Plume WorkPass Membership and Cloud Services Agreement

This Plume WorkPass Membership and Cloud Services Agreement is between Plume Design, Inc. (“Plume,” “we,” or “us”) and the person or entity who registered an account with Plume (“you,” “your,” or “user”) and governs your use of Plume’s cloud services, the Plume WorkPass App, and Plume’s related mobile applications (together, the “Plume WorkPass Services”) and your WorkPass Membership (“WorkPass Membership”) necessary to enable and use those Plume WorkPass Services. This Plume WorkPass Membership and Cloud Services Agreement is a legally binding contract between you and Plume regarding your use of the Plume WorkPass Services and your WorkPass Membership.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING TERMS CAREFULLY.

BY CLICKING “I ACCEPT,” OR BY OTHERWISE ACTIVATING A WORKPASS MEMBERSHIP OR ACCESSING OR USING THE PLUME WORKPASS SERICES, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT, AS A CONDITION TO SUCH ACTIVATION, ACCESS, AND/OR USE, (1) YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD, (2) YOU ARE AUTHORIZED TO ACCEPT ON BEHALF OF, REPRESENT AND LEGALLY BIND YOURSELF, YOUR COMPANY OR OTHER ENTITY, AND (3) HEREBY DO ACCEPT, THE FOLLOWING TERMS AND CONDITIONS, INCLUDING PLUME’S PRIVACY POLICY (TOGETHER, THESE “TERMS”). If you are not eligible, or do not agree to the Terms, then you do not have our permission to use the WORKPASS MEMBERSHIP OR PLUME WORKPASS SERVICES. YOUR ACTIVATION, ACCESS, AND/OR USE OF THE WORKPASS MEMBERSHIP OR PLUME WORKPASS SERVICES CONSTITUTES AN AGREEMENT BY PLUME AND BY YOU TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS.

ARBITRATION NOTICE. Except for certain kinds of disputes described in Section 15, you agree that disputes arising under these Terms will be resolved by binding, individual arbitration, and BY ACCEPTING THESE TERMS, YOU AND PLUME ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. YOU AGREE TO GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT to assert or defend your rights under this contract (except for matters that may be taken to small claims court). Your rights will be determined by a NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR and NOT a judge or jury. (See Section 15.)

1. OVERVIEW; RELATION TO OTHER AGREEMENTS

The Plume WorkPass Services work in conjunction with Plume’s hardware products (“Plume Product(s)”) and certain third-party hardware products, in a manner designed to improve and give users more control over their internet experience, including by functioning as an adaptive WiFi system. To access and use the Plume WorkPass Services, it is necessary to have an active WorkPass Membership (see Section 3). These Terms govern your use of the Plume WorkPass Services, Plume Products, and your WorkPass Membership. Your purchase of any Plume Product and WorkPass Membership subscription is governed by the Plume Terms of Sale and, as to the Plume Products, the Limited Warranty. The software embedded in the Plume Products (and any related software updates) (“Product Software”) is licensed and governed by the End User License Agreement. Users interact with and control the Plume WorkPass Services via Plume’s WorkPass Android and iOS mobile applications (the “Plume WorkPass App”). For more details on Plume WorkPass Services’ features and functionalities, please see Section 3.

2. ACCESS AND USE

2.1 Limited License. Subject to your complete and ongoing compliance with these Terms, Plume grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to access and use the Plume WorkPass Services in connection with your WorkPass Membership.

2.2 License Restrictions. Except and solely to the extent such a restriction is impermissible under applicable law, you may not: (a) reproduce, distribute, publicly display, or publicly perform the Plume WorkPass Services; (b) make modifications to the Plume WorkPass Services; or (c) interfere with or circumvent any feature of the Plume WorkPass Services, including any security or access control mechanism. If you are prohibited under applicable law from using the Plume WorkPass Services, you may not use them.

2.3 Use Requirements

a. WorkPass Membership. To use the Plume WorkPass Services, it is necessary to have an active WorkPass Membership. Please see Section 3 (WorkPass Memberships) for additional terms applicable to WorkPass Memberships.

b. Devices; Software. Use of the Plume WorkPass Services may require compatible devices, Internet access, and certain software (fees may apply), may require periodic updates, and may be affected by the performance of these factors. The latest version of required software may be required for certain transactions or features. You agree that meeting these requirements is your responsibility.

c. Accounts. To access most features of the Plume WorkPass Services, you must register for an account. When you register for an account, you may be required to provide us, or the applicable Plume Partner (as defined below), with some information about yourself or your business, such as your name, business or trade name, and email address. You agree that the information you provide to us is accurate and that you will keep it accurate and up-to-date at all times. When you register, you may be asked to provide a password. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and any such password, and you accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account. If you believe that your account is no longer secure, then you must immediately notify us at support@plume.com.

You are responsible for ensuring that your Employees’ use of the Employee Wi-Fi Network complies with these Terms and you are responsible for your Employees’ use of the Plume WorkPass Service sin all respects.

f. Automatic Updates. Plume may, from time to time, develop patches, bug fixes, updates, upgrades and other modifications (“Updates”) to improve the performance of the Plume WorkPass Services (including the Plume WorkPass App) and/or the Product Software. These may be automatically installed without providing any additional notice or receiving any additional consent. You consent to this automatic update. If you do not want such Updates, your remedy is to terminate your account and stop using the Plume WorkPass Services and the Plume Products. If you do not terminate a previously created account, you will receive Updates automatically. You acknowledge that you may be required to install Updates to use the Plume WorkPass Services and the Plume Products and you agree to install any Updates that Plume provides promptly. Your continued use of the Plume WorkPass Services and the Plume Products is your agreement to the End User License Agreement with respect to updated Product Software; and any change or updates that Plume may make to these Terms or the End User License Agreement over time.

g. Reliability of Services. You acknowledge that the Plume WorkPass Services, including remote access and mobile notifications, are not error-free or 100% reliable and 100% available. Proper functioning of the Plume WorkPass Services relies and is dependent on, among other things, the transmission of data through the wi-fi network, enabled wireless device (such as a phone or tablet) and broadband internet access, for which Plume is not responsible, and may be interrupted, delayed, refused, or otherwise limited for a variety of reasons, including insufficient coverage, power outages, termination of service and access, environmental conditions, interference, non-payment of applicable fees and charges, unavailability of radio frequency channels, system capacity, upgrades, repairs or relocations, and priority access by emergency responders in the event of a disaster or emergency (collectively, “Service Interruptions”). You understand that Service Interruptions may result in the Plume WorkPass Services being unreliable or unavailable for the duration of the Service Interruption. Although we will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify you of Service Interruption (including via the mobile app, email, or through our website), we cannot and do not guarantee that you will receive notifications within any given time, or at all. YOU AGREE THAT YOU WILL NOT RELY ON THE PLUME WORKPASS SERVICES FOR ANY LIFE SAFETY OR CRITICAL PURPOSES. The Plume WorkPass Services may be suspended temporarily, without notice, for security reasons, systems failure, maintenance and repair, or other circumstances. You agree that you will not be entitled to any refund or rebate for such suspensions. Plume does not offer any specific uptime guarantee for the Plume WorkPass Services.

3. WORKPASS MEMBERSHIPS

3.1 Generally. To use the Plume WorkPass Services, it is necessary to have an active WorkPass Membership. Plume offers WorkPass Membership subscriptions for sale at its online store, and through various authorized resellers. In addition, Plume partners with other companies (e.g., internet service providers) who may make WorkPass Memberships available as part of their offerings to their customers (“Plume Partners”).

3.2 Membership Subscriptions.

a. Purchased from Plume. If you purchased your WorkPass Membership subscription directly from Plume or its authorized reseller, that subscription will begin on the earlier of (i) when you first claim a Plume Product to that WorkPass Membership, and (ii) 60 days after shipment of the Plume Products ordered with WorkPass Membership. The date your subscription begins will be deemed the Subscription Billing Date (as defined in the Terms of Sale) for your WorkPass Membership. Your WorkPass Membership subscription will continue from that date for the period indicated in the applicable Order Confirmation (as defined in the Terms of Sale), and may automatically renew until automatic renewals are cancelled in accordance with the Terms of Sale. If you wish to cancel an automatically renewing WorkPass Membership subscription, please see our Terms of Sale, available here.

b. Provided by a Plume Partner. If your WorkPass Membership is provided by a Plume Partner (a “Partner Membership”), Plume’s obligation to enable the Plume WorkPass Services in connection with that membership is governed by Plume’s agreement with that Plume Partner, and your right to a Partner Membership is governed by your agreement with that Plume Partner. Please note that the Plume Partner that provides your Partner Membership, and not Plume, is responsible for support for Plume Products and Plume WorkPass Services when you are using your Partner Membership.

c. Transfer. WorkPass Memberships are not transferrable between accounts. Once a WorkPass Membership is claimed to an account (e.g., you claim one WorkPass Membership to your account in connection with your small business’ network, and you claim a second Plume Membership to your account in connection with a second location), that WorkPass Membership cannot be transferred to another account with Plume. In addition, to use a Plume Product that was associated with one account with a new or different account, a new or different valid WorkPass Membership subscription (including payment of new WorkPass Membership subscription fees) will be required to complete the setup of same hardware in connection with the new or different account.

d. Passive Service Mode. Following expiration of an active WorkPass Membership subscription, the Plume Products and the Plume WorkPass App used in connection with that WorkPass Membership may function in a limited manner (together, “Passive Service Mode”). Specifically, when functioning in Passive Service Mode: (i) your Plume Products will be restricted to serving as a static Wi-Fi system and will not receive Plume cloud-enabled performance, security, and usability enhancements; and (ii) the Plume WorkPass App features will be restricted to basic network management and Wi-Fi configuration, viewing of Plume Products, and viewing of network devices. Plume Products will continue to receive firmware updates in accordance with Plume’s then-current support policies regardless of WorkPass Membership status. To avoid doubt, Passive Service Mode is only available following expiration of an active WorkPass Membership acquired directly from Plume, and may not be available in connection with Plume hardware purchased from a Plume Partner or other reseller. If you have a Partner Membership, please review your agreement with the applicable Plume Partner for details about what happens following expiration of your membership.

4. AVAILABILITY. The Plume WorkPass Services, or any feature or part thereof, may not be available in all languages or in all countries and Plume makes no representation that the Plume WorkPass Services, or any feature or part thereof, is appropriate or available for use in any particular location. To the extent you choose to access and use the Plume WorkPass Services, you do so at your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with any applicable laws.

5. MODIFICATIONS

5.1 Terms. We reserve the right to change these Terms on a going-forward basis at any time. Please check these Terms periodically for changes. If a change to these Terms materially modifies your rights or obligations, we may require that you accept the modified Terms in order to continue to use the Plume WorkPass Services. Material modifications are effective upon your acceptance of the modified Terms. Immaterial modifications are effective upon publication. Except as expressly permitted in this Section 5, these Terms may be amended only by a written agreement signed by authorized representatives of the parties to these Terms. Disputes arising under these Terms will be resolved in accordance with the version of these Terms that was in effect at the time the dispute arose.

5.2 Plume WorkPass Services. Plume reserves the right to modify or discontinue the Plume WorkPass Services at any time (including by limiting or discontinuing certain features of the Plume WorkPass Services), temporarily or permanently, without notice to you. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Plume will have no liability for any change to the Plume WorkPass Services or any suspension or termination of your access to or use of the Plume WorkPass Services.

13. DISCLAIMERS; NO WARRANTIES.

THE PLUME WORKPASS SERVICES AND ALL MATERIALS AND CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE PLUME WORKPASS SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND ON AN “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS. PLUME AND ITS LICENSORS DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, RELATING TO THE PLUME WORKPASS SERVICES AND ALL MATERIALS AND CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE PLUME WORKPASS SERVICES, INCLUDING: (A) ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, QUIET ENJOYMENT, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT; AND (B) ANY WARRANTY ARISING OUT OF COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE, OR TRADE. PLUME DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE PLUME WORKPASS SERVICES OR ANY PORTION OF THE PLUME WORKPASS SERVICES, OR ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT OFFERED THROUGH THE PLUME WORKPASS SERVICES, WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR FREE OF ERRORS, VIRUSES, OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS, AND PLUME DOES NOT WARRANT THAT ANY OF THOSE ISSUES WILL BE CORRECTED.

NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED BY YOU FROM THE PLUME WORKPASS SERVICES OR PLUME ENTITIES OR ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE PLUME WORKPASS SERVICES WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY REGARDING ANY OF THE PLUME ENTITIES OR THE PLUME WORKPASS SERVICES THAT IS NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THESE TERMS. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE THAT MAY RESULT FROM THE PLUME WORKPASS SERVICES AND YOUR DEALING WITH ANY OTHER PLUME WORKPASS SERVICES USER. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOU USE ANY PORTION OF THE PLUME WORKPASS SERVICES AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION AND RISK, AND THAT WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR PROPERTY (INCLUDING YOUR COMPUTER SYSTEM OR MOBILE DEVICE USED IN CONNECTION WITH THE PLUME WORKPASS SERVICES) OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, INCLUDING USER CONTENT.

THE LIMITATIONS, EXCLUSIONS AND DISCLAIMERS IN THIS SECTION APPLY TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. Plume does not disclaim any warranty or other right that Plume is prohibited from disclaiming under applicable law.

14. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE PLUME ENTITIES BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY GUEST OR EMPLOYEE OR CONTRACTOR FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, OR ANY OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSS) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF, OR YOUR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE, THE PLUME WORKPASS SERVICES OR ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT ON THE PLUME WORKPASS SERVICES, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STATUTE, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT ANY PLUME ENTITY HAS BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF DAMAGE.

EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN SECTION 15.4 AND TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF THE PLUME ENTITIES TO YOU OR YOUR GUESTS OR EMPLOYEES OR CONTRACTORS FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE USE OF OR ANY INABILITY TO USE ANY PORTION OF THE PLUME WORKPASS SERVICES OR OTHERWISE UNDER THESE TERMS, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF: (A) THE AMOUNT YOU HAVE PAID TO PLUME FOR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE PLUME WORKPASS SERVICES IN THE 12 MONTHS PRIOR TO THE EVENT OR CIRCUMSTANCE GIVING RISE TO CLAIM (BUT NOT INCLUDING THE PURCHASE PRICE FOR ANY PRODUCTS OR SUBSCRIPTION SERVICES); OR (B) $100.

EACH PROVISION OF THESE TERMS THAT PROVIDES FOR A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES, OR EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES IS INTENDED TO AND DOES ALLOCATE THE RISKS BETWEEN THE PARTIES UNDER THESE TERMS. THIS ALLOCATION IS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN THE PARTIES. EACH OF THESE PROVISIONS IS SEVERABLE AND INDEPENDENT OF ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THESE TERMS. THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION 14 WILL APPLY EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

15. DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND ARBITRATION.

15.1 Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between you and Plume in the most expedient and cost effective manner, and except as described in Section 2, you and Plume agree that every dispute arising in connection with these Terms will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of these Terms, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of these Terms. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND PLUME ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

15.2 Exceptions. Despite the provisions of Section 15.1, nothing in these Terms will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to:

a. bring an individual action in small claims court;

b. pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available;

c. seek injunctive relief in a court of law in aid of arbitration; or

d. to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

15.3 Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and Plume will be settled under the Federal Arbitration Act and administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively, “AAA Rules”) as modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting Plume. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement.

15.4 Notice of Arbitration; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified U.S. Mail or by Federal Express (signature required) or, only if that other party has not provided a current physical address, then by electronic mail (“Notice of Arbitration”). Plume’s address for Notice is: Plume Legal, 290 S. California Ave #200, Palo Alto, CA 94306. The Notice of Arbitration must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice of Arbitration is received, you or Plume may commence an arbitration proceeding. All arbitration proceedings between the parties will be confidential unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Plume must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If the arbitrator awards you an amount higher than the last written settlement amount offered by Plume in settlement of the dispute prior to the award, Plume will pay to you the higher of: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator; or (ii) $10,000.

15.5 Fees. If you commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms, Plume will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than $10,000, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in Santa Clara, California, but if the claim is for $10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse Plume for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.

15.6 No Class Actions. YOU AND PLUME AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Plume agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

Your written notification must be mailed to Plume at the following address: Plume Legal, 290 S. California Ave #200, Palo Alto, CA 94306. Subject to Section 15.9 below, if you do not notify Plume in accordance with this Section 15.7, you agree to be bound by the arbitration and class-action waiver provisions of these Terms, including such provisions in any Terms revised after the date of your first acceptance. Such notification must include: (a) your name, (b) the email address associated with your Plume account, (c) your mailing address, (d) a statement that you do not wish to resolve disputes with Plume through arbitration. This notification affects these Terms only; if you previously entered into other arbitration agreements with Plume or enter into other such agreements in the future, your notification that you are opting out of the arbitration provision in these Terms shall not affect the other arbitration agreements between you and Plume.

15.9 Enforceability.
