Terms of service

Date of Last Revision: June 24th, 2013

Welcome to OurMark! We have created a service that helps you search, track, build a profile and score based-on, and share, good deeds you perform with or through charitable organizations and other non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and companies in general ("OurMark Partners").

This Terms of Service (as it may be amended from time to time, the "Agreement") is a legal agreement between you (and, if applicable, the organization or entity that you represent) ("you" or "your") and OurMark, Inc. ("OurMark", "we", "our" or "us"). OurMark provides the services described above to you through our website located at www.ourmark.com (the "Site"), its applications and its related services (the Site and such applications and services, including any modifications thereto, collectively, the "Service(s)"), subject to the following Agreement. We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to change or modify portions of this Agreement at any time without further notice.

You should periodically visit this page to review the current Agreement so you are aware of any revision to which you are bound. If we do this, we will post the changes to this Agreement on this page and will indicate at the top of this page the date these terms were last revised. Your continued use of the Service after any such changes constitutes your acceptance of the new Agreement (unless we provide an alternative acceptance date in a notification to you in writing, such as an email). If you do not agree to abide by these or any future Agreement, do not use or access (or continue to use or access) the Service. It is your responsibility to regularly check the Service to determine if there have been changes to this Agreement and to review such changes.

In addition, when using certain services, you may be subject to any additional terms applicable to such services that may be posted on the Service from time to time, including, without limitation, the Privacy Policy located at www.ourmark.com/privacy-policy. All such terms are hereby incorporated by reference into this Agreement.

Part I: Access and Use of the Service

Marks: "marks" are the unit of measure created by us to determine a score for our users; a score which results from multiple qualifying activities that you might be engaged in with or through OurMark partners. Marks will be assigned to you every time a good deed is registered (either by you or one of OurMark partners) in your account. Note that, through the Service, when you add a good deed to your profile with respect to a third party (including an OurMark Partner), we will attempt to send that third party a message notifying it of that good deed, and we will attempt to give the third party an opportunity to endorse it, respond to you with respect to that good deed, edit it to match their records (and then endorse it) or reject it.

Certificates: When you engage in a qualifying activity with an OurMark Partner, you may sometimes receive an electronic certificate that allows you to keep a record of such activities. The Service will permit you to store these certificates for your own records and/or share these certificates with your friends or family, and through social networks, among other things. Each certificate will have a value expressed in "marks".

Impact topics: We have designated as "Impact Topics" those actions by which you can make a positive contribution to other people and/or the environment. Impact Topics are a conceptualization of good deeds exclusive to OurMark, which can change over time (i.e., we may add new Impact Topics and / or discard others).

Mobile Services: The Service includes certain services that are available via a mobile device, including (i) the ability to upload content to the Service via a mobile device, (ii) the ability to browse the Service from a mobile device and (iii) the ability to access certain features through an application downloaded and installed on a mobile device (collectively, the "Mobile Services"). To the extent you access the Service through a mobile device, your wireless service carrier's standard charges, data rates and other fees may apply. In addition, downloading, installing, or using certain Mobile Services may be prohibited or restricted by your carrier, and not all Mobile Services may work with all carriers or devices. By using the Mobile Services, you agree that we may communicate with you regarding the Service by text message or other electronic means to your mobile device and that certain information about your usage of the Mobile Services may be communicated to us.

Your Registration Obligations: You must be registered with OurMark in order to access and use the Service. If you choose to register for the Service, you agree to provide and maintain true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself as prompted by the Service's registration form, including your mailing address. Registration data and certain other information about you are governed by our Privacy Policy. If you are under 13 years of age, you are not authorized to use the Service, with or without registering. In addition, if you are under 18 years old, you may use the Service, with or without registering, only with the approval of your parent or guardian.

Member Account, Password and Security: You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and account, if any, and are fully responsible for any and all activities that occur under your password or account. You agree to (a) immediately notify OurMark of any unauthorized use of your password or account or any other breach of security, and (b) ensure that you exit from your account at the end of each session when accessing the Service. OurMark will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this Section.

Other company, product, and service names and logos used and displayed via the Service may be trademarks or service marks of their respective owners who may or may not be OurMark or be affiliated with or connected to OurMark.

You acknowledge that OurMark does not pre-screen content, but that OurMark and its designees will have the right (but not the obligation) in their sole discretion to refuse or remove any content that is available via the Service. Without limiting the foregoing, OurMark and its designees will have the right to remove any content that violates this Agreement or is deemed by OurMark, in its sole discretion, to be otherwise objectionable. You agree that you must evaluate, and bear all risks associated with, the use of any content, including any reliance on the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of such content.

Copyright Complaints: OurMark respects the intellectual property of others, and we ask our users to do the same. If you believe that your work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, or that your intellectual property rights have been otherwise violated, you should notify OurMark of your infringement claim in accordance with the procedure set forth below.

OurMark will process and investigate notices of alleged infringement and will take appropriate actions under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA") and other applicable intellectual property laws with respect to any alleged or actual infringement. A notification of claimed copyright infringement should be emailed to OurMark's Copyright Agent at contact@ourmark.com (Subject line: "DMCA Takedown Request").

To be effective, the notification must be in writing and contain the following information:

• An electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright or other intellectual property interest;
• A description of the copyrighted work or other intellectual property that you claim has been infringed;
• A description of where the material that you claim is infringing is located on the Site or Service, with enough detail that we may find it on the Site or Service;
• Your address, telephone number, and email address;
• A statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright or intellectual property owner, its agent, or the law;
• A statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright or intellectual property owner or authorized to act on the copyright or intellectual property owner's behalf.

Counter-Notice: If you believe that your User Content that was removed (or to which access was disabled) is not infringing, or that you have the authorization from the copyright owner, the copyright owner's agent, or pursuant to the law, to post and use the content in your User Content, you may send a written counter-notice containing the following information to the Copyright Agent:

• Your physical or electronic signature;
• Identification of the content that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the content appeared before it was removed or disabled;
• A statement that you have a good faith belief that the content was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or a misidentification of the content; and
• your name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address, a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court located within Northern District of California and a statement that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of the alleged infringement.

If a counter-notice is received by the Copyright Agent, OurMark will send a copy of the counter-notice to the original complaining party informing that person that it may replace the removed content or cease disabling it in 10 business days. Unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order against the content provider, member or user, the removed content may be replaced, or access to it restored, in 10 to 14 business days or more after receipt of the counter-notice, at our sole discretion.

Repeat Infringer Policy: In accordance with the DMCA and other applicable law, OurMark has adopted a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances and at OurMark's sole discretion, users who are deemed to be repeat infringers. OurMark may also at its sole discretion limit access to the Service and/or terminate the memberships of any users who infringe any intellectual property rights of others, whether or not there is any repeat infringement.

By enabling third party services within the OurMark Service, you are allowing us to exchange information with these service providers for this purpose.

If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: "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." If you are a resident of another jurisdiction, you waive any comparable statute or doctrine.

Disclaimer of Warranties Your use of the service is at your sole risk. the service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. ourmark expressly disclaims all warranties of any kind, whether express, implied or statutory, including, but not limited to the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title and non-infringement.
