Third Party Services and Offerings

Third Party Links. The Services may link to or permit you to access
other

responsible
or liable for the content, functions, accuracy, legality, appropriateness or any
other aspect of
such websites or resources, including without limitation, third-party servers you

-
Third Party Offerings on the Services. Third parties may market and
sell
products and services
for sale or license in Services. If you purchase or license any of the add-on
products or
services offered by those businesses or individuals, you acknowledge and agree that
you are
purchasing or licensing such items directly from those third parties, not from us.
We are not
responsible for examining, evaluating, or verifying such products or services. We do
not
represent or warrant that any third-party product, service offerings or other
content is
accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free. We assume no responsibility or
liability
for such items, and you shall hold us harmless from the same. You should carefully
review such
third party’s privacy statements and other conditions of sale or use. You
acknowledge and agree
that in connection with your purchase, license, access, use or download of
third-party offerings
or Content, we may collect information about your use of and access to the offering
and related
Content (including identifying you in connection with such information) and share it
with such
third party.
-
Third Party Offerings using the name Laravel. Many services and
third parties
use the name
Laravel or variants of the same in connection with their products and services. We
are not the
owner or operator of all such companies, products or services; and we assume no
liability for
products or services that are not owned and operated by us. These Terms of Service
only apply to
products or services owned and operated by Laravel and offered by us under
https://laravel.com/.
-
Laravel Forge VPS Feature Servers. If you have purchased a license
to the
Laravel Forge VPS
feature, you acknowledge and agree that our liability to you in connection
therewith, arising
from any third-party server resource or third-party provider thereof, shall not
exceed the
pro-rata amounts of liability Laravel is paid by the applicable third-party provider
in
connection therewith.
-
Payments and Billing.
-
Paid Services. Certain of our Services may be subject to payments
now or in the
future as
indicated by us (the “Paid Services”). Please note that any payment
terms
presented to you in the process of using or signing up for a Paid Service, or
otherwise provided
to you by Laravel as set forth below, are deemed part of these Terms of Service.
Payment is due
upon invoicing. We reserve the right to change our fees and payment terms in our
sole
discretion; provided that, changes to fees will not take effect for you until the
start of the
next payment period. Your continued use of the Services after the price change
becomes effective
constitutes your agreement to pay the changed amount. You acknowledge and agree that
Laravel is
not responsible for any additional fees charged to you by your third- party server
providers not
provisioned through the Laravel VPS feature in connection with Laravel Forge.
-
Billing.
-
Payment Processor. We use a third-party
payment processor (the “Payment Processor”) to bill you
through a payment account linked to your Account on the Services (your
“Billing Account”) for use of the Paid Services. The
processing of
payments will be subject to the terms, conditions and privacy policies of
the
Payment Processor in addition to these Terms of Service. We are not
responsible for error by the Payment Processor. By choosing to use Paid
Services, you agree to pay us, through the Payment Processor, all charges at
the prices then in effect for any use of such Paid Services in accordance
with
the applicable payment terms and you authorize us, through the Payment
Processor, to charge your chosen payment provider (your “Payment
Method”). You agree to make payment using that selected Payment
Method.
We reserve the right to correct any errors or mistakes that it makes even if
it has already requested or received payment.
-
Taxes. Fees for Paid Services do not include taxes, levies,
duties or
similar
governmental assessments of any nature (collectively, “Taxes”). You are
responsible for
paying
all taxes associated with your purchases on the Services, including without
limitation,
all use
or access of the Services by your Users. If we have the legal obligation to
pay or
collect Taxes
for which you are responsible under this section, we will invoice you and
you shall pay
that
amount unless you provide us with a valid tax exemption certificate
authorized by the
appropriate taxing authority. Taxes may not be deducted from payments to us,
except as
required
by applicable law, in which case you shall increase the amount payable as
necessary so
that,
after making all required deductions and withholdings, we receive and retain
(free from
any
liability for Taxes) an amount equal to the amount we would have received
had no such
deductions
or withholdings been made. Upon our request, you shall provide us with proof
of
withholding tax
remittance to the respective tax authority. If applicable, you shall provide
your
VAT/GST
Registration Number(s) to confirm the business use of the purchased
services. Unless
otherwise
mutually agreed in writing, all payments shall be made in United States
Dollars from
within the

Payment Method. The terms of your payment will
be based on your Payment Method and may be determined by agreements between
you and the financial institution, credit card issuer or other provider of
your chosen Payment Method. If we, through the Payment Processor, do not
receive payment from you, you agree to pay all amounts due in your Billing
Account upon demand. You agree that Laravel is not responsible for any
additional fees charged to your credit card or other Payment Method
provider.
-
Recurring Billing Some of the Paid Services
may
consist of an initial period, for which there is a one-time charge, followed
by recurring period charges as agreed to by you. By choosing a recurring
payment plan, you acknowledge that such Services have an initial and
recurring
payment feature, and you accept responsibility for all recurring charges
prior
to cancellation. WE MAY SUBMIT THE PERIODIC CHARGES (E.G., MONTHLY) WITHOUT
FURTHER AUTHORIZATION FROM YOU, UNTIL YOU PROVIDE PRIOR NOTICE (RECEIPT OF
WHICH IS CONFIRMED BY US) THAT YOU HAVE TERMINATED THIS AUTHORIZATION OR
WISH
TO CHANGE YOUR PAYMENT METHOD. SUCH NOTICE WILL NOT AFFECT CHARGES SUBMITTED
BEFORE WE REASONABLY COULD ACT. TO TERMINATE YOUR AUTHORIZATION OR CHANGE
YOUR
PAYMENT METHOD, PLEASE EMAIL [email protected]. IN ADDITION, WE RESERVE
THE
RIGHT TO INVOICE YOU MORE FREQUENTLY IF YOUR USAGE IS LARGER THAN
ANTICIPATED
WHEN ESTABLISHING YOUR BILLING FREQUENCY. Your non-termination or continued
use of a Paid Service reaffirms that we are authorized to charge your
Payment
Method for that Paid Service. We may submit those charges for payment, and
you
will be responsible for such charges. This does not waive our right to seek
payment directly from you. Your charges may be payable in advance, in
arrears,
per usage, or as otherwise described when you initially selected to use the
Paid Service and as otherwise directed by Laravel in accordance with the
foregoing terms.
-
Current Information RequiredYOU MUST PROVIDE
CURRENT,
COMPLETE AND ACCURATE INFORMATION FOR YOUR BILLING
ACCOUNT. YOU MUST PROMPTLY UPDATE ALL INFORMATION TO KEEP YOUR BILLING
ACCOUNT
CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE (SUCH AS A CHANGE IN BILLING ADDRESS, CREDIT
CARD NUMBER, OR CREDIT CARD EXPIRATION DATE), AND YOU MUST PROMPTLY NOTIFY
US
OR OUR PAYMENT PROCESSOR IF YOUR PAYMENT METHOD IS CANCELED (E.G., FOR LOSS
OR
THEFT) OR IF YOU BECOME AWARE OF A POTENTIAL BREACH OF SECURITY, SUCH AS THE
UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OR USE OF YOUR USER NAME OR PASSWORD. CHANGES TO
SUCH
INFORMATION CAN BE MADE AT [email protected]. IF YOU FAIL TO PROVIDE ANY
OF
THE FOREGOING INFORMATION, YOU AGREE THAT WE MAY CONTINUE CHARGING YOU FOR
ANY
USE OF PAID SERVICES UNDER YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT UNLESS YOU HAVE TERMINATED
YOUR PAID SERVICES AS SET FORTH ABOVE. IF PAYMENT IS NOT RECEIVED OR CANNOT
BE
CHARGED TO YOUR CURRENT PAYMENT METHOD FOR ANY REASON IN ADVANCE, WE RESERVE
THE RIGHT TO EITHER SUSPEND OR TERMINATE YOUR ACCESS TO THE SERVICES AND
TERMINATE THESE TERMS OF SERVICE; AND FOR DOMAIN REGISTRATIONS, WE MAY NOT
REGISTER THE DOMAIN OR MAY ALLOW THE DOMAIN REGISTRATION TO EXPIRE
-
Change in
Amount
Authorized If the
amount to be charged to your Billing Account varies from the amount you
preauthorized (other than due to the imposition or change in the amount of
state sales taxes), you have the right to receive, and we shall provide,
notice of the amount to be charged and the date of the charge before the
scheduled date of the transaction. Any agreement you have with your payment
provider will govern your use of your Payment Method. You agree that we may
accumulate charges incurred and submit them as one or more aggregate charges
during or at the end of each billing cycle.
-
Auto-Renewal
for
Subscription
Services. Unless either
you or we
opt out of auto-renewal with written
notice provided to the other at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of
the
then-current subscription term, any subscription services you have signed up
for will be automatically extended for successive renewal periods of the
same
duration as the subscription term originally selected, at the then-current
list price; and such notice to Laravel shall be sent to [email protected].
If
you terminate a subscription Service in accordance with the foregoing, you
may
use your subscription until the end of your then-current term; your
subscription will not be renewed after your then-current term expires in
such
case. However, you won't be eligible for a prorated refund of any portion of
the subscription fee paid for the then-current subscription period.
-
Overages Add-Ons, Upgrades, and Usage based
fees.
f you exceed the entitlements or usage limitations included
in the subscription licenses authorized by us, or if you use any add-ons,
upgrades, or additional usage fee based services, then we will invoice you
for
the same at our then current list rates unless another price for the same is
mutually agreed in writing, and you agree to and shall pay such additional
fees upon request.
-
Betas, Evaluations, Free Trials and Other Promotions. Any beta
Service,
evaluation, free trial
or other promotion must only be used within the specified time of the trial,
evaluation, or
promotion period. You must stop using a Paid Service before the end of such period
in order to
avoid being charged for that Paid Service. If you cancel prior to the end of the
trial period
and are inadvertently charged for a Paid Service, please contact us at
[email protected]. Beta
Services, evaluations, free trials and promotions may only be used for your
personal,
non-commercial use and solely to determine whether you wish to proceed with a
further business
relationship with us. We may change the terms and conditions applicable to these
Services at any
time and reserve the right to disable or remove these Services and any project or
websites on
these Services with or without notice in our sole discretion. All of these Services
are provided
AS IS, WITH ALL FAULTS, and AS AVAILABLE, without any warranties, support
obligations, or
liabilities of any kind.

Confidential Information
-
Each party
(the
"Receiving Party") understands that the other party (the "Disclosing Party") has
disclosed or
may disclose business, technical, product or financial information or data relating
to the
Disclosing Party's business (hereinafter referred to as "Proprietary Information" of
the
Disclosing Party). Proprietary Information of Laravel includes non-public
information regarding
features, functionality and performance of the Services. Your Proprietary
Information includes
Your Data but excludes Aggregated, De-Identified Usage Data. The Receiving Party
agrees: (i) to
take reasonable precautions to protect such Proprietary Information, and (ii) not to
use (except
in performance of the Services or as otherwise authorized in these Terms of Service)
or divulge
to any third person any such Proprietary Information. The Disclosing Party agrees
that the
foregoing shall not apply with respect to any information after five (5) years
following the
disclosure thereof or any information that the Receiving Party can document
(a) is or becomes generally available to the public, or (b) was rightfully in its
possession or
known by it prior to receipt from the Disclosing Party, or (c) was rightfully
disclosed to it
without confidentiality restrictions by a third party, or (d) was independently
developed
without use of any Proprietary Information of the Disclosing Party as evidenced by
its internal
files. If a Receiving Party is required by law or a governmental agency to disclose
the
Disclosing Party's Proprietary Information, the Receiving Party must provide
reasonable notice
to the Disclosing Party of such required disclosure (unless prohibited by law) to
permit the
Disclosing Party a reasonable period of time to seek a protective order or limit the
amount of
Proprietary Information to be disclosed.
