Terms of Service

The Social Agent, LLC

Terms and Conditions

Unless otherwise specifically agreed in a writing signed by the president of The Social Agent, LLC. (“The Social Agent”), acceptance of these terms and conditions create a contract (the "Client Agreement") between you and The Social Agent. This website (the “Site”) is owned by The Social Agent and this page explains the terms by which you may use the Site. Please read the Client Agreement carefully.

A. Introduction to the Services

This Client Agreement governs your use of The Social Agent’s services and the use of this Site (collectively the “Services”). The Services are: (1) online advertising services; (2) limited exclusive license of The Social Agent’s proprietary online advertising services (the “Proprietary Platform”); (3) Exclusive Market Licenses; and (4) certain support services provided by The Social Agent at its sole discretion regarding the Proprietary Platform. The Blue List clients may be entitled to additional services.

To use the Services, you need compatible hardware, software (latest version recommended and sometimes required) and Internet access (fees may apply).

For best results, The Social Agent recommends a minimum monthly Ad Budget of between $500.00 and $1,000.00 per zip code. The actual Ad Budget is the choice of the client. The Social Agent makes no promise or guarantee of lead volume or quality unless stated in writing in a separate agreement. The Social Agents runs ad(s) for clients by using Ad Budget funds to attract prospects for a full month. Prospects that are generated are exclusive to the client. Ads are designed to run continually for the length of the agreement.

B. Using the Services

Payment, Taxes and Refunds

There are various subscription plans (collectively the “Subscription Plan”). Your specific subscription plan is listed on your invoice. By starting your Subscription Plan, you authorize us to charge fees per the terms of your Subscription Plan, and any other charges you may incur in connection with your use of the Services. You will be automatically charged each month, or in the case of a prepaid plan per the terms of such plan, for your ongoing use of the Services. Once charged, the Exclusive Market License Fee and all the Subscription Plans fees are final and nonrefundable.

The cost of each Subscription Plan is set forth in the Client Agreement. Once you select a Subscription Plan, the cost of that Subscription Plan is guaranteed for the duration of that Subscription Plan only and does not include any renewals. Except as provided herein, Subscription Plan prices may change at any time with or without notice.

For details about how your payment method is charged, please visit: our Billing Policy available at http://thesocialagent.com/billing-policies. In the event that this agreement and the Billing Policy conflicts, this agreement controls. You are responsible for paying any applicable taxes.

You may be billed fees, charges and assessments related to late or non-payments if for any reason (a)The Social Agent does not receive payment for the Services by the payment due date; or (b) you pay less than the full amount due for the Services.

YOU WILL BE ASSESSED A LATE FEE OF 10% PER MONTH (OR THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT PERMISSIBLE BY LAW IF SUCH AMOUNT IS LESS) FOR ANY PAYMENT AMOUNT THAT HAS NOT BEEN PAID IN FULL AFTER TEN (10) DAYS FROM THE DUE DATE.

The Social Agent does not anticipate that you will fail to pay for the Services on a timely basis, and we do not extend credit to our customers. Any fees, charges and assessments due to late payment or nonpayment are liquidated damages intended to be a reasonable advance estimate or our costs resulting from late payments and non-payments. These costs will be difficult to calculate or to predict when we set such fees, charges and assessments, because we cannot know in advance: (a) whether you will pay for the Services on a timely basis, if ever; (b) if you do pay late, when you will actually pay; and (c) what costs we will incur because of your late payment or nonpayment.

If we use a collection agency or attorney to collect money owed by you, you agree to pay the reasonable cost of collection. These costs include, but are not limited to any collection agency’s fees, reasonable attorneys’ fees and arbitration or court costs.

If you fail to pay the full amount due for any or all of the Services then The Social Agent at its sole discretion in accordance with and subject to any applicable law, may suspend any or all of the Services until paid, or we may terminate this Client Agreement, all in our sole discretion.

Exclusive Market License Fee

Your EMLF is paid in advance and will be charged monthly at the commencement of your billing cycle.

Monthly Advertising Budget

You understand and agree that The Social Agent uses your advertising budget, less The Social Agent’s service fees, to contract with certain other third party providers to place internet advertising (the “Ad Budget”) on your behalf.

H. Governing Law; Venue

This Agreement and the relationship between you and The Social Agent shall be governed by the laws of the State of Colorado, excluding its conflicts of law provisions. You and The Social Agent agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located within the County of Denver, Colorado to resolve any disputes or claims arising from this Agreement.

I. Dispute Resolution

Should any dispute arise under or related to the use of the Services, you must first participate in at least four hours of non-binding mediation before a professional recognized by the National Academy of Distinguished Neutrals as a Member of the Academy and located in Denver County, Colorado (“ADR Professional”). The list of ADR Professionals is currently available at http://www.nadn.org. If the parties cannot agree on an ADR Professional, the ADR Professional with the lowest hourly rate shall be the mediator. The parties shall share equally in the costs of the mediation. Mediation shall involve no formal court procedures, discovery, or rules of evidence and the mediator does not have the power to render a binding decision or force an agreement on the parties.

Should the dispute remain outstanding after mediation, prior to initiating litigation you must submit to mandatory non-binding arbitration before an arbitrator other than the person who acted as mediator. If the parties cannot agree on an arbitrator, each party shall select one arbitrator, and those two arbitrators shall choose a different arbitrator (other than the one who served as mediator) and that person shall be the arbitrator. The arbitrator may allow limited discovery and must conduct an evidentiary hearing—subject to the Colorado Rules of Evidence—of no more than eight hours in duration prior to rendering a written decision. The decision shall not be binding on the parties (and may not be entered as a judgment or cited as evidence or precedent), but should be interpreted by the parties as a prediction of the result of formal litigation. Additionally, the prevailing party shall be reimbursed by the non-prevailing party its fees and costs related to the arbitration. Standards and procedures for the mediation and arbitration shall be decided by the relevant arbitrator consistent with this provision.

Absolutely no lawsuits may be initiated until after both mediation and arbitration are completed. Any litigation commenced prior to completing both mediation and arbitration shall be subject to a stay pending completion of both.

J. Waiver of Class Action

There shall be no right or authority for any claims to be arbitrated or litigated on a class action or consolidated basis or on bases involving claims brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public, other users of the Site or the Services, or other persons similarly situated. The Social Agent, LLC would not be willing to provide the Services to you absent this waiver. You acknowledge and agree that we are under no obligation to provide this Site or the Services if you are not willing to waive class action rights, and you expressly agree to this waiver.

K. Miscellaneous

If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid, all other provisions shall remain in full force and effect. No waiver of any breach or default hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default. The section headings used herein are for convenience only and shall not be given any legal import.
