2.4 Privacy and Data Rights. All Customer Data collected through the Services is subject to the privacy policy located at https://secureframe.com/privacy. Customer acknowledges and agrees that the Services will require Authorized Users to share with Secureframe certain information which may include personal data regarding Authorized Users (such as names, usernames, hashed passwords, email address and/or online identifiers) solely for the purposes of providing and improving the Services. Prior to providing any personal information to the Services, Customer is fully responsible for obtaining the consent of the associated individual, in accordance with Applicable Law, to the use of his/her information by Secureframe in accordance with this Agreement. Customer represents and warrants that it has all rights necessary, including any consents required hereunder or by Applicable Law, to provide or make available the Customer Data (including personal data) or other materials in connection with its use of the Services, and to permit Secureframe to use the same as contemplated hereunder. Customer will not use the Services to transmit or provide to Secureframe any financial or medical information of any nature, or any sensitive personal data (such as social security numbers, driver’s license numbers, birth dates, personal bank account numbers, passport or visa numbers, or credit card numbers).

2.5 Suspension. Secureframe reserves the right to suspend Customer’s (or any Authorized User’s) access to the Services immediately: (a) if Customer breaches Section 2 or Section 4 of this Agreement, or breaches any other provision and fails to correct that breach within the applicable cure period; or (b) as it deems reasonably necessary to respond to any actual or potential security or availability concern that may affect Secureframe or its customers or users.

Customer’s use of third-party products or services that are not licensed to Customer directly by Secureframe (“Third-Party Services”) shall be governed solely by the terms and conditions applicable to such Third-Party Services, as agreed to between Customer and the third party. Secureframe does not endorse or support, is not responsible for, and disclaims all liability with respect to Third-Party Services, including the privacy practices, data security processes and other policies related to Third-Party Services. Customer agrees to waive any claim against Secureframe with respect to any Third-Party Services. Customer may enable integrations between the Services and Third-Party Services (each, an “Integration”). By enabling an Integration between the Services and its Third-Party Services, Customer is instructing Secureframe to share the Customer Data necessary to facilitate the Integration. Customer is responsible for providing all instructions to any Third-Party Service provider relating to Customer Data. Secureframe and Third-Party Service providers are not sub-processors of each other.

3.1 Fees. Customer shall pay all amounts invoiced by Secureframe relating to any applicable Order Form, according to the payment schedule set forth therein. Except as otherwise specified herein or in any applicable Order Form: (a) fees are quoted and payable in United States dollars; and (b) payment obligations are non-cancelable and non-pro-ratable for partial months, and fees paid are non-refundable.

All amounts payable hereunder are exclusive of any taxes, including any direct or indirect local, state, federal or foreign taxes, levies, duties or similar government assessments of any nature (such as VAT, GST, excise, sales, use or withholding taxes) (collectively “Taxes”). Customer will be solely responsible for payment and reimbursement of all Taxes associated with its purchases hereunder, except for taxes based on Secureframe’s net income.

4.1 Proprietary Rights.

4.3 Confidential Information. Each party agrees that it will use the Confidential Information of the other party solely in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and it will not disclose, or permit to be disclosed, the same directly or indirectly, to any third party without the other party’s prior written consent, except as otherwise permitted hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may disclose Confidential Information: (a) to its employees, officers, directors, attorneys, auditors, financial advisors, contractors, and other representatives who have a need to know and are legally bound to keep such information confidential by confidentiality obligations consistent with those of this Agreement (and for whom each party is responsible for any breach of this Agreement); and (b) as required by law (in which case, to the extent legally permitted, the receiving party will limit the disclosure to that required by law and provide the disclosing party with prior written notification thereof in order to allow disclosing party the opportunity to contest such disclosure). Neither party will disclose the terms of this Agreement to any third party, except that Secureframe may confidentially disclose such terms to actual or potential lenders, investors or acquirers. Receiving party agrees to use the same degree of care that it uses to protect its own confidential and proprietary information to prevent the unauthorized use or disclosure of disclosing party’s Confidential Information, but in no event less than a reasonable degree of care. Promptly after disclosing party’s request, receiving party agrees to return or destroy disclosing party’s Confidential Information; provided, however, that receiving party shall be entitled to retain copies of Confidential Information solely to the extent necessary for purposes of such party’s ordinary course records retention and backup policies and procedures, or to comply with Applicable Law, provided that such Confidential Information is treated as such for so long as it is retained. Each party acknowledges the irreparable harm that improper disclosure of Confidential Information may cause; therefore, the injured party will be entitled to seek immediate injunctive and other equitable relief, in addition to all other remedies, for any violation or threatened violation of this Section or Section 2.3 “Restrictions.”

4.4 Performance Metrics and Machine Learning. Customer acknowledges that a fundamental component of the Services is the use of machine learning and performance metrics for the purpose of providing and improving Secureframe’s products and services. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Secureframe may collect, use, aggregate, de-identify and/or anonymize (during and after the Term) information related to Customer’s use of the Services to train its algorithms through machine learning techniques, monitor performance, create analytics and statistical data, or for any other purpose permitted by Applicable Law.
