Clari Copilot Terms of Service

Updated July 28, 2023

By using the Services, as defined in an applicable Order Form, whether through a paid subscription or a free trial, you agree to be bound by these terms of service (“Terms”).  These Terms are between you and Strings Systems Inc., a Delaware Corporation with a place of business at 1154 Sonora Court, Sunnyvale, CA 94086, doing business as “Clari Copilot” (“Clari Copilot,” “we,” or “us”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Clari Inc. (“Clari”).  “You” means the entity you represent in accepting these Terms or, if that does not apply, you individually. If you are accepting on behalf of another entity, you represent and warrant that: (i) you have full legal authority to bind such entity to these Terms; (ii) you have read and understand these Terms; and (iii) you agree to these Terms on behalf of the party that you represent.

Your Order Form is created (1) following your purchase of one of our services; or (2) after registering for a free trial and includes any order confirmation or ordering documents, related to the Services sent to you and it will specifically reference these Terms.  It contains all of the relevant details about you and your purchase, including the entity you represent or who you are, your Initial Service Term, a description of the Services purchased, and, if applicable, your Service Fees. The Order Form together with these Terms of Service, the Clari Privacy Policy, the Clari Cookie Policy, and if applicable, a Data Processing Addendum, constitutes “the Agreement.”

If you do not agree to these Terms or to any other portion of the Agreement you must not use the Services or register for a free trial.

Capitalized terms used in these Terms are defined throughout these Terms and the Order Form. The Agreement takes effect when you create a customer account on the Clari website and you click a box indicating acceptance of these Terms, whichever is earlier, and will remain in effect during the relevant subscription term or until terminated as specified in these Terms.

PLEASE REVIEW THESE TERMS, THE ORDER FORM, THE CLARI PRIVACY POLICY, THE CLARI COOKIE POLICY, AND, IF APPLICABLE, THE DATA PROCESSING ADDENDUM. CAREFULLY. ONCE ACCEPTED, THIS AGREEMENT BECOMES A BINDING LEGAL COMMITMENT BETWEEN YOU AND CLARI COPILOT.
