Terms and conditions

By using Scopey, you acknowledge that you are familiar with the Terms & Conditions of our service and agree to abide by them.

These General Terms and Conditions of Service (the "Agreement") are entered into between the entity specified in the Order Confirmation for accessing The Services (referred to as the "Customer") and Scopey Ltd ("Scopey"), collectively referred to as the "Parties" or each as a "Party".

This Agreement encompasses all operational regulations, policies, and guidelines mentioned herein or published on scopey.com by Scopey, including but not limited to: (i) the Order Confirmation, which provides details about the Customer's order (the "Order Confirmation"); (ii) Scopey's terms and conditions for using the Site ("Site Terms of Use"); (iii) Scopey's guidelines on the usage, disclosure, and management of Customer data ("Privacy Policy"); (iv) Scopey's list of subprocessors ("Sub-processors"); and (v) Scopey's guidelines on Customer data processing ("Data Processing Agreement") (collectively referred to as "The Agreements"). Occasional updates may be made to the Agreement, its rules, policies, and guidelines for valid reasons such as enhancing existing features or ensuring compliance with applicable laws. In the event of significant changes to the Agreement, Scopey will notify the Customer accordingly, as deemed appropriate under the circumstances.

Definitions

1.1 Authorized User: the designated beneficiaries (e.g., employees, contractors, agents of the Customer) who are registered and authorized by Scopey to use The Services under this Agreement, subject to any restrictions specified in an applicable Order Confirmation.

1.2 Contract Templates: standard forms available on the Platform that serve as suggestions for commonly used agreements. These templates aim to streamline the contractual process and improve the site's user-friendliness, but they do not provide legal advice. Consequently, Scopey's Services and Contract Templates do not constitute legal advice, and the Customer is encouraged to seek external legal advice concerning the execution of legal documents, as also mentioned below in Section 9.

1.3 Order Confirmation: Specifications and details of the desired subscription that the Customer intends to order. An Order Confirmation does not hold any binding effect until both Scopey and the Customer duly execute it in accordance with Section 2, at which point it becomes part of this Agreement.

1.4 The Platform: Scopey's web-based system for drafting and managing contracts.

1.5 The Services: All features and functionalities, including websites and user interfaces, as well as all content and software applications associated with Scopey's comprehensive contract management platform, enabling users to electronically draft, send, sign, and automatically store all agreements in a centralized location.

1.6 User Content: Content created by the Customer on the Platform.

Acceptance

2.1 The Agreement becomes binding and effective for any use of the Services by the Customer upon the Customer's acceptance of the Order Confirmation, which can be done in one of the following ways: I. Electronically or physically signing the Order Confirmation and/or the Agreement through the Scopey Platform; or II. Clicking the designated "accept" button via a web form or a similar method.

2.2 Term of the Agreement

The Agreement becomes effective on the date when a valid Order Confirmation is executed in accordance with Section 2.1 (the "Effective Date") and remains in force for the duration specified in the Order Confirmation (the "Initial Term") or until terminated as per Section [2.3.1] and[/or] 13 (the Initial Term and any subsequent renewal of the Agreement collectively referred to as the "Term").

2.3 Automatic Renewal

2.3.1 On the last day of the Initial Term and on each subsequent anniversary of that date, the Agreement will automatically be renewed at Scopey's current standard non-discounted price for an additional period equal to the preceding subscription period, as specified in the applicable Order Confirmation. This renewal is subject to the terms referenced in the Order Confirmation, unless either Party notifies the other Party of its intent not to renew at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the current term. The Customer must send their notification of non-renewal to: support@scopey.co. Any such non-renewal shall be considered a termination of the Agreement for the purposes stated herein.

Payment Terms

3.1 Pricing and Tax

3.1.1 Unless otherwise specified in the Order Confirmation, all fees are stated in Euros, or as specified in the Order Confirmation, excluding any taxes. The price for the Customer's purchase of the Services is subject to applicable Value Added Tax (VAT) and any other mandatory taxes. Scopey will notify the Customer of the applicable VAT and taxes when signing up for the Services, and it is the Customer's responsibility to make the necessary payments for such VAT and taxes upon Scopey's invoice issuance.

3.1.2 The prices, features, and options of the Services are based on the subscription plan chosen by the Customer, which may include usage or overage fees. Scopey does not guarantee the indefinite availability of a specific subscription plan. Scopey reserves the right to modify the prices, features, or options included in a particular subscription plan without prior notice, provided that such changes will take effect from the Customer's next Term.

3.1.3 Scopey will notify the Customer in writing of any changes in its prices for the subsequent renewal term no later than 45 (forty-five) days before the previous term expires.

3.1.4 As specified in the Order Confirmation, the Customer will be invoiced or billed via credit card payment. Unless otherwise stated in the Order Confirmation: (i) The Services are non-cancellable during the Term, and all fees are non-refundable; and (ii) Payment for the Services and any applicable taxes is due upon acceptance of the Agreement and must be paid in advance as specified in the Order Confirmation for each period that the Agreement remains in effect. In the event of late payment, any outstanding amounts will accrue interest at a rate of 1.5% per month, along with an administration fee of DKK 100 for each reminder sent to the Customer regarding late payment. Additionally, if the Customer fails to pay any invoiced fees in accordance with this Agreement, Scopey may immediately suspend the Customer's access to the Scopey Service. Such suspension does not release the Customer from its obligation to pay the invoices or any other fees payable to Scopey under the relevant Order Confirmation.
