• You are exclusively responsible for all communications sent using the Services, including compliance with all laws governing those communications such as the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (“TCPA”) and the CAN-SPAM Act, and you agree that you understand and will comply with those laws.

Modern is not responsible for your compliance with laws and does not represent that your use of the Services will comply with any laws.

• Modern is a technology platform communication service application provider only. Modern does not originate, send, or deliver any communications to any recipient via SMS, MMS, email, or other communication method;
• You, not Modern, are the maker or initiator of any communications. You control the message, timing, sending, fraud prevention, and call blocking.

• Email SMTP Access: As a new customer, you will have access to our email SMTP service for free, for a limited time. However, your usage of the service is subject to a fair usage policy and is not intended for permanent use. This free access can be revoked at any time.  If you require a higher sending limit, you will need to connect your own email service (Gsuite, Sendgrid, Mailgun etc.) or purchase credits through our pay-as-you-go system. By using our email SMTP service, you agree to abide by this fair usage policy and any additional terms and conditions that may apply.
• Any customer data provided to Modern through any means, including without limitation, by inbound text, data imports, tablet sign-ins, API calls or manual entry, only includes data from individuals who have explicitly opted into your communications program and have explicitly agreed to receive your communications (whether by SMS, MMS, email, voice communication or other method) in accordance with applicable law, including without limitation the TCPA.

7 . Payment

1. Fees. If you choose to purchase one or more of the Services provided on the Platform, you agree to pay all fees (“Fees”) associated with the Services. Our monthly subscription provides tiered pricing for different levels of Services and products based on the Services you choose to use. In addition to our monthly subscription Services, you may purchase add-in Services for a one-time Fee or recurring subscription Fees. Fees may change from time to time. All Fees are exclusive of any applicable communications service or telecommunication provider (e.g., carrier) fees or surcharges (collectively, “Communications Surcharges”). You will pay all Communications Surcharges associated with your use of the Services. Communications Surcharges will be shown as a separate line item on an invoice. All Fees and Communications Surcharges are nonrefundable.
2. Any charges incurred by your purchase or use of the Services will be billed to the credit card we have on file. In the event you sign up for a Service that is ongoing and incurs recurring charges (such as a subscription), such charges will be billed in advance of Service. You agree to provide us with accurate and complete billing information, including valid credit card information, your name, address, and telephone number, and to provide us with any changes in such information within 10 days of the change.

If you are passing the obligation to pay Platform-related Fees to your Clients, you are solely responsible for all related transactions, including but not limited to refunds and charge backs of such Fees that are passed on. Modern is not responsible for resolving issues related to costs passed on to your Clients. Any fees passed on to Clients or other third parties must be amounts charged by Modern, without increase or markup.

• Taxes. You are exclusively responsible for taxes and other governmental assessments (“Taxes”) associated with your use of the Platform, including all Taxes associated with the Services you order and any transactions you conduct with your Clients. Modern may collect Taxes from you as part of the Fees as it deems appropriate, and all Modern determinations regarding what Taxes to collect are final. Modern may recalculate and collect additional Taxes from you if it determines at any point that they are due. You will indemnify Modern for all Claims related to Taxes that are associated with your activities on the Platform, including any Taxes related to your transactions with your Clients, as described in Section 22. Taxes, like all Fees, are nonrefundable.
• Overdue Amounts. If, for any reason, your credit card company declines or otherwise refuses to pay the amount owed for the Services you have purchased, you agree that we may suspend or terminate performance of Services or delivery of products and may require you to pay any overdue Fees and other amounts incurred (including any third-party chargeback fees or penalties) by other means acceptable to us. In the event legal action is necessary to collect on balances due, you agree to reimburse us for all expenses incurred to recover sums due, including attorney fees and other legal expenses.
• Payment Disputes. You will notify us in writing within sixty (60) days of the date we bill you for any invoiced charges that you wish to dispute. You must pay all invoiced charges while the dispute is pending or you waive the right to pursue the dispute. Where you are disputing any fees, you must act reasonably and in good faith and cooperate diligently with us to resolve the dispute. All Modern determinations regarding your obligation to pay invoiced charges are final.
• No Refunds. Except as described below, all Fees assessed by Modern are non-refundable, and Modern does not provide Fee refunds or credits for partially used or unused subscriptions. If you sign up for a Service subscription but do not access the Service or Platform, you are still responsible for all Fees during the term of your subscription. If Modern chooses at its sole discretion to issue a refund or credit in one instance, we are under no obligation to issue the same refund or credit in the future.

We reserve the right to issue refunds or credits at our sole discretion in the following situations:

• Where we materially modify these Terms of Service or Privacy Notice during a billing period and such modification adversely affects you, we may refund a portion of your subscription Fee equal to the remaining unused term, as we determine appropriate or as may be required by applicable law. To be eligible for a refund, you must provide written notice that (a) identifies your account and (b) requests cancellation of the specific Service. The cancellation will be effective upon our receipt of your notice and our determination that you are authorized to effect such cancellation. Please refer to the “Communications and Contact Information” section below on how to provide notice to us.
• Where a modification or interruption of Services adversely affects you and alternative remedies, as specified in these Terms of Service, are not available, we may refund a portion of your paid subscription Fee equal to the remaining unused term of your subscription, as we determine appropriate or as may be required by applicable law.

Service Provision: Our platform includes a feature named “ContentAI”, accessible to monthly subscribers as part of their service package. The standard subscription fee covers access to the ContentAI feature, but please note that usage may incur additional charges not included within the subscription cost.

The term “lifetime” as used in reference to the purchase of Modern services and products denotes the active lifespan of the product, and not the life of the purchaser or any other implied duration. “Lifetime” is strictly tied to the period for which Modern maintains, supports, and offers the product.

Usage Fees: Usage of the ContentAI feature may be subject to additional fees. These charges depend on the usage level and will be billed separately from the subscription fee. Clear and transparent communication regarding these fees will be made before any additional charges are applied.

Complimentary Usage: We may occasionally offer free usage of the ContentAI feature. These promotions are subject to change or cessation at any point without notice. Such offerings do not imply the waiver of future usage charges unless explicitly stated in writing.

Pricing Adjustments: We retain the right to amend the fees related to the ContentAI feature usage at any point. These changes will be implemented immediately upon announcement on our platform or through direct communication with the subscriber. If these changes are not acceptable, subscribers may cancel their subscription according to our cancellation policy.

Non-payment: Failure to pay additional usage fees may result in suspension or termination of access to the ContentAI feature, consistent with our standard payment terms.

Terms Acceptance: Continued use of the ContentAI feature constitutes agreement to these terms. Any disagreements should result in immediate cessation of the ContentAI usage.

8 . Excessive Data Usage

Your excessive data use may cause the Service to be slow or unavailable. We have no liability for the effect that your excessive data use may have on Service performance. We may (1) suspend or terminate your use of the Service or (2) reduce the amount of data you are able to use, with or without advance notice, if we determine in our sole discretion that your data use is excessive, abusive or has a negative effect on the Services in any way.

We provide the Service on a tiered-pricing basis, and some tiers can process more data with less impact on Service performance. Contact us if you would like more information about pricing for data usage that may be more appropriate for your needs.

9 . Training

Modern may offer training to you related to how to use the Services. All training and associated information conveyed as part of it (“Training”) is as-is, with no warranty, as explained further in Section 21 (Disclaimer).
