Terms of Service

What this Agreement covers

These Terms of Service (this "Agreement") form a binding contract between NorthRidge Systems LLC, a Pennsylvania limited liability company ("NorthRidge," "we," "us"), and the individual or business that creates an account or uses the FieldMetrx™ platform, the Axel™ AI assistant, the iOS and Android mobile applications, the web application, and all related services (collectively, the "Platform"). By creating an account, signing in, downloading the mobile app, or otherwise using the Platform, you agree to this Agreement, our Privacy Policy, and our Acceptable Use Policy.

You may only use the Platform if you are at least eighteen (18) years old, have the legal capacity to enter into this Agreement, and are not barred from using the Platform under any applicable law. If you are accepting on behalf of a company or other entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity to this Agreement, and "you" refers to both you and that entity.

The Platform is intended for licensed sewer, drain, plumbing, and trenchless contractors and their authorized employees and subcontractors. You may not use the Platform to provide services to third parties on a service bureau, hosting, or outsourcing basis without our prior written consent.

Account Registration

• You must provide accurate and complete information when creating an account, and keep that information current.
• You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account, whether authorized or not.
• You will protect your password, will not share login credentials, and will notify us immediately at Support@northridgesystem.com of any suspected unauthorized access.
• We may require multi-factor authentication for sensitive operations.

Authorized Users

• Your account administrator may invite employees or contractors to use the Platform under your subscription.
• You are responsible for the acts and omissions of every authorized user as if they were your own.
• You will ensure each authorized user has read, understands, and complies with this Agreement, the Acceptable Use Policy, and the Privacy Policy.

Subscription Plans

Access to the Platform is provided on a paid subscription basis, except for any free trial period that we expressly offer. Pricing, features, and usage limits are described at the time you select a plan. We may change pricing on renewal with at least thirty (30) days advance notice.

Billing

• Subscription fees are billed in advance on a recurring basis (monthly or annually) by our payment processor.
• All fees are stated in U.S. Dollars and are exclusive of applicable taxes, which you are responsible to pay.
• Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing cycle until you cancel.
• You may cancel renewal at any time from your account settings or by contacting Support@northridgesystem.com.

App Store Purchases

If you purchase a subscription through the Apple App Store or Google Play, billing is handled by Apple or Google under their terms. To cancel, you must use the subscription management tools in your Apple ID or Google account. We cannot process refunds for App Store or Google Play purchases; refund requests must be submitted to the relevant store.

Refunds

Subscription fees paid directly to NorthRidge are non-refundable except where required by law or as we may grant in our sole discretion. Cancellation stops future renewals; it does not entitle you to a refund of fees already paid for the current term.

Failure to Pay

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Platform if your subscription becomes past due. We will give you reasonable notice and an opportunity to cure before suspension where practicable. Past-due amounts accrue interest at the lesser of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, plus reasonable costs of collection.

Fixed-Term Commitments

If you have entered into a fixed-term commitment with NorthRidge (for example, an annual subscription or a Core, Falcon, or Founders tier order form), early termination, renewal, and any liquidated damages or accelerated payment of remaining contract value are governed by the terms of that order form, which control over this Section 3 to the extent of any conflict.

Subject to your compliance with this Agreement and timely payment of all applicable fees, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to access and use the Platform solely for your internal business operations during your active subscription term.

You will not:

• copy, modify, translate, or create derivative works of any portion of the Platform;
• reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive the source code, prompts, models, or underlying ideas of the Platform, except to the extent this restriction is prohibited by applicable law;
• rent, lease, lend, sell, sublicense, distribute, or transfer the Platform or any access credentials to any third party;
• use the Platform to build, train, improve, or inform any product or service that competes with the Platform or any component of it;
• scrape, harvest, or extract data, prompts, screens, or AI outputs from the Platform other than in the ordinary course of authorized use;
• use any robot, spider, crawler, or other automated means to access the Platform other than our published APIs in compliance with their documentation;
• interfere with or disrupt the Platform, the servers or networks supporting it, or any other user's use of the Platform;
• access or use the Platform in violation of any applicable law or regulation, or in violation of the Acceptable Use Policy.

Your Data

As between you and NorthRidge, you own and retain all right, title, and interest in and to the data you and your authorized users submit to the Platform, including job records, customer records, photos, videos, voice notes, proposals, and field reports ("Customer Data"). You grant NorthRidge a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, transmit, process, display, and otherwise use the Customer Data solely as necessary to provide, maintain, secure, and improve the Platform, to enforce this Agreement, and as described in the Privacy Policy.

Your Responsibilities

• You represent and warrant that you have all rights, consents, and authority necessary to submit the Customer Data to the Platform and to allow us to process it as described in this Agreement.
• You are responsible for the accuracy, quality, and legality of all Customer Data and for obtaining any consents required from your customers and employees (including for photos, recordings, and signatures).
• You will maintain your own backups and exports of any Customer Data that is critical to your business.
• Where you are a data controller and we act as a data processor on your behalf, the Privacy Policy and any applicable data processing addendum govern that processing.

Service Data

We may collect and use anonymized, aggregated usage and performance data that does not identify you, your authorized users, or your customers to operate, secure, and improve the Platform. This Service Data is not Customer Data.

Customer Communications and SMS

If you use any Platform feature to contact a customer or homeowner, including optional SMS features, you are the sender and the party responsible for that communication. NorthRidge provides software and messaging infrastructure; it does not become the service provider, merchant, contractor, or customer relationship owner for your business.

• You will send messages only to people your business is authorized to contact and only for lawful, accurate, and non-deceptive purposes.
• You will obtain and document all consent required by applicable law before sending SMS, including any separate consent required for marketing or promotional messages. Consent must identify your business and the types of messages you intend to send.
• Before registering or enabling an SMS campaign, you will maintain a customer-facing privacy notice and consent disclosure on your own business website or other publicly reachable booking/consent page, and keep that disclosure accurate and accessible to campaign reviewers and recipients.
• You will not use purchased, scraped, harvested, or third-party lists unless you have independently verified a lawful basis and the required consent for each recipient.
• You will clearly identify your business, use accurate sender information, honor customer preferences, and promptly suppress numbers that opt out or are otherwise ineligible to receive messages.
• You will provide an appropriate non-SMS contact method and will not make a customer purchase, payment, or access to emergency services conditional on consenting to marketing texts.
• You will not send unlawful, abusive, harassing, threatening, fraudulent, deceptive, discriminatory, or prohibited content, and you will comply with carrier, messaging-provider, TCPA, state mini-TCPA, consumer-protection, privacy, and other applicable requirements.
• You are responsible for your message content, timing, frequency, customer support, complaints, consent records, opt-out records, provider registrations, campaign approvals, and any claims, fines, carrier filtering, or other consequences arising from your messages.

SMS features may support operational communications such as appointment reminders, technician status updates, invoice or payment notices, receipts, and review invitations. Review invitations must not imply that a customer should submit a positive review or offer an incentive that violates applicable law or a review platform's rules. Marketing or promotional campaigns require the additional consent and disclosures required by law. SMS features are optional and are not active for a tenant until NorthRidge makes them available and the tenant completes any required account, provider, or compliance setup.

NorthRidge does not sell, rent, or share a customer's mobile number or text-message consent with any third party or affiliate for that party's marketing or promotional use. Messaging service providers may handle those items only as necessary to deliver the tenant-authorized messages and related compliance functions.

Where supported, recipients may reply STOP, UNSUBSCRIBE, CANCEL, END, or QUIT to stop SMS messages, or HELP for assistance. You must maintain the resulting suppression and honor it across your messaging activity. Message and data rates may apply, message frequency varies, and carriers do not guarantee delivery. NorthRidge may suspend or disable messaging for suspected abuse, unlawful content, elevated complaint rates, provider requirements, or other risk, without relieving you of responsibility for your customer communications.

Your use of the Platform is subject to our Acceptable Use Policy, which is incorporated into this Agreement by reference. Violations of the Acceptable Use Policy are a material breach of this Agreement and may result in warning, suspension, or termination at our discretion.

Important: AI Outputs Are Advisory Only

Axel™ is an artificial intelligence assistant that produces inferences, recommendations, classifications, proposal drafts, and diagnostic suggestions based on your inputs and on third-party AI models. AI outputs may be inaccurate, incomplete, or unsafe and must not be treated as professional advice or a substitute for the judgment of a qualified, licensed technician.

Your obligations when using Axel™

• Independently verify every recommendation, pricing figure, defect classification, and proposal before acting on it or presenting it to a customer.
• Do not rely on AI outputs for emergency, safety-critical, or life-safety decisions.
• Do not represent AI outputs to customers as a professional inspection report unless reviewed and signed off by a qualified technician on your team.
• Comply with all applicable AI transparency, consumer protection, and licensing laws in your jurisdiction when using or sharing AI outputs.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NORTHRIDGE DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY FOR ANY DECISION OR ACTION YOU OR YOUR AUTHORIZED USERS TAKE BASED ON AXEL-IQ™ OUTPUTS. YOU AGREE THAT YOU AND YOUR ORGANIZATION ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PROFESSIONAL JUDGMENT EXERCISED IN YOUR FIELD WORK, PROPOSALS, AND CUSTOMER COMMUNICATIONS.

Each party may disclose confidential information to the other in connection with this Agreement. The receiving party will use the disclosing party's confidential information only to perform under this Agreement, will protect it with at least the same degree of care it uses for its own confidential information of like importance (and in no event less than reasonable care), and will not disclose it to any third party except to its employees, contractors, and advisors who have a need to know and who are bound by confidentiality obligations no less protective than those in this Agreement. These confidentiality obligations survive termination for five (5) years, and indefinitely with respect to trade secrets.

NorthRidge and its licensors own all right, title, and interest in and to the Platform, including the Axel™ prompts and underlying logic, the JOB / AXEL / DX / PROPOSAL workflows, the flat-rate pricing engine, the Good/Better/Best proposal logic, the FieldMetrx™ and Axel™ and StormCall™ trademarks, all software, models, training data, documentation, and all improvements and derivative works of any of the foregoing. No rights are granted to you except for the limited license expressly stated in Section 4.

Feedback

If you provide us with suggestions, comments, bug reports, feature requests, or other input about the Platform ("Feedback"), you irrevocably assign all right, title, and interest in and to the Feedback to NorthRidge, and we may use it for any purpose without restriction or compensation to you.

We will use commercially reasonable efforts to make the Platform available, but we do not guarantee that the Platform will be uninterrupted or error-free. Scheduled maintenance, emergency maintenance, third-party outages, force majeure events, and security incidents may cause interruptions. Unless we have signed a separate written service level agreement with you, no uptime commitment, response time, or service credit applies.

We may modify, add, or remove features of the Platform at any time. We will provide reasonable notice of material changes that materially reduce the functionality available to paying subscribers during a current paid term.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS. NORTHRIDGE AND ITS LICENSORS DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, AND ANY WARRANTY ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE PLATFORM WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED, OR THAT ANY AI OUTPUT WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, OR FIT FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL NORTHRIDGE OR ITS LICENSORS BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUE, LOST DATA, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR COST OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE PLATFORM, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THE TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF NORTHRIDGE AND ITS LICENSORS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE FEES PAID BY YOU TO NORTHRIDGE FOR THE PLATFORM IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100.00). THESE LIMITATIONS APPLY EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless NorthRidge, its affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claim, demand, loss, damage, liability, cost, or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to: (a) your or any authorized user's violation of this Agreement, the Acceptable Use Policy, or any applicable law; (b) the Customer Data or your use of any AI output; (c) your work, services, proposals, or communications delivered to your customers; or (d) any claim by an employee, contractor, or customer of yours related to your use of the Platform. We will give you prompt notice of the claim, reasonable cooperation at your expense, and the right to control the defense and settlement (provided that no settlement may impose any non-monetary obligation on us without our prior written consent).

This Agreement begins when you first access or create an account on the Platform and continues until terminated as provided below. Either party may terminate this Agreement: (a) for convenience, by canceling the subscription and ceasing use of the Platform; or (b) immediately for the other party's material breach not cured within thirty (30) days after written notice. We may suspend or terminate access immediately and without notice if we reasonably believe continued access poses a security, legal, or operational risk, or if your account is materially past due.

Effect of Termination

• Your license to access and use the Platform ends.
• You will cease all use of the Platform and delete any locally stored Confidential Information of NorthRidge.
• You may export your Customer Data for sixty (60) days after termination by request to Support@northridgesystem.com.
• After the export period ends, we may delete or anonymize your Customer Data, subject to our retention obligations described in the Privacy Policy.
• Sections 5, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, and 18 survive termination.

• Third-Party Beneficiary: You acknowledge and agree that Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement, and that, upon your acceptance of this Agreement, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce this Agreement against you as a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement.

Before filing any claim, you agree to contact us at Support@northridgesystem.com and attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute informally for at least thirty (30) days.

Binding Arbitration

Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Platform that is not resolved informally will be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules. Arbitration will take place in Fayette County, Pennsylvania, in the English language. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Either party may bring an action in any court of competent jurisdiction for injunctive or other equitable relief to protect its intellectual property rights or confidential information without first proceeding to arbitration.

Venue for Court Actions

For any action that is not subject to arbitration (including injunctive or equitable relief), the exclusive venue is the state or federal courts located in Fayette County, Pennsylvania, and each party consents to personal jurisdiction there.

We may update this Agreement from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date and notify you by email and by an in-app notice at least fourteen (14) days before the changes take effect. If you do not agree to the revised Agreement, you must stop using the Platform before the effective date. Your continued use of the Platform after the effective date is your acceptance of the revised Agreement.

Entire Agreement

This Agreement, together with the Privacy Policy, the Acceptable Use Policy, and any order form or signed addendum, is the entire agreement between you and NorthRidge regarding the Platform and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements, proposals, and communications.

Assignment

You may not assign or transfer this Agreement, in whole or in part, without our prior written consent. We may assign this Agreement freely, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets.

Independent Parties

The parties are independent contractors. This Agreement does not create any partnership, joint venture, agency, fiduciary, or employment relationship.

Force Majeure

Neither party is liable for any failure or delay in performance caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disasters, war, terrorism, civil unrest, labor disputes, internet or utility outages, third-party service failures, or government actions.

Notices

Notices to NorthRidge must be sent to Support@northridgesystem.com. We may give you notice by email to your registered email address, by an in-app message, or by posting on the Platform.

Severability and Waiver

If any provision of this Agreement is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full effect, and the unenforceable provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to be enforceable. No waiver is effective unless in writing, and no waiver of one breach is a waiver of any other.

Export Compliance

You represent that you and your authorized users are not located in, under the control of, or a national or resident of any country subject to U.S. Government embargo or designated as a "terrorist supporting" country, and are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
