This includes any Service specific terms for OM Automation, including documentation for permitted senders, supported formats, rate limits, and export options, which DG may update from time to time.

  1. Order of Precedence. If there is a direct conflict among documents, the following order applies, from highest to lowest: a mutually signed Order Form, this Agreement, the Service-specific terms, the Acceptable Use Policy, and the Documentation.
  2. Business Use. The Services are offered exclusively for business and professional use. By accepting this Agreement, Customer represents that it is a business entity using the Services for commercial purposes related to real estate listings, marketing, analytics, or related operations.
  3. Authority. The individual accepting this Agreement represents that they are an employee, officer, owner, or authorized agent of Customer with authority to bind Customer to this Agreement. DG may require evidence of such authority.
  4. Binding Effect. Upon acceptance as described above, this Agreement forms a binding contract between DG and Customer and governs all access to and use of the Services by Customer and its Users, including any use that predates a later signed Order Form, invoice, or payment. Continued use of the Services after any update to this Agreement constitutes Customer’s agreement to the updated terms.
  1. Use of the Platform and Services
    1. About the Services. The Platform facilitates the digitization, extraction, and management of property-related information contained in marketing OMs and other real estate documents. The Platform utilizes artificial intelligence (“AI”) and related technologies to analyze and extract structured data from uploaded content, enabling Users to efficiently store, search, and manage property information within their Platform accounts. The Services allows Users to upload OMs and other property-related documents in electronic format. Upon upload, the Platform’s AI-driven extraction engine identifies, interprets, and converts relevant property data, including but not limited to property name, address, type, size, tenancy, income and expense details, and other material deal information, into a structured, searchable digital format within the Platform. Extracted data is associated with the applicable User account for subsequent access, review, and management by the User. All extracted data is stored within the Platform environment and made available to the User through their Platform account. The Platform may display, organize, or categorize such data in various formats (including tables, reports, and listings) to facilitate analysis and workflow management. 
    2. OM Automation Setup. To enable OM Automation, Customer may authorize DG to provision OM Addresses and, if elected by Customer, to create or instruct forwarding rules and filters. Customer authorizes DG to receive OM Inputs sent to OM Addresses, to fetch OMs reachable via embedded links, and to process such content to generate Extracted Data. Customer remains responsible for adding or removing senders from distribution lists and for the accuracy of any forwarding rules.
    3. Confidential Handling. The specific data from an uploaded document is not available to any other user on the Platform unless that user has also uploaded the exact property document. 
    4. Disclaimer. The Platform does not provide legal, financial, appraisal, or brokerage services and is intended solely as a tool to assist Users in organizing and managing real estate information. The accuracy of AI-generated or extracted content may vary depending on the quality, format, and clarity of uploaded materials.
    5. Permitted Use. Subject to Customer’s and each User’s compliance with this Agreement and applicable Order Forms, DG grants Customer a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable right to access and use the Services during the subscription term for Customer’s internal business purposes in connection with real estate listings, marketing, and related operations. Specific features, modules, or functions of the Services may be governed by additional product-specific terms published by DG, which are incorporated into this Agreement. Use is limited to the quantities, features, and limits described in applicable Order Forms or account settings. The foregoing includes use of OM Automation to consolidate OM Inputs, generate Extracted Data for Customer’s internal business purposes, and export Extracted Data through supported export functions, subject to this Agreement and applicable limits. For clarity, cross-customer sharing is limited to Extracted Data; expressive content from OMs (including full OM PDFs and full-size photos) is displayed only within the uploading Customer’s account or as otherwise licensed. Where images are shown, DG may use thumbnails with source credits and links.
    6. Restrictions. Except as expressly permitted in this Agreement, Customer shall not (and shall not permit any User or third party to):

      22. export or redistribute Extracted Data in a manner that violates source terms attached to the underlying OM or media.

DG reserves the right to investigate violations and to suspend or terminate Customer’s access if Customer or its Users engage in prohibited use.

  1. Data Processing and Privacy. To the extent DG processes personal data on behalf of Customer in connection with the Services, the Data Processing Addendum (“DPA”) made available by DG is incorporated into this Agreement. The DPA governs the parties’ respective obligations under applicable data protection laws. Customer remains solely responsible for obtaining any consents and providing any notices required under law to permit lawful processing of personal data through the Services. Customer acknowledges and agrees that DG may process technical and usage data related to Customer’s use of the Services to provide, secure, and improve the Services. For Personal Information in Customer Content, DG acts as Customer’s service provider or processor and will process such Personal Information only on Customer’s documented instructions for the business purpose of providing the Services.
  2. DPA Application to OM Automation. To the extent OM Inputs contain personal data and DG processes such data on behalf of Customer, the DPA governs that processing. Customer directs and authorizes DG to process OM Inputs and Extracted Data as Customer’s processor for the purpose of providing OM Automation and related Services.
  3. Third-Party Services. The Services may interoperate with third-party applications, platforms, or services (“Third-Party Services”). DG does not control and is not responsible for Third-Party Services, including their security, functionality, or availability.

DG may modify or discontinue integrations with Third-Party Services at any time without liability to Customer.
  4. Reservation of Rights. Except for the limited rights expressly granted under this Agreement, DG and its licensors reserve all rights, title, and interest in and to the Services, including all related intellectual property rights. No rights are granted to Customer except as expressly set forth in this Agreement.
  5. Email and Anti-Spam. Customer represents that receipt of OM Inputs at OM Addresses complies with applicable laws and industry rules concerning unsolicited commercial email. Customer remains responsible for list participation, opt in status, and honoring opt out requests directed to Customer. DG is not obligated to contact senders, unsubscribe Customer, or manage third party list preferences.
  6. Email Ingestion Scope. Where Customer enables OM ingestion from email, Customer authorizes DG to access designated mailboxes using least-privilege scopes for the limited purpose of retrieving OMs and attachments and generating Extracted Data. Customer may revoke authorization at any time via in-product settings.
  7. Deliverability and Availability. DG does not guarantee deliverability, completeness, or timeliness of OM Inputs. Senders may change formats, links, or distribution practices. DG may modify parsing methods, supported file types, or rate limits for OM Automation to maintain service quality or compliance.
  8. Source Content. OM Inputs may contain third party intellectual property. Customer’s rights to use Extracted Data are limited by any applicable source terms. Customer is responsible for configuring exports and downstream use in a manner that honors those terms.

    4. Compliance and Regulatory Matters. Customer is solely responsible for compliance with all laws, regulations, codes, standards, and industry rules that apply to its use of the Services and to Customer Data. These include fair housing and anti-discrimination laws, advertising rules, consumer protection laws, privacy and data protection laws, record retention rules, MLS and association rules, state real estate licensing laws, and any disclosure or consent obligations. Customer will obtain and document all consents, notices, and authorizations that are required to collect, use, and disclose Customer Data through the Services.
    5. Third Party Inputs and Integrations. If Customer enables any third-party products, services, feeds, integrations, or other Third-Party Services, Customer is solely responsible for the selection, configuration, and use of those Third-Party Services, for the transfer of Customer Data to and from them, and for compliance with their terms. DG is not responsible for Third-Party Services or their security, availability, or outputs.
    6. Prohibited and Sensitive Uses. Customer will not rely on the Services for any purpose that requires professional licensure or specialized certification unless Customer has separately obtained such licensure or certification and has independently validated the suitability of the Services for that use.

    8. No Professional Advice. The Services, Documentation, templates, recommendations, analytics, and outputs are provided for general informational purposes only. DG does not provide legal, tax, accounting, appraisal, financial, brokerage, or compliance advice, and no information in or from the Services should be construed as such advice. Customer should consult its own professional advisors for guidance. DG is not acting as Customer’s broker, agent, fiduciary, or advisor, and no fiduciary relationship is created by this Agreement or the provision of the Services.
    9. Customer Systems and Access.

    12. Conflicts with Source Terms. If Customer Data or Customer’s intended use is subject to third party source terms, for example MLS licenses, photo licenses, or data provider terms, Customer will ensure that its use of the Services conforms to those terms. Where a conflict exists between such source terms and the Services’ capabilities, Customer will not use the Services in a manner that would cause a violation of those source terms.
    13. Remediation. If DG notifies Customer that Customer Data or Customer’s use is unlawful, infringes rights, or violates this Agreement, Customer will promptly remove or modify the offending material or use. DG may provide temporary technical measures, for example filtering or access restrictions, while Customer completes remediation.
    14. Authorization. Customer authorizes DG, as a limited technical service provider, to receive OM Inputs at OM Addresses designated by Customer and to programmatically retrieve linked content solely to generate Extracted Data for use in the Services. This authorization does not create a fiduciary, broker, or general agency relationship. 
    15. Rights in OM Inputs. Customer represents and warrants that Customer and its Users are authorized recipients of OM Inputs and that Customer’s direction to DG to process OM Inputs and generate Extracted Data does not violate law or third party rights, including email terms, website terms, listing services rules, or photographer licenses.
    16. Waiver of Claims Related to Customer Data. Customer acknowledges and agrees that Customer Data may include information, materials, or content that are subject to copyright, trademark, trade secret, privacy, publicity, or other proprietary or personal rights. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Customer hereby irrevocably waives and releases any and all claims, demands, or causes of action that Customer may have, now or in the future, against DG, its affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, successors, and assigns, arising out of or relating to DG’s authorized use, processing, or display of Customer Data in accordance with this Agreement, including but not limited to any claims alleging infringement, misappropriation, violation of privacy or publicity rights, or other interference with intellectual property or proprietary rights.
    17. No Claims Arising from Other Users’ Content. Customer acknowledges that other users of the Platform may upload, display, or make available documents or materials that are similar or identical to Customer Data, including OMs for the same or comparable properties. Customer expressly agrees that it shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim, demand, or cause of action against DG, its affiliates, or any other Platform user arising out of or relating to the inclusion, use, processing, or availability of any content uploaded by another user, even if such content is identical or substantially similar to Customer Data, or could otherwise be alleged to infringe, misappropriate, or violate Customer’s intellectual property, proprietary, or privacy rights.
    18. Regulatory Suitability. Without limiting Section 4.5 and 4.9, Customer is solely responsible for determining whether use of OM Automation is appropriate for its compliance obligations, including advertising, fair housing, privacy, data retention, and records management. Customer will apply human review where required.
  2. Accounts, Security, and Suspension
    1. Account Registration and Credentials. Customer must maintain complete and accurate account information at all times. Customer is responsible for safeguarding all credentials, API tokens, keys, and configuration secrets associated with its accounts. Credentials are for one natural person only unless expressly permitted by DG. Customer will promptly notify DG of any suspected unauthorized use of credentials or the Services.
    2. Security Program. DG will maintain an information security program that includes administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the Services and Customer Data. Safeguards include access controls, logical segregation, vulnerability management, and data backup procedures that are appropriate to the nature of the Services.
    3. Customer Security Obligations. Customer will implement and maintain security measures that are appropriate for its environment and the sensitivity of Customer Data, including multi-factor authentication where offered, least-privilege role assignments, timely deprovisioning of former personnel, endpoint protections, and secure network configurations. Customer will not store unencrypted secrets or credentials in fields that are visible to other Users or to third parties. Customer is responsible for any security incidents that arise from Customer’s configurations or from Third-Party Services that Customer enables.
    4. Security Incidents and Notice. If DG becomes aware of a confirmed unauthorized disclosure of Customer personal data within the Services, a “Security Incident,” DG will notify Customer without undue delay and will provide information reasonably available for Customer to meet its legal or contractual obligations. DG’s obligations in this Section 5.4 are further defined and limited by the DPA where applicable. Customer will cooperate in good faith with any remediation activities and required notices.
    5. Monitoring and Technical Protections. DG may monitor use for compliance with this Agreement, may apply technical measures to enforce usage limits and rate limits, and may log and analyze activity for security, fraud prevention, quality, and support. Customer will not interfere with such monitoring or technical protections.
    6. Suspension, Throttling, and Removal. DG may immediately suspend or throttle access to any portion of the Services, remove content, disable integrations, or restrict API calls if DG reasonably determines that: (a) Customer or a User has violated this Agreement, the Acceptable Use Policy, or applicable product-specific terms, (b) continued use presents a security, legal, or operational risk, including excessive load, suspected credential compromise, or data scraping, (c) Customer’s account is delinquent or has exceeded purchased limits, or (d) DG is required to do so by law, court order, or request of a governmental or regulatory body. DG will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify Customer of the basis for suspension where lawful and will restore access when the underlying issue is resolved to DG’s reasonable satisfaction. During a suspension, DG has no obligation to store or retain new data ingested through disabled features or blocked interfaces. 
    7. Emergency Action. In urgent circumstances that threaten the stability or security of the Services or the safety of individuals, DG may take immediate action without prior notice. Such action may include disabling accounts or network access that DG reasonably believes are involved in the threat.
    8. Reactivation. Following a suspension for cause, DG may require written confirmation of remedial steps, re-verification of domain control, payment of any outstanding amounts, and a reactivation fee before restoring access. DG may condition restoration on additional safeguards, for example stricter rate limits, IP allowlists, or revised role settings.
    9. Legal Process and Requests. If DG receives a subpoena, court order, or other legal request relating to Customer Data or account activity, DG may respond in accordance with law. Where legally permitted, DG will provide notice to Customer so that Customer may seek protection or other remedy. DG may disclose basic subscriber information without notice where required by law.
    10. Attribution and Notices within Output. DG may include security watermarks, source identifiers, or technical notices within outputs or media to help enforce security and provenance. Customer will not remove or alter these elements except as expressly permitted by DG.
    11. OM Addresses Security. Customer will protect any credentials or admin access associated with OM Addresses and forwarding rules and will promptly remove access for departed personnel. DG may suspend OM Automation if unauthorized routing, excessive bounces, or abuse is detected.
  3. Fees, Billing, and Taxes

Such charges shall be made in advance, either annually or in accordance with any different billing frequency stated in the applicable Order Form. If a charge is rejected or reversed, Customer remains responsible for the underlying amount, plus any associated bank or processor fees. DG may require prepayment or additional security for future orders.
