PaiBox’s Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy”), which addresses our information collection and use policies with respect to the privacy of your account information, is incorporated into this Agreement by reference for all purposes. Please read the Privacy Policy carefully for information relating to PaiBox’s collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information.
4. Account Information. If you register with us, or otherwise provide user information, you must complete the registration process by providing us with complete and accurate account information. You grant to us and to all other persons and entities involved in the operation of the Application the right to use, store, monitor, retrieve and transmit your account information in connection with the operation of the Application and as otherwise provided herein. You acknowledge, consent, and agree that PaiBox may access, preserve and disclose your account information and User Content (defined below) if required to do so by law or in a good-faith belief that such access, preservation or disclosure is reasonably necessary to (a) comply with legal process; (b) enforce the Agreement; (c) respond to any claim that User Content violates the rights of third parties; (d) provide certain customized features of the Application to you, if any; (e) respond if you contact PaiBox for any reason; or (f) protect the rights, property, or personal safety of PaiBox, its other users, and the public.

You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password and for restricting access to your device(s), and you agree to accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account or password. Where possible, users of public or shared devices should log out at the completion of each visit. If you have reason to believe that your account is no longer secure (for example, in the event of a loss, theft, or unauthorized disclosure or use of your email address or password), you must immediately notify PaiBox. Then, you should report this incident to all your card issuers, as well as your local law enforcement agency. YOU ARE SOLELY LIABLE FOR LOSSES INCURRED BY YOU, PAIBOX OR OTHERS DUE TO ANY UNAUTHORIZED USE OF YOUR ACCOUNT.

8. The Services. The Application will allow you to use AI technologies, including PaiBox’s proprietary AI agent Avina, to facilitate the procurement of property-related repair and maintenance services from Vendors, including Vendor quote collection and review, scheduling, communication, and project management (the “Services”). You understand that by using any of the Services, you may encounter content or communications that may be deemed offensive, indecent, or objectionable, which content or communications may or may not be identified as having explicit language. Nevertheless, you agree to use the Services at your sole risk and that PaiBox shall not have any liability to you for content that may be found to be offensive, indecent, or objectionable.
9. Use of Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) Technologies.
a. Generally. You may be allowed to interact with the Application in a variety of formats, which may include by contributing text, software, scripts, graphics, photos, sounds, music, videos, audiovisual combinations, interactive features and materials to the Services (“Inputs”). The Application may generate responses, which may include text, software, scripts, graphics, photos, sounds, music, videos, audiovisual combinations, forecasts, simulations, interactive features and materials (“Outputs”) based on your Inputs.
b. Limitations. While PaiBox strives for accuracy and reliability, the Services may have limitations and not fully understand or correctly interpret the Inputs they process. Consequently, errors may occur for numerous reasons, including due to:
i. Misinterpretation or misunderstanding of the Inputs;
ii. Skewed results and inaccurate predictions; and
iii. Inherent biases in the data PaiBox uses for training its models.
c. Rights, Responsibilities & Reliance on Outputs. When you use the Services you understand and agree that:
i. You are responsible for Inputs, including ensuring that such Inputs do not violate any applicable laws, the terms applicable to any third-party services that you access through the Application, or this Agreement. You represent and warrant that you have all rights, licenses, and permissions needed to provide Inputs to the Services.
ii. You may not submit any Inputs that are designed to manipulate, alter, or disrupt the functioning or behavior of the Application, including but not limited to requests that would cause the Application to ignore prior instructions or execute harmful or malicious actions.
iii. Outputs may not always be accurate and may contain material inaccuracies even if they appear accurate because of their level of detail or specificity.
iv. You must evaluate Outputs for accuracy and appropriateness for your use case, including using human review as appropriate, before using or sharing Outputs from the Services.
v. Due to the nature of our Services and AI generally, Outputs may not be unique and other users may receive similar Outputs from our Services.
vi. AI and machine learning are rapidly evolving fields of study. PaiBox is constantly working to improve the Services to make them more accurate, reliable, safe, and beneficial. Given the probabilistic nature of machine learning, use of the Services may, in some situations, result in Outputs that do not accurately reflect real people, places, or facts.
vii. PaiBox is committed to protecting your privacy. PaiBox does not source, access, or store any personally identifiable information or personal information in the data it uses for training and improving its AI models. If you would like to opt-out of PaiBox’s use of your Inputs in connection with training and improving PaiBox’s AI models, you may submit a request to privacy@paibox.com. PaiBox will use commercially reasonable efforts to process your opt-out request within ten business days of its receipt of such request.
viii. If you would like to delete your Inputs and/or Outputs from PaiBox’s Systems, you may (i) log in to the Services and manually delete the applicable Inputs and/or Outputs or (ii) submit a request to privacy@paibox.com. If you request PaiBox to delete your Inputs and/or Outputs, PaiBox will use commercially reasonable efforts to delete such information in accessible form within five business days after its receipt of such deletion request. Any Inputs or Outputs deleted by you (or by PaiBox upon your request) will be deleted from PaiBox’s archival Systems and PaiBox’s Systems that are not accessible to users within three months after the date of the deletion (or request for deletion by PaiBox in accordance with this Section) is processed. PaiBox shall have no liability with respect to the deletion of Inputs or Outputs. When used in this Agreement, “PaiBox Systems” means all information technology infrastructure, including the Application, computers, modems, servers, software, hardware, databases, electronic systems, networks, network and communications equipment and ancillary services that are owned, controlled or procured by PaiBox.
10. Fees; Project Pricing & Payment.
a. Application Fees and Billing. You may be required to pay us fees to access or use the Application or certain features of the Application.

You agree that we may charge the Payment Method for any applicable fees listed on the Application and any applicable tax. If the fees for the Application or Application features are specified to be recurring or based on usage, you agree that we may charge these fees and applicable taxes to the Payment Method on a periodic basis. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement or where required by law, all payments are non-refundable. Please check your order carefully before confirming it.

If we charge additional fees in connection with our Services, we will give you an opportunity to review and accept the additional fees before you are charged. Also, additional fees may apply for additional features of the Application that we may make available. If you do not accept any such additional fees, we may discontinue your access to the Application or pertinent features. You agree that we will not be held liable for any errors caused by third-party payment processors used to process fees paid by you to us.
c. Project Pricing & Payment. The Application allows Requesters to create a request for Vendor Services (defined below) (each, a “Project”) and request and receive cost estimates from Vendors for each Project (each, a “Quote”). Once a Project is accepted, the Application will display the Quote provided by the applicable Vendor and accepted by Requester. The Quote is not the final price in all instances and is subject to further amendment as may be agreed to between Vendor and Requester. Additional payment terms applicable to Requesters and Vendors are included in Appendix A and Appendix B, respectively.
11. User Content.
a. General. The Application may now or in the future permit you and other users to submit, post or link media, text, ideas, questions, audio and video recordings, photos, graphics, commentary or other information or content (“User Content”), and to host and/or share such User Content.

You understand and agree, however, that even following termination of your account, PaiBox may retain and use server copies of such User Content. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the above licenses granted by you are perpetual and irrevocable.

Our designated Copyright Agent to receive notifications of claimed infringement is:
FAILURE TO INCLUDE ALL OF THE ABOVE INFORMATION, ESPECIALLY SPECIFIC INFORMATION ABOUT WHERE INFRINGING CONTENT MAY BE FOUND, WILL RESULT IN A DELAY IN THE PROCESSING OF YOUR DMCA NOTIFICATION AND MAY RESULT IN YOUR HAVING TO REPEAT SOME OR ALL OF THE ABOVE PROCESS.
b. Notice and Takedown. If we receive proper notification of claimed copyright infringement, we will respond expeditiously by removing, or disabling access to, the material that is claimed to be infringing, as described below, or to be the subject of infringing activity. We will also comply with the appropriate provisions of the DMCA in the event a counter-notification is received, as described below. We may, at our discretion, deny access to the Application by, or disable and/or terminate the accounts of, users who may be infringers.
c. Copyright Counter-Notices. If content you posted on the Application was removed for copyright or intellectual property infringement, and you would like to dispute that removal, the process for counter-notifications, which is governed by Section 512(g) of the DMCA, is as follows: To file a counter-notification with us, you must provide our Copyright Agent, at the address set forth above, with a written communication that sets forth the items specified below. Please note that under Section 512(f) of the DMCA, any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification may be subject to liability.
d. Elements of Counter-Notification. To expedite our ability to process your counter-notification, please use the following format (including section numbers):
1. Identify the specific URLs of (or other information sufficient to allow us to identify) material that PaiBox has removed or to which PaiBox has disabled access.
2. Provide your full name, address, telephone number, email address and, if you are a registered user, the username of your PaiBox account.
3. Provide a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located and, if your address is outside of the U.S.A., the Federal District Court for the Southern District of New York, located in New York County, New York, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification to our Copyright Agent in accordance with the process outlined above or an agent of such person.
4. Include the following statement: “I swear, under penalty of perjury, that I have a good-faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled.”
5. Sign the notice. If you are providing notice by email, a scanned physical signature or a valid electronic signature will be accepted.
Send the communication to:
C-Star PaiBox Solutions Inc.
1250 Broadway, 36th floor
New York, NY 10001
e. Counter-Notification Processing. After we receive your counter-notification, we will forward it to the party who submitted the original claim of copyright infringement. Please note that when we forward the counter-notification, it includes any of your identifying information set forth in the counter-notification. By submitting a counter-notification, you consent to having such identifying information revealed in this way. We will not forward the counter-notification to any party other than the original claimant. After we send out the counter-notification, the claimant must then notify us within ten (10) days that he or she has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain you from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material on the Application. If we receive such notification, we will be unable to restore the items. If we do not receive such notification, we may, but are not obligated to, reinstate the disputed item(s).
f. Foreign Counter-Notification. If you reside outside of the United States, please understand that filing a counter-notice may lead to legal proceedings between you and the complaining party to determine ownership. Be aware that there may be adverse legal consequences in your country and/or the United States of America if you make a false or bad faith allegation by using this process. Please also be advised that we enforce a policy that provides for the termination in appropriate circumstances of access privileges for users who are infringers. If you are not sure whether content you posted on the Application is being infringed, or are otherwise unsure of whether to file a counter-notification using these procedures, we strongly recommend you first contact a lawyer knowledgeable in the laws of the United States and the State of New York.

APPENDIX A – SPECIAL REQUESTER TERMS
If you are a Requester, the following additional terms will apply to your use of the Application:
1. No Screening of Vendors. Vendors are not screened through a background check, license check, credit check, or any other formal screening procedure. PAIBOX MAKES NO GUARANTEE THAT VENDORS HAVE A CLEAN CRIMINAL RECORD OR APPROPRIATE LICENSES. PAIBOX IS NOT A PARTY TO ANY UNDERLYING CONTRACT BETWEEN REQUESTERS AND VENDORS, AND PAIBOX IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CONDUCT, WHETHER ONLINE OR OFFLINE, OF ANY USER INCLUDING VENDORS, AND WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM, INJURY OR DAMAGE ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SERVICES PROVIDED BY VENDORS.
2. VENDOR SERVICES DISCLAIMER. You understand and agree that: TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ALL GOODS AND SERVICES PROVIDED BY VENDORS (THE “VENDOR SERVICES”) ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS AND THAT PAIBOX ASSUMES NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY WITH RESPECT TO THE VENDOR SERVICES. PAIBOX EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT OR ANY WARRANTY THAT (A) VENDOR SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE OR ERROR-FREE, (B) ANY CONTENT OR INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE OR PAIBOX COLLECTS WILL NOT BE DISCLOSED, (C) ANY VENDOR, SERVICES OR GOODS SOLD OR PROVIDED IN CONNECTION WITH THE VENDOR SERVICES WILL BE FREE FROM DEFECT, (D) ANY ERRORS IN ANY VENDOR SERVICES WILL BE CORRECTED, (E) AS TO ANY VENDOR’S REGISTRATION, VENDOR’S ACCREDITATION OR LICENSE, (F) THE RESULTS THAT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE USE OF THE VENDOR SERVICES, OR (G) AS TO THE TIMELINESS, ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, QUALITY, SUITABILITY, SAFETY, COMPLETENESS OR CONTENT OF THE VENDOR SERVICES. NEITHER PAIBOX NOR ITS AFFILIATES, PARENTS, SUBSIDIARIES OR LICENSORS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CONDUCT, WHETHER ONLINE OR OFFLINE, OF ANY USER OF THE COMPANY’S SERVICES (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE CONDUCT OF ANY VENDORS). YOU AGREE THAT YOUR PARTICIPATION IN THE VENDOR SERVICES IS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
3. Payment for Projects. Requester may pay for a portion of the Project upfront (the “Upfront Payment”) and, in such instances, will pay for the remainder of the Project upon Project Completion (as defined below). Vendor and Requester may agree upon a change to the cost of the Project prior to Project Completion, and Requester may be charged an additional Upfront Payment. Upon booking, we may charge Requester’s credit card for a deposit. Upon Project Initiation (as defined below), we may charge Requester’s credit card for the Upfront Payment(s), and upon Project Completion, we will charge Requester’s credit card for the remainder of the amount owed in addition to all purchases and payments for reimbursement costs, fees, expenses or applicable taxes associated with the Project, and Requester hereby authorizes us to charge any credit card, debit card, or other payment method on file in Requester’s account or other previously approved payment methods for such amounts. “Project Initiation” is defined as when either the Vendor takes a substantial step in relation to the Project, including but not limited to (i) PaiBox paying any non-refundable deposit to a Vendor, and/or (ii) a Vendor drafting plans, applying for planning permission, ordering materials, seeking any permit, and/or arriving at the address of Requester to begin the Project. After PaiBox receives confirmation via the Application that the Project have been completed, as reasonably determined by PaiBox (“Project Completion”), we will mark the Project as completed; provided, however, that Project Completion shall be deemed to have occurred if Requester does not provide a sufficient response (as determined in PaiBox’s sole discretion) to PaiBox via the Application as it regards Project Completion within three (3) days of the Vendor confirming such via the Application. Requester acknowledges and understands that failure to pay the stated amount due before the due date will be considered a late payment and that, in such a case, Requester will be in default. Requester understands and acknowledges that if payment is late PaiBox shall be entitled to charge interest at a rate of 3.0% per month or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, whichever is greater. The late payment penalty will remain in effect until Requester completes full payment for the applicable Project. PaiBox reserves the right to retain an agent to collect any amounts due under this Agreement.
4. Refunds and Credits. No refunds or credits will be provided once Requester’s credit card, debit card, or other payment method has been charged, except that at our sole discretion, refunds or credits may be granted in extenuating circumstances. While we will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure the security of all credit card, debit card, or other payment method and all other personal information, we expressly disclaim any liability for any damage that may result should any information be released to any third parties, and you agree to hold us harmless for any damages that may result therefrom. Requester will be liable for all transaction taxes on the Project provided (other than taxes based on the PaiBox’s income). If we determine that your actions or performance may result in returns, chargebacks, claims, disputes, violations of our terms or policies, or other risks to PaiBox or third parties, then PaiBox may withhold any payments to you for as long as we determine any related risks to PaiBox or third parties persist.

PAIBOX IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CONDUCT, WHETHER ONLINE OR OFFLINE, OF ANY USER INCLUDING REQUESTERS, AND WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM, INJURY OR DAMAGE ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SERVICES PROVIDED TO REQUESTERS.

YOU AGREE THAT YOUR PARTICIPATION IN THE VENDOR SERVICES IS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
3. Independent Contractor. As a Vendor, you are an independent contractor of PaiBox, and nothing in this Agreement grants you the authority to bind PaiBox to any terms or obligations, whether contractual or otherwise, nor does it create any agency, employment, partnership, or joint venture relationship between you and PaiBox.

Notwithstanding the foregoing assistance:
