These Terms of Service define the terms by which subscribers may use the software platform and the accompanying software services and are an agreement between you (the “Subscriber’) and VELOXITY, LLC (“Veloxity”), who may each individually be referred to as a ‘Party” or collectively as the “Parties.” By subscribing to use the software platform and the software services, Whether by CLICKING A CHECK BOX INDICATING YOUR ACCEPTANCE, OR BY EXECUTING A SUBSCRIPTION FORM THAT REFERENCES THESE TERMS OF SERVICE,  you expressly acknowledge that you have read, accept, and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (HEREAFTER THE “AGREEMENT” OR THESE “TERMS OF SERVICE”), as well as any applicable laws.  THIS AGREEMENT IS EFFECTIVE BETWEEN SUBSCRIBER AND VELOXITY AS OF THE DATE OF SUBSCRIBER’S ACCEPTANCE OF THESE TERMS OF SERVICE.

IF YOU ARE ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT ON BEHALF OF A COMPANY OR OTHER LEGAL ENTITY, YOU REPRESENT THAT YOU HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO BIND SUCH ENTITY AND YOUR AFFILIATES TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE SUCH AUTHORITY, OR IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, YOU MUST NOT ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT AND MAY NOT USE THE SERVICE.

VELOXITY’S DIRECT COMPETITORS ARE PROHIBITED FROM ACCESSING THE SERVICES, EXCEPT WITH VELOXITY’S PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT. IN ADDITION, THE SOFTWARE SERVICES MAY NOT BE ACCESSED FOR PURPOSES OF MONITORING THEIR AVAILABILITY, PERFORMANCE OR FUNCTIONALITY, OR FOR ANY OTHER BENCHMARKING OR COMPETITIVE PURPOSES.

1. SUBSCRIPTION

For the avoidance of doubt, there shall be no downward adjustment of any subscription fees. Subscriber shall have the right to assign and reassign Authorized Users in its sole and absolute discretion.

(c) Restrictions.  Subscriber and its Authorized Users may not share, distribute, resell, rent, lease, transfer, create derivative works of the Software Services, or otherwise permit any third party to access, use, or display the Software Services or Add-On Services.  The Software Services and any modules comprising Add-On Services contain Veloxity’s trade secrets, and in order to protect those trade secrets, Subscriber and its Authorized Users agree not to take any action to reverse engineer, compile, translate, disassemble, copy, or create derivative works of the Software Services or Add-On Services, in whole or in part, nor to permit any third party to do so.  Any use of the Software Services by Subscriber or Authorized User that exceeds the scope of the subscription shall constitute a breach of these Terms of Service.

Veloxity reserves the right at any time to alter or discontinue any or all features, functionality, license terms, and other characteristics of the Software Services; provided, however, that in the event that any such alterations materially limit the features or functionality of the Software Services, Veloxity shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Subscriber with advanced notice thereof.  Any subsequent upgrade, enhancement or other change to the Software Services shall be owned by Veloxity and subject to the terms of this Agreement.

(c) Removal of Content. If Subscriber receives a notice from any third party that any of Subscriber’s content must be removed, modified and/or disabled to avoid violating applicable law, third-party rights, or the Acceptable Use Policy, Subscriber will promptly do so. If Subscriber does not take required action in accordance with the above, Veloxity may terminate the Software Services. If requested by Veloxity, Subscriber shall confirm such deletion and discontinuance of use in writing and Veloxity shall be authorized to provide a copy of such confirmation to any such third-party claimant or governmental authority, as applicable. In addition, if Veloxity is required by any third-party rights holder to remove any of Subscriber’s content or receives information that any such content provided to Subscriber may violate applicable law or third-party rights, Veloxity may discontinue Subscriber’s access to such content through the Software Services.

The parties hereby enter into the Data Processing Addendum, available at [https://www.veloxity.com/data-processing-addendum/] (as amended from time to time, the “DPA”), which is incorporated into this Agreement by reference. “Process” (including any grammatically inflected forms thereof) means any operation or set of operations which is performed on data or on sets of data, whether or not by automated means, including without limitation collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, access, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.

(e) Taxes and Other Fees. Veloxity subscription 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”). Subscriber is responsible for paying all Taxes incurred hereunder. If Veloxity has the legal obligation to pay or collect Taxes for which Subscriber is responsible under this Section 5, such Taxes will be collected along with the subscription fees for the applicable Term or Renewal Period in advance of the commencement of the applicable Term or Renewal Period.

6. TERM AND TERMINATION

(a) Trial Period. Veloxity may elect (in Veloxity’s sole discretion) to make the Software Services (or a restricted version thereof) available to Subscriber on a limited trial basis free of charge or at a fee for the sole purpose of facilitating Subscriber’s internal evaluation and testing of the Software Services, until the earlier of (i) thirty (30) days following the date Subscriber signs up for a trial subscription, or (ii) the commencement date of any purchased Software subscriptions ordered by Subscriber (“Trial Period”). Veloxity reserves the right to modify, cancel and/or limit the limited trial of the Software Services without notice at any time.

(b) Term Renewal. The subscription shall commence on the date Subscriber signs up for a subscription and will remain in effect for the subscription period designated (the “Term”). Upon expiration of the Term, the subscription will automatically renew at Veloxity’s then-current applicable fees for successive subscription periods (each period is a “Renewal Period”) to the extent permitted by applicable law.

(c) Termination. Subscriber may terminate its account at any time by providing written notice to Veloxity at [[email protected]] (provided that, in the event Subscriber seeks to terminate any pre-paid Software Services subscription, such termination shall only become effective from and after the expiration date of Subscriber’s then-current Software Services subscription). Veloxity may, in its sole discretion, for any reason or no reason, terminate this Agreement or any account (or any part thereof, including any Software Services subscription attributable to such account). To the extent permitted by applicable Law, with respect to any paid Software Services subscription, Subscriber agrees and acknowledges that, in the event Veloxity terminates this Agreement under this Section 6 Subscriber shall not be entitled to any refund for any amounts which were pre-paid on behalf of Subscriber’s account prior to any termination of Subscriber’s account. By accessing Subscriber’s account, Subscriber acknowledges that, although under certain circumstances, users located in the European Economic Area may have a right to cancel prepaid account subscriptions within 14 days of signing up for, upgrading to, or renewing an account, PERFORMANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT HAS BEGUN UPON ACCESSING THE SOFTWARE ACCOUNT AND SUBSCRIBER THEREBY LOSES ANY RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL SUBSCRIBER MAY HAVE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING APPLICABLE EUROPEAN UNION LAW, IN RESPECT OF THE PURCHASE OF ANY DIGITAL CONTENT HEREUNDER, AND SUBSCRIBER THEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT SUBSCRIBER MAY HAVE TO A REFUND OF ANY AMOUNTS WHICH WERE PRE-PAID ON BEHALF OF SUBSCRIBER’S ACCOUNT PRIOR TO ANY TERMINATION OF SUBSCRIBER’S ACCOUNT.

(e) Force Majeure. Except with respect to Subscriber’s payment obligations under this Agreement, the failure of either party to perform any obligation by reason of “acts of God,” acts of governments, terrorism, riots, wars, accidents, or deficiencies in materials or transportation, or other causes of any nature beyond its reasonable control shall not be deemed to be a breach of these Terms of Service, provided that the nonperforming or delayed Party provides to the other Party written notice of the existence and nature of such reason for the nonperformance and delay, and resumes performance immediately upon the elimination of the relevant force majeure. In the event that the force majeure event continues for more than thirty (30) days, then the non-delayed Party may terminate the subscription.

(f) Data Expungement. All Subscriber Data uploaded by Subscriber to the Software Services will be purged (i) immediately following the expiration of the Trial Period and (ii) within fourteen (14) days following expiration or termination of any Term or Renewal Period.

8. CONFIDENTIALITY

(a) Definition of Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” means all proprietary, non-public information disclosed by either party (“Disclosing Party”) to the other party (“Receiving Party”), whether orally or in writing, including but not limited to Subscriber Data (which shall be Subscriber’s Confidential Information), the Software Services (which shall be Veloxity’s Confidential Information), the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including pricing) (which shall be Veloxity’s Confidential Information), 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 breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party, or (iv) was independently developed by the Receiving Party without access to Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information. For the avoidance of doubt, the non-disclosure obligations set forth in this “Confidentiality” Section 8 apply to Confidential Information exchanged between the parties in connection with the evaluation of the Software Services.

(b) Protection of Confidential Information. As between the Subscriber and Veloxity, each party retains all ownership rights in and to its Confidential Information. Each Receiving Party shall hold in confidence the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party. 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 employees, independent contractors, legal counsel, and accountants 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.

(c) 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. Disclosures made under this paragraph shall not otherwise exempt the disclosed Confidential Information from protection under this Agreement.

9. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES & DISCLAIMERS

10. INDEMNIFICATION

Subscriber shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Veloxity and its members, managers, officers, employees, independent contractors, representatives, agents, and third-party advisors against any claim, loss, liability, damage, or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from (a) any acts or omissions by Subscriber or an Authorized User, including any use or misuse of data uploaded to the Software Services and/or the Software Platform, whether by an Authorized User or by any third-party subscriber or authorized user, (b) any breach of this Agreement by Subscriber or any Authorized User, including any breach by Subscriber or any Authorized User of Section 4 above; (c) any misappropriation of trade secrets by Subscriber or an Authorized User; (d) any infringement by Subscriber or Authorized User of intellectual property in the Software Services, Software Platform, or Add-On Services, the logos or trademarks, content, or any third-party intellectual property rights; (e) any failure to make any payment due and payable pursuant to these Terms of Service; or (f) any violation of any applicable laws or regulations of any state, federal, or international government or regulatory agency.

THE FOREGOING LIMITATION WILL APPLY WHETHER AN ACTION IS IN CONTRACT OR TORT AND REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY.

(b) Exclusion of Consequential and Related Damages. IN NO EVENT WILL VELOXITY HAVE ANY LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, REVENUES, GOODWILL, OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, COVER, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, WHETHER AN ACTION IS IN CONTRACT OR TORT AND REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES OR IF ITS REMEDY OTHERWISE FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. THE FOREGOING DISCLAIMER WILL NOT APPLY TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY LAW.

SUBSCRIBER AND VELOXITY EACH EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO ASSERT ANY CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY AS A REPRESENTATIVE OR MEMBER IN ANY CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, EXCEPT WHERE SUCH WAIVER IS PROHIBITED BY LAW OR DEEMED BY A COURT OF LAW TO BE AGAINST PUBLIC POLICY.
