Terms & Conditions

The following TERMS & CONDITIONS (“Terms & Conditions”) are a legal and binding agreement between you and PerkCity, Inc., a Delaware corporation d/b/a Nectar HR (“Company,” “we,” “our”, or “us”), governing (A) your online use of our websites, including http://www.perknow.com and http://www.nectarhr.com, and our mobile or stand-alone applications (collectively, our “Online Platforms”) and (B) your general access to and use of our peer-to-peer employee recognition and other award-based services available through the Online Platforms (our “Employee Recognition Services”) if you or your organization have not executed a separate MSA with us. By accessing or using our Online Platforms or Employee Recognition Services, you accept and agree to be bound by these Terms & Conditions, including the Privacy Policy linked below, and affirm that you are of legal age and capacity to enter into a binding agreement with the Company.

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS & CONDITIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU ACCESS OUR ONLINE PLATFORMS, REVIEW OUR EMPLOYEE RECOGNITION SERVICES, OR PURCHASE, TEST, OR USE OUR EMPLOYEE RECOGNITION SERVICES ONLINE OUTSIDE OF A FORMAL MSA RELATIONSHIP WITH US. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THESE TERMS & CONDITIONS, DO NOT ACCESS OUR ONLINE PLATFORMS.

IF YOU OR YOUR ORGANIZATION HAVE ALREADY EXECUTED A SEPARATE MSA WITH US, THE PROVISIONS OF THAT MSA WILL GOVERN YOU RELATIONSHIP WITH THE COMPANY AND ACCESS RIGHTS TO THE EMPLOYEE RECOGNITION SERVICES. PLEASE SPEAK WITH YOUR ADMINISTRATIVE TEAM TO RECEIVE A COPY OF, OR BETTER UNDERSTAND THE RIGHTS AND PROVISIONS IN, ANY SUCH MSA.

1. ABOUT OUR ONLINE PLATFORMS.

We offer our Online Platforms and Employee Recognition Services to help clients (and their staff) create a culture of recognition, meaningful engagement and rewards, and measurable promotion of core values. In furtherance of these goals, our Online Platforms create an interactive, rewards-based system for offering and redeeming awards by employees and staff. If you are visiting our Online Platforms as an employee or on behalf of an organization that has purchased access to the Employee Recognition Services for your use, your rights and access are generally governed by a separate master services agreement executed between your organization and the Company (each, an “MSA”). That said, if you or your organization have not yet formally subscribed to our Employee Recognition Services or executed a separate MSA with the Company, these Terms & Conditions govern your use of the Employee Recognition Services and your relationship with us—both to protect our rights and explain your options with respect to the Online Platforms.

2. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS & CONDITIONS.

We may revise and update these Terms & Conditions from time to time in our sole discretion. All changes are effective immediately when we post them to our Online Platforms, and the changes apply to all uses of the Online Platforms and general requests for Employee Recognition Services made by our customers thereafter. However, any changes or modifications to these Terms & Conditions will not apply retroactively. In addition, changes to these Terms & Conditions will not impact the binding effect of our separate MSA or services agreements with you or any other client, given that these Terms & Conditions are intended to more generally govern access to the Online Platforms (not stand-alone subscriptions or orders under an MSA).

3. ACCESS, ACCOUNT SECURITY & PRIVACY.

3.1 Right of Access. Our Online Platforms are being made available for your personal use only for browsing, considering our Employee Recognition Services, and communicating with us. Subject to these Terms & Conditions, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, nontransferable, and revocable right of access or license, as applicable, to: (A) download, install, and use the Online Platforms or related applications for your personal use on any mobile device or computer owned or otherwise controlled by you; and (B) test, access, review, and use for your personal use on your mobile device or computer the content, features, functionality, and Employee Recognition Services hosted on our Online Platforms (collectively, the “Right of Access”). The grant of the Right of Access under this Section, however, does not supersede or amend any binding terms between us and you (or your organization) in a separate MSA.

3.2 Availability and Access. From time to time, at our discretion, we may restrict your access to certain portions of the Online Platforms, revoking the Right of Access described in Section 3.1 above. We reserve the right to withdraw or amend any of the offers, Employee Recognition Service details and descriptions, and other material we provide to you on our Online Platforms, at our sole discretion and without notice (subject only to the terms of any stand-alone MSA or binding agreement with you or your applicable organization). We will not be liable to you if for any reason all or any portion of the Online Platforms is unavailable at any time or for any period.

3.3 Modification. The Company reserves the right, at any time, to modify, suspend, or discontinue any Employee Recognition Services (in whole or in part) or the Right of Access with or without notice to you. You agree that Company will not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuation of the Employee Recognition Services or the Right of Access, or any parts thereof. The Company shall use reasonable efforts to notify you of all modifications, suspensions, and updates to the Employee Recognition Services and these Terms & Conditions.

3.4 Account Responsibilities and Security. If you choose to create an online account with the Company as part of your online requests for Employee Recognition Services or general use of the Online Platforms (outside of an MSA relationship), you are solely responsible for retaining all login information and account names. You acknowledge that your account is personal to you, and you agree not to provide any other person with access to portions of your account containing your username, password, or other security information. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized access to or use of your username or password, or any other breach of security. Please exercise caution when accessing your account from a public or shared computer so that others are not able to view or record your secure information.

We have the right to disable any username, password, or other identifier at any time, at our sole discretion for any or no reason, including if you have violated any provision of these Terms & Conditions.

3.5 Privacy. Your privacy and the protection of the information you may submit through the Online Platforms are important to the Company. To access our Employee Recognition Services or register an account with us, you may be asked to provide registration details (for example, you or your entity’s email address, formal legal name, and phone number) or other identifying information. A condition of your use of the Online Platforms is that all the information you provide to us or through the Online Platforms is correct, current, and complete. If you are a natural person visiting the Online Platforms, all information you provide to register with or use our Online Platforms is governed by our “Privacy Policy” (available at https://nectarhr.com/privacy-policy/).
