2. Terms of Use Agreement

This Agreement constitutes a legal agreement between you, the user of the Services, and SA.COM (or "we" or "us"), a private, for-profit company that is unaffiliated with any government agency. In order to access and use the Services, you, the user, must accept and agree to be bound by, without exception, all of the terms, conditions and notices contained in this Agreement. If you do not accept all of the terms, conditions and notices as stated in this Agreement, you may not use or access the Services.

You represent to us that you have the ability and the authority to (a) agree to be bound by these Terms of Use; and (b) provide the personal information requested by SA.COM in connection with the Services. The Services are not intended for use by children. You represent to us that you are eighteen (18) years of age or older. If you are under the age of 18, your parent or legal guardian must agree to the terms of this Agreement on your behalf.

You acknowledge and agree that you must (a) provide for your own access to the World Wide Web and pay any service fees associated with such access; and (b) provide all equipment necessary for you to make such connection to the World Wide Web, including a computer and modem or other access device.

3. Description of Services; Disclaimers

Our Services are dependent upon information provided by you.

1. By using our Services, you acknowledge and agree that any Services provided to you by SA.COM are limited to consultation regarding the student aid process, including estimating the total and net costs of attending a particular college and providing guidance on how to pay for college. You further acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for verifying the exact student aid policies of your state and/or educational institution with student aid administrators to determine procedures, requirements, and deadlines, and for complying with those policies.
2. By using our Services, you warrant and represent that all information provided to SA.COM, its agents, and employees will be true, accurate, and correct.
3. You understand and agree that use of the Services does not guarantee that you will receive student aid of an amount either estimated or unestimated, nor does SA.COM directly or indirectly make any representation or offer any guarantee that use of our Services will result in a student aid award or in a student aid award that exceeds your individual student aid eligibility. Actual student aid eligibility and award packages are determined by federal and state agencies and the student aid offices of individual educational institutions, and are beyond SA.COM's control.
4. You acknowledge that the information provided by SA.COM, in connection with the Services provided hereunder, may be based upon data and materials obtained from third parties. Estimates and planning ranges provided by SA.COM either verbally or in reports are based on (a) historical and current data available from a wide variety of sources; and (b) information that has been provided by you. Estimates should be used as a guide to assist a user in understanding possible ranges for student aid and in the selection of appropriate colleges. While all care has been taken to produce valid estimates that are based on the information provided to us by you, federal and state agencies, nonprofit entities, and postsecondary institutions, such information is subject to change without notice, potentially rendering these estimates invalid. This information is subject to change based on a variety of factors, including federal and state legislation changes, federal and state regulatory changes from administrative agencies (e.g., U.S. Department of Education and state higher education authorities), changes in Title IV eligibility at institutions, and/or changes in the financial aid awarding techniques at institutions. SA.COM periodically reviews the contents of, and information provided through, the Services and makes reasonable efforts to consistently provide users with accurate, up-to-date information. While SA.COM believes the information contained on or provided through the Services to be accurate and factual, it will not be reviewed or approved by SA.COM, federal agencies, state agencies, lenders, educational institutions, or other entities involved in the student aid industry. SA.COM agrees to use reasonable efforts to provide you with third-party information that reflects the information as it is received by SA.COM. Information contained on or provided through the Services should not be considered legal, financial, or other professional advice.
5. Estimates and planning ranges provided by SA.COM either verbally or in reports are NOT (a) a guarantee of the type and amount of aid a student is going to receive for any particular academic year; or (b) a bargaining tool to try to receive a more favorable financial aid award package from a college or institution.
6. Because we do not independently verify the accuracy of information provided to us by you and other students or their parents, and because rules and regulations do change, we do not guarantee that the Services and information that we provide in connection therewith will be accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free.
7. Should SA.COM determine that the quality of the information you provided is inadequate for us to provide the Services you purchased, SA.COM will use commercially reasonable efforts to contact you to gather the information required for providing said Services. You agree to respond to SA.COM's requests for additional information in a prompt and timely manner. However, if SA.COM is unable to contact you by e-mail, telephone, or mail, or if you fail to provide the information requested in a prompt and timely manner, then SA.COM reserves the right to cease providing any additional Services to you, and no refund will be provided.

4. Privacy Statement

Any information provided by you or gathered by us or third parties during any use of the Services is subject to the terms of our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated herein by  reference. We encourage you to periodically read our Privacy Policy.

5. Fees, Payments, Billing and Cancellation

We reserve the right to change our fees at any time. SA.COM may change the fees and charges then in effect, or add new fees or charges, by giving you advance notice. If you want to use a different credit card or there is a change in credit card validity or expiration date, you must follow the procedures outlined in the Privacy Policy for changing your personal information. You are responsible for any fees or charges incurred to access the Services through an Internet access provider or other third-party service.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any cause of action with respect to this Agreement and your rights and obligations must be submitted for arbitration, pursuant to Section 22, within one (1) year after the cause of action; otherwise, the cause shall be barred, provided that either party may seek injunctive or equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction.

This Agreement, the Privacy Policy, any operating rules, policies, or procedures that may be posted from time to time by SA.COM on the Site, and any modifications to the foregoing constitute the entire agreement between you and SA.COM and supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications, promises, and proposals, whether oral, written, or electronic, between you and SA.COM with respect to the Services associated with it. In the event of any conflict between foreign laws, rules, and regulations and those of the United States, the laws, rules, and regulations of the United States shall govern. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods will not apply to these Terms.

The failure of SA.COM to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the Terms of Use is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties' intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of the Terms of Use shall remain in full force and effect. A printed version of this Agreement and of any notice given in electronic form shall be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to this Agreement, to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form.

Sections 1–4, 7, 14–16, and 19–25 shall survive termination of these Terms of Use.

22. Arbitration

All disputes, controversies, or claims arising out of or relating to these Terms of Use will be resolved through binding arbitration conducted in Sacramento, California, in accordance with: (a) the Federal Arbitration Act; (b) the then-current commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association (the "AAA"); and (c) these Terms of Use. The terms set forth in these Terms of Use will control in the event of any inconsistency between such terms and the AAA rules. The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator reasonably familiar with the technology and business covered by these Terms of Use, selected by mutual agreement of the parties. If the parties fail to select an arbitrator within thirty (30) days following the date of either party's notice of demand to conduct arbitration, then the AAA will appoint an arbitrator in accordance with its rules. The award of the arbitrator will be in writing, setting forth findings of fact and conclusions of law. Judgment on the arbitrator's award will be final and binding upon the parties and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator's fees will be shared equally by the parties, and each party will bear its own costs and attorneys' fees. All papers, documents, or evidence, whether written or oral, filed with or presented in connection with the arbitration proceeding will be deemed by the parties and by the arbitrator to be confidential information.
