These Third Party Services may integrate with the Services and are not licensed by Techo pursuant to this Agreement, but are governed by the third-party provider’s terms and conditions and privacy policies that accompany them, which Customer must separately accept. By enabling Third Party Services, Customer understands and agrees that Techo is neither responsible for Customer’s use of these Third Party Services, nor does it provide any warranties whatsoever for these Third-Party Services.

Fees and Payment

Fees and Payment All charges associated with the Customer’s Account (“Fees”) are set forth in the applicable SOF or Website and are due and payable in full within thirty (30) days from the invoice date or as stated in the applicable SOF. Payment obligations are non-cancelable, regardless of utilization by the Customer and except as expressly permitted in this Agreement, Fees paid are non-refundable. Customers will pay the Fees through an accepted payment method as specified in the applicable SOF or Website. Unless otherwise set forth in the SOF, the Customer’s subscription to the Services will renew automatically for a Subscription Term in accordance with the renewal terms and conditions set forth in Section 6(b) below. During the Term, the Customer may not reduce their Service Plan or User count.

Late Payments If undisputed Fees are more than thirty (30) days overdue, then, following written notification from Techo, Techo may suspend Customer’s access to the Techo Digital, including, without limitation, Customer’s Account, until such unpaid Fees are paid in full.

Payment Disputes Techo will not exercise its rights under Section 5(b) (Late Payments), 6(d) (Termination for Cause), or Section 6(c)(i) (Suspension of Service) with respect to non-payment by Customer if Customer is disputing the applicable charges reasonably and in good faith and is cooperating diligently to resolve the dispute. If the parties are unable to resolve such a dispute within thirty (30) days, each party will have the right to seek any remedies it may have under this Agreement, at law or in equity, irrespective of any terms that would limit remedies on account of a dispute. For clarity, any undisputed amounts must be paid in full.

Applicable Taxes The Fees do not include any taxes, levies, duties, or similar governmental assessments, including value-added, sales, use, or withholding taxes assessable by any local, state, provincial or foreign jurisdiction (collectively “Taxes”). Customer agrees to pay applicable direct or indirect Taxes associated with its purchases hereunder, which, to the extent, Techo is legally required to collect the same, will be itemized on the Techo invoice.  If Customer has an obligation to withhold any amounts under any law or tax regime, Customer will gross up the payments so that the Techo receives the amount actually quoted and invoiced.  If Techo has the legal obligation to pay or collect Taxes for which Customer is responsible under this section, the appropriate amount will be invoiced and paid by the Customer, unless, prior to the invoice date, the Customer provides Techo with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority.

Orders by Affiliates Customer’s Affiliates may purchase Services directly from Techo by executing a SOF which is governed by the terms of this Agreement. Such SOF will establish a new and separate agreement between the Customer’s Affiliate and the Techo entity signing such SOF. If the Affiliate resides in a different country than the Customer, then the SOF may include modifications to terms applicable to the transaction(s) (including but not limited to tax terms and governing law).

Purchases from Channel Partners Customer may procure the use of any Services, Software, or Mobile Apps from a third-party authorized reseller of Techo, including third-party marketplaces (“Channel Partner”) pursuant to a separate agreement with the Channel Partner. Customer’s use of any Services, Software, or Mobile Apps procured through a Channel Partner will be subject to the terms of this Agreement, and all fees payable (including applicable taxes) for such use will be payable to the Channel Partner pursuant to the terms agreed to between Customer and Channel Partner.  Customer understands and agrees that, if Customer purchased the Services, Software, or Mobile Apps subscriptions via a Channel Partner, service credits and refunds payable under this Agreement may be payable or applied by Channel Partner acting on behalf of Techo in proportion to the fees paid by Customer to the Channel Partner, and the discharge by the Channel Partner of such obligations will relieve Techo of the same under this Agreement

Term, Termination, and Suspension

Term This Agreement is effective as of the Effective Date (or, for online Customers, the date of sign up on the Website) and will continue through the then-current Subscription Term. Service Plans commence on the start date specified in the relevant SOF (or, for online Customers, the date of signing up on the Website) and continue for the Subscription Term specified therein

Renewal Unless a party gives written notice of non-renewal at least sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the relevant Subscription Term, Service Plans will automatically renew for a period equal to the previous Subscription Term or one year (whichever is shorter). Tech reserves the right to increase the Fees at the beginning of each Subscription Term.

Suspension Techo may suspend Customer’s access to the Services, Software, Mobile Apps and/or Customer’s Account, on the following grounds: (i) late payment/non-payment of undisputed Fees, per the process noted in Section 5(b) above; (ii) non-renewal of the Services by Customer; (iii) Customer’s or its Users’ breach of Section 2 (Use Restrictions); or (iv) in the event suspension is deemed necessary by Techo to prevent or address the introduction of Malicious Software (as defined in Section 8.b below), a security incident, or other harm to Customer, Techo, or Techo' other customers. Techo will notify the Customer of any such suspension. Techo will use diligent efforts to attempt to limit, where commercially feasible, the suspension to affected Users or Techo Digital, and will immediately restore the availability of the same as soon as the issues leading to the suspension are resolved. Such suspension will in no way affect the Customer’s other obligations under this Agreement.

Termination for Cause Either party may terminate this Agreement by written notice to the other party in the event that (i) such other party materially breaches this Agreement and does not cure such breach within thirty (30) days of such notice, or (ii) immediately in the event the other party becomes the subject of a petition in bankruptcy or any other proceeding relating to insolvency, receivership, liquidation or assignment for the benefit of creditors.

Free Trial Customers Upon the expiration of the Customer’s free trial, Techo may immediately suspend the Customer’s access to the Services. Customers must export Customer Data before the end of the free trial or Customer Data will be permanently deleted. Techo will have no obligation to maintain, store or otherwise retain Customer Data beyond the end of the free trial period.

Data Export Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement or any SOF for any reason, Customer’s access to the Services, Software, Mobile Apps, APIs, and other Techo Digital will terminate. Techo strongly recommends that the Customer export all Customer Data before the Customer closes the Customer’s Account. Customer agrees, following the termination or expiration of this Agreement or an unrenewed Subscription Term, that Customer Data will be retained or deleted in accordance with the Supplemental Terms, as applicable to Customer. Where Customer Data is retained by Techo and can be exported, and provided that Customer is current on its payment obligations as described in Section 5, Customer may contact Techo within fourteen (14) days following the effective date of termination to have Techo export Customer’s Customer Data. Customer Data cannot be recovered once it is deleted.

Confidentiality

Each party will protect the other’s Confidential Information from unauthorized use, access, or disclosure in the same manner as it protects its own Confidential Information of similar nature or importance, and in any event, using no less than reasonable care. Except as otherwise expressly permitted pursuant to this Agreement, the receiving party may use the disclosing party’s Confidential Information solely to exercise its respective rights and perform its respective obligations under this Agreement and will disclose such Confidential Information solely to those of its respective employees, representatives, and agents who have a need to know such Confidential Information for such purposes and who are bound by obligations to maintain the confidentiality of, and not misuse such Confidential Information. The provisions of this section will supersede any non-disclosure agreement by and between the parties entered into prior to this Agreement that would purport to address the confidentiality of any information shared by the parties, including Customer Data, and such agreement will have no further force or effect with respect to the foregoing. If the receiving party is required by law or court order to disclose Confidential Information of the disclosing party, then the receiving party will, to the extent legally permitted, provide the disclosing party with the advance written notification and cooperate in any effort to obtain confidential treatment of the Confidential Information. The receiving party acknowledges that disclosure of Confidential Information would cause substantial harm for which damages alone would not be a sufficient remedy, and therefore that upon any such disclosure by the receiving party, the disclosing party will be entitled to seek appropriate equitable relief in addition to whatever other remedies it might have at law.

Warranties/Disclaimer of Warranties

Indemnification

Indemnification by Techo Techo will defend Customer and its Affiliates, from any third party claim alleging that Customer’s use of the Techo Digital as contemplated hereunder infringes such third party’s patent, copyright, and/or trademark intellectual property rights (an “IP Claim”), and will indemnify and hold harmless Customer and its Affiliates from and against any damages and costs awarded against Customer or its Affiliates, or agreed in settlement by Techo (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) resulting from such IP Claim. Techo will have no liability or obligation with respect to any IP Claim if such claim is caused in whole or in part by (i) unauthorized use of the Techo Digital by Customer, its Affiliates or Users; (ii) modification of the Techo Digital by anyone other than Techo or its representatives; or (iii) the combination, operation or use of the Techo Digital with other data, hardware or software not provided by Techo. If Customer’s use of the Techo Digital results (or in Techo's opinion is likely to result) in an IP Claim, Techo may at its own option and expense (a) procure for Customer the right to continue using the foregoing items as set forth hereunder; (b) replace or modify them to make them non-infringing; or (c) if options (a) or (b) are not commercially reasonable as determined by Techo, then either Customer or Techo may terminate Customer’s subscription to the Service, whereupon Techo will refund Customer, on a pro-rated basis, any Fees Customer has previously paid Techo for the corresponding unused portion. The sections above state Techo’s entire liability and the Customer’s exclusive remedy with respect to an IP Claim.

Indemnification by Customer Customer will defend Techo and its Affiliates from any third party claim (“Claim”), and will indemnify and hold harmless Techo and its Affiliates from and against any damages and costs awarded against Techo and its Affiliates, or agreed in settlement by Customer (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) resulting from such Claim, to the extent caused by: (i) Customer’s or its Affiliate’s unauthorized supply, disclosure, or processing of Customer Data, including Personal Data therein, or (ii) Customer’s or its Affiliate’s violation of laws applicable to Customer’s or its Affiliate’s business.

Failure by the indemnified party to notify the indemnifying party of a claim under this Section will not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations under this Section, however, the indemnifying party will not be liable for any litigation expenses that the indemnified party incurred prior to the time when notice is given or for any damages and/or costs resulting from any material prejudice caused by the delay or failure to provide notice to the indemnifying party in accordance with this Section. The indemnifying party may not settle any claim that would bind the indemnified party to any obligation (other than payment covered by the indemnifying party or ceasing to use infringing materials) or require any admission of fault by the indemnified party, without the indemnified party’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Any indemnification obligation under this Section 10 will not apply if the indemnified party settles or makes any admission with respect to a claim without the indemnifying party’s prior written consent.
