This means that you, not Overproof, are entirely responsible for all Content that you upload, post, email, or otherwise transmit via this Service.

Each time you provide Content, you represent and warrant that you own or otherwise control the rights or have the necessary consents to do so, and you grant every other User who is authorized by you or your employer to use the Service the right to download and use such Content.

Under no circumstances will Overproof be liable in any way for any Content, including, but not limited to, for any errors or omissions in any Content, or for any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of any Content posted, emailed or otherwise transmitted via the Service.

Although Overproof has no obligation to monitor the Service, Overproof may investigate any violation of its policies pursuant to a complaint, or based upon its own discovery, and may take any action that it deems appropriate. Such action may include, but is not limited to, issuing warnings, suspension or termination of service, and/or removal of posted Content.

Easily explained: We can protect the integrity of our Service by removing harmful Content. Please tell us if you see any.
REGISTRATION OBLIGATIONS
You understand and agree that Overproof may ask you to register for various reasons. It is expected that you will provide complete and accurate information.

Overproof reserves the right to terminate any person, group, or company at any time, for any reason.
Overproof strictly prohibits the sharing of account passwords for the purpose of writing Content. Only those individuals who have registered and have accepted and agreed to these Terms of Use may post Content. Therefore, you acknowledge and agree that you will not share your account password with any other individuals or allow any other individuals to write any Content using your account. You also understand and agree that if you do share your account password or allow others to use your account, your account will become eligible for termination.
Overproof is concerned about the safety and privacy of all of its Users, especially children and persons under the legally permitted age for consumption of alcoholic beverages and products applicable in the country or local area he/she is using our Service (“Legal Drinking Age”). For this reason, persons under the Legal Drinking Age are not permitted to use the Service without the supervision of an adult or legal guardian. Overproof requests, but cannot guarantee, that all Users of the Site and Service and all Readers of Content be at least 18 years of age.
All parties involved should use caution and discretion before sharing any credit card information, passwords, account numbers, or any other relevant personal information. You acknowledge and agree that Overproof will not be held responsible or liable for any communications that arise between Senders and Readers from any use of the Service.
YOU AGREE BY REGISTERING AND/OR USING THE SERVICE THAT YOU ARE LEGALLY ABLE TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT. AMONG OTHER THINGS, THIS MEANS (1) IF YOU ARE REGISTERING FOR AN INDIVIDUAL LICENSE ACCOUNT, YOU MUST BE AN INDIVIDUAL OF AT LEAST EIGHTEEN (18) YEARS OF AGE ENROLLING UNDER YOUR OWN NAME AND (2) IF YOU ARE A DESIGNATED USER REGISTERING FOR A BUSINESS LICENSE/ACCOUNT, YOU MUST BE A BONA FIDE EMPLOYEE OR INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR OF THE BUSINESS ENTITY IN WHOSE NAME THE LICENSE/ACCOUNT IS HELD, AND YOU MUST BE AUTHORIZED TO BIND THE BUSINESS ENTITY AND BE AUTHORIZED TO REGISTER UNDER THE NAME OF THE BUSINESS ENTITY.

PAYMENT AND PAYMENT TERMS
Charges applicable to the Service are set forth in the registration process at the Site and in any registration processes for premium services and supplemental services. In the future, current charges, including billing methods, rates, and surcharges for using Overproof’s Service, may be obtained by completing a registration process for the Service. Overproof may now or in the future offer trial periods without certain fees and charges with specific details provided in the registration process for the Service. Overproof reserves the right to change, revise or modify any charges and to institute any new charges. Such changes, revisions, modifications or institutions of new charges will be effective upon notice but will not apply retroactively to any agreement in effect with you.
If you do not pay by credit card, we will invoice you periodically, as described in your order or our other agreements with you. Accounts which are more than thirty (30) days past due may be subject to deactivation at Overproof’s discretion.
If you pay by credit card, we will charge your credit card in advance on a monthly basis. This is done automatically after you enroll for the Service, until we or you terminate your access to the Service. If you add users in later months, the addition to your monthly charge will be pro-rated through the end of your established monthly billing period. You agree to pay all fees and other charges incurred by you or on your account at the rates in effect during the billing period in which the charges were incurred, including any surcharges incurred while using any premium or supplemental services or features for which a surcharge is made upon you or us. You will pay any and all applicable sales, use and like taxes which accrue as a result of a use of the Service by you or on your account.

Until Overproof is notified, you will remain responsible for any unauthorized use of Overproof’s service and systems occurring on your license and account, including without limitation all charges.
After termination of your account, we will not charge you again when the next payment is due, but you will not be entitled to a refund for any pre-paid fees.
All payments must be made in United States Dollars or the equivalent in other currencies and net of foreign exchange fees.
Easily explained: This section describes how we charge and collect our fees.
MODIFICATIONS TO SERVICE; TERMINATION
The Service may be temporarily unavailable for scheduled maintenance or for unscheduled emergency maintenance, or because of other causes beyond Overproof’s reasonable control, but Overproof will use reasonable efforts to provide advance notice in writing or by e-mail of any scheduled unavailability of the Service. Notwithstanding anything else in the Agreement or otherwise, Overproof may monitor your use of the Service and use your Content in an aggregated and anonymous manner, compile statistical and performance information related to the provision and operation of the Service, and may make such information publicly available, provided that such information does not incorporate your Content or identify your confidential information. Overproof retains all intellectual property rights in such aggregated information.
You acknowledge and agree that Overproof, in its sole discretion, may terminate your password, account (or any part thereof) or use of the Service, block or prevent future access to the Service, and remove and discard any Content within the Service at any time for lack of use or if you have violated or acted inconsistently with the nature of these Terms of Use. You agree that any such termination can be effected without any prior or written notice to you and that Overproof will not be held liable to you or any third-party for any termination of access to the Service.
You can terminate the Service at any time. Just log-in and click on ‘Close Account’ in the ‘Manage Subscriptions’ section of the Portal. You will not be entitled to a refund for any pre-paid monthly fees, but we will not charge you again when the next monthly or annual payment is due. You will be able to access the Service until the last day of your subscription.
If any provision of these Terms of Use is determined to be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms of Use and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions.
Easily explained: You can quit anytime if you are on a monthly plan without a term. If you have agreed to a term, you are liable for the fees due until the end of this term. We can terminate your account, stop providing the Service generally or make changes to the Service, all at our discretion.
DEALINGS WITH ADVERTISERS; LINKS TO THIRD PARTY SITES; DATA SUB-PROCESSORS
You acknowledge and agree that any correspondence or business dealings with, or participation in promotions of, advertisers found on or through the Service, including payment and delivery of related goods or services, and any other terms, conditions, warranties or representations associated with such dealings, are solely between you and the advertiser. You agree that Overproof will not be responsible or liable for any loss or damage of any sort incurred as the result of any such dealings or as the result of the presence of such advertisers on the Service.
You understand and agree that the Service may provide, or third parties may provide, links to other websites or resources. Because Overproof has no control over those sites and resources, you acknowledge and agree that Overproof is not responsible for the availability of such external sites or resources, and does not endorse and is not responsible or liable for any Content, advertising, products, or other materials on or available from such sites or resources or for the sites that these sites may link to, including any changes or updates to such sites. You also agree that Overproof will not be held responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with use of or reliance on any such Content, goods or services available on or through any such site or resource. Overproof allows these links as a convenience to the User, and the inclusion of any link does not imply endorsement by Overproof of the Site or any association with its operators.
Easily explained: We may tell you about unrelated websites and services as a favor to you. We are not responsible for what happens between you and them.
PERSONAL DATA PROCESSING AND PROTECTION
Your use of, and our provision of, the Service are subject to our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms of Use. In the event of a conflict between these Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy, the Privacy Policy will take precedence and control.
Because we value your privacy, we have taken the necessary precautions to be in compliance with the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”). We therefore will not sell your personal data to outside parties without your consent. You have the right not to receive discriminatory treatment by the business for the exercise of the privacy rights conferred by California law.
When we receive information directly from visitors to our website who are citizens or residents of the European Union, that information is likely to include “personal data,” as regulated by the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”). As the recipient of this information before the provider subscribes to the Service, we are a “data controller” under the GDPR. As such, we will use that information only for the limited purpose of providing information about our products and services until the person who submitted the information no longer wishes that to occur, and anyone who submits personal data to our website consents to our use of that data for those purposes. As mandated by the GDPR, we will respond to the provider’s requests to delete, correct, transfer, provide information about, and otherwise manage the data you have submitted. You may opt out of any future contacts from us at any time. We provide these rights to anyone who submits information to our website, whether or not he or she is a citizen or resident of the European Union.
If you are using the Service as a customer, you have either enrolled in the Service directly or received authorization to do so from your employer (or if you are not an employee, from a business to which you provide services in another capacity). In those situations, for the avoidance of doubt, in the context of the provision and use of the Service, you are the “data controller” and Overproof is a “data processor” under the GDPR and other applicable privacy or data protection laws and regulations.
You understand and agree that Overproof may engage third parties to process Content on our behalf (sub-processors) in connection with the provision of the Service. List of sub-processors that we have engaged can be found here: List of sub–processors. This list may be updated from time-to-time, so we suggest that you check it periodically.
We will have entered into, and will enter into, agreements with our sub-processors that impose materially equivalent data protection obligations as set forth in these Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy; we will remain obligated to you for our responsibilities under these Terms of Use for the acts or omissions of our sub-processors.
Easily explained: We will comply with the CCPA and the GDPR. We are responsible for third parties that manage your personal data for us. We make every effort to maintain our Site, App, and Portal compliant with ADA guidelines. If we must do better, let us know via overproof.com/ADA

You may not use, frame, or utilize framing techniques to enclose any Overproof trademark, logo, or other proprietary information (including the images and photographs found at the Site, the content of any text and/or the layout or design of any page of the Site) without Overproof’s express written consent.
Overproof does not own any Content. Overproof will not be responsible or liable for the deletion, correction, destruction, damage, loss or failure to store any Content. In the event this Agreement is terminated (other than by reason of your breach), Overproof will make available to you a file of the Content if you so request at the time of termination. The file is delivered via e-mail to your registered e-mail address in unencrypted form. You agree that this is a reasonable form of transmission. Overproof reserves the right to withhold, remove and/or discard Content without notice for any breach, including, without limitation, your non-payment.
Overproof owns the anonymized data, analytics, and insights derived from any Content or from the usage of our Apps, Portal or Site.

Unless a goal in the Order Form is assigned specifically to a Product or selection of Products, the goals set forth in an Order Form may be accomplished with one Product or any combination of the Products included in the program specified in the Order Form.
Some Order Forms may include sales estimates. Our sales estimates are based on our in-field experience with executing market activations and benchmarked by Overproof’s data on the current consumer, menu, and sales trends for specific product categories in each of the targeted markets. Our sales estimates typically vary based on the composition and the duration of the agreed Managed Services for each market and the maturity of a market.
We also factor in specific customer requirements, as target accounts or signature serves. In compliance with federal, state, and local laws, we cannot guarantee the desired sales effect as a result of any of our Managed Services. Therefore, we cannot commit to a sales volume; however, our data-backed projections are typically more accurate than most other agencies. Please be aware that any changes to the program during the execution of a program will inevitably affect our initial sales estimate.

Information for European data subjects
Contact information submitted to the Site
When we receive information directly from visitors to the Site who are citizens or residents of countries in the European Economic Area (“EEA”), that information is likely to include “personal data,” as regulated by the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”). As the recipient of this information (generally, just contact information), we are a “data controller” under the GDPR. As such, we will use that information only for the limited purpose of providing information about our products and services until the person who submitted the information no longer wishes that to occur, and anyone who submits personal data to the Site consents to our use of that data for those purposes.
Other data submitted to, and processed through, the Overproof service
If you are using the Overproof service as a customer, you have either enrolled in the Overproof service directly or received authorization to do so from your employer (or if you are not an employee, from a business to which you provide services in another capacity).
If you have enrolled in the Overproof service directly, then we are a “data controller” under the GDPR with respect to any Personal Data you submit through the Overproof service.
If you have received authorization to use the Overproof service from your employer, we have entered into a contract with the business you work for, and that contract will govern how we handle any information that you submit to our services on behalf of the business you work for. Under the GDPR, we are the “data processor” of this information, and the business you work for is the data controller. We comply with our agreements with data controllers, which generally give the data controllers full decision-making power regarding the collection, storage, processing, modification, deletion, and transfer of any information submitted to our products.
As mandated by the GDPR, you can contact us with regard to the following rights in relation to your Personal Data:
- If you would like to have a copy of the Personal Data we hold on you or if you think that we hold incorrect Personal Data about you, please email [email protected]
- Where you have provided us with consent to use your Personal Data, you can withdraw this at any time (unless you use the Overproof service, in which case we may continue to use your Personal Data, including to contact you in connection with the service for as long as you use it).
- You also have the right to ask us to delete your Personal Data or restrict how it is used. There may be exceptions to the right to erasure for specific legal reasons which, if applicable, we will set out for you in response to your request. Where applicable, you have the right to object to the processing of your Personal Data for certain purposes.
- If you want to make any of these requests, please contact [email protected]
Whenever we transfer your Personal Data out of the EEA, we put in place at least one of these safeguards:
- We will only transfer your Personal Data to countries that have been found to provide an adequate level of protection for Personal Data.
- If you use the Overproof service on behalf of your employer, we will comply with any contractual requirements between us and your employer governing our use of any Personal Data you submit.
- We may also use specific approved contracts with our service providers that are based in countries outside the EEA. These contracts give your Personal Data the same protection it has in the EEA .
Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act Compliance
We are in compliance with the requirements of the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act, and we do not collect any information from anyone under 13 years of age. Our Site is directed to people who are at least 13 years old. By using the Site, you represent and warrant that you are at least 13 years old, or have the permission of your parent or guardian, and otherwise have the right, authority, and capacity to agree to and accept this Privacy Policy.

By using the Site or our service, you consent to this Privacy Policy. You may opt out of receiving future communications from us (with the exception of service information when you continue to use the Overproof service) by logging into your account and editing your profile. You may also opt out of receiving commercial e-mail from us, or other target advertising, by following the instructions in each e-mail.

II. Cookie Policy
What are cookies?
Cookies are pieces of data, normally stored in small text files that are placed on your computer by the websites that you visit. They are widely used in order to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide range of information to the owners of the site. The use of cookies is now standard for most websites and you can find more about cookies here (external link).
Cookies do not typically contain any information that personally identifies a user, but personal information that websites store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies. If you are uncomfortable with our use of cookies, you can manage and control them through your browser, including removing cookies by deleting them from your ‘browser history’ (cache) when you leave the site. You can find more information on managing cookies here.
Types of cookies
Cookies can roughly be divided according to their functionality. Most commonly used are the following types of cookies:
Necessary cookies
They are essential in order to enable you to move around the website and use its features, such as accessing secure areas of the website. Without these cookies services you have asked for, like shopping baskets or e-billing, cannot be provided. We use, e.g., cfduid cookie to identify trusted web traffic and m-b cookie to ensure visitor browsing security by preventing cross-site request forgery.
Functionality cookies
This type of cookies allow the website to remember any choices you make about the website (such as changes to text size, customized pages) or enable services such as commenting on a blog. We use these cookies e.g. to identify visitor across devices and visits to optimize chat-box function on the web-site or to remember user’s language version of website.
Performance cookies
Performance cookies collect information about how visitors use a website, for instance which pages visitors go to most often, and if they get error messages from web pages. These cookies don’t collect information that identifies a visitor. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. It is only used to improve how a website works. We use them e.g. to control loading of Google Analytics script tag, generate statistical data how visitor uses website and to optimize website’s relevance towards visitor.
Marketing cookies
They are set by digital advertising businesses for the prime or sole purpose of managing the performance of adverts, displaying adverts, and/or building user profiles to determine the display of adverts elsewhere. They remember that you have visited a website and this information is shared with other organisations such as advertisers. On our website we use both marketing cookies placed by Overproof, Inc. and those placed by third parties (e.g. Google, d.adroll.com, LinkedIn, Facebook)
Some cookies remain in your browser during your browser session only, i.e. until you leave the website after what they are destroyed. These are called “session cookies”. Other cookies can remain in your browser for various times, depending on their set expiry date (hours, days, years). These are “persistent cookies”. Persistent cookies are used to remember e.g. log in details. Also, they are used to track visitor behavior as you move around a site, and this data is used to try and understand what people do and don’t like about a site so it can be improved. You can delete them any time before expiry date.
Please notice that by using this website, you agree that we can place these cookies on your computer/device for the stated purposes.
Managing cookies
Most browsers allow you to refuse to accept cookies and to delete cookies. The methods for doing so vary from browser to browser, and from version to version. You can however obtain up-to-date information about blocking and deleting cookies via these links:
Please beware that blocking all cookies will have a negative impact on the usability of many websites. Consequently, if you block all cookies, maybe you will not be able to use all the features on our website.
Contact details
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons. We advise you to therefore re-visit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies. For more information you can reach us at:

- Any information that cannot be disclosed through a conversation, a note or an e-mail also cannot be disclosed in a blog, on a web page or through social networking sites and applications.
- The Overproof Employee Handbook contains additional guidelines regarding Social and Digital Media, and can be requested from the Human Resources Department.

- Internet access is generally and readily available to employees and contractors during work hours, whether provided by Overproof, a third-party, or through the employee or contractor’s owned internet or mobile subscription. When on Overproof premises, or on location for Overproof or Overproof TEAM business, internet connection is primarily intended for business use in connection with the performance of the duties of the employee or contractor.
- Limited personal use of Social and Digital media is allowed during work hours, but this should never interfere with an employee or contractor’s job performance or the execution of a (temporary) assignment.
- Employees or contractors are not allowed to use Social and Digital Media for:
- negative content, comments or posts about Overproof which may damage Overproof or any Overproof clients.
- publication of confidential and proprietary information involving Overproof. No distinction is made between information on products and on individuals of Overproof.

- publishing about or entering into a discussion with a client or competitor without prior approval by Overproof.

- When an employee publishes an article or content on a website or other Social and Digital Media channels, other than Overproof owned websites or channels, about a subject that may concern Overproof, it should be clear that this is done in a personal capacity.
- When in the aforementioned case the employee has an online discussion and this discussion threatens to derail, or in the worst case has already done so, he/she should contact the VP Marketing and/or COO for consultation on the strategy to be followed.
- The employee is personally responsible for the content which he/she publishes on Social and Digital Media, in as far as it does not belong to his/her daily job. The employee should be aware of the fact that whatever he/she publishes will be public for a considerable period and may have consequences for his/her privacy.
- If the employee holds a management or other senior position he/she has an exceptional responsibility when using Social and Digital Media. In this capacity the employee will first and foremost be considered to be part of Overproof, also when he/she publishes a private opinion. The employee is therefore obligated to consider his/her position carefully when deciding whether he/she can publish in a private capacity.
- When in the slightest doubt about a publication or other possible interfaces with Overproof, the employee should contact the VP Marketing and/or COO immediately.

2.3 Confidentiality
During the course of work, an employee or contractor may become aware of confidential information about Overproof’s business, including but not limited to information regarding pricing, products, and new product development, software and computer programs, marketing strategies, suppliers and customers, and potential customers. An employee or contractor also may become aware of similar confidential information belonging to Overproof’s clients. It is extremely important that all such information remains confidential, and particularly not be disclosed to any Overproof competitors. Any employee or contractor who improperly copies, removes (whether physically or electronically), uses or discloses confidential information to anyone outside of Overproof may be subject to disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment or contract. Provisions of the Employment Agreement or a contractor’s Scope of Work, assignment or contract related to Confidential and Proprietary Information, Non-Solicitation, Non-Compete and Non-Disclosure supersede this Section.

3.4 Travel to and from Activations
- Overproof’s Travel & Expense Policy, which is available upon request from the Human Resources Department, governs employee and contractor travel requirements and needs.

- Employees and contractors are free to choose their means of transportation to and from activations, if this is in line with the Travel & Expense Policy.

- If you are involved in an accident with your privately owned vehicle, the cost involved for the repair or any claims are the responsibility of the employee or contractor.
- Employees and contractors are prohibited from driving if under the influence of alcohol or drugs which impair judgment, slow reflexes, distort decision-making and/or hinder coordination. Because both prescription and over-the-counter medications have side effects that can affect a driver’s ability to drive safely, whenever taking medication a pharmacist or physician should be consulted about being able to drive safely.
- In the exceptional case that an employee or contractor for any reason is not able to drive after an activation, it may be requested from, or determined by, an Overproof Manager or Director, to have the employee or contractor drive home by taxi or ride-sharing service.

It is the employee or contractor’s responsibility to retrieve his/her private car when safe and appropriate. Any parking cost incurred will not be reimbursable if the reason for the inability of driving was caused by alcohol or drugs usage.
- Overproof will not reimburse parking tickets, or any fees, tickets or fines that result from traffic violations or otherwise, including speeding tickets and traffic light violations.
FAILURE TO ADHERE TO THE CODE OF CONDUCT
If an employee or contractor fails to adhere to and/or violates this Code of Conduct or general norms and values, he or she may be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment or contract, depending on the nature, severity and frequency of the violation.
FINAL PROVISION
