Welcome to QuestionPro, Inc. (“QuestionPro,” “we,” “us,” “our”) and thank you for using our products and services (“Services”). The following Terms and Conditions of Use (“Terms”) govern all use of the Services, so please read carefully.
The Services are offered subject to your acceptance of these Terms, our Privacy Policy, and any additional terms and policies (including operating rules, guidelines and procedures) that may apply depending on your particular use of the Services. (For example, if you use our Rewards feature, the QuestionPro Promotion Terms and Conditions apply.)
If you will be using the Services on behalf of a company or any other entity, you agree to these Terms on behalf of that entity and you represent that you have the authority to do so. In such case, “you” and “your” will refer to that entity. Additionally, since the Services are available only to individuals who are at least 18 years old, you represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years old and take full responsibility for the selection and use of the Services. These Terms are void where prohibited by law, and the right to access the Services is revoked in such jurisdictions.
In order to use certain features of the Services, you may be required to register for a Services account. You warrant that any registration information (such as name, contact information, or other information) you submit to QuestionPro is accurate, complete, and not misleading, and you agree to keep such information up to date. Failure to do so constitutes a breach of these Terms and may result in immediate termination of your account. To the extent you are able to select a “user name,” you may not (i) select or use a username that is a name of another person with the intent to impersonate that person; (ii) use a username that is a name subject to any rights of a person other than you without appropriate authorization; or (iii) use a username that is offensive, vulgar, obscene, or unlawful. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to cancel or refuse registration of any user name we believe violates these Terms, our policies, or the law. You shall be responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and other account information. Your login must only be used by one person; a single login shared by multiple people is not permitted. QuestionPro is not liable for any loss or damage from your failure to comply with this Section 2. We may use your registration information and any technical information about your use of the Services to tailor its presentations to you, facilitate your movement through the Services, communicate separately with you or publish the fact that you are a user of our services.

You are responsible for maintaining, protecting, and making backups of Your Content. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we will not be liable for the loss or corruption of Your Content.

You agree that all QuestionPro content and materials delivered via the Services or otherwise made available by QuestionPro (collectively, “Our Content”) are protected by copyrights, trademarks, service marks, patents, trade secrets, or other proprietary rights and laws.

QuestionPro provides its users with a free version for simple surveys or archiving purposes. However, this only contains basic functions that can be used to collect a limited number of responses.
In the event of a downgrade of a commercial license to a QuestionPro Free user account or a lower license level previously used functionalities only available to the higher license level will be removed and limited to the basic functions of the lower License. Full access to the survey data may, in the case of earlier use of functions from the higher license, will not be available. In order to get access again, it is possible to upgrade the license at any time.We may amend these Terms from time to time by posting an amended version in the Services and on our website. If you are a Free Account user, the amended version will become effective immediately as of the amended version’s Notice Date. If you are a new or returning user who registers for services on or after the Notice Date, the amended version will be effective immediately. If you are a current paying user of the Services, these Terms will continue under their original provisions for your original subscriptions, and the amended version will become effective at the start of your next QuestionPro subscription period (including any new subscription or any automatically renewed subscription). Your use of the Services after an amended version becomes effective will confirm your acceptance and consent of that amended version. It is your responsibility to check the Services or our website (regularly, if a Free Account user, or prior to the start of your next QuestionPro subscription period, if any other user) for amended versions of these Terms and to review any changes. These Terms may not be amended in any other way except through a written agreement executed by both you and an authorized representative of QuestionPro. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may amend our Privacy Policy or all other auxiliary policies at any time by posting amended versions on our website; the amended versions will become effective immediately upon posting.

At any time, upon Disclosing Party’s request, Receiving Party shall return to Disclosing Party all Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information in its possession, including, without limitation, all copies and extracts thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information to any third-party to the limited extent necessary to exercise its rights, or perform its obligations, under this Agreement; provided that, all such third parties are bound in writing by obligations of confidentiality and non-use at least as protective of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information as this Agreement.
Until one (1) year after termination of the Agreement, Client will not encourage or solicit any employee or consultant of QuestionPro to leave QuestionPro for any reason.
The failure of either party to exercise or enforce any right contained in these Terms, is not a waiver of either parties’ right to do so later. QuestionPro shall not be liable for any failure to perform its obligations in these Terms where such failure results from any cause beyond QuestionPro’s reasonable control, including, without limitation, mechanical, electronic or communications failure or degradation. If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that these Terms shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. These Terms are not assignable, transferable, or sublicensable by you, except with our prior written consent. We may transfer, assign, or delegate these Terms and their rights and obligations without consent. Both parties agree that these Terms are the complete and exclusive statement of the mutual understanding of the parties and supersedes and cancels all previous written and oral agreements, communications, and other understandings relating to the subject matter of these Terms, and that all modifications must be in a writing signed by both parties, except as otherwise provided herein.
