Terms of Service
Thank you for your interest in MeasureOne, Inc. ("MeasureOne," "We," “Our” or "Us")!
These Terms of Service (this “Agreement”) represent a legally binding agreement between You and Us governing Your access to and use of Our Services. "You" ( or “Your,” and similar phrases, as the context requires) in the case of an individual accepting this Agreement on his or her own behalf, means that individual, and in the case of an individual accepting this Agreement on behalf of a company or other legal entity, means the company or other legal entity for which that individual is accepting this Agreement, and affiliates of that company or entity (for so long as they remain affiliates).
If You use Our Services, You are agreeing to the Terms of Service set forth in this Agreement. If You do not agree to the Terms of Service set forth in this Agreement, You must not access or use Our Services.
This Agreement begins on the date on which You first access or use the Services. We call that date the "Effective Date" of this Agreement, and Your rights and obligations begin on that specific date.
Please note that We may decide to modify this Agreement from time to time. We have the right to make modifications under this Agreement and You should take a look at Section 8.4 to further understand Our ability to implement modifications.
Here are the specific legal rights and obligations that You and We have under this Agreement:
- ACCESS AND USE RIGHTS; CONSENTS AND PERMISSIONS; RESTRICTION
- Access. Subject to Your compliance with this Agreement, You have the non-exclusive right during the applicable term to: (i) internally use the package of application programming interface materials that We provide, or make available, to You (including associated software, software keys, documentation in all forms and related proprietary platform services being collectively referred to as the “API Package”) for the sole purpose of making Your applications work and interoperate with Our Services (those services, together with the API Package, and the deliverables (including future services that We may offer) related thereto, being collectively referred to in this Agreement as the “Services”) and (ii) use the Services for the benefit of Yourself and, through our API Package, the end users or consumers of Your applications with which You have a contractual relationship under which You may determine to provide them with Your products or services (within the context of this Agreement, the end users and consumers of Your applications are collectively referred to as “Consumers”) and not for any other purpose (subject, in all cases, to Your compliance with all applicable laws, including privacy and data protection laws, regulations and obligations).
- Consents and Permissions. To use Our Services, Consumers need to provide, or make available, to Us, personal account data that may include personally identifiable information about the consenting Consumer, such as the Consumer’s full name, date of birth, social security number, employment, income or other financial information, academic transcripts and student status, educational information, address, telephone numbers and other data that the Consumer gives Us consent, in connection with the delivery of Services to You, to access, obtain, use and extract (including information derived, taken, based on or made available therefrom). As Our customer, You may not receive all of the Consumer’s personal account data that We access, obtain, use and extract with the Consumer’s consent; rather, You will receive only that limited and expressly permissioned and designated data that the Consumer has authorized and permissioned Us to deliver to You in connection with the Services (we call that permissioned and designated data derived, taken, based on or made available from the Consumer’s personal account data, the “Permissioned Data”), as more fully described in Section 1.7.

- Essential Authorizations and Privacy Commitments. Because of the nature of the personal account data that We expect to access, obtain, use and extract with the Consumer’s consent in connection with Your use of Our Services, You (i) acknowledge that We will obtain, through Our API Package, any consents, confirmations, licenses and appointments from Consumers that We determine to be necessary, advisable or appropriate in Our sole discretion to enable and to permit Us to access, obtain, use and extract the Consumer’s personal account data from any third party sources, databases, networks, processors or information systems within which that personal account data may be stored, maintained or reside and upon which Permissioned Data may be based or otherwise taken or derived, and (ii) will comply with Our privacy policy (currently available at https://www.measureone.com/privacy-policy/consumers) and not make any representations or statements with respect to Permissioned Data that are contrary to or otherwise inconsistent with that privacy policy or otherwise make any use of Permissioned Data inconsistent with that policy or this Agreement. In addition, You agree that You will fully cooperate with Us to implement any consent, confirmation, licensing and appointment requirements referred to in this Section 1.7 or otherwise introduced through Our API Package, and that You will not undertake any action, or omit to take any action, that: (x) delays, interferes or impedes, in any way, with Our right or ability to obtain the consents, confirmations, licenses and appointments that are a condition of Your access to, and use of, Our Services; or (y) attempts to limit, modify or otherwise affect, in any way, the consents, confirmations, licenses and appointments referred to in the preceding clause (x).
