Our Support: Where we provide assistance in the Customer’s use of the Services, the Customer acknowledges that we have extensive experience helping Customers improve utilisation and realisation of benefits of the Services, and that not following our advice and/or not engaging us in the provision of professional services may substantially limit the Customer’s ability to successfully utilize the Services or to enjoy the power and potential of the Services.

Each party agrees: (a) to keep confidential all Confidential Information; (b) not to use or disclose Confidential Information except to the extent necessary to perform its obligations or exercise rights under this Agreement or as directed by The Customer; (c) to protect the confidentiality thereof in the same manner as it protects the confidentiality of similar information and data of its own (at all times exercising at least a reasonable degree of care in the protection of such Confidential Information, including but not limited to inputting credit card data and social security numbers only in the fields designated for such data in the Service) and to make Confidential Information available to authorised persons only on a “need to know” basis.

3. Warranties

3.1.  Warranty of Functionality: We do not warrant that the Services will achieve in all material respects the functionality described in any documentation and/or communications applicable to the Services purchased by Customer.

3.2. No Virus Warranty. We warrant that the Services will be free of viruses, Trojan horses, worms, spyware, or other such malicious code (“Malicious Code”), except for any Malicious Code contained in the Customer-uploaded attachments or otherwise originating from the Customer.

4. Disclaimer of Warranties: Except as stated in section 3 above, we do not represent that customer’s use of the Services will be secure, timely, uninterrupted or error-free or that the Service will meet the Customer’s requirements or that all errors in the Services and/or documentation will be corrected or that the overall system that makes the Services available (including but not limited to the internet, other transmission networks, and the Customer’s local network and equipment) will be free of viruses or other harmful components. The warranties stated in section 3 above are the sole and exclusive warranties offered by us. There are no other warranties or conditions, express or implied, including without limitation, those of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose or non-infringement of third party rights. Except as stated in section 3.2 above, the Services are provided to the Customer on an “as is” and “as available” basis, and are for commercial use only. The Customer assumes all responsibility for determining whether the service or the information generated thereby is accurate or sufficient for customer’s purposes.

5. Limitations on Liability: The Customer agrees that the consideration which we are charging hereunder does not include consideration for assumption by us of the risk of Customer’s incidental or consequential damages. In no event shall either party be liable to anyone for lost profits or revenue or for incidental, consequential, punitive, cover, special, reliance or exemplary damages, or indirect damages of any type or kind however caused, whether from breach of warranty, breach or repudiation of contract, negligence, or any other legal cause of action from or in connection with this agreement (and whether or not the party has been advised of the possibility of such damages to the maximum extent permitted by law) or otherwise shall in no event exceed the direct damage limitations as set forth in section 5.

Except with regard to amounts due under this Agreement, and a party’s breach of section 2.8 (confidential information), the maximum liability of either party to any person, firm or corporation whatsoever arising out of or in the connection with any licence, use or other employment of the Services, whether such liability arises from any claim based on breach or repudiation of contract, breach of warranty, negligence, tort, or otherwise, shall in no case exceed the equivalent of 12 months in subscription fees applicable at the time of the event, and in the event of a breach of section 2.8 (confidential information) of this Terms of Service, such maximum liability of either party shall be an amount equal to three (3) times the equivalent of 12 months of subscription fees applicable at the time of the event. The essential purpose of this provision is to limit the potential liability of the parties arising from this agreement. The parties acknowledge that the limitations set forth in this section are integral to the amount of fees charged in connection with making the Services available to the Customer and that, were we to assume any further liability other than as set forth herein, such fees would of necessity be set substantially higher.

The limitations of liability set forth in this section shall not apply to either party’s indemnity obligations except as set forth in section 6 below.

6. Indemnification

6.1. Infringement: We shall, at our own expense and subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 6, defend the Customer from and against any and all allegations, threats, claims, actions, and proceedings brought by third parties (collectively “Claims”) alleging that the Services, as used in accordance with this Agreement, infringes third party copyrights, trade secrets or trademarks and shall hold the Customer harmless from and against liability, damages, and costs finally awarded or entered into in settlement (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees) (collectively, “Losses”) to the extent based upon such a Claim. Excluded from the above indemnification obligations are Claims to the extent arising from (a) use of the Services in violation of this Agreement or applicable law, (b) use of the Services after we notify the Customer to discontinue use because of an infringement claim, or (c) modifications to the Services or use of the Services in combination with any software, application or service made or provided other than by us. If a Claim of infringement is brought or threatened, we shall, at our sole option and expense, use commercially reasonable efforts either (a) to procure a licence that will protect the Customer against such Claim without cost to the Customer; (b) to modify or replace all or portions of the Service as needed to avoid infringement, such update or replacement having substantially similar or better capabilities; or (c) if (a) and (b) are not commercially feasible, terminate the Agreement and refund to the Customer a pro-rata refund of the subscription fees paid for under the Agreement for the terminated portion of the Term. The rights and remedies granted to the Customer under this Section 6.1 state our entire liability, and the Customer’s exclusive remedy, with respect to any claim of infringement of the intellectual property rights of a third party.

6.2. Disclosure of The Customer Data: We shall, at our own expense and subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 6, defend the Customer from and against any Claims that arise out of or result directly from our gross negligence or wilful misconduct in preventing unauthorized access to confidential customer Data, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in connection with a Claim alleging a breach of confidentiality, and shall hold the Customer harmless from and against liability for any Losses to the extent based upon such a Claims. When we are at fault but such fault does not rise to the level of gross negligence or wilful misconduct, we shall, at our own expense and subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 6 and on the amount of liability set forth in Section 5 applicable in the event of a breach of Section 2.8, defend the Customer from and against any Claims, and shall hold the Customer harmless from and against liability for any Losses to the extent based upon Claims, arising out of or relating to our breach of Section 2.8 (Confidential Information) of this Terms of Service.

Provided that we comply with this section 6.2, the Customer shall be entitled as its sole and exclusive remedy to terminate the Agreement and receive a pro-rata refund of the subscription fees paid for under the Agreement for the terminated portion of the Term.

6.3. The Customer’s Indemnity: The Customer shall, at its own expense and subject to the limitations set forth in this section 6, defend us from and against any and all Claims (i) alleging that the customer Data or any trademarks or service marks other than Our Marks, or any use thereof, infringes the intellectual property rights or other rights, or has caused harm to a third party, or (ii) arising out of the Customer’s breach of Section 2.4 (The Customer’s Lawful Conduct) or 2.8 (Confidential Information) above and shall hold us harmless from and against liability for any Losses to the extent based upon such a Claims.

6.4. Indemnification Procedures and Survival: In the event of a potential indemnity obligation under this Section 6, the indemnified party shall: (i) promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of such Claim; (ii) allow the indemnifying party to have sole control of its defence and settlement; and (iii) upon request of the indemnifying party, co-operate in all reasonable respects, at the indemnifying party’s cost and expense, with the indemnifying party in the investigation, trial, and defence of such Claim and any appeal arising therefrom. The indemnification obligations under this section 6 are expressly conditioned upon the indemnified party’s compliance with this section 6.4 except that failure to notify the indemnifying party of such Claim shall not relieve that party of its obligations under this section 6 but such Claim shall be reduced to the extent of any damages attributable to such failure. The indemnification obligations contained in this section 6 shall survive termination of this Agreement for one year.

7. Suspension/Termination:

7.1. Suspension for Delinquent Account: We reserve the right to suspend the Customer’s and any of the Customer Affiliates’ access to and/or use of the Services for any accounts (i) for which any payment is due but unpaid but only after we have provided the Customer two (2) delinquency notices, and at least thirty (30) days have passed since the transmission of the first notice (“Delinquent Account Status”), or (ii) for which the Customer has not paid for the renewal term and has not notified us of its desire to renew the Services by the End Date of the then current term. The suspension is for the entire account and the Customer understands that such suspension would therefore include Affiliate sub-accounts. The Customer agrees that we shall not be liable to the Customer or to any of the Customer‘s Affiliate or other third party for any suspension of the Services pursuant to this Section 7.1.

7.2. Suspension for Ongoing Harm: The Customer agrees that we may with reasonably contemporaneous written or telephonic notice to the Customer suspend access to the Services if we reasonably conclude that the Customer’s Services are being used to engage in denial of service attacks, spamming, or illegal activity, and/or use of the Customer’s Services are causing immediate, material and ongoing harm to us or others. In the extraordinary event that we suspend the Customer’s access to the Services, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to limit the suspension to the offending portion of the Services and resolve the issues causing the suspension of Services. The Customer further agrees that we shall not be liable to the Customer nor to any third party for any suspension of the Services under such circumstances as described in this Section 7.2.

7.3. Termination for Cause, Expiration: Either party may immediately terminate this Agreement in the event the other party commits a material breach of any provision of this Agreement which is not cured within thirty (30) days of written notice from the non-breaching party.

Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, the Customer shall have no rights to continue use of the Services. If this Agreement is terminated by the Customer for any reason other than a termination expressly permitted by this Agreement, the Customer agrees that we shall be entitled to all of the fees due under this Agreement for the entire Term.

During this 90 day period and upon the Customer’s request, we will grant the Customer limited access to the Services for several days for the sole purpose of permitting the Customer to retrieve the Customer Data, provided that the Customer has paid in full all good faith undisputed amounts owed to us. The Customer further agrees that we shall not be liable to the Customer nor to any third party for any termination of the Customer access to the Services or deletion of the Customer Data, provided that we are in compliance with the terms of this Section 7.4.

8. Modification; Discontinuation of The Services.

8.1.

8.2. To Applicable Terms. If we make a material change to any applicable Terms, then we will notify the Customer by either sending an email to the notification email address or posting a notice accessible in the Customer’s account.
