Date Last Revised: May 4, 2009

This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions that apply to your access and use of the Internet Web site owned and operated by MinutesMinder, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“MinutesMinder”), and located at www.minutesminder.com (“MinutesMinder.com”). By using MinutesMinder.com you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement, as it may be amended from time to time in the future (see “Modifications” below).

1. Accepting the Terms

By using the information, tools, features and functionality located on MinutesMinder.com (together the “Service”), you agree to be bound by this Agreement, whether you are a "Visitor" (which means that you simply browse the MinutesMinder.com website) or you are a "Member" (which means that you have registered with MinutesMinder). The term “you” or "User" refers to a Visitor or a Member. If you wish to become a Member, communicate with other Members and make use of the Service, you must read this Agreement and indicate your acceptance during the Registration process.

You may not use the Service and you may not accept this Agreement if you are not of a legal age to form a binding contract with MinutesMinder. If you accept this Agreement, you represent that you have the capacity to be bound by it or if you are acting on behalf of a company or entity that you have the authority to bind such entity. Before you continue, you should print or save a local copy of this Agreement for your records.

2. Privacy and your Personal Information

How MinutesMinder treats your personal information, and protects your privacy, when you access MinutesMinder.com and use the Service may be updated from time to time at our discretion. Changes will be effective upon posting to the site.

3. Description of the Service

The Service is a personal cell phone information management service that allows Members to track their cell phone information on MinutesMinder.com. Based on such information, the Service may also present information relating to third party products or services (“MinutesMinder Offers”).

The Service is provided to you by MinutesMinder without charge (it is free) and is meant as an aid to assist you in organizing and managing your cell phone usage.

4. Account Information from Third Party Sites

With the Service, Members may direct MinutesMinder to retrieve their own information maintained online by third-party telecommunication institutions with which they have customer relationships or maintain accounts ("Account Information "). MinutesMinder works with one or more online telecommunication service providers to access this Account Information. MinutesMinder makes no effort to review the Account Information for any purpose, including but not limited to accuracy, legality or non-infringement. MinutesMinder is not responsible for the products and services offered by or on third-party sites.

MinutesMinder cannot always foresee or anticipate technical or other difficulties which may result in failure to obtain data or loss of data, personalization settings or other service interruptions. MinutesMinder cannot assume responsibility for the timeliness, accuracy, deletion, non-delivery or failure to store any user data, communications or personalization settings. For example, when displayed through the Service, Account Information is only as fresh as the time shown, which reflects when the information is obtained from such sites. Such information may be more up-to-date when obtained directly from the relevant sites. You can refresh your Account Information through the Service, in the manner prescribed in the associated instructions.

5. MinutesMinder Offers and Third-Party Links

Some parts of the Service are supported by sponsored links from advertisers and display MinutesMinder Offers that may be custom matched to you based on information stored in the Service, queries made through the Service or other information.

In connection with MinutesMinder Offers, the Service will provide links to other web sites belonging to MinutesMinder advertisers and other third parties. MinutesMinder does not endorse, warrant or guarantee the products or services available through the MinutesMinder Offers (or any other third-party products or services advertised on or linked from our site), and MinutesMinder is not responsible for the activities or policies of those web sites. MinutesMinder does not guarantee that the service terms, rates or rewards offered by any particular advertiser or other third party on MinutesMinder.com are actually the terms that may be offered to you if you pursue the offer or that they are the best terms or lowest rates available in the market.

6. Your Registration Information

You agree and understand that you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password which, together with your LoginID e-mail address, allows you to access the Service. That Login ID and password, together with any mobile number or other contact information you provide form your “Registration Information.”

By providing us with your e-mail address, you agree to receive all required notices electronically, to that e-mail address. It is your responsibility to update or change that address, as appropriate. Notices will be provided in HTML (or, if your system does not support HTML, in plain-text) in the text of the e-mail or through a link to the appropriate page on our site, accessible through any standard, commercially available internet browser.

If you become aware of any unauthorized use of your Registration Information, you agree to notify MinutesMinder immediately at the email address security@minutesminder.com

7. Your Use of the Service

Your right to access and use MinutesMinder.com and the Service is personal to you and is not transferable by you to any other person or entity. You are only entitled to access and use MinutesMinder.com for lawful purposes.

Accurate records enable MinutesMinder to provide the Service to you. You must provide true, accurate, current and complete information about your accounts maintained at other web sites, and you may not misrepresent your Registration Information. In order for the Service to function effectively, you must also keep your Registration Information up to date and accurate. If you do not do this, the accuracy and effectiveness of the Service to you will be affected.

Your access and use of MinutesMinder.com may be interrupted from time to time for any of several reasons, including, without limitation, the malfunction of equipment, periodic updating, maintenance or repair of MinutesMinder.com or other actions that MinutesMinder, in its sole discretion, may elect to take.

8. Online and Mobile Alerts

MinutesMinder may from time to time provide automatic alerts and voluntary account-related alerts.

Automatic alerts are sent to you following certain changes made online to your MinutesMinder account, such as a change in your Registration Information. You do not need to activate these alerts. Although you may have the option to suppress some of these automatic alerts, we strongly recommend that you do not since they are security-related.

Voluntary account alerts may be turned on by default as part of the Service. They may then be customized, deactivated or reactivated by you. These alerts allow you to choose alert messages for your accounts. MinutesMinder may add new alerts from time to time, or cease to provide certain alerts at any time upon its sole discretion. Each alert has different options available, and you may be asked to select from among these options upon activation of your alerts service.

Electronic alerts will be sent to the email address you have provided as your primary email address for MinutesMinder.com. If your email address or your mobile device’s email address changes, you are responsible for informing us of that change. You can also choose to have alerts sent to a mobile device that accepts text messages. Changes to your email address or mobile number will apply to all of your alerts.

Because alerts are not encrypted, we will never include your passcode. However, alerts may include your MinutesMinder.com Login ID and some information about your accounts. Depending upon which alerts you select, information such as an account balance or the due date for your credit card payment may be included. Anyone with access to your email will be able to view the content of these alerts. At any time you may disable future alerts.

9. Rights You Grant to Us

As the owner of any information, data, passwords, usernames, PINs, other log-in information, materials or other content (collectively, "Accounts Content") you provide to us through the Service, you are licensing the Accounts Content to MinutesMinder solely for the purpose of providing the Service.

By submitting Accounts Content, you represent that you are entitled to submit it to MinutesMinder for use for this purpose, without any obligation by MinutesMinder to pay any fees or other limitations.

By using the Service, you expressly authorize MinutesMinder to access your Account Information maintained by identified third parties, on your behalf as your agent.

You hereby authorize and permit MinutesMinder to use information submitted by you to the Service (such as account passwords and users names) to accomplish the foregoing and to configure the Service so that it is compatible with the third party sites for which you submit your information. For purposes of this Agreement and solely to provide the Account Information to you as part of the Service, you grant MinutesMinder a limited power of attorney, and appoint MinutesMinder as your attorney-in-fact and agent, to access third party sites, retrieve and use your information with the full power and authority to do and perform each thing necessary in connection with such activities, as you could do in person. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT WHEN MINUTESMINDER IS ACCESSING AND RETRIEVING ACCOUNT INFORMATION FROM THIRD PARTY SITES, MINUTESMINDER IS ACTING AS YOUR AGENT, AND NOT AS THE AGENT OF OR ON BEHALF OF THE THIRD PARTY. You understand and agree that the Service is not sponsored or endorsed by any third parties accessible through the Service.
