A printed version of this agreement and of any notice given in electronic form shall be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to this agreement to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form.
TERMS OF SERVICE
Because of the type and nature of the software products offered, CyberConfirm reserves the right to refuse to sell product or provide service to anyone, at its own discretion.
A purchase of documents and software from CyberConfirm provides an initial download that can be used per the terms outlined here for as long as the customer wishes, and access to the password-protected online forms server which is good for one year after the date of purchase.
DELIVERY OF PURCHASE
All consumer software purchases that are downloadable or designed for online use are typically made available to the customer immediately after a successful transaction (i.e. appropriate delivery address provided and payment made for the product). CyberConfirm will provide confirmation of each purchase and delivery of the software via a confirmation screen on the web site and a confirmation email sent to the email address provided during checkout. While the delivery process is set up for instant transmission of the software access links, CyberConfirm will not refund the purchase price of the software because of a delay in providing these access links, usernames and/or passwords. CyberConfirm is not responsible for any delays in transmission due to web service outages or email delivery delays.
The software offered by CyberConfirm is very simple to access and use. In all instances, instructions are provided covering the installation and access processes. Thus, all software is sold with the joint understanding that the customer possesses a basic knowledge of computer systems and software functionality. No returns will be accepted due to the inability of the user to understand and utilize the software because of a lack of knowledge of these basic computer functions.
Access links to the downloadable .zip file and/or the online forms server for any title are available for one (1) year after the date of purchase, upon request. Files downloaded and saved to a device may be used without time limit, but new downloads are no longer accessible one year after the date of purchase. A discount code is available to past customers by email to make a new or updated purchase.
Packaged product orders or orders containing printed pages or CDs are shipped via the United States Postal Service using standard service, unless otherwise specified.
PRICES, CHARGES, AND PAYMENTS
All prices are in U.S. Dollars. All credit card charges must be paid in U.S. dollars; mailed payments must be sent in the form of U.S. money order, international money order, or check. All international money orders must be drawn from U.S. funds. CyberConfirm reserves the right to change the prices of merchandise sold on this web site at any time.
GUARANTEE OF FORM FORMATTING, CONTENT AND USABILITY
If any CyberConfirm document or form provided through the software purchased by you is not accepted by or acceptable to the appropriate agency, governmental entity, etc. because:
1) Improper information is contained in or on the document or form, or required information is absent from such document or form; or
2) CyberConfirm has improperly or inappropriately formatted any such document or form;
then CyberConfirm will make any changes requested by the court, agency, governmental entity, etc., without charge to the customer within five (5) working days of notice of such issue with the document or form (and receipt of verification of the rejection of the document or form). If within such five (5) working day period, CyberConfirm does not provide a revised and corrected form or document to the customer, suitable for acceptance for filing by the appropriate court, agency, entity, etc., then a refund will be issued to the customer for the full purchase price of the software as paid by the customer. This refund will be the sole and exclusive remedy available to you.
Verification of denial or rejection of any CyberConfirm document form by any agency, governmental entity, etc. may be required by CyberConfirm, and you must provide such verification prior to the start of the five (5) working day period described above. CyberConfirm may, in its sole discretion, waive your requirement to provide verification of the denial or rejection of the document or form.
This guarantee is limited to issues or problems with the document or form purchased by you from CyberConfirm. This guarantee does NOT apply to or concern the rejection or denial of any filing resulting (either directly or indirectly) from information or data supplied by you (or any other source) on or in the document or form that is properly prepared. CyberConfirm is not and cannot be responsible for the information you provide on the document or form, and CyberConfirm’s guarantee shall not require CyberConfirm to make any adjustments, corrections, suggestions or submissions of any kind for or on your behalf as the same pertains to the document or form so prepared.
No other guarantees or warranties are issued by CyberConfirm with regard to the forms or documents provided or offered for sale on its web site. This guarantee automatically terminates and is of no force and effect should the customer in any way alter, modify, amend, add to, delete information in or in any other way revise any part or portion of any form or document prior to submitting the same for filing with any agency, governmental entity, etc. Further, this guarantee is effective for a period of ninety (90) days following the purchase and download of the form or document by the customer.
RETURNS AND REFUNDS POLICY
The forms software offered by CyberConfirm is very simple to open, access and use. In all instances, instructions are provided covering the access and download processes. All software is sold with the joint understanding that you possess a basic knowledge of computer systems and software functionality, and can follow simple download and program use instructions. No returns will be accepted due to the inability of the user to understand and utilize the software because of a lack of knowledge of these basic computer functions.
Links to the software downloads purchased from CyberConfirm are provided immediately upon the completion of the financial transaction process. Links to the software are provided both on the Transaction Confirmation page that appears at the end of a successful payment transaction, and again in a separate Download Instructions email.
Because the products sold by CyberConfirm are software, and because this software is provided to you with unrestricted access immediately upon completion of the transaction, no returns can or will be accepted and no refunds will be granted under any circumstance. You understand and agree that all software/product purchases and/or downloads are considered final purchases for which absolutely no refunds will be given or provided, regardless of the nature of the request.
Further, you agree and acknowledges that you and any other user shall be solely responsible for and shall bear (and/or reimburse) CyberConfirm for any charge back fees issued to CyberConfirm by or from any credit card company, merchant service or other source of payment that is initiated at the request of the Purchaser. Stated another way, should you request a refund or charge back from any credit card company, merchant service or other source of payment on the purchase of CyberConfirm Software software/product and should said card company, merchant or other source thereafter impose any fee or amount to CyberConfirm Software at your request for or as a result, you shall reimburse CyberConfirm Software for the refund amount plus the said charge back fee or amount. By purchasing any software/product from CyberConfirm Software, you expressly authorize CyberConfirm Software to direct a payment/charge to made to Purchaser’s credit card account (the same being the credit card account used in the initial purchase of said software/product) in the amount of the said refund and charge back fee (or amount charged to CyberConfirm Software for such refund) plus a ten percent (10%) administrative fee.
INTERNATIONAL DUTIES/TAXES
While the online shopping systems are set up so as to only accept orders from USA residents and all deliveries are provided via software download, CyberConfirm is not responsible for any duties or value-added taxes that may be assessed by any local Customs office.
CyberConfirm PRO TERMS & CONDITIONS
The following is the Agreement between You and CyberConfirm regarding Your use of the software and documents available at www.CyberConfirm.com website (the “Web Site”) and the purchase of the CyberConfirm PRO Package and software.
You represent that you have been formally trained in the business of offering cybersecurity consultation or compliance documentation services to the public, and desire to enter into an agreement with CyberConfirm so as to be able to purchase and use certain CyberConfirm documents and software packages (“the Software”) and a license to use and employ the same when providing Your customers or clients with document preparation services.
In consideration of the mutual promises of the parties and the expected benefits arising to each under this Agreement, You and CyberConfirm enter into this Agreement as follows:
1. Grant of License.
(a) CyberConfirm grants to You a nonexclusive, nontransferable limited license to use the Software for the Permitted Use for the license term. This license is non-exclusive, meaning that CyberConfirm is free to issue similar licenses to other document preparation businesses, lawyers, Cybersecurity experts, firms, paralegal-based businesses and others as deemed appropriate by CyberConfirm.
(b) As a condition to the grant of this License, You agree to pay to CyberConfirm, in addition to the cost of the Software, a license fee of One 00/100 Dollar ($1.00), the receipt of the same being acknowledged by CyberConfirm as a portion of the purchase price of the Software.
2. Duration and Termination.
(a) Unless otherwise terminated as provided in this Agreement, this license shall become effective beginning on the date that the Software is purchased by You and shall continue in full force and effect for a one (1) year period of time, subject to termination as set forth herein. The license set forth in this Agreement will terminate immediately without notice from CyberConfirm if You materially breach this Agreement or take any action in derogation of CyberConfirm’s rights to the Software. CyberConfirm may terminate this Agreement should any the Software become, or in CyberConfirm’s reasonable opinion likely to become, the subject of a claim of intellectual property infringement or trade secret misappropriation. Upon termination, You will cease use of, and destroy or delete, the Software and confirm compliance in writing to CyberConfirm.
(b) The waiver of any default under this Agreement by CyberConfirm hereto shall not constitute a waiver of the right to terminate this Agreement for any subsequent or like default.
3. Permitted Use. You shall be permitted to use the Software for the following purposes only: To provide document preparation services to Your customers or clients; You may use the Software internally for personal, individual use; You may use the Software internally for Your own commercial purposes.
4. Restrictions.
(a) The Software provided to You under this Agreement is licensed, not sold, to You by CyberConfirm, and CyberConfirm reserves all rights not expressly herein granted.
(b) You may make a single archival copy of the Software, but otherwise may not copy, modify, or distribute the Software to any third party or source.
(c) You may not sell, rent, lease, lend or encumber the Software to any third party or source.
(d) You may not decompile, or reverse engineer the Software.
(e) The terms and conditions of this Agreement will apply to any the Software updates, provided to You at CyberConfirm’s discretion, that replace and/or supplement the original the Software, unless such update contains a separate license.
(f) The Software is proprietary, confidential and copyrighted.
(g) No right, title or interest in or to any trademark, service mark, logo or trade name of CyberConfirm or its licensors is granted under this Agreement.
You agree that for any unauthorized use of the Software, or engaging in any conduct or transaction that is restricted hereunder, it would be impossible or inadequate to measure and calculate CyberConfirm’s damages. Accordingly, You agree that if You engage in any conduct or transaction that is restricted or prohibited hereunder, or use the Software in a manner not authorized hereunder, thereby breaching this Agreement, there will be available to CyberConfirm, in addition to any other right or remedy available, the right to obtain an injunction from a court of competent jurisdiction restraining such breach or threatened breach. Further, You further agree that no bond or other security shall be required in obtaining such equitable relief and You hereby consent to the issuance of such injunction and to the ordering of specific performance.
In addition to such other remedies, including the injunctive relief described above, as CyberConfirm may be entitled in the event You shall violate any legally enforceable provision of this agreement, You shall pay as and for liquidated damages to CyberConfirm an amount equal to Ten Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($10,000.00) for each unauthorized use of the Software, or for any event or act that is restricted hereunder. Further, You agree that should You be in violation of any of the terms of this Agreement and CyberConfirm institutes or initiates any proceedings to enforce the terms of this Agreement, You shall pay and/or reimburse CyberConfirm for all costs, fees and expenses associated with such enforcement, including any attorney fees incurred by CyberConfirm as a result thereof.
5. Limited Warranty. The Software is provided “AS IS.” Your exclusive remedy and CyberConfirm’s entire liability under this limited warranty will be, at CyberConfirm’s option, to replace the Software or refund the purchase price and fee paid for the Software. Some states do not allow limitations on certain implied warranties, so the above may not apply to You. This limited warranty gives You specific legal rights. You may have others, which vary from state to state.
6. Disclaimer of Warranty. UNLESS SPECIFIED IN THIS AGREEMENT, ALL EXPRESS OR IMPLIED CONDITIONS, REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGEMENT ARE DISCLAIMED, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THESE DISCLAIMERS ARE HELD TO BE LEGALLY INVALID.
7. Limitation of Liability. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL CYBERCONFIRM BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOST REVENUE, PROFIT OR DATA, OR FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, HOWEVER CAUSED REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATE D TO THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE SOFTWARE, EVEN IF CYBERCONFIRM HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. In no event will CyberConfirm’s liability to You, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), or otherwise, exceed the amount paid by You for the Software under this Agreement. The foregoing limitations will apply even if the above stated warranty fails of its essential purpose. Some states do not allow the exclusion of incidental or consequential damages, so some of the terms above may not be applicable to You.
8. Your Use of the Software. You acknowledge that following the receipt of the Software from CyberConfirm, the services that will be provided by You to Your clients or customers shall be Your own product and/or service, the same to be provided and produced solely by You. You acknowledge that CyberConfirm has merely sold You a license to use CyberConfirm’s fillable legal Software and that You alone are responsible for products and services offered by You to Your customers and clients. CyberConfirm makes no claim to the accuracy, authenticity, validity, legality, enforceability or any other aspect of the products or services produced, offered or sold by You to Your customers or clients. Further, You acknowledge that CyberConfirm has not, in any way, participated in the production of any of the substantive contents of any product and/or service offered by You to Your customers or clients, nor has CyberConfirm provided any direction, guidance or advice (nor has the same been sought) as it pertains to any service offered by You. CyberConfirm does not and cannot be responsible for any representation or promise made by You to any of Your customers or clients, as CyberConfirm is in no way associated with such customers or clients, except for the purpose of providing You with the license granted herein. This license is purchased by You with the understanding and knowledge that CyberConfirm is not engaged in rendering legal or Cybersecurity advice.
In no event shall CyberConfirm be liable to You for any direct, indirect, punitive, incidental, special, consequential damages or any damages whatsoever including, without limitation, monetary damages of loss of profits, arising out of or in any way connected with the license granted hereunder, nor in any product or service offered or sold by You to any third party, or otherwise arising out of the license issued hereunder, whether based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability or otherwise.
With regard to any of Your products and/or services sold or provided to any of Your customers or clients which utilize the Software (either directly or indirectly), You agree to indemnify, defend, and save CyberConfirm, its successors and assigns, its members, employees, representatives and agents, harmless from all loss, liability, claims, demands, judgments, damages, costs, and expenses, including attorney fees, resulting from any claim, suit, or action arising from the products and/or services provided by You to any of Your customers or clients (or any person making any claim, demand or judgment by or through such customer or client).
With regard to any of Your products and/or services sold to any customer, You also specifically agree to indemnify defend, and save CyberConfirm, its successors and assigns, its members, employees, representatives and agents, harmless from all loss, liability, claims, demands, judgments, damages, costs, demands for refunds or reimbursement, and expenses, including attorney fees, resulting from any claim by any of Your customer or client that the product and/or service purchased by any such customer or client is not appropriate for the intended use of such customer or client or is otherwise unacceptable.
9. Termination. Either party shall have the right to immediately terminate this Agreement upon written notice to the other in the event that either party makes any assignment for the benefit of creditors or files a petition in bankruptcy or is adjudged bankrupt or becomes insolvent or is placed in the hands of a receiver or if the equivalent of any of the proceedings or acts referred to in this clause, though known and/or designated by some other name or term shall occur.
10. Relationship Created. Your relationship to CyberConfirm under this Agreement is that of a licensee only. You are not to be considered at any time a joint venturer, partner, or employee of CyberConfirm in any dealings, transactions, or activities arising from this contract. You have no authority to bind CyberConfirm by any promise, representation, or statement unless CyberConfirm gives its specific written authorization to do so with respect to a particular act or transaction. For tax purposes, You shall not be treated as an employee.
11. No Refunds for Purchase of Software and/or License. You specifically agree and understand that because the Software sold by CyberConfirm is provided to You with unrestricted access immediately upon completion of the transaction, that no returns can or will be accepted and no refunds will be granted under any circumstance.
Again, You agree and acknowledge that the purchase of the license and the Software from CyberConfirm is considered a final purchase for which absolutely no refunds will be given or provided, regardless of the nature of the request.
Further, You agree and acknowledge that You shall be solely responsible for and shall bear (and/or reimburse) CyberConfirm for any charge back fees issued to CyberConfirm by or from any credit card company, merchant service or other source of payment that is initiated at the request of You. Stated another way, should You request a refund or charge back from any credit card company, merchant service or other source of payment on the purchase of CyberConfirm Software, and should said card company, merchant or other source thereafter impose any fee or amount to CyberConfirm at Your request or as a result of the purchase of the Software, You shall reimburse CyberConfirm for the refund amount plus the said charge back fee or amount. By purchasing any Software or License product from CyberConfirm, You expressly authorize CyberConfirm to direct a payment/charge to made to Your credit card account (the same being the credit card account used in the initial purchase of said Software) in the amount of the said refund and charge back fee (or amount charged to CyberConfirm the Software for such refund) plus a ten percent (10%) administrative fee.

Neither party is relying upon any warranties, representations, assurances or inducements not expressly set forth.
(c). All amendments or modifications of this Agreement shall be in writing and executed by CyberConfirm exclusively.
