1Scope and use of the Website
These Website Terms of Use (“Terms”) set out the rules for accessing the website at 8beehives.com (the “Website”), operated by 8beehives Inc. (“8beehives,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). The Website provides information about our company and products and lets visitors request early access, send us a message, and find open roles.
These Terms apply to Website use. Section 9 also applies when you join the 8beehives SMS program. Any purchase, subscription, pilot, or use of an 8beehives product is governed by the separate agreement and notices provided for that offering. Website inquiries do not create a paid subscription or a contract for restaurant services.
By using the Website, you agree to these Terms. The Website does not ask you to tick a box to accept them; they are available from a link in the Website footer. If you act for a business, you must have authority to submit information and make requests on its behalf.
2Inquiries, demonstrations and early access
Provide accurate contact information and submit only information you are authorized to share. Do not submit confidential restaurant guest records, passwords, payment card details, or unnecessary sensitive information through the Website. We use personal information as described in our Website Privacy Policy at https://8beehives.com/privacy.
Submitting an early access request or a message does not guarantee admission to a program, product availability, a response within a particular time, or any specific pricing. We will communicate the terms of any pilot, paid offering, or product access separately before you agree to participate.
Website descriptions, product pictures, videos, and demonstrations are for information. Product pictures on the Website are illustrations with sample data, not real guest or restaurant records. Some features may be planned, in development, available only in selected offerings, or subject to change. A feature is included in your purchased service only as stated in the applicable agreement. We do not guarantee any particular business outcome from Website materials.
3Website content and permitted use
8beehives and its licensors retain their rights in Website text, graphics, logos, videos, designs, and other materials. You may view the Website and share links for personal use or to evaluate our offerings for your business. Unless permitted by law or authorized by us, do not reproduce substantial Website content, sell it, or use our trademarks in a way that suggests endorsement or affiliation.
Your submission does not transfer ownership of your business information to us. You permit us to receive, store, and use it to address your inquiry and for the purposes described in the Website Privacy Policy. Do not submit material that infringes another person’s rights.
If you send us ideas, suggestions, or other feedback about 8beehives or our products, we may use that feedback without restriction or any obligation to you. This does not give us ownership of your business information or permission to use it beyond what the Website Privacy Policy describes.
4Acceptable use
Do not use the Website to break the law, impersonate others, submit fraudulent inquiries, send spam or malicious code, interfere with operation, bypass security controls, or access information without authorization. Do not use automated tools in a way that materially disrupts the Website or defeats its access restrictions. These Terms do not prohibit honest reviews, lawful criticism, or disclosures protected by law.
5Third party services and availability
The Website may link to services operated by others. Their own terms and privacy policies may apply. We do not control independent third party services or guarantee their availability. A link does not by itself mean that we endorse all content on the linked site.
We may maintain, update, or discontinue Website features. Access may be interrupted by maintenance, technical problems, or events outside our reasonable control. The Website does not include a service level commitment. Any support or availability promises for purchased products belong in the applicable product agreement.
6Disclaimers and liability
We aim to provide useful and accurate information, but Website materials may contain errors or become outdated. Contact us to confirm details relevant to a business decision. The Website is not a source of legal, financial, or other professional advice.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Website and its informational materials are provided “as is” and “as available,” without implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or noninfringement. These Website disclaimers do not change express commitments in a separate signed agreement.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, 8beehives is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential losses, or for lost profits, revenue, or data, arising from use of or inability to use the Website.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, 8beehives’ total liability for all claims arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Website will not exceed one hundred US dollars (US$100). The Website is provided free of charge, and these limits reflect that.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, you will defend and indemnify 8beehives and its officers, employees, and agents against third-party claims, and related losses and reasonable legal costs, arising from your misuse of the Website, your violation of these Terms, or material you submit that infringes another person’s rights.
Nothing in these Terms excludes liability or limits rights that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including any applicable protections concerning fraud, intentional misconduct, or personal injury.
7Restrictions and changes
We may restrict Website access when reasonably necessary to address misuse, unlawful activity, or a security risk. We may update these Terms and will identify the effective date. We will provide notice and obtain renewed acceptance where required. Changes do not retroactively alter existing claims or modify a separate signed product agreement.
8Governing law and general provisions
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Website will be brought only in the state courts located in San Francisco County or Santa Clara County, California, or in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, and you and 8beehives consent to the jurisdiction of those courts. This does not limit any mandatory right you may have to bring a claim in another court. If a provision is unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue to the extent permitted by law. A failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. These Terms, together with the Website Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and 8beehives about the Website. They govern Website use only and do not supersede a separately signed agreement with 8beehives. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. We may give you notices by email or by posting them on the Website, and you may send notices to info@8beehives.com. These Terms do not create any partnership, agency, or employment relationship, and they give no rights to anyone else. Section headings are for convenience only.
