If you subscribe to, or access or use the Services, create an organization, invite users to that organization, or use or allow use of that organization after being notified of a change to these Terms, you acknowledge your understanding of the then-current Agreement and agree to the Agreement on behalf of Customer. Please make sure you have the necessary authority to enter into the Agreement on behalf of Customer before proceeding.

General Provisions
1. Customers, Authorized Users, and Customer Content
  
  “Customer” or “you” is either you, if you are an individual entering into the Agreement on your own behalf, or the organization that you represent in agreeing to the Agreement. If your organization is being set up by someone who is not formally affiliated with a business entity or other organization, Customer is the individual creating the organization. If you signed up for a subscription plan using your corporate email domain or are otherwise entering into a subscription plan on behalf of a business entity or other organization, the business entity or other organization on whose behalf you signed up is the Customer. By signing up on behalf of your business entity or other organization, you represent and warrant that you have all right, power, and authority to bind such entity or organization to the Agreement.
  
  Individuals authorized by Customer to access the Services (each an “Authorized User”) may provide content that consists of videos, images, music, comments, questions, information, documents, spreadsheets, and any other content submitted, posted, or otherwise made available by Customer and its Authorized Users through the Services (“Customer Content”), and Customer will have the sole right and responsibility for managing your use of it. Customer will be solely responsible for all of the acts and omissions of its Authorized Users in relation to the Services and the Agreement. The Services are not intended for and should not be used by anyone under the age of 18. Customer must ensure that all Authorized Users are over 18 years old or represents and warrants that Customer’s parent or legal guardian has given consent to Customer’s assent to this Agreement.
  
  Customer will (i) inform Authorized Users of all Customer policies and practices that are relevant to their use of the Services and of any settings that may impact the processing of Customer Content; and (ii) obtain all rights, permissions or consents from Authorized Users and other Customer personnel that are necessary to grant the rights and licenses in the Agreement and for the lawful use and transmission of Customer Content and the operation of the Services.
2. Subscriptions
  
  A subscription allows Customer and its Authorized Users to access the Services. A subscription may be procured (i) through the Services interface, (ii) through a third party cloud marketplace, or (iii) via an order form entered into between Customer and us (such form, an “Order Form”). Subscriptions commence when we make them available to Customer and continue for the term specified in the Services, the marketplace, or in the Order Form, each as applicable (the “Subscription Period”).
3. Beta Products
  
  Occasionally, we look for beta testers to help us test our new features. These features will be identified as “beta” or “pre-release,” or words or phrases with similar meanings (each, a “Beta Product”). Beta Products are made available on an “as is,” and “as available” basis and, to the extent permitted under applicable law, without any warranties or contractual commitments we make for other Services.
4. Feedback
  
  Customer and its Authorized Users may choose to, or we may invite them to, submit comments or ideas about the Services, including without limitation about how to improve the Services or our products (“Feedback”). By submitting any Feedback, Customer agrees that its disclosure is gratuitous, unsolicited and without restriction and will not place us under any fiduciary or other obligation, and Customer hereby assigns to us all right, title, and interest in and to the Feedback without any additional compensation by us, whether to Customer, the Authorized User, or anyone else, and/or to disclose the Feedback on a non-confidential basis or otherwise to anyone. Customer further acknowledges that, by acceptance of the submission, we do not waive any rights to use similar or related ideas previously known to us, or developed by our personnel, or obtained from sources other than Customer or its Authorized Users.

    As between us on the one hand, and Customer and any Authorized Users on the other, Customer (or your licensors) will own all Customer Content.
  2. License to Customer Content
    
    Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, Customer (for itself and all of its Authorized Users) represents and warrants that it has all rights necessary to grant (including any necessary consents and authorizations from individual persons identified in the Customer Content and licenses from third-parties whose content is included in the Customer Content), to us a royalty-free, sublicensable, transferable, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, non-exclusive, license to access, use, host, store, reproduce, modify, publish, list information regarding, translate, process, copy, distribute, perform, export, display, and make derivative works of all Customer Content, and the names, voice, and/or likeness contained in the Customer Content, in whole or in part, and in any form, media, or technology, whether now known or hereafter developed, (i) to provide, improve, enhance, develop, maintain and offer products or services; (ii) to prevent or address service, security, support or technical issues; (iii) as required by law; and (iv) as expressly permitted in writing by Customer.

    Notwithstanding the foregoing, Customer agrees that we may collect, analyze, use and disclose, during or after the Subscription Period, data derived from Customer Content, which is anonymized and/or aggregated in a manner, that makes the identification of Customer or any Authorized User or third party impossible, for any business purpose, including without limitation, to operate, analyze, improve, and market the Services and our other products and services and share such anonymized data with our affiliates and business partners. Customer further agrees that we will have the perpetual right to use, store, transmit, distribute, modify, copy, display, sublicense, and create derivative works of such derived data.
    
    To the extent permitted under applicable law, we take no responsibility and assume no liability for any Customer Content that Customer or any Authorized User or third-party submits, posts, or otherwise makes available through the Services.

4. Use of the Services
  
  Customer must comply with the Agreement and ensure that its Authorized Users comply with the Agreement. We may review conduct for compliance purposes, but we have no obligation to do so. If we believe there is a violation of the Agreement that can be remedied by Customer’s removal of certain Customer Content, we will, in most cases, ask Customer to take direct action rather than intervene. However, to the extent legally permissible, we reserve the right to take further appropriate action, when we deem it reasonably appropriate if Customer does not take appropriate action, or if we believe there is a credible risk of harm to us, the Services, Authorized Users, or any third parties.

Payment Obligations
1. Payment Terms
  
  For Customers that purchase a subscription to use our Services (whether directly through the Services or through a third party cloud marketplace), fees are specified through your online account or through your cloud marketplace. The Services may also include fees that are calculated and charged as more specifically described in the interface specific to the Services you are using. Payment obligations are non-cancelable once incurred subject to your cancellation rights in these Terms. Except as expressly stated in the Agreement, fees paid are non-refundable. For clarity, in the event Customer downgrades any subscriptions or other recurring fees, Customer will remain responsible for any unpaid fees under the paid plan, and Services under the paid plan will be deemed fully performed and delivered upon expiration of the initial Subscription Period. Fees are stated exclusive of 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 (collectively, “Taxes”). Customer will be responsible for paying all Taxes associated with its purchases, except for those taxes based on our net income.
2. Billing Policies
  
  If you elect to purchase a subscription to use our Services, or any other paid aspects of the Services, Customer agrees to the pricing communicated to you by us. We may add new services for additional fees and charges, or add or amend fees and charges for existing services, at any time in our sole discretion, by giving to Customer at least thirty (30) calendar days' written notice, such increase to take effect at the beginning of the next billing cycle. If Customer is unhappy with the increase, Customer may give notice to terminate the Agreement, by giving at least thirty (30) calendar days' written notice to us prior to the next billing date, such notice to expire no later than the end of the then-current billing cycle. The fees will not increase during the notice period; otherwise, any change to such pricing shall become effective in the billing cycle following notice of such change as provided under the Agreement.
3. Billing and Cancellation
  
  To use the Services, you must provide one or more current, valid accepted payment method, as may be updated from time to time and which may include payment through your account with a third party (such method, a “Payment Method”). By providing a Payment Method, you agree that we or our Payment Processor (defined below) are authorized to periodically charge the applicable fees in addition to any applicable taxes and service fees on a recurring basis until you cancel your subscription or other such recurring fees. The fees for the Services and any other charges you may incur in connection with your use of the Services, such as taxes and possible transaction fees, will be charged to your Payment Method on the specific payment date indicated on your account. The length of your billing cycle will depend on the type of subscription that you choose when you signed up for the Services. Fees are fully earned upon payment. In some cases, your payment date may change, for example, if your Payment Method has not successfully settled, when you change your subscription plan or if your paid subscription began on a date not contained in a given month. We may authorize your Payment Method in anticipation of service-related charges through various methods, including authorizing it up to one month of service as soon as you register.
4. Payment Information
  
  All payments for the Services are handled through the AWS Marketplace (our “Payment Processor”). We or our Payment Processor will attempt to verify the Payment Method you provide, and may do so by processing an authorization hold, which is standard practice. Please see Payment Processor’s privacy statement available on its website for information on how Payment Processor collects and uses personal information. Payment must be received by Payment Processor before our acceptance of an order, and must use one of the payment methods accepted by the Payment Processor. We do not view or store your full credit card or other Payment Method information. For all payments, Payment Processor will collect your Payment Method details and charge your chosen Payment Method in connection with an order. You acknowledge and agree that we are not responsible for any breaches of credit card or other Payment Method security or privacy.
  
  You represent and warrant that: (i) the account, order, and Payment Method information you supply to us or Payment Processor, as applicable, is true, correct, and complete; (ii) you are duly authorized to use such Payment Method; (iii) you will pay any charges that you incur in connection with the Services, including any applicable taxes; (iv) charges incurred by you will be honored by your Payment Method company; (v) you will pay all charges incurred by you at the posted prices, including all applicable taxes, if any; (vi) you will not allow anyone else to use your subscription; (vii) you will not transfer your subscription or password to anyone else; and (viii) you will report to us any unauthorized or prohibited access or use of your subscription or password.
  
  If any of your account, order, or Payment Method information changes, you agree to promptly update this information, so that we or Payment Processor may complete your transactions and contact you as needed. We are not liable for any unauthorized use of your credit card, debit card, or other Payment Method by a third-party in connection with your use of the Services or your subscription.
5. Cancellation
  
  YOU CAN CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION AT ANY TIME BY PROVIDING US WITH AT LEAST THIRTY (30) CALENDAR DAYS NOTICE PRIOR TO YOUR NEXT SUBSCRIPTION BILLING OF YOUR INTENT TO CANCEL. YOU MUST CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION BEFORE IT RENEWS IN ORDER TO AVOID BEING CHARGED FOR THE NEXT CYCLE’S FEES. If you cancel your subscription, the cancellation will become effective at the end of the then-current Subscription Period and you will continue to have access to your subscription through your account. If you cancel your subscription, we will retain your information in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
6. Refunds
  
  EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THESE TERMS, UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW, WE DO NOT PROVIDE REFUNDS FOR ANY SUBSCRIPTION OR LOCATIONS; NOR DO WE PROVIDE CREDIT, REFUNDS, OR PRORATED BILLING FOR SUBSCRIPTIONS THAT ARE CANCELLED.
Term and Termination
1. Agreement Term
  
  As further described below, a free subscription continues until terminated, while a paid subscription has a Subscription Period that may expire or be terminated. The Agreement remains effective until all subscriptions ordered under the Agreement have expired or been terminated or the Agreement itself terminates. Termination of the Agreement will terminate all subscriptions.
2. Auto-Renewal
  
  Unless otherwise set forth in an Order Form, (i) all subscriptions automatically renew for additional periods equal to one (1) month orl the preceding Subscription Period, whichever is shorter; and (ii) the per-unit pricing during any automatic renewal Subscription Period will be the then-current price communicated to you by us. Either party can give the other notice of non-renewal at least thirty (30) days before the end of a Subscription Period to stop a subscription from automatically renewing.
3. Termination for Cause
  
  We or Customer may terminate the Agreement on notice to the other party if the other party materially breaches the Agreement and such breach is not cured within thirty (30) days after the non-breaching party provides notice of the breach. Customer is responsible for its Authorized Users, including for any breaches of the Agreement caused by its Authorized Users. We may terminate the Agreement immediately on notice to Customer if we reasonably believe that the Services are being used by Customer or its Authorized Users in violation of applicable law.
4. Termination Without Cause
  
  Unless otherwise set forth in an Order Form, Customer may terminate its free subscriptions immediately without cause. We may also terminate the Agreement without cause, but we will provide Customer with thirty (30) days prior written notice.
5. Effect of Termination
  
  Upon any termination for cause by Customer, we will refund Customer any prepaid fees covering the remainder of the Subscription Period after the effective date of termination. Upon any termination for cause by us, Customer will pay any unpaid fees covering the remainder of the Subscription Period after the effective date of termination. In no event will any termination relieve Customer of the obligation to pay any fees payable to us for the period prior to the effective date of termination.

THE AGREEMENT GRANTS SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, AND CUSTOMER AND AUTHORIZED USERS MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS THAT VARY FROM JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION. THE FOREGOING DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS WILL NOT APPLY TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

  We may disclose “Confidential Information” to you in connection with the Agreement, which is anything that reasonably should be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information and the circumstances of disclosure including all non-public business, product, technology and marketing information. If something is labeled “Confidential,” that’s a clear indicator to you that the material is confidential. Notwithstanding the above, Confidential Information does not include information that (i) is or becomes generally available to the public without breach of any obligation owed to us; (ii) was known to you prior to its disclosure by us without breach of any obligation owed to us; (iii) is received from a third party without breach of any obligation owed to us; or (iv) was independently developed by you.

Nothing above will prevent you from sharing Confidential Information with financial and legal advisors; provided, however, that the advisors are bound to confidentiality obligations at least as restrictive as those in the Agreement.
3. Compelled Access or Disclosure
  
  You may access or disclose Confidential Information of Company if it is required by law; provided, however, that you give us prior notice of the compelled access or disclosure (to the extent legally permitted) and reasonable assistance, at our cost, if we wish to contest the access or disclosure. If you are compelled by law to access or disclose our Confidential Information, we will reimburse you for your reasonable cost of compiling and providing access to such Confidential Information as well as the reasonable cost for any support provided in connection with us seeking a protective order or confidential treatment for the Confidential Information to be produced.

8. Severability
  
  The Agreement will be enforced to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law. If any provision of the Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be contrary to law, the provision will be modified by the court and interpreted so as best to accomplish the objectives of the original provision to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the remaining provisions of the Agreement will remain in effect.
9. Assignment
  
  Neither party may assign or delegate any of its rights or obligations hereunder, whether by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other party (not to be unreasonably withheld). Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may assign the Agreement in its entirety, without consent of Customer, to a corporate affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets.

10. Governing Law

The parties acknowledge that the Agreement evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce. Notwithstanding the preceding sentences with respect to the substantive law of the Agreement, any arbitration conducted hereunder shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16).
11. Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial; Fees
  
  The state and federal courts located in San Francisco County, California will have exclusive jurisdiction to adjudicate any dispute arising out of or relating to the Agreement or its formation, interpretation or enforcement, including any appeal of an arbitration award or for trial court proceedings if the arbitration provision below is found to be unenforceable. Each party hereby consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts. Each party also hereby waives any right to jury trial in connection with any action or litigation in any way arising out of or related to the Agreement. In any action or proceeding to enforce rights under the Agreement, the prevailing party will be entitled to recover its reasonable costs and attorney’s fees.
12. Arbitration
  
  Read this section carefully because it requires the parties to arbitrate their disputes and limits the manner in which you may seek relief from us. For any dispute with us, you agree to first contact us at support@ockam.io and attempt to resolve the dispute informally. If we have not been able to resolve a dispute within sixty (60) days of your first contact, we each agree to resolve any claim, dispute, or controversy (excluding any claims for injunctive or other equitable relief as provided below) arising out of or in connection with or relating to the Agreement, or the breach or alleged breach thereof by binding arbitration by JAMS, under the Optional Expedited Arbitration Procedures then in effect for JAMS, except as provided herein. The arbitration will be conducted in San Francisco County, California, unless we agree otherwise. If you are using the Service for commercial purposes, each party will be responsible for paying any JAMS filing, administrative and arbitrator fees in accordance with JAMS rules, and the award rendered by the arbitrator shall include costs of arbitration, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses. If you are an individual using the Services for non-commercial purposes: (i) JAMS may require you to pay a fee for the initiation of your case, unless you apply for and successfully obtain a fee waiver from JAMS; (ii) the award rendered by the arbitrator may include your costs of arbitration, your reasonable attorney’s fees, and your reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses; and (iii) you may sue in a small claims court of competent jurisdiction without first engaging in arbitration, but this does not absolve you of your commitment to engage in the informal dispute resolution process. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this Section shall be deemed as preventing us from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts as necessary to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of our data security, intellectual property rights or other proprietary rights.
  
  NOTHING IN THIS SECTION WILL BE DEEMED AS: PREVENTING US FROM SEEKING INJUNCTIVE OR OTHER EQUITABLE RELIEF FROM THE COURTS AS NECESSARY TO PREVENT THE ACTUAL OR THREATENED INFRINGEMENT, MISAPPROPRIATION, OR VIOLATION OF OUR DATA, INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OR OTHER PROPRIETARY RIGHTS.
13. Entire Agreement
  
  The Agreement, including these Terms and all referenced pages constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, proposals or representations, written or oral, concerning its subject matter. Without limiting the foregoing, the Agreement supersedes the terms of any online agreement electronically accepted by Customer or any Authorized Users. However, to the extent of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions in these Terms and any other documents or pages referenced in these Terms, the following order of precedence will apply: (i) the Data Processing Addendum; (ii) these Terms; and (iii) any other documents or pages referenced in these Terms. Notwithstanding any language to the contrary therein, no terms or conditions stated in a Customer purchase order, vendor onboarding process or web portal, or any other Customer order documentation will be incorporated into or form any part of the Agreement, and all such terms or conditions will be null and void.
14. Survival
  
  Any section of the Agreement that, by its terms or its nature, should survive the termination or expiration of the Agreement shall so survive, including but not limited to Sections 1.4, 2.2, 2.3, 3, 4.5, and 5 through 11.
