Standard Terms of Use
Effective July 16, 2024
Please read these Standard Terms of Use (“Terms”) carefully. By using SwiftRev or signing up for an account, you’re agreeing to these Terms, which will result in a legal agreement between you and SwiftRev (“Agreement”).
We’ll start with the basics, including a few definitions that should help you understand these Terms. SwiftRev (“SwiftRev,” “we,” or “us”) is a press release monetization platform (the “App”) that helps media brands monetize and manage inbound press releases (the “Customers”) and is inclusive to all SwiftRev’s software, data and general know-how (the “Technology”). The App is offered at www.SwiftRev.com and any other SwiftRev Site or mobile application owned, operated or controlled by us (we’ll collectively refer to these as the “SwiftRev Site,” and together with the App, the “Service”). SwiftRev is a Georgia LLC whose legal name is SwiftRev LLC. SwiftRev has employees, independent contractors, and representatives (“our Team”). As a customer of the Service or a representative of an entity that’s a customer of the Service, you’re a “Member” according to this Agreement (or “you”).
These Standard Terms of Use (“Terms,” including our Privacy Policy) define the terms and conditions under which you’re allowed to use the Service in accordance with the Agreement, and how we’ll treat your account while you’re a Member. If you don’t agree to these Terms, you must immediately discontinue your use of the Service.
If you have any questions about our Terms, feel free to contact us.
Account
- Eligibility
In order to use the Service, you must:
- be at least eighteen (18) years old and able to enter into contracts;
- complete the account registration process;
- agree to these Terms;
- provide true, complete, and up-to-date contact and billing information;
- not be based in Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, or any other country that is subject to a U.S. government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. government as a “terrorist-supporting” country; and
- not be listed on any U.S. government list of prohibited or restricted persons.
By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you meet all the requirements listed above, and that you won’t use the Service in a way that violates any laws or regulations. Note that by representing and warranting, you are making a legally enforceable promise.
SwiftRev may refuse service, close accounts of any Members, and change eligibility requirements at any time.
- Term
When you sign up for an account and agree to these Terms, the Agreement between you and SwiftRev is formed, and the term of the Agreement (the “Term”) will begin. The Term will continue for as long as you have an SwiftRev account or until you or we terminate the Agreement in accordance with these Terms, whichever happens first. If you sign up for an account on behalf of a company or other entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to accept these Terms and enter into the Agreement on its behalf. - Changes
We may change any of the Terms by posting revised Terms on our SwiftRev Site. Unless you terminate your account, the new Terms will be effective immediately and apply to any continued or new use of the Service. We may change the Service or any features of the Service at any time, and we may discontinue the Service or any features of the Service at any time. - Account
We have the right to update any of your contact information in your account for billing purposes. In addition, you represent and warrant that all information you provide to us when you establish an account, and when you access and use the Service, is and will remain complete and accurate. - Account Disputes
We don’t know the inner workings of your organization or the nature of your personal relationships. You won’t request access to or information about an account that’s not yours, and you’ll resolve any account-related disputes directly with the other party. We decide who owns an account based on the content in that account, and if multiple people or entities are identified in the content, then we’ll rely on the contact and profile information listed for that account. In cases where differing contact and profile information is present, we’ll require you to resolve the matter through proper channels outside of SwiftRev.
When a dispute is identified, we may suspend any account associated with the dispute, including disabling login, to protect the security and privacy of the data held within the account.
Payment
- Plans, Service Period and Billing Changes
We deliver our Service through multiple subscription options that offer varying features and pricing (the “Plans” or “Plan”). We reserve the right to make changes to our Plans, including feature availability, pricing and any other consideration. We will provide early notification of changes to the Plans to Members, as possible, and as exclusively determined by SwiftRev.
The Service will be delivered on a recurring time basis (the “Service Period”), between which Members will be charged for access to the Service. The Service Period length is dependent on which Plan the Member is currently subscribed to. - Limited Free Trial and Billing
We may grant you a limited free trial during which you will receive the Service free of charge. Thereafter, you will be charged some combination of a recurring fee per property in the SwiftRev platform; a percentage of all revenue generated by the SwiftRev platform for your properties; or a fixed amount paid on an annual basis. - Service Period Expire and Automatic Renewal
Your account will be renewed automatically within 30 days of the end of your Service Period (“Automatic Renewal Date”), unless written notice of cancellation was sent previous to the Automatic Renewal Date.
By subscribing to the Service you give us the right to charge your credit card, or bill you via other payment methods, for fees connected with the Service such as renewal fees or fees for extra services.
You will pay any and all applicable international, federal, state, and local sales, use, value-added, excise, duty, and any other taxes, fees, or duties, not based on our net income, that are assessed on or as a result of the Service. Any such taxes, fees, and duties collected by us from you on behalf of a governmental agency shall not be considered a part of, a deduction from, or an offset against, payments due to us for the Service.
For any change in your recurring service fee, we will automatically charge your credit card or bank account that you provided or bill you via other payment methods for the new rate on your next billing cycle.
After discontinuation of the Service, should an end customer purchase a Paid Press Release through your Website, SwiftRev will not pay any revenue share to you. SwiftRev will not return any revenue generated while the Widget is live on your website but there is no active contractual relationship between SwiftRev and you. - One-Time Projects
Some customers may complete one-time projects with no expectation of recurrence. These one-time projects will be invoiced within 10 business days of project completion. - Invoice Access
Copies of invoices may be requested by sending an email to support@swiftrev.com. - Debit and Credit Cards
For recurring fees, Members may pay using credit cards. To request credit card payment in a situation where an offline invoice was provided, contact us and we will send you a link for online payment by credit card.
Any Member who disputes a credit card payment through a card issuer that is found to be valid will be permanently banned from the use of the Service.
- Refunds
We’ll give you a refund for a prepaid Term if we stop providing the Service and terminate your account without cause. You won’t be entitled to a refund or credit from us under any other circumstances. We may, at our sole discretion, offer a refund, discount or credit. - Superseding Contractual Agreement
Should an additional contractual agreement outside of these Terms be in place between us and you, the specific contractual terms of that agreement will supersede these terms (“Superseding Terms”).
Rights

And to be clear, SwiftRev will only disclose Aggregate Data externally in a de-identified (anonymous) form that does not identify you, or SwiftRev Sites visitors (“Visitors”), and that is stripped of all persistent identifiers (such as device identifiers, IP addresses, and cookie IDs). You are not responsible for SwiftRev’s use of Aggregate Data.

You represent and warrant that your use of the Service will comply with all applicable laws and regulations. You’re responsible for determining whether the Service is suitable for you to use in light of your obligations under any regulations like HIPAA, GLB, EU data privacy laws (including the General Data Protection Regulation) (“EU Data Privacy Laws”), United States export control laws and regulations and economic sanctions laws and regulations (“U.S. Export Control Laws and Regulations”), or other applicable laws.

- Export Controls
The software that supports the App (the “Software”) is subject to U.S. Export Control Laws and Regulations.

None of the Software may be downloaded or otherwise exported or re-exported in violation of U.S. Export Control Laws and Regulations and any other applicable export laws and regulations (collectively, “Export Control Laws”). Therefore, you agree that you won’t, directly or indirectly through a third party, allow the Software or your Data to be accessed or generated from within, or distributed or sent to, any prohibited or embargoed country as mentioned in any Export Control Laws. In addition, you certify that neither you nor any principals, officers, directors, or any person or entity you know to be directly involved with the use of the Service is designated on any U.S. government list of prohibited or restricted persons.
It’s important to note that this section isn’t meant to provide a comprehensive summary of the Export Control Laws that govern SwiftRev, the Service, or the Software. You are using the Software at your own risk, and it’s your responsibility to consult with a legal advisor to make sure your use of the Service and the Software complies with applicable laws.

For the avoidance of doubt, in no instance will we or our Team be liable for any losses or damages you suffer if you use the Service in violation of these Terms, regardless of whether we terminate or suspend your account due to such violation.
- No Warranties

This means that, except as expressly stated in these Terms, we don’t provide warranties, conditions, or undertakings of any kind in relation to the Service, either express or implied. This includes, but isn’t limited to, warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose, which are, to the fullest extent permitted by law, excluded from the Agreement. Since Members use the Service for a variety of reasons, we can’t guarantee that it will meet your specific needs. - Indemnity

Your violation of these Terms may cause irreparable harm to us and our Team. Therefore, we have the right to seek injunctive relief or other equitable relief if you violate these Terms (meaning we may request a court order to stop you). - Subpoena Fees
If we have to provide information in response to a subpoena, court order, or other legal, governmental, or regulatory inquiry related to your account, then we may charge you for our costs. These fees may include attorney and employee time spent retrieving the records, preparing documents, and participating in a deposition.

Notifying you of a security incident or cooperating with you to respond to one will not be deemed an acknowledgement or assumption of any liability or fault of SwiftRev for such incident. - Notices
Any notice to you will be effective when we send it to the last email or physical address you gave us or when posted on our SwiftRev Site. Any notice to us will be effective when delivered to us. - Entire Agreement

This includes, but isn’t limited to, warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose, which are, to the fullest extent permitted by law, excluded from the Agreement. Since Members use the Service for a variety of reasons, we can’t guarantee that it will meet your specific needs. - Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold us and our Team harmless from any losses, including legal fees and expenses that directly or indirectly result from any claims you make that aren’t allowed under these Terms due to a “Limitation of Liability” or other provision. You also agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any losses, including legal fees and expenses, that directly or indirectly result from (i) your Content, (ii) your use of the Service, (iii) your violation of any laws or regulations, (iv) third-party claims that you or someone using your password did something that, if true, would violate any of these Terms, (v) any misrepresentations made by you, or (vi) a breach of any representations or warranties you’ve made to us. - Equitable Relief
Your violation of these Terms may cause irreparable harm to us and our Team. Therefore, we have the right to seek injunctive relief or other equitable relief if you violate these Terms (meaning we may request a court order to stop you). - Subpoena Fees
If we have to provide information in response to a subpoena, court order, or other legal, governmental, or regulatory inquiry related to your account, then we may charge you for our costs. These fees may include attorney and employee time spent retrieving the records, preparing documents, and participating in a deposition.

If we become aware of a security incident related to our systems or databases that contain personal information of you or your Data, we’ll notify you if required by law. In that event, we’ll also provide you with information about that incident so that you can evaluate the consequences to you and any legal or regulatory requirements that may apply to you, unless we’re prevented from doing so by legal, security or confidentiality obligations. Notifying you of a security incident or cooperating with you to respond to one will not be deemed an acknowledgement or assumption of any liability or fault of SwiftRev for such incident. - Notices
Any notice to you will be effective when we send it to the last email or physical address you gave us or when posted on our SwiftRev Site. Any notice to us will be effective when delivered to us. - Entire Agreement
