Program/Terms of Service License Agreement

NexTalk.net Users:

INTRODUCTION/ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS. NexTalk offers you (the "user" or "Customer") an account for the NexTalk.net Service (the "Service") on the following terms (the "Agreement"). Use of the NexTalk software (the "Program") is controlled by this agreement.

By using the Service in any way you are agreeing to comply with these terms, which we may update without notice. We encourage you to check www.nextalk.net for changes at any time. Unless we expressly note otherwise, these terms incorporate and supersede any other terms associated with the files and applications associated with the Service operated by NexTalk Communications, Inc. ("NexTalk", "we", or "us").

OWNERSHIP/COPYRIGHT OF PROGRAMS. Programs are the proprietary products of NexTalk and are protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. Customer acquires only the right to use Programs and does not acquire any rights, either express or implied, in Programs or media containing Programs other than those specified in this License. NexTalk shall at all times retain all rights, title and interest, including intellectual property rights, in Programs and media.

The Service and any software it incorporates ("Software") contain proprietary and confidential information that is protected by applicable intellectual property and other laws. Except as expressly authorized by us you will not modify, sell, or distribute works based on the Service or the Software.

LICENSE. Your license to Programs is subject to the following restrictions:

  1. NexTalk reserves all rights not expressly granted to you.
  2. Customer may use the Programs solely for its own internal purposes.
  3. Customer shall not: (a) remove any product identification, copyright notices, or other notices or proprietary restrictions from Programs; (b) transfer, sell, assign or otherwise convey Programs to another party without NexTalk's prior written consent; or (c) cause or permit reverse engineering, disassembly, or decompilation of Programs.

LIMITED WARRANTIES/EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES. Your use of the Service or Programs to access the Service are limited to the following warranties.

While we make every effort to provide the highest quality performance by the Service, we provide the Service on an "as is, as available" basis. You use it at your own risk, and NexTalk and its employees are not liable for any errors or omissions in communications transmitted by the Service, or for any form of loss or damage (including any consequential, indirect, incidental, special, or exemplary damages, even if known to us) that may result from its use. The Service is neither intended nor approved for communications with emergency services (911 calls, etc.), and NexTalk will accept no liability for errors or omissions in such calls. No warranty not set forth in this agreement will be valid. If any of the above provisions are void under governing law, our liability shall be limited to the extent permitted by law.

NexTalk DOES NOT warrant that: Programs will meet Customer's requirements, Programs will operate in combinations Customer may select for use, operation of Programs will be uninterrupted or error-free, or all Program errors will be corrected. These warranties are exclusive and in lieu of all other warranties, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. These are Customer's sole and exclusive remedies for any breach of warranty. This limited warranty gives you specific legal rights. You may have others, which vary from state to state.

REGARDLESS OF WHETHER ANY REMEDY SET FORTH HEREIN FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE, IN NO EVENT SHALL NexTalk BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA OR DATA USE, INCURRED BY CUSTOMER OR ANY THIRD PARTY, WHETHER IN AN ACTION IN CONTRACT OR TORT, EVEN IF NexTalk HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. Some states do not allow the limitation of liability for incidental or consequential damages so the above limitation may not apply to you.

IN NO CASE SHALL NexTalk'S LIABILITY EXCEED THE PURCHASE PRICE FOR THE PROGRAMS. The disclaimers and limitations set forth shall apply regardless of whether you accept the Programs.

NEXTALK DISCRETION OVER CONTENT, USE AND OPERATION OF THE SERVICE. We are not liable for the deletion or loss of messages, other communications, or other content maintained or transmitted by the Service. We may change or terminate the Service or any part of it without notice or liability.

We may terminate or change your password, account, or use of all or any part of the Service without notice and for any reason, including Technical/development reasons and/or violation of these terms.
