Terms of Service

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Atlaza platform ("Platform"), operated by RCOTS Inc. ("Atlaza", "we", "us", or "our"), a corporation incorporated under the laws of Ontario, Canada.

By accessing or using the Platform, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Platform. Your continued use of the Platform following any changes to these Terms constitutes acceptance of those changes.

If you are using the Platform on behalf of an organization (such as a church denomination, diocese, or similar body), you represent that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms.

Atlaza is a multi-tenant Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform designed for religious organizations. The Platform provides:

• A searchable, map-based directory of church branches, parishes, and affiliated locations worldwide
• Administrative tools for managing branch data, verifying records, and overseeing regional hierarchies
• Parish profile pages with contact information, service schedules, leadership details, and announcements
• Data import and geocoding tools for bulk management of branch records
• AI-powered query tools for organizational analytics
• Theme marketplace for customizing parish presentation
• A claim system allowing pastors and church leaders to verify ownership of parish listings

The Platform is made available to organizational tenants ("Tenants") and to end users accessing tenant-specific directories. Features and access levels vary based on the subscription plan selected by the Tenant.

To access certain features of the Platform, you must create an account. You agree to:

• Provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration
• Maintain and promptly update your account information
• Keep your password secure and confidential
• Enable two-factor authentication if you are assigned an administrative role
• Notify us immediately of any unauthorized access to your account
• Accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account

You must be at least 18 years of age to create an account. Accounts are not transferable without our prior written consent.

The Platform allows users and Tenants to submit, upload, and manage content including parish names, addresses, contact information, descriptions, photographs, service schedules, and leadership information ("Content").

By submitting Content, you grant Atlaza a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, store, display, reproduce, and distribute that Content as necessary to provide the Platform services.

You represent and warrant that:

• You own or have the rights to submit the Content
• The Content does not infringe any third-party intellectual property, privacy, or other rights
• The Content is accurate to the best of your knowledge

Atlaza does not claim ownership of Content you submit. You retain all ownership rights to your Content, subject to the license granted above.

The Platform, including its software, design, features, and documentation, is owned by Atlaza and protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, or create derivative works based on the Platform without our prior written permission.

"Atlaza" and associated logos are trademarks of RCOTS Inc. Other trademarks appearing on the Platform belong to their respective owners. Nothing in these Terms grants you any right to use any trademark displayed on the Platform.

Certain Platform features are available only through paid subscription plans ("Plans"). Billing is processed through Stripe, Inc. By subscribing to a paid Plan, you authorize us to charge the applicable fees to your designated payment method on a recurring basis.

Billing cycle: Subscriptions are billed monthly or annually depending on the Plan selected. Billing begins on the date you activate a paid Plan.

Free trial: New Tenants may receive a trial period as specified at sign-up. At the end of the trial, billing begins automatically unless you cancel before the trial expires.

Refunds: Monthly subscriptions may be cancelled at any time; you retain access through the end of the current billing period. Annual subscriptions may be eligible for a pro-rated refund within 14 days of the initial purchase or renewal if requested in writing to legal@rcots.com. Theme marketplace purchases are non-refundable once the theme has been applied to a parish.

Price changes:We reserve the right to modify subscription pricing with at least 30 days' written notice to the Tenant's registered email address.

All fees are exclusive of applicable taxes. You are responsible for any taxes applicable to your subscription in your jurisdiction.

The Platform may contain branch and parish records sourced from automated web scraping, third-party data imports, or user submissions. Atlaza makes no representation or warranty that any directory listing is accurate, current, or complete.

• Scraped data may be outdated, incomplete, or contain errors from the original source
• Parish contact information, service times, and leadership details are subject to change
• Geocoordinates are approximated and may not reflect exact physical locations
• Unverified listings ("unverified" status) have not been confirmed by the parish itself

Users should independently verify critical information before relying on it. Atlaza shall not be liable for any loss or damage arising from reliance on inaccurate directory data. Tenants are responsible for the accuracy of data they upload or approve.

You agree not to use the Platform to:

• Violate any applicable law, regulation, or these Terms
• Submit false, misleading, or fraudulent information about any church or religious organization
• Harass, threaten, or harm any individual or organization

Either party may terminate your account or subscription at any time. You may cancel your subscription through your account settings or by contacting legal@rcots.com.

Atlaza may suspend or terminate your access immediately if you breach these Terms, engage in fraudulent activity, or if required by law. Upon termination, your right to use the Platform ceases immediately.

Following termination of a Tenant account, Atlaza will retain branch data for 90 days during which the Tenant may request an export. After 90 days, data is permanently deleted. Atlaza has no obligation to retain or deliver Content after this period.

THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

Atlaza does not warrant that the Platform will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of viruses or other harmful components. We do not warrant the accuracy, reliability, or completeness of any Content or data on the Platform.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ATLAZA AND ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING FROM:

• Your use of or inability to use the Platform
• Any unauthorized access to or alteration of your data
• Any errors or inaccuracies in directory listings
• Any third-party conduct or content on the Platform

IN NO EVENT SHALL ATLAZA'S TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO ATLAZA IN THE 12 MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM OR (B) CAD $100.

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Atlaza and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your use of the Platform, your Content, or your violation of these Terms.

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to conflict of law principles.

Your continued use of the Platform after the effective date of any changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

Severability: If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force.

Entire Agreement: These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Atlaza regarding the Platform and supersede all prior agreements.
