TERMS OF SERVICE FOR WEBSITE AND SERVICE

The terms and conditions contained in this document ("Terms of Service") and the policies referred to herein contain the complete terms and conditions that apply to your use of the Gathera internet account aggregation software ("Software") as well as the provided by Esaya, Inc. (“Esaya”). When using the World Wide Web site located at http://www.gathera.com/ and other computer systems operated by Esaya (collectively, the “Website”), and the Software, you agree to these Terms of Service.

We may revise the Terms of Service from time to time, at our sole discretion and without notice to you, by updating the posting of the Terms of Service on the Website. Unless otherwise provided below, the revised terms will take effect when they are posted.

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY AS USE OF THE WEBSITE CONSTITUTES ACCEPTANCE OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS. IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, DO NOT USE OUR SOFTWARE. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE CONTACT SUPPORT@GATHERA.COM.

1.SOFTWARE
The Website and Software (collectively, “Services”) provide you with the ability to aggregate all the common tasks and messages from all your internet accounts via a plug in to your internet browser.  The Software User Interface will appear as a side bar in your internet browser.  The major functional components of Gathera include:

- Aggregate all your accounts.  You have the option to aggregate all your email (e.g. Yahoo!, AOL, Gmail and hotmail), social networking (e.g. myspace, facebook, etc), Instant Messaging (AOL, MSN, Yahoo! & Gmail), photo and other internet accounts (“Linked Accounts”) into Gathera.  To add an account, you will need to select it and provide your username and password for that account. Your username and password for each Linked Account will be stored on our secure servers.  For more information on how we safeguard and protect your information and privacy, please refer to http://www.gathera.com/privacy.  Once added, the Linked Accounts will appear in your browser side bar for easy access to the messages and functions within.  When the Software starts up, it will auto log you into all your Linked Accounts. 

- Aggregated Message Preview.  The software will periodically check each of your Linked Accounts for any new messages (e.g. emails, social network status updates, friend requests) and displace them within the Software.  You will be able to preview, open or detele these message and even respond or comment on them in some cases.

- Macros.  Once launched, the Software will provide streamlined access to most common functions in each Linked account.  For example, in email Linked Accounts, if you click on the reply link within the Software, it will auto log you into the email account and navigate to the reply page.  If you wish to compose a new message, the Software will auto log you into the account and navigate to the compose message page.

- Aggregate all your contacts.  Once your accounts are aggregated, the Software will also display a compiled view of all your contacts across all your accounts.  You will be able to add, edit or delete contacts from any of your accounts.

- Invite your Friends.  Every time you add a Linked Account, you may be provided the option to invite your contacts in that account to join you on the Gathera network.  This will be sent via an email, IM or a private message (“Invite Message”) in the social network depending on the account that is being added.

Additional information on the functional components within Gathera is available at http://www.gathera.com/.
