Triblio Platform Terms of Service

BEFORE USING TRIBLIO’S PLATFORM APPLICATION (AS DEFINED BELOW), PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF SERVICE (THESE “TERMS”). THESE TERMS ARE INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE INTO THE SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT EXECUTED BY THE COMPANY IDENTIFIED AS THE “CUSTOMER” THEREIN (“CUSTOMER”) AND TRIBLIO INC. (“TRIBLIO”), PURSUANT TO WHICH THE CUSTOMER RECEIVES THE RIGHT TO ACCESS AND USE THE PLATFORM APPLICATION (THE “SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT”). THESE TERMS AND THE SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT TOGETHER FORM A BINDING AND EXECUTED WRITTEN AGREEMENT BETWEEN CUSTOMER AND TRIBLIO, EFFECTIVE AS OF THE FIRST DATE OF MUTUAL EXECUTION BY TRIBLIO AND CUSTOMER OF THE SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT (THE “AGREEMENT”).‍

1. The Platform Application.‍

(a) Access and Availability. Triblio will make the Platform Application available to (a) Customer and (b) individuals who are authorized by Customer to use the Platform Application on behalf of the Customer and who have been supplied user identification and passwords by Customer (or by Triblio at Customer’s request), including employees, consultants, contractors, and agents of Customer (“Users”). Triblio hereby grants the Customer and its Users a limited, non-exclusive right to access and use one instance of the Platform Application, in each case during the Subscription Term and in accordance with this Agreement (including the specific access rights and limitations set forth in the Subscription Agreement) (the “Subscription”). Customer’s Subscription is not dependent on any future functionality or features (or any public comments or other disclosure made by Triblio with respect thereto). “Platform Application” means the online, website application provided by Triblio via http://www.Triblio.com or at such other designated URL as Triblio may assign from time to time (including all components thereof, on an individual and collective basis).

(b) Subscription Term. Customer’s initial subscription term for the Platform Application commences on the expected “Subscription Start Date” stated in the Subscription Agreement, or, if none is provided in the Subscription Agreement, the day Users’ login names and a password are issued to Customer to access the Platform Application under the Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Start Date”). The Subscription will continue for the “Initial Subscription Term” specified in the Subscription Agreement (the “Initial Subscription Term”), and will automatically renew for successive one (1) year periods (each, a “Renewal Term”) at the Platform Application subscription price in effect on a generally commercially available basis at the time of the renewal, based on the actual number of Users on Platform Application and product functionality being used by Customer, unless (i) either party gives the other party written notice of nonrenewal at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the Initial Subscription Term or the Renewal Term then in effect or (ii) the parties mutually execute a separate Subscription Agreement for such renewal, in which case (a) the separate mutually executed renewal Subscription Agreement will be deemed to be an addendum to and become part of the Agreement, (b) the renewal term set forth in such separate mutually executed renewal Subscription Agreement will be deemed to be a “Renewal Term” hereunder, and (c) this sentence will continue to apply for further subsequent renewals. The Initial Subscription Term plus all Renewal Terms are referred to herein as the “Subscription Term”.

(c) Customer Affiliates. The Subscription is granted solely to the Customer and its Users, and not any other third parties (specifically, not to any of Customer’s Affiliates), unless it is otherwise set forth in the Subscription Agreement. Customer’s Affiliates may purchase Subscriptions to the Platform Application under separate Subscription Agreements. If any of Customer’s Affiliates are granted any right to access or use the Platform Application hereunder, Customer will remain fully responsible and liable for all acts and omissions of such Affiliates and will cause such Affiliates to comply with the provisions of this Agreement. “Affiliate” means, with respect to a party, any entity which directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with such party, wherein “control”, for purposes of this definition, means direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 50% of the voting interests of such party.

(d) Service Level Agreement and Support. Triblio will provide the general maintenance services and technical support described in the Service Level Agreement (“SLA”) set forth in Schedule A.

2. Customer Conduct and Use.‍

Customer will retain all right, title and interest in and to all data uploaded by Customer and its Users to the Platform Application that would typically be provided in the planning, execution or analysis of marketing programs, as well as all information generated by Users using of the Platform Application (collectively, “Customer Data”). Customer hereby grants to Triblio the right to host, transmit, use and/or display Customer Data in order to provide the Platform Application in accordance with this Agreement.

Triblio will not access Customer Data uploaded by Customer except: (i) to respond to service or technical problems; (ii) to monitor compliance with this Agreement; (iii) if there has been a violation of this Agreement; (iv) to assess or determine whether the Platform Application is being properly implemented and configured for the service(s) purchased by Customer; (v) at Customer’s request; or (vi) upon Customer’s written consent (including by email).

v. Allow any third party that offers or provides services that are competitive with Triblio’s products or services to use or access the Platform Application, use or access the Platform Application to develop a product or service that is competitive with Triblio’s products or services or otherwise copy any ideas, features, functions or graphics of the Platform Application;
vi. Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, translate or seek to obtain the source code of the Platform Application, or modify or create a derivative work of the Platform Application or any related documentation; or
vii. Disclose (whether orally or in writing) information or analysis regarding the specifications or performance of the Platform Application (including benchmark tests).

(d) Communications. Customer will be responsible for the content of all communications sent using the Platform Application. Customer will not use the Platform Application to communicate any message or material that (i) is libelous, harmful to minors, obscene or constitutes pornography; (ii) infringes the intellectual property rights of any third party or is otherwise unlawful; or (iii) would otherwise give rise to civil liability, or that constitutes or encourages conduct that could constitute a criminal offense, under any applicable law. Triblio will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Customer with the opportunity to remove or disable access to any offending material or content.

(e) Suspension. In the event of any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement by Customer or any Users (including non-payment of fees), without limiting Triblio’s other rights and remedies, Triblio may immediately suspend Customer’s access to the Platform Application.

3. Confidentiality‍

(a) Scope. “Confidential Information” means all non-public information of a party (“Disclosing Party”) disclosed to the other party (“Receiving Party”) under this Agreement, in writing, orally, electronically, or in any other form,, that is designated, at or before the time of disclosure, in writing or identified as confidential at the time of disclosure or should be reasonably known by the Receiving Party to be confidential due to the nature of the information disclosed and the circumstances surrounding the disclosure. The terms and conditions of the Agreement and the Platform Application (including source and object codes) are Confidential Information of Triblio. Confidential Information shall not include information the Receiving Party can document: (i) was rightfully in its possession or known to it prior to receipt; (ii) is or has become public knowledge or publicly available 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, and did not use any of, such Confidential Information.

(b) Restrictions. The Receiving Party will: (i) not use the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information for any purpose outside of this Agreement; (ii) not disclose such Confidential Information to any person or entity, other than its directors, employees, consultants and professional advisers, and actual or prospective investors (collectively, “Representatives”), who have a “need to know” for the Receiving Party to exercise its rights or perform its obligations hereunder, provided that such Representatives are bound by agreements or, in the case of professional advisers, ethical duties respecting such Confidential Information in accordance with the terms of this Section 3; and (iii) use commercially reasonable measures to protect the confidentiality of such Confidential Information, such precaution not to be less than the precautions each party takes to protect the confidentiality of its own Confidential Information, and in no event shall be less than reasonable care.

(c) Exceptions. If the Receiving Party is required by applicable law or court order to make any disclosure of such Confidential Information, it will first give written notice of such requirement to the Disclosing Party, and permit the Disclosing Party to intervene in any relevant proceedings to protect its interests in its Confidential Information, and provide full cooperation to the Disclosing Party in seeking to obtain such protection.

(d) Equitable Relief. The Receiving Party acknowledges that unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information could cause substantial harm to the Disclosing Party for which damages alone might 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 or equity.

4. Fees; Interest; Taxes. ‍

Customer will pay to Triblio all of the fees specified in the Subscription Agreement, in United States currency, unless otherwise specified in the Subscription Agreement.

Unless otherwise stated in the Subscription Agreement, all fees are due within thirty (30) days from the invoice date.

All amounts payable hereunder are exclusive of any sales, use and other taxes or duties, however designated (collectively, “Taxes”). Customer will be solely responsible for payment of all Taxes, except for those Taxes based on the income of Triblio. Customer will not withhold any Taxes from any amounts due Triblio. If Triblio pays any such Taxes on behalf of Customer, Customer will promptly reimburse Triblio for such payments.

5. Proprietary Rights. ‍

Customer is permitted to access and use the Platform Application, but this Agreement is not otherwise an agreement for the sale or license of any software. Customer acknowledges that the Platform Application contains copyrighted and proprietary products and materials, certain components of which are licensed from one or more of Triblio’s licensors. Triblio and Triblio’s licensors solely and exclusively retain all right, title and interest in and to the Platform Application and related support, documentation and professional services deliverables, and all related and underlying software, interfaces, databases, data models, structures, non-Customer-specific data, aggregated statistical data, technology, reports and other intellectual property, plus all intellectual and other proprietary rights therein or thereto (all of the foregoing, the “Triblio IP”).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Triblio reasonably believes that Customer’s use of any portion of the Platform Application is likely to be enjoined by reason of a Claim of infringement, violation or misappropriation of any third party intellectual property rights then Triblio may, at its expense and in its sole discretion: (i) procure for Customer the right to continue using the Platform Application; or (ii) replace or modify the applicable software, services or other material so that there is no longer any infringement, violation or misappropriation, provided that such replacement or modification does not adversely affect the functional capabilities of the Platform Application.

The foregoing indemnification obligation of Triblio will not apply: (1) if the Platform Application is modified by any party other than Triblio, but solely to the extent the alleged infringement is caused by such modification; (2) if the Platform Application is combined with other non-Triblio products, applications, or processes not authorized by Triblio, but solely to the extent the alleged infringement is caused by such combination; (3) to any unauthorized use of the Platform Application; (4) to any third party deliverables or components contained within the Platform Application that are not provided by Triblio; or (5) to any action arising as a result of the Customer Data. THIS SECTION 9(a) SETS FORTH TRIBLIO’S SOLE LIABILITY AND CUSTOMER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INFRINGEMENT.

(b) Customer Indemnification. Customer will indemnify, defend and hold Triblio and its Affiliates, and their officers, directors, employees, agents and contractors (“Triblio Indemnitees”), harmless from and against any Losses incurred in connection with Claims against Triblio Indemnitees arising from or relating to Customer’s or its Users’ communications with its actual and potential customers (including but not limited to advertisements), use of Customer Data or use of the Platform Application that is not consistent with the terms of this Agreement, in each case except to the extent Triblio is obligated to indemnify Customer under Section 9(a).
