WELCOME TO PI LINK

We (PI Link, LLC.) hope you find it useful. By accessing or otherwise interacting with our servers, services, websites, mobile app (“App”), or any associated content/postings (together, “PIL”), you agree to these Terms of Service (“TOS”) (last updated May 22, 2024). You acknowledge and agree that PIL is a private app owned and operated by PI LINK, LLC. If you are accessing or using PIL on behalf of a business, you represent and warrant to PIL that you have the authority to accept the TOS on behalf of that business and that the business agrees to the TOS. If you do not agree to the TOS, you are not authorized to use PIL or download the App. We may modify the TOS at any time in our sole discretion. You are responsible for periodically checking for changes and are bound by them if you continue to use PIL. Our privacy policy (https://pilink.tech/privacy-policy/), and all other policies, site rules, and agreements referenced below or on PIL, are fully incorporated into this TOS, and you agree to them as well.

DISCLAIMER & LIABILITY

To the full extent permitted by law, PI LINK, LLC., and its officers, directors, employees, agents, licensors, affiliates, and successors in interest (“PIL Entities”):

  1. Make no promises, warranties, or representations as to PIL.
  2. Provide PIL on an “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” basis.
  3. Disclaim all warranties, express or implied.
  4. Disclaim any liability for acts, omissions, or conduct of you or any party in connection with PIL.

PIL Entities are NOT liable for any direct, indirect, consequential, incidental, special, punitive, or other losses, and in no event shall such liability exceed $100 or the amount you paid us in the year preceding such loss.

CLAIMS & INDEMNITY

Any claim, cause of action, demand, or dispute arising from or related to PIL (“Claims”) will be governed by the internal laws of Pennsylvania, without regard to conflict of law provisions. Any Claims will be exclusively resolved by courts in Pennsylvania. You agree to:

  1. Submit to the personal jurisdiction of courts in Pennsylvania.
  2. Indemnify and hold PIL Entities harmless from any Claims, losses, liability, or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) that arise from a third party and relate to your use of PIL.

MISCELLANEOUS

Unless you have entered into a separate written or electronic agreement with us that expressly references the TOS, this is the exclusive and entire agreement between us and you. Users complying with prior written licenses may access PIL until authorization is terminated. Our actions or silence do not waive, modify, or limit the TOS or our ability to enforce it. The USE, LIQUIDATED DAMAGES, and CLAIMS & INDEMNITY sections survive termination of the TOS. If a TOS term is unenforceable, it shall be limited to the least extent possible and supplemented with a valid provision that best embodies the intent of the parties. The English version of the TOS controls over any translations. If you reasonably believe content infringes your IP rights, contact us at support@pilink.tech.

TERMINATION

You can end your contract by ceasing to use the PI LINK application or website. If you have an existing account and would like us to remove it, please contact us at support@pilink.tech.
