Registered Agent and Business Filing Service
Accurate and Current Information
Because of various state requirements and statutes, we do need accurate information concerning the filings we perform on your behalf. We don’t sell your information and we keep all information that is not required on public documents private.
However, you agree that you are solely responsible for the accuracy, quality, integrity, legality, reliability, and appropriateness of your information. You also agree that the accuracy of filings which we make on your behalf depends on the information you provide and you agree to promptly notify us when any of your information changes. In the event that any information changes, you agree to notify us of that change immediately. Your failure to maintain accurate and up-to-date information is a material breach of our Terms, and is grounds for immediate termination of Services(s).
Service Providers
There’s a lot of logistics involved with registered agent services and sometimes we utilize professionals like couriers, attorneys and other third-parties to fulfill our registered agent duties. This item is to make sure you understand and agree that these service providers may assist us in providing you with registered agent services.
Accepting Service of Process and Other Legal Documents
As your registered agent, we need to accept a variety of legal documents on your behalf and upload them into the online account we provide you. You authorize us to receive up to 15 service of process, important communications, and legal documents of any kind (“Legal Documents”) on your behalf per year. We reserve the right, and you agree, that a fee may be applied to your account for Legal Documents received above the current 15 per year limit. You also acknowledge and agree that this fee may be subject to change as a result of our sole discretion and determination. You also agree that we can open, scan, upload and transmit the Legal Documents into your account in connection with providing Services to you.
Registered agent services are limited to the receipt of service of process as well as the receipt and forwarding of Legal Documents, and do not include the receipt of any general or regular mail or other items. Accordingly, we do not assume liability to you, or any third party, for loss of mail or other items which are not Legal Documents.
Regular Documents
Not all documents are created equally. The documents that we receive at our addresses on your company’s behalf which are not communications from the Secretary of State related to your company’s registration nor documents related to legal service of process are considered by us to be “Regular Documents.” Depending on which services you have purchased from us, there may be a limit on how many Regular Documents will be accepted by our office on your company’s behalf without incurring additional fees.
Additionally, you may be charged for any physical document forwarding requests that exceed your purchased limits. You agree to pay the fees that we post to your account related to any Regular Documents which we receive on your company’s behalf in excess of your purchased service limit. This includes any fees posted in relation to requests to forward physical documents.
While we strive to process your Regular Documents as quickly as possible, you agree that we are not liable for any missed deadlines, time limits or other time sensitive Regular Documents we may receive, regardless if such Regular Documents are within your purchased service limit or not.
Destruction of Documents
We do not perpetually retain the original copies of documents received by our offices. We expect that clients and their beneficiaries will diligently and promptly act to avoid any delivery of vital documents to our offices. In the event such documents or other mailings are delivered to our offices, we expect that clients and their beneficiaries will diligently act to request the original document or mailing to be forwarded to the client. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, all such forwarding requests will be at the client’s expense. All documents and mailings are destroyed after thirty (30) days following the digital scanning of the documents and mailings.
Electronic Signatures and Records
We’re a digital company and sometimes we need your electronic or hard copy signature, so we can file documents on your behalf. You agree to provide that signature to us when required.
Receipt of Packages
While we are thrilled to serve as your registered agent and receive service of process and legal documents on your behalf, we should not be receiving packages on your behalf. Packages arriving at our office will be refused upon delivery or returned to their location of origin if immediate refusal is not possible. In the event that neither refusal nor return of the package is an option, you will be informed that we have it in our possession. By using our services you agree that, if we receive packages on your behalf, we are not acting as a bailee or warehouse and owe no duty of care in the holding and/or shipping of packages. If you would like the package delivered to the address associated with your account, you will be responsible for all shipping associated with the shipment of the package. You will also be responsible for the insuring of the package. We will only hold packages for 14 days from the date of receipt and notification before properly disposing of them.
Document Storage Policy
It is optional for users to upload documents to their client portal and comes as a benefit to having an online account with us. In order to use this feature, you must set up an online account with us. We give you permission to use this feature so long as you comply with our Terms, including our Privacy Policy and other applicable service-specific supplements to our Terms.
You are not obligated to use this document storage feature. However, if you choose to use this feature, you agree not to upload or store anything to which you do not possess the necessary rights or anything that is illegal, dangerous, destructive, or illicit material. We may review your conduct and content for compliance with these Terms. If we, in our sole discretion, determine that you are in violation of these Terms while providing you with service, then we may terminate any and all services connected to your account. It is your responsibility to ensure compliance with these Terms.
Intellectual Property License
If you choose to use this document storage feature, then you agree to provide us with a worldwide non-exclusive royalty-free license to use your content, which includes any of your intellectual property stored on our systems, in order to provide you with such services and features, to improve our operations along with your experience, and to develop new technologies and services. To be clear, you will continue to own your intellectual property, while we will own any and all improvements made to our operations as a result of our use of your intellectual property as described in the following paragraph.
This license allows us to host, reproduce, distribute, communicate, and use your content in the course of providing you service — for example, to save your content on our systems and make it accessible to you and us, regardless of where you may be located. You also agree that we may sub-license these rights to our representatives, subsidiaries, partners, affiliates, contractors, and other third-parties that are necessary to provide you with such services.
This license to use your intellectual property lasts until such time that you take affirmative steps to actually delete or remove the content from your online account. Once we confirm such content is removed from our systems, our license to such content expires, unless in our sole and absolute discretion there is a lawful reason to preserve such content (e.g. litigation, disaster recovery, etc.)
Termination of Services
When any Service with us is canceled or terminated, you acknowledge and agree that:
Upon termination, we are released from any and all liability or duty we had or that we continue to have to notify you about lawsuits or any mail that we might continue to receive, even if our office address is still listed on any part of the corporate filing or if we are still listed as the registered agent; and
Upon termination, at our discretion we have the right to remove ourselves and our address, which may result in you or your company going into default and/or loss of licenses, good standing, or approval to perform work by various agencies; and
You are responsible to pay any and all outstanding invoices; and
You are responsible for any regular, non-discounted, and a la carte fees which may occur as a result of unbundling due to the termination of any Service(s); and
You are responsible for any invoices generated or fees incurred after the expiration of any free trial of any Service(s); and
Anyone who has access to your account has the proper authority to cancel Services; and
The termination is binding on the company(s); and
Upon termination, you waive any and all rights or claims of statutory damages or tort claims; and
You will NOT file a “change of address” request with the United States Postal Service (“USPS”).

Reasons for termination may include, but are not limited to: i) your failure to provide accurate, complete and current information for your account; ii) the inability to locate you after reasonable efforts are made; iii) your failure to pay for your Service; or iv) suspected illegal activity.
