This is a Terms of Use and Conditions Agreement “Agreement” between the customer (“Subscriber”), authorized reseller distributor (“Distributor”) and XeroIn LLC (“XeroIn”) during the duration of period of use.
Service: Subscriber may purchase the XeroIn GPS tracking software and applications (“Service”) from a Distributor on any XeroIn plans and the Subscriber automatically accepts the Terms of Use and Conditions set forth herein.
XeroIn is the software manufacturer and does not sell the GPS tracking hardware that works in conjunction with the XeroIn proprietary Service. XeroIn provides Service access to its Distributors Subscribers, as long as the vehicle is owned by the Subscriber and all other terms and conditions are met. The Subscriber must have purchased a XeroIn Service and GPS tracking device from Distributor.
Availability: Service is available to the Subscriber on any XeroIn Service plan purchased from Distributor (a) only within the United States, Canada and Mexico. (b) Service is also limited by the type of GPS tracking hardware sold separately by Distributor and can vary depending on the vehicle(s) electrical system design. XeroIn Service may not function with your GPS tracking device if the vehicle(s) battery is discharged or disconnected. The platform may also become inoperative if the vehicle is in an accident where the GPS tracking system or the vehicle electrical system components are damaged. (d) Cellular and/or GPS capabilities used to deliver Service will not be available if satellite signals and/or cell signals are obstructed.
Activation and Use of Service: Orders for activating, reactivating, changing, transferring or terminating Service will be accepted by XeroIn, LLC only from the Subscriber’s Distributor. If required by a specific XeroIn Service plan, Subscriber agrees to initiate and maintain Service with their Distributor for continued use of the Service. Service plans have “Restricted Data Usage” depending on the selected Service plan: (5 minute 500kb, 2 minute 1mb, 1 minute 2mb). XeroIn at its discretion reserves the rights with respect to the terminology of “Restricted Data Usage” to mean “Reasonable Use.” The end user is granted reasonable usage for the term of Service that was purchased not to exceed reasonable and customary usage. If usage exceeds 20 mobile terminated (SMS) messages and/or an overage in the Service plans allowed data usage in a (30) thirty day period, XeroIn reserves the right to monitor and investigate the usage and suspend and/or withdraw the Service from any individual and/or end user on behalf of the Distributor. Subscriber is responsible for ensuring that the vehicle and Distributor’s hardware are properly maintained. Subscriber agrees that Services can be used only by Subscriber or Subscriber’s authorized user and only in relation to the vehicle that is equipped with the Distributor’s GPS tracking device on the XeroIn Service. Subscriber must provide the name of their authorized user or users at the time of activation or through other direct contact with the Distributor or from within the user management section of the Service. XeroIn at its discretion, may limit the number of authorized users allowed for the Subscribers account. Additionally, Subscriber agrees not to use the Service for any unlawful or abusive purpose or in such a way as to create or risk damage to Distributor or XeroIn’s business, reputation, employees, facilities, third parties or to the public generally and in such cases, Subscriber agrees that Distributor or XeroIn in its sole discretion may terminate Service.
Transferability of Service: The Distributors hardware and XeroIn Services may be transferred between vehicles with authorization from Distributor or XeroIn and only if the following conditions are met: Subscriber agrees to have hardware removed from original vehicle and reinstalled in another vehicle only by an authorized dealer or installer approved or recommended by the Distributor or XeroIn. Subscriber agrees to pay all costs due to authorized dealer or installer for transfer of hardware; Subscriber agrees to pay XeroIn or its designated Distributor a transfer fee, which may be waived at XeroIn discretion. Upon the sale of Subscriber’s hardware equipped within the vehicle, Subscriber may transfer any remaining Service term to the subsequent purchaser of Subscriber’s hardware equipped within the vehicle, provided Subscriber delivers notice to XeroIn or its Distributor and the subsequent purchaser completes and executes a XeroIn Service plan Agreement and agrees to abide by its terms and this Agreement. Service may not otherwise be sold or transferred by Subscriber. Subscriber may be charged a transfer fee and/or be required to upgrade to a higher Service plan and will not be entitled to a refund if certain Services are not available on the vehicle to which the Service is being transferred to.
Term/Rates/Termination/Declination of Service:
A. Subscriber is responsible for all hardware charges, installation fees, and Service fees as set forth in this Agreement or Subscriber’s vehicle purchase Agreement and Service will commence on the Service activation or subscription date.
B. Subscriber agrees that the standard term for XeroIn Services is for the term of his or her ownership of the vehicle and as long as all other terms and conditions are met.
C. Subscriber agrees that the standard term for all Service plans is (12) twelve months up to (72) seventy two months depending on the Service plan elected at time of purchase.

XeroIn reserves the right to modify any and all terms including but not limited to rates, Service plan features and benefits, special promotions and other such programs. Unless otherwise provided, charges for a Service plan are payable in advance upon execution of this Agreement.
D. If Service is declined by Subscriber for any reason, or if this Agreement has expired, is terminated or canceled, or if Subscriber’s account is past due, Distributor or XeroIn is not obligated to provide Service to Subscriber, the vehicle, its purchaser or its occupants. Any voluntary provision of Service by XeroIn in such cases will not be considered a waiver of this provision of such voluntary Service. In the event of a declination of Service, the vehicle purchaser (Subscriber) is not entitled to any refund.
E. Subscriber or XeroIn may terminate this Agreement upon delivery of notice, oral or written, at any time and for any reason.

XeroIn reserves the right to provide credits and/or refunds to customers who have purchased an annual GPS Service plan; however, the provision of such credits or refunds does not constitute the waiving of any right to unused fees.

H. Except as otherwise provided, XeroIn reserves the right to modify the charges for or scope of Services at any time during the term of this Agreement upon (30) thirty day advance notice to Subscriber. Acceptance by XeroIn of advance payments by Subscriber shall not be deemed a waiver of XeroIn or its Distributors right to modify its charges at any time and shall not relieve Subscriber of its obligation to pay such modified charges. In case of any modification of charges, Subscriber shall have the right to terminate this Agreement without payment of any damages, as noted above, by written notice delivered to XeroIn or its Authorized Distributor within (15) fifteen days after such Subscriber is informed of the proposed modification; provided, however, that upon receipt of Subscriber’s election to terminate this Agreement, XeroIn or its Distributor shall have (15) fifteen days to notify Subscriber of its intent not to modify Subscribers charges, in which case this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and binding to Subscriber for the full term at the charges applicable to Subscriber without effect of the proposed modification.

In either case, Subscriber shall remain liable for the payment of all charges incurred under this Agreement through the date of termination, which shall be immediately due and payable. Further, Subscriber may be subject to reactivation charges if Service is subsequently recommenced. These remedies are not exclusive, but are in addition to all remedies provided by law in the event of Subscriber’s default.

Subscriber may downgrade Service during the standard terms, but Subscriber is not entitled to a refund. In the case of frequent changes (more than one every three months), an administrative charge may be assessed. In all such cases, Subscriber consents to XeroIn or its Distributor charging any additional fees to Subscriber’s credit card, Subscriber’s credit card account on file, bank checking account on file or any other account provided to XeroIn or its Distributor for payment of fees.
