Users comply with the Agreement. We may review conduct for compliance purposes, but we have no obligation to do so. If we believe there is a violation of the Agreement that can be remedied by Customer’s removal of certain Customer Content, we will, in most cases, ask Customer to take direct action rather than intervene. However, to the extent legally permissible, we reserve the right to take further appropriate action, when we deem it reasonably appropriate if Customer does not take appropriate action, or if we believe there is a credible risk of harm to us, the Services, Authorized Users, or any third parties.
6. Free Trial Account and Services
We may, from time to time, offer a free trial, promotional offer, or other type of limited offer for use of all or part of our Entendre Dashboard (a “Free Trial”).

a. Payment Terms
For Customers that purchase a subscription to use our Services, fees are specified through the Dashboard— and must be paid in advance. Payment obligations are non-cancelable and, except as expressly stated in the Agreement, fees paid are non-refundable. For clarity, in the event Customer downgrades any subscriptions from a paid plan to a free plan, Customer will remain responsible for any unpaid fees under the paid plan, and Services under the paid plan will be deemed fully performed and delivered upon expiration of the initial Subscription Period. If we agree to invoice Customer by email, full payment must be received within thirty (30) days from the invoice date. Fees are stated exclusive of any taxes, levies, duties, or similar governmental assessments of any nature, including, for example, value-added, sales, use or withholding taxes, assessable by any jurisdiction (collectively, “Taxes”). Customer will be responsible for paying all Taxes associated with its purchases, except for those taxes based on our net income.
b. Billing Policies
If you elect to purchase a subscription to use our Services, or certain other paid aspects of the Services, Customer agrees to the pricing communicated to you by us. We may add new services for additional fees and charges, or add or amend fees and charges for existing Services, at any time in our sole discretion, by giving to the Customer at least 60 days’ written notice, such increase is to take effect at the beginning of the next billing cycle. If the Customer is unhappy with the increase, the Customer may give notice to terminate the Agreement, by giving at least 30 days’ written notice to us, such notice to expire no later than the end of the then-current billing cycle. The fees will not increase during the notice period; otherwise, any change to such pricing shall become effective in the billing cycle following notice of such change as provided under the Agreement.
c. Payment Information

You acknowledge and agree that we are not responsible for any breaches of credit card or other payment method security or privacy.
You represent and warrant that:
If any of your account, order, or payment method information changes, you agree to promptly update this information, so that we or Stripe may complete your transactions and contact you as needed.

THE AGREEMENT GRANTS SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, AND CUSTOMER AND AUTHORIZED USERS MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS THAT VARY FROM JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION. THE FOREGOING DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS WILL NOT APPLY TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
Indemnification
Customer agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless us and our affiliates, licensors, and suppliers, and our and their respective employees, contractors, agents, officers and directors, from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs or debt, and expenses (including attorney’s fees) arising from: (i) Customer’s and any Authorized User’s use of and access to the Services, including any Customer Content or other content transmitted or received by Customer or any Authorized User; (ii) your violation of any term of the Agreement, including any breach of Customer’s representations and warranties above; (iii) Customer’s or any Authorized User’s violation of any third-party right, including any right of privacy or intellectual property rights; (iv) Customer’s or any Authorized User’s violation of any applicable law, rule or regulation; (v) Customer Content or any content that is submitted via Customer’s or any Authorized User’s account, including misleading, false, or inaccurate information; (vi) Customer’s or any Authorized User’s gross negligence, fraud, or willful misconduct; or (vii) any other party’s access and use of the Services with Customer’s or any Authorized User’s unique username, password or other appropriate security code (provided that such access and use was not our fault).
Confidentiality
Definition
Each party (“Disclosing Party”) may disclose “Confidential Information” to the other party (“Receiving Party”) in connection with the Agreement, which is anything that reasonably should be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information and the circumstances of disclosure as well as non-public business, product, technology and marketing information. Confidential Information of Customer includes Customer Content. Confidential Information of Entendre includes any product information, screenshots, videos, or other audiovisual representations (collectively, “Audiovisual Representations”) of the Services. FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, YOU MAY NOT SHARE ANY AUDIOVISUAL REPRESENTATIONS OF THE SERVICES WITH ANY THIRD PARTY WITHOUT ENTENDRE’S PRIOR, WRITTEN CONSENT.
If something is labeled “Confidential,” that’s a clear indicator to the Receiving Party that the material is confidential. Notwithstanding the above, Confidential Information does not include information that (i) is or becomes generally available to the public without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party; (ii) was known to the Receiving Party prior to its disclosure by the Disclosing Party without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party; (iii) is received from a third party without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party; or (iv) was independently developed by the Receiving Party.
Protection and Use of Confidential Information
The Receiving Party will (i) take at least reasonable measures to prevent the unauthorized disclosure or use of Confidential Information, and limit access to those employees, affiliates and contractors who need to know such information in connection with the Agreement; and (ii) not use or disclose any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party for any purpose outside the scope of the Agreement. Nothing above will prevent either party from sharing Confidential Information with financial and legal advisors; provided, however, that the advisors are bound to confidentiality obligations at least as restrictive as those in the Agreement.
Compelled Access or Disclosure
The Receiving Party may access or disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party if it is required by law; provided, however, that the Receiving Party gives the Disclosing Party prior notice of the compelled access or disclosure (to the extent legally permitted) and reasonable assistance, at the Disclosing Party’s cost, if the Disclosing Party wishes to contest the access or disclosure. If the Receiving Party is compelled by law to access or disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, the Disclosing Party will reimburse the Receiving Party for its reasonable cost of compiling and providing access to such Confidential Information as well as the reasonable cost for any support provided in connection with the Disclosing Party seeking a protective order or confidential treatment for the Confidential Information to be produced.
Miscellaneous
Publicity
You may not publicly use the other party’s company name, logo, or other trademarks for any purpose without the other party’s prior written consent. However, Entendre may identify you as a Customer in our promotional materials.
Third Party Products, Links, and Information
The Services may integrate with, or contain, third party products, services, materials, or information, or links thereto that are not owned or controlled by us (“Third Party Materials”). We do not endorse or assume any responsibility for any such Third Party Materials. If Customer or any Authorized User accesses any third party website or service, it does so at its own risk, and Customer acknowledges and agrees that the Agreement and our Privacy Policy do not apply to Customer or any Authorized User’s use of such sites or services. Customer expressly relieves us from any and all liability arising from its or its Authorized User’s use of any Third Party Materials.
Force Majeure
Neither us nor Customer will be liable by reason of any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations on account of events beyond the reasonable control of a party, which may include denial-of-service attacks, a failure by a third party hosting provider or utility provider, strikes, shortages, riots, fires, acts of God, war, terrorism, and governmental action.

The parties are independent contractors. The Agreement does not create a partnership, franchise, joint venture, agency, fiduciary, or employment relationship between the parties. There are no third party beneficiaries to the Agreement; a person who is not a party to the Agreement may not enforce any of its terms under any applicable law.
Email Communications
Except as otherwise set forth herein, all notices under the Agreement will be by email, although we may instead choose to provide notice to Customer through the Services. Notices to us must be sent to legal@entendre.finance. Notices will be deemed to have been duly given (i) the business day after it is sent, in the case of notices through email; and (ii) the same day, in the case of notices through the Services.
Modifications
We may change these Customer Terms and the other components of the Agreement in accordance with this section. If we make a material change to the Agreement, we will provide Customer with reasonable notice prior to the change taking effect, either by emailing the email address associated with Customer’s account or by messaging Customer through the Services. Customer can review the most current version of the Customer Terms at any time by visiting this page and by visiting the most current versions of the other pages that are referenced in the Agreement. The materially revised Agreement will become effective on the date set forth in our notice, and all other changes will become effective upon posting of the change. If Customer (or any Authorized User) accesses or uses the Services after the effective date, that use will constitute Customer’s acceptance of any revised terms and conditions.
Waivers
No failure or delay by either party in exercising any right under the Agreement will constitute a waiver of that right. No waiver under the Agreement will be effective unless made in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the party being deemed to have granted the waiver.
Severability
The Agreement will be enforced to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law. If any provision of the Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be contrary to law, the provision will be modified by the court and interpreted so as best to accomplish the objectives of the original provision to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the remaining provisions of the Agreement will remain in effect.
Assignment
Neither party may assign or delegate any of its rights or obligations hereunder, whether by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other party (not to be unreasonably withheld). Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may assign the Agreement in its entirety without consent of Customer, to a corporate affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets. Any purported assignment in violation of this section is void. Subject to the foregoing, the Agreement will bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their respective successors and permitted assigns.
Governing Law
The Agreement, and any disputes arising out of or related hereto, will be governed exclusively by the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflicts of laws rules or the United Nations Convention on the International Sale of Goods. The parties acknowledge that the Agreement evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce. Notwithstanding the preceding sentences with respect to the substantive law of the Agreement, any arbitration conducted hereunder shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16).
Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial; Fees
The state and federal courts located in New York County, New York will have exclusive jurisdiction to adjudicate any dispute arising out of or relating to the Agreement or its formation, interpretation or enforcement, including any appeal of an arbitration award or for trial court proceedings if the arbitration provision below is found to be unenforceable. Each party hereby consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts. Each party also hereby waives any right to jury trial in connection with any action or litigation in any way arising out of or related to the Agreement. In any action or proceeding to enforce rights under the Agreement, the prevailing party will be entitled to recover its reasonable costs and attorney’s fees.
Arbitration
Read this section carefully because it requires the parties to arbitrate their disputes and limits the manner in which you may seek relief from us. For any dispute with us, you agree to first contact us at legal@entendre.finance and attempt to resolve the dispute informally. If we have not been able to resolve a dispute within sixty (60) days of your first contact, we each agree to resolve any claim, dispute, or controversy (excluding any claims for injunctive or other equitable relief as provided below) arising out of or in connection with or relating to the Agreement, or the breach or alleged breach thereof by binding arbitration by JAMS, under the Optional Expedited Arbitration Procedures then in effect for JAMS, except as provided herein. The arbitration will be conducted in New York County, New York, unless we agree otherwise. If you are using the Services for commercial purposes, each party will be responsible for paying any JAMS filing, administrative and arbitrator fees in accordance with JAMS rules, and the award rendered by the arbitrator shall include costs of arbitration, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses. If you are an individual using the Services for non-commercial purposes: (i) JAMS may require you to pay a fee for the initiation of your case, unless you apply for and successfully obtain a fee waiver from JAMS; (ii) the award rendered by the arbitrator may include your costs of arbitration, your reasonable attorney’s fees, and your reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses; and (iii) you may sue in a small claims court of competent jurisdiction without first engaging in arbitration, but this does not absolve you of your commitment to engage in the informal dispute resolution process. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this section shall be deemed as preventing us from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts as necessary to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of our data security, intellectual property rights or other proprietary rights.
Entire Agreement
