  Subscriber Agreement

Introduction
Welcome. The following contract spells out what you can expect from us. This Subscriber Agreement (the "Agreement"), along with the Disclaimer which are incorporated herein by reference, govern the relationship between you (referred to herein as "Subscriber, you, or your") and SecureDaycare Inc., a limited liability company (referred to herein as "Company, we, us, or our”) with respect to the use of Company’s website (SecureDaycare.com) and services.

Description of Services
The Company will provide you with video broadcasts of your child at his or her child care centre via the Internet. In the future, it is Company’s desire to give you and the child care centre the ability to post information on our website and to interact with each other through the use of e-mail, bulletin boards, and/or chat rooms. The Company will provide you with the ability to download any software which may be needed to utilize its service.

You acknowledge that the Company is not an Internet access provider and you will need to obtain your own Internet access provider (e.g., America Online, Rogers @ Home, Bell Sympatico, etc.). Further, you will need to obtain any equipment which may be necessary to connect to the Internet (i.e., a computer, a modem and a telephone line) which meet the specifications set forth at the bottom of the Enrollment Application. Please be aware that our website is not intended to serve as a security system for the childcare centres with which we contract and no video broadcasts are recorded in any form or shape. Accordingly, you acknowledge that the Company shall not be responsible for monitoring the activities of your child at the childcare centre.

Enrollment
You should complete the Enrollment Application (the "Enrollment Application") on the computer and submit it to us. You agree to (a) provide us with true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself as prompted by our Enrollment Application and (b) maintain and promptly update the information requested in our Enrollment Application to ensure that the information is true, accurate and current. If you provide us with any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, or if we have reasonable grounds to believe that such information is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, or if we believe that it would not be in the best interests of our other subscribers, their children, or the child care centre to accept your Enrollment Application, we, in our sole unfettered discretion, may reject your Enrollment Application or suspend or terminate your account with us and refuse to provide you with any and all current or future use of our services (or any portion thereof). Further, you understand that we may reject any Enrollment Application submitted to us without providing you with a reason for our rejection. Please be aware that your enrollment information and certain other information about you is subject to our Privacy Policy, which is made a part of this Agreement.

Password and Account
(a) We will randomly generate a username ("Username") and password ("Password") once your Enrollment Agreement has been approved. The Username and Password selected will be required to access our website. You may access our website only using your Username and Password. You shall not disclose your Username and Password to any other person or entity and shall make all reasonable efforts to maintain your Username and Password as secret and confidential. 
(b) You may require additional license (Username & Password) for use by close relative (e.g. Grandmother & Grandfather) for a small fee.
(c) You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your Username and Password, and for all use, whether authorized or unauthorized, of our website under your Username and Password. The Company shall have no obligation or liability with regard thereto. 
(d) You must promptly inform the Company if you suspect any breach of security, such as loss, theft, or unauthorized disclosure or use of Password or credit card number used in connection with the website. Until the Company is properly notified of a breach of security by e-mail notice at CustomerCare@SecureDaycare.com or by telephone at 416-363-2220, you will remain responsible for any unauthorized use of the website occurring under your Username and Password. Liability for unauthorized use of your credit card is subject to your agreement with your credit card company. 
(e) You assume and are solely responsible for any and all damages, losses, costs and expenses arising from any use by others of your passwords if you permitted that person to use your Username password. Further, you assume any and all resulting liabilities (whether civil or criminal) relating to such use, including responsibility for any and all services and Content (as defined below) accessed on our website. You agree to defend, indemnify and hold us, our affiliates and any of our or their respective officers, directors, employees or other agents harmless for any such use of our website by a person other than you or your partner.
(f) Logs of all accesses to the website may be kept and reviewed on monthly basis for security. 
(g) REMEMBER YOUR PASSWORD! If you forget your Password, the Company may disclose it to you under security procedures determined by the Company, which may result in substantial delays in your ability to access the website.
(h) Ensure that your exit from your account at the end of each session. The Company shall not be responsible or liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this requirement.

Please note that employees or representatives of the Company and its affiliated child care centres will never ask you for your Username and Password. Therefore, if you lose your passwords or would like new passwords, notify us immediately so that your password can be canceled and new passwords can be created by you.

Other
If there are inconsistencies between this Agreement and any other agreements between you and us (e.g., the Disclaimer or the Privacy Policy), the Disclaimer shall control. This Agreement, the Terms and Conditions, the Disclaimer and the Privacy Policy constitute the entire agreement between us relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement supersedes any prior agreements between us. You may also be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when you use affiliate services, third party content or third party software. Neither party will be liable or deemed to be in default of this Agreement for any delays or failure in performance under this Agreement resulting directly or indirectly from acts of God, lack of Internet Access or for any other reasons commonly known as Force Majeure. These terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law. You agree that any action at law or in equity arising out of or relating to these terms shall be filed only in the provincial or federal courts located in Toronto, Ontario and you hereby consent and submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for the purposes of litigating any such action. The failure of the Company to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these terms shall be unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from these terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to the use of our website or this Agreement must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or it shall forever be barred.

Fee Schedule
You agree to purchase a use license from us for $34.95 per month or for a yearly discounted price of $399.00 (the "Basic Fee") which will entitle you and your partner to unlimited usage of our services. You also agree to pay us any applicable taxes which may result from your use of our services. You may purchase an additional user license from us (e.g. UserName & Password) for $5.95 per month. You acknowledge that we reserve the right, at any time, to change our Basic Fee, our Additional user Fee or to add supplemental fees for new services or Content provided on our website, after providing you with at least thirty (30) days notice of a fee change, said notice to be posted on our website. We may also supplement this notice by sending you the changes (i) via regular mail or e-mail to the address provided in your Enrollment Application or (ii) through the use of pop-ups or other mechanisms on our website. Your continued use of our website following the effective date of any changes to our website shall constitute your acceptance of our changes.

You authorize us to charge our Fee (as defined above) to the credit card which you have provided to us on the Enrollment Application on the first business day of each month; however, if you begin our service in the middle of the month, we will only charge you a pro rata portion of our Fee and thereafter we will begin to charge your credit card on the first business day of each month. You agree that we may accumulate any Fees which you may owe us and charge them to your credit card at the beginning of any month, or at any time. You acknowledge that we reserve the right, at any time, to change our billing procedure after posting such changes on our website for a period of thirty (30) days.

Credit Card Payment Process 
Credit Card Authorization - The credit card information you supplied is automatically submitted for authorization, once you have submitted your Enrollment Application. This authorization process takes only seconds; once your credit card is authorized, you will be notified by e-mail confirming the successful authorization of your credit card and the completion of your registration process. 

Secure Payment Processing - The Company’s secure server software encrypts information to protect your credit card transaction. 

Unsuccessful Authorization - If, at the time of any billing, the Company is unsuccessful in its attempts to receive authorization for your credit card, the Company will automatically send you an e-mail informing you of this difficulty. You will be required to contact your credit card processor and/or bank immediately to determine the nature of the problem with your account, and to notify the Company immediately of your updated credit card information. In the interim, the Company will continue to attempt to successfully bill your account, each day, for up to 10 days. If the Company is unable to do so, and has not heard from you by the end of this 10-day period, your subscription will be terminated. 

Credit Card Expiration Date – You are responsible for notifying the Company of your credit card’s expiry date. In order to continue your subscription service, without interruption, you must supply the Company with updated credit card information, or a brand new credit card and expiration date prior to the expiration of your credit card. If the Center has not heard from you during this period, your subscription will be terminated. 

Credit Card Payments
You acknowledge that your use of our website signifies your authorization for us to charge our Fee to your credit card. You agree that if, for any reason, we are unable to charge our Fee to your credit card, you will, immediately, upon receiving notice from us either by regular mail or by e-mail, pay all amounts due and owing.

Please note that your credit card issuer agreement governs your use of your credit card in connection with our service and you must refer to that agreement in order to determine your rights and liabilities as a credit card holder. This Agreement is not intended to govern your rights and liabilities as a credit card holder.

If we fail to receive our entire Fee by the tenth (10th) day of the month, an additional two percent (2%) charge (or the maximum amount allowed by law, whichever is lower) per month will be added to our Fee and will immediately become due and payable. Further, you shall be liable for any costs and lawyer’s fees associated with our efforts to collect our unpaid Fees. If you choose to terminate your service as provided in this Agreement, you will still be responsible for our unpaid Fees.
Any discrepancies in our charges to your credit card must be brought to our attention, in writing, within ninety (90) days after they first appear on your credit card bill or they will be deemed accepted by you and your credit card issuer. Further, you agree to release us from any losses or liabilities that might arise from any claims by you or your credit card issuer which are a result of any discrepancies in our charges to your credit card which have not been brought within said ninety (90) days.
