Who can use Clearstream

Clearstream is a web-based text messaging application for churches, non-profits, education and government organizations. 

Clearstream does not allow or permit promotional, advertising, or marketing content/programs on its text messaging platform.

Terms of Use

This page outlines the terms under which Clearstream, LLC (“we” or “us”) provides you with our website, clearstream.io (the “Site”), and our Clearstream text messaging software platform (the “Platform”).  These terms of service (“Terms of Service”) govern all use of the Platform, the Site, and all content, services and products available at, or through, the Site and Platform (collectively the foregoing are referred to as the “Services”). 

Please read this page carefully. By using the Services, “you” (whether you are a Customer, Organization Administrator, Authorized User or Individual) are indicating your acceptance to be bound by these Terms of Service. In other words, these Terms of Service are a binding contract between you and us. If you are unwilling to be bound to these Terms of Service, please do not use the Services. In addition, by entering into these Terms of Service, you further acknowledge your understanding and acceptance of our Privacy Policy, available at https://clearstream.io/privacy-policy/

These Terms of Service are subject to change. We may, in our sole discretion, revise the Terms of Service at any time by updating this page. You should visit this page periodically to review the Terms of Service, as it is binding upon you.

Please be advised that this Agreement contains provisions that govern how disputes between us are resolved, including arbitration, a jury trial waiver and a class action waiver.

1. The Services 

We are happy to provide you with the Services, which include the Clearstream web-based software and mobile app. The Services allow organizations to communicate with their members, visitors, staff, and volunteers via text message (so long as the recipients have provided their consent to receive text messages). As always, message and data rates may apply for any messages sent/received through the Services. Message frequency varies. If you have any questions about your own text or data plan, please contact your wireless provider.

Please note that you use the Services at your own risk. We do not warrant that the Services will be error-free, generate a desired result, or increase productivity. 

2. Users of the Services

There are four categories of users: Customers, Organization Administrators, Authorized Users and Individuals. Each type of user has different permissions and responsibilities, which are more fully defined below. Note we use the term “you” in these Terms of Service to refer to the user of the Services (whether you are a Customer, Organization Administrator, Authorized User, or Individual).

Customers

The organization (e.g., the Church or the non-profit entity) is our customer (the “Customer”). An individual who has the full authority to enter into binding contracts and conduct business on behalf of the Customer (the “Account Owner”) must be the person who creates the Clearstream account on Customer’s behalf (the “Account”). We may require the Account Owner to provide proof of authority to enter into contracts on behalf of the Customer, and we reserve the right to suspend the Customer’s access to the Services until such proof is provided. However, we specifically disclaim all liability for an Account that was opened by an individual who had no authority to do so on Customer’s behalf.

By creating an Account, Customer represents and warrants that the Account Owner has full authority to create the Account; that all registration information that the Account Owner submits is truthful and accurate; and that Customer will maintain the accuracy of such information. If any of the Account information changes, the Account must be immediately updated with the current information. Information related to the Account can be changed or updated by logging into your Account and clicking on Settings. You can also contact us with questions on how to update or change your information by email at help@getclearstream.com.

Organization Administrators

The Account Owner has full access to manage the Account and use the Services. The Account Owner may also designate others to have full access to manage the Account and use the Services. These users and the Account Owner are collectively referred to herein as “Organization Administrators.” All Organization Administrators must have full authority to enter into binding contracts and conduct business on behalf of Customer. We may require the Organization Administrators to provide proof that they have the authority to enter into contracts on behalf of the Customer. However, we specifically disclaim all liability for the actions of Organization Administrators who had no authority to act on Customer’s behalf.

Organization Administrators may be added or deleted by another Organization Administrator. In the event an Organization Administrator is deleted, the Organization Administrator shall cease to have access to the Services, the Account, and any information contained therein. In addition, an Organization Administrator, acting on behalf of the Customer, may delete the Account and therefore all data and information related to the Customer’s Account. Organization Administrators, acting on behalf of the Customer, may also change information in the Account (such as signing up for a different payment plan or adding/removing features). However, Organization Administrator’s shall not take any action or inaction that is disparaging to the Customer or contrary to the Customer’s mission or instructions. We are not liable for the conduct of a Customer or Organization Administrator, including, without limitation, deletion of data, improper use of data, inappropriate information posted, violation of laws related to privacy, or any other conduct by a Customer or Organization Administrator.

In the event of a conflict among Organization Administrators or between Organization Administrators and the Customer, the Customer must resolve the issue and provide us with written instructions on how to proceed that are signed by the Chief Executive of the organization. We will proceed based on those instructions. In the event of a conflict over the identity of the Chief Executive, we will act in accordance to a court order that names the Chief Executive. If a dispute requires us to engage counsel, the Customer agrees to pay our fees and costs. We may suspend the Services and/or Account until said conflict is resolved.

Authorized Users

“Authorized Users” are users who are granted permission to access the Services by an Organization Administrator. However, Authorized Users will not have access to the same administrative features as Organization Administrators. For example, Authorized Users may create and send messages and reply to Individuals through the account Inbox. However, Authorized Users do not have the ability to edit account billing and payment information. Authorized Users acknowledge and agree that an Organization Administrator or another Authorized User may (a) remove their access to the Services; (b) delete or change any information that such user has entered into the Services; or (c) delete the entire Account, which would result in the deletion of all data from Authorized Users.

Authorized Users shall not take any action or inaction that: interferes with the Customer’s ability to use the Services, is disparaging to the Customer, or is contrary to the Customer’s mission and/or instructions.

Individuals

“Individuals” are those who receive messages from the Customer through the Services who (a) have a connection with the Customer (e.g., a member of the congregation, a visitor of the church, or a staff member) and (b) have given their explicit written consent to the Customer to receive text messages from the Customer. The Customer must ensure that individuals HAVE GIVEN THEIR EXPLICIT WRITTEN CONSENT TO THE CUSTOMER TO RECEIVE TEXT MESSAGES AND AGREE TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE. Customer will indemnify and hold us harmless from any claim or dispute arising out of the failure to obtain the individual’s consent to receive messages through the Services.

Individuals acknowledge and agree that the Customer and its agents can view, access and use the information and data that Individuals have sent through the Services. For example, Individuals understand and agree that any text messages they send through the Services may be stored, viewed, and accessed by the Customer. Individuals also acknowledge and agree that text messages sent to Customer may elicit replies from Customer or Customer’s representatives.

3. Responsibilities of Customers, Organization Administrators, Authorized Users, and Individuals

Responsibilities of the Customer

The Customer shall ensure that Customer and all Organization Administrators, Authorized Users and Individuals comply with these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. The Customer further represents and warrants that it is responsible for itself as well as the conduct of Organization Administrators, Authorized Users and Individuals. The Customer agrees to hold us harmless for the conduct of Customer, the Organization Administrators, the Authorized Users and the Individuals per Section 17 (Indemnification). The Customer shall cooperate with us in ensuring that they, Organization Administrators, Authorized Users and Individuals comply with these Terms of Service.

The Services allow the Customer, Organization Administrators, Authorized Users and Individuals to enter, send and receive content and data (“Customer Data”). Customer Data may include or incorporate information related to third party individuals – for example, the names and telephone numbers of others (“Third-Party Information”).

Customer further understands and agrees that it shall bear all responsibility for the Customer Data and Third-Party Information, and Customer shall be responsible for resolving all disputes involving the Customer Data and Third-Party Information.

In the event that we are contacted by a person who has a dispute related to the Customer Data or Third-Party Information, we will notify Customer within 45 days. We have the right to suspend or terminate the Customer’s Account until the Customer and said person resolve their dispute. The Customer represents and warrants that it will hold us harmless from all claims and/or disputes related to the Customer Data and Third-Party Information, as more fully described in Section 17 (Indemnification).

To be clear, Customer is responsible for complying with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, and represents and warrants that it and its Organization Administrators, Authorized Users and Individuals will not use the Services in a manner that violates the laws, rules and regulations in the applicable jurisdiction.

YOU MAY NOT SEND ANY MESSAGE TO A RECIPIENT WHO HAS NOT GIVEN, THROUGH WRITTEN OR ELECTRONIC OR DIGITAL CONSENT, HIS/HER/THEIR CONSENT TO RECEIVE SUCH MESSAGES. WHEN A CUSTOMER OPTS OUT OF RECEIVING ANY FURTHER MESSAGES, CLEARSTREAM WILL AUTOMATICALLY REMOVE THE OPTED-OUT CUSTOMER FROM YOUR ACCOUNT.

Responsibilities of the Organization Administrator

For any upgrade or downgrade in plan level, the credit card you provided will automatically be charged the new rate on your next billing cycle. Downgrading your Services may cause the loss of content, information, features, or capacity of your Account. We shall not be liable for any such loss.

  • Free Plan and Free Trials 

We currently offer a Free Plan for the Services. We will not charge for you for this plan, unless you upgrade the Free Plan to one of the paid plans. 

We may offer free trials for the Services. Your payment method will be automatically charged the corresponding fee for the Services after the free trial ends. If you do not wish to be charged for the Services, please make sure to cancel your free trial before the last day of the free trial.

18. Arbitration, Jury Trial Waiver, Class Action Waiver and Right to Opt Out

a. Mandatory Arbitration

Please read this Section carefully. It is part of your agreement with us, and it affects your rights. It contains procedures for MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION.

You agree that any dispute related to these Terms of Service, your use of the Services, or any dispute related to your relationship with us or our affiliates, directors, officers, agents, shareholders, members, subsidiaries, parents, shall be submitted to binding arbitration under the rules of the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (JAMS), located in Pensacola, Florida. The JAMS Rules of Arbitration shall govern all aspects of the arbitration you bring, including but not limited to the method of initiating and/or demanding arbitration, except to the extent such rules are in conflict with this Arbitration Agreement. The JAMS Rules of Arbitration are available on JAM’s website, https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-comprehensive-arbitration/. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator, with the prevailing party to pay all costs and attorney fees. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

b. Jury Trial Waiver

Please read this Section carefully. It is part of your agreement with us and affects your rights. It contains a WAIVER OF YOUR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.

You hereby waive your constitutional and statutory rights to go to court and have a trial in front of a judge or a jury, instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient and less costly than rules applicable in court and are subject to very limited review by a court. In the event any litigation should arise between you and us in any state or federal court in a suit to vacate or enforce an arbitration award or otherwise, YOU WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, instead electing that the dispute be resolved by a judge.

c. Class Action Waiver

Please read this Section carefully. It is part of your agreement with us and affects your rights. It contains a WAIVER OF YOUR CLASS ACTION RIGHTS.

ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND US MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. 

d. 30-Day Right to Opt-Out of Arbitration, Jury Trial Waiver & Class Action Waiver 

You have the right to opt out of the Arbitration, Jury Trial Waiver and Class Action Waiver Provisions of this Agreement by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to help@getclearstream.com (with the subject line: Opt-Out of Arbitration, Jury Trial Waiver and Class Action Waiver Provisions) within 30 days from the date you either (a) first begin use of the Services, or (b) create an Account, whichever is applicable and earlier. If you send this notice, then the Arbitration, Jury Trial Waiver and Class Action Waiver Provisions will not apply you must bring claims per the Section labeled “Governing Law,” below. If you do not send this notice, then you agree to be bound by the terms of the Arbitration, Jury Trial Waiver and Class Action Waiver Provisions in this Section. Agreeing to arbitration and waiving your rights to jury trial and class action participation is an important decision for you to make. It can shorten the litigation process and result in cost savings, but it also takes away certain rights, such as the right to a trial in front of your peers. Thus, please take time to carefully consider the Arbitration, Jury Trial Waiver and Class Action Waiver Provisions of this Agreement. Since the information provided in this Agreement is not intended to contain a complete explanation of the consequences of arbitration, class action or jury waiver, you may want to consult an attorney.

Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms of Service shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

e. Entire agreement

These terms constitute our entire binding Terms of Service, and supersede any and all prior understanding, statements or representations, whether electronic, oral or written, regarding the Services.
