USER SIGN UP OBLIGATIONS
You need to sign up for a user account by providing all required information in order to access or use the Services. If you represent an organization and wish to use the Services for corporate internal use, we recommend that you, and all other users from your organization, sign up for user accounts by providing your corporate contact information. In particular, we recommend that you use your corporate email address. You agree to: a) provide true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself as prompted by the sign up process; and b) maintain and promptly update the information provided during sign up to keep it true, accurate, current, and complete. If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, outdated, or incomplete, or if BuildCenter has reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, outdated, or incomplete, BuildCenter may terminate your user account and refuse current or future use of any or all of the Services.
ORGANIZATION ACCOUNTS AND ADMINISTRATORS
When you sign up for an account for your organization you will create an administrator account. The administrator will have the right to configure the Services based on your requirements and manage end users in your organization account. If your organization account is created and configured on your behalf by a third party, it is likely that such third party has assumed administrator role for your organization. Make sure that you enter into a suitable agreement with such third party specifying such party’s roles and restrictions as an administrator of your organization account.
You are responsible for i) ensuring confidentiality of your organization account password, ii) appointing competent individuals as administrators for managing your organization account, and iii) ensuring that all activities that occur in connection with your organization account comply with this Agreement. You understand that BuildCenter is not responsible for account administration and internal management of the Services for you.
You are responsible for taking necessary steps for ensuring that your organization does not lose control of the administrator accounts. You may specify a process to be followed for recovering control in the event of such loss of control of the administrator accounts by sending an email to info@buildcenter.com, provided that the process is acceptable to BuildCenter . In the absence of any specified administrator account recovery process, BuildCenter may provide control of an administrator account to an individual providing proof satisfactory to BuildCenter demonstrating authorization to act on behalf of the organization. You agree not to hold BuildCenter liable for the consequences of any action taken by BuildCenter in good faith in this regard.

You are responsible for all activities that occur in your user account and you agree to inform us immediately of any unauthorized use of your user account by email to info@buildcenter.com or by calling us. We are not responsible for any loss or damage to you or to any third party incurred as a result of any unauthorized access and/or use of your user account, or otherwise.
CONTENT LIABILITY
We shall have no responsibility or liability for any content appearing on your account. You agree to indemnify and defend us against all claims arising out of or based upon your account.
