Terms of Service

Normally this part is pretty boring. Let's see what we can do about that.

Last Revised June 3rd, 2020.

tl;dr Nine9s is here to be useful to you, please don't try to break it. If you spot something bad, please let me know.

We want you to know your rights and our rights and so we have prepared this agreement ("user agreement" or "agreement") between Nine9s, LLC. (“Nine9s”, "we", "our," "us") and you. This agreement sets the terms of your use of the Nine9s website and services. This agreement is meant to encourage a fair and tolerant place for ideas, people, links, and discussion.

First, the Legal Stuff

This agreement is a legal contract between you and us. You acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement. If you do not agree to this agreement, you should not use Nine9s. Please take a look at Nine9s’s privacy policy too—it explains how we collect and use your information.

Your Access to Nine9s

Without advance notice and at any time, we may, for violations of this agreement or for any other reason we choose: (1) suspend your access to Nine9s, (2) suspend or terminate Your Account, and/or (3) remove any of your User Content from Nine9s. We reserve the right to monitor Nine9s, and your use of the Service means you agree to such monitoring. At the same time, we do not guarantee we will monitor at all.

Nine9s is for Your Lawful Use

You may not use Nine9s to break the law, violate an individual's privacy, or infringe any person or entity’s intellectual property or any other proprietary rights.

Your Nine9s Account

To participate on Nine9s, you must create an account that includes a username and password ("Your Account") and, if you want to be able to reset your password or have us contact you, an email address as well. Of course, you can also use Nine9s without logging in, but you will not have access to all features.

You are solely responsible for the information associated with Your Account and anything that happens related to Your Account.

You may not license, transfer, sell, or assign Your Account without our written approval.

Nine9s content

Nine9s contains graphics, text, photographs, images, video, audio, software, code, website compilation, website "look and feel," and advertisements supplied by us or our licensors, which we call "Nine9s content." Nine9s content is protected by intellectual property laws including copyright and other proprietary rights of the United States and foreign countries.

We grant you the right to access the Nine9s content in the manner described in this agreement. You may not otherwise make unauthorized commercial use of, reproduce, prepare derivative works, distribute copies, perform, or publicly display Nine9s content, except as permitted by the doctrine of fair use or as authorized in writing by us.

Don’t Mess with Nine9s

You agree not to interrupt the serving of Nine9s, introduce malicious code onto Nine9s, make it difficult for anyone else to use Nine9s due to your actions, attempt to manipulate votes or Nine9s’s systems, or assist anyone in misusing Nine9s in any way. It takes a lot of work to maintain Nine9s. Be cool.

We support the responsible reporting of security vulnerabilities. To report a Nine9s security issue, please send an email to support@skyrocket.software.

Disclaimer of Warranties

Nine9s is provided "as is" and without warranty of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we and our affiliates and third party service providers disclaim any and all warranties, express or implied, including (but not limited to) implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement of proprietary rights, or any other warranty, condition, guarantee or representation, whether oral or electronic. You are solely responsible for any damage to your computer or mobile device, loss of use, or loss of your user content. We do not guarantee that Nine9s will always work properly.

Limitation of Liability

We will not be liable for any special, consequential, indirect, incidental, punitive, reliance, or exemplary damages, whether in tort, contract, or any other legal theory, arising out of or in any way connected with this agreement or your use of or attempt to use Nine9s, including (but not limited to) damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, or data. This limitation on liability shall not be affected even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Some states do not allow for the exclusion of implied warranties or the limitation or exclusion of liability for incidental or consequential damages, so the above exclusions may not apply to you. You may have other rights that vary from state to state.

You agree to release us, our affiliates, and third-party service providers, and each associated director, employee, agents, and officers, from claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential), of every kind and nature, known and unknown, disclosed or undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected to your use of Nine9s.

Governing Law

We agree and you agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal court located in San Diego County, California.

Severability and Enforcement

If any provision of this user agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be modified to the extent necessary to render it enforceable without losing its intent.

If no such modification is possible, that provision will be severed from the rest of this agreement. If we do not enforce any right or provision in this user agreement, that is not to be deemed a waiver of our right to do so in the future.
