From time to time, the Company may offer new “beta” features or tools with which its users may experiment. Such features or tools are offered solely for experimental purposes and without any warranty of any kind, and may be modified or discontinued at the Company’s sole discretion. The provisions of this section apply with full force to such features or tools.

Each provision of this Agreement that provides for a limitation of liability, disclaimer of warranties, or exclusion of damages is intended to and does allocate the risks between the parties under this Agreement. Each of these provisions is severable and independent of all other provisions of this Agreement. All limitations of liability, disclaimers of warranties, and exclusions of consequential damages or other damages or remedies will remain fully valid, effective and enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, even under circumstances that cause an exclusive remedy to fail of its essential purpose. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF DAMAGES, LIABILITY OR CERTAIN WARRANTIES IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES. ACCORDINGLY, IN THOSE JURISDICTIONS, SOME OF THESE EXCLUSIONS OR LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY.
You agree to full liability and responsibility for Your use of the Service, and You will defend and indemnify Docyt and its officers, directors, employees, consultants, affiliates, subsidiaries and agents from and against every claim, liability, damage, loss, and expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, arising out of or in any way connected with: (a) Your violation of any portion of this Agreement, or any applicable law or regulation; (b) Your violation of any third-party right, including any intellectual property right, or publicity, confidentiality, other property or privacy right; or (c) any dispute or issue between You and any third party. We reserve the right, at Our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by You (without limiting Your indemnification obligations with respect to that matter), and in that case, You agree to cooperate with Our defense of that claim.
Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow 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 (although the arbitrator must abide by the contractual limits on damages in this Agreement) and must enforce applicable statutes of limitation and legal defenses.
Either You or the Docyt Parties can seek to have a Claim resolved in small claims court if all the requirements of small claims court are satisfied. Either You or the Docyt Parties may seek to have a Claim resolved in small claims court in your county of residence or the small claims court in closest proximity to Your residence, and You may also bring a Claim in small claims court in the Superior Court of California, County of Santa Clara.
The arbitrator shall issue a written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. The award shall be binding only among the parties and shall have no preclusive effect in any other arbitration or other proceeding involving a different party. Judgment on any award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This Agreement shall not preclude any party to the arbitration from at any time seeking injunctions or other forms of equitable relief in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction including whether a Demand for Arbitration is filed in violation of this Agreement.
This Agreement and all matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including any disputes between You and Docyt, will be governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflicts of law provisions. To the extent that any dispute or action relating to this Agreement is permitted to be brought in a court of law, You agree that the legal action or proceeding will be brought exclusively in the state courts located in Santa Clara County, California, or the federal courts in the Northern District of California. Subject to the provisions of Section 16, You and Docyt agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of and agree that venue is proper in the state courts located in Santa Clara County, California, or the federal courts in the Northern District of California in any legal action or proceeding.
We may modify or change this Agreement (including adding and deleting any terms), as well as its policies incorporated in this Agreement (collectively for purposes of this paragraph “Agreement”), at any time, in Our sole discretion by posting the updated Agreement on Our Website with such update effective on the new effective date of the Agreement. For material changes, We will provide notice of the change by posting the updated Agreement on Our Website or in any other reasonable manner of notice, 30 days in advance of the effective date (or where required by law or regulations upon shorter notice) of the Agreement. You will be deemed to have accepted and agreed to any revisions or changes to this Agreement at the time of (i) Your electronic acceptance of the revised, changed or new Agreement, or (ii) Your use of the Service after the effective date of the revised, changed or new Agreement. If the revised, changed or new Agreement is not acceptable to You, Your sole and exclusive remedy will be to stop using the Service and/or to cancel Your account as provided in Section 11.

If You invite a Vendor to set up a Docyt account, You acknowledge that it may take several business days to set up the Vendor in the Service. Docyt does not guarantee that a Vendor will be set up in the Service.
To use the Bill Payment Service, for each payment transaction, You must choose a payment method to pay Your Vendor. Available payment methods may include electronic ACH payment, check payment, Card payments, or virtual card payment. The payment method selected may be governed by additional Terms, including as set forth in other Schedules to this Agreement.

If a returned or refused payment is voided, You authorize Docyt to credit the amount of the payment to Your Payment Account, less any Service Fees or other amounts owed by You to Docyt.
You shall bear sole responsibility for any penalties, fees, or other charges arising from failed vendor payments or employee reimbursements caused by insufficient funds or incorrect account information while using Docyt application. While Docyt does not currently impose additional fees for such failures, the Company reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to implement and charge such fees in the future.

The accuracy of the Autopilot feature varies based on the quality and volume of data and is available to you only as an additional convenience. Autopilot is not designed to completely replace human oversight, and Docyt will not be held liable for, and you accept the risk of loss arising from, any error, delay, failure or inaccuracy of Docyt Autopilot.

You understand and agree that Docyt may use a third-party service provider (the “Virtual Card Provider”) to issue or manage the virtual cards used to execute payments requested or initiated through the Virtual Card Service, subject to Docyt’s responsibilities and representations under this Agreement.
You understand and agree that the virtual card payment option will be available only to pay Vendors that have confirmed that they accept virtual cards as a method of payment.
