Welcome to the Terms of Service (these “Terms”) for the following websites: beside.com, interfaceai.com, hearthands.tech and hellom1.com(the “Websites”), and the related mobile and desktop applications such as Beside, Beside macOS, Beside Android, Beside Windows and Beside Phone Assistant (the “Apps”) operated by or on behalf of Interface, Inc. (“Company”, “we” or “us”). The Website and any content, tools, features and functionality offered on or through our Websites and the Apps are collectively referred to as the “Services”.

These Terms govern your access to and use of the Services. However, if you or another organization that has procured for you the right to use the Services under the organization's account (such as your employer) have entered into a separate Master Services Agreement or similar business customer agreement (“Master Services Agreement”) with the Company for your use of the Services, then such Master Services Agreement will also govern your access to and use of the Services and will override and supersede any conflicting provisions in these Terms. Please read these Terms carefully, as they include important information about your legal rights. By accessing and/or using the Services, you are agreeing to these Terms. If you do not understand or agree to these Terms, please do not use the Services.

For purposes of these Terms, “you” and “your” means you as the user of the Services. If you use the Services on behalf of a company or other entity then “you” includes you and that entity, and you represent and warrant that (a) you are an authorized representative of the entity with the authority to bind the entity to these Terms, (b) such entity is responsible for any breach of these Terms by any of its representatives and (c) you agree to these Terms on the entity's behalf.

BY AGREEING TO THESE TERMS, YOU AGREE (A) TO RESOLVE ALL DISPUTES (WITH LIMITED EXCEPTION) RELATED TO THE COMPANY'S SERVICES AND/OR PRODUCTS THROUGH BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION, WHICH MEANS THAT YOU WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO HAVE THOSE DISPUTES DECIDED BY A JUDGE OR JURY, AND (B) TO WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN CLASS ACTIONS, CLASS ARBITRATIONS, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTIONS, AS SET FORTH BELOW.

Consent Requirements

You must obtain consent prior to communicating with any person who is not a user of the Apps (“Recipient”). You represent and warrant that you will (i) inform all Recipients that the calls or text messages may be recorded and transcribed by us or our service providers for the provision of the Services in compliance with applicable laws and regulations, including but not limited to the federal Electronic Communications Privacy Act and similar state-level laws related to wiretapping, interception of electronic communications, and the tracking and monitoring of online activity, (ii) obtain consent from all Recipients prior to engaging in any form of communication, in compliance with applicable laws and regulations, including but not limited to the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (“TCPA”), the Telemarketing Sales Rule (“TSR”) and similar state-level restrictions on calling, text, and telephone solicitation practices, and (iii) implement the opt-in and opt-out requirements described below to ensure compliance. We do not provide built-in opt-in or opt-out mechanisms. Your failure to comply with these requirements may result in the termination of the Services and potential legal action. We are not liable for any non-compliant calls or text messages, and you acknowledge that you are solely responsible for ensuring that all communications adhere to applicable regulations.

  1. Opt-In Requirements. You must ensure that Recipients have provided prior express written consent to receive text messages. The consent must be clear and affirmative (e.g., signing up through a form, sending a keyword such as “YES” via text, or verbally agreeing). You should keep records of such consents as they may be required for legal verification.
  2. Opt-Out Requirements. You must provide Recipients with a clear and easy way to opt out of receiving future messages. This should include offering a simple keyword such as “STOP,” “UNSUBSCRIBE,” or “CANCEL” that Recipients can send in response to any message to immediately cease future communication. Upon receiving such a request, you must stop sending messages to that number within a reasonable time frame. Additionally, you must honor any request to opt out of receiving future messages that is made through any reasonable manner, including through the receipt of any of the following words “STOP,” “QUIT,” “END,” “REVOKE,” “OPT-OUT,” “CANCEL” or “UNSUBSCRIBE.” You must honor any request to opt out of receiving future messages as soon as practicable but no later than ten (10) business days after receiving the request.
  3. Confirmation Messages. After a Recipient opts out by sending a keyword such as “STOP,” you must send a confirmation message acknowledging that the recipient has been unsubscribed and will no longer receive messages unless they opt back in.
  4. Opt-In After Opt-Out. If a Recipient chooses to opt back in, you must ensure that they have obtained a new consent prior to resuming communication. This can be done by offering the recipient an option to reply with a keyword such as “START” or “YES” to resume receiving messages.
