The provisions of this section apply with full force to such features or tools.
IN NO EVENT SHALL DOCYT OR ITS SERVICE PROVIDERS BE LIABLE TO YOU, YOUR ORGANIZATION OR INDIVIDUAL, ANY USER, OR ANY THIRD PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SERVICE, FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSS OF INCOME, DATA, PROFITS, REVENUE OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR COST OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES, OR OTHER ECONOMIC LOSS, WHETHER OR NOT DOCYT OR ITS SERVICE PROVIDERS HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND WHETHER ANY CLAIM FOR RECOVERY IS BASED ON THEORIES OF CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE AND STRICT LIABILITY) OR OTHERWISE.

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.
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.
This Schedule 1 sets forth additional Terms that apply to all uses of the accounts payable services, features and functionalities (“Bill Payment Service”) of the Service. This Schedule is supplemental to and incorporated into the Agreement that governs the Service. All capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Terms.
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. Docyt reserves the right to change or limit the payment method options available to any Payer or Vendor, or to select the method by which a payment transaction will be made, all in Docyt’s sole discretion.
You may upload invoices, bills, statements of accounts from Vendors, or other documents (“Bills”) to the Inbox of Your Docyt account. You may also authorize Vendors to send electronic Bills to Your Docyt account, or You can create Bills using the Service. You are solely responsible for the Bills uploaded, created, recorded, processed, approved, paid, and/or synced or shared with third parties through Your Docyt account. Docyt is not responsible for any Bills, including those that are misdirected or not received.
Various modules in Docyt can receive documents like Bills, Receipts, Point of Sale data, etc. via emails sent to unique email ids associated with your Docyt account. If these email IDs are shared with Your Vendors, Employees, or other Individuals, then they can submit documents to Your Docyt account without restriction, and is outside the control of Docyt. As a result, Docyt will not be held liable for, and you accept the risk of loss arising from, any error, delay, failure or inaccuracy of Bills and other data getting processed in Your Docyt account through this process.
Docyt offers, and You may choose to use, an Autopilot setting (“Autopilot”) that can assist You in extracting information from Bills & Invoices, Receipts, Revenue Reports, Bank & Credit Card Transactions, and other similar back-office data, and further processing them for accounting categorization, and eventually automatically entering such information in to your connected accounting software. 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.
The Accountant Platform enables accountants and other financial services professionals (as subscribed to Docyt, each an “Accountant”) to manage and operate Docyt accounts for and/or on behalf of their professional services clients (“Clients”). To gain access to the features and functions of the Accountant Platform, You must subscribe to the Accountant Platform and pay all applicable Service Fees.
Your subscription to the Accountant Platform will enable You to: (a) invite Clients to create a Docyt account that will be linked to Your Accounting Firm’s Docyt account; (b) create a Docyt account on behalf of a Client, which will be linked to Your Accountant Platform; (c) invite Clients to link previously created Docyt accounts to Your Accountant Platform; (d) link previously created Client accounts to Your Accountant Platform; and (e) configure, manage, and/or operate the Service on behalf of Your Clients.

Each Accountant and Client understands and agrees that the Client accepts this Agreement separately from the Accountant. You represent and warrant to Docyt that You have obtained all required rights, consents or authorizations from Your Client to use the Service on the Client’s behalf and will provide proof of such consent upon reasonable request by Us.
Initiating Payments on Behalf of Your Clients. When You initiate a payment transaction or issue payment instructions on behalf of a Client through Your Accountant Platform account, You represent and warrant to Docyt that You have obtained all required rights, consents and authorizations to request or initiate ACH credit(s) or debit(s) to or from the Client’s Payment Account.
With an Accountant Platform Service subscription, You may customize the Client Docyt accounts linked to Your Accountant Platform Account with Your logo or brand. If You choose to use this customization feature, You acknowledge and agree that You have all necessary rights, licenses, and authorizations to do so and the customization does not infringe the rights or licenses of any third party. You acknowledge and agree that You are not an agent of Docyt and You have no authority to provide any representations, warranties or covenants with respect to the Accountant Platform Service or any other Service, and You will not purport to make any such representations, warranties or covenants on behalf of Docyt.
If You subscribe to the Accountant Platform Service, We grant You permission to state publicly that You are a customer of Docyt’s Accountant Platform Service, and a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable right and license to use and display the Docyt brand in accordance with our branding policies and guidelines, as updated and available on the Docyt Website or as provided to You.

We reserve the right to revoke or restrict any right or license granted under this subsection if You fail to comply with Docyt’s branding policies and guidance. All goodwill developed from Your use of the Docyt brand will accrue solely to the benefit of Docyt.
From time to time, Docyt may provide You with materials (Accountant Platform Materials”) related to the Accountant Platform Service. You agree to use Accountant Platform Materials only in the form provided and as directed by Docyt, and You will not alter Accountant Platform Materials without the express written permission of Docyt.
We reserve the right to revoke or restrict any right or license granted under this subsection if You fail to comply with Docyt’s branding policies, guidance, or directives.
No agency, partnership, joint venture, employment, or other similar relationship is created between an Accountant and Docyt as a result of this Agreement or the Accountant’s use of the Accountant Platform Service. This Agreement does not grant You the right to resell the Service, in whole or in part, to any person or entity.
