Throughout the document, these designations will be used interchangeably to denote the respective parties involved, namely EZP and the Client.

1. Working with Amazon and their accounts.

1. Clients authorize EZP and EZP's tools to access their Marketplace’s Selling Account(s) to be able to fulfill EZP's services. This includes but is not limited to:

3. Dealing with In-bound Performance alerts.
4. etc…

3. Client agrees, that the Client is still fully responsible for their account(s) and account settings and are fully responsible for all and any actions in their account, even if EZP have some level of access to it.

2. Client agrees to be responsible for maintaining:

1. an Amazon Professional Sellers account that allows EZP's API Tools to access their account.
2. an active Amazon seller account in good standing at all times.
3. Full Shipping & Listing rights and abilities with Amazon
4. Approved and Active SP-API access their seller account

EZP will inform Client when EZP's ability to perform any contracted service is affected, but it will be the responsibility of the Client to resolve such issues. Failure to maintain any of the above requirements may limit EZP's ability to provide one or more services, but it does not remove any of the Client’s responsibilities including due payment as per their contract.  It does not cancel any of the related services nor may it be used as grounds for a refund, it may actually incur additional Charges, by causing additional work, storage, etc… .

3. Amazon constantly adjusts/changes their platform and websites, Client will not hold EZP liable for such announced/unannounced changes and their effects and agree to report and give EZP the time necessary to make the needed adjustments to their systems.

1. It is possible that any changes made by Amazon may dramatically change EZP's ability to provide any particular aspect of the service.  EZP may discontinue some part of its services at any time. Client accept this risk and is willing to accept these changes in EZP's services. (just because it worked before does not mean it will always work that way.)

4. Client additionally releases and indemnifies EZP of any and all liability that EZP's interaction with any Marketplace, (including Amazon) may generate cause or result in.  Client releases EZP of all liability in all its forms including but not limited potentially lost sales, Amazon Account Status or any other collateral effects/outcomes related to any Marketplace, their related accounts and inventory.

2. Extension Product Access & Order information

1. Prep. Center may also provide a browser extension with its service, to modify and extract Client information from Amazon.com and possibly other marketplaces (aka. Client’s Buyer Account ).
2. Clients authorize EZP and EZP's extension(s) to access and store order information on the Marketplace’s site and service which Client purchases from.

1. Using software tools EZP will attempt to access and save their marketplace orders to be able to assist EZP's Clients in their order tracking.
2. The extension accesses their browser page(s) and acts with site/marketplace/account for the sole purpose of collecting and downloading their Orders to be able to eventually import them in EZP's system.
3. Client understands that the Marketplace is the one that holds this Order information. If marketplace in any way restricts EZP's ability to access this data or marketplace fails to provide or blocks such information, it is the full responsibility of the Client to provide it by other means.
4. EZP will do EZP's best to keep the order collection tools working but since EZP do not control the data source, EZP do not guarantee that the tools will always work, and EZP may decide to either fully or partially remove any order collection service and/or the support for such tools.
5. Client also understands that EZP may integrate with 3rd party tools and services to help gather this data. It is the Client's responsibility to contract  with, install/purchase/activate on their own accord with any of these 3rd Party tools if Client decides to use them.)

3. Client understands that any and all order data may be downloaded and that it will include all orders for the accessed account as controlled by the marketplace, even if the order was not intended for the EZP.  EZP’s tools will try to filter them out before adding them to the Client’s order Data, but this filtering is dependent on the Marketplace providing correct data to be able to filter the items appropriately. Clients will be able to manually mark orders as “Do Not Import” which will prevent the order from appearing in the system.
4. Client agrees that each marketplace (ie. Amazon) controls if and how this Data is provided and downloaded from their platform and that EZP’s tools are to assist in getting this data as possible, but it is NOT EZP’s Responsibility to collect such Data.
5. Client understands that it is the Clients responsibility to provide and verify any and all Order information provided to the system/Prep. Center. Even if EZP provides various tools to simplify the acquisition or entering in this data to the system programmatically and/or manually, it is understood that these tools may contain bugs and/or may cease to work at any time.
6. Client understands that other extensions and Security Software may interfere with the proper operation of EZP tools and Services, Client may need to remove/disable them if deemed incompatible with EZP tools.
7. Client understands that EZP’s Extension was built to interact, modify & move other extensions information, charts, etc… to improve their usability. Client assumes all Risks related to the interactions of the extensions and their potential effects.
   Extensions like:

1. Keepa
2. Can-i-List-It
3. BooksAnalyzer
4. Amazon Order History Reporter (AZAD)
5. etc…

8. Client understands that the original Developers of these other tools are still responsible for any information and maintenance, and errors of these extensions, and will not hold EZP accountable for anything related to them.  EZP will be solely responsible for providing a way to disable EZP’s interaction(s) with each extension to be able to isolate the tool.
   

3. Shipments:

1. Outgoing Shipment(s)

1. Once the items are picked up by the partnered Carrier, the Carrier is the responsible party for the shipment, even if the Carrier does not Scan the item(s) upon pickup.  The EZP only needs to provide a proof of shipment, of any order shipped.  Any lost/misplaced items are the responsibility of the carrier and possibly the shipper of Record which is not EZP.  EZP is not liable in the event of any Lost, delayed, mishandled or miss processed, either by the Carrier, Seller, Carrier, Driver, etc…!
2. Client will always provide a pre-paid shipping label for any items that Client wants EZP to ship.  Client may use the service Carrier and any potential Insurance that Client would want, as long as these carriers either normally pickup at EZP's location or Client included and paid for the appropriate pickup service fee for Client package at EZP's location, and does not require any out of the ordinary service or requirements from us, (ie. After business hours pick-ups.)  EZP is not responsible for any outgoing shipment fees, nor will EZP pay any additional fees that Client shipments may generate.
3. Our Service is limited to pack and ship out the item(s) with the provided label. EZP is not responsible for following any additional instructions provided with or on the label that Client provides.  The Client is fully responsible for verifying that the label is correct, with the correct postage, fees, services, insurance and meets the Client’s and carrier's requirements for the said package. The Client is responsible for reading and complying with these instructions prior to providing EZP the label, and assumes all risk related to the shipment and use of the provided label.
4. It is understood that EZP may use a used box with a minimum Edge Crush Test(ECT) of 26+ lbs/in or a padded envelope in acceptable or better condition to ship.  If any other type of packaging is required by the Client, special arrangements need to be made and will incur an additional fee.
5. In the rare case that EZP agrees to provide any additional service(s), including but not limited, to providing a Prep-Paid label, EZP may not be held liable for any loss or mishandling of the shipment.

2. When possible EZP will provide the Client with the pending amount due, the tracking # and a picture of the shipping label, as available. EZP does not guarantee how long the carrier will hold the package or return it to the seller, so EZP highly recommends the Client resolve this information as quickly as possible..
3. Orders should arrive together in a single separate package, as much as possible. Having to group, combine and/or separate packages, items, sets and/or orders is complicated and error prone and might generate additional service fees and make it complicated to verify all received items.
   Clients assume all risks and complications, and losses or additional work or charges caused by orders that are delivered in multiple separate or combined packages.

7. Service Fees

1. Our primary service fees are defined by Client's contracted subscription:
   NOTE: Not all plans are the same, so Client will be sure to review & select the appropriate plan’s for their use.

1. The Monthly Service Fee
2. Success Plans may include one or more of the below services.  No subscription will cover all possible service Fees, particularly Storage fees and any additional processing services such as but not limited to additional “Extended Repair”, automated Inventory management services or meeting(s), etc…

2. The fees listed below are the applicable fees for any items not specifically stated as included in the Client’s subscription.  Some fees are never included in a Subscription plan and are always billed separately:

1. Storage Fee(s):
   Storage Fees are billed monthly for book(s) at EZP for an extended period of time.
   Storage fees may be charged with & without an active subscription at different rates.  Any and all items at EZP's facilities may generate Storage Fees.  This includes but is not limited to  “Pending Client Review” and Items “Received w/ No Order”.
2. Additional “Prep” Fees:

1. Extended Repair
   If an item requires extended repair, more time to attempt to get the book to a sellable state.
2. Boxed Sets                - (see below & Extended Repair)
   The processing of any “Boxed Set” will automatically incur an additional fee.  These Boxes are normally damaged and require extended repair time to get them to a good sellable state. (Assuming that they can be reconstructed…)
3. Any bundled, Set, or Multi-Volume item
   These items, that have more than 1 “sub-item” in the “sellable item” will ‘consume’ more than one “prep credit”.
   As these items require, more time for receiving, verification, repair, and prep. They also require more Processing materials, labels and packing materials; but most of all they complicate the prep process as they are multiple items and may arrive in multiple shipments requiring separate processing and grouping them. Using the following schedule:

# of items	Prep Cost
2 - 4	2 x Prep Cost
5 - 7	3 x Prep Cost
8 +	(4 +  ⅓(Qty-8)) x Prep Cost Subtract Qty by 8, then Divide by 3, round up, then Multiply by 4 (ie. 16 items would be a total of 7 x Prep Cost )

4. Creating Pre-Paid Shipping Labels
   Clients should always provide Pre-Paid shipping labels, but if EZP ever creates a pre-paid label for the Client, the Client agrees to the following:

1. Client releases EZP from all claims related to these items.
2. Reimburse or Pre-Pay EZP for any related expenses that EZP may incur related to shipment
3. Understand and approve that EZP only creates Domestic Media Rate shipping labels for books and basic 1st Class Regular postage, WITHOUT ANY type of Insurance.
4. If the Client needs EZP to do anything else related to the shipment, the Client will pay EZP by the hour,  plus any used materials, as needed. This includes Package Tracking, Researching, any carrier issues/delay or lost package issues.
   

5. Item Drop-Off(s)
   Dropping off items at any location. This includes but is not limited to dropping off items at UPS Stores to return an item.
   To prevent these fees, always choose to return Client items with a UPS or US Postal Service Prepaid Label.  Any return info page that only has a 2D (square) Barcode, like a QR Code. will most likely incur this fee and delays..

1. Also note that these items have other undesired issues, like delays, and not being able to be tracked after being dropped off. The Client releases EZP from all claims related to these items.

3. Failure to Pay Provisions (Delinquent Accounts)

1. If the Client has any unpaid past due invoices, the Client agrees EZP may do one or all of the following:

1. Delay any Processing, Cleaning, Prepping, and or Shipping for any of the Client's items.
2. Restrict the Client's account permissions and abilities and/or access to any of EZP's services.
3. Stop providing any services to Client
4. Use Debt Collection services to collect payment
5. At EZP’s sole discretion, EZP may select and convert/claim any of the Client’s inventory items into a form of payment to cover any potential outstanding invoices.

1. The amount that will be credited to the invoice for each selected item claimed will be equivalent to 80% of the Purchase Price that the Client paid for that item.  EZP may choose not to accept any of the Client's inventory items as valid compensation as payment.
2. If there are no acceptable items available for payment at EZP’s control/location(s), EZP may “claw back” any and all inventory that the Client may have at any Marketplace, such as Amazon.  NOTE: Any Marketplace Fees that may be incurred by clawing back this inventory would be the responsibility of the Client.
   

8. Cancellation and Disposal:

1. The Time frames to trigger these and other actions are specified below.
2. EZP reserve the right to dispose of any and all of a Client’s inventory of a canceled Client’s books if the Client is unresponsive or does not give clear directions and the items/access necessary to complete the specified action, after attempting to contact the Client via their provided contact information. The typical actions are to either send the Items to a Marketplace (that EZP have access to; ie. Amazon FBA), to ship the items to a location of their choosing(Client must provide pre-paid shipping labels for each box after items are packed), or to Dispose of their items.
3. EZP reserves the right to cancel the Client’s accounts if delinquent after specified amount of time and possibly dispose of books left at the EZP if the Client fails to provide payment and remains as a canceled Client, all canceled Client provisions would apply.
4. Client agrees that disposing of any items includes the transfer of Ownership of the disposed item to EZP, so that they can "dispose of these unwanted inventory in a commercially reasonable manner" that would not generate additional fees to the Client. This could involve selling, donating, destroying, or otherwise handling the inventory, as EZP sees fit.
5. If EZP receives books or any other item(s) for a canceled Client, EZP may either receive the items as payment for outstanding amounts, or inform & invoice the Client for receiving and handling items.  Clients may request additional services for more information or individual book grading or further Prep, if desired. The Client understands full payment of any outstanding invoices must be made for any further processing. Items will be in “as received” condition unless additional services are requested.  Prep is not responsible for carrier services, including mishandling or loss of the package(s)/item(s), by their chosen carrier.   If a canceled Client fails to respond to EZP's requests, and abandons these or any other items at EZP for the specified # of days after cancellation or reception of these items, the Client agrees that Items should be disposed.  
6. If EZP decides to store the Clients items beyond the abandonment Date, at EZP’s sole discretion, EZP may charge Storage Fees.  For canceled Client’s this starts on the effective cancellation Date.
7. Billing and subscription charges may not be canceled until the Client completes the cancelation process properly and entirely. Additional Pro-Rated Fees may apply if the cancellation process is delayed by Client’s actions.

2. Client authorizes EZP's contracted service provider(s) to verify Client's information as needed.

5. Please note the following concerning EZP's reception of Client's mail and other delivered items.

1. EZP is unable to refuse any of the Client's mail, as per postal regulations.   There are exceptions, like if Client is no longer an active Client in good standing.

The Client shall promptly notify EZP of any known or suspected counterfeit products and take all necessary actions to mitigate any potential harm or liability to EZP.

Scope of Limitation:
In no event shall EZP, its officers, directors, employees, agents, or affiliates (collectively referred to as "Provider") be liable to the Client for any indirect, consequential, incidental, special, punitive, or exemplary damages, including but not limited to lost profits, revenue, inventory, data or use, including business interruption, arising out of or in connection with the services provided, whether such liability arises from breach of contract, tort (including negligence), or any other legal or equitable theory, even if Provider has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

The Client acknowledges that it is solely responsible for vetting and verifying its suppliers to ensure the authenticity and legality of any products sent to EZP.

While EZP may offer counterfeit checking services as an additional layer of protection, the Client understands and agrees that such services are provided without any guarantees or warranties, express or implied, regarding the detection or prevention of counterfeit products.
