Description of The Service and The Site

PartnerSpring provides online Business-to-Business introduction, information, and analysis subscription services for business globally, with a specific emphasis on the Information Technology sector. The Service and methodologies are designed to bring companies together through introductions, facilitated by e-mail messages called Reach-Outs (“Reach Out”) resulting from filtering and querying of user specified criteria.

PartnerSpring is not involved in the actual transaction or formulation of partnership between Members. For that reason all Users of The Service agree to be responsible for the legal and regulatory compliance of any transaction they enter into and hold Cincom harmless. Cincom makes no representation or assurance about such compliance.

Cincom makes no representation or warranty regarding a Member’s willingness to accept an Introduction or form a partnership. The decision to accept solicitations, introductions, or engage in conversations, within The Service or outside of it, is solely the responsibility of the individual Members.

Membership Subscriptions - PartnerSpring offers two membership options to suit the specific requirements of subscribing companies:

Listing Monthly Subscription FeeAdditional Monthly Subscription Fee for Additional Offerings
Base ListingNo Charge, includes Corporate ProfileN/A
Standard Listing$19.95 includes, Base Listing and and one My Partner listing (which is listing of your target partner profile, automatically run against the existing and new data entries$9.95 per month, per Additional Target Partner Listing

Fee based subscriptions provide 30 days access to The Service, from the date of purchase, for the service contracted. In addition to subscription services, PartnerSpring offers further value-add services which are charged for on a case-by-case basis and “Reach-Out” services, which are charged for on per incident, pay-as-you-go basis.

Preferred Placement – once available, for $14.95 per month users may request their company and/or associated offering to appear in the Preferred Listings section at the top of the page. This is not a guarantee the listing will appear at the top of the page, but just that it will appear among the other listings and offerings which have also selected this option.

A Reach Out is an e-mail message sent via The Service to another Member of The Site. Reach-Out per incident costs Users:

Profile Matching Service – as par of the Standard Listing Users will receive a notification whenever a new member registers, with a profile that matches the criteria which has been set in Users’ Profile describing the profile of their target partner.

Intermediary (“Partnership Brokerage”) Services - where PartnerSpring is engaged as the intermediary to facilitate the establishment of a partnership, a 2% point of margin is due to PartnerSpring on revenue attributed to the relationship during the first year of the relationship and 1% of point of margin on revenue attributed to the relationship during years two and three of the partnership. This fee is to be paid by the member engaging PartnerSpring as an intermediary.

Limitations of Use

Access to The Service is granted on a per User basis, with each User being associated to the company by which they are employed. A company is defined as an entity that is registered and files its own accounts in a particular country .

This first User to register from a particularly company will be provisionally appointed as the Master User. The Master User can relinquish responsibility and appoint another user, from the same company, as a Master User. A messaging service is provided to permit other Users from the same company to request the right of Master User from the Master User, with the Master Administrator from PartnerSpring being kept in copy if all such requests and changes to Master User status.
