FutureOrb Terms of Use

1. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS

These Terms of Service (the “Agreement”) govern your use of the following services offered by GBL Systems Corporation ("GBL", “we”, “our”, “us”): the FutureOrb website, FutureOrb mobile applications, the MAC Address Registry, and the Wireless Name Registry (collectively “our services”). Your use of any of any of our services constitutes your acceptance of these terms. When registering for any of our services, you will be asked to accept this Agreement. If you do not agree to these Terms of Service, you may not use our services. Some of our services may also be governed by separate terms. If any of the terms for a particular service conflict with this Agreement, the terms of that agreement will govern solely for purposes of that service. We may update this Agreement from time to time. When we do so, we will post updated Terms of Service at www.futureorb.com/terms and may send you notice of the update as set forth in Section 26. We may also present updated Terms of Service to you when you access our services and ask you to consent to them. If you do not agree to the modified Terms of Service, you must cease using our services. Your use of any of our services after we have posted updated Terms of Service constitutes your acceptance of the changes.

2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES

GBL provides users with tools to manage content associated with Wireless Names (i.e., Wi-Fi names (also known as Service Set Identifiers or SSIDs), Bluetooth names, Zigbee identifiers, and other existing and future similar wirelessly transmitted names or expressions) and MAC addresses (hardware device identifiers that allow Wi-Fi- and Bluetooth-enabled devices to communicate wirelessly). Our two primary services are the MAC Address Registry and the Wireless Name Registry. The MAC Address Registry, a free service, allows users to associate links to web pages, images, videos, and other content with MAC addresses. The Wireless Name Registry, a paid service, allows users to associate links to web pages, images, videos, and other content with Wireless Names. For both services, users may wish to post content providing information about themselves or their businesses, including links to their social media accounts. We also may allow individuals to send messages to the registered owners of Wireless Names and MAC addresses if the registered owners provide an email address or other contact to receive such communications. We do not guarantee that the contact information is accurate. Users may be able to associate content with their own Wireless Names and MAC addresses as well as the Wireless Names and MAC addresses registered to other users. We may allow users some control over the content associated with the Wireless Names and MAC addresses that they have registered. You are responsible for obtaining access to our services.

That access may require you to obtain services from third parties, (such as access to the Internet or wireless data services). In addition, you must provide and are responsible for all equipment necessary to access our services. We do not collect information directly from a device associated with a particular Wireless Name or MAC address unless that device is used to access our services. Our registries merely associate a Wireless Name or MAC address with a registered owner and posted content. To do so, they do not need to connect with the devices associated with the Wireless Name or MAC address. For example, if you use your laptop to register the Wireless Name or MAC address of your tablet, we will be collecting information about your tablet, but we will not be connecting with your tablet. We will be connected only with the laptop you use to access our services. For more information about the information we collect and how we use it, please see our Privacy Policy at www.futureorb.com/privacy.

3. YOUR REGISTRATION OBLIGATIONS

  • Individual use

    You represent that you are of legal age to form a binding contract and are not a person barred from receiving our services under the laws of the United States or any other applicable jurisdiction. When you register for any of our services, you affirm the following: That all the information you provide during any registration process is true, accurate, current, and complete; That to the best of your knowledge, your registration of all the Wireless Names and MAC addresses that you register does not infringe or violate the rights of any third party; That you are not registering a Wireless Name or MAC address for an unlawful purpose; and That when you transfer ownership or dispose of a device, you will cancel the registration of the device’s MAC address. You represent that you will maintain and promptly update your registration information to keep it true, accurate, current, and complete.

  • Business use

    If you register for our services or use our services on behalf of a business, that business accepts these terms. That business will hold harmless and indemnify us and our affiliates, officers, agents and employees from any claim, suit or action arising from or related to the use of our services or violation of these terms. You represent that you are authorized to accept these terms on behalf of the business. If registering as an individual or business, when you register a MAC address with us, you represent that you own the device associated with that MAC address or that the device’s lawful owner has authorized you to register the MAC address.

You acknowledge, consent, and agree that we may access, preserve, or disclose your account information and Content if required to do so by law or in a good faith belief that such access preservation or disclosure is reasonably necessary to: (i) comply with legal process such as government or private subpoenas (without assuming any obligation to notify you of such requests); (ii) enforce this Agreement; (iii) respond to claims that any Content violates the rights of third parties; (iv) respond to your requests for customer service; or (v) protect the rights, property, or personal safety of us, those who use our services, or the public.

Users have the ability to report content that they believe is inappropriate on their mobile devices. Our goal in allowing users to flag content is to give the community a voice in keeping their GBL proximal experience friendly, useful, and safe.

Reasons why content may be reported or flagged include:

  • Insults or personal attacks
  • Profanity
  • Discriminatory remarks
  • Content better suited for a private message
  • Inappropriate pictures or web sites
  • Content is not limited to the above examples

When your content is flagged, we send you an email notification informing you of the flag. For privacy reasons, we don't disclose to you the name of the member who has flagged your content.

We may remove the flagged or reported content if we find it violates the intent of our Content Guidelines.  If we find a user is repeatedly having their content flagged and reported, we may remove all content by that user and suspend their account.

Upon receipt of a notification of copyright infringement that contains the required information described in (a) through (f) above, we will notify the user, if known, of the alleged infringement and remove or disable access to the material that is alleged to be infringing if hosted on the website.

Choice of Law and Forum. You and GBL each agree that the Agreement and the relationship between the parties shall be governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to its conflict of law provisions and that any and all claims, causes of action or disputes (regardless of theory) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the relationship between you and us, shall be brought exclusively in the federal and state courts located in the State of Delaware. You and we agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts, and agree to waive any and all objections to the exercise of jurisdiction over the parties by such courts and to venue in such courts.

Waiver and Severability of Terms. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

No Right of Survivorship and Non-Transferability. You agree that your account is non-transferable and any rights to your account or contents within your account terminate upon your death. Upon receipt of a copy of a death certificate, your account may be terminated and all contents therein permanently deleted. We may, at your request and our discretion, transfer information associated with your account or the registration of a MAC address or Wireless Name to a new account holder.

Miscellaneous. The section titles in this Agreement are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.

30. NO GUARANTEE OF REGISTRATION
