This document outlines the terms and conditions (referred to as “Terms & Conditions”) that govern your interaction with DOTDAT™ and forms a binding agreement.
Definitions
“DOTDAT” refers to DOTDAT™, including all existing and future subsidiaries and affiliates. “Services” include this website and all related content, applications, features, functionality, information, and services provided. The terms “user,” “you,” and “your” refer to anyone who utilizes the Services in accordance with these Terms & Conditions.
Binding Agreement
By accessing, using, or otherwise agreeing to these Terms & Conditions, whether as an individual or entity, you enter into a legally binding contract with DOTDAT™. It is essential that you read these Terms & Conditions carefully before engaging with the Services. Any breach or non-acceptance of these Terms & Conditions may result in restricted access to the Services.
Amendments to Terms & Conditions
DOTDAT™ reserves the right to modify these Terms & Conditions and/or the Services at any time. Notice of such modifications will be provided via updates on this website or through the Services. The date of the latest update will be indicated next to “Last Updated.” Continued use of the Services post-modification signifies acceptance of the revised Terms & Conditions.
Mandatory Arbitration Clause
Terms & conditions include a mandatory arbitration clause, necessitating individual arbitration for dispute resolution. This clause precludes jury trials, court proceedings, or class actions of any kind. (see Section 15 for details).
1. Licensing
DOTDAT™ grants a conditional, non-exclusive, revocable license for website access and use per these Terms & Conditions. This includes a limited license to use the Services to prepare and submit Federal Regulatory Reporting (Report) and Beneficial Ownership Information Reporting (BOIR), as required by USDOT, FMCSA under 49 CFR, and FinCen under the Corporate Transparency Act.
2. Report Submission and Accuracy
While DOTDAT™ assists in the preparation and submission of reports, acceptance by USDOT/FMCSA/FinCen or compliance with 49 CFR/ the Corporate Transparency Act is not guaranteed. The accuracy of the information provided is the sole responsibility of the user. DOTDAT™ does not independently verify this information. You affirm compliance with all relevant laws, including data privacy laws, and necessary authorizations in sharing personal information through the Services. DOTDAT™ does not offer legal or professional advice.
Submission of a Report implies your authorization to act on behalf of the Subject of the Report. In the event of a submission being declined due to incorrect or mismatched EIN or SSN data as recorded by FMCSA or other governing bodies:
- Notification of Mismatch: DOTDAT™ will inform you via email at the address provided during registration or order placement. It is crucial to address and correct the mismatch to proceed with the submission process.
- User Response Requirement: You are required to correct the information and resubmit or update the submission within 30 days of receiving the notification. Failure to update the information within this period may result in the suspension of the submission process without a refund.
- Repeated Failures: If corrections are not made after three notifications, DOTDAT™ reserves the right to consider the service complete, and no further action will be taken. This completion does not entitle the user to a refund as the failure to provide accurate information lies with the user.
- Final Attempts and Closure: DOTDAT™ will make a final attempt to contact you via phone if the email notifications are not responded to within the stipulated timeframe. If no corrective action is taken within 45 days from the initial notification, the case will be closed permanently, and the submission will be considered non-compliant due to user inaction.
