By clicking on the Accept button below and thereby submitting the Z57, INC. (“Z57”) online registration form, (1) the person doing so represents that he or she is at least 18 years of age and legally capable of forming a binding contract; (2) whether such person is submitting the registration form on behalf of himself or herself or on behalf of any business, organization, or other entity of any kind, such person represents and warrants that he or she is authorized to sign for and bind the contracting party (“YOU”); and (3) you agree to be bound by these Z57 Standard Terms and Conditions, together with all amendments and collectively with all applicable Z57 rules and policies, including the Z57 Privacy Policy (collectively, the “Agreement”).  The Agreement is between you and Z57, as of the date and time that you complete the online registration process at the site by clicking the Accept button below (the “Effective Date”).  The Agreement applies to all products and services provided by Z57 to you, which may include, without limitation, any one or more of: the Property Pulse Product, the SEM Product, internet domain names, websites, website design services, traffic acquisition services, display advertising, pixel creation and placement, list segmentation, and marketing coaching (each and collectively, as applicable, the “Product”).  References to “we” and “our” refer to Z57.  References to “you” “your” and “client” refer to the recipient or user of the Product, including your successors and assigns, and your agents, employees or independent contractors.

THIS AGREEMENT COVERS IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE PRODUCT, AS WELL PROVISIONS ABOUT DISCLAIMERS OF WARRANTIES AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY, A CLASS ACTION WAIVER, AND A COMMITMENT TO RESOLVE DISPUTES BY ARBITRATION INSTEAD OF IN COURT.

AS DISCUSSED FURTHER BELOW, WE RESERVE THE RIGHT, IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION, TO CHANGE THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING THE PRIVACY POLICY) FROM TIME TO TIME, WITHOUT PRIOR NOTICE.  YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR REVIEWING THE AGREEMENT REGULARLY.  YOUR ACCESS TO ANY PART OF THE PRODUCT IS DEEMED TO BE YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT AS IT EXISTS AT THE TIME YOU ACCESS THE PRODUCT.

Registration 

  1. You agree, represent, and warrant that you shall at all times provide accurate information when registering an account with Z57 and when using the Product, and that you shall update and maintain as accurate all such information during your use of the Product. You may update the information in your profile, change your password, manage notifications, view this Agreement, and change your settings within the Product.

Products and Product Terms

  1. This Agreement shall apply to each Product you purchase from Z57. Because the Products may be subject to different terms and conditions (as further described below) and because you may purchase Products at different times, each time you purchase a Product, you consent to the terms and conditions of this Agreement as a separate agreement between you and Z57 as applied to the purchased Product for the applicable term for the purchased Product.

Property Pulse Product

  1. All Z57 websites include a domain with the setup fee. Your new website will be setup on a domain purchased by Z57. In the event you wish to use a domain name that you already own, you are responsible for modifying your current domain.  If you require Z57’s assistance to modify your domain, a service fee will apply.
  2. Z57 will renew your website domain purchased at the point of sale each year, as long as you are an active client.
  3. You are responsible for providing all content for your site. Stock photos and graphics provided by Z57 will be used until you submit your own content. You should take extreme care in securing and providing your own content for posting.  You must ensure that you own or are properly licensed to use all content you add to your website.
  4. You may edit and manage your website through the Property Pulse Admin Panel. Edits, upgrades, and/or color changes outside the scope of the Property Pulse Admin Panel may be available at an additional cost through Z57’s support services.
  5. You authorize Z57 to automatically populate your multiple listing service (MLS) listing information to your website, in those territories where such MLS functionality is available. Please be advised that Z57 may discontinue this functionality, without prior notice, if your MLS restricts this capability.
  6. If the MLS to which you are a member requires signed documentation before Z57 may implement internet data exchange (IDX) on your website, you will receive the document via e-mail. You must email the completed document back to Z57 immediately in order that we may install IDX on your website once approval is received, if applicable.
  7. Your site may be launched without IDX enabled. IDX may remain disabled until such time as you return any required paperwork and it is approved by your MLS.
  8. You are responsible for incremental fees, if any, charged by your MLS.

SEM Product

  1. The SEM Product is a traffic generation program that is segmented into three-month guarantee periods. The first guarantee period begins when the SEM Product is launched.
  2. The SEM Product guarantees an average monthly website traffic minimum, consisting of paid and organic traffic, for each guarantee period. The average monthly website traffic is calculated as the single monthly average of total website traffic over the three-month guarantee period. The guaranteed average monthly website traffic minimum is detailed in the SEM Program Details email sent to you upon acceptance of your registration.  Due to industry seasonality, the average monthly website traffic minimum is reduced by 20% in November and December each year.
  3. If the SEM Product does not deliver the average monthly website traffic minimum for a guarantee period, you will be eligible for a credit for the difference between the average monthly website traffic minimum and the actual average monthly website traffic (a “Shortfall”). In order to receive a credit for a Shortfall during a guarantee period, you must make the request to Z57’s Client Development Department within 60 days of the end of the applicable guarantee period.
  4. The credit offered by Z57 is your sole and exclusive remedy for a Shortfall. You acknowledge and agree that a Shortfall is not a material breach of this Agreement and you may not terminate this Agreement for one or more Shortfalls during the term of the Agreement.
  5. You understand that Z57’s SEM experts will use information about your business to generate SEM visits, as detailed in the SEM Program Details email. No changes may be made to the SEM Program Details once the SEM campaign begins.
  6. You shall not engage, or seek to have anyone engage on your behalf, in any of the following prohibited actions (“Prohibited Actions”). Engaging in one or more of the Prohibited Actions may result in suspension of SEM traffic delivery, at Z57’s discretion, but is not a basis for you to terminate the Agreement.

(a) Creating link exchange pages on the website or participating in link exchange schemes and spamming programs.
(b) Removing the HTML sitemap, or removing links to it, from any page.
(c) Removing internal links created by Z57.
(d) Removing or altering metadata created by Z57.
(e) Removing or altering content created by Z57.
(f) Changing or redirecting the domain name.

  1. You shall comply with the following recommendations outlined in Google’s Webmaster Guidelines. Failure to comply with one or more of the following recommendations may result in suspension of SEM traffic delivery, at Z57’s discretion, but is not a basis for you to terminate the Agreement.

(a) Avoid hidden text or hidden links.
(b) Don’t use cloaking or sneaky redirects.
(c) Don’t send automated queries to Google.
(d) Don’t load pages with irrelevant keywords.
(e) Don’t create multiple pages, subdomains, or domains with substantially duplicate content.  In particular, when creating new content pages, ensure unique meta tags on each page.
(f) Don’t create pages with malicious behavior, such as phishing or installing viruses, Trojans, or other badware.
(g) Avoid “doorway” pages created just for search engines, or other “cookie cutter” approaches such as affiliate programs with little or no original content.
(h) If your site participates in an affiliate program, make sure that your site adds value.  Provide unique and relevant content that gives users a reason to visit your site first.

  1. If SEM traffic delivery is suspended due to your breach of this Agreement and the breach is not remedied to the satisfaction of Z57 within 30 calendar days of notification of the suspension, traffic may be permanently suspended and the remainder of payments due under this Agreement will immediately become due.
  2. You may not conduct any paid traffic campaigns in conjunction with Z57’s delivery of the SEM Product. If you are conducting a paid traffic campaign before the SEM Product is launched, you shall turn it off prior to the SEM Product launch.

Compliance with Applicable Laws and Industry Standards

  1. You shall use all services offered by Z57 lawfully and in compliance with all federal, state, and local laws and regulations, as well as all industry standards and best practices.

  4. CCPA Obligations

(a)         Z57 will only collect, use, retain, or disclose personal information of California consumers for the Contracted Business Purposes for which you  provide personal information or permit personal information access in accordance with your instructions. “Contracted Business Purposes” means the services and/or products described in this Agreement  for which Z57 receives or accesses personal information. Any terms defined in the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, as amended (Cal. Civ. Code §§ 1798.100 to 1798.199), and any related regulations or guidance provided by the California Attorney General (“CCPA”), including “personal information” and “business purposes” carry the same meaning in this Section.
(b)         Z57 will not collect, use, retain, disclose, sell, or otherwise make personal information of California consumers available for Z57’s own commercial purposes or in a way that does not comply with the CCPA. If a law requires Z57 to disclose personal information of a California consumer for a purpose unrelated to the Contracted Business Purpose, Z57 will first inform you of the legal requirement and give you an opportunity to object or challenge the requirement, unless the law prohibits such notice.
(c)          Z57 will limit collection, use, retention, and disclosure of personal information of California consumers to activities reasonably necessary and proportionate to achieve the Contracted Business Purposes or another compatible operational purpose.
(d)         Z57 will promptly comply with any request or instruction from you requiring Z57 to provide, amend, transfer, or delete the personal information of California consumers, or to stop, mitigate, or remedy any unauthorized processing.
(e)         If the Contracted Business Purposes require the collection of personal information from California consumers on your behalf, Z57 will provide a CCPA-compliant notice addressing use and collection methods.
(f)          If the CCPA permits, Z57 may aggregate, deidentify, or anonymize personal information of California consumers so it no longer meets the personal information definition, and may use such aggregated, deidentified, or anonymized data for its own research and development purposes. Z57 will not attempt to or actually re-identify any previously aggregated, deidentified, or anonymized data and will contractually prohibit downstream data recipients from attempting to or actually re-identifying such data.

  1. Assistance with Your CCPA Obligations

(a)         Z57 will reasonably cooperate and assist you with meeting the your CCPA compliance obligations and responding to CCPA-related inquiries, including providing a template privacy policy for any website hosted by Z57 on your behalf, responding to verifiable consumer requests, taking into account the nature of Z57’s processing and the information available to Z57.  Z57’s provision of a template privacy policy does not constitute and is not a substitute for legal advice.
(b)         Z57 will notify you immediately if it receives any complaint, notice, or communication that directly or indirectly relates either party’s compliance with the CCPA related to the Contracted Business Purposes. Specifically, Z57 will notify you within 15 working days if it receives a verifiable consumer request under the CCPA.

  2. CCPA Warranties

(a)         Both parties will comply with all applicable requirements of the CCPA when collecting, using, retaining, or disclosing personal information of California consumers.
(b)         Z57 warrants that it has no reason to believe any CCPA requirements or restrictions prevent it from providing any of the Contracted Business Purposes or otherwise performing under this Agreement. Z57 will promptly notify you of any changes to the CCPA’s requirements that may adversely affect its performance under the Agreement.

Governing Law

  1. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California and the federal laws of the United States of America, without regard to the choice or conflicts of law provisions of any jurisdiction.
  2. Any controversy, claim, or dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement (or the interpretation, performance, or breach of this Agreement) or any Product or other product, service, or content provided or made available by Z57 (a “Dispute”) shall be solely and exclusively resolved according to the procedures set forth in this section. If we are unable to resolve any Dispute through informal means, either party may initiate binding arbitration of such Dispute. Except as described in this section, the arbitration shall be initiated and conducted according to the Rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect (the “Arbitration Rules”).  The arbitration shall be conducted in the County of San Diego, California, before a single neutral arbitrator appointed in accordance with the Arbitration Rules.  The arbitrator’s decision shall be controlled by this Agreement and any other applicable written agreement between us.  No Disputes may be arbitrated on a class or representative basis; arbitration shall decide only the individual Dispute and the arbitrator may not consolidate or join the claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated.  The arbitrator shall not have the power to award punitive damages against any party.
  1. BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT YOU MAY HAVE TO JOIN CLAIMS WITH THOSE OF OTHERS IN THE FORM OF A CLASS ACTION OR SIMILAR PROCEDURAL DEVICE. ANY CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF, RELATING TO, OR CONNECTED WITH THESE TERMS MUST BE AS ASSERTED INDIVIDUALLY.
  2. If Z57 does take any legal action against you as a result of your violation of the Agreement, Z57 will be entitled to recover from you, and you agree to pay, all reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of such action, in addition to any other relief granted to Z57. You agree that Z57 will not be liable to you or to any third party for termination of your access to or use of any part of the Product as a result of your breach of the Agreement.

Modifications to this Agreement

  1. We may modify the Agreement at any time and in our sole discretion. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to publish to you any revised portion of the Agreement, for example, by publishing the latest version of these terms and conditions at http://www.z57.com/terms-conditions/; through email; and/or by posting a notice in your website’s back office/content management tool (e.g., the Property Pulse Admin Panel). Should you deem any such modification to the Agreement to be unacceptable, you shall stop accessing and using the Product.  All changes to the Agreement shall be effective immediately.  Your continued use of the Product will constitute your acceptance of any change to the Agreement.

Force Majeure

  1. In the event Z57’s performance of this Agreement, or any obligation hereunder, is prevented, restricted, or interfered with by reason of acts of God or of the public enemy, acts of the Government in its sovereign capacity, fires, floods, epidemic, strikes, picketing or boycotts, or any other circumstances caused by natural occurrences or third party actions beyond the reasonable control and without the fault or negligence of Z57, Z57 shall be excused from such performance on a day-to-day basis to the extent of such prevention, restriction or interference.

Miscellaneous

  1. You agree to accept notices delivered via e-mail from Z57 regarding the Product, service, billing, and marketing-related content. Z57 agrees not to release your e-mail address to third parties for solicitation purposes.
  2. If any part of the Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable pursuant to applicable law including, but not limited to, the warranty disclaimers and liability limitations set forth above, then the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed superseded by a valid, enforceable provision that most closely matches the intent of the original provision and the remainder of the Agreement shall continue in effect.
  3. This Agreement is the complete and exclusive statement regarding the subject matter of the Agreement and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, understandings, and communications, oral or written, between you and Z57 regarding such subject matter.
  4. The waiver of any provision on one occasion will not constitute a waiver of such provision on any other occasion, and any failure to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement will not constitute a waiver. No waiver of a right or remedy under this Agreement will be binding upon a party unless it is in writing and signed by its authorized representative.
  5. This Agreement does not create any agency or partnership relationship.
  6. You may not assign this Agreement, in whole or in part, to any other person or entity without the prior written consent of Z57. Any purported assignment lacking such consent will be void at its inception. Z57 may assign this Agreement without your consent, including in connection with a merger, a sale of equity, a sale of assets, or other similar organizational transaction.
  7. This Agreement is binding upon and inures to the benefit of the parties and their heirs, executors, legal and personal representatives, successors and permitted assigns, as the case may be.
