Acceptance of the Terms of Use
Thank you for using the services provided by Sococo, Inc.. These terms of service (the “Terms“) govern your access to and use of Sococo (“we” or “our” or “Sococo”) websites and services (the “Services“), including any content, functionality, and services offered, so please carefully read them before using the Services. By using the Services, you accept to be bound and abide by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, found here, and incorporated herein by reference. If you do not agree to these Terms or the Privacy Policy, you must not access or use the Services.
The Services are not intended for use by you if you are under 13 years of age. By agreeing to these Terms, you are representing to us that you are 13 years of age or older.
Changes to the Terms
You may use the Services only in compliance with these Terms. We may revise and update these Terms from time to time in our sole discretion. All changes are effective immediately when we post them, and apply to all access to and use of the Website thereafter.
Your continued use of the Services following the posting of revised Terms means that you accept and agree to the changes. You are expected to check these Terms from time to time so you are aware of any changes, as they bind you for as long as you use the Services.
Changes to the Services
The Services may continue to change over time as we refine and add more features. We may stop, suspend, or modify the Services at any time without prior notice to you. We may also remove any of our content from the Services at our discretion.
Accessing the Website
When registering as a user, you must provide accurate and complete information about yourself, including a verified email address, and promptly update this information if it changes or is no longer current, accurate and complete. A user is a “Registered User” upon completion of the registration process and verification by Sococo of the same. A Registered User who logs into or enters a Sococo Space is referred to as an “Active User.” If you are registering for an account as the account administrator on behalf of your company or organization, you may also create accounts for other users and invite those users to activate these accounts. Upon activation, such users shall be Registered Users of the Services. All Registered Users must also agree to be bound by these Terms before activating their accounts. You may not register for an account if your right to use the Services was previously terminated by Sococo.
Sococo has no obligation to monitor your communications through the Services. We are not responsible for the accuracy, completeness, appropriateness, or legality of files, communications, or any other information you may be able to access or distribute using the Services.
If your contact information, or other information related to your account, changes, please notify us promptly and keep your information current.
We have the right to disable any user name, password, or other identifier, whether chosen by you or provided by us, at any time in our sole discretion, including if, in our opinion, you have violated any provision of these Terms.
Account Security
You are responsible for safeguarding your account information and the password that you use to access the Services and you agree not to disclose your password to any third party.

You should immediately notify Sococo of any unauthorized use of your account. You acknowledge that the signup and registration portions of the Service use a secure encrypted connection.
