• “Data Rates” means Provider’s current fees associated with retention and transfer of Customer Data beyond what is included in a particular subscription package associated with an Order, and subject to change by Provider.

THE SAAS

• Use of the SaaS. During the Term, Customer may access and use the SaaS pursuant to the terms of any outstanding Order, including such features and functions as the Order requires.
• Documentation: Customer may reproduce and use the Documentation solely as necessary to support Users’ use of the SaaS.
• SaaS Revisions. Provider may revise SaaS features and functions at any time, including without limitation by removing such features and functions or reducing service levels. If any such revision to the SaaS materially reduces features or functionality provided pursuant to an outstanding Order, Customer may within 30 days of notice of the revision terminate such Order, without cause, or terminate this Agreement without cause if such Order is the only one outstanding.

PAYMENT

• Subscription Fees. Customer shall pay Provider the fee set forth in each Order (the “Subscription Fee”) for each Term. Provider’s invoices are due upon receipt, and provision of the SaaS shall commence after Provider’s receipt of payment. Provider will not be required to refund the Subscription Fee under any circumstances. In the event Customer’s method of payment is declined, or payment of the Subscription Fee fails for any reason, Customer’s access to the SaaS will be immediately suspended until payment is received by Provider.

• Applicable Data Rates are subject to change from time to time. Any updates to Data Rates will be sent to the main Customer email address on file with Provider. Provider shall provide at least ten (10) days’ advance notice to Customer regarding any price increases in Data Rates before price increases become effective.

Provider offers no representation, warranty, or guarantee that Customer Data will not be exposed or disclosed through errors or the actions of third parties. Provider shall review its security protocols and all other Customer Data security precautions regularly, but no less than annually, and update them to comply with applicable laws, regulations, technology changes, and best practices.

Customer warrants that (a) it has not and will not transmit Excluded Data (as defined below), or permit transmission of Excluded Data, to Provider or its computers or other media and, (b) to the best of its knowledge, Customer Data does not and will not include Excluded Data. Customer shall inform Provider of any Excluded Data within Customer Data promptly after discovery (without limiting Provider’s rights or remedies). Customer recognizes and agrees that: (i) the provisions of this Agreement related to Customer Data do not apply to Excluded Data; (ii) Provider has no liability for any failure to provide protections in the Excluded Data Laws (as defined below) or otherwise to protect Excluded Data; and (iii) Provider’s systems are not intended for management or protection of Excluded Data and may not provide adequate or legally required security for Excluded Data. Provider is not responsible or liable for any data exposure or disclosure or related loss to the extent that it involves Excluded Data.

  • Termination & Return. With respect to each item of Confidential Information, the obligations of Section 1 above (Nondisclosure) will terminate five (5) years after the date of termination of the SaaS; provided that such obligations related to Confidential Information constituting Provider’s trade secrets will continue so long as such information remains subject to trade secret protection pursuant to applicable law.

Customer waives any opposition to such injunctive relief or any right to such proof, bond, or other security. (This Section 3 does not limit either party’s right to injunctive relief for breaches not listed.)

In case of breach of the warranty above in this Section 1, Provider, at its own expense, shall promptly: (a) secure for Customer the right to continue using the SaaS; (b) replace or modify the SaaS to make it noninfringing; or if such remedies are not commercially practical in Provider’s reasonable opinion, (c) refund the fees paid for the SaaS for every month remaining in the then-current Term following the date after which Customer access to the SaaS ceases as a result of such breach of warranty.

INDEMNIFICATION

Customer shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Provider and the Provider Associates (as defined below) against any “Indemnified Claim,” meaning any third party claim, suit, or proceeding arising out of or related to Customer’s alleged or actual use of, misuse of, or failure to use the SaaS, including without limitation: (a) claims by Users or by Customer’s employees, as well as by Customer’s own customers; (b) claims related to Data Incidents (as defined below); (c) claims related to infringement or violation of a copyright, trademark, trade secret, or privacy or confidentiality right by written material, images, logos or other content uploaded to the SaaS through Customer’s account, including without limitation by Customer Data; and (d) claims that use of the SaaS through Customer’s account, including by Users, harasses, defames, or defrauds a third party or violates the CAN-Spam Act of 2003 or any other law or restriction on electronic advertising. INDEMNIFIED CLAIMS INCLUDE, WITHOUT LIMITATION, CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO PROVIDER’S NEGLIGENCE. Customer’s obligations set forth in this Article 9 include, without limitation: (i) settlement at Customer’s expense and payment of judgments finally awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction, as well as payment of court costs and other reasonable expenses; and (ii) reimbursement of reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred before Customers’ assumption of the defense (but not attorneys’ fees incurred thereafter). If Customer fails to assume the defense on time to avoid prejudicing the defense, Provider may defend the Indemnified Claim, without loss of rights pursuant to this Article 9. Provider will have the right, not to be exercised unreasonably, to reject any settlement or compromise that requires that it or a Provider Associate admit wrongdoing or liability or subjects either of them to any ongoing affirmative obligation. (“Provider Associates” are Provider’s officers, directors, shareholders, parents, subsidiaries, agents, successors, and assigns. A “Data Incident” is any (1) unauthorized disclosure of, access to, or use of Customer Data, including without limitation Excluded Data, or (2) violation of Privacy/Security Law through Customer’s account.

Customer acknowledges and agrees that Provider has based its pricing on and entered into this Agreement in reliance upon the limitations of liability and disclaimers of warranties and damages in this Article 10 and that such terms form an essential basis of the bargain between the parties. If applicable law limits the application of the provisions of this Article 9, Provider’s liability will be limited to the maximum extent permissible.

In the event of such rejection, this Agreement will continue under its original provisions, and the amendment will become effective at the start of Customer’s next Term following the Proposed Amendment Date (unless Customer first terminates this Agreement pursuant to Article 11, Term & Termination). Customer’s continued use of the SaaS following the effective date of an amendment will confirm Customer’s consent thereto.

Provider may revise the Privacy Policy and Acceptable Use Policy at any time by posting a new version of either at the Website, and such new version will become effective on the date it is posted; provided if such amendment materially reduces Customer’s rights or protections, notice and consent will be subject to the requirements above in this Section 11.
