Terms of Service

Last updated: June 15, 2023

Welcome to ELUX Communities! Please carefully review these Terms of Service (these “Terms of Service”), as they contain important information about your legal rights, remedies and obligations. When these Terms of Service mention “ELUX Services LLC”, “ELUX”, “ELUX Communities”, “ELUX Homes”, “we”, “us”, or “our”, it refers to ELUX Services LLC. By subscribing to or using any of our Services (as defined below), you agree to comply with and be bound by these Terms of Service. Any terms contained in your order form will supersede these Terms of Service.

These Terms of Service constitute a legally binding agreement between you and us and govern your access to and use of the Services. Your access to and use of the Services are also governed by (i) the terms set forth in your order form and online sign-up flows, (ii) the Value+ Terms, (iii) the Tenant Screening Terms, (iv) the Payments Terms, (v) the Website Terms, and (vi) any other policies applicable to your use of the Services that we make available, each of which is incorporated by reference into these Terms of Service.

ELUX Communities respects your privacy. Please consult our Privacy Policy for more information on how we collect, use and share your personal information for our own purposes (but note that our Privacy Policy is not a part of these Terms of Service and may be changed from time to time). By agreeing to these Terms of Service, you acknowledge and consent to the collection, use, sharing and disclosure of your personal information and data as described in our Privacy Policy, as may be modified from time to time.

SCOPE OF SERVICES

We offer a hosted suite of property management software services, which include our core property management software solution (“APM”), our PLUS property management software solution (“APM PLUS”), and additional value-added services to which you may subscribe (the “Value+ Services” and together with APM and APM PLUS, the “Services”). To subscribe to a Service, you must sign an order form or complete the online sign-up flow, which identifies the Service to which you have subscribed, additional subscription terms, and the fees payable for such Service. By subscribing to the Services, you may access and use the Services to manage and account for the real property units that you assign to the Services (collectively, the “Units” and each a “Unit”). We reserve the right to (a) modify the Services (or any part thereof) from time to time, and we are not liable to you or to any third party for any modification of the Services, and (b) assess your Unit count at regular intervals and invoice you appropriately.

1.1. INTENDED USE

The Services are designed and intended to be used for property management purposes in the United States. Your use of the Services for any other purpose or in any other manner is at your own risk.

1.2. NO LEGAL ADVICE

The Services contain features and tools designed to assist you in the operation of your business and are capable of being used to comply with certain of your regulatory or other legal obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we do not make any representations or warranties that your use of the Services will satisfy or ensure compliance with any legal obligations or laws, rules, or regulations. ELUX Services LLC does not provide legal advice and is not engaged in the practice of law. We encourage you to consult with your legal counsel before utilizing any of the Services that may have legal ramifications.

1.3. EXPANDING THE SERVICES

You may subscribe to additional Services (including any new Value+ Services we make available from time to time), increase or decrease the number of Units, or add additional databases by executing an order form or completing an additional online sign-up flow. All new Services are subject to these Terms of Service.

1.4. MIGRATION OF DATA

Promptly following your initial subscription to the Services, we will coordinate and work with you to migrate certain of your data into the Services. You will be responsible for providing data in a format deemed acceptable to us and will provide materials and reasonable assistance for the migration of your data. You represent and warrant that you are the rightful owner of your data and have the requisite authority to perform the migration of such data. You will retain all right, title and interest in and to your data. If the migration of your data and materials is not completed on the scheduled date we mutually agreed upon on two or more occasions, we reserve the right to charge you for additional Implementation Fees at our sole discretion. In the event that another migration of data is necessary as a result of a change of, for example, your business name, a change in your tax identification number, a change in your business structure or any other similar reasons (a “Re-Migration”), we will charge an additional one-time non-refundable Onboarding Fee for setting up a new database and/or migrating the data within the existing database. We will help determine the optimal plan for Re-Migration based upon the individual situation and the non-refundable Onboarding Fees associated with such Re-Migration will be due and payable by you on the date of invoice.

1.5. SET-UP AND CONFIGURATION

You are solely responsible for determining the appropriate set-up and configuration of the Services. In the event you request we provide assistance in the set-up or configuration of the Services, without in any way limiting Section 8.2, we make no representations or warranties with respect to any changes we may make or work we may perform on your behalf and at your request.

MODIFICATION OF THESE TERMS OF SERVICE

We work constantly to improve our Services with updates, new features, and new services.  And  we may need to change these Terms of Service from time to time to accurately reflect our Services and practices. If we do, those revised Terms of Service will supersede prior versions. Unless we say otherwise, changes will be effective upon the “Last Updated” date located at the top of this page. We agree that changes cannot be retroactive. We will provide you advance notice of any material changes to these Terms of Service, including those pertaining to the addition of a new service. For any other changes, we will publish the revised Terms of Service and update the “Last Updated” date above. We hope that you will continue to use our Services, but if any changes materially impact you or your business and you object to such changes, you may terminate your subscription to the Services according to the terms herein. Your continued use of the Services after we modify these Terms of Service constitutes your acceptance of any revisions.

1. SELF-GUIDED SHOWINGS

1.1 SELF-GUIDED SHOWINGS SERVICE

Our self-guided showing service allows prospective tenants to self-tour your properties (the “Self-Showing Service”). The Self-Showing Service is enabled from within ELUX Services LLC Property Manager, but is primarily furnished by one or more third party service providers (each, a “Self-Showing Service Provider”).

1.2 SELF-SHOWING SERVICE PROVIDER AGREEMENT

Before utilizing the Self-Showing Service, you must accept the relevant Self-Showing Service Provider terms of service (the “Self-Showing Service Provider Terms”), which constitute a legally binding contract directly between you and the Self-Showing Service Provider that governs your use of the Self-Showing Service.

1.3 REQUIREMENTS

To use the Self-Showing Service, you must purchase a digital lockbox and/or other necessary hardware, software, and/or other products or services from an ELUX Services LLC-supported Self-Showing Service Provider, pay the applicable fee to the relevant Self-Showing Service Provider and assign the digital lockbox (and/or other necessary hardware, software, or other products or services) to a unit advertised online through ELUX Services LLC Property Manager.

1.4 ROLE OF ELUX Services LLC

In the event that you choose to participate in the Self-Showing Service, you acknowledge and agree that (a) the Self-Showing Service is provided solely by the relevant Self-Showing Service Provider and is subject to the Self-Showing Service Provider Terms, and (b) the Services serve only as a conduit for the relevant Self-Showing Service Provider to offer the Self-Showing Service through the Services.

1.5 YOUR RESPONSIBILITY

You understand and acknowledge that we have no responsibility or liability with respect to (a) verification of persons who use the Self-Showing Service to gain access to your properties, (b) any use or abuse of the Self-Showing Service, (c) improper entry to a property, and/or (d) any malfunction of your digital lockbox.

1. FOLIOGUARD™ SMART ENSURE

2.1 FOLIOGUARD™ SMART ENSURE

As part of the Services, we provide a legal liability to landlord software (“Smart Ensure”) as a tool to help you manage your liability insurance programs at your properties. This software program is not an insurance policy or insurance product. You understand and agree that we are only providing you a tool to help you more efficiently manage your insurance program at your properties, and that you are ultimately responsible for compliance with your policies and relevant laws and regulations.

2.2 POLICY

Separate from Smart Ensure, we make available legal liability to landlord insurance (“LLLI”) by an A+ AM Best rated insurer through our business partner, Stern Risk Partners, LLC, a licensed insurance broker (“Broker”). If you elect to purchase LLLI from the Broker and agree to pay the applicable periodic premiums (“Premiums”), a commercial policy (“Policy”) will be issued to you by the insurance company through the Broker, which will extend coverage to reported residential dwelling units where your tenants reside (“Resident Units”). The Broker will provide you with the complete Policy upon completion of their on-line insurance application and their binding coverage. Any information that we make available to you about LLLI is for informational purposes only and is not a solicitation or offer. All services from the Broker and insurance company are their own. Once you reach the Broker, we are not involved and have no control over the Policy or Policies involved. You acknowledge and agree that LLLI is offered by the Broker and not through ELUX Services LLC. Any questions you have regarding and requests to purchase LLLI should be directed to the Broker. Once issued, you may administer your Policy through Smart Ensure.

2.3 REPORTING

You may use Smart Ensure to enroll Resident Units to your Policy (“Enrolled Units”). Resident Units not reported through Smart Ensure may not be covered by the Policy.

Further, Smart Ensure’s auto enroll feature will automatically enroll your Resident Units into your Policy that do not have proof of renters insurance coverage in AppFolio’s software, and un-enroll Enrolled Units that provide such proof. You certify that you are in compliance with these FolioGuard™ Smart Ensure terms in order for the proper functioning of this tool. You are responsible for the correct reporting of Resident Units to become Enrolled Units.

2.4 COVERAGE

Per the Policy, coverage is limited to Enrolled Units. The Policy provides specific coverage for property damage to an Enrolled Unit by the occupying tenant (“Resident”) and is intended to satisfy the minimum liability insurance requirements of your residential lease agreement (“Lease”). You hereby expressly agree to not: (a) represent LLLI as a form of renters insurance or a suitable substitute for renters insurance, or as property insurance or a suitable substitute for property insurance, nor (b) misrepresent it in any other way. LLLI does not provide coverage for Resident contents or liability arising from bodily injury nor does it provide property damage coverage to property of anyone other than you. The Resident is not an insured or additional insured under LLLI. It is your responsibility to understand and refer to your Policy for coverage details, limitations, and exclusions.

2.5 PREMIUMS

You are the named insured (“Named Insured”) on the Policy and are responsible for payment of all Premiums associated with the Policy. You agree to pay the Premiums set forth in your Policy. There are no refunds for Premiums even if you elect to terminate your Policy early. You agree to maintain an electronic payment authorization with us and understand it will be used to facilitate your payment of the Premiums in full each month, regardless of your ability to recover fees from your Residents. You understand and agree that your payment of the Premiums will be due on the first of each month for all Enrolled Units during the preceding month and that overdue Premiums may result in cancellation by the insurance company of your Policy and no coverage. If you fail to pay the Premiums, the Broker and insurance company reserve the right to engage a collections agency to collect unpaid Premiums and you agree to pay all costs incurred in connection with the collection of past due amounts, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ and collections agencies’ fees plus interest in an amount equal to the lesser of 1.0% per month or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.

2.6 FEES

If you elect to charge a monthly Smart Ensure fee, such fee must be reasonable, as determined by us, the Broker, or insurance company in our sole discretion. You agree to clearly disclose any such fee that you may charge to your Resident(s). You will not charge one-off fees. Failure to abide by this requirement may result in cancellation by the insurance company of your Policy and/or we may terminate your access to Smart Ensure.

2.7 RECOVERABLE EXPENSES

You will not charge any fees to your Resident to recover the costs of your liability insurance program unless: (a) you have a signed Lease with the Resident that discloses (i) all minimum insurance requirements, and (ii) that coverage will be purchased by you upon Resident’s failure to provide evidence of minimum required insurance; and (b) you have allowed the Resident an opportunity, at Lease execution, to provide evidence that they have met such minimum insurance requirements. You will only enroll Resident Units into the LLLI in the event that the Resident has not provided evidence of minimum required insurance as required by your Lease. You will not enroll Resident Units into the LLLI if you know that the Resident has their own insurance meeting the minimum insurance requirement of your Lease. You will immediately cancel coverage for any Enrolled Unit upon receipt of evidence of Resident insurance meeting the minimum insurance requirement of your Lease. You understand your Policy may be canceled by the insurance company if you have not taken reasonable measures to meet this requirement, and/or we may terminate your access to Smart Ensure.

2.8 ADVERSE SELECTION

You will take reasonable measures to roll out LLLI to all eligible Resident Units not having insurance meeting the minimum insurance requirement of the Lease; without consideration to individual Residents. You acknowledge that your Policy may be canceled by the insurance company, or your access to Smart Ensure may be canceled by us, if you have not taken reasonable measures to meet this commitment.

2.9 ACCURATE INFORMATION

If you elect to apply for LLLI, you are responsible for electronically completing and submitting to the Broker an initial written application for consideration in their underwriting LLLI. We are not involved in this underwriting process and do not make a decision on your eligibility to obtain LLLI. You acknowledge that the Broker and insurance company may rely upon the validity, accuracy, and completeness of the information provided by you in your application for LLLI. Subsequent to the initial set-up of Smart Ensure to report LLLI, we may from time to time request that you provide updated information and supporting documentation to us (such as property complex names, addresses), which you will use best efforts to deliver to us within three (3) business days following our request. Failure by you to provide valid, complete, and accurate information and supporting documentation requested within a timely manner may result in cancellation of your Policy by the insurance company, and no coverage.

2.10 CONCEALMENT OR FRAUD

ELUX Services LLC will not provide access to Smart Ensure for reporting units to LLLI and the insurance company will not provide coverage under the Policy when you have: (a) intentionally concealed or misrepresented any material fact or circumstance, (b) engaged in fraudulent conduct, or (c) made false statements relating to any claim or the insurance coverage provided under the Policy.

2.11 RESIDENT NOTICE

It is your responsibility to communicate details of LLLI, including types and level of coverage provided under the Policy, to Residents occupying Enrolled Units. You do not need to provide Residents with any formal or customized certificates of insurance. A generic notice of insurance or statement of disclosure is available from the Broker in electronic and/or paper format summarizing relevant coverage terms under your Policy.

2.12 CONFLICT BETWEEN TERMS OF SERVICE AND POLICY

These Value+ Terms do not modify or amend in any way the terms of the Policy.

2.1.4 We strongly endorse the letter and spirit of the FCRA. We believe that this law and similar state laws recognize and preserve the delicate balance between the rights of the consumer and the legitimate needs of commerce.

2.1.5 In addition to the FCRA, other federal and state laws addressing such topics as computer crime and unauthorized access to protected databases have also been enacted. As a user of consumer reports, we expect that you and your staff will comply with all relevant federal statutes and the statutes and regulations of the states in which you operate.

2.2 ACCESS SECURITY REQUIREMENTS

2.2.1 We must work together to protect the privacy and information of consumers. The following information security measures are designed to reduce unauthorized access to consumer information. It is your responsibility to implement these controls. If you do not understand these requirements or need assistance, it is your responsibility to employ an outside service provider to assist you. We reserve the right to make changes to these Access Security Requirements without notification. The information provided herewith provides minimum baselines for information security. The term “Authorized User(s)” means you, and your employees that you have authorized to view and utilize the Screening Services, and with respect to the access and use of Screening Reports, have been trained on your obligations under this agreement, and with relevant federal and state laws.

2.2.2 In accessing ELUX Services LLC’s Screening Services, you agree to follow these security requirements. These requirements are applicable to all systems and devices used to access, transmit, process, or store the Information:

2.2.3 Implement Strong Access Control Measures, including as follows:

(a) Do not provide your AppFolio user names/identifiers (user IDs) or user passwords to anyone. No one from AppFolio will ever contact you and request your password.

(b) Proprietary or third party system access software must authenticate Authorized Users before accessing the Information. Additionally, such systems should have AppFolio password(s) hidden.

(c) Ensure that passwords are not transmitted, displayed or stored in clear text.

(d) Authorized Users must change their AppFolio password immediately when: (i) any system access software is replaced by another system access software or is no longer used; (ii) the hardware on which the software resides is upgraded, changed or disposed of; or (iii) any suspicion exists of their password being disclosed to an unauthorized party.

(e) Protect Authorized Users’ AppFolio password(s) so that only key personnel know this sensitive information. Unauthorized personnel should not have knowledge of these password(s). User IDs and passwords shall only be assigned to Authorized Users based on least privilege necessary to perform job responsibilities.

(f) Create a separate, unique user ID for each user to enable individual authentication and accountability for access to AppFolio. Each Authorized User of the system access software must also have a unique login password.

(g) Ensure that Authorized User IDs are not shared, posted or otherwise divulged in any manner.

(h) Keep Authorized User passwords confidential.

(i) Develop strong passwords that are: (i) not easily guessable (i.e. your name or company name, repeating numbers and letters or consecutive numbers and letters); (ii) contain a minimum of eight (8) alpha/numeric characters for standard user accounts; and (iii) for interactive sessions (i.e. non system-to-system) ensure that passwords are changed periodically (every 90 days is recommended).

(j) Implement password protected screensavers with a maximum fifteen (15) minute timeout to protect unattended workstations. Systems should be manually locked before being left unattended.

(k) Active logins to credit Information systems must be configured with a thirty (30) minute inactive session timeout.

(l) Restrict the number of Authorized Users who have access to consumer information and ensure that only Authorized Users have access to Screening Reports and Information.

1. CARD PAYMENT SERVICES

1.1 VERIFICATION

We will require you to provide information to verify your identity as a condition of providing you with access to the credit and debit card payment processing services (the “Card Services”). Such information may include a government-issued identification, such as a passport or driver’s license, a business license, your employer identification number (EIN), a valid U.S. credit card, a verified U.S. bank account, or other financial or personal information. We may make, directly or through third parties, any inquiries we consider necessary to validate information that you provide to us. We may also ask for permission to inspect your business location. If you refuse any of these requests or provide inaccurate, untrue, or incomplete information, we may suspend or terminate your use of the Card Services in our sole discretion. By accepting the Payments Terms, you specifically authorize us to request identity verifying information about you from third parties, including a consumer report that contains your name and address. You agree that we are permitted to contact and share information about you and your AppFolio account with Wells Fargo Bank (“Bank”), who serves as the sponsoring bank in connection with the Card Services, and other financial institutions. This includes sharing information (a) about your transactions for regulatory or compliance purposes, (b) for use in connection with the management and maintenance of the service, (c) to create and update our/and or their customer records about you and to assist us and/or them in better serving you, and (d) to conduct our risk management process.

1.3 OUR LIMITED ROLE

In connection with the Card Services, we merely collect and relay information and do not receive, take possession or custody of, or otherwise hold any funds on behalf of any third parties. We are a registered Independent Sales Organization of Bank.

1.4 APPOINTMENT OF BANK AND APPFOLIO AS YOUR AGENT

By accepting the Payments Terms, you hereby appoint Bank and AppFolio as your agent in connection with the Card Services for the limited purpose of processing amounts received (“Payments”) from users paying via the Card Services (“Payors”) on your behalf as payment for goods and/or services provided by you and transmitting such Payments to you. The foregoing agency appointment will remain in full force and effect while you use the Card Services. You agree that receipt of Payors’ Payments by AppFolio or Bank in connection with the Card Services pursuant to the Payments Terms constitutes receipt of Payments by you and therefore satisfies Payors’ respective payment obligations to you as if the Payors paid you directly, even if Payors’ Payments are never transmitted to you. Accordingly, you agree not to seek Payments from Payors in the event that you do not receive Payors’ Payments in connection with the Card Services.

If you use the Card Services to accept Payments owed to other individuals or entities for which you provide property management services (“Payees”), you represent and warrant that you have all requisite power, authorization, and authority to, among other things, (a) appoint AppFolio and Bank as each Payee’s agent for the limited purpose of processing Payors’ Payments on behalf of each Payee as payment for goods and/or services provided by the Payee and transmitting such Payments to you or the Payee; and (b) agree, on behalf of each Payee, that receipt of Payors’ Payments by AppFolio or Bank on the Payee’s behalf constitutes receipt of Payors’ Payments by the Payee and satisfies Payors’ respective payment obligations to the Payee as if the Payors paid the Payee directly, even if Payors’ Payments are never transmitted to you or the Payee.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, and for clarity, where a Payor itself disputes a payment previously made and prevails (i.e., a chargeback is permitted), you agree we do not have any obligation to take further action for you, unless otherwise required by applicable law or Card Brand Rules (as defined below).

1.5 RESTRICTED USE

You may use the Card Services only in accordance with, and subject to, the Payments Terms. You must comply with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations (“Applicable Law”), including, but not limited to, those applicable to your use of the Card Services.

At any time and from time to time, payments to you may be suspended or delayed and/or we may designate an amount of funds that must be maintained in your Bank Account or in a separate reserve account to secure the performance of your payment obligations for the Card Services (the “Reserve”).

The Reserve will be in an amount as reasonably determined by us to cover anticipated chargebacks, returns, unshipped merchandise and/or unfulfilled products or services or credit risk based on your processing history or such amount designated by Bank. The Reserve may be raised, reduced or removed at any time by us, in our sole discretion, based on your payment history, a credit review or otherwise as we or Bank may determine or require.

You grant us a security interest in and lien on any and all funds held in any Reserve and also authorize us to make any withdrawals or debits from the Reserve, without prior notice to you, to collect amounts that you owe us under the Payments Terms, including, without limitation, for any reversals of deposits or transfers made to your Bank Account. You will execute any additional documentation required for us to perfect our security interest in any funds in the Reserve. This security interest will survive for as long as we hold funds in your Reserve.

The amount of the refund/adjustment must include any associated taxes required to be refunded and cannot exceed the amount shown as the total on the original transaction data except by the exact amount required to reimburse the customer for postage that the customer paid to return merchandise. Please be aware, if your refund policy prohibits returns or is unsatisfactory to the cardholder, you may still receive a chargeback relating to such transactions.

1.14 YOUR LIABILITY FOR CHARGEBACKS

The amount of a transaction may be reversed from or charged back to your Bank Account (a “Chargeback”) if the transaction (a) is disputed, (b) is reversed for any reason by the Card Brand, Bank, or a Payor’s or our financial institution, (c) was not authorized or we have any reason to believe that the transaction was not authorized, or (d) is allegedly unlawful, suspicious, or in violation of the Payments Terms.

For any transaction that results in a Chargeback, the Chargeback amount may be withheld in a Reserve. We may deduct the amount of any Chargeback and any associated fees, fines, or penalties assessed by the Card Brand or Bank from your Bank Account (including, without limitation, any Reserve), any proceeds due to you, or other payment instrument registered with us. If you have pending Chargebacks, payouts may be delayed to your Bank Account. Further, if we reasonably believe that a Chargeback is likely with respect to any transaction, the amount of the potential Chargeback may be withheld from payments otherwise due to you under the Payments Terms until such time that: (a) a Chargeback is assessed due to a Payor’s complaint, in which case we will retain the funds; (b) the period of time under Applicable Law by which the Payor may dispute that the transaction has expired; or (c) we determine that a Chargeback on the transaction will not occur. If we are unable to recover funds related to a Chargeback for which you are liable, you will pay us the full amount of the Chargeback immediately upon demand. You agree to pay all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and other legal expenses, incurred by or on behalf of us in connection with the collection of all account deficit balances unpaid by you.

1.16 EXCESSIVE CHARGEBACKS

If we determine that you are incurring an excessive amount of Chargebacks, we may establish controls or conditions governing your AppFolio database, including, without limitation, by (a) establishing new processing fees, (b) creating a reserve in an amount reasonably determined by us to cover anticipated Chargebacks and related fees, (c) delaying payouts, and (d) terminating or suspending your use of the Card Services.

1.17 CONTESTING CHARGEBACKS

You agree to assist us when requested, at your expense, to investigate any of your transactions processed through the Card Services. Towards that end, you permit us to share information about a Chargeback with the Payor, the Payor’s financial institution, and your financial institution in order to investigate and/or mediate a Chargeback. We may also share such information with other parties as permitted by Applicable Law or Card Brand Rules. If we decide, in our sole discretion, to contest a Chargeback, we may request additional transaction related information from you. Examples of when we may determine not to contest a Chargeback include (but are not limited to) instances where (i) there is insufficient or incomplete evidence to make a defense, or (ii) the Card Brand Rules preempt a fight. If the Chargeback is contested successfully, we will release the reserved funds to your Bank Account. If a Chargeback dispute is not resolved in your favor by the Card Brand or issuing bank or we choose not to contest the Chargeback, we may recover the Chargeback amount and any associated fees as described in the Payments Terms. You acknowledge that Chargebacks are a risk associated with accepting payment by credit card. You further acknowledge that your failure to assist us in a timely manner where we choose to investigate and/or contest a Chargeback transaction, including, but not limited to, by providing necessary documentation within two (2) days of our request, may result in an irreversible Chargeback. We reserve the right, upon notice to you, to charge a fee for mediating and/or investigating Chargeback disputes.

1.18 OUR SET-OFF RIGHTS

To the extent permitted by law, we may set off against the amount of any obligation you owe us under the Payments Terms, including, without limitation, any Chargebacks. All fees will be charged at the time we process a transaction and are deducted first from the transferred or collected funds and thereafter from.

1.19 OUR PROCESSING ERRORS

We will attempt to rectify processing errors that you notify us of or that we discover. If the error resulted in your receipt of less than the correct amount to which you were entitled, your Bank Account will be credited for the difference.

Your failure to notify us of a processing error within thirty (30) days of when it first appears on your electronic transaction history will be deemed a waiver of any right to amounts owed to you.

YOU HAVE AGREED TO THE PAYMENTS TERMS, WHICH SET FORTH REQUIREMENTS REGARDING THE CARD SERVICES AND ARE INCORPORATED INTO THIS CEA BY REFERENCE.

BY ACCEPTING THE PAYMENTS TERMS, YOU CONSENT TO BE BOUND BY THIS CEA, WHICH CONSTITUTES A LEGALLY BINDING CONTRACT BETWEEN YOU AND WELLS FARGO BANK, N.A. (“WELLS FARGO”) TO GOVERN THE AUTHORIZATION AND SETTLEMENT OF TRANSACTIONS CONDUCTED BETWEEN YOU AND YOUR CUSTOMERS USING THE CARDS THROUGH THE CARD SERVICES.

Any rights not expressly granted herein are reserved by Wells Fargo. Wells Fargo may terminate provision of credit and debit card processing services provided by Wells Fargo to AppFolio and you in connection with payments made to you through the Card Services and enforce any of the provisions of these Payments Terms that relate to the credit and debit card processing services provided by Wells Fargo. This CEA replaces any other CEA you may have already agreed to with AppFolio and Wells Fargo.

1.21.1 Purpose. When your customer pays you through the Card Services, he/she has the option of paying you through a funding source offered by AppFolio, including the Cards. Since you may be the recipient of a payment through a Card issued by the Card Brands, the Card Brands require that you enter into a direct contractual relationship with a bank who is a member of the Card Brands. By entering into this CEA, you are fulfilling the Card Brands’ rule of entering into a direct contractual relationship with a member bank, and you are agreeing to comply with the Card Brand Rules as they pertain to the Card payments you receive through the AppFolio Services.

1.21.2 Card Brand Rules. You agree to comply with all Card Brand Rules as may be applicable to you from time to time. You acknowledge that the Card Brands have established guidelines, merchant monitoring programs and reports to track merchant activity, such as excessive credits and chargebacks, and increased deposit activity. In the event you breach any Card Brand Rule, you may be subject to: (i) incremental chargebacks and/or fees; (ii) settlement delay or withholding; (iii) termination of your AppFolio user agreement and this CEA; or (iv) audit and imposition of fines. You agree to follow all requirements of this CEA in connection with each Card transaction and to comply with all applicable Card Brand Rules.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you shall comply with the following requirements and restrictions:

(a) Deposit Transactions. You agree to accept Card payments through the Card Services only for bona fide transactions between you and your customer for your services or goods. You shall not submit a transaction for the refinance or transfer of an existing obligation that was uncollectible. You acknowledge that, for Card payments, AppFolio may obtain an authorization for transaction amounts prior to completing the transaction. You shall not request or use a cardholder’s information for any purpose other than to support payment for your services or goods.

(b) Minimum or Maximum Thresholds. You agree that you shall not set maximum transaction amounts or impose surcharges as a condition of honoring Card payments. Any minimum transaction amount must not be greater than $10 and can only be applied to cards issued in the United States or United States Territories.

(c) No Surcharges; Taxes. You may not add tax to any transaction unless so permitted by Applicable Law and, in such case, only if included in the transaction amount and not collected separately.

(d) Card Brands’ Marks. You are authorized to use the appropriate Card Brands’ logos or marks on your promotional materials and website (as applicable) only to indicate that Cards are accepted as funding sources for your transactions.

(e) Cash Advances. You shall not disburse or advance any cash to your customers (except as authorized by the Card Brands) or to yourself or any of your representatives, agents, or employees in connection with a transaction, nor shall you accept payment for effecting credits or issuing refunds to your customers.

(f) Discrimination. You agree that you shall not engage in any acceptance practice that discriminates against or discourages the use of Cards in favor of any other card brand.

(g) Access to Cardholder Data and Card Data Security. If and to the extent you get access to Cardholder Data, you shall at all times be compliant with PCI DSS and Applicable Law and shall certify such compliance in accordance with the Card Brand Rules or when asked by AppFolio to do so. You shall also use only PCI-compliant service providers in connection with the storage or transmission of Cardholder Data. You must not store CVV2 data at any time. If you receive Cardholder Data in connection with the Card Services, you shall not (i) use the Cardholder Data for any purpose other than to support Card payments for your services, (ii) use the Cardholder Data for any purpose that you know or should know to be fraudulent or in violation of any Card Brand Rules, (iii) sell, purchase, provide or exchange in any manner or disclose Cardholder Data to anyone other than Wells Fargo or Card Brands (as applicable) or in response to a government request.

(h) AppFolio Customer Identification. You agree to prominently and unequivocally inform your customers of your identity at all points of interaction. You must include the address of your permanent establishment at such points of interaction.

(i) Chargebacks. You shall use all reasonable methods to resolve disputes with your customers. Should a chargeback dispute occur, you shall promptly comply with all requests for information from AppFolio or Wells Fargo. You shall not attempt to recharge a customer for an item that has been charged back, unless the customer has authorized such actions.

(j) Refund Policy. Refund Policy. If you limit refund/exchange terms or other specific conditions for transactions, your policy must be clearly provided to your customers prior to the transaction, as part of the confirmation process, and in accordance with Applicable Law. Proper disclosure would include wording that is prominently displayed and states “NO REFUND” or something substantially similar and includes any special terms, including those required by Applicable Law. You acknowledge that qualifying your refund or exchange terms does not completely eliminate your liability for a refund because consumer protection laws and Card Brand Rules frequently allow the cardholder to still dispute these items.

(k) Compliance with Applicable Laws; Privacy Policy Display. You will not access and/or utilize the Card Services for illegal purposes and will not interfere or disrupt networks connected with the Card Services. You agree to comply with all Applicable Laws, including but not limited to, laws requiring you to display your consumer privacy policy on your website as well as your security method for transmission of payment data.

(l) Limited Acceptance. Pursuant to the Card Brand Rules, you understand that you are allowed to limit your acceptance to either (i) only accept Non-PIN Debit transactions; or (ii) only accept Card transactions; however, by using the Card Services you are electing full acceptance.

(m) Recurring Transactions. If you permit recurring transactions, you must (i) obtain your customer’s consent to periodically charge the customer on a recurring basis for the services or goods purchased; (ii) retain this permission for the duration of the recurring services or goods and in accordance with any Applicable Laws, Card Brand Rules or other applicable rules, and provide it upon request to AppFolio, Wells Fargo or your customer’s Card issuing bank; and (iii) retain written documentation specifying the frequency of the recurring charge, the duration of time during which such charges may be made and the amount or range of amounts that may be charged. You must not submit any recurring transaction after receiving: (i) a cancellation notice from your customer (so long as such notice was timely provided, as determined in accordance with Applicable Law and Card Brand Rules); or (ii) notice from AppFolio, Wells Fargo or any Card Brand that the Card is not to be honored. In your transaction data, you should include an electronic indicator that the transaction is a recurring transaction.

1.21.3 Payment Instructions. You authorize and instruct Wells Fargo to allow AppFolio to direct all amounts due to you for credit or debit card processing through Wells Fargo. AppFolio will serve as your agent for purposes of directing your proceeds from credit and debit card-funded processing services.

1.21.4 Term and Termination. This CEA is effective upon the date you electronically agreed to or accepted the Payments Terms or otherwise agreed to this CEA (by “click-through” or otherwise), and shall remain effective so long as you use the Card Services. This CEA will terminate automatically upon any termination or expiration of your subscription to the Card Services, provided that those terms which by their nature are intended to survive termination (including indemnification obligations and limitations of liability) shall survive. This CEA may be terminated by Wells Fargo, at any time, based on (i) a breach of any of your obligations under this CEA or the Payments Terms or (ii) the termination of the payment processing relationship between AppFolio and Wells Fargo. Notwithstanding the above, Wells Fargo and/or AppFolio, at its sole discretion, may terminate this CEA at any time for any reason.

1.21.5 Indemnification. In addition to your indemnification obligations set forth in the Terms of Service, you agree to indemnify and hold AppFolio and Wells Fargo harmless from and against all losses, liabilities, damages and expenses resulting from and/or arising out of: (a) any breach of any warranty, covenant or agreement or any misrepresentation by you under this CEA; (b) your or your employees’ negligence or willful misconduct in connection with Card-funded transactions or otherwise arising from your provision of services to customers paying for such services through the Cards; (c) any third-party indemnification(s) AppFolio and/or Wells Fargo is obligated to make as a result of your actions (including indemnification of any Card Brand or your customer’s Card issuing bank); or (d) failure to comply with Applicable Law or Card Brand Rules.

1.21.6 Warranty Disclaimer. WELLS FARGO DISCLAIMS ALL REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, MADE TO YOU OR ANY OTHER PERSON, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTIES REGARDING QUALITY, SUITABILITY, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR OTHERWISE OF THE SERVICES PROVIDED UNDER THIS CEA TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

1.21.7 Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding anything in this CEA to the contrary, in no event shall the parties hereunder, or their affiliates or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents or subcontractors, be liable under any theory of tort, contract, or strict liability or other legal theory for lost profits, lost revenues, lost business opportunities, or exemplary, punitive, special, incidental, indirect or consequential damages, each of which is hereby excluded by agreement of the parties, regardless of whether such damages were foreseeable or whether any party or any entity has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Notwithstanding anything in this CEA to the contrary, in no event shall Wells Fargo be liable or responsible for any delays or errors in Wells Fargo’s performance of the services caused by Wells Fargo’s service providers or other parties or events outside of Wells Fargo’s reasonable control, including AppFolio. Notwithstanding anything in this CEA to the contrary, AppFolio’s and Wells Fargo’s cumulative liability for all losses, claims, suits, controversies, breaches or damages for any cause whatsoever (including those arising out of or related to this CEA) and regardless of the form of action or legal theory and whether or not arising in contract or tort shall not exceed the fees paid to Wells Fargo under this CEA (net of Card Brand fees, third-party fees, interchange, assessments, penalties and fines) for the six (6) months prior to the time the liability arose, such amount not to exceed ten thousand dollars ($10,000).

The foregoing sentence shall not exclude or limit any liability of any party for death or personal injury caused by negligence or fraud, deceit or fraudulent misrepresentation, howsoever caused.

1.21.8 Governing Law; Arbitration. This CEA shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California. Any dispute with respect to this CEA between you and Wells Fargo, including a dispute as to the validity or existence of this CEA and/or this clause, shall be resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Venue for any such arbitration shall be Santa Barbara County, California.

1.21.9 Assignment; Amendments. This CEA may only be assigned in connection with a permitted assignment under the Payments Terms. Wells Fargo may assign its rights under this CEA without your consent. This CEA may be amended by you only upon mutual written agreement with Wells Fargo. Wells Fargo may amend this CEA at any time via AppFolio posting a revised version on the AppFolio website(s). The revised version will be effective at the time AppFolio posts it. In addition, if the revised version includes a substantial change, to the extent required by Applicable Law, Wells Fargo will provide you with 30 days’ prior notice of such change via AppFolio posting a notice on the AppFolio website(s). After such a notice is posted, you will be considered as having expressly consented to all changes to the CEA if you continue to use the Card Services. For the purpose of this CEA, a “substantial change” will be any change that involves a reduction to your rights or increases your responsibilities.

1.21.10 Waiver. The failure of a party to assert any of its rights under this CEA, including the right to terminate this CEA in the event of a breach or default by the other party, will not be deemed to constitute a waiver by that party of its right to enforce each and every provision of this CEA in accordance with its terms.

1.21.11 Relationship Between the Parties. No agency, partnership, joint venture or employment relationship is created between AppFolio’s customer and Wells Fargo by way of this CEA. In the performance of their respective obligations hereunder, the parties are, and will be, independent contractors. Except to the extent that AppFolio has been appointed as an agent of its customer, no party will bind, or attempt to bind, the other party to any contract or the performance of any obligation, and no party will represent to any third party that it has any right to enter into any binding obligation on the other party’s behalf.

1.21.12 Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this CEA will be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under Applicable Law, but if any provision hereof will be prohibited by or determined to be invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision will be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this CEA.

1. APPFOLIO WEBSITE TERMS

Last Updated: February 15, 2022

If you have subscribed to the Services, you may also subscribe to AppFolio Website Services (the “Website Services”). The order form that you have completed identifies the Website Services to which you have subscribed, the subscription term, and the fees payable by you to us for the Website Services. The following additional terms of service apply specifically to the Website Services and are hereby incorporated by reference into the Terms of Service. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined below shall have the meaning given in the Terms of Service. In the event of any conflict between the terms below and the Terms of Service, the terms below shall prevail. If you do not subscribe to the Website Services, the Website Terms do not apply and shall not be enforced.

1. WEBSITE HOSTING SERVICES

If you subscribe to the Website Services, we will host your website on our private servers (the “Website Hosting Services”). You will be required to use our nameservers to configure your primary domain’s DNS settings. As part of the Website Hosting Services, we will be responsible for the initial setup and registration or transfer of one domain name if we decide, in our sole discretion, that registration or transfer is necessary to enable the Website Hosting Services. If more than one domain name must be registered or transferred, additional fees may apply. You are responsible for providing materials and reasonable assistance as identified by us for the registration and/or transfer of domain name(s). We will maintain current domain registration as long as you are subscribed to the Website Hosting Services and have paid all applicable fees. As part of the set-up process, we will give you an opportunity to modify the current content of your existing website, if any. We will interact with your current hosting company only if necessary and authorized by you and will not be responsible for any costs incurred to obtain files or other transfer-related costs, all of which shall be your responsibility.

1. WEBSITE DESIGN SERVICES; CONTENT FOR WEBSITE

In addition to the Website Hosting Services, we agree to provide website design services (the “Website Design Services”). We will provide our proprietary design templates for use in connection with your website, together with a limited selection of alternative text, images and colors; provided, however, you remain solely responsible for (i) the selection of the design template, (ii) all data and content on your website, including without limitation all content you upload in conjunction with the Website Services (the “Content”) and (iii) the overall look and feel of your website. We will not provide custom design or photography services. You agree not to hire a third party to modify the design template, and you hereby expressly agree to use us to make any changes to the design template and/or Content. You acknowledge and agree that we are and will remain the sole and exclusive owner of the proprietary design templates offered as part of the Website Design Service and you have no right, title or interest in the design templates except the limited right to use the template you select for as long as you use the Website Hosting Services.

1. HANDLING OF YOUR CONTENT AND DOMAIN UPON TERMINATION

Upon termination of the Website Services, our sole obligation is to retain your Content in the format maintained by us in the production environment (test or draft versions of Content will not be retained) for thirty (30) days after termination (the “Content Retention Period”). Upon written request during the Content Retention Period, we will provide your Content to you as follows: company logo file(s), image files, and text. Content exports shall not include our proprietary design templates or themes, or any customized elements. If your domain name was originally purchased by us, or you transferred your domain name ownership to us, we agree to work with you in good faith to transfer your domain name to you, and will use commercially reasonable efforts to do so. At the end of the Content Retention Period, if you have not worked with us to transfer your domain, we will relinquish control of your domain name and release it back to the TLD Registry. We will not pay any renewal or other domain name-related fees or costs after termination of the Website Services.
