- 12.2.Obligations: The Recipient shall use the Discloser’s Confidential Information solely to meet its obligations or exercise rights under this Agreement and shall not disclose it further. The Recipient will protect the Discloser's Confidential Information with the same degree of care it applies to its own similar information, but no less than reasonable care.

- 12.6.Breach and Remedies: In the event of a breach of these confidentiality obligations, the non-breaching party may suffer irreparable harm, and monetary damages may be insufficient. Therefore, the non-breaching party is entitled to seek injunctive relief and any other remedies from a court.
- 12.7.Aggregate Data: Notwithstanding the confidentiality provisions, the Company is permitted to use and disclose information gathered or received during the provision of Services in a non-identifiable aggregate form to develop, enhance, and market its Services or other offerings.

The Company has the right to change the Services at any time, which could include adding, removing, or changing features, services, or sources of demand. If any of these changes significantly reduce the Services' usefulness, as the Client reasonably decides, then the Client can end this Agreement by notifying the Company in writing, without having to pay extra fees, costs, or penalties, including for any lost profits or future fees. However, the Client must still pay for any Services received before ending the Agreement. Some updates to the Services will be provided to the Client for free. If the Company introduces new functions that are not free for all clients, the Client might have to pay extra or agree to new terms, which would need to be confirmed in writing by both Parties.
- General Terms
- 14.1.Entire Agreement. This Agreement is the only agreement between the parties about its subject and this Agreement supersedes all prior or contemporaneous statements (whether in writing or not) about its subject. Company expressly rejects any terms included in Client’s purchase order or similar document, which may only be used for accounting or administrative purposes.
- 14.2.Modifications, Severability, and Waiver. Any waiver, modification, or change to the Agreement must be in writing and signed or electronically accepted by each party. However, the Company may update the SLA, the Security Policy, or the Acceptable Use Policy by giving the Client 30 days prior notice. During the 30-day notice period, Client may terminate the Agreement or affected Order Form upon notice if the update is a material reduction from the prior version and Company cannot reasonably restore the prior version or a comparable alternative. If any term of this Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable by a relevant court or governing body, the remaining terms of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect. The failure of a party to enforce a term or to exercise an option or right in this Agreement will not constitute a waiver by that party of the term, option, or right.
- 14.3.Construction. This Agreement has been negotiated by the Parties and will be interpreted fairly in accordance with its terms and without any construction in favor of or against either Party.
- 14.4.Governing Law and Chosen Courts. New York law will govern all interpretations and disputes about this Agreement, without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. The parties will bring any legal suit, action, or proceeding about this Agreement in the courts of New York County and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the New York County courts.
- 14.5.Injunctive Relief. Despite Section 14.4 (Governing Law and Chosen Courts), a breach of Section 12 (Confidentiality) or the violation of a party’s intellectual property rights may cause irreparable harm for which monetary damages cannot adequately compensate. As a result, upon the actual or threatened breach of Section 12 (Confidentiality) or violation of a party’s intellectual property rights, the non-breaching or non-violating party may seek appropriate equitable relief, including an injunction, in any court of competent jurisdiction without the need to post a bond and without limiting its other rights or remedies.
- 14.6.Non-Exhaustive Remedies. Except where the Agreement provides for an exclusive remedy, seeking or exercising a remedy does not limit the other rights or remedies available to a party.
- 14.7.Assignment. Neither party may assign any rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party. However, either party may assign this Agreement upon notice if the assigning party undergoes a merger, change of control, reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all its equity, business, or assets to which this Agreement relates. Any attempted but non-permitted assignment is void. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their permitted successors and assigns.
- 14.8.No Publicity. Neither party may publicly announce the existence of this Agreement without the prior written approval of the other party.

- 14.10.Independent Contractors. The parties are independent contractors, not agents, partners, or joint venturers. Neither party is authorized to bind the other to any liability or obligation.
- 14.11.Use of Subcontractors. Company may perform any of its obligations hereunder through one or more agents, subcontractors or third-party providers, provided that Company remains responsible to Client for the performance of the Services and for the acts and omissions of any agent, subcontractor or third-party provider.

- 14.13.Force Majeure. Neither party will be liable for a delay or failure to perform its obligations of this Agreement if caused by a Force Majeure Event. A “Force Majeure Event” means an unforeseen event outside a party’s reasonable control where the affected party took reasonable measures to avoid or mitigate the impacts of the event. Examples of these kinds of events include unpredicted natural disasters like a major earthquake, war, pandemic, riot, act of terrorism, or public utility or internet failure. This section does not excuse Client’s obligations to pay fees.
- 14.14.Export Controls. Client may not remove or export from the United States or allow the export or re-export of the Services or any related technology or materials in violation of any restrictions, laws, or regulations of the United States Department of Commerce, the United States Department of Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control, or any other United States or foreign agency or authority.
- 14.15.Anti-Bribery. Neither party will take any action that would be a violation of any Applicable Laws that prohibit the offering, giving, promising to offer or give, or receiving, directly or indirectly, money or anything of value to any third party to assist Company or Client in retaining or obtaining business. Examples of these kinds of laws include the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the UK Bribery Act 2010.

- 14.17.Signature. This Agreement may be signed in counterparts, including by electronic copies or acceptance mechanisms. Each copy will be deemed an original and all copies, when taken together, will be the same agreement.
- 14.18.Conflicts.
