Where specified in the Service-Specific Terms, the Monoloop Service may require installation of Monoloop Code on Customer Properties.

4.2 Use by Others. Customer may permit its Authorized Users to use the Monoloop Service, provided their use is for Customer’s benefit only and remains in compliance with this Agreement.

This Section will apply to any Free Access Subscriptions or Beta Releases (even if Beta Releases are provided for a fee or counts towards Customer’s Scope of Use allocations) and supersedes any contrary provision in this Agreement. Monoloop may use good faith efforts in its discretion to assist Customer with Free Access Subscriptions or Beta Releases. Nevertheless, and without limiting the other disclaimers and limitations in this Agreement, CUSTOMER AGREES THAT ANY FREE ACCESS SUBSCRIPTION OR BETA RELEASES ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY, SUPPORT, MAINTENANCE, STORAGE, SLA, OR INDEMNITY OBLIGATIONS OF ANY KIND. WITH RESPECT TO BETA RELEASES, CUSTOMER FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT BETA RELEASES MAY NOT BE COMPLETE OR FULLY FUNCTIONAL AND MAY CONTAIN BUGS, ERRORS, OMISSIONS, AND OTHER PROBLEMS FOR WHICH MONOLOOP WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE. ACCORDINGLY, ANY USE OF BETA RELEASES ARE AT CUSTOMER’S SOLE RISK. Monoloop makes no promises that future versions of Beta Releases will be released or will be available under the same commercial or other terms. Monoloop may terminate Customer’s right to use any Free Access Subscriptions or Beta Releases at any time for any reason or no reason in Monoloop’s sole discretion, without liability.
5. CUSTOMER DATA
5.1 Rights in Customer Data. As between the parties, Customer retains all right, title, and interest (including any intellectual property rights) in and to the Customer Data, all Customer Properties, and all content contained within them (excluding any Monoloop Technology). Customer hereby grants Monoloop a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free right and license to collect, use, copy, store, transmit, modify, and create derivative works of the Customer Data solely to the extent necessary to provide the Monoloop Service and related services to Customer and as set out in Section 5.2 (Aggregate/Anonymous Data). For Content, this includes the right to publicly display and perform Content and the Customer Properties (including derivative works and modifications) as directed by Customer through the Monoloop Service.
5.2 Aggregate/Anonymous Data. Customer agrees that Monoloop will have the right to generate Aggregate/Anonymous Data and that Aggregate/Anonymous Data is Monoloop Technology, which Monoloop may use for any business purpose during or after the term of this Agreement (including without limitation to develop and improve Monoloop’s products and services and to create and distribute reports and other materials). For clarity, Monoloop will only disclose Aggregate/Anonymous Data externally in a de-identified (anonymous) form that does not identify Customer, Authorized Users, or Visitors, and that is stripped of all persistent identifiers (such as device identifiers, IP addresses, and cookie IDs). Customer is not responsible for Monoloop’s use of Aggregate/Anonymous Data.
5.3 Security. Monoloop agrees to maintain commercially reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to secure its systems from unauthorized disclosure and modification, which are described in more detail on Monoloop’s website. Monoloop’s security measures will include: (i) storing Customer Data on servers located in a physically secured location; and (ii) using firewalls, access controls, and similar security technology designed to protect Customer Data from unauthorized disclosure and modification.
5.4 Storage. Monoloop does not provide an archiving service. During the Subscription Term, Customer acknowledges that Monoloop may delete Content no longer in active use. Monoloop expressly disclaims all other obligations with respect to storage. Additional storage terms may be specified in the applicable Service-Specific Terms.
6. CUSTOMER OBLIGATIONS
Customer agrees to: (i) maintain a legally-adequate privacy policy on its Customer Properties and provide all required disclosures to its Visitors; (ii) obtain all necessary rights, releases, and consents to allow Customer Data to be collected, used, and disclosed in the manner contemplated by this Agreement and to grant Monoloop the rights set out in this Agreement; (iii) use the Monoloop Service in compliance with Monoloop’s then-current Acceptable Use Policy; (iv) not submit, collect, or use any Regulated Data to or with the Monoloop Service (including from Third-Party Products), except where expressly permitted by the Service-Specific Terms or for online identifiers (such as IP addresses or cookie IDs) collected by default by the Monoloop Service; (v) comply with any third-party terms applicable to any Customer Apps (such as app store terms), and to any Third-Party Products used in connection with the Monoloop Service; (vi) not take any action that would cause Monoloop, the Monoloop Service or the Monoloop Code to become subject to any third-party terms (including open source license terms). Customer represents and warrants that its Customer Properties and the collection, use, and disclosure of Customer Data will not violate any third-party rights, including intellectual property, privacy and publicity rights. If Customer receives any take down requests or infringement notices related to Customer Data or its use of Third-Party Products, it must promptly: (a) stop using the related item with the Monoloop Service; and (b) notify Monoloop. If Monoloop receives any take down requests or infringement notices related to Customer Data or Customer’s use of Third-Party Products, Monoloop may respond in accordance with its policies, and will notify and consult with the Customer on next steps.
7. SERVICES
Monoloop makes available web-based support through its website and the user interface of the Monoloop service. Additional support services may be available to Customer upon payment of applicable fees (if any), as specified in Customer’s Order Form. Any support services are subject to this Agreement and Monoloop’s applicable support policies. Monoloop may also provide onboarding, deployment and other services under this Agreement. The scope, pricing, and other terms for these additional services will be specified in an Order Form, Order Form exhibit, or other document referencing this Agreement. Customer may use anything delivered as part of these additional services internally during its Subscription Term to support its authorized use of the Monoloop Service, subject to the restrictions in Section 4 (Use Rights) above applicable to the Monoloop Service itself. Monoloop’s ability to deliver services will depend on Customer’s reasonable and timely cooperation and the accuracy and completeness of any information from Customer needed to deliver the services. For avoidance of doubt, Customer retains ownership of any Confidential Information it provides to Monoloop.
8. FEES AND PAYMENT
Customer agrees to pay all fees in the currency and payment period specified in the applicable Order Form. Monoloop’s fees are exclusive of all taxes, and Customer must pay any applicable sales, use, VAT, GST, excise, withholding, or similar taxes or levies, whether domestic or foreign, other than taxes based on the income of Monoloop. Customer will make tax payments to Monoloop to the extent amounts are appropriately included in Monoloop’s invoices. Monoloop sends invoices electronically, and invoices for the Monoloop Service in advance as set out in the Order Form, and for overages or additional CPM, if applicable in the relevant Order Form, monthly in arrears. If Customer requires a Purchase Order number referenced on Monoloop’s invoice, Customer must promptly provide the Purchase Order number. If Customer does not promptly provide the Purchase Order number, Customer agrees to pay the invoice without a referenced Purchase Order Number. Some customers may have the option to pay by credit card. If Customer is paying by credit card, it authorizes Monoloop to charge and fees other amounts automatically to Customer’s credit card without invoice. Payments are non-refundable and non-creditable and payment obligations non-cancellable. Late payments may be subject to a service charge equal to the lesser of 1.5% per month of the amount due or the maximum amount allowed by law.
9. TERM AND TERMINATION
9.1 Term. This Agreement is effective until all Subscription Terms for the Monoloop Service(s) have expired or are terminated as expressly permitted in this Agreement.
9.2 Subscription Term and Renewals. By executing an Order Form for purchase of an Monoloop Service, Customer is agreeing to pay applicable fees for the entire Subscription Term. Customer cannot cancel or terminate a Subscription Term except as expressly permitted by Section 9.4 (Termination for Cause) or a Service-Specific Term. If no subscription start date is specified on the applicable Order Form, the subscription starts when Customer first obtains access to the Monoloop Service. Each Subscription Term will automatically renew for additional successive twelve-month periods unless: (i) otherwise stated on the applicable Order Form; or (ii) either party gives written notice of non-renewal at least thirty (30) days before the end of the then-current Subscription Term. Pricing for any Subscription Term renewal, new Order Form, or Order Form changes will be at Monoloop’s then-applicable rates.
9.3 Suspension of Service. Monoloop may suspend Customer’s access to the Monoloop Service(s) if: (i) Customer’s account is overdue; or (ii) Customer has exceeded its Scope of Use limits. Monoloop may also suspend Customer’s access to the Monoloop Service(s), remove Customer Data or disable Third-Party Products if it determines that: (a) Customer has breached Sections 4 (Use Rights) or 6 (Customer Obligations); or (b) suspension is necessary to prevent harm or liability to other customers or third parties, or to preserve the security, stability, availability or integrity of the Monoloop Service. Monoloop will have no liability for taking action as permitted above. For the avoidance of doubt, Customer will remain responsible for payment of fees during any suspension period under this Section 9.3. However, unless this Agreement has been terminated, Monoloop will cooperate with Customer to promptly restore access to the Monoloop Service once it verifies that Customer has resolved the condition requiring suspension.
9.4 Termination for Cause. Either party may terminate this Agreement, including any related Order Form, if the other party: (i) fails to cure any material breach of this Agreement (including a failure to pay undisputed fees) within thirty (30) days after written notice detailing the breach; (ii) ceases operation without a successor; or (iii) if permitted by applicable law, seeks protection under any bankruptcy, receivership, trust deed, creditors’ arrangement, composition, or comparable proceeding, or if any of these proceedings are instituted against that party (and not dismissed within sixty (60) days thereafter). Monoloop may also terminate this Agreement or any related Order Forms immediately if Customer breaches Sections 4 (Use Rights) or 6 (Customer Obligations), or for repeated violations of this Agreement.
9.5 Effect of Termination. Upon any expiration or termination of this Agreement or an Order Form: (i) Customer’s license rights terminate and it must promptly: (a) stop use of the applicable Monoloop Service(s) (including any related Monoloop Technology); (b) stop distributing any Monoloop Code installed on its Customer Properties; and (c) delete (or, at Monoloop’s request, return) any and all copies of the Monoloop Code, any Monoloop documentation, passwords or access codes, and any other Monoloop Confidential Information in Customer’s possession, custody, or control; and (ii) Customer’s right to access any Customer Data in the applicable Monoloop Service will cease and Monoloop may delete the Customer Data at any time after 30 days from the date of termination. If Monoloop terminates this Agreement for cause as provided in Section 9.4 (Termination for Cause), any payments for the remaining portion of the Subscription Term will become due and must be paid immediately by Customer. Except where this Agreement specifies an exclusive remedy, all remedies under this Agreement, including termination or suspension, are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies that may be available to a party.
9.6 Survival. The following Sections survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement: 2 (Definitions); 3 (Account Registration and Use); 4.3 (General Restrictions); 4.4 (Beta Releases and Free Access Subscriptions); 5.1 (Rights in Customer Data); 5.2 (Aggregate/Anonymous Data); 8 (Fees and Payment); 9 (Term and Termination); 10 (Confidential Information); 11 (Monoloop Technology); 12 (Indemnification); 13.2 (Disclaimers); 14 (Limitations of Liability); 15 (Third-Party Products and Integrations); and 16 (General).
10. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION
10.1 Confidentiality Obligation. Each party (as the receiving party) must: (i) hold in confidence and not disclose the other party’s Confidential Information to third parties except as permitted by this Agreement; and (ii) only use the other party’s Confidential Information to fulfill its obligations and exercise its rights under this Agreement. Each party may share the other party’s Confidential Information with its, and its Affiliates’, employees, agents or contractors having a legitimate need to know (which, for Monoloop, includes the subcontractors referenced in Section 16.5), provided that the party remains responsible for any recipient’s compliance with the terms of this Section 10 and that these recipients are bound to confidentiality obligations no less protective than this Section.
10.2 Exclusions. These confidentiality obligations do not apply to (and Confidential Information does not include) information that: (i) is or becomes public knowledge through no fault of the receiving party; (ii) was known by the receiving party before it received the Confidential Information; (iii) is rightfully obtained by the receiving party from a third party without breach of any confidentiality obligation; or (iv) is independently developed by the receiving party without using the disclosing party’s Confidential Information. A party may also disclose the other party’s Confidential Information to the extent required by law or court order, provided it gives advance notice (if permitted by law) and cooperates in any effort by the other party to obtain confidential treatment for the information.
10.3 Remedies. The parties acknowledge that disclosing Confidential Information may cause substantial harm for which damages alone may be an insufficient remedy, and so on breach of this Section, each party is entitled to seek appropriate equitable relief in addition to any other remedies it may have at law.
11. MONOLOOP TECHNOLOGY
11.1 Ownership and Updates. This is a subscription agreement for access to and use of the Monoloop Service. Customer acknowledges that it is obtaining only a limited right to use the Monoloop Service and that irrespective of any use of the words “purchase”, “sale” or similar terms, no ownership rights are transferred to Customer under this Agreement. Customer agrees that Monoloop (or its suppliers) retain all rights, title and interest (including all intellectual property rights) in and to all Monoloop Technology (which is deemed Monoloop’s Confidential Information) and reserves any licenses not specifically granted in this Agreement. Other than the Monoloop Code, the Monoloop Service is offered as an online, hosted product. Accordingly, Customer acknowledges and agrees that it has no right to obtain a copy of the software behind any Monoloop Service and that Monoloop at its option may make updates, bug fixes, modifications or improvements to the Monoloop Service from time-to-time.
11.2 Feedback. If Customer elects to provide any suggestions, comments, improvements, information, ideas or other feedback or related materials to Monoloop (collectively, “Feedback”), Customer hereby grants Monoloop a worldwide, perpetual, non-revocable, sublicensable, royalty-free right and license to use, copy, disclose, license, distribute, and exploit any Feedback in any format and in any manner without any obligation, payment, or restriction based on intellectual property rights or otherwise, however Monoloop will not identify Customer as the source of the Feedback. Nothing in this Agreement limits Monoloop’s right to independently use, develop, evaluate, or market products, whether incorporating Feedback or otherwise.
12. INDEMNIFICATION
Customer agrees to defend and indemnify Monoloop from and against any third-party claims and liabilities to the extent resulting from: Customer Data; Customer Properties (including services or products provided through the Customer Properties); or a breach or alleged breach of Section 6 (Customer Obligations). Customer must not settle any claim without Monoloop’s prior written consent if the settlement would require Monoloop to admit fault, pay amounts that Customer must pay under this Agreement, or take or refrain from taking any action. Monoloop may participate in a claim through counsel of its own choosing at its own expense and Customer and Monoloop will reasonably cooperate on the defense.
13. DISCLAIMERS
ALL MONOLOOP TECHNOLOGY AND RELATED SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND ON AN “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS. NEITHER Monoloop NOR ITS SUPPLIERS MAKE ANY WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, TITLE, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NONINFRINGEMENT. MONOLOOP MAKES NO REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY OR GUARANTEE THAT MONOLOOP TECHNOLOGY WILL MEET CUSTOMER’S REQUIREMENTS OR EXPECTATIONS, THAT CUSTOMER DATA WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, OR PRESERVED WITHOUT LOSS, OR THAT MONOLOOP TECHNOLOGY WILL BE TIMELY, UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE. MONOLOOP DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT SECURITY MEASURES WILL BE ERROR-FREE AND WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE FOR UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS BEYOND ITS REASONABLE CONTROL. MONOLOOP WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE IN ANY MANNER FOR ANY CUSTOMER PROPERTIES, THIRD-PARTY PRODUCTS, THIRD-PARTY CONTENT, OR NON-MONOLOOP SERVICES (INCLUDING FOR ANY DELAYS, INTERRUPTIONS, TRANSMISSION ERRORS, SECURITY FAILURES, AND OTHER PROBLEMS CAUSED BY THESE ITEMS), FOR REGULATED DATA RECEIVED FROM CUSTOMER IN BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT, FOR THE COLLECTION, USE AND DISCLOSURE OF CUSTOMER DATA AUTHORIZED BY THIS AGREEMENT, OR FOR DECISIONS OR ACTIONS TAKEN (OR NOT TAKEN) BY CUSTOMER BASED UPON MONOLOOP TECHNOLOGY OR MONOLOOP’S RELATED SERVICES (INCLUDING CHANGES TO CUSTOMER PROPERTIES). THE DISCLAIMERS IN THIS SECTION WILL APPLY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN THIS AGREEMENT. CUSTOMER MAY HAVE OTHER STATUTORY RIGHTS. HOWEVER, ANY STATUTORILY REQUIRED WARRANTIES UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, IF ANY, WILL BE LIMITED TO THE SHORTEST PERIOD AND MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
14. LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY
14.1 Liability Cap. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL MONOLOOP OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OF USE, LOST OR INACCURATE DATA, INTERRUPTION OF BUSINESS, LOST PROFITS, COSTS OF DELAY, REPUTATIONAL HARM, OR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, COVER, RELIANCE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND HOWEVER CAUSED, EVEN IF INFORMED IN ADVANCE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF THESE DAMAGES. MONOLOOP’S AND ITS SUPPLIERS’ TOTAL LIABILITY WILL NOT EXCEED IN AGGREGATE THE AMOUNT ACTUALLY PAID OR PAYABLE BY CUSTOMER TO MONOLOOP FOR THE APPLICABLE MONOLOOP SERVICE OR RELATED SERVICES IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM. FOR FREE ACCESS SUBSCRIPTIONS OR BETA RELEASES, MONOLOOP’S TOTAL LIABILITY WILL NOT EXCEED IN AGGREGATE FIFTY U.S. DOLLARS ($50 US).
14.2 Exceptions. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NONE OF THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION 14 EXCLUDES EITHER PARTY’S LIABILITY FOR FRAUD OR FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY TO THE EXTENT CAUSED BY A PARTY’S NEGLIGENCE. IN ADDITION, THE LAWS IN SOME JURISDICTIONS MAY NOT ALLOW SOME OF THE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY IN THIS SECTION. IF ANY OF THESE LAWS IS FOUND TO APPLY TO THIS AGREEMENT, THIS SECTION 14 WILL APPLY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
14.3 Failure of Essential Purpose. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS SECTION 14 IS A FUNDAMENTAL BASIS OF THE BARGAIN AND A REASONABLE ALLOCATION OF RISK BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND WILL SURVIVE AND APPLY TO ANY CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY MONOLOOP TECHNOLOGY OR ANY RELATED SERVICES, REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY (CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE), EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY IN THIS AGREEMENT IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
15. THIRD-PARTY PRODUCTS AND INTEGRATIONS
If Customer uses Third-Party Products in connection with the Monoloop Services, those products may make Third-Party Content available to Customer and may access Customer’s instance of the Monoloop Service, including Customer Data. Monoloop does not warrant or support Third-Party Products or Third-Party Content (whether or not these items are designated by Monoloop as “powered”, “verified” or otherwise) and disclaims all responsibility and liability for these items and their access to the Monoloop Services, including their modification, deletion, disclosure, or collection of Customer Data. Monoloop is not responsible in any way for Customer Data once it is transmitted, copied, or removed from the Monoloop Services by Customer or under Customer’s direction. Customer may use Monoloop’s API to enable non-Monoloop Add-Ons for use with the Monoloop Services. Those Add-Ons are subject to the MONOLOOP API Terms of Service.
