Appendix B - Terms & Conditions

1. 1.This City of Minneapolis Supplier Portal User Agreement is between the City of Minneapolis and you, the supplier. The parties acknowledge and agree as follows: By clicking "Submit" and finalizing your registration in the Supplier Portal, you represent and warrant that (i) the registration information that you provided regarding the supplier, including but not limited to the supplier's legal business name, address, and Tax Identification Number is accurate and true (said business shall be referred to as "Supplier"); and (ii) you are duly authorized to act on behalf of Supplier. By responding to this agreement, You, or Supplier are all authorized to represent, bind, and obligate the entity identified as the Supplier and Tax Identification Number provided by the registrant.

2. In accordance with that authority, by clicking "Submit," as Supplier's authorized representative, you agree to submit this Agreement, along with the registration information, electronically on behalf of Supplier. Further, you acknowledge and agree that providing the registration information, identifying yourself as someone authorized to act on behalf of the Supplier and clicking "Submit" manifests your intent to electronically sign this Agreement and that said electronic signature is thereby attached to and legally binds the Supplier to this Agreement.

3. The Supplier Portal enables users to submit responses to solicitations, including the uploading of documents in support of your responses and to provide information through data entry into the Supplier Portal. The timing of such submissions, including document transfer, if any, is captured by the Supplier Portal, not your own computer or network clock. If you submit information via the Supplier Portal, in any form, you may do so on the condition that what you submit is not obscene, illegal, threatening, or defamatory and so long as what you submit does not invade the privacy or infringe the intellectual property of a third party. Further, you agree not to submit software viruses, mass mailings, chain letters, or any form of spam. You agree not to use a false e-mail address, impersonate any person or entity, or otherwise mislead the City as to the origin of the information. When submitting responses, you agree that they will remain valid for the minimum time period required by the solicitation. By submitting information in any form, you grant the City a nonexclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, and fully sub-licensable right to reproduce, use, modify, publish, adapt, translate, create derivative works from, distribute, and display such content throughout the world in any media, unless it is appropriately marked as proprietary information. By submitting information, you also represent and warrant that the content is accurate; you own or have permission to use the content that you submit; and that use of the content will not cause injury to any person or entity.

4. Suppliers may use the "My Categorizations" feature which is meant to provide certain efficiencies and conveniences. However, identifying your categories during the registration process does not guarantee that the Supplier will receive all relevant bids and does not relieve any interested Supplier of the responsibility to locate opportunities or comply with the City's procurement process and requirements. An understanding of the system's capabilities and limitations is the key to a correct and successful transaction and to successful notification of solicitations that you wish to receive. The City is not responsible or liable, and you may not receive email notifications of the actual opportunities you seek, and your transaction may not be processed if: a. you submit inaccurate, incomplete or overly narrow data or information in your subscriber profile; b. you fail to modify and correct such inaccurate, incomplete, overly narrow or outdated information; c. you enter, maintain or fail to update erroneous or outdated email address(es) and contact information including subscriber name, taxpayer identification number, address and telephone number; d. you rely solely on City email notifications which require an exact match between the category assigned by the City to the opportunity and those in your supplier/bidder profile; or

e. you have technical problems, including those with your computer, network or internet service provider (ISP), which cause e-mail communications (sent to/from your computer, network or ISP) to be lost or rejected by any means including email or spam filtering problems with your ISP, computer or computer network.
