Terms of Use

Agreement to our legal terms

We are Guido Herrera, doing business as Showmate ("Company," "we," "us," "our").

We operate the website https://getshowmate.com (the "Site"), the desktop application Showmate (the "App"), as well as any other related products and services that refer or link to these legal terms (the "Legal Terms") (collectively, the "Services").

You can contact us by phone at (+1) 956-534-4764 or by email at contact@getshowmate.com.

These Legal Terms constitute a legally binding agreement made between you, whether personally or on behalf of an entity ("you"), and Guido Herrera, concerning your access to and use of the Services. You agree that by accessing the Services, you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by all of these Legal Terms. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH ALL OF THESE LEGAL TERMS, THEN YOU ARE EXPRESSLY PROHIBITED FROM USING THE SERVICES AND YOU MUST DISCONTINUE USE IMMEDIATELY.

Supplemental terms and conditions or documents that may be posted on the Services from time to time are hereby expressly incorporated herein by reference. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to make changes or modifications to these Legal Terms at any time and for any reason. We will alert you about any changes by updating the "Last updated" date of these Legal Terms, and you waive any right to receive specific notice of each such change. It is your responsibility to periodically review these Legal Terms to stay informed of updates.

We recommend that you print a copy of these Legal Terms for your records.

1. Our services

The information provided when using the Services is not intended for distribution to or use by any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation or which would subject us to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction or country.

The Services are not tailored to comply with industry-specific regulations (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA), etc.), so if your interactions would be subjected to such laws, you may not use the Services.

You agree to pay all charges at the prices then in effect for your purchases and any applicable shipping fees, and you authorize us to charge your chosen payment provider for any such amounts upon placing your order. We reserve the right to correct any errors or mistakes in pricing, even if we have already requested or received payment.

We reserve the right to refuse any order placed through the Services. We may, in our sole discretion, limit or cancel quantities purchased per person, per household, or per order. These restrictions may include orders placed by or under the same customer account, the same payment method, and/or orders that use the same billing or shipping address. We reserve the right to limit or prohibit orders that, in our sole judgment, appear to be placed by dealers, resellers, or distributors.

6. Subscriptions

Billing and renewal. Your subscription will continue and automatically renew unless canceled. You consent to our charging your payment method on a recurring basis without requiring your prior approval for each recurring charge, until such time as you cancel the applicable order. The length of your billing cycle is monthly.

Free trial. We offer a 14-day free trial to new users who register with the Services. The account will be charged according to the user's chosen subscription at the end of the free trial.

Cancellation. All purchases are non-refundable. You can cancel your subscription at any time by logging into your account. Your cancellation will take effect at the end of the current paid term. If you have any questions or are unsatisfied with our Services, please email us at contact@getshowmate.com.

Fee changes. We may, from time to time, make changes to the subscription fee and will communicate any price changes to you in accordance with applicable law.

Unless otherwise expressly stated, promotional pricing applies only for the promotional period. After the promotional period ends, the subscription will renew at the regular subscription price disclosed to you when you accepted the offer, unless you cancel before the applicable renewal or conversion date.

Promotional offers may be limited to eligible users and may not be combined, transferred, resold, or repeatedly redeemed through the creation of multiple accounts or other attempts to circumvent eligibility restrictions.

Where required by applicable law, we will provide applicable notices regarding automatic renewals, promotional periods, price changes, and cancellation rights.

7. Failed payments, grace periods, and suspension

You are responsible for maintaining a valid payment method for any paid subscription.

If a payment cannot be successfully processed, we or our payment processor may attempt to process the payment again using the payment method associated with your account.

Showmate may provide a grace period following a failed payment during which access to some or all paid features may continue. The availability or duration of any grace period does not waive the amount owed and does not, unless expressly stated otherwise, change the subscription's regular renewal date.

If payment remains unsuccessful, Showmate may restrict, suspend, or terminate access to paid features until the outstanding payment has been successfully resolved.

Reactivation following payment does not entitle you to an extension, refund, credit, or modification of the original subscription billing schedule unless Showmate expressly agrees otherwise or applicable law requires it.

16. Term and termination

These Legal Terms shall remain in full force and effect while you use the Services. WITHOUT LIMITING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THESE LEGAL TERMS, WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO, IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION AND WITHOUT NOTICE OR LIABILITY, DENY ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICES (INCLUDING BLOCKING CERTAIN IP ADDRESSES), TO ANY PERSON FOR ANY REASON OR FOR NO REASON, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION FOR BREACH OF ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY, OR COVENANT CONTAINED IN THESE LEGAL TERMS OR OF ANY APPLICABLE LAW OR REGULATION. WE MAY TERMINATE YOUR USE OR PARTICIPATION IN THE SERVICES OR DELETE YOUR ACCOUNT AND ANY CONTENT OR INFORMATION THAT YOU POSTED AT ANY TIME, WITHOUT WARNING, IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION.

18. Governing law

These Legal Terms and your use of the Services are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas applicable to agreements made and to be entirely performed within the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict of law principles.

19. Dispute resolution

Informal negotiations. To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to these Legal Terms (each a "Dispute" and collectively, the "Disputes") brought by either you or us (individually, a "Party" and collectively, the "Parties"), the Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided below) informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating arbitration. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one Party to the other Party.

Binding arbitration. If the Parties are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, the Dispute (except those Disputes expressly excluded below) will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WITHOUT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") and, where appropriate, the AAA's Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes ("AAA Consumer Rules"), both of which are available at the American Arbitration Association (AAA) website. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA Consumer Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. The arbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by either Party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. Except where otherwise required by the applicable AAA rules or applicable law, the arbitration will take place in Hidalgo County, Texas. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Parties may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.

If for any reason, a Dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the Dispute shall be commenced or prosecuted in the state and federal courts located in Hidalgo County, Texas, and the Parties hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction, and forum non conveniens with respect to venue and jurisdiction in such state and federal courts. Application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the Uniform Computer Information Transaction Act (UCITA) are excluded from these Legal Terms.

In no event shall any Dispute brought by either Party related in any way to the Services be commenced more than one (1) year after the cause of action arose. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.

Restrictions. The Parties agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the Parties individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.

Exceptions to informal negotiations and arbitration. The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal negotiations binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a Party; (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.

22. Limitations of liability

IN NO EVENT WILL WE OR OUR DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFIT, LOST REVENUE, LOSS OF DATA, OR OTHER DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED HEREIN, OUR LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY CAUSE WHATSOEVER AND REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF THE ACTION, WILL AT ALL TIMES BE LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT PAID, IF ANY, BY YOU TO US DURING THE SIX (6) MONTH PERIOD PRIOR TO ANY CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING.

CERTAIN US STATE LAWS AND INTERNATIONAL LAWS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES. IF THESE LAWS APPLY TO YOU, SOME OR ALL OF THE ABOVE DISCLAIMERS OR LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU, AND YOU MAY HAVE ADDITIONAL RIGHTS.

23. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold us harmless, including our subsidiaries, affiliates, and all of our respective officers, agents, partners, and employees, from and against any loss, damage, liability, claim, or demand, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, made by any third party due to or arising out of: (1) use of the Services; (2) breach of these Legal Terms; (3) any breach of your representations and warranties set forth in these Legal Terms; (4) your violation of the rights of a third party, including but not limited to intellectual property rights; or (5) any overt harmful act toward any other user of the Services with whom you connected via the Services. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we reserve the right, at your expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter for which you are required to indemnify us, and you agree to cooperate, at your expense, with our defense of such claims. We will use reasonable efforts to notify you of any such claim, action, or proceeding which is subject to this indemnification upon becoming aware of it.

24. User data

We will maintain certain data that you transmit to the Services for the purpose of managing the performance of the Services, as well as data relating to your use of the Services. Although we perform regular routine backups of data, you are solely responsible for all data that you transmit or that relates to any activity you have undertaken using the Services. You agree that we shall have no liability to you for any loss or corruption of any such data, and you hereby waive any right of action against us arising from any such loss or corruption of such data.

25. Local data and backups

Local Storage of Application Data. Certain data created, imported, recorded, generated, or otherwise processed through the App, including without limitation show records, sales information, buyer information, bundle information, videos, analytics, notes, and other operational data ("Local Application Data"), may be stored locally on the device on which the App is used.

Unless a feature expressly states otherwise, Local Application Data is not automatically uploaded to, stored by, backed up by, or synchronized with Showmate's servers or the user's Showmate account. Logging into the same Showmate account on another device does not automatically make Local Application Data from the original device available on the other device.

User Rights in Local Application Data. As between Showmate and the user, the user retains all rights the user may have in Local Application Data created, imported, or stored through the user's use of the App. Showmate does not claim ownership of Local Application Data merely because such data was created, processed, or stored using the App.

The user remains responsible for ensuring that the user has all rights, permissions, and lawful authority necessary to collect, use, store, or process any information concerning customers, buyers, employees, or other third parties through the App.

Account Association and Local Data Access. Showmate may associate Local Application Data, including individual shows or records, with the Showmate account or email address under which such data was created. The App may use this association to determine which shows, records, or other Local Application Data are ordinarily displayed to a logged-in user.

Such account association and filtering are provided for organization and convenience only and do not constitute encryption, data segregation, account-level storage isolation, or a security or access-control mechanism.

Local Application Data associated with other Showmate accounts may remain stored on the same device even when it is not displayed through the App's ordinary interface. Such data may potentially be accessed by persons who have access to the device, its file system, local application files, backups, administrative accounts, or other means of accessing locally stored information.

Logging out of a Showmate account, changing accounts, or otherwise ceasing to display Local Application Data within the App does not necessarily delete, encrypt, isolate, or otherwise restrict access to that Local Application Data on the device.

User Responsibility for Device Security. The user is solely responsible for maintaining appropriate security for the device on which Local Application Data is stored, including, as the user determines appropriate, device passwords, operating-system user accounts, disk or file encryption, physical security, malware protection, access controls, and other security measures.

Except to the extent expressly provided by the App or required by applicable law, Showmate does not undertake to provide device-level encryption, account-level encryption, local file-system security, physical device security, or protection against access to Local Application Data by other persons or software having access to the user's device.

The user is responsible for determining whether the security of the device and its operating environment is appropriate for the nature and sensitivity of the information the user chooses to store or process through the App.

Backups and Data Loss. The user is solely responsible for maintaining appropriate backups of Local Application Data and for verifying that any backups are complete and usable.

Unless Showmate expressly offers a cloud backup or synchronization feature and specifically identifies particular data as being covered by that feature, users should not rely on Showmate or their Showmate account as a backup or recovery service for Local Application Data.

Loss, theft, damage, replacement, reset, corruption, malfunction, or failure of a device; deletion or modification of files; operating-system failure; malware; user error; software conflicts; or uninstalling or reinstalling the App may result in the permanent loss of Local Application Data.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Showmate is not responsible for the loss, deletion, corruption, unauthorized access, inability to recover, or inability to transfer Local Application Data resulting from circumstances outside Showmate's control or from the user's failure to maintain appropriate device security or backups.

No Guarantee of Recovery or Synchronization. Showmate does not guarantee that Local Application Data can be recovered, restored, transferred to another device, or reconstructed after loss or deletion. Showmate may have no possession of, access to, or technical ability to recover Local Application Data stored exclusively on the user's device.

Any export, import, backup, restoration, or migration functionality provided by the App is provided as a convenience and does not relieve the user of responsibility for maintaining independent and appropriate backups of Local Application Data.

Data Maintained by Showmate. This Section applies to Local Application Data stored on the user's device. It does not eliminate or limit any obligations Showmate may have under applicable law with respect to personal information or other data that Showmate itself collects, receives, stores, or controls, such as account, authentication, subscription, or other information maintained through Showmate's online services.

26. Electronic communications, transactions, and signatures

Visiting the Services, sending us emails, and completing online forms constitute electronic communications. You consent to receive electronic communications, and you agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications we provide to you electronically, via email and on the Services, satisfy any legal requirement that such communication be in writing. YOU HEREBY AGREE TO THE USE OF ELECTRONIC SIGNATURES, CONTRACTS, ORDERS, AND OTHER RECORDS, AND TO ELECTRONIC DELIVERY OF NOTICES, POLICIES, AND RECORDS OF TRANSACTIONS INITIATED OR COMPLETED BY US OR VIA THE SERVICES. You hereby waive any rights or requirements under any statutes, regulations, rules, ordinances, or other laws in any jurisdiction which require an original signature or delivery or retention of non-electronic records, or to payments or the granting of credits by any means other than electronic means.

28. Miscellaneous

These Legal Terms and any policies or operating rules posted by us on the Services or in respect to the Services constitute the entire agreement and understanding between you and us. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Legal Terms shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. These Legal Terms operate to the fullest extent permissible by law. We may assign any or all of our rights and obligations to others at any time. We shall not be responsible or liable for any loss, damage, delay, or failure to act caused by any cause beyond our reasonable control. If any provision or part of a provision of these Legal Terms is determined to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision or part of the provision is deemed severable from these Legal Terms and does not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. There is no joint venture, partnership, employment or agency relationship created between you and us as a result of these Legal Terms or use of the Services. You agree that these Legal Terms will not be construed against us by virtue of having drafted them. You hereby waive any and all defenses you may have based on the electronic form of these Legal Terms and the lack of signing by the parties hereto to execute these Legal Terms.
