Service Agreement
This
Customer Service Agreement (this "Agreement") is by and between
ClickTime.com, Inc., a California corporation ("ClickTime.com")
and the company (or other entity) acknowledging this Agreement ("Customer").
1.
Provision of Service
(a) ClickTime.com will provide Customer access to the ReviewManager.com
Internet document viewing service (the "Service") which enables
on-line sharing of a variety of documents (the "Customer Data")
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. ClickTime.com may change
Service features and functionality, as well as the terms and conditions
of this Agreement, from time to time. Notice of such changes will
be posted on the ReviewManager.com Web site (the "Web Site"), which
Customer will review periodically.
(b) Customer is responsible for its own compliance with this Agreement,
including without limitation the compliance of its employees, officers,
agents, and any third party Customer invites to participate in the
Service.
2.
Fees.
(a) Customer's use of the Service may result in fees as will be
set forth in the fee schedule on the Web Site. In the event that
such fee schedule includes time-commitments or cancellation fees
for cancellation before the expiration of such time commitments,
Customer will be responsible for compliance with such terms and
payment of such cancellation fees. The Service fees and charges
may be changed by ClickTime.com from time to time by revising the
fee schedule posted on the Web Site. Customer agrees to pay said
fees within thirty (30) days of receipt of ClickTime.com's invoice.
Customer will pay on all amounts past due, that have not been disputed
specifically in writing and in reasonable good faith, an interest
charge of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month computed from
the due date of each payment, or the maximum rate permitted by California
law. Customer will be liable for attorneys' and collection fees
arising out of or related to ClickTime.com's efforts to collect
unpaid balances.
(b) All payments will be in U.S. dollars.
(c) Customers may select credit card payment options, pursuant to
which ClickTime.com will charge fees directly to Customer's credit
card, when such option is made available by ClickTime.com and pursuant
to such terms and conditions as ClickTime.com may post on the Web
Site from time to time.
(d) Customer agrees to pay all state and local sales, use, property,
or other taxes (collectively, "Chargeable Taxes"), except for taxes
on ClickTime.com's net income which may be assessed against ClickTime.com
with respect to this Agreement. ClickTime.com may include Chargeable
Taxes in its invoices, in which event Customer will pay to ClickTime.com
the taxes so invoiced.
3.
Limitations on Use of Service and Service Software.
(a) As used herein, "Software" refers to any software incorporated
into the Service. Customer will not, and will not permit, assist,
or allow others to, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, re-engineer,
or otherwise discover, recreate, or attempt to discover or recreate
the Software or its source code. Customer will not modify or attempt
to modify the Software or sublicense or charge others to use or
access the Software or the Service. Customer will not use the Software
or the Service in any way not expressly authorized by this Agreement.
(b) Customer acknowledges that the Service is not intended for permanent
storage and agrees not to use the Service for archiving or back-up
purposes. Customer will not store "mission critical" data on the
Service, including without limitation data pertaining to power generation,
military or national security, or any function to sustain or rescue
the health or well-being of any person.

that may be considered obscene or pornographic, that contains defamatory
material, or that violates federal, state, or local law.

Service that are described as "beta" ("Beta Features"). Customer
acknowledges that Beta Features may be untested, non-functional,
and/or partly functional features of the Service. Without limiting
the generality of the provisions of Section 5(a) below, if Customer
elects to use a Beta Feature, it does so at its own risk. Customer
will back-up all data it adds to the Beta Features and will not
rely upon the functionality of the Beta Features for any purpose
whatsoever. Except as specifically provided in this Section 3(d),
the Beta Features will be considered part of the Service and all
provisions of this Agreement relating to the Service will apply
to the Beta Features.
4.

(a) ClickTime.com will exercise reasonable care to prevent any unauthorized
person or entity from gaining access to Customer Data. Each party
will promptly notify the other of any unauthorized access to or
use of Customer Data or passwords. The parties will use reasonable
efforts to take remedial measures to address any such unauthorized
access. ClickTime.com will not be liable for any damages incurred
by Customer arising out of or related to use of the Service, including
without limitation in connection with any unauthorized access to
or disclosure of Customer Data, resulting from the actions of Customer,
any third party, or from the failure of electronic or other security
measures.
(b) ClickTime.com has no obligation to monitor the Service. ClickTime
has the right to monitor the Service and to disclose any information
arising out of it, including without limitation Customer Data, as
necessary to satisfy any law, regulation, or demand of government

ClickTime.com may remove or refuse to post any materials that it
finds, at its sole discretion, to be offensive, undesirable, in
violation of this Agreement, or otherwise unacceptable. However,

party not authorized to use the Service.

by the internal laws of the State of California (as permitted by
Section 1646.5 of the California Civil Code or any similar successor

than the internal laws of the State of California to the rights
and duties of the parties. The parties agree that any claim, controversy,
or dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement will be
settled by final and binding arbitration to be conducted in San

right or remedy.
(f) No person or entity who is not a party to this Agreement will
derive any rights whatsoever hereunder as a third party beneficiary
of this Agreement.
