OUR TERMS
Terms are a binding agreement between You and SynopticDecisions, (“SynopticDecisions”, “RibbitUP Technologies”, or “We”). These Terms govern your use of the websites that link to these Terms. In these Terms, the word “Sites” refers to each of these websites and the services offered on those Sites. You automatically agree to these Terms and our Privacy Statement simply by using or logging into the Sites.
Please note that we offer many services. Your use of SynopticDecisions products or services is provided by SynopticDecisions according to a separate manually or digitally executed agreement. Those additional terms become part of your agreement with us if you use the services or log into the Sites.
1. Eligibility
You may be required to create an account and specify a password to use certain services or features on the Sites. To use SynopticDecisions, you must:
- be at least eighteen (18) years old and able to enter into contracts;
- complete the registration process;
- agree to the Terms; and
- provide true, complete, and up-to-date contact information.
Don’t try to impersonate anyone else when you create your account. If your information changes at any time, please update your account to reflect those changes.
By using SynopticDecisions, you represent and warrant that you meet all the requirements listed above and that you won’t use SynopticDecisions in a way that violates any laws or regulations. (Representing and warranting is like making a legally enforceable promise.) SynopticDecisions may refuse service, close accounts of any users, and change eligibility requirements at any time.
In some cases, an account may be assigned to you by an administrator, such as your employer or coworker. If you are using or logging into an account assigned to you by an administrator, additional terms may apply to your use of the Sites. Moreover, your administrator may be able to access or disable your account without our involvement.
You may not share your account with anyone else. Please keep your password confidential, and try not to use it on other websites. We’re not responsible for any losses due to stolen or hacked passwords. If you believe that your account has been compromised at any time, please notify us immediately.
2. Term
The Term begins when you sign up for SynopticDecisions and continues as long as you use the Service. Clicking the button and entering your username means that you’ve officially “signed” the Terms. If you sign up for SynopticDecisions on behalf of a company or other entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to accept these Terms on their behalf.
3. Changes
We may change any of the Terms by posting revised Terms of Service on our Website and/or by sending an email to the last email address you gave us. Unless you terminate your account within ten (5) days, the new Terms will be effective immediately and apply to any continued or new use of SynopticDecisions.
4. Modifications and Termination
We reserve the right to modify our Sites at any time, with or without notice to you. For example, we may add or remove functionality or features, and we may suspend or stop a particular feature altogether. We also reserve the right to charge a fee for any of our features at any time. If you don’t like any changes, you can stop using our Sites at any time.
5. Closing Your Account
You or SynopticDecisions may terminate this Agreement at any time and for any reason by giving Notice to the other party. We may suspend our Service to you at any time, with or without cause. If we terminate your account without cause, we’ll refund a prorated portion of your monthly prepayment or reimburse you for unused SynopticDecisions Credits. We won’t refund or reimburse you if there’s a cause, like a violation of these Terms or our Acceptable Use Policy. Once terminated, we may permanently delete your account and all the data associated with it, including any Content you’ve uploaded to our website. If you don’t log in to your account for 1 or more months, we may treat your account as “inactive” and permanently delete the account and all the data associated with it.
6. Content You Post
We offer a service to process data and documents using our technology, therefore we provide multiple ways for you to feed data (collectively, “Content”) into our system. You can only post Content if you own all the rights to that Content, or if another rights holder has permitted you.
You do not transfer ownership of your Content simply by posting it. However, by posting Content, you grant us, our agents, licensees, and assigns an irrevocable, perpetual (non-exclusive) right and permission to reproduce, encode, store, copy, transmit, publish, post, broadcast, display, publicly perform, adapt, modify, create derivative works of, exhibit, and otherwise use your Content. Without those rights, we couldn’t offer our Services. Please note that this license continues even if you stop using our Sites.
You agree to indemnify, release, and hold us harmless from all liability, claims, actions, loss, harm, damage, injury, cost, or expense arising out of any Content you post.
Keep in mind that if you send us any information, ideas, suggestions, or other communications, those communications will not be confidential. Moreover, unless we tell you otherwise, we reserve the right to reproduce, use, disclose, and distribute such communications without any obligation to you.
7. Content Posted by Others
We are not responsible for and do not endorse, Content posted by any other person. Accordingly, we may not be held liable, directly or indirectly, for any loss or damage caused to you in connection with any Content posted by another member.
8. Your Use of the Sites
Please do not use the Sites in a way that violates any domestic or international laws, infringes on anyone’s rights, is offensive, or interferes with the Sites or any features on the Sites (including any technological measures we employ to enforce these Terms).
If we (in our sole discretion) determine that you have acted inappropriately, we reserve the right to take down Content, terminate your account, prohibit you from using the Sites, and take appropriate legal actions.
Using our Site does not give you ownership of any intellectual property rights to the content you access. You may not use content from our Sites unless you obtain permission from us or its owner, or unless you are otherwise permitted by law.
When you use a Site or send communications to us through a Site, you are communicating with us electronically. You consent to receive electronically any communications related to your use of a Site. We may communicate with you by email, phone, or by posting notices on the Site. You agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications that are provided to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing. All notices from us intended for receipt by you shall be deemed delivered and effective when sent to the email address you provide to us. Please note that by submitting Content, creating a user account, or otherwise providing us with your email address, postal address, or phone number, you are agreeing that we or our agents may contact you at that address or number in a manner consistent with our Privacy Statement.
9. Refunds
You won’t be entitled to a refund from us under any other circumstances. We may offer a refund if a Member applies for one based on the sales contract.
12. Billing Changes
We may change our fees at any time by posting a new pricing structure to our Website and/or sending you a notification by email.
13. Privacy Policy

14. Intellectual Property

15. Our Warranties and Disclaimers
We provide our Services using a commercially reasonable level of care and promise to do our best to make sure you enjoy the Services. But there are certain things that we don’t promise about our Services.
OTHER THAN AS EXPRESSLY SET OUT IN THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, NEITHER SYNOPTICDECISIONS INC. NOR ITS AGENTS OR SERVICE PROVIDERS (THE “SERVICES ENTITIES”) MAKE ANY SPECIFIC PROMISES ABOUT THE SITES. FOR EXAMPLE, WE DON’T MAKE ANY COMMITMENTS ABOUT THE CONTENT WITHIN THE SITES, THE SPECIFIC FUNCTION OF THE SITES, OR THEIR RELIABILITY, AVAILABILITY, OR ABILITY TO MEET YOUR NEEDS. WE PROVIDE THE SITES “AS IS”.
SOME JURISDICTIONS PROVIDE FOR CERTAIN WARRANTIES, LIKE THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE EXCLUDE ALL WARRANTIES.
16. Liability for our Services
EXCEPT WHERE PROHIBITED, THE SERVICES ENTITIES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SITES OR ANY THIRD PARTY’S USE OF THE SITES. THESE EXCLUSIONS INCLUDE, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA, COMPUTER FAILURE, OR THE VIOLATION OF YOUR RIGHTS BY ANY THIRD PARTY, EVEN IF THE SERVICES ENTITIES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY THEREOF AND REGARDLESS OF THE LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY UPON WHICH THE CLAIM IS BASED.
17. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, you assume full responsibility for any loss that results from your use of the Website and the Services, including any downloads from the Website. We and our Team won’t be liable for any indirect, punitive, special, or consequential damages under any circumstances, even if they’re based on negligence or we’ve been advised of the possibility of those damages. Our total liability for all claims made about the Service in any month will be no more than what you paid us for the Service the month before.
18. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold us and our Team harmless from any losses, including attorney fees that result from any claims you make that aren’t allowed under these Terms due to a “Limitation of Liability” or other provision. (Indemnity is an agreement to compensate someone for a loss.) You also agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any losses, including attorney fees, that result from third-party claims that you or someone using your password did something that, if true, would violate any of these Terms.
19. Force Majeure
We won’t be held liable for any delays or failure in performance of any part of the Service, from any cause beyond our control. This includes, but is not limited to, acts of God, changes to law or regulations, embargoes, war, terrorist acts, riots, fires, earthquakes, nuclear accidents, zombie apocalypse, floods, strikes, power blackouts, volcanic action, unusually severe weather conditions, and acts of hackers or third-party internet service providers.
20. Additional Details
We may modify these Terms at any time so be sure to check back regularly. By continuing to use or log in to a Site after these Terms have changed, you indicate your agreement to the revised Terms. If you do not agree to the changes, you should stop using or logging in to the Sites.
The Sites may contain links to third-party websites and services. That doesn’t mean that we control or endorse those websites or any goods or services sold on those websites. Similarly, the Sites may contain ads from third parties. We do not control or endorse any products being advertised.
If you do not comply with these Terms, and we don’t take action right away, this doesn’t mean we’re OK with what you did, or we are giving up any rights that we may have such as taking action in the future.
If it turns out that a particular provision in these Terms is not enforceable, that will not affect any other provision.
