General Terms of Service

Effective Date: 18 May 2021

These General Terms of Service (the ‘General Terms’) are an agreement between you (‘you’ or ‘your’) and Squareup International Limited, a company incorporated in Ireland with company number 583287 whose registered office is at 70 Sir John Rogerson’s Quay, Dublin 2, Ireland (‘Square’, ‘we’, ‘our’ or ‘us’). These General Terms govern your use of Square’s services, including mobile applications, websites, software, cloud-based services, hardware and other products and services (collectively, the ‘Services’), whether such Services are offered by Square, or any of its affiliates (each, a ‘Square Company’).

With effect from the earlier of your clicking “Accept” or your use of any of the Services, you accept and agree to these General Terms and any policies referenced within (‘Policies’), including terms that limit Square’s liability (see Section 19) and require arbitration for any potential legal dispute (see Section 22). You also agree to any additional terms specific to Services you use (the ‘Additional Terms’). Those Additional Terms become part of your agreement with us, including those listed below (collectively, the ‘Terms’). If you are using the Services on behalf of a business, you agree that you are accepting the Terms and have authority to accept the Terms, on behalf of that business.

Data Processing Terms: These terms (‘Data Processing Terms’) govern the processing by Square of your customers’ and your employees’ personal data on your behalf. These terms will apply to the processing of your customers’ or employees’ personal information by Square in the course of providing you with the Services.

Payment Terms: These terms (‘Payment Terms’) apply to all payments processed through the Services.

Additional Point of Sale Terms of Service: These terms (‘Additional Point of Sale Terms’) apply to your use of certain additional products and services offered by Square, such as gift cards.

Capitalised terms not defined in the General Terms shall have the meaning provided in the Additional Terms.

1. Square Account Registration

You must open an account with Square (a ‘Square Account’) to use the Services. During registration, Square will ask you for information, including your name and other personal information. You must provide accurate and complete information in response to Square’s questions and keep that information current by updating Square Support. You are fully responsible for all activity that occurs under your Square Account, including for any actions taken by persons to whom you have granted access to the Square Account. Square reserves the right to suspend or terminate the Square Account of any user who provides inaccurate, untrue or incomplete information or who fails to comply with the account registration requirements.

2. Revisions, Disclosures and Notices

Square may amend the General Terms and any applicable Additional Terms or Policies at any time with notice that it deems to be reasonable in the circumstances, by posting the revised version on Square’s website (the ‘Square Website’) or communicating it to you through the Services (each, a ‘Revised Version’). Each Revised Version will be effective as of the time it is posted. Your continued use of the Services after the posting of a Revised Version constitutes your acceptance of such Revised Version. However, any Dispute (as defined in Section 21) that arose before the changes will be governed by the General Terms, Additional Terms or Policies in place when the Dispute arose. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Payment Terms may be varied only in accordance with the provisions set out in Section 36 of the Payment Terms.

You agree to Square’s E-Sign Consent. Unless applicable (a) laws, (b) regulatory requirements, including the European Union (Payment Services) Regulations 2018 (‘Payment Services Regulations 2018’) or (c) mandatory standards or codes of practice of any competent authority (collectively, ‘Applicable Law’) require an alternative or specific method of communication, you agree that any Square Company may electronically provide or make available to you (as relevant) any Communication (as defined below), by (i) posting it on the Square Website, (ii) pushing notifications through the Services, (iii) emailing it to the email address listed in your Square Account, (iv) sending you a text message to the primary mobile phone number you have listed in your Square Account, (v) uploading it to your Square Account or (vi) making the Communications otherwise accessible via the Square Website or other applications. In such circumstances, a Communication has the same meaning and effect as if such Square Company had provided you with paper copies. A Communication is considered received by you twenty-four (24) hours after it is issued, unless the relevant Square Company receives notice that it was not delivered.

If you wish to withdraw your consent to receiving electronic Communications, you should contact Square Support. Any withdrawal of your consent will be effective four weeks after Square Support receives your email. If Square Companies are not able to communicate with you otherwise than electronically as set out in this Section 2, you may need to terminate your Square Account or your use of certain or all of the Services.

You have the right to receive a Communication in paper form. To request a paper copy of any Communication at no charge, please email Square Support no later than 180 calendar days of the date the Communication was issued.

You can change your email address by emailing Square Support. You may also be able to change your email address through your Square Account.

A ‘Communication’ includes but is not limited to any: (a) disclosure, (b) notice, (c) agreement or policy such as the Additional Terms, (d) payment authorisation or transaction receipt or confirmation, (e) account statement or history or (f) relevant tax statement or document or any other written information relating to your Square Account or your use of the Services.

3. Restrictions

You may not directly or indirectly export the Services. The Services may be subject to export restrictions imposed by Applicable Law. You may not, nor may you permit any third party to: (a) access or monitor any material or information on any Square Company system using any manual process or robot, spider, scraper or other automated means; (b) copy, reproduce, alter, modify, create derivative works, publicly display, republish, upload, post, transmit, resell or distribute in any way material, Services or information from any Square Company; (c) use and benefit from the Services via a rental, lease, timesharing, service bureau or other arrangement; (d) transfer any rights granted to you under these General Terms; (e) violate the restrictions in any robot exclusion headers on any Service, work around, bypass or circumvent any of the technical limitations of the Services, use any tool to enable features or functionalities that are otherwise disabled in the Services or decompile, disassemble or otherwise reverse engineer the Services, except to the extent that such restriction is expressly prohibited by Applicable Law; (f) perform or attempt to perform any actions that would interfere with the proper working of the Services, prevent access to or use of the Services by any person that signs up for a Square Account to use Payment Services (a ‘Square Seller’) or impose an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on Square’s infrastructure; (g) use the Services in a way that distracts or prevents you from obeying traffic or safety laws; (h) use the Services for the sale of firearms, firearm parts, ammunition, weapons or other devices designed to cause physical harm; (i) use the Services for any illegal activity or goods or in any way that exposes you, other Square Sellers, any Square Company or any of their partners to harm; or (j) otherwise use the Services except as expressly allowed under this these General Terms and applicable Additional Terms and Policies.

If Square reasonably suspects (including as a result of recommendations made by Square) that your Square Account has been used for an unauthorised, illegal or criminal purpose, you give Square express authorisation to share information about you, your Square Account and any of your transactions with law enforcement.

4. Compatible Mobile Devices and Third Party Carriers

Square gives no warranty that the Services will be compatible with your mobile device or carrier. Your use of the Services may be subject to the terms of your agreements with your mobile device manufacturer or carrier. You may not use a modified device to use the Services if the modification is contrary to the manufacturer’s software or hardware guidelines, including disabling hardware or software controls—sometimes referred to as ‘jail broken.’

5. Your Content

You may be able to upload or provide photos, logos, products, loyalty programmes, promotions, advertisements and other materials or information (‘Content’) using the Services.

You grant each Square Company and its successors a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully-paid, transferable and sub-licensable right to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, prepare derivative works of, distribute, publicly perform and publicly display your Content throughout the world in any media in order to provide and promote the Services. You retain all rights in your Content, subject to the rights you grant to each Square Company in these General Terms. You may modify or remove your Content via your Square Account or by terminating your Square Account, but your Content may persist in historical, archived or cached copies and versions thereof available on or through the Services.

You will not upload or provide Content or otherwise post, transmit, distribute or disseminate through the Services or present in your physical establishment any material that: (a) is false, misleading, unlawful, obscene, indecent, lewd, pornographic, defamatory, libelous, threatening, harassing, hateful, abusive or inflammatory; (b) encourages conduct that would be considered a criminal offense or gives rise to civil liability; (c) breaches any duty toward or rights of any person or entity, including rights of publicity, privacy or Intellectual Property Rights; (d) contains corrupted data or any other harmful, disruptive or destructive files; (e) advertises products or services competitive with a Square Company’s or its partners’ products and services, as determined by Square in its sole discretion; or (f) in Square’s sole judgment, is objectionable, restricts or inhibits any person or entity from using or enjoying any portion of the Services or which may expose any Square Company or Square Seller to harm or liability of any nature.

Although Square has no obligation to monitor any Content, Square has absolute discretion to remove Content at any time and for any reason without notice. You understand that by using the Services, you may be exposed to Content that is offensive, indecent or objectionable. Square takes no responsibility or assumes any liability for any Content, including any loss or damage to any of your Content.

6. Copyright and Trademark Infringement

Square respects the copyright and trademark rights of others and ask you to do the same. Square has adopted a Copyright & Trademark Policy regarding claims that third party material infringes the copyrights or trademarks of others. Square responds to all valid notices of such copyright and trademark infringement and its policy is to suspend or terminate the access privileges of those who infringe the copyrights and trademarks of others.

7. Security

Square has implemented technical and organisational measures designed to secure your personal information from accidental destruction, loss and from unauthorised access, use, alteration or disclosure. However, Square cannot guarantee that unauthorised third parties will never be able to defeat those measures or use your personal information for improper purposes.

You are solely responsible for safeguarding your password and for restricting access to the Services from your compatible mobile devices and computer(s). You will immediately notify Square Support of any unauthorised use of your password or Square Account or any other breach of security. You will immediately take all reasonable steps to mitigate the effects of a security breach and will cooperate with Square and provide all information requested by Square to remediate the breach. Any assistance provided by Square in relation to a security breach does not in any way operate as acceptance or acknowledgement that Square is in any way responsible or liable to you or any other party in connection with such breach.

Notwithstanding Sections 21 and 22, in the event of any dispute between two or more parties as to account ownership, Square will be the sole arbiter of such dispute in its sole discretion after taking into consideration the recommendations of Square. Square’s decision (which may include termination or suspension of any Square Account subject to dispute) will be final and binding on all parties.

8. Privacy

YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

By using any of our Services as a Square Seller, you acknowledge our data practices that apply to you, as set out in the Square Account holder Privacy Notice (the ‘Privacy Notice’). The Privacy Notice explains how Square collects, uses and protects the personal information you provide to us where Square makes use of your personal data to provide you with the Services or for its own purposes. You are required to familiarize yourself with the Privacy Notice prior to using the Services.

YOUR CUSTOMERS’ AND EMPLOYEES’ PERSONAL INFORMATION

Square will process certain of your customers’ or employees’ personal information on behalf of your business as a service provider (‘data processor’). The Data Processing Terms will govern the processing by Square of your customers’ and your employees’ personal data. In such circumstances, you agree that you will comply with the data protection laws applicable to you and will provide data subjects with information on the processing of their personal information which satisfies the transparency requirements of such data protection laws and which ensures that personal information may be processed fairly, lawfully and in a transparent manner.

9. Paid Services

Square Services include both paid-for Services (‘Paid Services’) and free Services for which no fees are charged (‘Free Services’). Square offers certain Paid Services to be paid on a recurring basis (‘Subscription Services’), and others on an as-used or transactional basis (‘A La Carte Services’). Subscription Services may subject you to recurring fees and/or terms. By signing up for a Subscription Service, including after any free trial period, you agree to pay us the subscription fee and any applicable taxes (‘Subscription Fee’). A La Carte Services may subject you to fees charged per usage and/or terms, including transaction volume. By using an A La Carte Service, you agree to pay the fees and any taxes incurred at the time of usage (‘A La Carte Fees’ and, together with Subscription Fees, the ‘Paid Service Fees’).

In general, Paid Service Fees may be paid by debit card, credit card or deducted from your transaction proceeds; however, Paid Service Fees related to hardware may only be paid by debit card or credit card. If you link a debit or credit card to your account, you authorise us to collect Paid Service Fees by debit from your linked debit card or charge to your linked credit card. Regardless of payment device, Square reserves the right to collect Paid Service Fees, by deduction from your transaction proceeds, the Balance (as defined in the Payment Terms) in your Square Account or your linked bank account.

10. Taxes

Taxes include any and all present or future taxes, charges, fees, levies or other assessments, including, without limitation, income, value-added, gross receipts, excise, real or personal property, sales, withholding, social security, occupation, use, severance, environmental, licence, net worth, payroll, employment, franchise, transfer and recording taxes, fees and charges, imposed by any domestic or foreign taxing authority (‘Taxes’).

Unless otherwise stated, all Paid Services Fees are exclusive of any Taxes, including any value-added tax (‘VAT’). You are responsible and liable for determining any and all Taxes, including any VAT, required to be assessed, incurred, collected, paid or withheld for your use of the Services. You also are responsible and liable for (a) determining whether Taxes, including any VAT, apply to your sale of products and services, payments received, and any other transactions arising from or out of your use of the Services, and (b) calculating, collecting, reporting or remitting any Taxes, including any VAT, to the appropriate tax and revenue authorities. Square specifically disclaims any liability for such Taxes.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Square may charge Taxes, including any VAT, as required by law, which you agree to pay, unless you provide Square with timely appropriate, complete, and accurate information and documentation satisfying the legal and tax requirements of the relevant governmental or tax authority to establish that the otherwise applicable VAT is not required to be charged by Square.

Square may be obligated under applicable laws to report certain information to tax and revenue authorities (‘Tax Information’) and/or you with respect to your use of the Services. Upon request, you shall provide Square with the necessary information to complete any applicable Tax Information reporting and recertify such information from time to time, as may be required by applicable law. If you use our Services you acknowledge that we will report to the applicable tax and revenue authorities the required Tax Information (including the total amount of payments you received during the relevant reporting period). We also may, but are not obligated to, send to you the Tax Information reported.

11. Termination

Unless otherwise required by Applicable Law, Square may immediately terminate these General Terms and any applicable Additional Terms or suspend or terminate your Square Account or your access to any Service. Square may terminate your Square Account if you, as a for-profit business, as a matter of policy, discriminate in providing goods or services to people based on sexual preference, race, colour, religion, sex, national origin, age or disability. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Square may only terminate the Payment Services (as defined in the Payment Terms) in accordance with the Payment Terms.

You may terminate these General Terms or any Additional Terms at any time from your Square Account Settings. If you terminate these General Terms, you will be deemed to have terminated the Payment Terms on the same day.

Any Dispute between you and Square arising out of or in connection with these General Terms or any Additional Terms or Policies, including in respect of their interpretation, subject-matter or termination, will be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration under the rules of the London Court of International Arbitration (‘LCIA’), which rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into these General Terms.

Any reference to arbitration under this Section 22 will be deemed to be a reference to arbitration within the meaning of the Arbitration Act 2010.

Square will pay all the arbitration fees due to LCIA for any Dispute. If you prevail on any claim for which you are legally entitled to attorney’s fees, you may seek to recover those fees from the arbitrator. For any claim where you are seeking relief, Square will not seek to have you pay its attorney’s fees, even if fees might otherwise be awarded, unless the arbitrator determines that your claim was frivolous. For purposes of this arbitration provision, references to you and Square also include respective subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors, successors and assigns as well as authorised users or beneficiaries of the Services. If any provision of this arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision will be severed and the remaining arbitration terms will be enforced.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in these General Terms, Policies, Additional Terms or related documents will prevent any party from commencing proceedings and pursuing claims before a court of competent jurisdiction in accordance with the second paragraph of Section 23 in cases in which interim, injunctive or declaratory relief is required or where the right to issue proceedings would be prejudiced by the impending expiration of any applicable limitation period.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 22, any Dispute, to the extent arising out or of connection with the Payment Services, may only be resolved in accordance with Section 38 of the Payment Terms.

23. Governing Law

These General Terms and any Dispute are governed by the law of Ireland, without regard to choice of law or conflicts of law principles.

Subject to and without waiver of the arbitration provisions in Section 22, you irrevocably agree that the Irish courts will have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any Dispute, but Square is entitled to apply to any court worldwide for injunctive or other remedies in order to protect or enforce their respective Intellectual Property Rights and/or Confidential Information.

24. Limitation on Time to Initiate a Dispute

Any action or proceeding by you relating to any Dispute must commence within one year after the cause of action accrues.

25. Assignment

These General Terms and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you and any attempted transfer or assignment will be null and void.

You and each Square Company agree that it shall have no claim for innocent or negligent misrepresentation or negligent misstatement based on any statement in these General Terms and any applicable Additional Terms and Policies. If any provision of these General Terms or any Additional Term is invalid or unenforceable under Applicable Law, then it will be changed and interpreted to accomplish the objectives of such provision to the greatest extent possible under Applicable Law and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect. These General Terms do not limit any rights that Square may have under trade secret, copyright, patent or other laws. No waiver of any term of these General Terms will be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term.

Nothing in these General Terms or in any document referred to herein or in any arrangement contemplated herein creates a partnership or joint venture.

It is a condition of these General Terms that, in pre-contract negotiations and in the exercise of its rights or the performance of its obligations under these General Terms, each party hereto will at all times ensure its compliance with all Applicable Law relating to anti-bribery and anti-corruption, including the Criminal Justice (Corruption Offences) Act 2018 and the UK Bribery Act 2010 (‘Anti-bribery Laws’) and that no party hereto will commit (or procure the commission of) any breach of any Anti-bribery Laws or do anything that would cause any other party to commit an offence under any Anti-bribery Laws.
