Q: What if I fall below 4 matters per month?
A: Your account manager will call you to determine if you still require the software.
Q: How will we determine if you are searching exclusively with TriSearch?
A: The Software will programmatically detect non triSearch searches being returned to the matter. In this case we will notify you that you that this has been detected. If after consultation we reasonably determine that you are searching with an alternative provider, we will deem you are in breach of your contract and we may cancel the Rebate or terminate your contract with 30 days’ notice.
Q: What if I order a product from another provider that triSearch does not provide?
A: triSearch only expects you to search with us where we provide an equivalent product. If we don’t have the product your need, please tell us! We are always looking to provide new products and services.
Q: Will we just cut off access without contacting you?
A: NO! Your account manager will attempt to contact you on the phone and then in email before a final notice will be issued that you will lose access to the TriConvey service with a minimum of 30 days’ notice. As per the termination clause before, you will still have time to access your data.
Q: Can your search fees change without notice?
A: triSearch values transparency and we know our clients do too. The government / authority fees generally change once a year (generally June 30th). We generally review our fees at that same time. In both instances, we will notify you with 30 days of notice that fees will be changing. If you do not like the change, you will always have the option to end your contract, backup your data and use an alternative solution.
NOTE: In all cases, you retain all rights of ownership of all data. We will grant you access to the triConvey Software for thirty (30) days after termination of your Contract Term for the sole purpose of permitting You to retrieve Your data.
