Welcome and thank you for your interest in Sero!. The Agreement described below is a binding contract. Please read it carefully before using Sero!.
These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) are between us and you:
Sero! has several policies (the “Policies”) that form these Terms:
The “Agreement” refers to these Terms and the Policies together.
The general idea of this Agreement is that we grant you a license to use the Services, and in return you pay us (when required) and agree to abide by our terms and policies. Your failure to abide by your obligations under these policies constitutes grounds for suspension or termination of your account and revocation of your access to the Services.
In this Agreement:
You acknowledge and agree that, as provided in greater detail in this Agreement:
This Agreement takes effect when you register your account, sign a contract that incorporates these terms by reference, or, if earlier, when you use any of the Services (the “Effective Date”).
We provide Sero! Services pursuant to a Service Level Agreement.
By agreeing to this Agreement, you represent and warrant to us that: (a) you are at least eighteen (18) years of age or have the expressed consent of your legal guardian to use Sero!; (b) you have not previously been suspended or removed from the Services; and (c) your registration and your use of the Services is in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. If you are using the Services on behalf of an entity, organization, or company, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that organization to this Agreement and you agree to be bound by this Agreement on behalf of that organization. Sero! may, in its sole discretion, refuse to offer the Services to any person or entity, and may change its eligibility criteria at any time.
To access the Services, you must create an Sero! Individual Assessor or Organizational user account or Taker user account.
When you register for an account, you may be required to provide us with some information about yourself, such as your email address and name. You agree that the information you provide to us is accurate and that you will keep it accurate at all times. You are responsible for all activities that occur under your accounts, regardless of whether the activities are undertaken by you, your employees, your End Users, or a third party (including your contractors or agents). Organizational account holders may create additional user accounts for users within their organization.
Each Sero! user account is protected by credentials. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your credentials. Sero! and our affiliates are not responsible for unauthorized access to your account, except to the extent caused by our breach of this Agreement. If you do not abide by your obligations, or if you violate our Acceptable Use Policy, we may determine your account to be not in good standing and may take Remedial Action pursuant to relevant sections. Good standing is determined at Sero!’s sole discretion.
SERO! RESERVES THE RIGHT TO DISABLE ANY USER’S ACCESS TO ANY PART OF THE SERVICE, AND TO TERMINATE ANY USER’S ACCOUNT.
You may terminate your account and this Agreement at any time in accordance with applicable sections.
A. Your obligations include, but are not limited to, the following:
B. Unauthorized uses. You will not violate, and will not allow third parties under your control to violate, our Acceptable Use Policy or other policies.
A. Your privacy. Please read our Privacy Policy.
B. Your users’ privacy. You are responsible for protecting the privacy and legal rights of your End Users. Your obligations include but are not limited to:
A. Payments and pricing. You incur fees and charges based on your use of the Services. We bill as indicated in the Sero! Billing Policy or your purchase order, as applicable. We may invoice you in advance if we determine that your account is at risk of non-payment. Any outstanding balance becomes immediately due and payable upon termination of this Agreement for any reason.
All amounts payable are denominated in United States dollars, and you agree to pay all such amounts in United States dollars.
We may change our Billing Policy. In the event we do so, we will give you 30 days notice before the beginning of the billing cycle during which the revised policy will be applied.
Late payments may bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (or the highest rate permitted by law, if less). Charges are exclusive of taxes. You are responsible for paying all reasonable expenses and attorneys fees we incur collecting late payments. We reserve the right to discontinue the provision of the Services to you for any late payments.
We reserve the right to take Remedial Action if you are in breach of this Agreement, including if you are delinquent on your payment obligations by more than 15 days.
Fees are based on our measurements of your organizational size and/or Individual use. Our determination is final.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, you waive all claims relating to charges unless claimed within 60 days after the charge (this does not affect your credit card issuer rights). To the fullest extent permitted by law, refunds (if any) are at our discretion and only in the form of credit for the Services. Nothing in this Agreement obligates Sero! to extend credit to any party.
B. Taxes. You are responsible for paying all taxes and government charges and will pay us for the Services without any reduction. In the event that Sero! is obligated to collect or pay taxes, those taxes will be invoiced to you, unless you provide us with a timely and valid tax exemption certificate issued by the appropriate authority for each jurisdiction in which you claim exempt status.
If any deduction or withholding is required by law, you will notify us and will pay us any additional amounts necessary to ensure that the net amount that we receive, after any deduction and withholding, equals the amount we would have received if no deduction or withholding had been required. Additionally, you will provide us with documentation showing that the withheld and deducted amounts have been paid to the relevant taxing authority.
Under some circumstances, you are obligated to suspend or remove Data from the Services and take remedial measures, such as if your Application is compromised or is being used to violate our Acceptable Use Policy.
In addition to your obligations, we reserve the right to suspend your account, suspend your access or your End Users’ access to the Services – i.e., take “Remedial Action”). Our right to take Remedial Action is in addition to our right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to relevant sections.
A. Your obligations. If you become aware that any End User’s use of an Application or data violates the Acceptable Use Policy, you will immediately suspend access to that End User and remove the applicable data to remedy the violation. If you fail to remedy the violation on your own, we will make a specific request that you do so. If you do not remedy the violation within the time period specified in our request (in no case later than 24 hours), we may take Remedial Action.
B. Our obligations. We will always try to resolve Acceptable Use issues within a mutually acceptable timeframe. We reserve the right to take unilateral Remedial Action at any time, however, to enforce our policies and ensure the safety and security of our customers and their users. If we take Remedial Action without prior notice, we will provide the reason to you as soon as is practically possible.
C. Effect of Remedial Action. If we take Remedial Action:
A. Content. As between you and Sero!, you own Your Content. You are solely responsible for the development, operation, maintenance, and use of Your Content. For example, you are solely responsible for:
You represent and warrant to us that:
Sero! responds to notices of alleged copyright infringement and terminates accounts of repeat infringers according to the process set out in the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act. We reserve the right to take Remedial Action upon receipt of a valid DMCA notice.
B. Proprietary rights. In general, except as expressly set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, this Agreement does not grant either party any rights, implied or otherwise, to the other’s Content or any of the other’s intellectual property. As between the parties, you own all intellectual property rights in your Applications and customer data, and we own all intellectual property rights in the Services.
Notwithstanding that general principle:
If you believe that your copyrighted work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement and is accessible via the Sero! Services, please notify our copyright agent, as set forth in the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (“DMCA”). For your complaint to be valid under the DMCA, you must provide the following information in writing:
Submit the above information to:
Sero! Learning Assessments, Inc.
Attn: Notices
support@serolearn.com
Sero! will promptly terminate without notice the accounts of users that are determined by Sero! to be “repeat infringers.” A repeat infringer is a user who has been notified of infringing activity or has had Content removed from the Service at least twice.
This procedure is exclusively for notifying Sero! that your copyrighted material has been infringed. This policy is intended to protect and comply with Sero!’s rights and obligations under the DMCA, including 17 U.S.C. § 512(c), but does not constitute legal advice. You should contact an attorney for counsel regarding your specific legal rights and obligations.
A. License to access and use the Services. We grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferrable license to access and use the Services solely in accordance with this Agreement. This license is valid only during the term of this Agreement, and is revoked upon termination. This license is subject to the following restrictions:
B. License to re-use your Sero! documentation. Notwithstanding the above, we grant you a perpetual license to use, make, adapt, and distribute copies of Sero! documentation to affiliates, directors, officers, employees, or contractors, or as needed to comply with any request of a governmental or regulatory body or a partner. This license is limited to use for your own internal business purposes. You may not resell such materials, or use them (or let them be used) to develop competing products or services. Any distribution you make to third parties must include these restrictions. You are responsible for exporting such materials from Sero! before you cease to be a customer
C. Our trademarks. Sero! hereby grants you a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free, non-transferable license, with no right to sub-license, to display the Sero! trademarks for the sole purpose of promoting or advertising that you use the Sero! Services. This license shall be exercised only in accordance with the current version of our Trademark Policy. You agree that all goodwill generated through your use of the Sero! trademarks shall inure to the benefit of Sero!.
You hereby grant us a worldwide, non-sublicensable, non-transferable, non-exclusive, terminable, limited license to reproduce, adapt, modify, translate, publish, publicly perform, publicly display, host, store, transfer, modify for the purpose of formatting for display, and distribute any data (including Your Content) for the sole purpose of enabling us to provide you with the Services.
You acknowledge and agree that the form and nature of the Services which Sero! provides may change from time to time without prior notice, subject to any other relevant terms. Changes to the form and nature of the Services will be effective with respect to all versions of the Services; examples of changes to the form and nature of the Services include without limitation changes to the Billing Policy, security patches, added functionality, and other enhancements.
The license granted in this Agreement will remain in effect, unless terminated earlier as set forth in this Agreement. The sections concerning Intellectual Property, Indemnification, Exclusion of Warranties, Limitations of Liability, Governing Law, Dispute Resolution and Arbitration, General Terms shall continue to be effective after this Agreement is terminated.
Unless you have a purchase order or other contractual commitment to Sero!:
YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR EXPORTING YOUR CONTENT FROM THE SERVICES PRIOR TO CLOSING YOUR ACCOUNT. CONTACT SUPPORT@SEROLEARN.COM FOR INSTRUCTIONS. IF WE CANCEL YOUR ACCOUNT, WE WILL PROVIDE YOU A REASONABLE OPPORTUNITY TO RETRIEVE YOUR CONTENT, AS PERMITTED BY LAW.
You will not receive any refunds if you terminate this Agreement. If the Agreement is terminated, all of your rights under this Agreement immediately terminate and all fees and charges (including any applicable taxes) owed by you to us are due immediately, including fees and charges for in-process tasks completed after the date of termination.
We reserve the right, at our discretion, to change these Terms, as well as the Policies, on a going-forward basis at any time.
If the changed Terms or Policies materially modify your rights or obligations, we may require you to provide consent by accepting the changed Terms or Policies, as applicable. If we require your acceptance of the changed Terms or Policies, changes are effective only after your acceptance.
In the event that a change to these Terms or Policies does not materially modify your rights or obligations, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you of such change. We may provide notice through a pop-up or banner within the Services, by sending an email to any address you may have used to register for an account, or through other similar mechanisms. These changes are effective upon publication of the changed Terms or Policies.
If you do not accept the changed Terms or Policies, we may terminate your access to and use of the Services. If you are under contractual commitment to Sero!, we may choose not to renew your contract.
Disputes arising under this Agreement will be resolved in accordance with the version of this Agreement that was in effect between the parties at the time the dispute arose.
A. Our Obligations to You. Sero! is obligated to provide Services in accordance with the terms of these Terms of Service and our Service Level Agreement.
B. Your Obligations to Us. You agree that you will be responsible for your use of the Services, and if you harm someone or get in a dispute with someone else, we will not be involved. You agree to defend and indemnify Sero! and its officers, directors, employees, consultants, affiliates, subsidiaries and agents (together, the ”Sero! Entities”) from and against every third-party claim, liability, damage, loss, and expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, arising out of or in any way connected with: (a) your access to, use of, or alleged use of, the Services; (b) your violation of any portion of this Agreement, any representation, warranty, or agreement referenced in this Agreement, or any applicable law or regulation; (c) your violation of any third-party right, including any intellectual property right or publicity, confidentiality, other property, or privacy right; or (d) any dispute or issue between you and any third party. We reserve the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you (without limiting your indemnification obligations with respect to that matter), and in that case, you agree to cooperate with our defense of that claim. The assumption of such defense or control by us, however, shall not excuse any of your indemnity obligations.
EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED FOR HEREIN, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, SERO! DOES NOT MAKE ANY OTHER WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR USE AND NONINFRINGEMENT. SERO! IS NOT RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE FOR THE DELETION OF OR FAILURE TO STORE ANY CONTENT AND OTHER COMMUNICATIONS MAINTAINED OR TRANSMITTED THROUGH USE OF THE SERVICE. YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR SECURING AND BACKING UP YOUR APPLICATION AND CUSTOMER DATA, EXCEPT WHERE BACKUP OR SECURITY CONTROLS ARE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED AS FEATURES OF THE SERVICES. SERO!

THE SERVICES ARE NOT DESIGNED, MANUFACTURED, OR INTENDED FOR HIGH RISK ACTIVITIES. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU USE THE SERVICES AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION AND RISK.
NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED BY YOU FROM THE SERVICES OR ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SERVICES WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY REGARDING ANY OF THE SERO! ENTITIES OR THE SERVICES THAT IS NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THIS AGREEMENT. YOU ASSUME ALL RISK FOR ANY DAMAGE THAT MAY RESULT FROM YOUR USE OF OR ACCESS TO THE SERVICES AND ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SERVICES. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOU USE THE SERVICES, AND USE, ACCESS, DOWNLOAD, OR OTHERWISE OBTAIN MATERIALS OR CONTENT THROUGH THE SERVICE AND ANY ASSOCIATED SITES OR SERVICES, AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION AND RISK, AND THAT YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR PROPERTY (INCLUDING YOUR COMPUTER SYSTEM OR MOBILE DEVICE USED IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICE), OR THE LOSS OF DATA THAT RESULTS FROM THE USE OF THE SERVICE OR THE DOWNLOAD OR USE OF THAT MATERIAL OR CONTENT.

ENTITY HAS BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF DAMAGE.
YOU AGREE THAT THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF THE SERO! ENTITIES TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE USE OF OR ANY INABILITY TO USE ANY PORTION OF THE SERVICE OR OTHERWISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT PAID BY YOU TO SERO!

As with any cloud service, you have ongoing security responsibilities to protect Your Content. You hereby agree to the terms of our Security Policy.
This Agreement is governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia without regard to conflict of law principles. If a lawsuit or court proceeding is permitted under this Agreement, then, unless another location is expressly specified in this Agreement, you and Sero! agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts and federal courts located within the Commonwealth of Virginia for the purpose of litigating any dispute.
A. Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between you and Sero! in the most expedient and cost effective manner, you and Sero! agree that every dispute arising in connection with this Agreement will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. Our agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of this Agreement, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of this Agreement. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND SERO! ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
B. Exceptions. We both agree that nothing in Agreement will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either of us to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.
C. Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and Sero! will be governed by the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by this Agreement, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting Sero!.
D. Notice; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other, by certified mail or Federal Express (signature required), or if we do not have a physical address on file for you, by electronic mail (“Notice”). Sero!’s address for Notice is:
Sero! Learning Assessments, Inc.
Attn: Notices
support@serolearn.com
The Notice must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). We agree to use good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if we do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or Sero! may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Sero! must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If our dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor, Sero! will pay you the highest of the following: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator, if any; (ii) the last written settlement amount offered by Sero! in settlement of the dispute prior to the arbitrator’s award; or (iii) $1,000.
E. Fees. If you commence arbitration in accordance with this Agreement, Sero! will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than $10,000, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in Portland, Oregon, but if the claim is for $10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse Sero! for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the preceding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
F. No Class Actions. YOU AND SERO! AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Sero! agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.
G. Modifications. If Sero! makes any future change to this arbitration provision (other than a change to Sero!’s address for Notice), you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to Sero!’s address for Notice, in which case your account with Sero! will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the amendments you reject, will survive.
H. Enforceability. If any part of this section is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this section will be null and void and, in that case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in the Governing Law section will govern any action arising out of or related to this Agreement.
If you are a California resident, under California Civil Code Section 1789.3, you may contact the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs in writing at 1625 N. Market Blvd., Suite S-202, Sacramento, California 95834, or by telephone at (800) 952-5210 in order to resolve a complaint regarding the Service or to receive further information regarding use of the Service.
A. Notices. All notices to Sero! must be in writing and addressed to support@serolearn.com. Notice will be treated as given on receipt as verified by written automated receipt or by electronic log (as applicable).
You agree that Sero! may provide you with notices, including those regarding changes to this Agreement, by email, regular mail, or postings on the Sero! Services. By providing Sero! your email address, you consent to our using the email address to send you any notices required by law in lieu of communication by postal mail.
B. Assignment. You may not assign any part of this Agreement without our written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may assign the entirety of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, without consent of the other party, to its affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets not involving a direct competitor of the other party.
C. Force Majeure. Sero! shall not be liable for failing or delaying performance of its obligations resulting from any condition beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to, governmental action, acts of terrorism, earthquake, fire, flood or other acts of God, labor conditions, power failures, and Internet disturbances.
D. No Agency. This Agreement does not create any agency, partnership or joint venture between the parties.
E. No Waiver. You agree that any delay or failure of Sero! to exercise or enforce any legal right or remedy which is contained in this Agreement (or which we have the benefit of under any applicable law), for any reason, does not constitute a formal waiver of our rights and that those rights or remedies will still be available to us.
F. Severability. If any term (or part of a term) of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the rest of the Agreement will remain in effect.
G. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement does not confer any benefits on any third party unless expressly stated.
H. Equitable Relief. Subject to Section 19 (Dispute Resolution and Arbitration), nothing in this Agreement will limit either party’s ability to seek equitable relief.
I. Amendments. Any amendment must be in writing, signed by both parties, and expressly state that it is amending this Agreement.
J. Entire Agreement. This Agreement supersedes all other agreements between the parties relating to its subject matter. In entering into this Agreement, neither party has relied on, and neither party will have any right remedy based on, any statement, representation or warranty (whether made negligently or innocently), except those expressly set out in this Agreement. The terms located at a URL referenced in this Agreement and the Documentation are hereby incorporated by this reference. After the Effective Date, Sero! may provide you with an updated URL in place of any URL in this Agreement.
K. Interpretation of Conflicting Terms. If there is a conflict among the documents that make up this Agreement, the documents will control in the following order: this Agreement, and the terms located at any URL.

This policy outlines how Sero! determines fees and charges, and performs billing.
Your Sero! account is a paid subscription that entitles you to all of Sero!’s current and future features. You may cancel it at any time.
We charge once per month, unless we determine your account is at risk of non-payment, in which case we may require that you pay for an annual subscription in advance.
Unless you cancel your Sero! account, we will continue to charge for your subscription every month on the anniversary of your first purchase.
Sero! prices are denominated in United States dollars.
Late payments stemming from an inability to charge to the credit card on file may bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (or the highest rate permitted by law, if less) determined and compounded daily from the date due until the date paid. You will reimburse any costs or expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Sero! to collect any amount that is not paid when due. Amounts due from you under may not be withheld or offset by you against amounts due to you for any reason.
Other than federal and state net income taxes imposed on Sero! by the United States, you are responsible for paying all taxes, duties, and other governmental charges (“taxes”), pursuant to the Sero! Terms of Service. You will pay any additional amounts as are necessary to ensure that the net amounts received by Sero! after all such taxes are paid are equal to the amounts that Sero! would have been entitled to if the taxes did not exist.
Any changes to this policy will be posted on this page and may not be provided directly to current subscribers. Sero! Learning Assessments may change subscription rates. Subscribers will be notified of any changes to subscription rates, with the option to cancel subscription effective immediately.

This policy outlines: 1) Sero!’s security practices and resources, and 2) your security obligations.
Obligations under this policy (both ours and yours) are are incorporated by reference into the Sero! Terms of Service.
Our documentation may specify restrictions on how the Services may be configured. You agree to comply with any such restrictions or specifications.
You are responsible for properly configuring and using the Services and taking your own steps to maintain appropriate security, protection and backup of Your Content, which may include the use of encryption technology to protect Your Content from unauthorized access and routinely archiving Your Content. Sero! provides many built-in controls for you, as discussed herein. Where configurable or optional security controls (such as encryption) are offered as part of the Services, you are responsible for configuring or enabling those controls. You are ultimately responsible for determining whether the security controls applied to your Applications and data are sufficient for your requirements.
Sero! access credentials and private keys generated by the Services are for your internal use only. You may not sell, transfer or sublicense them to any other entity or person, except that you may disclose your private key to your agents and subcontractors performing work on your behalf.
If you discover a potential security vulnerability, we strongly prefer that you notify us in private by sending an email to support@serolearn.com. Publicly disclosing a security vulnerability without informing us first puts the community at risk. When you notify us of a potential problem, we will work with you to make sure we understand the scope and cause of the issue. Thank you!
Without limiting any provision of the Sero! Terms of Service, we will implement reasonable and appropriate measures designed to help you secure Your Content against accidental or unlawful loss, access or disclosure.
Sero! manages information security using the ISO/IEC 27001:2013 framework, which specifies the requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining and continually improving a comprehensive information security management system and risk management capabilities.
Sero! uses the Amazon Web Services global infrastructure platform.
AWS publishes an “Overview of Security Processes” whitepaper that serves as the reference material for this section. SOC 2 reports are available directly from AWS upon request.
AWS computing environments are continuously audited, with certifications from accreditation bodies across geographies and verticals, including ISO 27001, FedRAMP, DoD CSM, and PCI DSS. Additionally AWS also has assurance programs that provide templates and control mappings to help customers establish the compliance of their environments running on AWS against 20+ standards, including the HIPAA, CESG (UK), and Singapore Multi-tier Cloud Security (MTCS) standards.
p. 6 – “Introduction to AWS Security – July 2015”
AWS data centers are housed in nondescript facilities. Physical access is strictly controlled both at the perimeter and at building ingress points by professional security staff utilizing video surveillance, intrusion detection systems, and other electronic means. Authorized staff must pass two-factor authentication a minimum of two times to access data center floors. All visitors and contractors are required to present identification and are signed in and continually escorted by authorized staff.
p. 5 – “Amazon Web Services: Overview of Security Processes – May 2017”
AWS data center environmental controls include:
pp. 5-8 – “Amazon Web Services: Overview of Security Processes – May 2017”
Sero! Enclave stacks run in separate AWS Virtual Private Clouds. Each stack is an isolated network. Most services run in a private subnet. Only SSL/TLS endpoints and a bastion host are exposed to the Internet. Backend users connect to the stack through the bastion host, which restricts access to stack components and logs activity for review.
All public-facing EC2 instances use inbound Security Group rules configured in deny-all mode. Ports are opened as necessary for: administrative SSH access, Enclave SSH Portal Access, and Redis. Public-facing Enclave Endpoints (which consist in part of an AWS load balancer) are configured to allow traffic on all ports, but only listen on the specific ports required for functionality (e.g., 80 and 443 for an HTTPS Endpoint).
Enclave’s VPC-based approach means that most stack components are not accessible from the Internet, and cannot be targeted directly by a DDoS attack.
Enclave SSL/TLS endpoints include an AWS Elastic Load Balancer, which only supports valid TCP requests, meaning DDoS attacks such as UDP and SYN floods will not reach your app layer.
Should you need to add capacity to deal with a potential attack, you can instantly scale your stack using the Sero! dashboard or command line tool.
AWS monitors and stops unauthorized port scanning. Because most of an Enclave stack is private, and all hosts run strict firewalls, port scanning is generally ineffective.
The AWS network prohibits a host from sending traffic with a source IP or MAC address other than its own. The AWS hypervisor will also not deliver any traffic to a host the traffic is not addressed to, meaning even an instance running in promiscuous mode will not receive or be able to “sniff” traffic intended for other hosts.
p. 13 – “Amazon Web Services: Overview of Security Processes – May 2017”
Sero! scans both the Internet-facing network and private network of a master reference stack each month. Sero! is responsible for network and host security, and remediates adverse findings without customer intervention, however you may request a scan of your dedicated VPC and its hosts as needed for your own security assessments and audits.
For app services that have an SSL/TLS endpoint attached, Enclave performs a health check on the container set before promoting it to the current release. If the health check fails, the container set is not promoted. Either way, the deploy is zero-downtime.
For any deploy, you can roll back to a previous codebase by pushing a different ref to your app’s Git endpoint.
Dedicated Enclave environments are deployed on AWS VPC-based dedicated stacks, isolated at the customer level. The VPC, network, underlying instances, and AWS virtual infrastructure for your dedicated stack are not shared with any other tenant.
Sero! logs AWS and Sero! API activity, and host activity within your stack. Enclave monitors performance indicators such as disk, memory, compute, and logging issues, and automatically resolves them on your behalf.
You may choose to run a host-based intrusion detection or prevention system that can be managed externally, such as Threat Stack, as an add-on. Sero! will ensure the host agents run and can connect to your external management service. You are responsible for procuring a license and operating the system.
Enclave host operating systems are hardened based on the Center for Internet Security’s Security Configuration Benchmark for the OS and version in use. For all operating systems:
SSH public key authentication is used to limit access to your authorized backend users during git-based deploys. Following a successful push to an Sero! git endpoint, code is copied down to your stack’s build layer. The resulting images are pushed to a private stack registry, backed by AWS S3, which provides redundant, access-controlled storage.
Databases run in the database layer of your stack, on a private subnet accessible only from app or bastion layer. SSL/TLS is required if the database protocol supports it. Disk volumes backing databases are encrypted at the filesystem level using Sero!-managed AES encryption. You can check whether your database uses AES-192 or AES-256 in the Enclave dashboard. You can rekey the database by dumping/restoring it at any time. You may implement additional controls, such as database security policies or row-/column-level encryption with keys you manage.
Sero! automatically backs up several different types of data:
AWS data centers are clustered into regions, and sub-clustered into availability zones, each of which is designed as an independent failure zone, meaning they are:
For dedicated environments, Enclave automatically distributes app containers across availability zones when a service is scaled to more than one container.
Enclave allows you to set up high-availability clustering for databases that support it.
App services on v2 stacks are automatically distributed across AWS availability zones as soon as they are scaled to more than one container.
Sero! monitors the stability and availability of customer infrastructure and automatically recovers from disruptions, including app and database failures. In the event of a disaster, Sero! restores apps from the last healthy build image and restores data from the last backup. In the event of a database outage, Enclave will automatically recover the underlying database instance and disk. If the disk is unavailable, Enclave will restore from a backup. Raw database snapshots and restored database clones are available upon request for testing and recovery.
We do not access or use Your Content for any purpose other than for developing and operating the Services and as required by law. As a routine matter, Sero! workforce members do not require access to data processed by your Enclave Containerized Services, such as data stored in your databases. Sero! workforce members are granted least-privilege access to customer environments only when a specific business need arises. Workforce members undergo criminal background screening before hire. In some cases, such as Enclave databases, you may encrypt Your Content using keys you manage.
Sero! manages information security consistent with ISO 27001 and applicable legal and regulatory requirements. Sero!’s ISO 27001 certification for Enclave and Gridron.
Sero! conducts regular security and vulnerability assessments of stack hosts and our applications. Code undergoes automated testing and manual code review prior to being deployed to production. Our security team receives regular notifications of vulnerabilities and patches on a continuous basis.
