If Customer exceeds a contractual usage limit, Chassi may work with Customer to seek to reduce Customer’s usage so that it conforms to that limit.

If Customer does not take required action, in accordance with the above, or if in Chassi’s judgment continued violation is likely to reoccur, Chassi may disable the applicable Service and/or Third-Party Service. If requested by Chassi, Customer shall confirm deletion and discontinuance of use of such Third-Party Service in writing and Chassi shall be authorized to provide a copy of such confirmation to any such third-party claimant or governmental authority, as applicable.

4. Third-Party Products and Services

4.1 Third-Party Products and Services. Chassi or third parties may make available  third-party products or services, including, for example, Third-Party Services and implementation and other consulting services. Any acquisition by Customer of such products or services, and any exchange of data between Customer and any third party provider, product or service is solely between Customer and the applicable third party provider. Chassi does not warrant or support Third-Party Services or other third party products or services, whether or not they are designated by Chassi as “certified” or otherwise, unless expressly provided otherwise in an Order Form. Chassi is not responsible for any disclosure, modification or deletion of Customer Data resulting from access by such Third-Party Service or its provider.

 

4.2 Integration with Third-Party Services. The Services may contain features designed to interoperate with Third-Party Services. Chassi cannot guarantee the continued availability of such Service features, and may cease providing them without entitling Customer to any refund, credit, or other compensation, if for example and without limitation, the provider of a Third-Party Service ceases to make the Third-Party Service available for interoperation with the corresponding Service features in a manner acceptable to Chassi.

 

5.  Fees and Payment

5.1 Fees. Customer will pay all fees specified in Order Forms. Except as otherwise specified herein or in an Order Form, (i) fees are based on Services subscriptions purchased and not actual usage, (ii) payment obligations are non-cancelable and fees paid are non-refundable, and (iii) quantities purchased cannot be decreased during the relevant subscription term.

5.2 Invoicing and Payment. Chassi will invoice Customer in accordance with the relevant Order Form. Unless otherwise stated in the Order Form, invoiced fees are due net 30 days from the invoice date. Customer is responsible for providing complete and accurate billing and contact information to Chassi and notifying Chassi of any changes to such information.

5.3 Taxes. Chassi’s fees do not include any taxes, levies, duties or similar governmental assessments of any nature, including, for example, value-added, sales, use or withholding taxes, assessable by any jurisdiction whatsoever (collectively, “Taxes”). Customer is responsible for paying all Taxes associated with its purchases hereunder. If Chassi has the legal obligation to pay or collect Taxes for which Customer is responsible under this section, Chassi will invoice Customer and Customer will pay that amount unless Customer provides Chassi with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority. For clarity, Chassi is solely responsible for taxes assessable against it based on its income, property and employees.

5.4 Overdue Charges. If any invoiced amount is not received by Chassi by the due date, then without limiting Chassi’s rights or remedies, (a) those charges may accrue late interest at the rate of 1.5% of the outstanding balance per month, or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower, and/or (b) Chassi may condition future subscription renewals and Order Forms on payment terms shorter than those specified in the “Invoicing and Payment” section above.

5.5 Suspension of Service and Acceleration. If any charge owing by Customer under this or any other agreement for services is 30 days or more overdue, (or 10 or more days overdue in the case of amounts Customer has authorized Chassi to charge to Customer’s credit card), Chassi may, without limiting its other rights and remedies, accelerate Customer’s unpaid fee obligations under such agreements so that all such obligations become immediately due and payable, and suspend Services until such amounts are paid in full, provided that, other than for customers paying by credit card or direct debit whose payment has been declined, Chassi will give Customer at least 10 days’ prior notice that its account is overdue, in accordance with the “Manner of Giving Notice” section below for billing notices, before suspending services to Customer.

5.6 Payment Disputes. Chassi will not exercise its rights under the “Overdue Charges” or “Suspension of Service and Acceleration” section above if Customer is disputing the applicable charges reasonably and in good faith and is cooperating diligently to resolve the dispute.

5.7 Indirect Orders. Sections 5.1 to 5.4 only apply to Order Forms placed directly with Chassi. If Customer purchases any Service through a Chassi-authorized reseller or otherwise uses the Service via a Chassi-authorized consultant, then the fees will be as set forth between Customer and such reseller or consultant, and Customer will pay the reseller or consultant for such purchase, and different terms may apply.

 

6.  Proprietary Rights and Licenses

6.1  Reservation of Rights. Subject to the limited rights expressly granted hereunder, Chassi, its Affiliates, its licensors reserve all of their right, title and interest in and to the Services, including all of their related intellectual property rights. No rights are granted to Customer hereunder other than as expressly set forth herein.

6.2  License by Customer to Chassi. Customer grants Chassi, its Affiliates and applicable contractors a worldwide, limited-term license to host, copy, use, transmit, and display any Third-Party Services and program code created by or for Customer using a Service or for use by Customer with the Services, and Customer Data, each as appropriate for Chassi to provide and ensure proper operation of the Services, and associated systems in accordance with this Agreement. If Customer chooses to use a Third-Party Service with a Service, Customer grants Chassi permission to allow the Third-Party Service and its provider to access Customer Data and information about Customer’s usage of the Third-Party Service as appropriate for the interoperation of that Third-Party Service with the Service. Subject to the limited licenses granted herein, Chassi acquires no right, title or interest from Customer or its licensors under this Agreement in or to any Customer Data, Third-Party Service or such program code.

 

6.3  License by Customer to Use Feedback. Customer grants to Chassi and its Affiliates a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free license to use, distribute, disclose, and make and incorporate into its services any suggestion, enhancement request, recommendation, correction or other feedback provided by Customer or Users relating to the operation of Chassi’s or its Affiliates’ services.

 

7.  Confidentiality

7.1  Definition of Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” means all information disclosed by a party (“Disclosing Party”) to the other party (“Receiving Party”), whether orally or in writing, that is designated as confidential or that reasonably should be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information and the circumstances of disclosure. Confidential Information of Customer includes Customer Data; Confidential Information of Chassi includes the Services, and the terms and conditions of this Agreement and all Order Forms (including pricing). Confidential Information of each party includes business and marketing plans, technology and technical information, product plans and designs, and business processes disclosed by such party. However, Confidential Information does not include any information that (i) is or becomes generally known to the public without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party, (ii) was known to the Receiving Party prior to its disclosure by the Disclosing Party without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party, (iii) is received from a third party without knowledge of any breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party, or (iv) was independently developed by the Receiving Party. For the avoidance of doubt, the non-disclosure obligations set forth in this “Confidentiality” section apply to Confidential Information exchanged between the parties in connection with the evaluation of additional Chassi services.

 

7.2  Protection of Confidential Information. As between the parties, each party retains all ownership rights in and to its Confidential Information. The Receiving Party will use the same degree of care that it uses to protect the confidentiality of its own confidential information of like kind (but not less than reasonable care) to (i) not use any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party for any purpose outside the scope of this Agreement and (ii) except as otherwise authorized by the Disclosing Party in writing, limit access to Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to those of its and its Affiliates’ employees and contractors who need that access for purposes consistent with this Agreement and who have signed confidentiality agreements with the Receiving Party containing protections not materially less protective of the Confidential Information than those herein. Neither party will disclose the terms of this Agreement or any Order Form to any third party other than its Affiliates, legal counsel and accountants without the other party’s prior written consent, provided that a party that makes any such disclosure to its Affiliate, legal counsel or accountants will remain responsible for such Affiliate’s, legal counsel’s or accountant’s compliance with this “Confidentiality” section. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Chassi may disclose the terms of this Agreement and any applicable Order Form to a contractor or Third-Party Service Provider to the extent necessary to perform Chassi’s obligations under this Agreement, under terms of confidentiality materially as protective as set forth herein.

7.3  Compelled Disclosure. The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to the extent compelled by law to do so, provided the Receiving Party gives the Disclosing Party prior notice of the compelled disclosure (to the extent legally permitted) and reasonable assistance, at the Disclosing Party’s cost, if the Disclosing Party wishes to contest the disclosure. If the Receiving Party is compelled by law to disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information as part of a civil proceeding to which the Disclosing Party is a party, and the Disclosing Party is not contesting the disclosure, the Disclosing Party will reimburse the Receiving Party for its reasonable cost of compiling and providing secure access to that Confidential Information.

8.  Representations, Warranties, Exclusive Remedies, and Disclaimers

8.1  Representations. Each party represents that it has validly entered into this Agreement and has the legal power to do so.

SERVICES PROVIDED FREE OF CHARGE ARE PROVIDED “AS IS,” AND AS AVAILABLE EXCLUSIVE OF ANY WARRANTY WHATSOEVER.

9.  Mutual Indemnification

9.1  Indemnification by Chassi. Chassi will defend Customer against any claim, demand, suit or proceeding made or brought against Customer by a third party alleging that any Service infringes or misappropriates such third party’s intellectual property rights (a “Claim Against Customer”), and will indemnify Customer from any damages, attorney fees and costs finally awarded against Customer as a result of, or for amounts paid by Customer under a settlement approved by Chassi in writing of, a Claim Against Customer, provided Customer (a) promptly gives Chassi written notice of the Claim Against Customer, (b) gives Chassi sole control of the defense and settlement of the Claim Against Customer (except that Chassi may not settle any Claim Against Customer unless it unconditionally releases Customer of all liability), and (c) gives Chassi all reasonable assistance, at Chassi’s expense. If Chassi receives information about an infringement or misappropriation claim related to a Service, Chassi may in its discretion and at no cost to Customer (i) modify the Services so that they are no longer claimed to infringe or misappropriate, without breaching Chassi’s warranties under “Chassi Warranties” above, (ii) obtain a license for Customer’s continued use of that Service in accordance with this Agreement, or (iii) terminate Customer’s subscriptions for that Service upon 30 days’ written notice and refund Customer any prepaid fees covering the remainder of the term of the terminated subscriptions. The above defense and indemnification obligations do not apply if (I) the allegation does not state with specificity that the Services are the basis of the Claim Against Customer; (II) a Claim Against Customer arises from the use or combination of the Services or any part thereof with software, hardware, data, or processes not provided by Chassi, if the Services or use thereof would not infringe without such combination; (III) a Claim Against Customer arises from Services under an Order Form for which there is no charge; or (IV) a Claim against Customer arises from a Third-Party Service or Customer’s breach of this Agreement, the Documentation or applicable Order Forms.

9.2  Indemnification by Customer. Customer will defend Chassi and its Affiliates against any claim, demand, suit or proceeding made or brought against Chassi by a third party (a) alleging that the combination of a Third-Party Service or configuration provided by Customer and used with the Services, infringes or misappropriates such third party’s intellectual property rights, or (b) arising from (i) Customer’s use of the Services  in an unlawful manner or in violation of the Agreement, the Documentation, or Order Form, (ii) any Customer Data or Customer’s use of Customer Data with the Services, or (iii) a Third-Party Service provided by Customer (each a “Claim Against Chassi”), and will indemnify Chassi from any damages, attorney fees and costs finally awarded against Chassi as a result of, or for any amounts paid by Chassi under a settlement approved by Customer in writing of, a Claim Against Chassi, provided Chassi (A) promptly gives Customer written notice of the Claim Against Chassi, (B) gives Customer sole control of the defense and settlement of the Claim Against Chassi (except that Customer may not settle any Claim Against Chassi unless it unconditionally releases Chassi of all liability), and (C) gives Customer all reasonable assistance, at Customer’s expense. The above defense and indemnification obligations do not apply if a Claim Against Chassi arises from Chassi’s breach of this Agreement, the Documentation or applicable Order Forms.

9.3  Exclusive Remedy. This “Mutual Indemnification” section states the indemnifying party’s sole liability to, and the indemnified party’s exclusive remedy against, the other party for any third-party claim described in this section.

THE FOREGOING DISCLAIMER WILL NOT APPLY TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY LAW.
