THE RENTAL OF THE EQUIPMENT DESCRIBED ON THE FACE OF THIS RENTAL AGREEMENT (THE "EQUIPMENT") IS SUBJECT TO AND MADE EXPRESSLY CONDITIONED UPON THE FOLLOWING TERMS AND CONDITIONS AND THOSE SET FORTH ON THE FACE OF THIS RENTAL AGREEMENT (COLLECTIVELY, THE “CONTRACT). 

In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions on the face of the Rental Agreement and these Terms and Conditions, the provisions of these Terms and Conditions shall control as to the Equipment leased hereunder. 

(1) Lease of Equipment.  Leppo hereby agrees to lease to Customer, and Customer hereby agrees to lease from Leppo, the Equipment during the Lease Term of this Contract. Customer acknowledges and agrees that (a) this is a true lease under applicable any statute, law, ordinance, regulation, rule, code, constitution, treaty, common law, governmental order, other requirement, or rule of law of any governmental authority (collectively, “Law”); (b) that it does not constitute a sale; and (c) that Customer has not, by virtue of this Contract, acquired any right, title, equity, or interest in and to the Equipment other than its leasehold interest solely as a lessee subject to all the terms and conditions of this Contract. The parties further intend and agree that, if this Contract is recharacterized under applicable Law as a secured financing or a lease intended for security, this Contract shall be deemed a security agreement and Section 1 hereof shall be deemed to grant Leppo by Customer a lien and first-priority security interest in the Equipment and all proceeds thereof, to secure the payment of Customer’s obligations hereunder. Customer agrees to execute, acknowledge, file, and record any further documents (including, without limitation, UCC financing statements), and to do all such things necessary to ensure that such security interest is a perfected first-priority security interest under applicable Law.

Rental charges do not include any refueling charge, applicable taxes (as detailed below), transportation charges, or other miscellaneous charges, the amount(s) of which are disclosed on the face of this Contract. Unless specific terms of payment are set forth on the face hereof, rentals shall be paid to Leppo in immediately available funds and without any deduction, set-off, or counterclaim whatsoever.  If Customer does not pay any amount payable to Leppo under this Contract by the due date, Customer shall pay to Leppo a late charge equal to the lower of (a) the maximum amount allowed by Law; and (b) 1.5% per month (18% per annum) on the overdue payment, calculated daily and compounded monthly. Payment of any late charge does not excuse Customer from any default under this Contract.

(3) Taxes.  Customer shall be responsible for the payment of all federal, state and local taxes now or hereafter imposed upon Customer’s rental or use of the Equipment.   Customer will not take any action or fail to take any action resulting in a loss, deferral, recapture, or other unavailability to Leppo of any tax benefits to Leppo under applicable federal and state Law in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

Customer acknowledges that a refueling charge will be applied to all Equipment not returned with a full tank of fuel. The amount of the refueling charge may vary depending on the rate being charged by the store location on the date Customer returns the Equipment. Customer may avoid the refueling charge if Customer returns the Equipment with a full tank of fuel.

(7) Term; Return of Equipment.  This Contract shall remain in full force and effect until terminated with respect to all Equipment.

Customer personal property left in or on the Equipment upon expiration of the Lease Term may be considered abandoned, unclaimed property in accordance with applicable state Law.

(8) Encumbrances; Labeling.  Customer shall not create or incur to exist any mortgage, lien, pledge, or other encumbrance of any kind whatsoever upon, affecting or with respect to the Equipment, this Contract, or any of Leppo's interests thereunder.  No marking of any kind shall be placed on any Equipment except with the prior written consent of Leppo.  Customer shall not remove any current markings or labels and shall maintain on each piece of Equipment any identifying marks required by Leppo.

Customer will promptly notify Leppo of the occurrence of any loss or damage to the Equipment and will, at Customer's sole cost and expense, promptly replace or repair such lost or damaged Equipment. In addition, if the Equipment is returned to Leppo in a condition that requires extensive repairs to the Equipment, Customer shall reimburse Leppo for lost rentals during the period that such repairs are being made at a rate equal to sixty percent (60%) of Leppo's normal daily rental rate applicable to such Equipment.

(10) INSURANCE.  Customer shall obtain and maintain, the entire Lease Term:

(a) General Liability Insurance providing coverage for bodily injury (including death) & property damage arising out of the use, operation, and maintenance of the Equipment with limits of $1,000,000 each occurrence and $1,000,000 annual aggregate; and

Leppo shall be named as an additional insured and loss payee under these policies. The general liability policy should include an additional insured endorsement (CG2028–Additional Insured-Leppo of Leased Equipment). All policies of insurance provided hereunder shall not be excess coverage or co-insurance policies, but shall be primary and non-contributory insurance policies up to the stated policy limits. Customer further agrees that the amount of insurance available to Leppo shall be for the full amount of the loss up to policy limits of liability and shall not be limited to the minimum requirements of this Contract. In the event any policy provided in compliance with this Contract states that the insurance afforded to an additional insured will not be broader than that required by contract, or words of similar meaning, Customer agrees that nothing in this Contract is intended to restrict or limit the breadth of such insurance. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions shall be the sole responsibility of the Customer.

Customer shall deliver to Leppo proof of insurance required hereunder, namely, certificates of insurance or other evidence satisfactory to Leppo that shows that the insurance required by this Section 10 is in full force and effect. Failure of Leppo to demand such proof shall not relieve Customer of the responsibility to provide insurance.

In general, your Visitor Information means any information that identifies, relates to, describes, references, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer, household, or device.

Most web browsers, and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications, include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage, no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this Privacy Policy.

Leppo does not collect or process any data on the Site regarding the following: race or ethnic origin; political opinions; religious or philosophical beliefs; trade union memberships; genetic or biometric data; health or mortality; or sexual orientation.

Our Third-Party Vendors

Google Analytics is a web analysis service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”). Google utilizes the Visitor Information collected to track and examine the use of this Site, to prepare reports on its activities and share them with other Google Services. You can access Google’s privacy policy here: https://policies.google.com/privacy. DocuSign supports completion, signing and retention of the Credit Application.

Web Beacons

Our web pages may contain electronic images known as web beacons (invisible images often referred to as pixel tags or clear GIFs) on the Site in order to recognize users, assess traffic patterns, identify preferred content, and measure Site engagement. We may also include web beacons in our e-mail messages in order to count how many e-mail messages have been opened, for example.

Some of these web beacons may also be placed by third-party service providers to help determine the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. These web beacons may be used by third-party service providers to place a persistent cookie on your computer. This allows the service provider to recognize your computer each time you visit certain web pages and compiles anonymous information in relation to those page views, which in turn enables us and our third-party service providers to learn which advertisements bring you to our website and how you use the Site.

Log Files

Our servers log information about your IP address, your browser type, and the current URL you are requesting. This information is always provided by your browser and automatically logged. These log files are stored in a secure location and used in our internal analysis of traffic patterns.

Cookies and Similar Tools

Like many businesses, we also collect information through cookies and similar technologies. A cookie is a small data file that is written to a computer’s hard drive by a web browser. A cookie file can contain and/or automatically collect information, such as a user identification code or IP address that a website will use to track the pages and number of times you have visited. The data read from these cookies may be linked to personally identifying (PII) and non-personally identifying (non-PII) information. We may collect and use non-PII to help us improve our services, customize your experience and analyze use of our services. This Privacy Policy does not limit our use or disclosure of collected non-PII. We reserve the right to collect, use and disclose such non-PII to our partners, advertisers and other third parties at our sole discretion.

We and our partners may use cookies and similar technologies on the Site to personalize and optimize your browsing experience by: providing you tailored content, enabling social media features, safeguarding against spam and malware, analyzing trends, traffic, and user behavior, administering the website, gathering demographic information about our user base as a whole, tracking web and advertising analytics throughout the Site, remembering preferences and voluntarily-submitted information (e.g. name, email), performing location-related functionalities and analytics, participating in market research (e.g., website ratings), and educating Leppo about how the Site can continue to be improved. You may turn off cookies in your browser or have your browser warn you before accepting cookies. If you choose to turn off cookies, you may not be able to experience all of the features on our Site.

Cookies fall into the subcategories below.

Essential Cookies. Certain cookies are used for specific purposes that are essential to your secure use and navigation of the Site. Without them, Leppo may not be able to provide core Site functions and features to you, and the Site would not operate as well as you or Leppo would like. These cookies collect and use information such as your server preferences, single-session data and corresponding identifier, web beacons and log files, and other credential-related information. Essential cookies also help inform Leppo whether you require, or have already been served, an affirmative consent request in connection with our data policies. Essential cookies also include analytics cookies, which provide us data that allows Leppo to better understand its users and improve the Site based on what we have learned from that data.

Preference Cookies. Other cookies are used to collect and process information about your preferences and similar choices in connection with the Site in order to optimize your browsing experience.

3.                 Data Usage

Use of Your Information

We collect, process and disclose your Visitor Information only for specific and limited purposes. For example, to respond to inquiries received from the use of any contact forms on the Site, to assess and handle any complaints, and to develop and improve our services, communication methods and the functionality of our Site.

Our primary goal in collecting, using, and sharing Visitor Information is to enhance your experience on the Site, support the Site, and improve its features, performance, and other elements. We will not use your Visitor Information without a valid legal basis to do so, and we will only process your Visitor Information in a way that is compatible with and relevant to the purpose for which it was collected and authorized.

Your Visitor Information may be used for the purposes outlined below.

To Facilitate and Improve Our Services

To respond to general inquiries and to provide customer support when needed, we collect and/or use Visitor Information, including your first and last name, and email address. Additionally, your Visitor Information may be used to present the Site and its content to you, request feedback, and for any other purpose with your consent.

To Provide Communications to You

From time to time, we may provide e-mails highlighting new features, promotions, or content on the Site to those users who have expressly provided us with their permission to send such communications. For instance, we may communicate with you by email in response to your inquiries or send you service-related announcements based on Visitor Information you provide to us. We may also use your Visitor Information to send you updates and other promotional communications with your consent. If you no longer wish to receive email updates, you may opt-out at any time by following the instructions included in each communication (usually in the form of an “unsubscribe” link), or email us at optout@leppos.com to update your personal contact preferences. Note that unsubscribing from our emails will not prevent you from receiving transactional emails relating to support, or service requests.

As Necessary to Provide Information or Services

We may occasionally hire other companies to provide limited services on our behalf, such as handling the processing of information submitted on any contact form on the Site, the delivery of any mailings or correspondence, processing transactions, or performing statistical analysis of our services (the “Provided Services”). We provide those companies the information they need to deliver the service. In some instances, these companies may collect information directly from you and you will be notified of the involvement of the external service provider. Such companies are subject to agreements that require them to maintain the confidentiality of your information and they are prohibited from using that information for any other purpose. We reserve the right to not track how you interact with any of the Provided Services.

Sharing of Information

You may be requested to voluntarily provide certain Visitor Information during your use of our Site. If you choose to do so, that Visitor Information may be shared with Leppo and its affiliates as well as business partners and vendors providing hosting and other web-based services for Leppo.

Leppo may use third parties to provide e-mail messaging, text messaging, account management and hosting services for the Site. When you sign up for services, we will share your Visitor Information as necessary for the third party to provide that service. These third parties are prohibited from using your Visitor Information for any other purpose. If you do not want your information to be shared, you can choose not to allow the transfer of your information by not using that particular service.

In the Event of Change in Ownership or Control

The ownership or control of the Site may change at some point in the future. Should that occur, we want this Site and/or Leppo to be able to maintain a relationship with you. In the event of a change in ownership, merger, bankruptcy or change in control of Leppo, your information may be shared with the person or business that owns or controls this Site. You will be notified as described below in “Changes to Privacy Policy.” Opting out of receiving information from third parties will not affect our right to transfer your information to a new owner, but your choices will continue to be respected regarding the use of your information.

As Required By Law

Leppo may disclose your personal information if required to do so by law, such as to comply with a subpoena or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to conform to the edicts of the law, investigate fraud or comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process served on Leppo, or to protect and defend the rights or property of Leppo.

Legal Bases for Data Usage and/or Disclosure

Leppo will not process your Visitor Information without a lawful basis to do so. In general, Leppo will process your Visitor Information on any of the following legal bases:

• Consent – We may process your data if you have given us specific consent to use your personal information for a specific purpose.

• Legitimate Interests – We may process your data when it is reasonably necessary to achieve our legitimate business interests.

• Performance of a Contract – Where we have entered into a contract with you, we may process your personal information to fulfill the terms of our contract.

• Legal Obligations – We may disclose your information where we are legally required to do so in order to comply with applicable law, governmental requests, a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process, such as in response to a court order or a subpoena (including in response to public authorities to meet national security or law enforcement requirements).

• Vital Interests – We may disclose your information where we believe the processing is necessary in order to protect your vital interests or those vital interests of another natural person.

More specifically, we may need to process your data or share your personal information in the following situations:

• Business Transfers – We may share or transfer your information in connection with, or during negotiations of, any merger, sale of company assets, financing, or acquisition of all or a portion of our business to another company.

When we collect and use your personal data for the purposes mentioned above or for other purposes, we will inform you before or at the time of collection. Where appropriate, we will ask for your consent to process your Visitor Information. Where you have given consent for processing activities, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time.

4.                   Data Protection

How We Protect Your Information

Leppo takes the security of your Visitor Information very seriously. We take every effort to protect your personal information from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorized access, modification or disclosure. Our measures include implementing appropriate access controls, investing in the latest information security capabilities to protect the IT environments we leverage, and ensuring we encrypt and anonymize personal data wherever possible. Access to your Visitor Information is only permitted among our employees and agents on a need-to-know basis and subject to strict contractual confidentiality obligations when processed by third parties.

Your information may be stored on servers owned and operated by Leppo and its affiliates or by cloud/software service providers (“SaaS Services”) located in the United States. Our SaaS Services are committed to: (i) using industry-standard physical, electronic, and organizational safeguards to protect information against loss or theft as well as unauthorized access and disclosure; (ii) protecting individuals’ privacy; and (iii) employing security techniques to protect such data from unauthorized access. We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the Visitor Information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. When entering Visitor Information on the Site, look for the secure icon (typically an image of a lock) and ‘https’ designation in the address box of your browser window that indicates you are on a secure page.

However, it must be noted that “perfect security” does not exist today. If you are concerned that your privacy may have been breached, please contact us using the contact information provided at the bottom of this Privacy Policy.

5.                   Data Retention

How Long We Keep Your Information

We will only keep your Visitor Information for as long as it is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law (such as tax, accounting or other legal requirements). No purpose in this policy will require us to keep your personal information for longer than reasonably necessary.

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible. We will actively review the personal data we hold and delete it securely, or in some cases, anonymize it when there is no longer a legal, business, or consumer need for it to be retained.

6.                   Privacy Rights and Considerations

Party Policies

You should review the privacy policies of any third parties before you provide any personal information or complete any transaction with such parties. Please contact each third-party provider directly if you have any questions about their privacy policies, or the information they require for you to complete any transaction.
