Terms of Service

PLEASE READ THESE CUSTOMER TERMS OF SERVICE CAREFULLY.

This is a contract between you (the Customer) and us (Boma Technologies Limited). It describes the services we will provide to you, how we will work together and other aspects of our business relationship. It is a legal document so some of the language is necessarily “legalese” but we have tried to make it as readable as possible. These terms are so important though that we cannot provide these services unless you agree to them. By using the Subscription Service or receiving the Consulting Services, you are agreeing to these terms.

We periodically update these terms and if you subscribe to our Marketing Product or CRM, we will use our best endeavours to let you know.

The ‘General Terms’ below set out the provisions that apply to our product

2. The Subscription Service

2.1 Access. During the Subscription Term we will provide you access to use the Subscription Service as described in this Agreement.

  1. 2 Limits. The limits that apply to you will be specified in your Order Form, this Agreement or on our Pricing Page. You will be charged fees associated with all Billable Users. For additional limits and terms that apply to specific products, see the ‘Product Terms’ section below. If we make modifications to the limits set forth on the Pricing Page that would negatively impact you, these modifications will not apply to you until the start of your next Renewal Subscription Term. On renewal, the current product usage limits on our Pricing Page will apply to your subscription, unless you and we otherwise agree.

2.3 Modifications. We modify the Subscription Service from time to time, including by adding or deleting features and functions, in an effort to improve your experience. But we will not make changes to the Subscription Service that materially reduce the functionality of the Subscription Service provided to you during the Subscription Term. We might provide some or all elements of the Subscription Service through third party service providers.

2.4 Additional Features. You may subscribe to additional features of the Subscription Service by agreeing to a new Order Form.

3. Customer Support

3.1 Support. Support is included in your Subscription Fee. We accept emailed support questions 24 Hours per Day x 7 Days per Week at support@bomamarketing.com. Webform responses are provided during phone support hours only. We attempt to respond to web form support questions within one business day; in practice, our responses are generally even faster. We do not promise or guarantee any specific response time.

3.2 Availability. We try to make the Subscription Service available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, except for planned down-time for maintenance.

3.3 Consulting Services. You may purchase Consulting Services by contacting us direct at info@bomamarketing.com. Unless otherwise described in a Statement of Work or Order Form, the Consulting Services we provide will be delivered in English.  Fees for these Consulting Services are in addition to your Subscription Fee. If you purchase Consulting Services that recur, they will be considered part of your subscription and will renew in accordance with the ‘Renewal Subscription Term’ section below.  Unless otherwise agreed, all Consulting Services are performed remotely.

To enable us to provide the Consulting Services, you must provide our Consultants with full and safe access to your premises as required. Where applicable, you will provide, at your cost, suitable materials, equipment, well maintained Internet connections and facilities (including use of telephone and support services) as we and/or our Consultants reasonably require to carry out the Consulting Services.

You will reimburse us our reasonable cost for all expenses incurred in connection with the Consulting Services performed on-site. Any invoices or other requests for reimbursements will be due and payable within thirty (30) days of the date of the invoice.

If there are a specific number of hours included in the Consulting Services purchased, those hours will expire as indicated in the applicable description, which expiration period will commence upon purchase (the “Expiration Period”).  If there are deliverables included in the Consulting Services purchased, it is estimated that those deliverables will be completed within the time period indicated as the delivery period in the applicable description, which delivery period will commence upon purchase (the “Delivery Period”). If the Consulting Services provided are not complete at the end of the Delivery Period due to your failure to make the necessary resources available to us or to perform your obligations, such Consulting Services will be deemed to be complete at the end of the Delivery Period.  If the Consulting Services provided are not complete at the end of the Delivery Period due to our failure to make the necessary resources available to you or to perform our obligations, the Delivery Period will be extended to allow us to complete such Consulting Services.

We might provide some or all elements of the Consulting Services through third party service providers.  Consulting Services are non-cancellable and all fees for Consulting Services are non-refundable.

4. Fees and Payments

4.1 Subscription Fees. The Subscription Fee will remain fixed during the Subscription Term unless you (i) exceed your Contacts Limit, (ii) upgrade products or base packages, or (iii) subscribe to additional features or products, including additional Contacts. You may downgrade your subscription during the Subscription Term by reducing your Contacts and falling below your Contact Limits. We will monitor or audit remotely the number of Contacts in the Subscription Service and the number of emails that you send on the Subscription Service. This information is also available to you on your Billing Page in your BOMA Account. Any Subscription Fees will be due and payable monthly OR annually from the Initial Subscription Term commencement date.

4.2 Fee Adjustments in Next Billing Period. If you exceed your Contact Limits in a Billing Period, then your Subscription Fee for the next Billing Period will be increased to the tier price (as set forth on our Pricing Page) that corresponds with the maximum number of Contacts from the prior Billing Period. Your Subscription Fee will reflect the increased tier pricing as at the date that you exceeded your Contact Limits and will be payable from the next Billing Period in the Subscription Term. Each Billing Period during the Subscription Term we assess factors like Maximum Contacts, your entitlements under the Subscription Service and the number of emails you sent to assess the suitability of your Subscription Fee. At your request, we will provide you the information we used to reach our conclusion. Once increased, your Subscription Fee will decrease if there is a subsequent reduction in the number of Contacts in your account.

4.3 Fee Adjustments During a Billing Period. The Subscription Fee will increase during the course of a Billing Period if you exceed your Contact Limits in a Billing Period. In this case, the Subscription Fee will increase to the tier price which corresponds with the number of your Contacts from the current Billing Period. The Subscription Fee will change during a Billing Period to the corresponding package and tier price (as set forth on our Pricing Page) if the number of your Contacts changes or you subscribe to additional features for use during the Billing Period. You may be liable to pay an additional fee in this Billing Period to reflect this fee adjustment. In the event that you would be subject to a fee adjustment yet opt to cancel your Subscription before the next Billing Period, the difference between your current Subscription Fee and the increase in Subscription Fee will be due and payable before you cancel your Subscription.

4.4 Payment by credit card. If you are paying by credit card, you authorise us to charge your credit card or bank account for all fees payable during the Subscription Term. You further authorise us to use a third party to process payments, and consent to the disclosure of your payment information to such third party.

4.5 Payment against invoice. If you are paying by invoice, we will invoice you no more than forty-five (45) days before the beginning of the Initial Subscription Term and each subsequent Billing Period, and other times during the Subscription Term when fees are payable. All amounts invoiced are due and payable within thirty (30) days from the date of the invoice, unless otherwise specified in the Order Form.

4.6 Payment Information. You will keep your contact information, billing information and credit card information (where applicable) up to date. Changes may be made on your Billing Page within your BOMA Account. All payment obligations are non-cancellable and all amounts paid are non-refundable, except as specifically provided for in this Agreement. All fees are due and payable in advance throughout the Subscription Term. If you are a BOMA partner that purchases on behalf of a client, you agree to be responsible for the Order Form and to guarantee payment of all fees.

4.7 Sales Tax. All fees are exclusive of taxes, which we will charge as applicable. You agree to pay any taxes applicable to your use of the Subscription Service and performance of Consulting Services. You shall have no liability for any taxes based upon our gross revenues or net income. If you are located in the European Union, all fees are exclusive of any VAT and you represent that you are registered for VAT purposes in your member state. At our request, you will provide us with the VAT registration number under which you are registered in your member state. If you are subject to GST, all fees are exclusive of GST. If you are required to deduct or withhold any tax, you must pay the amount deducted or withheld as required by law and pay us an additional amount so that we receive payment in full as if there were no deduction or withholding.

5. Subscription Term and Renewal

5.1 Initial Subscription Term. The initial subscription term shall begin on the effective date of your subscription and expire at the end of the period selected during the subscription process (“Initial Subscription Term”).

5.2 Renewal Subscription Term. This Agreement will automatically renew on a monthly OR annual basis (“Renewal Subscription Term”) or as agreed in writing between the parties. The Renewal Subscription Term will be on the current terms and conditions of this Agreement, and subject to the renewal pricing provided for in your Order Form or, if not specified in the Order Form, on our standard pricing available on our Pricing Page. See the ‘Limits’ section above for the applicability of product usage limits on renewal. Your Subscription Fee is subject to change in accordance with Clause 4.

5.3 Cancellation of Subscription. The Subscription Term will automatically renew on a monthly OR annual basis until it is cancelled. You can cancel your Subscription at any time by visiting the billing page located at https://app.bomamarketing.com/settings/billing. In the event that you cancel your Subscription, you will be liable to pay any fees payable under the current Subscription Term. This is the case even if the Subscription Term had recently commenced.
