Requirements of the HOVER App

The HOVER App is only compatible with those smartphones and operating systems identified and certified by HOVER from time to time. The use of the HOVER App requires and utilizes internet connectivity and data. Carrier and provider rates for data may apply and you are responsible for any such charges. Use of the HOVER App could result in significant data usage.

The functional use of the HOVER App and the production of HOVER Models and other HOVER Deliverables may be dependent on the data related to geographic location and geo-positional data, and you acknowledge and agree that any failure to provide (or make accessible) that data may limit the functionality of the HOVER App and the generation of HOVER Models and other HOVER Deliverables.

The Software and Services are dependent on the accuracy of the images submitted, in the format, number, location, clarity and sequence required by or requested through the HOVER App and the other data and information required by or requested through the HOVER App. User, or applicable Sponsor, acknowledges and agrees that failure to properly provide such images, data and information may limit or prevent the functionality of the HOVER App and the ability of HOVER to deliver HOVER Models or other HOVER Deliverables.

HOVER has no liability for errors, unreliable operation, or other issues resulting from use of the HOVER App or HOVER Deliverables on or in connection with rooted or jail broken devices or use on any mobile device that is not in conformance with the manufacturer’s original specifications, including use of modified versions of the operating system (collectively, “Modified Devices”). Use of the HOVER App or HOVER Deliverables on Modified Devices will be at the User’s, or applicable Sponsor’s, sole and exclusive risk and liability.

3.

Consent to Information Collection and Use

You hereby give HOVER consent to collect data related to you through the HOVER App or applicable Co-branded App. Collected data may include personal information, Image Data, or Property Information. HOVER will manage collected data in accordance with Data Privacy Laws. A full description of the information collected and purposes of the collection is available at hover.to/privacy.

Users in the United States acting on behalf of the resident of a property, such as either as a Sponsored User or Service Provider, must obtain consent of the resident of the applicable Image Data and Property Information prior to collection and submission through the HOVER App.

Users in Europe acting on behalf of European Residents, and unless otherwise specified by the Sponsor, are responsible for and must ensure a lawful basis for processing personal data, as required by Data Privacy Laws, prior to collection and submission through the HOVER app. If the resident is a European Resident, User must ensure compliance with, and be responsible for, applicable Data Privacy Laws. Users’ acceptance of these Terms of Use may be subject to additional measures as established between HOVER and an applicable Sponsor, such as data processing agreements and transfer tool safeguards when appropriate. Users may request these documents at all times.

For interactions between a User and a Sponsor through HOVER, these Terms of Use shall still be applicable and constitute a legal agreement between the User, HOVER and the applicable Sponsor. For example, if you receive a request to use the HOVER App from a Sponsor you have a relationship with, the collection of information through the HOVER App as part of that transaction will be subject to these Terms of Use.

The applicable Sponsor and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms of Use, and have the right (and shall be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms of Use.

Any information provided by a User, as well as any HOVER Deliverables ordered by or provided to a User, may be made available to HOVER as well as the applicable Sponsor, its affiliates and its Service Providers for use in accordance with HOVER’s and the applicable Sponsor’s published privacy policies, unless otherwise stated in any Order Documentation such as:

  • processing and managing your purchase and use of our products and services;
  • verifying your identity and responding to your inquiries or requests;
  • creating and delivering personalized promotions;
  • communicating with you by mail, telephone, facsimile, e-mail, mobile alerts, SMS text messaging or other reasonable means about:
    • HOVER or the applicable Sponsor and its affiliates;
    • products of HOVER or the applicable Sponsor that may be applicable to you;
    • managing permissions for access to HOVER Deliverables already provided to you; and
  • marketing efforts; and
  • furthering HOVER or the applicable Sponsor and its affiliates business and support purposes, such as to perform data analysis, audits, fraud monitoring and prevention, to enhance, improve or modify the services, to identify usage trends, determine the effectiveness of promotional campaigns and to operate and expand business activities.

If at any time you desire for HOVER not to share your information with any Sponsor, Sponsor affiliate, Service Provider or otherwise, you can opt-out by emailing hover atsupport@hover.to.

If you are a Service Provider who has downloaded and/or is using a sponsored app, you also hereby acknowledge and consent to the Sponsor’s ability to access, disclose, restrict, monitor, compile information and generate reports from your use of the sponsored app and the Software and Services.

Miscellaneous

(a) Neither party will incur any liability to the other on account of any loss or damage resulting from any delay or failure to perform all or any part of this Agreement if such delay or failure is caused, in whole or in part, by events, occurrences, or causes beyond its control and without negligence of the parties. Such events, occurrences or causes will include, without limitation, acts of God, strikes, lockouts, riots, acts of war, terrorism, earthquakes, fire and explosions, but the ability to meet financial obligations is expressly excluded.

(b) Any waiver of the provisions of this Agreement or of a party’s rights or remedies under this Agreement must be in writing to be effective. Failure, neglect or delay by a party to enforce the provisions of this Agreement or its rights or remedies at any time will not be construed to be deemed a waiver of such party’s rights and will not in any way affect the validity of the whole or any part of this Agreement or prejudice such party’s right to take subsequent action.

(c) If any term, condition or provision in this Agreement is found to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable to any extent, the parties shall endeavor in good faith to agree to such amendments that will preserve, as far as possible, the intentions expressed in this Agreement. If the parties fail to agree on such an amendment, such invalid term, condition or provision will be severed from the remaining terms, conditions and provisions, which will continue to be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

(d) This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter herein and supersedes all previous communications, proposals representations, understandings and agreements, either oral or written, between the parties with respect to said subject matter. No employee, agent, representative or affiliate of HOVER or Sponsor has authority to bind HOVER or Sponsor, respectively, to any oral representations or warranty concerning any HOVER products or services or additional Sponsor obligations. Any written representation or warranty not expressly contained in this Agreement is unenforceable.

(e) No terms, provisions or conditions of any purchase order, acknowledgement or other business form that Sponsor may use in connection with the acquisition or licensing of the Software and Services will have any effect on the rights, duties or obligations of the parties under, or otherwise modify, this Agreement regardless of any failure of HOVER to object to such terms, provisions, or conditions, except where the same have been mutually agreed-to in writing by the parties.

(f) This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, including by .pdf format, each of which so executed will be deemed to be an original and such counterparts together will constitute one and the same instrument.

(g) This Agreement will be interpreted and construed pursuant to the laws of the State of New York and the United States without regard to conflict of laws provisions thereof, and without regard to the United Nations Convention on the International Sale of Goods. In the event of a dispute arising under this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, provided that if a party prevails only in part the court shall award fees and costs in accordance with the relative success of each party.

(h) The parties agree to waive any future challenge to the validity and enforceability of any document submitted hereunder on the grounds that it was electronically transmitted and/or authorized.

(i) The language of this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with its fair meaning and not for or against any party. The parties acknowledge that each party has had the opportunity to review this Agreement with counsel, and accordingly the rule of construction that would resolve ambiguities in favor of non-drafting parties shall not apply to the interpretation of this Agreement.

(j) All section and paragraph titles and captions contained in this Agreement are for convenience only and are not deemed a part of the context hereof.
