A. Services

A.1 Description of Services

The Services consist of virtual mail services administered through Company’s proprietary platform (the “Platform”). The Services include certain services which are provided by third parties not affiliated with the Company, including but not limited to a third providing PDF to mail functionality and a third party agent located in Customer ’s state of incorporation or domicile (the “Local Agent”), as designated and authorized by Customer pursuant to United States Postal Service Form 1583, titled “Application for Delivery of Mail Through Agent” (“Form 1583”). As part of the Services, and subject to execution of Form 1583 by Customer, the Local Agent will:

  • Scan all hardcopy mail and upload into the Platform for receipt by the corresponding Customer.
  • Forward mail to the Customer as requested (postage paid by Customer).
  • Shred uploaded mail upon Customer request.
  • Notify Customers of received mail, forwarded mail status, and respond to Customer queries regarding mail received.

All communications between the Local Agent and Customer will be through the Platform, and subject to the terms of this Agreement. Customer acknowledges and agrees that its access to and use of the Services may be affected by factors outside of Company’s control, including but not limited to actions and omissions of third parties and the requirements set forth by the Local Agent or other third parties, and Company will not be liable or bear any responsibility for such factors. Customer further acknowledges that the services by the Local Agent are limited and that (a) the Local Agent supports the receipt, forwarding, and other processing of only mail and not packages, (b) the Local Agent does not receive or otherwise process mail for individuals or entities other than the Customer, and any mail that is not labeled with the Customer ’s company name will be rejected by the Local Agent, and (c) the Local Agent’s forwarding service may not be available to every Customer and will be subject to additional fees. As part of the Services, the Local Agent will assign a mailing address for Customer; however, such address may be changed and/or disabled, at the Local Agent or Company’s discretion, upon written notice to Customer. If disabled, Company or the Local Agent will use reasonable efforts to assign a new address to Customer.

A.2 Subscriptions

Customer will need to purchase a subscription to the Platform to access the Services. Customer may elect a subscription for a bundle of features (a “Mailroom Bundle”), which include Customer ’s right to access the Services and may include other products or services that may be offered by the Company through the Platform. All subscription descriptions and pricing are set forth on the Ordering Page (as defined below). Customer ’s subscription will renew automatically at the then- current rates for additional periods as set forth on the Ordering Page or if not specified thereon, then annual periods. Company reserves the right to change subscription prices at the end of each subscription term and will provide notice of the change on the Platform or in an email to Customer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any fees payable to a state authority or other governmental authority is subject to change at any time, upon written notice. Customer ’s continued use of the Services after the price change becomes effective constitutes Customer ’s agreement to pay the changed amount upon renewal of your subscription and Customer will automatically be charged at the start of each new subscription period in accordance with Section 3. To avoid future subscription charges, Customer must submit to Company (a) proof of change of the Company’s mailing address and (b) written notice indicating Customer ’s desire to cancel its subscription at least ten business days before the subscription period renewal date by emailing support@123Start.biz .

Subject to the foregoing period noted to avoid renewal charges, Customers may cancel at any time and will be permitted to access and use the Services for the remaining period in the then-effective subscription term. All subscription fees are non-refundable and no credits shall be given for any partially used periods.

A.3 Subscription Changes

If Customer elects to change its subscription from a higher tier Mailroom Bundle to a lower tier Mailroom Bundle (“Downgrade”), such Downgrade, including the new fees and any loss of access to features and functionalities provided in the higher tier, will take effect at the start of the next subscription period. In order to Downgrade, Customers with mailing addresses in the states of New York, California, or Florida must submit to Company (a) proof of change of the Company’s mailing address and (b) written notice indicating Customer ’s desire to cancel its subscription at least ten business days before the subscription period renewal date by emailing support@123Start.biz .

No refunds or credits shall be given for any Downgrade. If Customer elects to change its subscription to a higher tier Mailroom Bundle or to any Mailroom Bundle that includes functionalities not included in Customer ’s current subscription (“Upgrade”), Customer will be charged the difference in subscription fees required for the new Mailroom Bundle and such Upgrade will take effect following Customer ’s payment.

In the event that the Recipient is required by law to make any disclosure of any of the Confidential Information of the Discloser, by subpoena, judicial or administrative order or otherwise, the Recipient will first give written notice of such requirement to the Discloser, and will permit the Discloser to intervene in any relevant proceedings to protect its interests in the Confidential Information, and provide full cooperation and assistance to the Discloser in seeking to obtain such protection.
