Last Updated: Aug 10, 2021

Congratulation, You made it to probably the most boring section of our amazing web presence. Well, not really! Knowing your rights and obligations before or after signing up for IdaraTech as a Client, when just browsing this website or having a genuine interest in what we are doing, is very important, so keep on reading.

Your use of all IdaraTech Services available on www.joinIdaraTech.com (the “Services”), are subject to these Terms of Services. In order to activate and use the Services, You must agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Agreement”) with IdaraTech LLC (“IdaraTech”). If you do not agree to all of the Terms outlined in this Agreement, You may NOT use the Services.

In case you decide to take advantage of our HR advisory services, you will enter into a separate agreement with IdaraTech that governs Your relationship with IdaraTech and supersedes this Terms of Services. This specific agreement may or may not include software services.

The IdaraTech Privacy Policy (available here) is incorporated herein by reference. This Agreement governs Your use of the Services however accessed, including via an Internet browser, smartphone, tablet, or other mobile device.

In case You sign up for the Service on behalf of a Client, You represent that you are duly authorized to represent the entity and accept the terms of this Agreement on behalf of such entity, and any references to “You” in this Agreement refer to such entity and all of its employees, consultants and agents. You are responsible for all activity on the Services that occur under Your account

Your Use of the Services

IdaraTech owns and operates the website and its connected software platform. Documents and other information and content available, including, for example, any information made available to you during a demo of the platform (“Demo”) are collectively referred to as “Content.” The Content is protected by worldwide copyright law. IdaraTech grants you a limited, revocable license to access and use the Content and to reproduce portions of the Content for the sole purpose of reviewing the Content.

Term of Agreement and Termination

This Agreement will remain in effect until all of your subscriptions activated in accordance with this Agreement have expired or this Agreement is terminated either by You or IdaraTech (the “Term”). If you elect to use the Services for a free trial period, and do not purchase a subscription before the end of such period, this Agreement will expire at the end of the free trial period. A purchased subscription begins with the date displayed upon payment (in case of credit card payment) or with the date displayed on the invoice sent to you (offline billing) and lasts for the period selected by you upon signup (“Initial Term”). Subscriptions automatically renew thereafter (“Auto Renewal”). You have the right to cancel your subscription at any time, however, NO refund will be made for payments already collected. You are solely responsible for the proper cancellation of Your subscription by sending an email with your termination intention to: admin@IdaraTech.me.

IdaraTech reserves the right to terminate this Agreement at any time in the event that You materially breach this Agreement and do not cure such breach within 30 days of IdaraTech providing you with email notice. However, in the case of your nonpayment (including in the event when your credit card cannot be charged), IdaraTech may suspend your access to the Services upon any such nonpayment and may terminate this Agreement, if such breach is not remedied within 30 days of notice by IdaraTech to You. IdaraTech may also downgrade, suspend or terminate your access to the Services without liability, after providing you with 30 days’ advance notice, if (a) you fail to affirmatively agree to material modifications of this Agreement, or (b) you do not log in to or otherwise use the Service for a period of 180 days or more if you have a paid account and for a period of 15 days or more if you have a Demo account.

In the event of termination of any nature you are responsible to download all Your data from the platform in order to avoid loss of data. Specifically in the case of nonpayment and within the 30 days advance notice period.

Payment of Fees and Taxes

IdaraTech will, depending on your preferred mode of payment, either charge your credit card or issue offline invoices to You in accordance with this Agreement. Offline invoices will be issued electronically and sent to the email address that You have disclosed upon signup (Initial Term) or the email that you have defined in the Settings / Account section of the IdaraTech portal (Auto Renewal). You shall settle the due amounts no later than 15 business days after submission in full to the bank details provided in the respective invoice.

In case you signed up for a service tier where the use of services is limited to a certain amount of Active Users, IdaraTech will evaluate excess usage upon Renewal Date and will, at its sole discretion, automatically upgrade your service tier and include prorated fees for excess usage already incurred.

IdaraTech may at any time, upon notice of at least 90 days, or a longer period if required by Applicable Law, change the price of Your subscription or any part thereof, or institute new charges or fees. Price changes and institution of new charges implemented during your annual subscription period will come into effect for any subsequent annual subscription periods and to all new subscribers after the effective date of the change. If You do not agree to any such price changes, then you must cancel your subscription and stop using the Services prior to the commencement of the renewal subscription period for which the price change applies.
