4. How Our Services Work
Appdome’s “Service” consists of its no-code mobile integration and solution platform located at fusion.appdome.com(the “Platform”), its website located at www.appdome.com (including any and all associated sites and pages, the “Sites”), Fusion Adapters, Fusion, Fused Mobile Apps, Dev Tools and Premium Support Apps (each as defined below).
When you use our Service, the licenses we provide you may include one or more of four (4) parts:
- The Appdome Platform. The Platform provides you with a stateful, cloud-based workspace to create mobile apps that integrate Mobile Services and Features. Using the Platform, you can upload mobile applications (individually a “Mobile App” and collectively “Mobile Apps”); select, configure and/or automatically integrate (“Fuse”) Mobile Services and Features to Mobile Apps; and sign and deploy those Fused Mobile Apps (as defined below) through private and public app stores. The primary purpose of the Platform is to enable you to use our proprietary Fusion (as defined below) to add implementations of a growing range of mobile services, mobile solutions, mobile SDKs, mobile APIs, features and other tool sets created by us or by 3rd parties (such implementations, “Mobile Services and Features” or “Mobile Services or Features”) into Mobile Apps without code or coding. Our Platform is unique, distinctive and owned exclusively by us and our licensors. Subject to the terms hereof, we license your access to and use of our Platform and the Mobile Services and Features on the Platform to you as part of our Service.
- Appdome’s Fusion Technology. We use artificial intelligence and a proprietary, no-code, mobile integration framework (together, “Fusion”) to add sets of dynamically created software code (each, a “Fusion Adapter”) to Mobile Apps based on the Mobile Services and Features you select on our Platform. Fusion, and each Fusion Adapter, is unique, distinctive and owned exclusively by us and our licensors. Subject to the terms hereof, we license your access to and use of Fusion and each Fusion Adapter in your Mobile Apps as part of our Service.
- Fused Mobile Apps. Each Mobile App that is Fused with Mobile Services and Features (a “Fused Mobile App”) contains one or more Fusion Adapters that (i) enables Mobile Services and Features in the app, (ii) connects or makes the Mobile App compatible with services enabled by those Mobile Services and Features, and/or (iii) manages the interactions between the Mobile App and the Mobile Services and Features. Each Fused Mobile App is a distinctive implementation created by us and generated from the selections you make on the Platform. Subject to the terms hereof, we license your use of each Fused Mobile App as part of our Service.
- Developer Tools. As a no-code mobile application framework, Appdome provides several developer options to use in connection with our Service, including but not limited to continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) APIs, dev-event frameworks, advanced developer options, debugging tools, scripts and other services (collectively “Dev Tools”). Appdome also creates several mobile applications (collectively, “Premium Support Apps”) used to support and diagnose networking, configuration, authentication, coding, policy and other variances found in Mobile App environments. You acknowledge and agree that such Dev Tools and Premium Support Apps are provided to you for the sole purpose of helping to ensure successful deployment of Fused Mobile Apps (and no other purpose). Dev Tools and Premium Support Apps are unique, distinctive and owned exclusively by us and our licensors. Subject to the terms hereof, we license your access to and use of each as part of our Service.
5. Subscriptions
- We Offer a Subscription-Based Model. Our Service is provided to you on a term-based, subscription basis. Your subscription is unique to you, your Mobile Apps and your activities on the Platform. You are solely responsible for any fees associated with your subscription.
- User Accounts. We offer multiple account types for users to use the Service. The current description of our user account types is available on our Site. We may privately offer different account types from time to time, on a promotional, permanent and/or individual basis. Depending on the account type you choose, some parts or all of your subscription may be free or may be fee-based and may be designed to accommodate specific or multiple use cases, administrators, features, and/or Mobile Services and Features and/or a specified number of mobile apps and/or mobile app end users (“End Users”). You are solely responsible for selecting the account type and services that meet your mobile integration needs. We assume no responsibility for the choices you make using our Service.
- Partner Accounts. If you are one of our commercial partners (“Partner”), including an ISV, MSV or channel Partner, your use of the Service may require a charge for using our Service, building Fused Mobile Apps, publishing, testing and/or maintaining a Mobile App or Mobile Services and Features on our Service. Other rights and responsibilities between you and us may be set forth in an agreement between you and us.
- Service Level Agreements. We will make our Service available to you in accordance with any Service Level Agreement (“SLA”) associated with the account you choose, as such SLA is published on our Site from time to time, unless you and we have agreed to a different SLA in a separate agreement between you and us. Please consider the SLA in making your account type decisions. We may update the SLA for your account type from time to time.
- User and Usage Limitations. Certain of our subscriptions may include usage-, user-, device-, audience-, service-, feature- and/or instance-based and/or other limitations. It is your responsibility to monitor and manage use of our Service, including use of Fused Mobile Apps, to comply with the terms of your license to use our Service. As part of our Service, we provide you dashboard functionality that assists you in monitoring the use of your Fused Mobile Apps. Any error in our dashboard functionality (e.g., displaying less than the actual use) does not relieve you of your responsibility to pay for your actual use. If you exceed any subscription or contractual limit, we may work with you to reduce your usage so that it conforms to the applicable limit. Unless we otherwise agree in writing, you agree to pay any amounts for such excess usage promptly upon presentation of an invoice for such amounts. Under no circumstance will we disable or suspend your access to the Service for such excess usage without first notifying you and giving you ten (10) calendar days to cure the excess, either by reducing activity with respect to the Service or through payment of additional fees.
- Additional User Fees for ISV and MSV Offerings. Some of the Mobile Apps and Mobile Services or Features made accessible by our ISV Partners and MSV Partners on our Service may require additional fees to implement, Fuse or use. For example, an MSV Partner may make its SDK available through Mobile Services or Features and charge a fee based on your access to such Mobile Services or Features or the use of such Mobile Services or Features by your End Users. Likewise, an ISV Partner may charge a fee to Users that wish to Fuse the ISV Partner’s Mobile App with one or more Mobile Services or Features on our Service. In some cases, we may provide payment options directly on our Service, or we may ask that you contact us or the specific ISV or MSV Partner for contracting options. You are solely responsible for paying any fees charged by an ISV or MSV Partner for the selected Mobile Apps or Mobile Services or Features before using them.
6. Permitted Use

11. Fees
- Fee Schedule. A current list of fees (“Fee Schedule”) is available at all times on our Site. The Fee Schedule may change from time to time, including prior to your purchase. Any changes or additions to our Fee Schedule are effective immediately unless we otherwise notify you. For any existing subscription, we will not raise fees listed in the Fee Schedule during the subscription term and, in connection with any renewal term, will provide at least thirty (30) days’ notice of a change in the Fee Schedule for such changes to be effective during the renewal term.
- General Purpose: Sale of Services, not Software. The purpose of this Agreement is for you to obtain licensed access to the Appdome Properties as permitted by Appdome. All fees set forth within and paid by you under the Agreement shall be considered solely in furtherance of this purpose without a right of offset or refund. In no way are the fees paid by you considered a payment for the license or use of Appdome Properties, including the Fusion Adapters or Fused Mobile Apps, beyond your subscription term.
- Payment. If applicable, you agree to pay, within thirty (30) days of the receipt of an invoice therefor (email acceptable), the fees associated with your account and your activities related to the Service in accordance with the Fee Schedule in effect at the time such fees arise. In some cases, we may charge for our Service based on (i) the number of users or instances of a Fused Mobile App that your End Users install on their mobile devices, (ii) the number of Mobile Apps you choose to use with our Service, (iii) the number of Mobile Services and Features you choose to use with our Service, (iv) the number of Fusions completed on our Service, or combinations thereof. In such cases, each use is licensed separately and generates a separately billable event. There may be several, separate Fusion Adapters Fused with several different Mobile Apps that reside on a single device of a single End User. Each such Fusion Adapter is separately licensed, and when installed, may create a separate billable event towards the account.
- Payment Provider. To access certain parts of our Service, Users may need to provide us with a valid credit card (Visa, MasterCard, or any other issuer accepted by us) or PayPal or other account (the “Payment Provider”) as a condition to signing up for our Service. Your Payment Provider agreement governs your use of the designated credit card or other account, and you must refer to that agreement to determine your rights and liabilities. By providing us with your credit card number or other account and associated payment information, you agree that we are authorized to charge your account at any time for all fees due and payable to us and that no additional notice or consent is required. You agree to immediately notify us of any change in your billing address or the credit card or other account used for payment hereunder.

If any payments under this Agreement are subject to Sales Tax in any jurisdiction and you have not remitted the applicable Sales Tax to us in a timely manner, you will be responsible for the payment of such Sales Tax and any related penalties or interest to the relevant tax authority, and you will indemnify Appdome for any liability or expense we may incur in connection with such Sales Taxes. Upon our request, you will provide us with official receipts issued by the appropriate taxing authority, or such other evidence that we may reasonably request, to establish that you have paid all applicable taxes. For purposes of this Agreement, “Sales Tax” shall mean any sales or use tax, and any other tax measured by sales proceeds that Appdome is permitted to pass to its customers and is the functional equivalent of a sales or use tax where the applicable taxing jurisdiction does not otherwise impose a sales or use tax.
- Withholding Taxes. You agree to make all payments of fees to Appdome free and clear of, and without reduction for, any withholding taxes. Any such taxes imposed on payments of fees to Appdome will be your sole responsibility, and you will provide Appdome with official receipts issued by the appropriate taxing authority, or such other evidence as we may reasonably request, to establish that such taxes have been paid.
- Additional Payment Terms. Unless otherwise stated, all fees are quoted in U.S. Dollars. You are responsible for paying all fees and applicable taxes associated with our Service in a timely manner using a valid payment method.

If you register for a free trial on our Service, we will make one or more services available to you on a trial basis free of charge (“Trial Services”) until the earliest of (1) the end of the free trial, (2) the start of your purchased subscription for the trial service, or (3) termination of the free trial by us or the applicable ISV Partner or MSV Partner for any reason (in each case, in its sole discretion). Additional trial terms and conditions may appear on the trial registration web page. Any such additional terms and conditions are “Supplemental Terms” and are incorporated into this Agreement by reference and are legally binding.

You waive California Civil Code §1542, which provides: “A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.” You also waive any rights you may have under any similar statute or law.
20. No Relationship with Your End Users
End Users who use your Fused Mobile Apps and/or services enabled by Mobile Services and Features, or with whom you perform any other transactions involving the Service, shall not be deemed to be the customers of Appdome.

21. Privacy
Appdome respects your privacy and the privacy of all End Users of Fused Mobile Apps. In order to verify your licensed use of our Service [and/or create reports for you], each Fusion Adapter contained in a Fused Mobile App generates an anonymous license ID to designate each install of a Fused Mobile App. For details, please see our Privacy Policy. As a condition to using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read the Privacy Policy and understand what information is collected by us, how it is collected, how it is used, and how it may be shared, including cookies and other technologies.

- Appdome Indemnity. Subject to Section 18, we agree to indemnify you from any action against you brought by any third party to the extent that the action is based upon a claim that the Service, including Fusion Adapters but excluding Fused Mobile Apps, infringes or misappropriates any copyright, trademark, moral right or trade secret and we will pay those costs and damages finally awarded against you in any such action that are specifically attributable to such claim or those costs and damages agreed to in a monetary settlement of such action.

25. Legal Disputes
Before invoking the arbitration agreement set forth in this Section 25 (“Arbitration Agreement”) we strongly encourage you to first contact us directly to seek a resolution through our Support Group.
- Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. You agree that any dispute or claim relating in any way to your access or use of the Service, or to any aspect of your relationship with Appdome, will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that (1) you or Appdome may assert claims in a small claims court set forth in Section 26 if the claims qualify, so long as the matter remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis; and (2) you or Appdome may seek equitable relief in a court set forth in Section 26 for infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights (such as trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights, and patents). Notwithstanding Section 26, any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator or court may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
BY AGREEING TO ARBITRATION WITH APPDOME, YOU ARE AGREEING THAT YOU WILL NOT PARTICIPATE IN OR SEEK TO RECOVER MONETARY OR OTHER RELIEF IN ANY LAWSUIT FILED AGAINST APPDOME ALLEGING CLASS, COLLECTIVE, AND/OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIMS ON YOUR BEHALF. INSTEAD, BY AGREEING TO ARBITRATION, YOU MAY BRING YOUR CLAIMS AGAINST APPDOME IN AN INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION PROCEEDING. IF SUCCESSFUL ON SUCH CLAIMS, YOU COULD BE AWARDED MONEY OR OTHER RELIEF BY AN ARBITRATOR. - Arbitration Rules and Forum. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement. To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to Appdome Inc.’s registered agent in the State of Delaware. The arbitration will be conducted by JAMS, an established alternative dispute resolution provider. Disputes involving claims and counterclaims under $250,000, not inclusive of attorneys’ fees and interest, shall be subject to JAMS’s most current version of the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and procedures, available at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/; all other claims shall be subject to JAMS’s most current version of the Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, available at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-comprehensive-arbitration/. JAMS’s rules are also available at www.jamsadr.com or by calling JAMS at 800-352-5267. If JAMS is not available to arbitrate, Appdome will select an alternative arbitral forum that is reasonably acceptable to you, and the terms of this Arbitration Agreement will apply to such arbitration mutatis mutandis. The number of arbitrators shall be one, and the seat, or legal place, of arbitration shall be San Mateo County, California, USA. The arbitration shall be conducted in English.
- Authority of Arbitrator. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, local or other court or authority, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute related to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Arbitration Agreement including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitration will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and Appdome. The arbitration proceeding will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award monetary damages and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the arbitral forum’s rules, and/or the Agreement (including the Arbitration Agreement). The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and us.
- Waiver of Jury Trial. YOU AND APPDOME HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JURY. You and Appdome are instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, except as specified in Section 25(a) above. An arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court and must follow this Agreement as a court would. However, there is no judge or jury in arbitration, and an arbitration award is subject to very limited court review.
- Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS, ONLY INDIVIDUAL RELIEF IS AVAILABLE, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER USER. In the event that this subparagraph is deemed invalid or unenforceable and such invalidity or unenforceability impacts a proceeding with respect to a claim, neither you nor we are entitled to arbitration with respect to such claim and instead such claim shall be resolved in a court as set forth in Section 26.
- Severability. If any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable, then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of the Arbitration Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
- Survival of Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with Appdome.
26. LAW AND FORUM FOR LEGAL DISPUTES
This Agreement and any action related thereto, to your access or use of the Service, or to any aspect of your relationship with Appdome, will be governed and interpreted by and under the laws of the State of California, consistent with the Federal Arbitration Act, without giving effect to any principles that provide for the application of the law of another jurisdiction. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to this Agreement. The exclusive jurisdiction and venue for any court proceedings or actions arising out of or relating to this Agreement, to your access or use of the Service, or to any aspect of your relationship with Appdome will be the California state and U.S. federal courts for San Mateo County, California, and both parties hereby submit to the personal jurisdiction of those courts and irrevocably waive any objection they may have to such venue.
27. EXPORT
You may not use, export, import, or transfer Appdome Properties except as authorized by U.S. law, the laws of the jurisdiction in which you obtained Appdome Properties, and any other applicable laws. In particular, but without limitation, Appdome Properties may not be exported or re-exported (a) into any country designated as a State Sponsor of Terrorism or subject to an embargo by the United States Government including Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, Syria, and the Crimea Region of the Ukraine, or (b) to anyone on the U.S. Treasury Department’s list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons or Foreign Sanctions Evaders List, or the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Denied Persons List, Entity List, or Unverified List (collectively, “Restricted Parties List”). By using Appdome Properties, you represent and warrant that (i) you are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a “terrorist supporting” country and (ii) you are not listed on any Restricted Parties List or any other U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties. You also will not use Appdome Properties for any purpose prohibited by U.S. law, including the development, design, manufacture or production of missiles, nuclear, chemical or biological weapons. You acknowledge and agree that products, services or technology provided by Appdome are subject to the export control laws and regulations of the United States. You shall comply with these laws and regulations and shall not, without prior U.S. government authorization, export, re-export, or transfer Appdome products, services or technology, either directly or indirectly, to any country in violation of such laws and regulations. You agree to obtain any and all licenses, authorizations, or approvals, and to complete and submit any necessary reports and filings, which are required for the export, re-export, or transfer of Appdome products, services, or technology under U.S. laws and regulations.
28. Open Source Features
Appdome strives to provide best practice implementations to its Users. As such, one or more features that you implement by using our Service may include open source software (“Open Source Software”), which is protected by the applicable copyright, patent or other intellectual property rights of the third-party licensor. Any use of such Open Source Software is subject to the terms of the applicable open source license agreement (“Open Source Agreement”), which may include provisions that expressly override some of the terms in this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement limits your rights under, or grants you rights that supersede, the terms and conditions of such Open Source Agreements. If required by any Open Source Agreement, Appdome makes the Open Source Software subject to such agreement, and Appdome’s modifications to such software, available by written request to Appdome at opensource@appdome.com. The Open Source Agreement for any Open Source Software provided through your use of the Service shall be made available to you upon your written request to Appdome. You agree that you will use the Open Source Software only under the terms set forth in the applicable Open Source Agreement. You agree not to upload any open source software to our Service that would cause the non-open source software portions of the Appdome Properties to be subject to any open source software licensing terms or obligations.
29.General

All amended terms shall automatically be effective immediately when they are initially posted, except as otherwise provided in such amendment.

For purposes of this provision, “writing” does not include an email message and “signed” includes electronic signatures.
