Terms of Service


Welcome to the eCampusUSA site, a web site operated by FTI, a corporation: P.O. Box 3249 , McKinney TX (the "Site"). This document explains the terms and conditions for using our Site (the "Agreement"). By using our Site, you consent to this Agreement and any new version of it posted since your last visit. If the Agreement is not acceptable, then please do not use our Site. This Agreement was last updated on: 6/1/2017.

SPECIAL TRIAL OFFER.

We offer first-time members a special thirty (30) day trial period (the "Trial Period"). To avoid being charged the regular subscription fee, you will need to cancel your account before the end of the Trial Period. You are not allowed to register for a Trial Period more than once during an eighteen (18) month period.

YOUR ACCOUNT & PASSWORD.

Your Account.When you register as a new member, a Master Account is set up for you. Each Master Account may have up to 99 Sub-Accounts for persons in your school. When you register your Master Account, you represent that you are at least 18 years old and that, to the best of your knowledge and belief, your registration information is truthful, accurate and complete. You also represent that you are a school administrator currently employed for the school that you are registering. Each Sub-Account will continue only for so long as the Master Account remains registered.

Your Password. A user name and password will be assigned by us for the initial registration and may be changed once you log in. You are responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your password and for activities occurring under your Master Account and each Sub-Account. Be sure to change your password promptly and notify us if you believe your account is being accessed by others. Users may not loan their accounts or passwords to others.

The Content in this Site is copyrighted individually and as a collective work. All rights are reserved. The name "eCampusUSA™" and other names appearing herein are the trademarks or registered trademarks of the Site or the respective third party owners. You will ensure that all copyright, trademark or other proprietary rights notices appearing on any Content remain intact and legible. All licenses are non-exclusive.

You will remove any link to our Site that we find objectionable promptly upon request.

Our Remote Software Applications. Our Site offers users the ability to license and make remote use of software applications and components operated from our servers. Your use of any remotely hosted software application will be governed by the license agreement accompanying such "Remote Hosted Application." In the absence of any such terms, and subject to your payment of any applicable fees, you are granted a personal, revocable, non-transferable license to access remotely and use the Remote Hosted Application from your computer to process your own data in support of your own personal or internal business processes. A Remote Hosted Application designated by our Site as an active "web site component" may be incorporated as an integral feature of your web site and made available to users of your site. Unless expressly authorized, you may not charge a separate fee for making Remote Hosted Applications available to others. Unless you are expressly authorized to "private label" a Remote Hosted Application, you should ensure the feature is properly designated as originating from our Site. Except as stated in a separate agreement, Remote Software Applications licenses are revocable, non-transferable and provided "AS-IS" and "AS AVAILABLE".

Reservation of Rights. All content, communications, software applications, digital products, updates and features of this Site are copyrighted by the Site, its owners, suppliers or other third parties. We reserve all rights not specifically granted to you. This means permission to use the Site and related intellectual property rights will be narrowly interpreted by a court in our favor. Except as specifically authorized in this Agreement, you may not store, copy, reproduce, adapt, reformat, create derivative works of, transmit, disseminate, publicly display or perform any copyrighted material from this Site. You may not reverse engineer our Site or any software obtained from it to discover its underlying design or inner workings (and you will hold in confidence for our benefit alone anything discovered in violation of this provision). If you infringe our intellectual property rights or exceed the scope of permitted use of this Agreement, you agree that we could be irreparably injured and may obtain a court order without necessity of posting bond to enjoin you from further mischief.

APPLICABLE CHARGES & PAYMENT.

The features of our Site may require the payment of a subscription-based fee or other charge. For subscription-based features, you agree not to allow your Master Account or any Sub-Accounts to be used by other persons that do not have an account. We require timely payment of all published fees and charges by the Master Account holder. If you fail to pay applicable fees or charges when due, we may suspend or terminate your accounts and access to services or features. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, all charges are payable in U.S. dollars in advance by major credit card, check or money order. Late payments are subject to costs of collection (including legal fees of 17.5% pre-filing, or 35% if formal proceedings are filed) and shall bear interest at a rate equal to the lesser of one (1) percent per month or the highest rate permitted by law.

SYSTEM SECURITY.

We offer secure web pages to collect certain kinds of information from users and we store certain kinds of sensitive information in encrypted form. We follow reasonable technical and management practices to help protect the confidentiality, security and integrity of data stored on our system. While no computer system is completely secure, we believe the measures implemented by our Site reduce the likelihood of security problems to a level appropriate to the type of data involved.

OUR PRIVACY POLICY.

Our Privacy Policy for this Site is posted at our main page. The terms of that Policy, and any future amendments to it, are hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Agreement and subject to these terms. Third parties providing goods or services to you (including those advertising or providing links on our Site) may have privacy policies or practices that differ from our own. Please check their sites' privacy disclosures for details.

Limitation of Liability. YOU AGREE THIS SITE IS NOT LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT DAMAGES EXCEEDING THE AMOUNT, IF ANY, ACTUALLY PAID TO IT BY YOU DURING THE SIX (6) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO YOUR CLAIM. IN NO EVENT IS THE SITE LIABLE WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE), FOR ANY INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOST SAVINGS, LOST PROFIT, LOST GOODWILL, LOST OR CORRUPTED DATA OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION) EVEN IF NOTIFIED IN ADVANCE OF SUCH POSSIBILITY. THIS LIMITATION IS A MATERIAL CONDITION TO THIS AGREEMENT, IS COMMERCIALLY REASONABLE AND HAS BEEN FACTORED INTO THE AGREEMENT AS A WHOLE.
