I. GENERALLY.
These Terms and Conditions of Use constitute a legal agreement (the “Agreement”) between you and Westcor Tech, LLC (“Owner”) regarding your use of Owner’s website, www.closepin.com, and the interactive tools and content contained on that website (collectively “Closepin”). You will be deemed to have accepted and agreed to all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement each time you access and use Closepin. If you do not agree to all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement, you are not permitted to access or use Closepin.
Your right to use Closepin is subject to this Agreement and the following policies that are posted on Closepin from time to time: (i) the privacy policy; and (ii) any additional terms and conditions of use posted on Closepin from time to time (collectively, the “Policies”). Owner may modify this Agreement and the Policies at any time by posting revised versions on Closepin, and the modified versions will become effective immediately upon posting. By continuing to use Closepin after the effective date of any modifications to this Agreement or the Policies, you agree to be bound by those modifications. It is your responsibility to check Closepin regularly for modifications to this Agreement and any Policies.
In order to utilize Closepin, you must authenticate an account (“Account”) that will be established for you by Closepin. Closepin will provide you with a user ID to your Account, and you will create a password for accessing your Account. Your user ID and password are referred to in this Agreement as your “Credentials”. Your Account will contain certain personal information about you, including contact and billing information that you provide to Closepin (“User Information”). You may not reveal your Credentials to anyone else except for your employees, representatives, and agents for whom you designate on Closepin as an authorized user (“Authorized Users”). Owner shall not be responsible for any Losses (as defined below) arising out of the unauthorized use of your Account, and you are solely responsible for any and all charges, fees, and expenses incurred through your Account (including, without limitation, by Authorized Users or anyone obtaining Credentials through Authorized Users). You agree to provide accurate and complete User Information and to regularly update your User Information to ensure that it remains accurate and complete. You agree that Owner may store and use your User Information for the purpose of maintaining your Account, billing and collecting fees from you, and any other purpose deemed reasonable by Owner. Owner retains the right to suspend or cancel your Account, and the account of any Closing Agent, at any time in Owner’s sole and absolute discretion.
You or Owner may terminate your access to Closepin at any time, and for any reason. When your access to Closepin terminates, all rights granted to you under this Agreement shall automatically terminate and revert to Owner, and you shall immediately cease all use of Closepin. Termination of this Agreement or your access to Closepin shall not relieve you of any liability for your breach of any provision of this Agreement accruing or occurring prior to the termination, and you will remain liable for all amounts due under your Account up to and including the date of termination. Owner’s rights, and your obligations, shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.
II. CLOSEPIN’S PRODUCTS AND SERVICES.
Products and Services. Closepin is an online, software-as-a-service (“SaaS”) tool that enables you, as a lender, to manage and monitor your network of real estate closing agents (“Closing Agents”) and to verify their compliance with various insurance, licensing, registration, surety bond, and customer service requirements generally required by lenders. Closepin is also a SaaS tool that enables purchasers and borrowers in real estate transactions (“Consumers”) to shop and compare your Closing Agents’ costs to close real estate sale and finance transactions and obtain title insurance, such as closing fees and title insurance premiums. Closepin also provides reviews and ratings of Closing Agents by Consumers who use Closepin. Your Account contains a portal that permits you to review your Closing Agent network and all information available through Closepin about your Closing Agents.
Through your Account, you may also purchase compliance certificates for Closing Agents (“Compliance Certificates”). Closepin generally captures the following information about Closing Agents who are registered on Closepin: (i) the types and amounts of insurance coverage and surety bonds they carry, and evidence thereof such as insurance certificates and related proof of coverage; (ii) their licensure with state and local authorities to provide title insurance and real estate closing services; (iii) additionally, as part of the compliance validation process, Closepin will utilize public sites such as Better Business Bureaus and Consumer Financial Protection Bureaus and published complaints about Closing Agents that have been filed with those Bureaus; and (iv) various items of background information, such as criminal records and bankruptcy filings (“Closing Agent Information”). Notwithstanding any Compliance Certificate, or any marketing materials, communications, or other statements to the contrary, you acknowledge and agree that Closepin is relying on Closing Agents and third parties to provide the information contained on Closepin and in Compliance Certificates, and that Owner and Closepin will not independently verify the accuracy or completeness of the information provided. CLOSEPIN RELIES ON THIRD PARTY PROVIDERS FOR THE ACCURACY OF THIS INFORMATION, AND THERE IS NO REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY, OR GUARANTEE BEING MADE TO YOU THAT THIS INFORMATION IS ACCURATE, RELIABLE, OR CURRENT IN ANY RESPECT.
You will have the option to create various settings for your Account, such as: (i) whether you will be charged for Compliance Certificates, or whether you require Closing Agents to pay for them (which would require a separate commitment by the Closing Agent); (ii) the frequency for which you wish to update Compliance Certificates; and (iii) minimum insurance coverage requirements for Closing Agents. Any changes to these Account settings must be submitted by you in writing to sales@closepin.com.
Pricing. In the event that you select to pay the charges for Compliance Certificates, you will pay the charges set forth at http://www.closepin.com/lenders/pricing/ (the “Pricing Page”) from time to time. All charges are subject to applicable sales taxes based on the bill-to address and the applicable sales tax rate in effect at the time you incur the charges. You agree that you will pay for all charges that are incurred by you or through your Account, and that Owner may invoice you for all such charges and any related amounts (such as taxes). Prices and terms may change at any time, and Owner does not provide price protection or refunds in the event of a price reduction or promotional offering. If any products or services become unavailable following a purchase transaction but prior to your receipt of those products or services, your sole remedy is a refund of the amount actually paid to Owner by you. All billing invoices will be delivered to you to in the manner set forth in the Notices section below, and shall have a net 30-day payment requirement.
Closing Agents. When you engage a Closing Agent to provide services to you, you are entering into an agreement directly with that Closing Agent, and not with Owner or Closepin. Closepin obtains Closing Agent Information at certain specified times, namely when a Closing Agent creates an account on Closepin and each anniversary thereof, and any time you purchase a Compliance Certificate for that Closing Agent. Due to the fact that Closing Agent Information is not routinely reviewed and verified by Closepin, there can be no assurance that it is up to date when viewed by you. Owner does not represent, warrant, covenant, or guarantee to you: (i) that, at any given time, any Closing Agent has the experience, knowledge, certifications, or expertise that the Closing Agent represents having; (ii) that the Closing Agent is skilled or competent in the services that the Closing Agent provides; or (iii) any aspect of when or how the Closing Agent will perform any duties or obligations. You acknowledge that Closing Agents are not affiliates, subsidiaries, principals, agents, employees, or contractors of Owner, and that Owner has no role in how services are performed and delivered to you by Closing Agents. YOU AGREE THAT YOUR USE OF A CLOSING AGENT’S SERVICES IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK, AND THAT OWNER IS MAKING NO ASSURANCES TO YOU REGARDING THE QUALITY, PERFORMANCE, OR ACCURACY OF ANY SERVICES PROVIDED BY CLOSING AGENTS. IF YOU ARE NOT SATISFIED WITH THE NATURE OF SERVICES OR HOW THEY ARE PROVIDED, YOU AGREE TO LOOK SOLELY TO THE CLOSING AGENT, AND NOT TO OWNER, FOR CORRECTION AND REMEDIATION. OWNER DISCLAIMS ALL REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, AND COVENANTS ABOUT CLOSING AGENTS, THEIR SERVICES, AND HOW SERVICES ARE DELIVERED TO YOU.

VI. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.
Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida (without regard to the principles thereof relating to conflicts of law) and, where, applicable the Federal Arbitration Act and other applicable federal law, in each case without regard to principles of conflict of laws.
BINDING ARBITRATION. Any dispute or claim relating in any way to this Agreement, the Policies, or your use of Closepin will be exclusively resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you or Owner may assert claims in small claims court if they qualify. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages), and must follow the terms of this Agreement as a court would.
To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to our registered agent – Paracorp Incorporated, 2140 S. DuPont Hwy., Camden, DE 19934. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its rules, including the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes. The AAA’s rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA’s rules. The arbitration costs and expenses of each party shall be borne by that party.
You and Owner each agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated, or representative action. IF FOR ANY REASON A CLAIM PROCEEDS IN COURT RATHER THAN IN ARBITRATION, YOU AND OWNER EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section, Owner may seek injunctive or other relief in any state, federal, or national court of competent jurisdiction for any actual or alleged infringement of Owner’s, its affiliates’, or and third party’s intellectual property or other proprietary rights, and the prevailing party in such a proceeding shall be entitled to recover from the other party such prevailing party’s reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses arising from such action.
Other Provisions. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement is binding on Owner unless in writing and signed by Owner in each instance. This Agreement binds, and will inure to the benefit of, the parties and their respective successors and assigns. You may not assign your rights or delegate your obligations under this Agreement. In the event any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator to be unenforceable in any jurisdiction, then such portion or provision will be deemed to be severable as to such jurisdiction (but, to the extent permitted by applicable laws, not elsewhere) and will not affect the remainder of this Agreement, which will continue in full force and effect. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be so broad as to be unenforceable, such provision will be interpreted to be only as broad as is necessary for it to be enforceable. Owner and its affiliates will not be liable for any delay or failure to perform any obligation under this Agreement where the delay or failure results from any cause beyond Owner’s or its affiliates’ reasonable control. This Agreement shall be construed as if both you and Owner jointly prepared it, and no provision shall be construed against Owner on the basis that Owner prepared it. You acknowledge and agree that any breach or threatened breach by you of any of the covenants and restrictions related to usage of Closepin, intellectual property, proprietary information, termination, and your other responsibilities contained in this Agreement will give rise to irreparable injury which may not be adequately compensated by damages and, therefore, you agree that in the event of any such breach or threatened breach, Owner may seek and shall be entitled to injunctive relief and to the enforcement of these covenants and restrictions by specific performance, in addition to any other rights and remedies available hereunder or under applicable law. If you place a telephone call to Owner, you acknowledge and agree that the call may be recorded by Owner for quality assurance, training, and record-keeping purposes.
Electronic Communications and Signatures. When you use Closepin, or you send e-mails, text messages, or other communications from your desktop or mobile device to Owner or Closepin, you are communicating electronically. You consent to receive communications from Owner and Closepin electronically, such as e-mails, text messages, mobile push notices, or notices and messages posted on Closepin, and you can retain copies of these communications for your records. You agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications that Owner and Closepin provide to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing.
From time to time, you may be asked by Closepin to “click-to-accept”, to type your name, or to provide some other type of verification in order to make certain acknowledgements and agreements. You agree that, by clicking “ACCEPT” (or its equivalent), by typing your name, or by providing any other type of electronic confirmation that is requested, you are providing an electronic signature to Closepin that creates a legally binding obligation on you. You further acknowledge and agree that your electronic signature is the legal equivalent of a manual signature, and that no certification authority or other third party verification is necessary to validate the electronic signature in order to make the signature enforceable or evidence of a resulting contract.
