Terms of Service

These Terms of Use, together with Parting Pro’s Privacy Policy, (collectively, the “Terms”) set forth the terms and conditions that apply to your access and use of the website of Parting Pro ( “we” or “us”) and associated services, including Parting Pro services that are available through the websites of our client funeral homes and crematories (together, the “Sites”), whether as a client, end user or customer of a client, or otherwise. Parting Pro includes all officers, directors, employees, consultants, affiliates, parent entities, subsidiaries, and agents. The Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you, whether personally or on behalf of an entity (“you”) and Parting Pro concerning your access to and use of the Sites.

For your protection and the protection of other users, we ask you not to share your Registration Information with anyone else.

You further acknowledge and agree that you relinquish all ownership rights in any ideas or suggestions that you submit to Parting Pro through the Sites. The Sites are protected by applicable copyright and other intellectual property laws, and no materials from the Sites may be copied, reproduced, republished, uploaded, posted, transmitted, or distributed in any way without our express permission. All trademarks and service marks on the Sites belong to Parting Pro, except thirdparty trademarks or service marks, which are the property of their respective owners.


6. User Content. You represent and warrant that you own or otherwise have the right to use any content you post to the Sites. If you believe that your content has been used in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, you may contact our Designated Agent.

You must provide the following information: an electronic or physical signature of the copyright owner or the person authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner; a description of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed; a description of where the material that you claim is infringing is located; your address, telephone number, and email address; a written statement that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; a statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the copyright owner’s behalf. Parting Pro has adopted and implements a policy that provides for termination in appropriate circumstances of accounts of users who repeatedly infringe copyright or other intellectual property rights of Parting Pro or others.


7. Indemnification. You agree that you will be personally responsible for your use of the Sites, and you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Parting Pro from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including attorneys’ and accounting fees and costs), arising out of or in any way connected with (i) your access to, use of, or alleged use of the Sites; (ii) your violation of the Terms or any applicable law or regulation; (iii) your violation of any third party right, including without limitation any intellectual property right, publicity, confidentiality, property, or privacy right; or (iv) any disputes or issues between you and any third party. Parting Pro reserves the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, and in such case, you agree to cooperate with our defense of such claim.


8. Termination. If you violate these Terms, your permission to use the Sites will automatically terminate. In addition, Parting Pro in its sole discretion may suspend or terminate your user account and/or suspend or terminate some or all of your access to the Sites at any time, with or without notice to you. You may terminate your account at any time. After your account is terminated, information and content previously provided by you will no longer be accessible through your account, but Parting Pro may continue to store such information and content, and it may also be stored by third parties to whom it has been transferred through your use of the Sites.


9. Modification of the Terms. Parting Pro reserves the right at any time to modify these Terms and to impose new or additional terms or conditions on your use of the Sites. Such modifications and additional terms and conditions will be effective immediately upon notice and incorporated into these Terms. We will make reasonable efforts to notify you of any material changes to the Terms, including, but not limited to, by posting a notice to our website or by sending an email to any address you may have provided to us. Your continued use of the Sites following notice will be deemed acceptance of any modifications to the Terms.


10. Disclaimers of Warranties. The Sites are provided “as is” and on an “as available” basis, without warranty or condition of any kind, either express or implied. Although Parting Pro seeks to maintain safe, secure, accurate, and well-functioning services, we cannot guarantee the continuous operation of or access to our Sites, and there may at times be inadvertent technical or factual errors or inaccuracies. Parting Pro specifically (but without limitation) disclaims (i) any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, quiet enjoyment, or non-infringement; and (ii) any warranties arising out of course-of-dealing, usage, or trade. You assume all risk for any/all damages that may result from your use of or access to the Sites. Parting Pro does not guarantee the accuracy of, and disclaims all liability for, any errors or other inaccuracies in the information, content, recommendations, and materials made available through the Sites.


11. Limitation of Liability. In no event will Parting Pro be liable to you for any incidental, special, consequential, direct, indirect, or punitive damages, whether based on warranty, contract, tort (including negligence), statute, or any other legal theory, whether or not Parting Pro has been informed of the possibility of such damage. Some jurisdictions do not allow the disclaimer of warranties or limitation of liability in certain circumstances. Accordingly, some of the above limitations may not apply to you.


12. Governing Law. These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict of law principles. To the extent that any lawsuit or court proceeding is permitted hereunder, you and Parting Pro agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the Delaware Chancery Court located in Wilmington, Delaware, or, if such court shall not have jurisdiction, any federal court of the United States or other Delaware state court located in Wilmington, Delaware, and appropriate appellate courts therefrom, for the purpose of litigating all such disputes.


13. Modification of the Sites. Parting Pro reserves the right to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, some or all of the Sites at any time without any notice or further obligation to you. You agree that Parting Pro will not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuance of any of the Sites.


14. General.


A. Entire Agreement. These Terms constitute the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between you and Parting Pro regarding your use of and access to the Sites, and except as expressly permitted above may only be amended by a written agreement signed by authorized representatives of the parties.


B. No Waiver. The failure to require performance of any provision shall not affect our right to require performance at any time thereafter, nor shall a waiver of any breach or default of the Terms constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or a waiver of the provision itself.


C. Paragraph Headers. Use of paragraph headers in the Terms is for convenience only and shall not have any impact on the interpretation of particular provisions.


D. Severability. In the event that any part of the Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the unenforceable part shall be given effect to the greatest extent possible and the remaining parts will remain in full force and effect.


15. Notice to California Residents. Under California Civil Code Section 1789.3, you may contact the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs in writing at 1625 N.
