Terms of Service

Thank You For Choosing Authentic8!

Legalese can be tedious and heavy. Authentic8 wants to deliver a valuable service, but there are some basic ground rules, which are described below. Please read the complete Authentic8 Terms of Service below, which is the controlling agreement, but basically:

  • The Authentic8 Service is accessible directly over the internet via Authentic8’s client software application or the browser. There is no requirement for Authentic8 to visit your facilities or access your corporate network.
  • When you register to use Authentic8, we store the information you give us, as well as log information. These data elements can be anonymized and/or encrypted.
  • Your data is yours. If you leave our service, we give you mechanisms to export and delete it from our systems.
  • We make diligent efforts to protect your data. You can also configure product in a manner which minimizes your surface area of exposure and limits what data you share in our system. You should configure and use the product accordingly.
  • We can't always anticipate problems with other websites or web services, and so we can't be responsible for your relationship with those third parties.
  • Please don't attempt to decompile or otherwise reverse engineer our software.
  • Likewise, we take a rather dim view of someone trying to hack or spoof Authentic8 so please don't attack our service.
  • Please don't do anything illegal or infringe the rights of others using Authentic8. We reserve the right cooperate with the appropriate law enforcement or civil authorities.
  • We believe in rapid iteration, and so we're always updating Authentic8, including the App software you may install on your computer. We do this to give you access to new features, as well as to constantly improve security. Customer communication is an important part of our business model, so we’ll attempt to keep you posted about changes we think you need to know about.

Terms of service

This Authentic8 Terms of Service, along with any other terms and/or policies expressly incorporated herein by reference (which form an integral part hereof), as amended from time to time (collectively, the “Agreement” or the “Terms”) constitute a legally binding agreement as of the Effective Date (as defined below) governing your access to and use of the Authentic8 Service. This Agreement is between Authentic8, Inc. (“Authentic8”, “us”, “we” or “our”) and you, either individually, or on behalf of your employer or any other entity which you represent (“Customer”, “you” or “your”). If you accept this Agreement or use the Authentic8 Service on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that company or other legal entity to this Agreement.

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT, BY CLICKING ON AN “I ACCEPT” OR OTHER SIMILARLY LABELED BUTTON OR CHECKBOX WHICH REASONABLY INDICATES ACCEPTANCE OF THESE TERMS, ACCESSING OR USING THE AUTHENTIC8 SERVICE, OR SUBMITTING AN ORDER FORM, (THE EARLIEST OF SUCH TO OCCUR, THE “EFFECTIVE DATE”), YOU ARE INDICATING THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTAND AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS.

For the avoidance of doubt, some Authentic8 Service offerings, capabilities, features or other functionalities may only be available or optimized while accessing the Authentic8 Service via the Authentic8 App or directly via a browser.
    2. Authentic8 shall have the right to modify and/or add new service features or product offerings to the Authentic8 Service in Authentic8's sole discretion. Authentic8 reserves the right to provide these new offerings as independently priced and delivered offerings, or to integrate them into the Authentic8 Service at no incremental cost.
    3. If Customer elects to access the Authentic8 Service via the Authentic8 App, Customer must download the Authentic8 App as directed by Authentic8 and install it on each device that will use the Authentic8 Service. Alternatively, Customer may access the Authentic8 Service directly via a browser. When installed on your computer, the Authentic8 App communicates with our servers. We may require the updating of the Authentic8 App when we release a new version, or when we make new features available. This update may occur automatically or upon prior notice to you and may occur all at once or over multiple sessions. Customer agrees to stay current with the latest version of the Authentic8 App. Customer shall only (i) the install the Authentic8 App on, and/or (ii) access the Authentic8 Services from; compatible devices that are supported by Authentic8 (compatibility information for Authentic8 App may be found at HERE; for the authentic8 web client, HERE).

To the extent any Order Form for an Authentic8 Service identifies a storage capacity (e.g., 1 GB), throughput capacity (e.g., 2 GB of Data Transfer / month), or any other metric reasonably intended as a limit on Customer’s use (each, an “Authentic8 Service Limit”), Authentic8 reserves the right to limit or suspend Customer’s access to the applicable Authentic8 Service in the event Customer reaches or exceeds that Authentic8 Service Limit.
    6. During the Subscription Term, Authentic8 will provide technical support for the Authentic8 Service according to the (i) Standard Support Terms, which are incorporated herein or, to the extent Premium Support is included on the Order Form and paid for by Customer, the (ii) Premium Support Terms, which are incorporated herein.

For the avoidance of doubt, Authentic8 may review Customer's use of such subscriptions at any time through the Service. Any increase in the Base Number of Authorized Users will co-terminate on the same date as the then-current Subscription Term.
    3. Customer may not decrease the Base Number during the then-current Subscription Term. Customer may only decrease the Base Number of Authorized Users for a subsequent Subscription Term by providing notice prior to the commencement of the same.

Authorized Users may only use the Authentic8 Service to access accounts for which they are authorized to access and use by both Customer and the party offering such Third Party Web Resources. By providing Account Access Information, the account owner (whether Customer or its Authorized Users) permits Authentic8 to use (and, if elected by Customer or its Authorized Users, store) the Account Access Information on behalf of the account owner to perform logins and other access-related activities when so directed by Customer or its Authorized Users. The account owner can remove any Account Access Information stored with the Authentic8 Service at any time.

    1. Authentic8’s order form may be completed and placed in various ways, including without limitation directly or indirectly via third party resellers, via an online form or in-product screens or any other mutually agreed upon offline form delivered by Customer and accepted by Authentic8, including via mail, email or any other electronic or physical delivery mechanism (the “Order Form”). Such Order Form will list, at the least, the Service ordered and the associated fees. The “Subscription Term” shall include the initial subscription term identified on the Order Form (or if not expressed therein, an initial one (1) year term) and any renewal term, whether by express mutual agreement or Customer’s continued use of the Authentic8 Service. Unless stated otherwise in the Order Form, the initial Subscription Term shall commence upon Authentic8’s acceptance of the Order Form.
    2. The Authentic8 Service shall be deemed accepted upon delivery (i.e., provisioning).

All Fees are quoted in United States dollars. Subscription Fees will be invoiced in advance of the applicable Subscription Term and are due within 30 days from the date of invoice. Incremental service fees incurred by increasing the Base Number of Authorized Users or ordering additional functionality or add-ons may be invoiced at any time after such increase or order, prorated for the remaining portion (i.e., after the effective date of the increase) of the then-current Subscription Term. Except in the case of Customer terminations pursuant to Section 7.2 or Authentic8 terminations pursuant to Section 7.3, all payment obligations are non-cancelable and once paid are nonrefundable.
    3. Late payments will accrue interest at 1.0% per month or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is less, calculated from the date such amount was due until the date that payment is received by Authentic8. Customer claims regarding fees invoiced must be made in writing within 60 days of the date of the invoice containing the amount in question to be eligible to receive an adjustment or credit. Subscription Fees are exclusive of all taxes or other charges imposed by taxing authorities, and Customer is responsible for payment of all such taxes and charges, excluding any taxes based on Authentic8’s income.

    4. The Subscription Term will renew for subsequent terms of one (1) year upon the mutual agreement of the parties (or for a longer term as expressly agreed to by the Parties) or Customer’s continued use of the Authentic8 Service, and shall be subject to this Agreement, unless expressly memorialized otherwise in a writing signed by Authentic8 and Customer.
  7. SUSPENSION; TERMINATION.
    1. Without limiting other available remedies, Authentic8 reserves the right to disable Customer’s account and suspend access to the Authentic8 Service if Customer has undisputed amounts more than 30 days past due. Authentic8 also reserves the right to suspend access to the Authentic8 Service in accordance with Authentic8’s Copyright Policy or if Authentic8 reasonably suspects that: (1) someone other than an Authorized User is using (or attempting to use) Customer’s account; (2) Customer or any of its Authorized Users use of the Authentic8 Service disrupts, harms, or poses a security risk to the Authentic8 Service or to any website or web-based application; or (3) Customer is using the Authentic8 Service in breach of this Agreement. In no event shall Authentic8 suspend access to the Authentic8 Service without first notifying Customer of the nature of the problem.
    2. A party may terminate this Agreement with written notice (i) if the other party breaches a material term of this Agreement and fails to correct the breach within 30 days following written notice specifying the breach. If Customer rightly terminates this Agreement for cause, Authentic8 will refund the unused portion of the Subscription Fees that Customer had paid for the Authentic8 Service and Services for the remainder of the Subscription Term.
    3. Authentic8 shall have the right to terminate this agreement for its convenience for any reason by giving notice of termination effective upon receipt thereof by Customer. In such event, Authentic8 will refund the unused portion of the Subscription Fees that Customer had paid for the Authentic8 Service and Services for the remainder of the Subscription Term. In the event Authentic8’s termination for default is wrongfully made it shall be treated as a termination for convenience.
    4. Upon any expiration or termination of this Agreement, Customer’s right to access and use the Authentic8 Service will automatically terminate, and Customer may not continue to access or use the Authentic8 Service. Upon termination, Customer shall promptly uninstall and destroy all copies of Authentic8 IP in Customer’s possession or control. Authentic8 will have no liability for any costs, losses, damages, or liabilities arising out of or related to Authentic8’s exercise of its termination rights under this Agreement. Any payment obligations as of the expiration or termination (or that relate to activity during the Subscription Term) will remain in effect. Authentic8 will provide Customer an opportunity to download and delete their data from its system. If Customer does not delete their account information, it will be automatically deleted by Authentic8 in accordance with its data retention policies.
  8. DISCLAIMER.

Authentic8 will not be liable for any security breach (or other events) caused by circumstances outside of its reasonable control.
    3. Authentic8 is not responsible for any data or information that Customer, or its Authorized Users, download or access through the use of the Authentic8 Service.

  9. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.
    1. In connection with these Terms and the Authentic8 Service (including the evaluation thereof), each Party (“Disclosing Party”) may disclose non-public business, product, technology and marketing information, including without limitation, customers lists and information, know-how, software and any other non-public information that is either identified as such or should reasonably be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information and the circumstances of disclosure, whether disclosed prior or after the Effective Date (the “Confidential Information”) to the other party (“Receiving Party”). For the avoidance of doubt, (i) Customer Personal Data is regarded as Customer’s Confidential Information, and (ii) the Authentic8 Service and Evaluation Service, inclusive of their underlying technology, and their respective performance information, as well as any data, reports and materials we provided to you in connection with your evaluation or use of the Authentic8 Service, are regarded as Authentic8’s Confidential Information. Confidential Information does not include information that (a) is or becomes generally available to the public without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party; (b) was known to the Receiving Party prior to its disclosure by the Disclosing Party without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party; (c) is received from a third party without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party; or (d) was independently developed by the Receiving Party without any use or reference to the Confidential Information.
    2. 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, service providers and agents, on a need to know basis and who are bound by confidentiality obligations at least as restrictive as those contained herein; and (ii) not use or disclose any Confidential Information to any third party, except as part of its performance under these Terms and as required to be disclosed to legal or financial advisors to the Receiving Party or in connection with a due diligence process that the Receiving Party is undergoing, provided that any such disclosure shall be governed by confidentiality obligations at least as restrictive as those contained herein.
    3. The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information if the disclosure is necessary to comply with a valid court order or subpoena (in which case the Receiving Party will, unless expressly prohibited by the terms of the court order or subpoena, promptly notify the disclosing party and provide reasonable and good faith cooperation to the Disclosing Party if the Disclosing Party chooses to contest the disclosure requirement, seek confidential treatment of the information to be disclosed, or to limit the nature or scope of the information to be disclosed).
  10. UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT CUSTOMERS. 
    1. U.S. Government Rights. The Authentic8 Service offerings are “commercial items” as that term is defined at FAR 2.101. If Customer is an Executive Agency (as defined in FAR 2.101) of the U.S. Federal Government (“Government”), Authentic8 provides the Authentic8 Service, including any related technical data and/or professional services in accordance with the following: (a) If a right to access the Authentic8 Service is procured by or on behalf of any Executive Agency (other than an Executive Agency within the Department of Defense (DoD)), the Government is granted, in accordance with FAR 12.211 (Technical Data) and FAR 12.212 (Computer Software), only those rights in technical data and software customarily provided to Authentic8’s customers as such rights are described in this Agreement; (b) If a right to access the Authentic8 Service is procured by or on behalf of any Executive Agency within the DoD, the Government is granted, in accordance with DFARS 227.7202-3 (Rights in commercial computer software or commercial computer software documentation), only those rights in technical data and software that are customarily provided to Authentic8’s customers as such rights are described in this Agreement. In addition, DFARS 252.227-7015 (Technical Data – Commercial Items) applies to technical data provided by Authentic8 to an Executive Agency within the DoD. Except as expressly agreed to in writing by Authentic8, no other rights or licenses are granted to the Government. Any rights requested by the Government and not granted under this Section 10 must be expressly agreed to in writing signed by Authentic8. These Terms, including this Section 10, are in lieu of any other FAR, DFARS, or other clause, provision, or supplemental regulation that addresses Government rights in computer software or technical data.
    2. Federal Prime Contract Terms and Conditions. To the extent Authentic8 Services are ordered as part of a Federal prime contracts entered into directly by Authentic8 (a “Prime Contract”), the terms set forth in Sections 6 (Orders; Subscription Terms; Subscription Fees; Payment; Renewal), 7 (Suspension; Termination), 8 (Disclaimer), 11 (Limitation of Liability), and 12 (Indemnity) and take precedence over conflicting terms at FAR 52.212-4(a), (h), (l), (m), (n), (o), (p), which are tailored to align with the terms herein in accordance with FAR 12.302. In addition, FAR 52-212-4 (j) is not applicable to these Terms because the Authentic8 App and Authentic8 Services are delivered electronically. The tailoring is in accordance with customary commercial practice and does not tailor any of the clauses set forth in FAR 12.302(b) that are not permitted to be tailored. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Order Form, FAR 52.212-4 is not a flow-down to Federal subcontractors and shall not be included in the event the Authentic8 Services are provided indirectly to the Government via a subcontract agreement between Authentic8 and a prime contractor (a “Subcontract”).
    3. Federal Prime Contract or Subcontract Terms and Conditions. Any right to terminate for breach under Section 7 (Suspension; Termination) will be subject to the Contract Disputes Act for Federal end users if the termination for breach is disputed. Authentic8’s right to defend under Section 12 (Indemnification) is subject to the requirements of 28 U.S.C. §516.
  11. LIMITATION ON LIABILITY. 
    1. IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR OTHER DAMAGES OF ANY TYPE OR KIND (INCLUDING ANY LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, OR DATA) IN CONNECTION WITH THE AUTHENTIC8 SERVICES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE AUTHENTIC8 SERVICE, OR FOR ANY INFORMATION OR DATA TRANSMITTED THROUGH THE AUTHENTIC8 SERVICE, ANY INTERRUPTION, INACCURACY, ERROR OR OMISSION, REGARDLESS OF CAUSE, AND WHETHER OR NOT PREVIOUSLY ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT WILL THE TOTAL LIABILITY OF EITHER PARTY EXCEED THE SUBSCRIPTION FEES PAID BY AND/OR DUE FROM CUSTOMER IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO SUCH CLAIM.
    2.

    3. The foregoing indemnity obligations are conditioned on the indemnified party notifying the indemnifying party promptly in writing of any actual or threatened Claim, the indemnified party giving the indemnifying party sole control of the defense thereof and any related settlement negotiations, and the indemnified party cooperating and, at the indemnifying party’s request and expense, assisting in such defense.
  13. THIRD PARTY AD-ONS. 
    1. Customer acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent the applicable Order Form includes subscriptions or access to, or the use of, third party software, software services and/or data services (collectively, “Third Party Add-Ons”), such Third Party Ad-Ons shall be provided to Customer by the applicable third party subject to its then-current end-user agreement for the provision of such Third Party Ad-Ons, which agreement shall be between Customer and the applicable third party, and which Authentic8 shall provide to Customer upon request.
    2. AUTHENTIC8 BEARS NO RESPONSIBILITY AND/OR LIABILITY FOR ANY THIRD PARTY AD-ONS, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, SUCH THIRD PARTY AD-ON’S OPERABILITY OR INTEROPERABILITY WITH THE AUTHENTIC8 SERVICE, SECURITY, ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, DATA PROTECTION AND PROCESSING PRACTICES AND THE QUALITY OF ITS OFFERINGS, AS WELL AS ANY ACTS OR OMMISSIONS BY THIRD PARTIES. BY ACCESSING AND/OR USING THE THIRD PARTY AD-ONS, CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ITS ACCESS AND USE OF THE THIRD PARTY AD-ONS ARE AT ITS SOLE DISCRETION AND RISK, AND CUSTOMER IS SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ENSURING SUCH THIRD PARTY AD-ON’S OPERATION AND PRACTICES AND ITS RESPECTIVE THIRD PARTY AGREEMENT MEET ITS NEEDS.
  14. RESALE; DISTRIBUTION; 
    1. In the event Customer is provided written permission by Authentic8 to resell or distribute the Authentic8 Services described on the applicable Order Form, Customer represents and warrants that (i) it shall conduct such resale or distribution in a manner which contractually binds Customer’s customer to these Terms in privity of contract with Authentic8 and (ii) it shall be responsible for its customers acts and omissions and compliance with these Terms.
    2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Authentic8 has entered into a definitive reseller agreement with the party purchasing Authentic8 Services for resale, such terms shall take precedence over the terms herein.
  15. MISCELLANEOUS.
    1. The parties are independent contractors, and no branch or agency, partnership, association, joint venture, employee-employer, or franchiser-franchisee relationship is intended or created by this Agreement. This Agreement is intended for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties and is not intended to benefit any third party. Only the parties to this Agreement may enforce it.
    2. Neither party shall be liable for default if nonperformance is caused by an occurrence beyond the reasonable control of such Party, to include without limitation, acts of God or the public enemy, acts of the Government in either its sovereign or contractual capacity, fires, floods, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, unusually severe weather, and delays of common carriers. The non-performing party will make reasonable efforts to notify the other Party as soon as it is reasonably possible after the commencement of any excusable delay, setting forth the full particulars in connection therewith, and shall remedy such occurrence with all reasonable dispatch, and shall promptly give written notice to such Party upon the cessation of such occurrence. Authentic8 is not, however, responsible for the acts of our subcontractors, and access to the Authentic8 Service is dependent on Customer’s ability to access the internet, which Authentic8 is not responsible for.
    3. This Agreement is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, as if performed wholly within the state and without giving effect to the principles of conflict of law. Any legal action or proceeding arising under this Agreement will be brought exclusively in the federal or state courts located in Santa Clara County, California and the parties hereby consent to such venue and personal jurisdiction. If any portion of this Agreement is found to be void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect.
    4. Neither party may assign this Agreement, in whole or in part, without the other party’s prior written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party, in connection with a merger, reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of the assets or equity of such party, may assign this Agreement in its entirety to such party’s successor without the other party’s consent. Any attempt to assign this Agreement other than as permitted above will be null and void.
    5. Except as expressly provided otherwise herein, all notices required or permitted under this Agreement will be in writing and delivered by courier or overnight delivery services, or by certified mail, and in each instance will be deemed given upon receipt. All communications to Authentic8 shall be addressed to Authentic8, Attn: General Counsel, 333 Twin Dolphin Dr, Suite 112, Redwood City, CA 94065 and all communications to Customer shall be sent to the Customer address set forth on the Order Form or to such other address as may be specified by either party to the other in accordance with this Section.
    6. Either Party’s failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of future enforcement of that right or provision. The waiver of any such right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of the waiving party. Except as expressly set forth in these Terms, the exercise by either party of any of its remedies under these Terms will be without prejudice to its other remedies under these Terms or otherwise. If for any reason a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of these Terms invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and the other provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect.
