BY MUTUALLY EXECUTING ONE OR MORE ORDER FORMS WITH COURTED WHICH REFERENCE THESE TERMS (EACH, AN “ORDER FORM”), YOU (“CUSTOMER”) AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS (TOGETHER WITH ALL ORDER FORMS, THE “AGREEMENT”) TO THE EXCLUSION OF ALL OTHER TERMS.

IF YOU ARE ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT ON BEHALF OF AN ENTITY, THEN YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOU ARE AUTHORIZED TO BIND SUCH ENTITY TO THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT. IF THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT ARE CONSIDERED AN OFFER, ACCEPTANCE IS EXPRESSLY LIMITED TO SUCH TERMS.

  1. Order Forms; Access to the Service. Upon mutual execution, each Order Form shall be incorporated into and form a part of the Agreement. For each Order Form, subject to Customer’s compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including any limitations and restrictions set forth on the applicable Order Form), Courted grants Customer a nonexclusive, limited, personal, nonsublicensable, nontransferable right and license to internally access and use the Courted product(s) and/or service(s) specified in such Order Form (collectively, the “Service,” or “Services”) during the applicable Order Form Term (as defined below) only for the internal business purposes of Customer, only as provided herein and only in accordance with Courted’s applicable official user documentation for such Service (the “Documentation”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Service includes all reports and other materials and information delivered or otherwise provided through use of the Service or in connection with Courted’s provision of Professional Services under this Agreement.
  2. Professional Services. Upon payment of any applicable fees set forth in each Order Form, Courted agrees to use reasonable commercial efforts to provide standard implementation assistance for the Service and other professional services, in each case, only if and to the extent such assistance and other professional services are set forth on such Order Form (collectively, “Professional Services”).
  3. Support; Service Levels. Subject to Customer’s payment of all applicable fees, Courted will provide support in accordance with Courted’s then-current standard Support Policy, the current version of which is set forth at https://hubs.ly/Q01zFnMy0. For the purposes of the Agreement, such support services are included in Professional Services.
  4. Service Updates. From time to time, Courted may provide upgrades, patches, enhancements, or fixes for the Services to its customers generally without additional charge (“Updates”), and such Updates will become part of the Services and subject to this Agreement; provided that Courted shall have no obligation under this Agreement or otherwise to provide any such Updates. Customer understands that Courted may make improvements and other modifications to the Services at any time in its sole discretion.
  5. Ownership; Feedback. As between the parties, Courted retains all right, title, and interest in and to the Services, and all software, products, works, and other intellectual property and moral rights related thereto or created, used, or provided by Courted for the purposes of this Agreement, including any copies and derivative works of the foregoing. Any software which is distributed or otherwise provided to Customer hereunder (including without limitation any software identified on an Order Form) shall be deemed a part of the “Services” and subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. No rights or licenses are granted except as expressly and unambiguously set forth in this Agreement. Customer may (but is not obligated to) provide suggestions, comments or other feedback to Courted with respect to the Service (“Feedback”). Courted acknowledges and agrees that all Feedback is provided “AS IS” and without warranty of any kind.

  6. Fees; Payment. Customer shall pay Courted fees as set forth in each Order Form (“Fees”). Unless otherwise specified in an Order Form, all Fees shall be invoiced monthly in advance and all invoices issued under this Agreement are payable in U.S. dollars within thirty (30) days from date of invoice. Past due invoices are subject to interest on any outstanding balance of the lesser of 1.5% per month or the maximum amount permitted by law. Customer shall be responsible for all taxes associated with the Services and Professional Services (excluding taxes based on Courted’s net income). All Fees paid are non-refundable and are not subject to set-off. If Customer exceeds any user or usage limitations set forth on an Order Form, then (i) Courted shall invoice Customer for such additional users or usage at the overage rates set forth on the Order Form (or if no overage rates are set forth on the Order Form, at Courted’s then-current standard overage rates for such usage), in each case on a pro-rata basis from the first date of such excess usage through the end of the Order Form Initial Term or then-current Order Form Renewal Term (as applicable), and (ii) if such Order Form Term renews (in accordance with the section entitled “Term; Termination”, below), such renewal shall include the additional fees for such excess users and usage.
  7. Restrictions. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, Customer shall not (and shall not permit any third party to), directly or indirectly: (i) reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to discover the source code, object code, or underlying structure, ideas, or algorithms of the Service (except to the extent applicable laws specifically prohibit such restriction); (ii) modify, distribute, translate, or create derivative works based on the Service; (iii) copy, rent, lease, distribute, pledge, assign, or otherwise transfer or encumber rights to the Service, in whole or in part; (iv) use the Service or make available the Service, in whole or in part, for the benefit of a third party, including without limitation exporting or providing a screenshot of any content within the Service, or reports or other materials or information produced through use of the Service or any Professional Services; (v) remove or otherwise alter any proprietary notices or labels from the Service or any portion thereof; (vi) use the Service to build or improve an application or product that is competitive with any Courted product or service; (vii) interfere or attempt to interfere with the proper working of the Service or any activities conducted on the Service; or (viii) bypass any measures Courted may use to prevent or restrict access to the Service (or other accounts, computer systems or networks connected to the Service).

Customer is responsible and liable for all actions and inactions by and of its employees, contractors, consultants or by any third party that Customer permits to access or use the Services and Professional Services (if applicable) (collectively “Users”), as if such action or inaction were an action or inaction of Customer. Customer is responsible for maintaining control over Customer’s account, including the confidentiality of any login credentials, and is responsible for all activities that occur on or through Customer’s account and its Users’ accounts. Customer will not, and will not permit Users to, share User account credentials.
  8. Customer Data. For purposes of this Agreement, “Customer Data” shall mean any data, information or other material provided, uploaded, or submitted by Customer to the Service in the course of using the Service. Customer shall retain all right, title and interest in and to the Customer Data, including all intellectual property rights therein. Customer, not Courted, shall have sole responsibility for the accuracy, quality, integrity, legality, reliability, appropriateness, and intellectual property ownership or right to use of all Customer Data. Customer represents and warrants that it has all rights necessary to provide the Customer Data to Courted as contemplated hereunder, in each case without any infringement, violation or misappropriation of any third party rights (including, without limitation, intellectual property rights and rights of privacy). To the extent that the Customer Data includes any personal information, (i) Courted will process, retain, use, and disclose such personal information only as necessary to provide the Services and Professional Services (if applicable) hereunder and as otherwise permitted under this Agreement, which constitutes a business purpose, (ii) Courted agrees not to sell such personal data, to retain, use, or disclose such personal data for any commercial purpose other than the foregoing purposes, or to retain, use, or disclose such personal data outside of the scope of this Agreement. Courted understands its obligations under applicable data protection laws and will comply with them. Customer agrees and acknowledges that Customer Data may be irretrievably deleted if Customer’s account is ninety (90) days or more delinquent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Customer acknowledges and agrees that Courted may internally use and modify (but not disclose) Customer Data for the purposes of providing the Service to Customer.
  9. Usage Data. Courted may collect and analyze data relating to Customer’s use of the Services and Professional Services (if applicable) (“Usage Data”). Usage Data includes information relating to the provision, use, and performance of various aspects of the Services and Professional Services (if applicable) and related systems and technologies (including information provided by third-party analytical tools), for example whether Customer utilizes one functionality of the Services more than another or whether Customer utilizes the functionality of the Services consistently. Courted may analyze, copy, process, collect, use, disclose, and reproduce Usage Data for the purposes of: (i) complying with a regulatory inquiry or judicial action of a governmental body; and (ii) improving, testing, operating, promoting and marketing the Services and Professional Services, and developing new products, services, features, and functionality. For avoidance of doubt, Courted will not distribute Usage Data to other of Courted’s customers.
  10. Third Party Integrations. Customer acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Service may operate on, with or using application programming interfaces (APIs) and/or other services operated or provided by third parties (e.g., other vendors of Customer) (“Third Party Integrations”), (ii) the availability and operation of the Service or certain portions thereof may be dependent on Courted’s ability to access such Third Party Integrations, and (iii) Customer’s failure to provide adequate access or any retraction of permissions relating to such Third Party Integrations may result in a suspension or interruption of the Service. Customer hereby represents and warrants that it has all rights, licenses, permissions and consents necessary to connect, use and access any Third Party Integrations that it integrates with the Service, and Customer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Courted for all claims, damages and liabilities arising out of Customer’s use of any Third Party Integrations in connection with or through the Service. Courted cannot and does not guarantee that the Service shall incorporate (or continue to incorporate) any particular Third Party Integrations and does not make any representations or warranties with respect to Third Party Integrations. Customer is solely responsible for procuring any and all rights necessary for it to access Third Party Integrations (including any Customer Data or other information relating thereto) and for complying with any applicable terms or conditions thereof. Any exchange of data or other interaction between Customer and a third party provider is solely between Customer and such third party provider and is governed by such third party’s terms and conditions.
  11. Term; Termination. This Agreement shall commence upon the Effective Date of the first Order Form, and, unless earlier terminated in accordance herewith, shall last until the expiration of all Order Form Terms. For each Order Form, unless otherwise specified therein, the “Order Form Term” shall begin as of the effective date set forth on such Order Form, and unless earlier terminated as set forth herein, (x) shall continue for the initial term specified on such Order Form (the “Order Form Initial Term”), and (y) following the Order Form Initial Term, shall automatically renew for additional successive periods of twelve (12) months (each, a “Order Form Renewal Term”) unless either party notifies the other party of such party’s intention not to renew no later than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Order Form Initial Term or then-current Order Form Renewal Term, as applicable, except that only five (5) days’ notice is required in the event the Order Form Initial Term is a thirty (30) day trial period. The Fees in the Order Form will be reviewed and may be adjusted by Courted at renewal by giving Customer written notice thereof at least forty-five (45) days prior to the renewal date. In the event of a material breach of this Agreement by either party, the non-breaching party may terminate this Agreement by providing written notice to the breaching party, provided that the breaching party does not materially cure such breach within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice. Without limiting the foregoing, Courted may suspend or limit Customer’s access to or use of the Service if (i) Customer’s account is more than thirty (30) days past due, or (ii) Customer’s use of the Service results in (or is reasonably likely to result in) damage to or material degradation of the Service which interferes with Courted’s ability to provide access to the Service to other customers; provided that in the case of subsection (ii): (a) Courted shall use reasonable good faith efforts to work with Customer to resolve or mitigate the damage or degradation in order to resolve the issue without resorting to suspension or limitation; (b) prior to any such suspension or limitation, Courted shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide notice to Customer describing the nature of the damage or degradation; and (c) Courted shall reinstate Customer’s use of or access to the Service, as applicable, if Customer remediates the issue within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice. All provisions of this Agreement which by their nature should survive termination shall survive termination, including, without limitation, accrued payment obligations, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnity and limitations of liability. For clarity, any services provided by Courted to Customer, including any assistance in exporting the Customer Data, shall be billable at Courted’s standard rates then in effect.
  12. Indemnification. Customer (“Indemnitor”) shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Courted, its affiliates and each of its and its affiliates’ employees, contractors, directors, suppliers and representatives (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from all liabilities, claims, and expenses paid or payable to an unaffiliated third party (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) (“Losses”), that arise from or relate to (i) any claim that the Customer Data infringes, violates, or misappropriates any third party intellectual property or proprietary right or (ii) any breach by Customer of Section 7(iv), (a) or (c). Indemnitee shall provide the Indemnitor with: (x) prompt written notice of any claim (provided that a failure to provide such notice shall only relieve the Indemnitor of its indemnity obligations to the extent the Indemnitor is materially prejudiced by such failure); (y) the option to assume sole control over the defense and settlement of any claim (provided that the Indemnitee may participate in such defense and settlement at its own expense); and (z) reasonable information and assistance in connection with such defense and settlement (at the Indemnitor’s expense).
  13. Disclaimer. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, THE SERVICES AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” AND ARE WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND ANY WARRANTIES IMPLIED BY ANY COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, USAGE OF TRADE, OR COURSE OF DEALING, ALL OF WHICH ARE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED. COURTED EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL GUARANTEES AND WARRANTIES THAT THE SERVICES AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICES WILL ACHIEVE ANY RESULT OR OUTCOME.
