5. Confidentiality; Proprietary rights

Each party (the “Receiving Party”) understands that the other party (the “Disclosing Party”) has disclosed or may disclose business, technical or financial information relating to the Disclosing Party’s business (hereinafter referred to as “Proprietary Information” of the Disclosing Party). Proprietary Information of Clearscope includes non-public information regarding features, functionality and performance of the Service. Proprietary Information of Customer includes non-public data provided by Customer to Clearscope to enable the provision of the Services (“Customer Data”). The Receiving Party agrees: (i) to take reasonable precautions to protect such Proprietary Information, and (ii) not to use (except in performance of the Services or as otherwise permitted herein) or divulge to any third person any such Proprietary Information. The Disclosing Party agrees that the foregoing shall not apply with respect to any information after five (5) years following the disclosure thereof or any information that the Receiving Party can document (a) is or becomes generally available to the public, or (b) was in its possession or known by it prior to receipt from the Disclosing Party, or (c) was rightfully disclosed to it without restriction by a third party, or (d) was independently developed without use of any Proprietary Information of the Disclosing Party or (e) is required to be disclosed by law.

Customer shall own all right, title and interest in and to the Customer Data, as well as any data that is based on or derived from the Customer Data and provided to Customer as part of the Services. Clearscope shall own and retain all right, title and interest in and to (a) the Services and Software, all improvements, enhancements or modifications thereto, (b) any software, applications, inventions or other technology developed in connection with support for the Services or Software, and (c) all intellectual property rights related to any of the foregoing.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Clearscope shall have the right to collect and analyze data and other information relating to the provision, use and performance of various aspects of the Services, Software, and related systems and technologies (including, without limitation, information concerning Customer Data and data derived therefrom), and Clearscope will be free (during and after the term hereof) to (i) use such information and data to improve and enhance the Services, Software, and for other development, diagnostic and corrective purposes in connection with the Services, Software, and other Clearscope offerings, and (ii) disclose such data solely in aggregate or other de-identified form in connection with its business.

No rights or licenses are granted except as expressly set forth herein.

6. Payment of fees

Customer will pay Clearscope the then applicable fees described in the plan level for the Services. If Customer’s use of the Services exceeds the Service Capacity set forth on the plan level or otherwise requires the payment of additional fees (per the terms of this Agreement), Customer shall be billed for such usage and Customer agrees to pay the additional fees in the manner provided herein. Clearscope reserves the right to change the Fees or applicable charges and to institute new charges and Fees at the end of the initial subscription period or the current renewal period as specified by the plan level, upon thirty (30) days prior notice to Customer (which may be sent by email). If Customer believes that Clearscope has billed Customer incorrectly, Customer must contact Clearscope no later than 60 days after the closing date on the first billing statement in which the error or problem appeared, to raise the issue of receiving an adjustment or credit. Inquiries should be directed to Clearscope’s customer support department.

Clearscope may choose to bill through an invoice, in which case, full payment for invoices issued in any given month must be received by Clearscope within thirty (30) days after the mailing date of the invoice. Unpaid amounts are subject to a finance charge of 1.5% per month on any outstanding balance, or the maximum permitted by law, whichever is lower, plus all expenses of collection and may result in immediate termination of Services.

Customer shall be responsible for all taxes associated with Services other than U.S. taxes based on Clearscope’s net income.

7. Term and termination

Subject to earlier termination as provided below, the Services are provided for the initial subscription period as specified in the plan level, and shall be automatically renewed for additional periods of the same duration as the initial subscription period, unless either party requests termination at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the then-current term.

In addition to any other remedies it may have, either party may also terminate Services upon thirty (30) days’ notice (or, in Clearscope’s case, without notice in the case of nonpayment by Customer or other good cause), if the other party materially breaches any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement.

Upon any termination, Clearscope will make all Customer Data available to Customer for electronic retrieval for a period of thirty (30) days, but thereafter Clearscope may, but is not obligated to, delete stored Customer Data.

Upon termination of Services, Customer will pay in full for the Services up to and including the last day on which the Services are provided.

All sections of this Agreement which by their nature should survive termination will survive termination, including, without limitation, accrued rights to payment, confidentiality obligations, warranty disclaimers, and limitations of liability.

8. Warranty and disclaimer

Clearscope shall use reasonable efforts consistent with prevailing industry standards to maintain the Services in a manner which minimizes errors and interruptions in the Services. Services may be temporarily unavailable for scheduled maintenance or for unscheduled maintenance, either by Clearscope or by third-party providers, or because of other causes beyond Clearscope’s reasonable control, but Clearscope shall use reasonable efforts to provide advance notice in writing or by e-mail of any scheduled disruption to Services. However, Clearscope does not warrant that the Services will be uninterrupted or error free; nor does it make any warranty as to the results that may be obtained from use of the Services. Except as expressly set forth in this section, Services are provided “as is” and Clearscope disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including, but not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement of the rights of any other individuals or entities.

9. Indemnity

Clearscope shall hold Customer harmless from liability to third parties resulting from infringement by the Service of any United States patent or any copyright or misappropriation of any trade secret, provided Clearscope is promptly notified of any and all threats, claims and proceedings related thereto and given reasonable assistance and the opportunity to assume sole control over defense and settlement; Clearscope will not be responsible for any settlement it does not approve in writing. The foregoing obligations do not apply with respect to portions or components of the Services (i) not supplied by Clearscope, (ii) made in whole or in part in accordance with Customer specifications or designs, (iii) that are modified after delivery by Clearscope, (iv) combined with other products, processes or materials where the alleged infringement relates to any aspect of such combination, (v) where Customer continues allegedly infringing activity after being notified thereof or after being informed of modifications that would have avoided the alleged infringement, or (vi) where Customer’s use of the Services is not strictly in accordance with this Agreement. If, due to a claim of infringement, the Services are held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be or are believed by Clearscope to be infringing, Clearscope may, at its option and expense (a) replace or modify the Services to be non-infringing provided that such modification or replacement contains substantially similar features and functionality, (b) obtain for Customer a license to continue using the Services, or (c) if neither of the foregoing is commercially practicable, terminate this Agreement and Customer’s rights hereunder, corresponding Services and provide Customer a refund of any prepaid, unused fees for the Services.

10. Limitation of liability

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Clearscope and its suppliers (including but not limited to all equipment and technology suppliers), officers, affiliates, representatives, contractors and employees shall not be responsible or liable with respect to any subject matter of this agreement or terms and conditions related thereto under any contract, negligence, strict liability or other theory: (a) for error or interruption of use or for loss or inaccuracy or corruption of data or cost of procurement of substitute goods, services or technology or loss of business; (b) for any indirect, exemplary, incidental, special or consequential damages; (c) for any matter beyond Clearscope’s reasonable control; or (d) for any amounts that, together with amounts associated with all other claims, exceed the fees paid by Customer to Clearscope for the Services under this agreement in the 12 months prior to the act that gave rise to the liability, in each case, whether or not Clearscope has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

11. Miscellaneous

If any provision of this Agreement is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this Agreement will otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. This Agreement is not assignable, transferable or sublicensable by Customer except with Clearscope’s prior written consent. Clearscope may transfer and assign any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement without consent. This Agreement is the complete and exclusive statement of the mutual understanding of the parties and supersedes and cancels all previous written and oral agreements, communications and other understandings relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, and that all waivers and modifications must be in a writing signed by both parties, except as otherwise provided herein. No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment is created as a result of this Agreement and Customer does not have any authority of any kind to bind Clearscope in any respect whatsoever. In any action or proceeding to enforce rights under this Agreement, the prevailing party will be entitled to recover costs, expenses, and attorneys’ fees. All notices under this Agreement will be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given when received, if personally delivered; when receipt is electronically confirmed, if transmitted by facsimile or e-mail; the day after it is sent, if sent for next day delivery by recognized overnight delivery service; and upon receipt, if sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas without regard to its conflict of laws provisions.
