Here at Mosaic, we follow principles which endeavor to make sure that updates, notes, schedules, tasks, text, files, associated information and other materials and Project information you upload, post or otherwise submit (“Post”) to the Mosaic Services (“Project Content”) is yours, portable and secured.
1.2.1 By Posting Project Content to the Mosaic Services, you retain ownership of your Project Content, but you hereby grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual royalty-free license to use, copy, reproduce, process, adapt, publish, transmit, host, and display the Project Content solely for the purpose of (a) transmitting, publicly displaying, or distributing the applicable Projects to you and the other Users affiliated with your Project; and (b) analyzing and improving the Operation of the Mosaic Services.
1.2.2 Your Project Content is Yours. We do not own or claim ownership of your Project Content. However, by using the Mosaic Services, you give Mosaic permission to do certain things with your Project Content so that we can run the Mosaic Service. For example, you give us permission to back it up, send it over a network, index it for searching, display it on your various devices, etc. Some of these operations may require us to send your Project Content to our normal business partners, such as a network operator, that we have contracted with to provide parts of the Mosaic Services. Other than giving us the license set forth in Section 1.2.1 above, you retain all the rights to your Project Content.
1.2.3 You understand and agree that you will not obtain, as a result of your use of the Mosaic Services, any right, title, or interest in or to content (other than your Project Content) delivered via the Mosaic Services or in any intellectual property rights (including, without limitation, any copyrights, patents, trademarks, trade secrets, or other rights) in such content.

1.2.5 Privacy. When you Post Project Content to the Mosaic Services, it is set to “private” by default, which means that only Team Members on your Account can view it. You should think carefully, however, when creating a Project and posting Project Content if you are concerned about the confidentiality of any information contained in your Project Content. While Mosaic will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure your Project Content is viewed only by your Project Team, Mosaic will have no liability for any unauthorized disclosure of confidential information contained within your Project or Project Content.

Mosaic has discretion, however, to terminate the account of any user after receipt of a single notification of claimed infringement or upon Mosaic’s own determination.
1.2.10 Procedure for Reporting Claimed Infringement. If you believe that any content made available on or through the Mosaic Services has been used or exploited in a manner that infringes an intellectual property right you own or control, then please promptly send a “Notification of Claimed Infringement” containing the following information to the Designated Agent identified below.

[You must provide Mosaic [or our third party payment processor with a valid credit card (Visa, MasterCard, or any other issuer accepted by us) (“Payment Provider”), as a condition to signing up for a subscription to certain paid features of the Services. Your Payment Provider agreement governs your use of the designated credit card, and you must refer to that agreement and not the Agreement to determine your rights and liabilities.] Your subscription start date will commence the date you are provided access to Mosaic. You agree to immediately notify Mosaic or our third party payment processor, as applicable, of any change in your billing address or the credit card used for payment hereunder. Mosaic may also update your credit card details or other Payment Provider information using information provided by our payment service providers.

Mosaic reserves the right at any time to change its prices and billing methods on a going forward basis subject to any obligations to provide notice of such changes under applicable law.

Once a quarter we will automatically bill you prorated for new Users added from date of increase to the end of your current Term, including all applicable taxes.

Your Paid Account will remain in effect until it’s canceled or terminated under these Terms. Your subscription will automatically renew annually for a successive one year renewal, unless Mosaic is notified in writing by email to legal@mosaicapp.com at least 30 days before the expiration of the prior year’s subscription.

Any outstanding balance becomes immediately due and payable upon termination of the Terms for any reason.
1.5.5 Unpaid Fees other than amounts disputed in good faith are subject to a finance charge of 0.75% per month on any outstanding balance, or the maximum permitted by law, whichever is lower. In the event Mosaic must utilize a third-party collection agency to collect fees from Customer when Customer is delinquent in payment, Customer will be responsible for reimbursing Mosaic for all fees incurred with the third party collection agency.

1.12.1 Mandatory Arbitration. Please read this carefully. YOU AND MOSAIC AND EACH OF OUR RESPECTIVE CORPORATE PARENTS, SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, PREDECESSORS IN INTEREST, SUCCESSORS, PERMITTED ASSIGNS, AND ANY OTHER PARTIES ON WHOSE BEHALF YOU ARE ACCESSING THE MOSAIC SERVICE AGREE TO ARBITRATION (EXCEPT FOR MATTERS THAT MAY BE TAKEN TO SMALL CLAIMS COURT), AS THE EXCLUSIVE FORM OF DISPUTE RESOLUTION EXCEPT AS PROVIDED FOR BELOW, FOR ALL DISPUTES AND CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. Please visit www.adr.org for more information about arbitration.
1.12.2 Commencing Arbitration. A party intending to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by an international courier with a tracking mechanism, a written notice of intent to arbitrate (a “Notice”), or, in the absence of a mailing address Mosaic provides to you, via any other method available to Mosaic, including via e-mail. The Notice to Mosaic should be addressed to MosaicApp Inc, 58 West 40th Street, 3rd Floor New York, NY 10018, Attn: Chief Executive Officer (the “Arbitration Notice Address”). The Notice must (A) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (B) set forth the specific relief sought (the “Demand”). If you and Mosaic do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or Mosaic may commence an arbitration proceeding as set forth below or file a claim in small claims court. THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION (“AAA”) WILL ADMINISTER THE ARBITRATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMMERCIAL ARBITRATION RULES AND THE SUPPLEMENTARY PROCEDURES FOR CONSUMER RELATED DISPUTES (THE “Rules”), AS MODIFIED BY THESE TERMS. The Rules and AAA forms are available online at http://www.adr.org. If you are required to pay a filing fee to commence an arbitration against Mosaic, then Mosaic will promptly reimburse you for your confirmed payment of the filing fee upon Mosaic’s receipt of Notice at the Arbitration Notice Address that you have commenced arbitration along with a receipt evidencing payment of the filing fee, unless your Demand is equal to or greater than $1,000 or was filed in bad faith, in which case you are solely responsible for the payment of the filing fee.
1.12.3 Proceeding. The arbitration will be in English. A single independent and impartial arbitrator with his or her primary place of business in New York, New York will be appointed pursuant to the Rules, as modified herein. You and Mosaic agree to comply with the following rules, which are intended to streamline the dispute resolution process and reduce the costs and burdens on the parties: (A) arbitration will only be conducted if the damages sought exceed $75,000; (B) the arbitration will be conducted online and/or be solely based on written submissions, the specific manner to be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration; (C) the arbitration will not require any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing by the parties; and (D) any judgment on the award the arbitrator renders may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
1.12.4 No Class Actions. YOU AND MOSAIC AGREE THAT YOU AND MOSAIC MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. FURTHER, YOU AGREE THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE PROCEEDINGS OF MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING, AND THAT IF THIS SPECIFIC PROVISO IS FOUND TO BE UNENFORCEABLE, THEN THE ENTIRETY OF THIS MANDATORY ARBITRATION SECTION WILL BE NULL AND VOID.
1.12.5 Decision. Barring extraordinary circumstances, the arbitrator will issue his or her decision within 120 days from the date the arbitrator is appointed. The arbitrator may extend this time limit for an additional 30 days in the interests of justice. All arbitration proceedings will be closed to the public and confidential, and all records relating thereto will be permanently sealed, except as necessary to obtain court confirmation of the arbitration award. The award of the arbitrator will be in writing and will include a statement setting forth the reasons for the disposition of any claim. The arbitrator will apply the laws of the State of New York in conducting the arbitration. You acknowledge that these terms and your use of the Mosaic Services evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce. The United States Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation, enforcement, and proceedings pursuant to the Mandatory Arbitration clause in these Terms.
1.12.6 Equitable Relief. The foregoing provisions of this Section do not apply to any claim in which either party seeks equitable relief to protect such party’s copyrights, trademarks, or patents. You acknowledge that, in the event Mosaic or a third party breaches these Terms, the damage or harm, if any, caused to you will not entitle you to seek injunctive or other equitable relief against Mosaic, and your only remedy will be for monetary damages, subject to the limitations of liability set forth in these Terms.
1.12.7 Claims. You and Mosaic agree that, notwithstanding any other rights the party may have under law or equity, any cause of action arising out of or related to these Terms or the Mosaic Services, excluding a claim for indemnification, must commence within one year after the cause of action accrues. Otherwise, such cause of action is permanently barred.
1.12.8 All claims you bring against Mosaic must be resolved in accordance with this Section. All claims filed or br/ought contrary to this Section will be considered improperly filed.
