Charges, Fees, and Payment Terms

The use of PeachCourt by Authorized Users will result in the accrual of fees for eFiling, Document Access, and eService via PeachCourt (“Usage Fees”) in addition to the normal statutory filing fees (“Court Fees”). Both the Usage Fees and Court Fees must be paid by the Authorized User at the time of submission, unless stated otherwise herein.

Usage Fees:

The usage fee depends on the initiation date of the case, the case type, and/or the jurisdiction where the matter is filed. PeachCourt reserves the right to charge any of the following usage fees.

eFiling Fee = Either ($5.00 per Transaction + $3.00 eService fee) OR ($7.00 per Transaction + $0.00 eService Fee). Certain courts and certain cases within those courts, particularly those cases initiated prior to mandatory electronic filing in that court, carry a per-transaction fee rather than a per-party fee.

Per Party Fee of $30.00.

Supplemental Filing Fee of $5.00 per transaction after the 10th filing on behalf of a single party in a single case.

Document Access Fee = $0.50 per Page.

Document Access Fee Information: You will be billed for all Document Access fees accrued during a given day on a given payment account, which shall include a convenience fee of 3.5% + $0.30.  The total purchase price and convenience fee will be automatically charged to the selected payment method at the close of the purchasing session (on or around 10:00 PM ET daily).   Receipts will be generated electronically and sent via email to the primary email address on the account within two business days of processing.

Prices for documents or other products offered via PeachCourt may change at any time, and PeachCourt does not provide price protection or refunds in the event of a price reduction or promotional offering.

If a document becomes unavailable following a transaction or cannot be downloaded, your sole remedy is a refund. If technical problems prevent or unreasonably delay access to your document, your exclusive and sole remedy is either replacement or refund of the price paid, as determined by GreenCourt. 

Convenience Fee for Online Payment:

A convenience charge of 3.5% + $0.30 will be assessed for each eFiling Transaction and Document Access Transaction processed through PeachCourt. 

Methods of Payment. 

Authorized Users may choose to pay Usage Fees and Court Fees by either Automated Clearing House (ACH, a financial institution deducts the amount of fees from a designated checking/banking account) or Credit Card (authorized User pays the Fees via a valid credit card; PeachCourt accepts American Express, Visa, MasterCard, and Discover).

Authorized User acknowledges and agrees that GreenCourt shall have the right to terminate Authorized User’s access and right to use Authorized User’s PeachCourt account for failure to pay any Usage Fee(s), Convenience Fees, and/or Court Fees under this Agreement.

California Online Privacy Protection Act

CalOPPA is the first state law in the nation to require commercial websites and online services to post a privacy policy. The law’s reach stretches well beyond California to require a person or company in the United States (and conceivably the world) that operates websites collecting personally identifiable information from California consumers to post a conspicuous privacy policy on its website stating exactly the information being collected and those individuals with whom it is being shared, and to comply with this policy.

COPPA (Children Online Privacy Protection Act)

When it comes to the collection of personal information from children under 13, the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) puts parents in control. The Federal Trade Commission, the nation’s consumer protection agency, enforces the COPPA Rule, which spells out what operators of websites and online services must do to protect children’s privacy and safety online.

We do not specifically market to children under 13.

Fair Information Practices

The Fair Information Practices Principles form the backbone of privacy law in the United States and the concepts they include have played a significant role in the development of data protection laws around the globe. Understanding the Fair Information Practice Principles and how they should be implemented is critical to comply with the various privacy laws that protect personal information.

In order to be in line with Fair Information Practices we will take the following responsive action, should a data breach occur:

      • We will notify the users via in site notification within 7 business days.

We also agree to the individual redress principle, which requires that individuals have a right to pursue legally enforceable rights against data collectors and processors who fail to adhere to the law. This principle requires not only that individuals have enforceable rights against data users, but also that individuals have recourse to courts or a government agency to investigate and/or prosecute non-compliance by data processors.

CAN SPAM Act

The CAN-SPAM Act is a law that sets the rules for commercial email, establishes requirements for commercial messages, gives recipients the right to have emails stopped from being sent to them, and spells out tough penalties for violations.
