OPUG Program Agreement
Partners
Thank you for your interest in becoming a Remote Home Check User Group (OPUG) Leader. Being a OPUG Leader is a rewarding and sometimes demanding experience. To ensure that we continue to provide a world-class experience to all of our passionate OPUG attendees, we ask that you take the time to understand what will be expected of you as your city’s leader. That’s where this OPUG Program Agreement comes in.
The OPUG Program Agreement contains the terms and conditions that you must agree to and abide by in order to be a OPUG Leader. It is a legal document so some of the language is necessarily “legalese” but we have tried to make it as readable as possible. These terms are so important that we cannot have you participate as a OPUG Leader unless you agree to them. By participating as a OPUG Leader, you are agreeing to these terms and also agree to and accept the following: our OPUG Guidelines, our Acceptable Use Policy, and our Business Partner DPA (“Additional Terms”) (collectively with this OPUG Program Agreement, the “Agreement”). If there’s a conflict between the Additional Terms and this OPUG Program Agreement, the OPUG Program Agreement shall control.
We periodically update these terms and you can find the most recent version here.
1. Definitions
“OPUG Guidelines” means the guidelines applicable to OPUG Leaders, as in effect from time to time, which we will publish at https://offers.Remote Home Check.com/OPUG-leader-guidelines or other website we may designate.
“We”, “us” or “our” means Remote Home Check, Inc.
“You” or “your” means the individual (if you are participating as an individual) or company (if you are participating as a company employee) that agrees to these program terms. You understand that if you are participating as a company employee and then leave the company, this Agreement and your position as a OPUG Leader will remain with the company, and may not be transferred to you as an individual without the company’s consent. We may, in our absolute discretion, determine your eligibility for such transfer.
2. Your Participation
As a OPUG Leader, you will be required to meet certain eligibility criteria and requirements that are described in detail in the OPUG Guidelines. In exchange, we will provide the benefits described in the OPUG Guidelines under “Remote Home Check Support.” If you fail to maintain your eligibility criteria, or fail to meet the requirements, we may suspend or terminate your participation. We will review your performance annually as described in the OPUG Guidelines.
Once you are approved to be a OPUG Leader, and while you are a OPUG Leader in good standing you will be given access to a third-party solution selected by us for you to use to promote your OPUG events, collect registrations, perform check-in, and email attendees. You may be required to provide your information to the third-party solution to set up your account (“Account”). You agree that all of your use of your Account is subject to the terms of that third-party’s services. We disclaim all liability and claims for your use of the third-party solution.
You agree that you will only use your Account to manage OPUG data, and will not use any other database or service to manage any OPUG data. You further agree that when using your Account and when conducting any OPUG-related activity you will comply with all applicable privacy laws and regulations. Additionally, you must comply with our GDPR Guidelines located at: http://www.Remote Home Check.com/OPUG-privacy-guidelines

4. Term and Termination
While we endeavor to give you the opportunity to continue to participate in the OPUG program if you meet or exceed expectations, we may choose to discontinue your participation or the OPUG program generally at any time in our discretion by notifying you. We may immediately suspend or discontinue your participation in the OPUG program at any time if you fail to comply with this Agreement or any portion of it, or if we determine that you are acting in a way that has or may negatively reflect on or affect us, our prospects, or our customers.
5. Other Important Legalese
You will indemnify, defend and hold us harmless, at your expense, against any third-party claim, suit, action, or proceeding (each, an “Action”) brought against us (and our officers, directors, employees, agents, service providers, licensors, and affiliates) by a third party not affiliated with us to the extent that such Action is based upon or arises out of your participation as a OPUG Leader. We will: notify you after becoming aware of any such claim; give you sole control of the defense or settlement of such a claim; and provide you (at your expense) with any and all information and assistance reasonably requested by you to handle the defense or settlement of the claim. You shall not accept any settlement that (i) imposes an obligation on us; (ii) requires us to make an admission; or (iii) imposes liability not covered by these indemnifications or places restrictions on us without our prior written consent.
WE AND OUR AFFILIATES AND AGENTS MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES ABOUT THE OPUG PROGRAM OR YOUR PARTICIPATION AS A OPUG LEADER. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL WE BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES. IF, NOTWITHSTANDING THE OTHER TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, WE ARE DETERMINED TO HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY WILL BE LIMITED TO ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS.
We may update and change any part or all of this Agreement at any time without notifying you first.
