Vel­lum offers a pub­lic web­site, legal prod­ucts, and legal ser­vices. When you visit Vellum’s site, pur­chase one of its prod­uct, or sub­scribe to one of its ser­vices, you agree to be bound by these terms.

The Pub­lic Website

Vel­lum doesn’t have mer­chan­dise, but it has lots of infor­ma­tion, doc­u­ments, pic­tures and the like. Just as you wouldn’t take or copy any of the files, fold­ers, doc­u­ments, infor­ma­tion, paint­ings, etc. in an office; you wont take any of Vellum’s stuff or try to recre­ate it. Remem­ber, you’re a guest. You’ll also obey the law. That kind of goes with­out say­ing; but you should be aware that there are all kinds of other laws that gov­ern Vellum’s web­site. Vel­lum expects you to fol­low these rules. These terms don’t mod­ify or waive any of Vellum’s rights under these laws. Vellum’s mate­ri­als are pro­vided as-is. Vel­lum doesn’t make any warranties. If you use Vellum’s site and are dam­aged by using it, Vel­lum is not respon­si­ble for those dam­ages. You’re using the site at your own risk.

Legal Prod­ucts and Legal Services

If you take the next step and cre­ate a user­name and pass­word to pur­chase a prod­uct or ser­vice on Vellum’s web appli­ca­tion, then Vel­lum grants you a license to login, upload non-objectionable data (Vel­lum decides what is objec­tion­able), print your data, and dis­play your data in accor­dance with the design of the web appli­ca­tion, the prod­uct you pur­chases, your sub­scrip­tion, and agree­ments asso­ci­ated with spe­cific prod­ucts or agree­ments. That’s it. You don’t have any other rights. You will then be respon­si­ble for your user­name and password.

You will pay for the legal prod­ucts up front. You will pay for sub­scrip­tions on a monthly bases via a valid credit card or a direct pay­ment ser­vice such as Dwolla. The fees and prices are exclu­sive of all taxes. We will not refund or credit you for par­tial month or year of ser­vice (depend­ing on the sub­scrip­tion you pur­chase). You may can­cel your sub­scrip­tion accord­ing to the terms of the ser­vice you pur­chase. You are respon­si­ble for can­cel­ing your sub­scrip­tion. There are no charges for can­cel­ing the ser­vice. If you want the doc­u­ments and data you uploaded back, then you must make a request for it within six months after can­cel­ing the subscription. Vellum will then pro­vide you with a copy of the doc­u­ments and data in your account.

Even though you cre­ated a user­name and pass­word, Vel­lum may refuse to accept a ser­vice or prod­uct. Vel­lum will keep your data safe in accor­dance with the secu­rity poli­cies of its ven­dors. Vel­lum may use third-party ven­dors and host­ing part­ners for its prod­ucts and ser­vices. Vel­lum may change it’s web appli­ca­tion and prices with­out notice. If you con­tinue using the ser­vices after these changes, then your con­tin­ued use is your accep­tance of the changes. Vel­lum may tem­porar­ily sus­pend the ser­vice when­ever it needs to such as upgrades and main­te­nance. Vel­lum may ter­mi­nate your sub­scrip­tion with­out cause at any time.

War­ranties and Liability

Vellum’s prod­ucts and ser­vices are designed to allow you to do most of the work on your own. This allows Vel­lum to keep its costs down. This means that our ser­vices are not per­fectly tai­lored to your needs, but you still get a good fit. It’s kind of like the dif­fer­ence between a tai­lored suit and a suit you buy at JC Penny. Vellum’s pro­vides this por­tion of its legal ser­vices and prod­ucts as-is. Your dam­ages for this part of the ser­vice is lim­ited to the fee you paid for the prod­uct or a one-year sub­scrip­tion rate for the sub­scrip­tion ser­vice. The next part of the ser­vice includes legal advice from an attor­ney. This por­tion of the ser­vice is sub­ject to the attorney-client agree­ment you enter into when you reg­is­ter on Vellum’s web application.

Copy­right

We grant you a license to use a con­tract you cre­ated on Vellum’s web appli­ca­tion just for one final signed copy. If you use it for any other pur­pose, then you are vio­lat­ing Vellum’s copyright.

By using this web site you are agree­ing to be bound by the then cur­rent ver­sion of these terms. The laws of the state of Alaska shall gov­ern any claim you make relat­ing to Vellum’s web site with­out regard to its con­flict of law provisions.
