These Kobik Tech. Terms of Service (these “Terms”) describe your rights and responsibilities as a
customer of our Cloud Products. These Terms are between you and Kobik Tech. LLC
or its Affiliates (“Kobik Tech.”, “we” or “us”).
“You” means the entity you represent in accepting
these Terms or, if that does not apply, you
individually. If you are accepting on behalf of your employer or another
entity, you represent and warrant that: (i) you have
full legal authority to bind your employer or such entity to these Terms; (ii)
you have read and understand these Terms; and (iii) you agree to these Terms on
behalf of the party that you represent. If you don’t have the legal authority
to bind your employer or the applicable entity, please do not click “I agree”
(or similar button or checkbox) that is presented to you. PLEASE NOTE THAT IF YOU SIGN UP FOR A CLOUD PRODUCT USING AN
EMAIL ADDRESS FROM YOUR EMPLOYER OR ANOTHER ENTITY, THEN (A) YOU WILL BE DEEMED
TO REPRESENT SUCH PARTY, (B) YOUR CLICK TO ACCEPT WILL BIND YOUR EMPLOYER OR
THAT ENTITY TO THESE TERMS, AND (C) THE WORD “YOU” IN THESE TERMS WILL REFER TO
YOUR EMPLOYER OR THAT ENTITY.
These Terms are effective as of the earliest to
occur of (i) the date you sign any purchase order for
a Cloud Product, (ii) the date you first click “I agree” (or any similar button
or checkbox) related to these Terms or (iii) the date you first use or access a
Cloud Product (the “Effective Date”). These Terms do not have to be signed in order to be binding. You may indicate your assent to
these Terms by clicking “I agree” (or similar button or checkbox) at the time
you register for a Cloud Product, create a Cloud Product account, or place an
Order, or by accessing or using a Cloud Product. For No-Charge Products, you
also may indicate your assent to these Terms using any of these
methods.
1. What these Terms cover.
1.1. Cloud Products. These Terms govern our Cloud
Products (including, without limitation, our No-Charge Products) and related
Support. These Terms include our Privacy Policy and your
Orders.
1.2. Software Products Not Covered. These Terms do
not apply to our downloadable software products, use of which requires a
separate license agreement with us. For clarity, however, any client software
(e.g., a desktop or mobile application) we may provide as part of the Cloud
Products themselves remains subject to these Terms.
2. How Cloud Products are administered.
2.1. Administrators. Through the
Cloud Products, you may be able to specify certain End Users as
Administrators, who will have important rights and controls over your use of
Cloud Products. Without limiting Section 2.4 (Responsibility for End
Users), which fully applies to Administrators, you are responsible for all
persons you allow to become Administrators and any actions they take, including
as described above. You agree that our responsibilities do not extend to the
internal management or administration of the Cloud
Products for you.
2.2. Reseller as Administrator. If you order Cloud
Products through a Reseller, then you are responsible for determining whether
the Reseller may serve as an Administrator and for any related rights or
obligations in your applicable agreement with the Reseller. As between
you and Kobik Tech., you are solely responsible for any access by Reseller to
your accounts or your other End User Accounts.
2.3. End User Consent. You will provide and maintain any and all required disclosures to and will obtain and
maintain all required consents from End Users. You will provide evidence of
such consents upon our reasonable request.
2.4. Responsibility for End Users. Our Cloud Products
may have various user onboarding flows. Some Cloud Products may require users
to be designated by Administrators; some may allow users to sign up for
individual accounts which can become associated with teams or organizations at a later time; and some may allow users to invite other
users. You are responsible for understanding the settings and controls for each
Cloud Product you use and for the actions of all persons
you allow to become an End User. If payment is required for End Users to use or
access a Cloud Product, then we are only required to provide the Cloud Products
to those End Users for whom you have paid the applicable fees, and only such
End Users are permitted to access and use the Cloud Products. You are
responsible for compliance with these Terms by all End Users, including for any
payment obligations. Please note that you are responsible for the activities of
all your End Users, including Orders they may place and how End Users use Your
Data, even if those End Users are not from your organization or domain.
2.5. Credentials. You agree, on your own behalf and
behalf of your End Users, to keep all user IDs and passwords for the Cloud Products strictly confidential and not to share
them with any unauthorized person. You are responsible for any
and all actions taken using your or your End User Accounts and
passwords, and you agree to immediately notify us of any unauthorized use of
which you become aware.
2.6. Age Requirement for End Users. The Cloud
Products are not intended for, and should not be used by, anyone under the age
of 16. You are responsible for ensuring that all End Users are at least 16
years old.
2.7. Domain Name Ownership. Where
you are required to specify a domain for the operation of a Cloud Product or
certain Cloud Product features, we may verify that you own or control that
domain. If you do not own or control the domain you specify, then we will have
no obligation to provide you with the applicable Cloud Product or Cloud Product
features.
3. What's included in your Cloud Product subscriptions; what are
the restrictions.
3.1. Access to Cloud Products. Subject to these Terms
and during the applicable Subscription Term, you may access and use the Cloud
Products for your own business purposes or personal use, as applicable, all in accordance with these Terms, the applicable Order and
the Documentation. The rights granted to you in this Section 3.1 are
non-exclusive, non-sublicensable and non-transferable.
3.2. Support. During the Subscription Term, we will
provide Support for the Cloud Products in accordance with the support plan (to the
extent applicable), and the applicable Order.
3.3. Restrictions. Except as otherwise expressly
permitted in these Terms, you will not: (a) reproduce, modify, adapt or create
derivative works of the Cloud Products; (b) rent, lease, distribute, sell,
sublicense, transfer or provide access to the Cloud Products to a third party;
(c) use the Cloud Products for the benefit of any third party; (d) incorporate
any Cloud Products into a product or service you provide to a third party; (e)
interfere with or otherwise circumvent mechanisms in the Cloud Products intended
to limit your use; (f) reverse engineer, disassemble, decompile, translate or
otherwise seek to obtain or derive the source code, underlying ideas,
algorithms, file formats or non-public APIs to any Cloud Products, except to
the extent expressly permitted by applicable law (and then only upon advance
notice to us); (g) remove or obscure any proprietary or other notices contained
in any Cloud Product; (h) use the Cloud Products for competitive analysis or to
build competitive products; (i) publicly disseminate
information regarding the performance of the Cloud Products; or (j) encourage
or assist any third party to do any of the foregoing.
4. Our security and data privacy policies.
4.1. Security and Certifications. We implement
and maintain physical, technical and administrative
security measures designed to protect Your Data from unauthorized access,
destruction, use, modification, or disclosure. We also maintain a compliance
program that includes independent third-party audits and certifications.
4.2. Privacy. We collect certain data and information
about you and your End Users in connection with your
and your End Users’ use of the Cloud Products and otherwise in connection with
these Terms. We collect and use all such data and information in accordance
with our Privacy
Policy, which you acknowledge.
4.3. Improving Cloud Products. We are always striving
to improve the Cloud Products. In
order to do so, we use analytics techniques to better understand how our
Cloud Products are being used. For more information on these techniques and the
type of data collected, please read our Privacy Policy.
4.4. Subpoenas. Nothing in these Terms prevents us
from disclosing Your Data to the extent required by law, subpoenas or court
orders, but we will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify you where permitted to do so. Kobik
Tech. strives to balance your privacy rights with other legal requirements.
5. Terms that apply to Your Data.
5.1. Using Your Data to provide Cloud Products to
You. You retain all right, title
and interest in and to Your Data in the form submitted to the Cloud Products.
Subject to these Terms, and solely to the extent necessary to provide the Cloud
Products to you, you grant us a worldwide, limited term license to access, use,
process, copy, distribute, perform, export, and display Your Data. Solely to the extent that reformatting Your Data for display
in a Cloud Product constitutes a modification or derivative work, the foregoing
license also includes the right to make modifications and derivative works. In order to respond to your support requests, with your
permission we may also access your accounts, End User Accounts, and your Cloud
Products.
5.2. Your Data Compliance Obligations. You and your
use of Cloud Products (including use by your End Users) must comply
at all times with these Terms, and all Laws. You represent and warrant
that: (i) you have obtained all necessary rights,
releases and permissions to submit all Your Data to the Cloud Products and to
grant the rights granted to us in these Terms and (ii) Your Data and its
submission and use as you authorize in these Terms will not violate (1) any
Laws, (2) any third-party intellectual property, privacy, publicity or other
rights, or (3) any of your or third-party policies or terms governing Your
Data. Other than our express obligations under Section 4 (Our security and data
privacy policies), we assume no responsibility or liability for Your Data, and
you are solely responsible for Your Data and the consequences of submitting and
using it with the Cloud Products.
5.3. No Prohibited Sensitive Personal Information.
You will not submit to the Cloud Products (or use the Cloud Products to
collect) any Sensitive Personal Information unless its processing is expressly
supported as a feature of the applicable Cloud Product in the applicable
Documentation. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, we have no
liability under these Terms for Sensitive Personal Information submitted in
violation of the foregoing.
5.4. Your Indemnity. You will defend, indemnify and
hold harmless us (and our Affiliates, officers, directors, agents and
employees) from and against any and all claims, costs, damages, losses,
liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs)
resulting from any claim arising from or related to (i)
your breach of Section 2.3 (End User Consent) or any claims or disputes brought
by your End Users arising out of their use of Cloud Products, (ii) your breach
(or alleged breach) of Sections 5.2 (Your Data Compliance Obligations) or 5.3
(No Prohibited Sensitive Personal Information); or (iii) Your Materials. This
indemnification obligation is subject to you receiving (a) prompt written
notice of such claim (but in any event notice in sufficient time for you to
respond without prejudice); (b) the exclusive right to control and direct the
investigation, defense or settlement of such claim and (c) all reasonable necessary cooperation by us at your expense.
5.5. Removals and Suspension. We have no obligation
to monitor any content uploaded to the Cloud Products.
Nonetheless, if we deem such action necessary based on your violation of these
Terms or if we otherwise deem such action advisable, including the Privacy
Policy, we may (1) remove Your Data from the Cloud Products or (2) suspend your
access to the Cloud Products. We will use reasonable efforts to provide you
with advance notice of removals and suspensions when practicable, but if we
determine that your actions endanger the operation of the Cloud Product or
other users, we may suspend your access or remove Your Data immediately without
notice. We have no liability to you for removing or deleting Your Data from or
suspending your access to any Cloud Products as described in this Section 5.5.
6. Using third-party products with the Cloud
Products.
6.1. Third-Party Products. You (including your End
Users) may choose to use or procure other third party
products or services in connection with the Cloud Products, or implementation,
customization, training or other services. Your receipt or use of any third party products or services (and the third parties’ use
of any of Your Data) is subject to a separate agreement between you and the
third party provider. If you enable or use third party products or services
with the Cloud Products, we will allow the third party providers to access or use Your Data as required
for the interoperation of their products and services with the Cloud Products.
This may include transmitting, transferring, modifying or deleting Your Data,
or storing Your Data on systems belonging to the third party
providers or other third parties. Any third party
provider’s use of Your Data is subject to the applicable agreement between you
and such third party provider. We are not responsible for
any access to or use of Your Data by third party providers or their products or
services, or for the security or privacy practices of any third
party provider or its products or services. You are solely responsible
for your decision to permit any third party provider
or third party product or service to use Your Data. It is your responsibility
to carefully review the agreement between you and the third
party provider, as provided by the applicable third party provider. WE
DISCLAIM ALL LIABILITY AND RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY THIRD PARTY
PRODUCTS OR SERVICES (WHETHER SUPPORT, AVAILABILITY, SECURITY OR OTHERWISE) OR
FOR THE ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF ANY THIRD PARTY PROVIDERS OR VENDORS.
6.2. Integration with Non-Kobik Tech. Applications. The
Cloud Products may contain features designed to interoperate with
third party products or services. We cannot guarantee the continued
availability of such features, and may cease providing
them without entitling you to any refund, credit, or other compensation, if for
example and without limitation, the provider of a third party product or
service ceases to make such third party product or service available for
interoperation with the corresponding Cloud Product features in a manner acceptable
to us.
7. . Billing, renewals, and
payment.
7.1. Monthly and Annual Plans. Except for No-Charge
Products, all Cloud Products are offered either on a monthly subscription basis
or an annual subscription basis.
7.2. Renewals. Except as otherwise specified in your
Order, unless either party cancels your subscription prior to expiration of the
current Subscription Term, your subscription will automatically renew for
another Subscription Term. The length of each renewal Subscription Term
shall be equal to the length of the initial Subscription Term. You will provide
any notice of non-renewal through the means we designate, which may include
account settings in the Cloud Products or contacting our support team. Cancelling
your subscription means that you will not be charged for the next billing
cycle, but you will not receive any refunds or credits for amounts that have
already been charged. All renewals are subject to the applicable Cloud Product
continuing to be offered and will be charged at the then-current rates.
7.3. Adding Users. You may add users, increase
storage limits, or otherwise increase your use of Cloud Products by placing a
new Order or modifying an existing Order. Unless otherwise specified in the
applicable Order, we will charge you for any increased use at our then-current
rates, prorated for the remainder of the then-current Subscription Term.
7.4. Payment. You will pay all fees in accordance
with each Order, by the due dates and in the currency specified in the Order.
If a PO number is required in order for an invoice to
be paid, then you must provide such PO number to Kobik Tech. by emailing the PO
number to finance@kobiktech.com. Other than as expressly set forth in Section
20 (Changes to these Terms), all amounts are non-refundable, non-cancelable and
non-creditable. You agree that we may bill your credit card or other payment
method for renewals, additional users, overages to set limits or scopes of use,
expenses, and unpaid fees, as applicable.
7.5. Delivery. We will deliver the login instructions
for Cloud Products to your account or through other reasonable means no later
than when we have received payment of the applicable fees. You are responsible
for accessing your account to determine that we have received payment and that
your Order has been processed. All deliveries under these Terms will be
electronic.
8. Taxes not included.
8.1. Taxes. Your fees under these Terms exclude any
taxes or duties payable in respect of the Cloud Products in the jurisdiction
where the payment is either made or received. To the extent that any such taxes
or duties are payable by us, you must pay to us the amount of such taxes or
duties in addition to any fees owed under these Terms. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if you have obtained an exemption from relevant taxes or duties as
of the time such taxes or duties are levied or assessed, you may provide us
with such exemption information, and we will use reasonable efforts to provide
you with invoicing documents designed to enable you to obtain a refund or
credit from the relevant revenue authority, if such a refund or credit is
available.
8.2. Withholding Taxes. You will pay all fees net of
any applicable withholding taxes. You and we will work together to avoid
any withholding tax if exemptions, or a reduced treaty withholding rate, are
available. If we qualify for a tax exemption, or a reduced treaty withholding
rate, we will provide you with reasonable documentary proof. You will provide us reasonable evidence that you have paid the relevant
authority for the sum withheld or deducted.
9. If you purchased through a Reseller. If you make any
purchases through an authorized partner or reseller of Kobik Tech. (“Reseller”):
(a) Instead of
paying us, you will pay the applicable amounts to the Reseller, as agreed
between you and the Reseller. We may suspend or terminate your rights to use
Cloud Products if we do not receive the corresponding payment from the
Reseller.
(b) Your order
details (e.g., the Cloud Products you are entitled to use, the number of End
Users, the Subscription Term, etc.) will be as stated in the Order placed with
us by the Reseller on your behalf, and Reseller is responsible for the accuracy
of any such Order as communicated to us.
(c) Resellers are
not authorized to modify these Terms or make any promises or commitments on our
behalf, and we are not bound by any obligations to you other than as set forth
in these Terms.
10. No contingencies on other products of future
functionality. You acknowledge that the Cloud Products referenced in
an Order are being purchased separately from any of our other products or
services. Payment obligations for any products or services are not contingent
on the purchase or use of any of our other products (and for clarity, any
purchases of Cloud Products are separate and not contingent on each other, even
if listed on the same Order). You agree that your purchases are not contingent
on the delivery of any future functionality or features (including future
availability of any Cloud Products beyond the current Subscription Term), or
dependent on any oral or written public comments we make regarding future
functionality or features.
11. Evaluations, trials, and betas. We may offer
certain Cloud Products to you at no charge, including free accounts, trial use
and Beta Versions as defined below (collectively, “No-Charge Products”). Your use of No-Charge Products is
subject to any additional terms that we specify and is only permitted during
the Subscription Term we designate (or, if not designated, until terminated in
accordance with these Terms). Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 11, the terms and conditions of these Terms
governing Cloud Products, including Section 3.3 (Restrictions), fully apply to
No-Charge Products. We may modify or terminate your right to use No-Charge
Products at any time and for any reason in our sole discretion, without
liability to you. You understand that any pre-release and beta Cloud Products,
and any pre-release and beta features within generally available Cloud
Products, that we make available (collectively, “Beta Versions”) are still under development, may be
inoperable or incomplete and are likely to contain more errors and bugs than
generally available Cloud Products. We make no promises that any Beta Versions
will ever be made generally available. In some circumstances, we may charge a
fee in order to allow you to access Beta Versions, but
the Beta Versions will still remain subject to this Section 11. All information
regarding the characteristics, features or performance of any No-Charge
Products (including Beta Versions) constitutes our Confidential Information. To
the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we disclaim all obligations or
liabilities with respect to No-Charge Products, including any Support, warranty and indemnity obligations.
12. IP Rights in the Cloud Products and Feedback. Cloud
Products are made available on a limited access basis, and no ownership right
is conveyed to you, irrespective of the use of terms such as “purchase” or
“sale”. We and our licensors have and retain all right, title
and interest, including all intellectual property rights, in and to Our
Technology (including the Cloud Products). From time to time, you may choose to
submit Feedback to us. We may in connection with any of our products or
services freely use, copy, disclose, license, distribute and exploit any
Feedback in any manner without any obligation, royalty or restriction based on
intellectual property rights or otherwise. No Feedback will be considered your
Confidential Information, and nothing in these Terms limits our right to
independently use, develop, evaluate, or market products or services, whether
incorporating Feedback or otherwise.
13. Confidentiality. Except as otherwise set forth in
these Terms, each party agrees that all code, inventions, know-how and
business, technical and financial information disclosed to such party (“Receiving Party”) by the disclosing party ("Disclosing Party") constitute the
confidential property of the Disclosing Party (“Confidential Information”), provided that
it is identified as confidential at the time of disclosure or should be
reasonably known by the Receiving Party to be confidential or proprietary due
to the nature of the information disclosed and the circumstances surrounding
the disclosure. Any of Our Technology and any performance information relating
to the Cloud Products will be deemed our Confidential Information without any
marking or further designation. Except as expressly authorized herein, the
Receiving Party will (1) hold in confidence and not disclose any Confidential
Information to third parties and (2) not use Confidential Information for any
purpose other than fulfilling its obligations and exercising its rights under
these Terms. The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information to its
employees, agents, contractors and other
representatives having a legitimate need to know, provided that they are bound
to confidentiality obligations no less protective of the Disclosing Party than
this Section 13 and that the Receiving Party remains responsible for compliance
by them with the terms of this Section 13. The Receiving Party's
confidentiality obligations will not apply to information which the Receiving
Party can document: (i) was rightfully in its
possession or known to it prior to receipt of the Confidential Information;
(ii) is or has become public knowledge through no fault of the Receiving Party;
(iii) is rightfully obtained by the Receiving Party from a third party without
breach of any confidentiality obligation; or (iv) is independently developed by
employees of the Receiving Party who had no access to such information. The
Receiving Party may also disclose Confidential Information if so required pursuant to a regulation, law or court order
(but only to the minimum extent required to comply with such regulation or
order and with advance notice to the Disclosing Party). The Receiving Party
acknowledges that disclosure of Confidential Information would cause
substantial harm for which damages alone would not be a sufficient remedy, and
therefore that upon any such disclosure by the Receiving Party the Disclosing
Party will be entitled to appropriate equitable relief in addition to whatever
other remedies it might have at law.
14. Term and Termination.
14.1. Term. These Terms are effective as of the
Effective Date and expire on the date of expiration or termination of all
Subscription Terms.
14.2. Termination by Kobik Tech..
We may terminate these Terms (including all related Orders) if you (a) fail to
cure any material breach of these Terms within thirty (30) days after notice;
(b) cease operation without a successor; or (c) seek protection under any
bankruptcy, receivership, trust deed, creditors’ arrangement, composition or
comparable proceeding, or if any such proceeding is instituted against you (and
not dismissed within sixty (60) days thereafter). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, we may terminate these Terms immediately upon any breach by you or
your End Users of Section 3.3 or Section 13. If we terminate these Terms,
without prejudice to any other rights we may have, any unpaid fees covering the
remainder of the then-current Subscription Term or related services period (as
applicable) shall become immediately due and payable.
14.3. Termination by You. You may choose to stop using
the Cloud Products and terminate these Terms (including all Orders) at any time
for any reason upon written notice to us. Upon any such termination (i) you will not be entitled to a refund of any pre-paid
fees and (ii) if you have not already paid all applicable fees for the
then-current Subscription Term or related services period (as applicable), any
such fees that are outstanding will become immediately due and payable.
14.4. Effects of Termination. Upon any expiration or
termination of these Terms, you must cease using all Cloud Products and delete
(or at our request, return) all Confidential Information or other materials of
ours in your possession, including on any third-party systems operated on your
behalf. You will certify such deletion upon our request. You will not have
access to Your Data (and we may delete all of Your
Data unless legally prohibited) after expiration or termination of these Terms
(or its applicable Subscription Term), so you should make sure to export Your
Data using the functionality of the Cloud Products during the applicable
Subscription Term. In no event will termination relieve you of your obligation
to pay any fees payable to us for the remainder of any applicable Subscription
Term. Except where an exclusive remedy may be specified in these Terms, the
exercise by either party of any remedy, including termination, will be without
prejudice to any other remedies it may have under these Terms, by law or
otherwise.
14.5. Survival. The following provisions will survive
any termination or expiration of these Terms: Sections 3.3 (Restrictions), 5.4
(Your Indemnity), 6.1 (Third-Party Products), 7.4 (Payment), 8 (Taxes not
included), 11 (Evaluations, trials, and betas) (disclaimers and use
restrictions only), 12 (IP Rights in the Cloud Products and Feedback), 13

(Limitation of Liability), 22 (Dispute Resolution) and 22 (General Provisions).
15 Warranties and Disclaimer.
15.1. Mutual Warranties. Each party represents and
warrants that it has the legal power and authority to enter
into these Terms.
15.2 WARRANTY DISCLAIMER. ALL CLOUD PRODUCTS (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
NO-CHARGE PRODUCTS) AND SUPPORT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS,” AND WE AND OUR SUPPLIERS
EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS OF ANY KIND,
INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF NON-INFRINGEMENT, TITLE, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE, FUNCTIONALITY OR MERCHANTABILITY, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR
STATUTORY. WITHOUT LIMITING OUR EXPRESS OBLIGATIONS IN THESE TERMS, WE DO NOT
WARRANT THAT YOUR USE OF THE CLOUD PRODUCTS WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE,
THAT WE WILL REVIEW YOUR DATA FOR ACCURACY OR THAT WE WILL PRESERVE OR MAINTAIN
YOUR DATA WITHOUT LOSS. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT USE OF THE
CLOUD PRODUCTS NECESSARILY INVOLVES TRANSMISSION OF YOUR DATA OVER NETWORKS
THAT WE DO NOT OWN, OPERATE OR CONTROL, AND WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY OF
YOUR DATA LOST, ALTERED, INTERCEPTED OR STORED ACROSS SUCH NETWORKS. WE CANNOT
GUARANTEE THAT OUR SECURITY PROCEDURES WILL BE ERROR-FREE, THAT TRANSMISSIONS
OF YOUR DATA WILL ALWAYS BE SECURE OR THAT UNAUTHORIZED THIRD PARTIES WILL
NEVER BE ABLE TO DEFEAT OUR SECURITY MEASURES OR THOSE OF OUR THIRD PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS. WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR
DELAYS, INTERRUPTIONS, SERVICE FAILURES OR OTHER PROBLEMS INHERENT IN USE OF THE INTERNET AND ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS OR OTHER
SYSTEMS OUTSIDE OUR REASONABLE CONTROL. YOU MAY HAVE OTHER STATUTORY RIGHTS,
BUT THE DURATION OF STATUTORILY REQUIRED WARRANTIES, IF ANY, WILL BE LIMITED TO
THE SHORTEST PERIOD PERMITTED BY LAW.
16. Limitation of Liability.
16.1. Consequential Damages Waiver. EXCEPT FOR
EXCLUDED CLAIMS (AS DEFINED BELOW), NEITHER PARTY (NOR ITS SUPPLIERS) WILL HAVE
ANY LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS FOR ANY LOSS OF USE,
LOST OR INACCURATE DATA, LOST PROFITS, FAILURE OF SECURITY MECHANISMS,
INTERRUPTION OF BUSINESS, COSTS OF DELAY, OR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL,
RELIANCE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, EVEN IF INFORMED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES IN ADVANCE.
16.2. Liability Cap. EXCEPT FOR EXCLUDED CLAIMS, EACH PARTY’S AND ITS SUPPLIERS’ AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO THE OTHER
ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED US$100. If any law
implies in this Agreement any term, condition or warranty which cannot be
excluded or limited, then to the extent permitted by law, our liability for
breach of any such term, condition or warranty is limited to: (1) in the case
of goods, at our option (A) the re-supply of the goods, or of equivalent goods;
or (B) the payment of the cost of having the goods supplied again; and (2) in
the case of services, at our option (A) the re-supply of the services; or (B)
the payment of the cost of having the services supplied again.
16.3. Excluded Claims. “Excluded Claims” means (1) amounts owed by you under
any Orders, (2) either party’s express indemnification obligations in these
Terms, and (3) your breach of Section 3.3 (Restrictions).
16.4. Nature of Claims and Failure of Essential
Purpose. The parties agree that the waivers and limitations specified in this
Section 16 apply regardless of the form of action, whether in contract, tort
(including negligence), strict liability or otherwise and will survive and
apply even if any limited remedy specified in these Terms is found to have
failed of its essential purpose.
17. Publicity Rights. We may identify you as a Kobik
Tech. customer in our promotional materials. We will promptly stop doing so
upon your request sent to info@kobiktech.com.
18. Dispute Resolution.
18.1. Informal Resolution. In the event of any
controversy or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms, the parties
will consult and negotiate with each other and, recognizing their mutual
interests, attempt to reach a solution satisfactory to both parties. If the
parties do not reach settlement within a period of sixty (60) days, either
party may pursue relief as may be available under these Terms pursuant to
Section 18.2 (Governing Law; Jurisdiction). All negotiations pursuant to this
Section 18.1 will be confidential and treated as compromise and settlement
negotiations for purposes of all rules and codes of
evidence of applicable legislation and jurisdictions.
18.2. Governing Law; Jurisdiction. These
Terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia if your principal
place of business is located outside of the United States of America and in
such case the parties submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of
New South Wales, Australia. If your principal place of business is located
within the United States of America, these Terms shall be governed by the laws
of California, USA and in such case the parties submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction
of the courts of Santa Clara County, California.
18.3. Injunctive Relief; Enforcement.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 18.1 (Informal Resolution) and 18.2
(Governing Law; Jurisdiction), nothing in these Terms will prevent us from
seeking injunctive relief with respect to a violation of intellectual property
rights, confidentiality obligations or enforcement or recognition of any award
or order in any appropriate jurisdiction.
18.4. Exclusion of UN Convention and UCITA. The terms
of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the Sale of Goods do not
apply to these Terms. The Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act (UCITA)
will not apply to these Terms regardless of when or where adopted.

subject to export restrictions by the United States government and may be
subject to import restrictions by certain foreign governments, and you agree to
comply with all applicable export and import laws and regulations in your
access to, use of, and download of the Cloud Products (or any part thereof).

the United States or allow the export or re-export of any part of the Cloud
Products or any direct product thereof: (a) into (or to a national or resident
of) any embargoed or terrorist-supporting country; (b) to anyone on the U.S.

time, with notice to you in accordance with Section 22.1 (Notices) or by
posting the modified Agreement on our website. Together with notice,
we will specify the effective date of the modifications.

No-Charge Products. If you object to the modifications, your exclusive remedy
is to cease using the No-Charge Products.
20.2. Paid Subscriptions. Except as otherwise
indicated below, modifications to these Terms will take effect at the next
renewal of your Subscription Term and will automatically apply as of the
renewal date unless you elect not to renew pursuant to Section 7.2 (Renewals).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in some cases (e.g., to address compliance with
Laws, or as necessary for new features) we may specify that such modifications
become effective during your then-current Subscription Term. If the effective
date of such modifications is during your then-current Subscription Term and
you object to the modifications, then (as your exclusive remedy) you may
terminate your affected Orders upon notice to us, and we will refund you any
fees you have pre-paid for use of the affected Cloud Products for the
terminated portion of the applicable Subscription Term. To exercise this right,
you must provide us with notice of your objection and termination within thirty

doubt, any Order is subject to the version of these Terms in effect at the time
of the Order.

to take effect during your then-current Subscription Term in
order to respond to changes in our products, our business, or Laws. In
this case, unless required by Laws, we agree not to make modifications to the
