USING THE ACCOMMODATION
4. The Nature of Your Business
You must only use the accommodation for office purposes, and only for the business stated in your Agreement or subsequently agreed with us. Use of a Virtual Office for a “retail” nature is permitted for online sales, but the TRUE Space address cannot be used as the Return Address on deliveries or as the RETURNS address for packages returned to you. You must not carry on a business which competes with our business of providing serviced office, office cubicle accommodations, virtual office space, mail services, registered agent services, or corporate filing services. You must not use the name “TRUE Space” in any way, in connection with your business.
5. Your Name and Address
You may only carry on business at our locations in your business name or formal DBA exactly as registered with us. Only one business name / entity / DBA name may be registered to each virtual office account. You may use the business center address as your business address. Per postal regulations, the address must use a “#” sign before the suite number and CANNOT use the term “Suite” unless forced by database form to do so. The TRUE Space address cannot be listed as your Registered Agent address unless you have also selected and pay for registered agent services and use TRUE Space, Inc. as your registered agent. THE VIRTUAL OFFICE CAN ONLY BE USED FOR BUSINESS PURPOSES. MAIL ADDRESSED ONLY TO AN INDIVIDUAL CAN NOT BE ACCEPTED. ALL RECEIVED MAIL MUST INCLUDE THE BUSINESS NAME IN THE ADDRESS. You agree that you are requesting TRUE Space to automatically discard all catalogs and magazines received by mail or shipper and you grant TRUE Space the right to cancel catalogs and magazines on your behalf. You authorize TRUE Space to provide your business contact information to government bodies and agencies upon their request.
Google Maps, Bing Places, Apple Maps, and Amazon Seller Address Listings
Available to Entrepreneur Plan Clients Only: Recognizing that short term business address listings on major search engines may have the effect of damaging the SEO value of such addresses, you understand and agree to maintain your virtual office service with TRUE Space for a period of no less than 6 months after submitting our address to the search engines, map services, or online stores. If Google, Bing, Apple, Amazon, or other search engine/service require an address verification pin to be received at the address, to confirm the address, you agree that as a prerequisite to receiving your verification pin that you will first prepay for 6 months of virtual office service at your current rate. You instruct TRUE Space to open this mail, scan and email the verification pin information to you, then destroy the mail. This payment will be non-refundable. Normal monthly virtual office charges will resume after the 6 month prepaid period ends. Since the verifications pins expire 30 days after issuance (60 days for Amazon), you instruct TRUE Space to destroy the piece of mail after expiration if you do not comply with the 6 month prepayment requirement. Some services require creating and submitting a video for verification of location. This process requires you to be on site to film the video using the company’s app and may require that you rent a conference room to fulfill the company’s requirements.
6. Taking Care of Our Property
When using or visiting the TRUE Space office, you must take good care of all parts of the business center, its equipment, fittings and furnishings which you use. You must not alter any part of it.

We may transfer the benefit of your Agreement and our obligations under it at any time.
13. Duration and Service Fee
Your Agreement lasts for the duration of your utilization of Virtual Office services with TRUE Space. The term is one month (calendar month) and will then automatically be extended for successive one calendar month periods until brought to an end by you or by us (which requires that you no longer use the TRUE Space address in any way). All periods shall run to the last day of the month. Prorated periods may be utilized at the beginning of a new Virtual Office Agreement. Prorated periods do not count toward the minimum rental period of 1 calendar month. Your Monthly service fee is set at the time of your registration and will not increase as long as your account does not fall into default (Default occurs you’re your monthly payment and any associated late fees are unpaid by the 14th of the month at 5:01pm EST). In all other respects your Agreement will renew monthly on the same terms and conditions as amended by notices from TRUE Space to you via email.
14. Bringing Your Agreement To An End

Upon delivery of your Cancellation Notice – service will continue and you agree to pay through the last day of the month in which the 30th day of your notice falls, and beyond until you stop using the TRUE Space address in any way. All previously paid monthly service fees are nonrefundable and monthly virtual office service fees, late fees and interest (1% per month) will continue to accrue. You agree that you are still obligated to pay for all services until you both give 30 day notice of cancellation and cease using the TRUE Space address in any way. In the event that payment for services is not made as agreed, on the 14th of the month at 5:01pm EST your virtual office space will be in Default. Your deposits are forfeited at that time. Your monthly rate will adjust to the then current market rate. If you have multiple virtual office accounts registered with TRUE Space, and are receiving a discounted rate on those accounts; if the primary virtual office account is no longer active, the next registered virtual office account will become the Primary virtual office account and will resume normal pricing.

30. Unauthorized use of TRUE Space Address
Through this Agreement, you gain the right to use the TRUE Space address solely for the business named on this Agreement, for the duration of this Agreement, specifically as authorized and communicated to you by TRUE Space.
Use of the TRUE Space Virtual Office Address, in Association with any Other Business Name or Entity: Will result in a $250.00 Use Without Authorization Fee and automatic creation of another virtual office, and/or registered agent account, for each additional business name or entity. You agree to pay for the monthly virtual office costs and all associated deposits, prepaid final month costs, and mail forwarding deposits (as applicable) for all business names and entities with which you are using the TRUE Space address. Furthermore, you hereby authorize TRUE Space to apply such charges to your payment card(s) on file including retroactive charges, late fees, and Use Without Authorization Fees, dating back to the first identified use of the TRUE Space address.
Use of Registered Agent Address as Business Mailing Address Is Not Permitted: Your registered agent address is different than your virtual office address (different location or possibly just a different suite number). Due to the way mail is processed at our business centers, and the legal nature of registered agent mail, it is VERY important that the registered agent address is not used as your business address/business mailing address. Use of the registered agent address as your business address will result in Violation Notice from TRUE Space. Failure to correct the issue in the specified time frame will result in a fee of $20.00 per piece of mail received. Any such mail will also be returned to sender since it is improperly addressed.
Use of the issued Virtual Office Business Address for Registered Agent Services is Not Permitted: The virtual office (business address) we issue is NOT PERMITTED for use for registered agent services or on corporate filings as the “Registered Office” or “Registered Agent Address”. Use of our business center address for Registered Agent Service will trigger a Violation Notice and incurs a penalty fee of $100.00. Additionally, we will automatically enroll your account in Registered Agent Service. All required registered agent deposits, prepaid final month amount, and monthly or annual charges for this service will apply and you agree to pay and authorize charges to your payment card. Correct registered agent information will be issued via email. You are responsible for correcting your corporate filing to ensure correct and legal information is filed on your corporate filing.
Use of your individual name, or any other individual, or entity as registered agent at the TRUE Space address is prohibited by state law and this service agreement. TRUE Space has the right to notify the state that the address was used without our permission and we have the right to resign as your registered agent in any situation where our name, name of one of our employees, or business address is used on a corporate filing.
Use of the Provided Registered Agent Information in Association with any Other Business is Not Permitted:
Unauthorized use of our address as a registered agent address for a business not already registered for virtual office services will result in both a $199.00 “Annual Service Fee” and $10.00 Registered Agent Deposit charge to your payment card. If both the virtual office address and registered agent address are used with a business not registered with TRUE Space, the associated fees mentioned in this section are cumulative, such that both will apply.
Mass Mailings: The TRUE Space addresses cannot be used in conjunction with mass mailings (advertising mailings to recipients that are not currently your clients). A $2.00 fee per piece of “returned to sender” mail applies to any mail associated with a mass mailing.
Upon Cancellation or Suspension of Service By Us: You agree to immediately change your business address to no longer use the TRUE Space address.
Upon Cancellation or Suspension of Service By Us: You agree to immediately change your business address to no longer use the TRUE Space address. This includes changing your address directly with all business and client accounts as well as the Georgia Secretary of State’s office, county offices, and all government agencies. (Change of Address through the Post Office is NOT permitted per US Postal Regulations as indicated on USPS Form 1583). You must immediately cease using our address on websites, Google accounts, or any other accounts you maintain online. The use of our address is the PRIMARY business service we provide. Continued use of the TRUE Space address, beyond 30 days of your Agreement Cancellation Date (or the day after your Cancellation Date for purposes of use of the address on file with the Secretary of State), will cause your account to reactivate and any missed payments between the time of service Cancellation Date and the current date will be billed to you. These charges will be processed to any credit or debit card previously provided to us including applicable late fees. You agree that all such charges and late fees for continued use of a TRUE Space address are appropriate. In the event payment cannot be made to your credit or debit card on file, you agree that you will pay all amounts due upon receipt of notice within 30 days of receipt of such notice (you agree that email is an acceptable form of notice). Monthly charges will accrue at a rate equivalent to your standard monthly service fee for virtual office and registered agent services plus a $25.00 late fee) for each business/entity utilizing the TRUE Space address, and will be retroactive to the date service was originally terminated. Exceptions: 1) TRUE Space recognizes that “junk mail” senders may continue mailing to this address, these types of mailings will not be considered continued use of the TRUE Space address. 2) We understand that outdated online databases scrape data that may continue to display our address for your business (not considered continued address usage).
31. Package Limitations

But, we will make exceptions to receive select packages that can only be sent to a corporations mailing address such as: business checks; corporate seals; business Cards; and incorporation kits.

If not picked within 3 business days, you authorize TRUE Space to return to sender if sent by UPS, FedEx or US Mail, or otherwise donate, or discard package and contents at TRUE Space’s discretion.

Any package that exceeds 24” x 18” x 18” or violates our package rules will be discarded or donated. It is not TRUE Space’s responsibility to carry or transport oversized packages to the associated carrier or coordinate pickup of any package. Packages received from any other shipper/carrier will be discarded or donated to charity.

The "Right" continues and monthly charges are due until you properly close your account by doing all of the following: 1) Email us at office@truesp.com that you are giving 30 Day Notice of Cancellation, 2) Ensure your account is paid in full; 3) You cease using the issued virtual office address and remove it from all accounts, websites, business license filings, and corporate filings.
Refunds: Due to the digital granting of the "Right" to use our address through our Sign Up Form, and the continued renewal of this right each month, No Refunds of service costs are provided after issuance of your Confirmation Email or payment of your monthly service payment. Client prepaying for periods in excess of one month receive a discounted rate in exchange for this term commitment. In those cases, no refund of prepaid service is provided. Deposits are refunded in accordance with the deposit refund processes contained herein.
