1. Our Services
Our platform empowers both businesses and individuals to design and implement automated chat workflows, which can be utilized across various messaging services, social media channels, and other third-party platforms.
When you purchase or utilize our Services, you are engaging with AchieveApex, and such transactions are governed by this Agreement. In cases where a separate agreement or order form has been established with us for the purchase or use of our Services, that specific agreement or order form will take precedence in the event of any discrepancies with this Agreement.
2. Account, Password, Security, and Phone Use
To access and use the Services, you must register with AchieveApex and create an account (an "Account"). During registration, you will be asked to provide certain information, such as your name, phone number, and email address, which may be linked to services like Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp, or Telegram. By using the Services, you agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during the registration process and to keep your Account information updated. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for all activities that occur under your Account. If you suspect any unauthorized use of your Account, you must notify AchieveApex immediately.
The individual who registers for the Services will be the primary account holder ("Account Representative") and will have the authority to use the Account. If you are registering on behalf of your employer, your employer will be the Account Representative. As the Account Representative, you are responsible for complying with these Terms of Service. Your Account is non-transferable. If you are an Agency using our Services on behalf of a Business Owner, please refer to Section 3 below.
By providing your phone number and email address, you consent to AchieveApex using them to contact you for purposes related to the Services, including performance improvements, service updates, and reminders. These communications may include calls, texts, and emails, and may involve push notifications. AchieveApex will not charge you for these communications, but standard message and data rates from your carrier may apply. You can opt-out of receiving these communications by updating your Account settings or contacting AchieveApex support.
3. Agencies and Business Owners
A "Business Owner" refers to any individual or entity utilizing AchieveApex's Services to promote, support, develop, or commercialize their business, services, or products. An "Agency" is a service provider engaged by a Business Owner to create and/or manage an AchieveApex account and use the Services on behalf of the Business Owner. It is not mandatory for a Business Owner to employ an Agency to use the Services.
Despite the provisions in Section 2, if you are an Agency using our Services to assist a Business Owner, you must (i) accurately designate the Business Owner as an administrator on the Account and, if applicable, on relevant platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, Telegram, and others, and (ii) confirm that you are authorized to use the Services and the Account on behalf of the Business Owner.
The Business Owner will be the sole and exclusive account representative for any Account created by an Agency on their behalf. However, the Agency will retain its rights and interests in all designs, templates, flows, sequences, or other intellectual property related to the chatbot automation work product created for the Business Owner (referred to as "Agency Content").
If the relationship between a Business Owner and their Agency ends, the Business Owner must promptly inform AchieveApex of the termination.
After an Account is transferred from an Agency to the Business Owner, the Business Owner will be solely responsible for any subscription plans and/or fees associated with the Account.
4. User Generated Content
"User Generated Content" refers to any content, information, or materials, whether textual, audio, or visual, that you or any Conversation Participant provide, submit, upload, publish, or otherwise make available through the Services. You are solely responsible for your own and your Conversation Participants' User Generated Content, and we act merely as a passive conduit for your online distribution and publication of such content. You acknowledge and agree that AchieveApex:
- Does not participate in the creation or development of User Generated Content.
- Disclaims any responsibility for User Generated Content.
- Cannot be held liable for claims arising from or related to User Generated Content.

You hereby represent and warrant to AchieveApex that your User Generated Content (i) will not be false, inaccurate, incomplete, or misleading; (ii) will not infringe on any third party's copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret, or other proprietary right or rights of publicity, personality, or privacy; (iii) will not violate any law, statute, ordinance, or regulation (including without limitation those governing export control, consumer protection, unfair competition, anti-discrimination, false advertising, anti-spam, or privacy); (iv) will not be defamatory, libelous, unlawfully threatening, or unlawfully harassing; (v) will not be obscene or contain pornography (including but not limited to child pornography) or be harmful to minors; (vi) will not contain any viruses, Trojan Horses, worms, time bombs, cancelbots, or other computer programming routines that are intended to damage, detrimentally interfere with, surreptitiously intercept, or expropriate any system, data, or personal information; (vii) will not misrepresent your affiliation with AchieveApex or purport that you are authorized to act as a representative or agent of AchieveApex; and (viii) will not create liability for AchieveApex or cause AchieveApex to lose (in whole or in part) the services of its ISPs or other suppliers.
By making available any User Generated Content through the Services, you hereby grant AchieveApex permission to use, process, or disclose such content on, through, or by means of the Services, for the purposes of providing the Services to you, modifying, improving, and operating the Services, and/or as otherwise permitted by this Agreement. We do not claim any ownership rights in any such User Generated Content, and nothing in this Agreement will be deemed to restrict any rights that you may have to use and exploit any such content.

AchieveApex will not be liable for ensuring your activities meet legal requirements or for any violations of law, rule, or regulation. However, AchieveApex is committed to supporting the compliance of its customers by having you agree to these Terms of Service.
You understand that it is generally a violation of federal law, including the TCPA, to contact a consumer by phone, text, or email without prior express written consent. AchieveApex is not responsible for ensuring that you do not transmit messages to consumers in violation of consent rules.
You acknowledge that it is generally a violation of Canadian federal law, including CASL, to contact a consumer by text message, phone, electronic messaging, or email without prior express written consent.

You will provide proof of such consents, the messages you have sent, and your implementation of unsubscribe requests upon our request. Your messages must include all content required under applicable laws, such as your name, mailing address, email, telephone or web address, and the ability to unsubscribe. You will not send messages to any individual who has opted out or withdrawn their consent. You are solely responsible for the content of your messages and their compliance with all applicable laws. AchieveApex acts solely as a service provider to facilitate the sending of your messages, but you control the message content and destination and must ensure compliance with all applicable laws.
AchieveApex is not responsible for ensuring that you do not transmit messages to consumers in violation of consent rules.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless AchieveApex, along with its owners, members, directors, officers, agents, employees, contractors, consultants, and vendors from and against any and all claims, suits, fines, costs, expenses, judgments, and fees, including reasonable attorney's fees, court costs, and expenses, arising out of a claim alleging any violation by you of the law, or alleging facts that would constitute a breach of your warranties or obligations contained in these Terms of Service, including this CIT. You will promptly indemnify, defend, or settle any such third-party claim, demand, lawsuit, investigation, or proceeding brought against AchieveApex. AchieveApex will:
- notify you promptly about any such claim;
- offer reasonable information, support, and cooperation to help you defend the lawsuit or proceeding; and
