Keycafe Terms of Service

Last updated November 27, 2017.

Capitalized terms used in these Terms of Service have the meanings set forth in Section 11.9 below.

THESE TERMS ARE A CONTRACT BETWEEN YOU AND KEYCAFE AND GOVERN YOUR USE OF AND ACCESS TO THE SERVICE, THE EQUIPMENT, AND THE SITE, WHETHER IN CONNECTION WITH A PAID SUBSCRIPTION, FREE TRIAL, GUEST ACCESS OR ANY OTHER USE. BY ACCESSING, BROWSING, OR USING THE SERVICE, THE EQUIPMENT, OR THE SITE, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTAND, AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS AND THAT YOU WILL COMPLY WITH ALL APPLICABLE LAWS AND REGULATIONS. YOUR USE IS SUBJECT TO THE MOST RECENT VERSION OF THESE TERMS POSTED ON THE SITE AND IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO PERIODICALLY CONSULT THESE TERMS WHENEVER YOU INTEND TO USE THE SERVICE, THE EQUIPMENT, OR THE SITE. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS, DO NOT USE THE SERVICE, THE EQUIPMENT, OR THE SITE.

  1. Your Acceptance

    1.1. Acceptance by Use. By registering an account, picking up or dropping off a Key, selecting a Subscription Plan, permitting entry of Equipment into Your premises, using, hosting, installing or servicing Equipment, or by otherwise using the Site or Service (including, without limitation, any applications, content and functionality available through the Service), You accept and agree to be bound by these Terms and the Privacy Policy.
    1.2. Corporate Representative. If You are entering into these Terms on behalf of a company or other legal entity, then You represent and warrant that You have the authority to enter into these Terms on behalf of such entity and that from and after Your acceptance of the Terms, the Terms are binding upon the entity You represent, in which case the terms "You" and "Your" will refer to such entity.
    1.3. Age Restrictions. You represent and warrant that You are either older than 18 years of age, an emancipated minor, or possess legal parental or guardian consent, and are fully able, competent, and legally permitted to enter into the terms, obligations, affirmations, representations, indemnities, and warranties set forth in these Terms and to abide by and comply with these Terms. You further represent and warrant that You are over the age of 13, as the Service is not intended for children under the age of 13. If You are under the age of 13, then do not use the Service.
    1.4. Acceptance of Modifications by Use. Although Keycafe may attempt to notify You directly when major changes are made to these Terms, Keycafe may, in its sole discretion, modify or revise these Terms and the Privacy Policy at any time by posting such changes on the Site, and You agree that by continuing to use the Service after posting, You accept and are bound by such modifications or revisions.
  2. The Service

    2.1. Scope of Service. The Service provided by Keycafe is an online exchange for the management of access to and exchange of Keys. Keycafe and its Location Providers provide You with the means to manage listings of Keys, share access rights to Keys with other Customers, and a network of Locations and Equipment through which to exchange Keys.
    2.2. Users. Keycafe allows users who have accepted a Subscription Plan and created an account on the Service, or otherwise accepted these Terms, to utilize the Service in different ways and in one or more capacities, including, but not limited to:
    2.2.1. "End Users," who pick up or drop off Keys at Locations;
    2.2.2. "Location Providers," who own or operate cafes, restaurants, convenience stores, business offices, residential or commercial buildings or other venues that host Equipment on their premises for use by End Users, and who must also enter into a Location Provider Agreement;
    2.2.3. "Enterprise Users," who have a business use case for the Service that may include, without limitation, acting as a Location Provider on its own premises, onboarding its own staff and customers as End Users, programming a custom integration through the Keycafe API, connecting with and managing End Users' accounts directly or through an integration, offering co-branded or whitelabled Equipment at Locations, or utilizing the Service on a large scale for many Keys or through many Location Providers.
    (all of such users and any other users of the Service are collectively, "Customers").
    2.3. Customer Information. Customers using the Service must provide certain information, including but not limited to, name, email address, mobile telephone number, and Key aliases, and have the option to provide further identifying information related to Keys such as guest access information and addresses (collectively, "Customer Information") which are used for Your account access and to facilitate the exchange of Keys.
    2.4. Third Party Sharing Applications. You may choose to share Your Customer Information through the Service with other Customers of the Service, or through third party sharing applications ("Third Party Sharing Applications") to third parties outside the Service. Whether or not You authorized the third party to share Your Customer Information, You understand and agree that the Keycafe Group has no control over or ability to retract or delete any Customer Information shared through a Third Party Sharing Application, whether by You or by another Customer. Without limiting the foregoing, if You use a Third Party Sharing Application, and share Your third party account information with Keycafe, You agree that Your use of a third party API, content or its member or customer content is at all times subject to the terms and conditions of the third party terms of service, privacy policy and the documents incorporated therein.
    2.5. Third Party Websites. By using the Service, You expressly relieve the Keycafe Group from any and all liability arising from Your use of any third-party site or viewing any Customer Information shared by another Customer. The Keycafe Group has no control over, and assumes no responsibility for, the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third party. Keycafe cannot and will not censor or edit the content of any third-party site, or any Customer Information shared by a Customer.
    2.6. Your Right of Use. Subject to Your compliance with these Terms, once You create an account and become a Customer, Keycafe hereby grants to You a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferrable, and revocable license to: (i) view, download and print any information made available by Keycafe through the Service, including any information licensed from a third party (excluding Customer Information), (ii) view any Customer Information selectively shared with You by other Customers, solely for the intended and permitted purposes of the Service, and (iii) utilize the Service as intended to exchange or facilitate the exchange of Keys at Locations.
    2.7. Limitations on Your Right of Use. The Service is provided to You solely for the purposes expressly set out in these Terms. Without the prior written consent of Keycafe, it may not be downloaded, copied, reproduced, distributed, transmitted, broadcast, displayed, sold, licensed, or otherwise exploited for any purpose other than the use as intended through the provided functionality of the Service. Keycafe reserves all rights not expressly granted in and to the Service. Keycafe reserves the right to discontinue any aspect of the Service at any time for any reason.
  3. Equipment and Customer Keys

    3.1. Use of the Key Fob. Keycafe sources or originates Equipment necessary for the Service to function. The Key fobs used by End Users contain a device which provides tracking of the Key fob when integrated with the Service. However, Keycafe is only tracking the Key fob based on Keycafe's stored data and Keycafe has no information about the Key(s) attached to a particular Key fob, except for the alias and other information inputted by You at Your option. The Customer assumes full responsibility for protecting the identity of the Key, the point of access operated by the Key, and for selecting the Customer(s) to be given access to the Key. If the Key is not itself marked or identified to connect it to a specific point of access, and if the Customer does not disclose that point of access, then generally there is no way to discover through the Service the lock or device operated by the Key. There are no serviceable parts in the Key fob. If a Key fob fails, Keycafe's liability is limited to replacing the Key fob
    3.2. Use of Other Equipment. Location Providers generally have Equipment such as additional Key fobs, Key cabinets, Key exchange consoles, and automated Key exchange equipment. Once Location Providers authorize and begin hosting the Equipment on their premises, Keycafe generally has only such access to the Equipment as may be granted by the Location Provider or as may be required by the Location Provider Agreement entered into between Keycafe and such Location Provider. Keycafe believes the Equipment is robust, that Equipment failures are rare, and that most failures can be addressed by the Location Provider contacting Keycafe's customer service. However, Keycafe has no immediate or direct physical control over the use of the Equipment in any of the Locations and Keycafe assumes no liability for Equipment failure, or any delays caused by Equipment failure or any consequential damages. For clarity, the same provisions also apply to Equipment provided to Enterprise Users who are also Location Providers. If Equipment fails, Keycafe's liability is limited to repairing or replacing the Equipment, at Keycafe's option.
    3.3. Rights to Access Keys. For the security of all Customers, Keycafe depends on You to provide accurate access inputs and Keycafe will authenticate only the access authorized by You. Once Your Key is placed in Equipment at a Location, You agree that Your Key may be accessed only by You or Your authorized End Users according to Keycafe's access protocols on the Site. Keycafe will not grant access to Your Key to End Users, even if Keycafe believes You may have accidentally given access on the wrong dates or made some other accidental omission. You further acknowledge and agree that Keycafe cannot guarantee continuous physical access to Your Key and that Your physical access is subject to the operating hours and conditions existing at each Location. You agree that Your rights of ownership or possession as to Your Key do not entitle You or Your End Users to subvert or access the Equipment by any means except by Keycafe's protocols during the operating hours and subject to the conditions existing at each Location. You agree that Keycafe has the right in its sole discretion to access, move, or permit access to or movement of Your Key when it deems it reasonably necessary to the operation of the Service or the Equipment. Location Providers agree to take ordinary care to access Keys only according to Keycafe's access protocols or as otherwise instructed by Keycafe or its personnel in response to Equipment or Service failures.
    3.4. Lost Key Policy. Keycafe supports a lost Key policy to cover any Key that is lost or stolen during Your use of the Service. If You suffer a loss of a Key that can be verified by Keycafe to have been properly placed in Equipment, You will be compensated up to $100.00 (USD) upon presentation of a third party invoice for costs and expenses related to the replacement of the lost Key or door lock equipment ("Lost Key Policy"). The Lost Key Policy is limited to one Key per Key fob. Keycafe may elect, at Keycafe's option, to provide a double credit for Service in lieu of cash. If Your Key is lost, stolen, or damaged, Keycafe's liability is limited to Keycafe's Lost Key Policy.
    3.5. Closure of Locations. If Keycafe learns that a Location has closed or will close, or that a Location Provider will no longer operate as part of the Service, Keycafe will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain availability and to schedule a transfer of Keys to the nearest available Location. Keycafe will also notify You of the closing as soon as possible so You may pick up Your Key if You do not wish for Your Key to be transferred. If a Location closes, Keycafe's liability is limited to its obligation to use commercially reasonable efforts to transfer Your Key to the nearest available Location.
    3.6. Location and Enterprise Users' Businesses. Keycafe has no interest in or control over any business operated at any Location by any Location Provider or Enterprise User.
  4. General Use of the Service and the Equipment

These promotions are intended to give You an opportunity to sample the Service within a reasonable period of time. Keycafe may after a period of use send You one or more notifications requesting that You input Your billing information and subscribe as specified by Keycafe. If You do not subscribe or remove Your Keys from the Service within 15 days of the date of such notification, You agree that Keycafe may at its option remove and discard Your Key without further notice and with no liability to Keycafe.
