Terms of Service
Switchboard provides its Services subject to the terms and conditions in this Terms of Service ("Terms" or "Agreement"). When we refer to our "Services" in these Terms, we mean to include the whole lot -- our platform services, which includes all of our programs, features, functions and report formats, instructions, code samples, on-line help files and technical documentation, our website, Connect dashboard, technical support, Add-ons as well as any upgrades or updates to any of the foregoing, made generally available by us, and includes any of our Cloud or APIs provided to you in connection with your use of our Services, and our connectivity services.
Further, your use of our Services is subject to additional terms, as modified from time to time in accordance with applicable law, including, without limitation and as applicable, the Switchboard Service Level Agreement ("SLA"), the Switchboard Acceptable Use Policy ("AUP"), Trademark Usage Guidelines, Logo Usage Guidelines and privacy-related policies and agreements posted on our website ("Supplemental Terms"), all of which are incorporated herein by reference and form part of these Terms.
To be eligible to register for a Switchboard account and use Switchboard's Services, you must review and accept the terms of this Agreement by clicking on the "I Accept" button or other mechanism provided. PLEASE REVIEW THESE TERMS CAREFULLY. ONCE ACCEPTED, THESE TERMS BECOME A BINDING LEGAL COMMITMENT BETWEEN YOU AND SWITCHBOARD. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS, YOU SHOULD NOT CLICK THE "I ACCEPT" BUTTON AND YOU SHOULD NOT USE SWITCHBOARD'S SERVICES.
In this Agreement, "we," "us," "our" or "Switchboard" will refer to Switchboard Live Inc., 300 S Orange Ave - Suite 1000, Orlando, FL 32801. And, the terms "you," "your" and "Customer" will refer to you. If you are registering for a Switchboard account or using Switchboard's Services on behalf of an organization, you are agreeing to these terms for that organization and promising Switchboard that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms (and, in which case, the terms "you" and "your" or "customer" will refer to that organization). The exception to this is if that organization has a separate contract with Switchboard covering your account and use of our Services, in which case that contract will govern your account and use of Switchboard's Services.
IMPORTANT NOTE: SWITCHBOARD DOES NOT PROVIDE WARRANTIES FOR ITS SERVICES, AND THESE TERMS LIMIT OUR LIABILITY TO YOU. For more details, go to Sections 11 and 13.
ARBITRATION NOTICE: THESE TERMS REQUIRE THE USE OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE RELATED TO OUR SERVICES, WHICH LIMITS ACCESS TO A JUDGE, JURY AND THE ABILITY TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. ARBITRATION MAY ALSO LIMIT THE REMEDIES AVAILABLE TO YOU. YOU SHOULD REVIEW CAREFULLY THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 17 PRIOR TO ACCEPTING THESE TERMS.
If you have any questions about these Terms, you can reach the Switchboard team at switchboard.live/contact.

15. Terminations of These Terms
15.1 Terms Period. The period of these Terms will commence on the date these Terms are accepted by you and continue for twelve months (the "Initial Period"). These Terms will automatically renew for additional twelve (12) month periods (each, a "Renewal Period") unless either you or Switchboard provides notice of non-renewal at least thirty (30) days before the end of the Initial Period or a Renewal Period. The Initial Period and all Renewal Periods will be referred to in this agreement as the "Terms Period".
15.2 Termination and Suspension of Services. Either party may terminate your account for any reason upon 60-days written notice to the other party. Either party may also terminate or suspend your account in the event the other party commits any material breach of these Terms and fails to fix that breach within five (5) days after written notice of that breach. If we terminate these Terms due to your material breach, we may terminate or suspend your account(s) as well.
In addition to suspension of our services for non-payment of fees as described in Section 10.5 (Suspension), we may also suspend our Services immediately for cause if: (a) you violate (or give us reason to believe you have violated) the Switchboard AUP; (b) there is reason to believe the traffic created from your use of our Services or your use of our Services is fraudulent or negatively impacting the operating capability of our Services; (c) we determine, in our sole discretion, that providing our Services is prohibited by law, or it has become impractical or unfeasible for any legal or regulatory reason to provide our Services; or (d) subject to applicable law, upon your liquidation, commencement of dissolution proceedings, disposal of your assets or change of control, a failure to continue business, assignment for the benefit of creditors, or if you become the subject of bankruptcy or similar proceeding. If we suspend our Services to your account, we will make a reasonable attempt to notify you.
If your registration(s) with or ability to access our Services or any related other Switchboard community is discontinued by Switchboard due to your violation of any portion of these Terms, or for conduct otherwise inappropriate for the community, then you agree that you shall not attempt to re-register with or access our Services or any Switchboard community through use of a different member name or otherwise, and you acknowledge that you will not be entitled to receive a refund for fees related to our Services to which your access has been terminated. In the event that you violate the immediately preceding sentence, Switchboard reserves the right, in its sole discretion, immediately to take any or all of the actions set forth herein without any notice or warning to you.

In addition, terms and provisions in Supplemental Terms which by their nature would survive termination shall survive.
17. General
17.1 Compliance with Laws. Both you and Switchboard will comply with the applicable law relating to each of our respective activities under these Terms, including privacy and data protection laws and applicable rules established by the Federal Communications Commission. If you believe that WE haVE not adhered to theSE Terms, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU ARE ENCOURAGED TO contact US. We will do our best to address your concerns. If you feel that your complaint has been addressed incompletely, we invite you to let us know for further investigation.
The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the "DMCA") provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. Copyright Law. If you believe in good faith that materials available on any part of our Services, infringe your copyright, you (or your agent) should send us a written notice requesting that we remove such material or block access to it by clicking on the following link and completing the form located Here. If you believe in good faith that someone has wrongly submitted a notice to us under this paragraph, then you should send us a counter-notice. Notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA. See for details.. Specifically, notices and counter-notices should include the following: (i) an electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright interest; (ii) a description of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed; (iii) a description of the location on or through our Services of the material that you claim is infringing; (iv) your address, telephone number and e-mail address; (v) a written statement by you that you have a good-faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent or the law; and (vi) a statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the copyright owner's behalf. The foregoing requirements must be followed to give us legally sufficient notice of any infringement. Contact information for Switchboard's copyright agent for notice of claims of copyright infringement is as follows: legal@switchboard.live, Attn: General Counsel.
Further, all pictures, graphics, videos and other visual media displayed through our Services are exempt from 18 U.S.C. § 2257 and 28 C.F.R. 75 because they do not consist of depictions of conduct as specifically listed in 18 U.S.C. § 2256(2)(A) through (D), but are merely, at most, depictions of non-sexually explicit nudity, or are depictions of simulated sexual conduct, or are otherwise exempt because the visual depictions were created prior to July 3, 1995. Switchboard is not the primary producer of the visual content contained or made available through our Services.
17.2 No Waiver. Switchboard's failure to enforce at any time any provision of these Terms (including Supplemental Terms) does not waive our right to do so later. And, if we do expressly waive any provision of these Terms (or Supplemental Terms), that does not mean it is waived for all time in the future. Any waiver must be in writing and signed by and us to be legally binding.
17.3 Assignment. You will not assign or otherwise transfer these Terms, in whole or in part, without our prior written consent. Any attempt by you to assign, delegate, or transfer these Terms will be null and void. Subject to this Section 17.3, these Terms will be binding on both you and Switchboard and each of our respective affiliates, successors, and assigns.
17.4 Relationship. You and Switchboard are independent contractors in the performance of each and every part of these Terms. Nothing in these Terms is intended to create or shall be construed as creating an employer-employee relationship or a partnership, agency, joint venture, or franchise. You and Switchboard will be solely responsible for all of our respective employees and agents and our respective labor costs and expenses arising in connection with our respective employees and agents. You and Switchboard will also be solely responsible for any and all claims, liabilities or damages or debts of any type that may arise on account of each of our respective activities, or those of each of our respective employees or agents, in the performance of these Terms. Neither you nor Switchboard has the authority to commit the other of us in any way and will not attempt to do so or imply that it has the right to do so.
17.5 Unenforceability. Except as described in Section 18 (Agreement to Arbitrate), if any provision of these Terms is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable and, in any event, the rest of these Terms will continue in full force and effect.
17.6 Notices. The communications between you and Switchboard use electronic means, whether you visit our website or send e-mails through our Services, or whether Switchboard posts notices through its on-line properties, or communicates with you via e-mail. For contractual purposes, you (i) consent to receive communications from Switchboard in an electronic form, and (ii) agree that all terms and conditions, agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications that we provide to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications would satisfy if it were to be in writing. The foregoing does not affect your statutory rights, however, to any other form of notice, if any. Where we require that you provide an e-mail address, you are responsible for providing Switchboard with your most current e-mail address. In the event that the last e-mail address you provided to us is not valid, or for any reason is not capable of delivering to you any notices required/permitted by these Terms, Switchboard's dispatch of the e-mail containing such notice will nonetheless constitute effective notice. Notices to Switchboard shall be copied to legal@switchboard.live, Attn: General Counsel.
17.7 Entire Agreement. These Terms (including Supplemental Terms) supersede all prior and contemporaneous proposals, statements, sales materials or presentations and agreements, oral and written, and constitute the entire agreement and understanding of the parties. No oral or written information or advice given by Switchboard, its agents, representatives or employees will create a warranty or in any way increase the scope of the warranties in these Terms.
17.8 Force Majeure. No failure, delay or default in performance of any obligation of a party shall constitute an event of default or breach of these Terms to the extent that such failure to perform, delay or default arises out of a cause, existing or future, that is beyond the control and without gross negligence of such party, including, without limitation: action or inaction of governmental, civil or military authority; fire; strike, lockout or other labor dispute; flood, terrorist act; war; riot; theft; earthquake and other natural disaster. The party affected by such cause shall take all reasonable actions to minimize the consequences of any such cause.
17.9 Government Terms. ** We provide our Services, including related software and technology, for ultimate federal government end use solely in accordance with the terms of these Terms. If you (or any of your End Users) are an agency, department, or other entity of any government, the use, duplication, reproduction, release, modification, disclosure, or transfer of our Services, or any related documentation of any kind, including technical data, software, and manuals, is restricted by these Terms. All other use is prohibited, and no rights other than those provided in these Terms are conferred. Our Services were developed fully at private expense.
17.10 Governing Law and Venue. The enforceability and interpretation of Section 18 (Agreement to Arbitrate) will be determined the Federal Arbitration Act (including its procedural provisions). Apart from Section 18, these Terms (including Supplemental Terms) will be governed by and interpreted according to the laws of the State of Florida without regard to conflicts of laws and principles that would cause laws of another jurisdiction to apply. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, the Uniform Commercial Code, and the Uniform Computer Information Act shall not apply to these Terms or Supplemental Terms. Except as provided in Section 18 (Arbitration), any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or related to these Terms or our Services shall be instituted in either the state or federal courts of Orlando, Florida, and we each consent to the personal jurisdiction of these courts.
YOU AND US AGREE THAT ANY CAUSE ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE TERMS, OR OUR SERVICES MUST COMMENCE WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES AS DEFINED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW; OTHERWISE SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE PERMANENTLY BARRED, UNLESS OTHERWISE PROHIBITED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.
You hereby irrevocably and forever release us from claims, demands, any and all losses, damages, rights, and actions of any kind, including personal injuries, death, and property damage, that is either directly or indirectly related to or arises from your use of our Services including, but not limited to, any interactions with or conduct of other users or third-party websites of any kind arising in connection with or as a result of these Terms or your use of our Services. If you are a California resident, you hereby waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which states, "A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which, if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor."
18. Agreement to Arbitrate
Before bringing a formal legal case, please first try contacting our Customer Support. Most disputes can be resolved that way.
18.1 We Both Agree to Arbitrate. If we can't resolve our dispute through our customer support, you or any of your affiliates on one hand and Switchboard and any of Switchboard's affiliates, on the other hand, all agree to resolve any dispute arising under these Terms (including Supplemental Terms), or in relation to our Services, by confidential, binding arbitration in Orlando, Florida, or in another location that we have both agreed to.
This applies to all claims under any legal theory unless the claim fits in one the exceptions below in Subsection 18.2 (Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate). It also applies even after you have stopped using your Switchboard account or have deleted it. If we have a dispute about whether this agreement to arbitrate can be enforced or applies to our dispute, we all agree that the arbitrator will decide that, too.
18.2 Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate. Notwithstanding the agreement to arbitrate herein, claims related to a violation of Switchboard's AUP, claims of defamation, violation of the U.S. Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA), 18 U.S.C. §1030 et seq., as amended, and infringement or misappropriation of the other party's patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade dress, Licensor Marks or trade secrets shall not be subject to the agreement to arbitrate; such claims shall be exclusively brought in and resolved by the state or federal courts located in and for Orlando, Florida. Additionally, notwithstanding this agreement to arbitrate, either party may seek emergency equitable relief before the state or federal courts located in Orlando, Florida, in order to maintain the status quo pending arbitration, and hereby agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the courts located in such country for such purpose. A request for interim measures shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to arbitrate.
Also, any of us can bring a claim in small claims court either in Orlando, Florida, or the county where you live, or some other place we both agree on if it qualifies to be brought in that court.
In addition, if any of us brings a claim in court that should be arbitrated or any of us refuses to arbitrate a claim that should be arbitrated, the other of us can ask a court to force us to go to arbitration to resolve the claim (i.e., compel arbitration). Any of us may also ask a court to halt a court proceeding while an arbitration proceeding is ongoing.
18.3 Details of Arbitration Procedure. Before filing any arbitration, both parties jointly agree to seek to resolve any dispute between us by mediation conducted by the American Arbitration Association (AAA), with all mediator fees and expenses paid equally by the parties, unless otherwise required under applicable law. If mediation is not successful, either party may initiate an arbitration proceeding with AAA. You can look at AAA's rules and procedures on their website, or you can call them at 1-800-778-7879.
The arbitration will be governed by the then-current version of AAA's Commercial Arbitration Rules (the "Rules") and will be held with a single arbitrator appointed in accordance with the Rules. To the extent anything described in this Section 18 conflicts with the Rules, the language of this Section 18 applies.
Each of us will be entitled to get a copy of non-privileged relevant documents in the possession or control of the other party and to take a reasonable number of depositions. All such discovery will be in accordance with procedures approved by the arbitrator. This Section 18 does not alter in any way the statute of limitations that would apply to any claims or counterclaims asserted by either party.
The arbitrator's award will be based on the evidence admitted and the substantive law of the State of Florida and the United States, as applicable, and will contain an award for each issue and counterclaim. The award will provide in writing the factual findings and legal reasoning for such award. The arbitrator will not be entitled to modify these Terms.
Except as provided in the Federal Arbitration Act, the arbitration award will be final and binding on the parties. Judgment may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
18.4 Class Action Waiver. Both you and your affiliates, on one hand, and Switchboard and its affiliates, on the other hand, agree that any claims or controversies between us must be brought against each other on an individual basis only. That means neither you and your affiliates on one hand nor Switchboard and its affiliates, on the other hand, can bring a claim as a plaintiff or class member in a class action, consolidated action, or representative action. The arbitrator cannot combine more than one person's or entity's claims into a single case, and cannot preside over any consolidated, class or representative proceeding (unless we agree otherwise). And, the arbitrator's decision or award in one person's or entity's case can only impact the person or entity that brought the claim, not other Switchboard customers, and cannot be used to decide other disputes with other customers.
If a court decides that this Subsection 18.4 (Class Action Waiver) is not enforceable or valid, then the entire Section 18 (Agreement to Arbitrate) will be null and void (i.e., go away). But, the rest of the Terms will still apply.
19. Governing Language and Global Access
The parties expressly desired that the Terms and all related documents were drafted in English, in the American variation thereof. C'est law volone expresse des parties que la presente convention ainsi que les documents qui s'y rattacent soient rediges en anglais.
