Subject matter
These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) govern the customer’s use of incident.io.
incident.io communicates with the Slack service ("Slack", which is offered by Slack Technologies Limited.) on the customer’s behalf. The customer must have a valid Slack account and must have agreed to Slack’s terms of service. Any costs associated with opening or maintaining the customer’s Slack account are the customer’s sole responsibility. The customer will provide incident.io with its Slack account information (the “Slack Sign-In”) when signing into Slack via incident.io (the “Website”). The customer consents to incident.io accessing the customer’s Slack account. incident.io will directly communicate in the name of the customer and in its own name with Slack, and the customer authorizes incident.io to act on its behalf in Slack. The customer is solely liable for any costs or damages that Slack associates with the Slack Sign-In.
Service specification
incident.io provides an online, incident management ("Service"). It is integrated with Slack as a Slack app, and also offered as a website.
To provide the Service, incident.io will access the customer’s Slack workspace. incident.io will receive webhooks for interactions the customer has both with the service and with Slack, in channels where incident.io has been added. incident.io will, wherever possible, store references to data within Slack as opposed to storing the data ourselves. Where functionality depends on us storing data, it will be stored securely and encrypted at rest.
No consultancy, training, trouble shooting or support is within the scope of the services offered by incident.io under these Terms.

An Account may only be used by one single person. The customer is entitled to create separate Accounts for its employees.
The person opening the account represents that he/she has the legal authority to bind the legal entity he/she acts for and provide the Slack Sign-Ins to incident.io.

- keep Account data confidential at all times and to do everything to avoid any third party getting hold of the data. In this respect "third party" also includes all employees of the customer that are not designated to use incident.io;
- immediately inform incident.io in case of loss, theft or other disclosure of the Account data to a third party or when misuse of the Account data is suspected, and to immediately change the password;
- allow the Account data to be used only by designated administrators that are specified in the registration procedure.

The customer will indemnify and hold harmless incident.io, its officers and directors, employees and agents from any and all third party claims, damages, and costs (including reasonable attorney fees) arising out of the customer’s use of incident.io in a manner not authorized by these Terms or in a manner that violate applicable law.
