Last Modified: March 28, 2022
Acceptance of the Terms of Use
These terms of use are entered into between You and Zale Solar, LLC (“Company,” “we,” or “us”). The following terms, together with any documents they expressly incorporate by reference (collectively, “Terms of Use”), govern your access to and use of www.zalesolar.com, including any content, functionality, and services offered on or through www.zalesolar.com (the “Website”), whether as a guest or a registered user.
Please read the Terms of Use carefully before you start to use the Website. By using the Website or by clicking to accept or agree to the Terms of Use when this option is made available to you, you accept and agree to be bound and abide by these Terms of Use. If you do not want to agree to these Terms of Use, you must not access or use the Website.
This Website is offered and available to users who are 18 years of age or older and a licensed real estate or mortgage professional (if required by the laws of your jurisdiction). By using this Website, you represent and warrant that you are of legal age to form a binding contract with the Company and meet all of the foregoing eligibility requirements. If you do not meet all of these requirements, you must not access or use the Website.
Changes to the Terms of Use
We may revise and update these Terms of Use from time to time in our sole discretion. All changes are effective immediately when we post them and apply to all access to and use of the Website from then on. However, any changes to the dispute resolution provisions set out in Governing Law and Jurisdiction will not apply to any disputes for which the parties have actual notice on or before the date the change is posted on the Website.
Your continued use of the Website after the posting of revised Terms of Use means that you accept and agree to the changes. You are expected to check this page frequently so you are aware of any changes, as they are binding on you.
Our Communications with You
Express Written Consent. By submitting your contact information, you are providing your express written consent to receive communications from us at the email address and telephone numbers you entered into our contact form, or that you later provide to us or enter into your contact page.
E-mails, Calls, and Texts. These communications may include telemarketing messages, through the use of email, landline phone, fax, cellular phone, and text messages (including SMS and MMS).
Autodialing. We may use an automatic telephone dialing system (or “auto-dialer”), which may employ an artificial or pre-recorded voice or “robotexts.” Your carrier’s standard rates and charges may apply.
No Purchase Necessary. Agreeing to these communications is not a condition of purchasing any property, goods, or services from us.
Revoking Consent and Opting Out. You may revoke your consent to receive communications at any time by replying “stop” to any of our texts, or by any other reasonable means. We will make a commercially reasonable effort to comply with any communications from you opting out but reply “stop” will automatically revoke your consent to further text communications, and we recommend that method. We may take up to 30 days to stop communications if you use a method other than the automatic reply “stop.” You consent to receive a final text message confirming your opt-out. You may revoke your consent to receive email communications by using the “unsubscribe” link in an email or by any other reasonable means. We will make a commercially reasonable effort to comply with any communications from you opting out of email, but “unsubscribe” will automatically revoke your consent to further email communications, and we recommend that method. We may take up to 30 days to stop email communications if you use a method other than “unsubscribe.”
Communication Frequency. How often we send you communications will vary, because the individual salesperson who communicates with you will determine it.
Your consent here also serves as your express written consent to electronic communications from us in the past.
You represent and warrant that:
· You are at least 18 years old
· You live in the United States (or Canada, in which case the Canadian consents below apply)
· You have not registered on a national or statewide Do Not Call list
· You are the account holder for the email addresses and phone numbers you provided, or you have authorization from the account holder to give this consent
· The email addresses and phone numbers you provided are accurate, and you will let us know if you release them to another person or individual
Our mobile service is available only in certain states. Certain mobile features may be incompatible with your carrier or mobile device. Contact your carrier with questions regarding these issues.
For Residents of Canada
In addition to the consent provided above, Canadian residents agree to the following provisions related to compliance with Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation (“CASL”), Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (“PIPEDA”), and Canadian provincial law including Alberta’ Personal Information Protection Act (“PIPA”) and Quebec’s Act Respecting the Protect of Personal Information in the Private Sector:
· You agree to the provisions governing use and disclosure of personal information that are found in our Privacy Policy
· Because the purpose of our communications include your interest in our services, our communication with you will continue until you revoke your consent or opt-out.
· Your personal information may also be transmitted to, used in, and stored in the United States
