Terms & Conditions

The SaaS Services scan specified Customer databases to identify information that is subject to Applicable Data Protection Laws. Customer (not Privacera) is solely responsible for correctly identifying which data protection regulations may apply, and configuring the SaaS Services to include such regulations.

Customer is responsible for its and its Users’ compliance with this Agreement, the Documentation and the Product Schedule. Customer will not: (i) attempt to gain, and will use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized access to or use of the Saas Services by third parties, and will promptly notify Privacera of any such unauthorized access or use; (ii) make the SaaS Services available to anyone other than Customer or Users, or use the SaaS Services for the benefit of anyone other than Customer, unless expressly stated otherwise in the Product Schedule; (iii) copy, sell, resell, license, sublicense, distribute, make available, rent or lease any SaaS Services or include any SaaS Services in a service bureau or outsourcing offering; (iv) reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to discover the source code, object code, or underlying structure, ideas, or algorithms of the SaaS Services (except to the extent applicable laws specifically prohibit such restriction); (v) modify, translate, or create derivative works SaaS Services; (vi) not remove or otherwise alter any proprietary notices from the SaaS Services or Documentation or any portion thereof; (vii) not interfere or attempt to interfere with the proper working of the SaaS Services; (viii) use the SaaS Services in a manner that violates applicable laws, treaties or regulations (including those related to data privacy, international communications and export laws); (ix) use the Saas Services to store or transmit infringing, libelous, or otherwise unlawful or tortious material, or to store or transmit material in violation of third-party privacy rights, or to store or transmit any Sensitive Information; (x) use the Saas Services to store or transmit Malicious Code; or (xi) attempt to access Privacera’s systems or networks.

Customer is responsible for the accuracy, quality and legality of Customer Data, the means by which Customer acquired Customer Data, and Customer’s use of Customer Data with the SaaS Services.

As between the parties, Customer owns and retains all rights to the Customer Data. Customer grants Privacera a worldwide, limited license to host, copy, use, transmit, and display Customer Data in order to fulfill its obligations to provide the Saas Services to Customer in accordance with this Agreement.

Privacera will maintain appropriate administrative, physical and technical safeguards for protection of the security, confidentiality and integrity of Customer Data, as described in the Documentation. Those safeguards will include, but will not be limited to, measures designed to prevent unauthorized access to or disclosure of Customer Data (other than by Customer or Users). The terms of Privacera’s data processing addendum available upon request (“DPA”) are hereby incorporated by reference and shall apply to the extent Customer Data includes Personal Data, as defined in the DPA.

Privacera will make Customer Data available to Customer for export or download for thirty (30) days after termination or expiration of the Subscription Term. After such 30-day period, Privacera will have no obligation to maintain or provide any Customer Data, and will thereafter delete or destroy all copies of Customer Data in its systems or otherwise in its possession or control, unless legally prohibited.

Privacera may freely use the Usage Data to develop, modify, improve, support, customize and operate its current and future products and services.

Privacera will provide Support Services for the SaaS Services during the Subscription Term. Privacera may modify the Support Terms at any time; provided, however, that during a Subscription Term such modifications shall not materially diminish the benefit of the Support Services as provided by Privacera at the start of such Subscription Term.

The subscription fees payable by Customer for the SaaS Services for the Subscription Term will be set forth in each Product Schedule (“Subscription Fees”). Unless otherwise specified in a Product Schedule, all Subscription Fees shall be invoiced annually in advance.

All invoices issued under this Agreement are payable in U.S. dollars within thirty (30) days of the 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. All fees paid are non-cancelable, non-refundable (except where expressly provided to the contrary in this Agreement) and are not subject to set-off.

All fees specifically exclude (and Customer is responsible for) any and all applicable sales, use and other taxes, other than taxes based on Privacera’s income. If all or any part of any payment owed to Privacera under this Agreement is withheld, based upon a claim that such withholding is required pursuant to the tax laws of any country or its political subdivisions and/or any tax treaty between the U.S. and any such country, such payment shall be increased by the amount necessary to result in a net payment to Privacera of the amounts otherwise payable under this Agreement. If Customer exceeds any user or usage limitations set forth on a Product Schedule, then Privacera shall invoice Customer for such additional users or usage at the overage rates set forth on the Product Schedule (or if no overage rates are set forth on the Product Schedule, at Privacera’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 then current Subscription Term, and such increased quantity will be used as the basis for calculating the Subscription Fees for any renewal term.

Following execution of this Agreement, Privacera will enable access to the Saas Services, and the SaaS Services will be deemed accepted by Customer at such time.

Subject to termination as set forth below in this Section 7, the term of this Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and will continue for as long as any SaaS Sevices are being provided to Customer under this Agreement. The Subscription Term set forth in a Product Schedule shall automatically renew for successive terms equal in duration to the initial Subscription Term unless either party notifies the other party in writing, not less than thirty (30) calendar days before the expiration of the then-current Subscription Term, that such party does not wish to renew for an additional Subscription Term.

Either party may terminate this Agreement immediately without further notice if the other party materially breaches any of its obligations under this Agreement and does not remedy such breach within thirty (30) calendar days of the date on which the breaching party receives written notice of such breach from the non-breaching party.

Upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason: (i) Customer’s right to use and access the SaaS Services shall immediately terminate; (ii) Privacera’s obligations to perform the Support Services shall immediately terminate; (iii) Customer shall pay to Privacera the full amount of any outstanding fees due hereunder; and (iv) each party shall promptly destroy or return all Confidential Information of the other party in its possession, and will not make or retain any copies of such information in any form, except that the receiving party may retain one (1) archival copy of such information solely for purposes of ensuring compliance with this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following Sections shall survive the termination of this Agreement: 2.2, 6.2, 7.3, 8, 9.2, 10, 11 and 12.

Use by Customer of the Saas Services in violation of the terms of this Agreement or in a manner that threatens the security, integrity or availability of the Saas Services may result in Privacera’s immediate suspension of the Saas Services; provided however that Privacera will use commercially reasonable efforts under the circumstances to provide Customer with notice and an opportunity to remedy such violation or threat prior to any such suspension.

Recipient agrees not to use Discloser’s Confidential Information for any purpose except as necessary to fulfill its obligations and exercise its rights under this Agreement. Recipient shall protect the secrecy of and prevent disclosure and unauthorized use of the Discloser’s Confidential Information using the same degree of care that it takes to protect its own confidential information of a similar nature, which in no event shall be less than reasonable care. The Recipient may disclose the Discloser’s Confidential Information if required by judicial or administrative process, provided that Recipient first provides Discloser with prompt notice of such required disclosure to enable Discloser to seek a protective order.

Privacera warrants to Customer that the Saas Services will have the functionality set forth in the Documentation. Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy, and Privacera’s sole and exclusive liability for any breach of this warranty will be, at Privacera’s sole discretion, to either proceed to remedy the breach accordance with the Support Services or refund a prorated portion of the applicable Subscription Fees representing the fees attributable to the remainder of the applicable Subscription Term. This warranty is null and void if a breach results from use of the SaaS Services that aises from: (i) use with any third party hardware or software; or (ii) use for an unintended purpose, use other than in accordance with the Documentation, or use otherwise in breach of this Agreement.

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN SECTION 9.1, THE SAAS SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” AND 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.

Privacera shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Customer, its affiliates and each of its and its affiliates’ employees, contractors, directors, suppliers and representatives from all liability and costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) (“Losses”), that arise from or relate to any third party claim that the SaaS Services infringe or misappropriate any intellectual property rights of a third party. If Customer’s use of the SaaS Services is enjoined or Privacera reasonably believes Customer’s use of the SaaS Services may be enjoined, Privacera may, at its option, elect to obtain a license for Customer to continue using the applicable SaaS Services or modify the applicable SaaS Services so that they no longer infringe or, if neither of the foregoing is commercially practicable, terminate the applicable Product Schedule and provide a refund to Customer of any prepaid, unused fees for the remainder of the Subscription Term. Privacera shall have no indemnity obligation to the extent that the infringement arises out of (i) use of other than the then-current, unaltered version of the applicable SaaS Services, unless the infringing portion is also in the then-current, unaltered release; (ii) Privacera’s compliance with Customer’s specifications; (iii) modifications to the SaaS Services made by anyone other than Privacera; (iv) the combination of the SaaS Services with other products, processes or materials not provided by Privacera (where the alleged Losses arise from or relate to such combination); (v) Customer’s continued allegedly infringing activity after being notified thereof or after being informed of modifications that would have avoided the alleged infringement; or (vi) Customer’s use of the SaaS Services other than in accordance with this Agreement and the Documentation. THIS SECTION 10.1 SETS FORTH CUSTOMER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AND PRIVACERA’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE OBLIGATION WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIMS OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INFRINGEMENT.

Customer shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Privacera, its affiliates and each of its and its affiliates’ employees, contractors, directors, suppliers and representatives from all Losses that arise from or relate to Customer’s breach of its obligations set forth in Section 3.2.

Process. The party seeking indemnification in accordance with this Section (the “Indemnitee”) must provide the indemnifying party (“Indemnitor”) with: (a) 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); (b) sole control over the defense and settlement of any claim (provided that: (i) the Indemnitee may participate in such defense at its own cost; and (ii) the Indmnitor may not settle any case in a manner that requires the Indemnitee to pay any amount or admit any liability); and (c) reasonable information and assistance in connection with such defense and settlement (at the Indemnitor’s expense).

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, RELIANCE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF BUSINESS PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION AND THE LIKE) ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, REGARDLESS OF THE LEGAL THEORY UPON WHICH ANY CLAIM FOR SUCH DAMAGES IS BASED AND EVEN IF SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
