Terms of Service


Last updated: October 12, 2024

Welcome from everyone at SyncApps by Cazoomi. We have built the SyncApps platform to help you improve your productivity and get more ROI from the solutions you use. Today, more than 25,000 companies, nonprofits, governmental organizations, NGOs, and individual subscribers use SyncApps. We are thankful for all your support.

We are quite a big community! While we know that everyone here is looking to grow their business (and we encourage that!), we can’t get to meet each and every one of our users in person — although we’d love that. So we have to have some Terms of Service to guide everyone and to make sure our Platform runs smoothly.

Think of these rules as community guidelines — something that effectively helps you and everyone else (ourselves, the makers and keepers of the Platform included) get the most out of SyncApps and enjoy every moment on the Platform.

Lastly, the Terms of Service are dictated by general rules and laws that all companies incorporated in the US and California have to abide by. Again, it means that you are protected and that so are we. We love fairness and equality around here!

First, a few definitions of the terms used:

When we say “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us” in this document, we are referring to Cazoomi, the mother-company of SyncApps, the Platform by Cazoomi.

When we say “Services,” we mean any product created and maintained by Cazoomi. This includes the entire SyncApps platform and any other connected services you may encounter on this website, whether delivered within a web browser, desktop application, mobile application, or another format.

When we say “You” or “you’re,” we refer to the people or organizations that own an account with one or more of our Services.

These Terms of Service may be updated at any time in the future. We won’t spam you with constant notifications of our updates. Just know that, whenever in doubt, you will find the latest version on this page. These changes are often minor, made to reflect any new additional services or new laws and regulations we need to abide by. Any major change will be also announced on the SyncApps blog.

Using our services (now, in the past, or the future) implies an agreement to these Terms of Service. This applies to our current products and services and any new services we may launch in the future.

Even if there are times when we do not exercise our rights described here or enforce the Terms, we are not waiving that provision or right. The SyncApps by Cazoomi Terms of Service contains a limitation of our liability.

Perhaps the biggest takeaway of this page is that we have the right to terminate your account if you violate any of the terms. We know a lot of organizations depend on our services, which implies a huge trust in our ability to discern who needs to have their account terminated and who doesn’t. We do our best to deserve your trust. If you want to know more about the people you are placing your trust in, you can read more about us here or check out our full story.
