The Company hereby grants to Customer a restricted license to use the Services, subject to the restrictions and limitations set forth below:

(i)             Generally, the Company grants to Customer a restricted license to use the Services solely for Customer’s own internal business purposes.  Customer represents and warrants that all of Customer’s use of the Services shall only be for legitimate business purposes, including those specified by Customer in connection with a specific information request, relating to its business, and as otherwise governed by this Agreement and any applicable Supplemental Terms.

Customer will immediately notify Company if Customer suspects, has reason to believe or confirms that its user ids or credentials or the Services (or data derived directly or indirectly therefrom) is or has been lost, stolen, compromised, misused or used, accessed or acquired in an unauthorized manner or by any unauthorized person, or for any purpose contrary to the terms and conditions herein. Customer shall remain solely liable for all costs associated therewith and shall further reimburse Company for any expenses it incurs due to Customer’s failure to prevent such impermissible use or access of user ids and/or the Services, or any actions required as a result thereof.

Customer agrees that such notification shall not reference Company or the Services through which the data was provided, nor shall Company be otherwise identified or referenced in connection with the Security Event, without Company’s express written consent.

To the extent Customer receives a request from a regulatory or governmental body requiring or requesting information regarding the Licensed Data or the Services, Customer will provide prompt notice to Company regarding the nature of the information requested and so that Company, at its sole expense, may provide relevant information or seek to make such information disclosure subject to a protective order or other appropriate remedy to preserve the confidentiality and/or permitted uses of Company’s data and/or scores.

Customer agrees that Customer shall not reproduce, retransmit, republish or otherwise transfer for any commercial purposes the Services.  Customer acknowledges that Company (and/or its third party data providers) shall retain all right, title, and interest under applicable contractual, copyright, patent, trademark, Trade Secret and related laws in and to the Services and the information that they provide.  Customer shall promptly notify Company of any threatened or actual infringement of Company’s rights. Company shall own and retain all right, title and interest in and to (a) the Services and Software, all improvements, enhancements or modifications thereto, (b) any software, applications, inventions or other technology developed by Company in connection with the Services or support therefor, and (c) all intellectual property rights related to any of the foregoing.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Company shall have the right to collect and analyze data and other information relating to the provision, use and performance of various aspects of the Services and related systems and technologies (including, without limitation, information concerning Customer Data and data derived therefrom) that does not identify any individual or Customer as the provider of the data (collectively, the “Aggregate Data”), and  Company will be free (during and after the Term of this Agreement) to (i) use such information and data to improve and enhance the Services and for other development, diagnostic and corrective purposes in connection with the Services and other Company offerings, and/or (ii) disclose such data solely in aggregate or other de-identified form in connection with its business. Company further shall solely own all right, title and interest in and to (i) any software platform used to analyze, process, append or enhance the Customer Data and deliver the Licensed Data, and (ii) all format, syntax, and templates or processes utilized by Company in providing the Services to Customer.  No rights or licenses are granted except as expressly set forth herein. During the Term, Company may compile, store, extract, and/or modify Customer Data transmitted via the Services under this Agreement solely to create Non-Identifiable Data.  “Non-Identifiable Data” means Customer Data that does not identify and does not contain any information that identifies Customer or its affiliates or any third party as the source of the Customer Data.  To the extent allowed by law, Company may use Non-Identifiable Data solely to aggregate the Non-Identifiable Data with similar data from other Company customers and use such aggregated data for (a) internal business purposes (e.g., improving the Services and Company’s matching algorithms) and/or (b) to create statistical or benchmarking data, norms, and other information (“Data Product”) that is then shared internally, with Customer, Company’s other customers, prospective customers, and third parties.  Use of Customer Data to develop Non-Identifiable Data shall be on a royalty-free, irrevocable basis, and Company shall own all right, title and interest in the aggregated Non-Identifiable Data.

COMPANY DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR FREE. COMPANY FURTHER DISCLAIMS ANY WARRANTY AS TO THE RESULTS THAT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM USE OF THE SERVICES.

Due to the nature of public record information, the public records and commercially available data sources used in the Services may contain errors.  Source data is sometimes reported or entered inaccurately, processed poorly or incorrectly, and is generally not free from defect.  The Services are not the source of data, nor are they a comprehensive compilation of the data.  Before relying on any data, it should be independently verified.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

Neither Company, nor its officers, subsidiaries, affiliates, representatives, contractors and employees, nor any of its suppliers (including but not limited to all data, equipment and technology suppliers), shall be liable to Customer (or to any person claiming through Customer to whom Customer may have provided data from the Services) for any loss or injury arising out of or caused in whole or in part by use of the Services, including (a) for error or interruption of use or for loss or inaccuracy or corruption of data or cost of procurement of substitute goods, services or technology or loss of business; or (b) for any indirect, exemplary, incidental, special or consequential damages, including, but not limited to, lost revenue; (c) or for any matter beyond Company’s reasonable control.  If, notwithstanding the foregoing, liability can be imposed on Company, Customer agrees that Company’s aggregate liability for any and all losses or injuries arising out of any act or omission of Company in connection with anything to be done or furnished under this Agreement and any Supplemental Terms, regardless of the cause of the loss or injury, and regardless of the nature of the legal or equitable right claimed to have been violated, shall never exceed the amount of fees actually paid by Customer to Company under this Agreement during the six (6) month period preceding the event that gave rise to such loss or injury.   Customer covenants and promises it will not sue Company for an amount greater than such sum even if Customer and/or third-parties were advised of the possibility of such damages and that it will not seek punitive damages in any suit against Company.  IN NO EVENT SHALL COMPANY BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, HOWEVER ARISING, INCURRED BY CUSTOMER.

Company shall hold Customer harmless from liability to third parties resulting from infringement by the Service of any United States patent or any copyright or misappropriation of any trade secret, provided Company is promptly notified of any and all threats, claims and proceedings related thereto and given reasonable assistance and the opportunity to assume sole control over defense and settlement; Company will not be responsible for any settlement it does not approve in writing.  The foregoing obligations do not apply with respect to portions or components of the Service (i) not supplied by Company, (ii) made in whole or in part in accordance with Customer specifications, (iii) that are modified after delivery by Company, (iv) combined with other products, processes or materials where the alleged infringement relates to such combination, (v) where Customer continues allegedly infringing activity after being notified thereof or after being informed of modifications that would have avoided the alleged infringement, or (vi) where Customer’s use of the Service is not strictly in accordance with this Agreement.  If, due to a claim of infringement, the Services are held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be or are believed by Company to be infringing, Company may, at its option and expense (a) replace or modify the Service to be non-infringing provided that such modification or replacement contains substantially similar features and functionality, (b) obtain for Customer a license to continue using the Service, or (c) if neither of the foregoing is commercially practicable, terminate this Agreement and Customer’s rights hereunder and provide Customer a refund of any prepaid, unused fees for the Service.

SURVIVAL OF AGREEMENT

Provisions of this Agreement related to release of claims, indemnification; use and protection of Company’s Services, payment for the Services, audit, Company’s use and ownership of Customer Data, disclaimer of warranties and other disclaimers, security, and governing law shall survive any termination of the license to use the Services.
