Sitter Pro Subscription Terms of Service

1. Agreement. This Agreement is a binding legal agreement between you and UrbanSitter.  If you enter into this Agreement on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the legal authority to bind that entity to this Agreement, and all references to “you” and “your” in this Agreement are referring to that entity. You and UrbanSitter are also sometimes referred to in this Agreement individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties”.

This Agreement covers your access to our services like the Sitter Pro web dashboard, but it doesn’t cover access to the Sitter Pro App by End Users.

2. Application.  This Agreement applies to any use of the Services, including, without limitation, in connection with a paid subscription or a free trial. For clarity, this Agreement does not apply to the use of the Sitter Pro App by End Users. The Sitter Pro App has a separate agreement for users of the Sitter Pro App (the “Consumer Agreement”), which is accessible through the Sitter Pro App.

We continuously strive to improve our products and services, and as our business evolves, this agreement may change. This section describes how we can change the agreement.

3. Changes to this Agreement.We may, in our sole discretion, make changes to this Agreement from time to time. Any changes we make will become effective when we post a modified version of this Agreement to our Website, and we agree the changes will not be retroactive. If we make any material changes to this Agreement, we’ll also notify you within the Software Service or by sending you an email. If you continue using the Services after any changes to this Agreement, it means you have accepted such changes. If you do not agree to any changes, you must stop using the Services, and you can terminate your account by emailing support@sitter.me. You will not be entitled to any refund if you terminate your account; provided, however, if you have subscribed for an annual plan, your account will only be charged through the month during which termination occurred provided that you terminate your account within thirty (30) days after we provide notice of the change.  It is your obligation to ensure that you read, understand and agree to the latest version of this Agreement that’s posted on our Website. The legend at the top of this Agreement indicates when it was last changed.

Our software will meet the uptime requirements described in our SLA.

1. Access and Service Levels. We will make the Software Services to which you have subscribed available to you via the Internet, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. During the Subscription Term (defined in Section 8.1), the Software Services will meet the service levels specified in the Service Level Agreement (“SLA”).

We may temporarily suspend your access for things like scheduled maintenance, or if a natural disaster occurs. We may also change or discontinue particular features or functions of our Services at any time.

2. Changes to Services. Notwithstanding Section 2.1, in addition to our rights set forth in Section 8.4, we reserve the right to suspend any Services (a) during planned downtime as provided in the SLA, (b) in connection with a Force Majeure event (as described in Section 12.7), or (c) if we believe any malicious software is being used in connection with your account.  We reserve the right to change, modify, and otherwise convert the software, hardware and/or technology used to provide the Services at any time without notice, provided, however, that the basic functionality and quality of the Services will not be materially affected.  Notwithstanding the above, we have no obligation to update or enhance any Services or to produce or release new versions of any Services.

Your base subscription fees include our standard support services.

3. Support Services. During the Subscription Term of each Software Service to which you have subscribed, UrbanSitter will provide support for such Software Service in accordance with the Sitter Pro Support Policy (“Support Policy“).

This describes how we leverage our optional marketing services to drive business to you. Participation in marketing services is voluntary. If you choose to participate, you agree to pay any related fees.

4. Marketing Services. When you subscribe to the Software Service, your business will be provided the opportunity to be listed on the Sitter Pro online marketing platform (“Marketing Services”), which allows consumers to locate Sitter Pro subscribers and evaluate, review and book their services, directly through the Sitter Pro App and, if applicable, through our partner applications. From time to time, we may offer Sitter Pro subscribers the opportunity to participate in promotional programs (“Sitter Pro Promote”), which are designed to promote their businesses and attract customers through the Marketing Services. To enroll in Sitter Pro Promote, you must review and agree to the applicable Sitter Pro Promote terms and conditions accessible at https://sitter.app/sitter-pro-promote-terms-of-service/ (or such other URL as we may specify) (“Sitter Pro Promote Terms”). We reserve the right to charge fees for Sitter Pro Promote in accordance with the Sitter Pro Promote Terms. If you enroll in Sitter Pro Promote, you agree to pay all applicable fees for Sitter Pro Promote in accordance with Section 4.2 of this Agreement. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and the Sitter Pro Promote Terms, the Sitter Pro Promote Terms will apply.

We are not responsible for any damages resulting from your use of any trial or beta services.

5. Free, Trial and Beta Services. We may, in our sole discretion, offer free, trial or beta Services from time to time at no charge.

Stripe Payment Processing is subject to the Stripe Connected Account Agreement, which includes the Stripe Terms of Service (collectively, the “Stripe Services Agreement”), and is subject to certain fees and charges (“Administrative Processing Fees”), in such amounts as communicated to you during the enrollment process and with respect to which you are responsible to pay.  Such fees and charges are subject to change by us from time to time. By using Stripe Payment Processing, you agree to be bound by the Stripe Services Agreement, as the same may be modified by Stripe from time to time. As a condition of our enabling payment processing services through Stripe, you agree to provide us accurate and complete information about you and your business, and you authorize us to share such information and transaction information related to your use of the payment processing services provided by Stripe pursuant to our Privacy Policy. To the extent permitted by law, we may collect any obligations you owe us under this Agreement by deducting the corresponding amounts from funds payable to you arising from the settlement of card transactions through Stripe Payment Processing. Fees and charges will be assessed at the time a transaction is processed and will be first deducted from the funds received for such transactions. If the settlement amounts are not sufficient to meet your obligations to us, we may charge or debit the bank account or credit card registered in your account for any amounts owed to us. Your failure to fully pay amounts that you owe us on demand will be a breach of this Agreement. You will be liable for our costs associated with collection in addition to the amount owed, including without limitation attorneys’ fees and expenses, costs of any arbitration or court proceeding, collection agency fees, and any applicable interest. Additionally, we may require a personal guaranty from a principal of a business for funds owed under this Agreement. If we require a personal guaranty we will specifically inform you. In addition to the amount due, delinquent accounts may be charged with fees that are incidental to the collection of delinquent accounts and chargebacks including, but not limited to, collection fees and convenience fees and other third parties charges. You hereby explicitly agree that all communication in relation to delinquent accounts will be made by electronic mail or by phone, as provided to us by you.
