Last Updated November 9, 2024

This End User Agreement (“Agreement”) governs the purchase and use of Kisi’s enterprise Software-as-a-Service platform for physical security, and is entered into between Kisi Incorporated (“Kisi”) and you, the end customer and user of the Products (“Customer”), either in connection with a purchase of the Products or use of the Products for evaluation purposes as part of a free trial.

The terms “you,” “your,” and “yours” refer to you, the user of the Site. The terms “Kisi,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Kisi.

By accepting this Agreement, whether by clicking a box indicating its acceptance, navigating through a login page where a link to this Agreement is provided, executing a Purchase Order that references this Agreement, or providing another form of electronic acceptance, Customer agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. If Customer and Kisi have executed a separate written agreement governing Customer’s access to and use of the Products, then the terms of such signed agreement will govern and will supersede this Agreement.

This Agreement is effective as of the earlier of the date that Customer accepts the terms of this Agreement as indicated above or first accesses or uses any of the Products (the “Effective Date”).

Kisi may modify this Agreement from time to time, including by updating terms, pricing, or features. Kisi will provide notice of any material changes at least thirty (30) days before the effective date of the modification ("Notice Period") by sending an email to the Customer's email address on file and by posting a prominent notice on the Kisi website. The changes will become effective upon the earlier of: (i) the end of the Notice Period, or (ii) Customer's continued use of the Products after the Notice Period. "Continued use" in the preceding sentence means accessing or using any feature of the Products after the Notice Period. If Customer continues to use the Products after the Notice Period, Customer will be deemed to have accepted the modified Agreement.

Reference is hereby made to the Kisi Master Services Agreement (“MSA”) located at http://getkisi.com/legal/msa; the terms of this Agreement are incorporated into the MSA. If a conflict exists between this Agreement and the MSA, the terms of the EUA shall govern for the specific conflicted provisions only.

4.2. Remedies. Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy and Kisi’s (and its suppliers’ and licensors') sole and exclusive liability for a breach of the Hardware Warranty will be, in Kisi’s sole discretion, to replace the non-conforming Hardware. Replacement may be made with a new or refurbished product or components. If the Hardware or a component within it is no longer available, then Kisi may replace the Hardware unit with a similar product of similar function. Any Hardware unit that has been replaced under the Hardware Warranty will be covered by the terms of the Hardware Warranty for the longer of (a) 90 days from the date of the delivery, or (b) the remainder of the original Hardware Warranty period.

4.3. Exclusions. The Hardware Warranty does not extend to any non-Kisi proprietary equipment or end of life equipment. These would include the door locks, components on the door locks, and/or any other physical access control system working on the same doors as the Kisi system. Non-Kisi proprietary equipment would be subjected to the warranty terms and conditions of the respective manufacturer.

4.4. Warranty Expiration. Kisi will not be liable for malfunctions on the Hardware once the warranty expires. You will need to purchase new Hardware if you need a replacement on any part of your Kisi system. You will also be liable for any installation costs associated with replacing your existing Hardware with a new one.

4.5. New Versions; De-Commissioning. In the event that a new version of the Hardware is released by Kisi, it will be made available to the Customer for purchase. The Hardware Warranty does not extend to devices that have been de-commissioned or devices that have reached their end-of-life. Kisi will be required to send notification of any intention to de-commission any Hardware.

4.6. Hardware Returns. Customer may return Products purchased directly from Kisi within 30 days from the date of the applicable Purchase Order for any reason. Thereafter, to request a return under the Hardware Warranty, Customer must notify Kisi or, if the Products were purchased from a Reseller, the Customer must notify the Reseller, within the Hardware Warranty period. To initiate a return of a Product purchased directly from Kisi directly to Kisi, Customer or Reseller must send a return request to Kisi at support@getkisi.com and clearly state details on where and when Customer purchased the Hardware, the serial numbers of the applicable Hardware unit(s), Customer’s reason for returning the Hardware, and Customer’s name, mailing address, email address, and daytime phone number. Kisi reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to approve or deny a Hardware Return under the Hardware Warranty. All Hardware Returns will be at your own cost and expense. To be eligible for a refund under the Hardware Warranty, all components of the Hardware must be returned to Kisi, and Kisi reserves the right to inspect all returned Hardware prior to issuing a refund.
