The words of which the initial letter is capitalized have meanings defined under the following conditions. The following definitions shall have the same meaning regardless of whether they appear in singular or in plural.
For the purposes of these Terms and Conditions:
These are the Terms and Conditions governing the use of this Service and the agreement that operates between You and the Company. These Terms and Conditions set out the rights and obligations of all users regarding the use of the Service.
Your access to and use of the Service is conditioned on Your acceptance of and compliance with these Terms and Conditions. These Terms and Conditions apply to all visitors, users and others who access or use the Service.
By accessing or using the Service You agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. If You disagree with any part of these Terms and Conditions then You may not access the Service.
You represent that you are over the age of 18. The Company does not permit those under 18 to use the Service.
Your access to and use of the Service is also conditioned on Your acceptance of and compliance with the Privacy Policy of the Company. Our Privacy Policy describes Our policies and procedures on the collection, use and disclosure of Your personal information when You use the Application or the Website and tells You about Your privacy rights and how the law protects You. Please read Our Privacy Policy carefully before using Our Service.
When You create an account with Us, You must provide Us information that is accurate, complete, and current at all times. Failure to do so constitutes a breach of the Terms, which may result in immediate termination of Your account on Our Service.
You are responsible for safeguarding the password that You use to access the Service and for any activities or actions that occur under Your password.
You agree not to disclose Your password to any third party. You must notify Us immediately upon becoming aware of any breach of security or unauthorized use of Your account.
Our Service allows You to post Content. You are responsible for the Content that You post to the Service, including its legality, reliability, and appropriateness.
By posting Content to the Service, You grant Us the right and license to use, modify, publicly perform, publicly display, reproduce, and distribute such Content on and through the Service. You retain any and all of Your rights to any Content You submit, post or display on or through the Service and You are responsible for protecting those rights.
The Company is not responsible for the content of the Service's users. You expressly understand and agree that You are solely responsible for the Content and for all activity that occurs under your account.
You may not transmit any Content that is unlawful, offensive, upsetting, intended to disgust, threatening, libelous, defamatory, obscene or otherwise objectionable. Examples include, but are not limited to: unlawful activity, defamatory content, spam, viruses, infringing proprietary rights, impersonating others, violating privacy.
Although regular backups of Content are performed, the Company does not guarantee there will be no loss or corruption of data.
You must comply with Our Acceptable Use Policy, which prohibits certain activities and is incorporated into these Terms. Violations may lead to account termination.
There are two money flows. First, Your software subscription is billed to You by Scott Applications LLC. Second, when Your customer pays an invoice or other document, You (the subscriber) are the merchant of record. Customer bank statements show Your business. You own refunds, disputes, and tax on that money. Invoice funds do not settle to Scott Applications LLC. We are not a bank, money transmitter, or escrow.
Platform Provider terms: we may create charges and refunds on Your connected Stripe or PayPal account, read account status and capabilities, and share Connected Account Data and Activity with Stripe as needed to provide the Service. The platform fee on document collection is 0% today. We will disclose any fee before charging one. Scott Applications LLC does not refund a payment your customer made on an invoice. You received that money.
You must comply with Stripe's Services Agreement and PayPal's User Agreement and Acceptable Use Policy. Descriptions of goods and services must be accurate. You must not add a surcharge that violates card-network or processor rules. The Service is United States–only and priced in USD.
If we reasonably believe You are using payments for a prohibited business, we will disable payment rails and may notify the processor. We may disable payment features at any time to comply with processors or this agreement. See the Payments Addendum and Acceptable Use Policy.
Client-facing templates are your words, sent through our mail provider. From stays our verified address. Reply-To is your business email. We are not the merchant on an invoice payment. Unsubscribing from marketing does not stop invoice, estimate, quote, contract, receipt, or statement mail.
Invoice and reminder mail follows CAN-SPAM: Scott Applications LLC, Waco, Texas, is the postal address we publish; the subject matches the document; marketing has its own stop. Transactional mail about a document is not the newsletter. We do not text for Accounting Software, and these terms are not a consent to SMS.
Plan prices are the amount checkout will charge, in US dollars. The card price includes Texas sales tax. We do not add a sales-tax line at checkout. Tax on the software subscription is figured on 80% of the price under the Texas data-processing rule. Scott Applications LLC registers with the Texas Comptroller and files on the assigned schedule. A CPA confirms the first return. Customers outside Texas are a later question. The interval you pick is the interval you are billed. The plan renews until you cancel. You cancel in account settings. Within 14 days of a plan charge, we refund that charge in full. After day 14, we refund the unused days left in that period, counted by the day, and access ends when that refund is sent. If a payment to us fails, Stripe or PayPal retry under their own schedule. This software does not run a separate 21-day grace. A price change applies to a later term, and we tell you before the renewal that uses the new price. Nothing on the checkout page is pre-checked as consent.
There is no standing price lock and no first-500 rate. A trial, a discount, or a rate that lasts for a set time exists only when we turn on a campaign in the admin promotions tool. We can start or end a campaign at any time. Checkout shows the offer that is on. A campaign is not a promise that the price stays locked after the campaign ends.
Sales tax on your customer's invoice is your liability. A sales-tax figure in the product is your worksheet. We do not file that return.
Accounting software output, including a Schedule C grouping and a 1099 candidate list, is not a tax opinion, not a legal opinion, and not an assurance engagement. Card payments on your connected account may be reported by Stripe to the IRS and to you on a 1099-K. We do not file that form. We do not know a gross-up. Do not treat our 1099-NEC candidate list as a substitute for a 1099-K you already received.
You warrant that you have the right to upload client and vendor data. We may suspend payment rails when the Acceptable Use Policy is violated. Acceptable use is the processor-risk policy: no prohibited category, no using us to dodge a Stripe or PayPal ban, and a US business only.
Model output can be wrong. Nothing is posted to the ledger until you save it. Do not upload a card number or a password into an extractor. We send the document you submitted, not the whole company. We do not promise that a model vendor will not retain data under that vendor's terms. A document you submit so we can fill a draft may be sent to Anthropic (their terms) or to xAI (their terms).
A connected assistant is drafted here and is not on the product yet. If it ships, a third-party app you connect acts for you. Scopes are shown before you consent. Revocation in Settings is immediate. We do not audit that assistant's vendor.
Accepting or rejecting a document in the portal, and signing a contract there, is an electronic record. You can keep a copy by downloading the PDF. The signature control on the document should say this as well; this draft says it here first.
We respect the intellectual property rights of others. It is Our policy to respond to any claim that Content posted on the Service infringes a copyright or other intellectual property infringement of any person. See our full IP Infringement Reporting Process.
You may submit a notification pursuant to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) by providing our Copyright Agent with the following information in writing: signature, description of work, location, contact info, statement of good faith, statement under perjury.
The Service and its original content (excluding Content provided by You or other users), features and functionality are and will remain the exclusive property of the Company and its licensors. The Service is protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws of both the United States and foreign countries.
You assign all rights, title and interest in any Feedback You provide the Company. If for any reason such assignment is ineffective, You agree to grant the Company a non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty free, worldwide right and license to use such Feedback without restriction.
Our Service may contain links to third-party web sites or services that are not owned or controlled by the Company. The Company has no control over, and assumes no responsibility for, the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third party web sites or services.
We may terminate or suspend Your Account immediately, without prior notice or liability, for any reason whatsoever, including without limitation if You breach these Terms and Conditions.
Upon termination, Your right to use the Service will cease immediately.
Our liability for the software is limited to the plan fees you paid Scott Applications LLC in the 12 months before the claim. Money your customer paid you on an invoice is not part of that cap, because we do not hold it. We are not liable for indirect or consequential damages. The cap does not apply to fraud or intentional misconduct. Each customer sues only for their own account. There is no class claim. There is no mandatory arbitration.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall the Company or its suppliers be liable for any special, incidental, indirect, or consequential damages whatsoever.
The Service is provided to You "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" and with all faults and defects without warranty of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, the Company expressly disclaims all warranties.
Texas law governs these terms. A lawsuit is brought only in the state courts of McLennan County, Texas, or in federal court in Waco when a case is allowed there. Scott Applications LLC is at 212 Dallas St, Waco, TX 76704.
If You have any concern or dispute about the Service, You agree to first try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting the Company.
If any provision of these Terms is held to be unenforceable or invalid, such provision will be changed and interpreted to accomplish the objectives of such provision to the greatest extent possible.
Except as provided herein, the failure to exercise a right or to require performance of an obligation under these Terms shall not affect a party's ability to exercise such right or require such performance at any time thereafter.
We reserve the right, at Our sole discretion, to modify or replace these Terms at any time. If a revision is material We will make reasonable efforts to provide at least 30 days' notice prior to any new terms taking effect.
By continuing to access or use Our Service after those revisions become effective, You agree to be bound by the revised terms. If You do not agree to the new terms, in whole or in part, please stop using the website and the Service.
The Service currently includes Accounting Software, Job Applications, TalusPro, Truestock, and QuoteForge. Booking is not a product we offer. The Service is United States–only and priced in USD.
SMS and text-to-apply are not sold until we complete A2P 10DLC. Job-board syndication (Indeed XML and Google for Jobs structured data) is available on Professional+ Job Application plans. WOTC is a pre-screen only — we do not file IRS Form 8850 or ETA 9061 for you.
Help articles, tutorials, and in-app documentation are not finished. Until they are, support is a ticket at /support. That form emails us and stores the ticket in our admin inbox.
