If BouncePilot accepts the order, it shall confirm to the Client in writing and will then provide the Service in accordance with the Agreement.

  1. Description of the Service

3.1 Setting up the Service

3.1.1 The Client will comply with such technical requirements and specifications of the Service as BouncePilot may specify in writing (together with any other requirements and specifications BouncePilot may specify in writing from time to time, for example in respect of providing and improving other BouncePilot products and services which the Client may be interested in receiving), which may include the following: (i) including and maintaining Tags supplied by BouncePilot on the Client Properties and within emails sent by the Client to its database of email subscribers which permits BouncePilot to place Cookies on the User browser or device; (ii) supplying BouncePilot with (or with sufficient access to) detailed and up-to-date information in respect of the Client’s products and/or services to be included in Email Content (i.e. the ‘catalogue files’); (iii) supplying BouncePilot with the Client’s logos and other Client Content to be displayed in Email Content; (iv) supplying BouncePilot with lists of email recipients to be excluded from the Service; and (v) ensuring DNS configurations are setup such that BouncePilot and its Affiliates may send email on behalf of the Client.

 

3.1.2 The Client shall have the option of supplying additional User Data to BouncePilot for use in sending Email Content, which BouncePilot may use in its sole discretion, subject to clause 7.1.1(iii) (Warranties).

 

3.1.3 The Client authorizes BouncePilot to collect and to receive information related to their reputation in the emailing ecosystem (e.g. complaint data, databases managed, hosted and/or used by the Client, etc.) from third parties and other anti-abuse organizations. BouncePilot reserves the right to terminate this agreement based upon the information obtained from such anti-abuse entities.

 

3.2 Publisher Services

3.2.1 BouncePilot may use Publisher Services where the Publisher will provide BouncePilot with the Identifiers of the Users to whom BouncePilot or its Affiliates will send the Email Content on behalf of and/or in the name of the Client. BouncePilot shall create a database of such Identifiers (and may store the same in a Cookie) and query the corresponding Publisher database of Users who have consented (in accordance with the Data Protection Laws) to receive Email Content. On receipt of confirmation from the Publisher that such Users have so consented, BouncePilot shall create Email Content using the Client Data and Client Content and then use its reasonable endeavors to send Email Content to those Users. If BouncePilot receives a Clear Data Set in regards to this service, once BouncePilot has sent Email Content to a User, BouncePilot shall delete the corresponding Clear Data Set in respect of that User.

 

3.3 Operation of the Service

3.3.1 The Client acknowledges and accepts that BouncePilot has absolute discretion as to how often Email Content are sent and how priority is governed between BouncePilot clients and Identifiers. BouncePilot reserves the right to modify the BouncePilot Technology and/or cease sending Email Content on behalf of the Client without notice or compensation.

 

3.3.2 The Client shall be solely responsible for complying with the requirements of this clause 3 and shall do so in a timely manner. BouncePilot does not warrant that the Service will be performed by any dates stated in the Order (if any). When setting up a campaign the Client shall specify on the Order the intended Territory, which shall determine the BouncePilot Affiliate that delivers the Service. When we amend the Terms of Use or Privacy Policy, we will update the “Last Updated” date and post the updated version online. We may also, at our option, choose to notify Clients by e-mail or another means. If the modified terms are not acceptable to you, your only recourse is to stop using the Service. In the event of any material change to these policies, BouncePilot shall attempt to communicate these changes in advance. If the Client fails to comply with any such policy or guideline, BouncePilot may suspend or terminate the Service.

 

4 – Measurements and Performance Report

BouncePilot measures, through the BouncePilot Email Technology and/or Affiliates, the amount of Email Content successfully sent, the interaction Users make with it, and/or other metrics necessary for calculating the charges under the Agreement, including but not limited to User interactions and transactions which occur on Client Properties after receiving Email Content. The Client accepts that BouncePilot’s measurements are final and shall prevail over any other measurements. For monthly Clients, BouncePilot shall provide weekly reporting via email. Statistics are updated with a maximum delay of 7 days. Any modifications made to an Order and approved (either by the Client or upon the Client’s instruction) – including, but not limited to, budget adjustments or pausing a campaign, are solely the Client’s responsibility and the Client shall be liable for any costs incurred as a result of modifications. The Client gives permission for BouncePilot to make such modifications on its behalf in accordance with any specific instructions communicated in writing.

 

5 – Invoicing and Payment

The Client will receive monthly invoices from BouncePilot. The Client minimum investment (if applicable) for setting up the Service is defined in the Order. BouncePilot retains the right, in its sole discretion, to request prepayment from a Client, as specified in the Order. Standard practice is to request a prepayment of 10% of the expected monthly budget. The Service will be charged on the basis set out in the Order. BouncePilot shall be entitled to raise invoices in arrears at any time after the end of the month in which the Service has been delivered. BouncePilot does not guarantee that its charges for the Service will reach any maximum amount payable for the Service or ‘budget’ as specified in an Order. Unless specified otherwise in the Order, the Client shall pay all amounts due, without set-off, within 15 days from the invoice date. All payments to BouncePilot shall be made in the currency of the invoice, and are quoted exclusive of any applicable tax which shall be payable at the time and in the manner required by law. Payment may be made via ACH, check, credit card or wire transfer. If paid by credit card, Client is responsible for all associated credit card fees at the rate of 3%. BouncePilot shall be entitled to charge interest and recover costs on overdue amounts as specified or allowed by the relevant law or as set out in the Order. If BouncePilot commences legal proceedings to collect any payment and prevails, Customer shall pay BouncePilot’s reasonable attorney fees, court costs and other collection expenses. Any claim on the invoice can only be raised within one month of receipt. Unless stated otherwise in the Order, all invoices shall be payable solely by the Client. In the event that a number of different BouncePilot Affiliates deliver Email Content campaigns, BouncePilot shall have the right to issue multiple invoices in different currencies as appropriate.
