Customer waives any moral rights in such Feedback to the extent permitted by applicable law.

6. Fees and Payment

6.1 Fees

Customer shall pay all Fees specified in the applicable Order Form. All Fees are quoted in United States dollars unless otherwise stated.

6.2 Invoicing and Payment Terms

Unless otherwise specified in the Order Form, Fees are due in advance on a monthly or annual basis. Provider shall issue invoices in accordance with the billing cycle specified in the Order Form. Payment is due within [FILL: e.g., "thirty (30)"] days of the invoice date. Provider may use a third-party payment processor to collect Fees.

6.3 Taxes

All Fees are exclusive of taxes, duties, levies, and similar governmental assessments. Customer is responsible for all applicable taxes (excluding taxes based on Provider's net income or payroll). If Provider is required to collect or remit taxes on Customer's behalf, such taxes will be invoiced to Customer and paid in accordance with Section 6.2.

6.4 Price Adjustments

Provider may adjust pricing at the start of any renewal term upon at least sixty (60) days' prior written notice. Price adjustments shall not exceed [FILL: e.g., "ten percent (10%)" OR "the greater of ten percent (10%) or the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index (CPI-U)"] per renewal term, unless otherwise agreed in writing. If Customer does not agree to the adjusted pricing, Customer may terminate the affected Order Form by providing written notice before the renewal date.

6.5 Late Payment

If any undisputed amount is not paid when due, Provider may: (a) charge interest on overdue amounts at the lesser of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law; (b) suspend Customer's access to the Services upon fifteen (15) days' written notice if payment remains outstanding; and (c) recover all reasonable costs of collection, including attorney's fees and court costs. Suspension of Services for non-payment shall not relieve Customer of its obligation to pay all outstanding Fees.

6.6 Fee Disputes

Customer must notify Provider in writing of any disputed invoice items within thirty (30) days of the invoice date, providing a reasonable description of the basis for the dispute. The parties shall negotiate in good faith to resolve the dispute. Undisputed amounts must be paid in accordance with the standard payment terms regardless of any pending dispute.

7. Service Levels and Support

7.1 Availability

Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the availability of the SaaS Platform. [FILL: e.g., "Provider targets a monthly uptime percentage of 99.9% for the cloud-hosted Services, as measured by Provider's monitoring systems, excluding Scheduled Maintenance and Excused Downtime." OR "Specific uptime commitments, if any, are set forth in the applicable Order Form or Service Level Agreement (SLA) addendum."]

7.2 Scheduled Maintenance

Provider shall perform scheduled maintenance during off-peak hours and shall provide at least forty-eight (48) hours' advance notice to Customer whenever practicable. Scheduled maintenance windows shall not count against any uptime commitments.

7.3 Excused Downtime

Uptime commitments, if any, do not apply to unavailability caused by:

  • Force majeure events (Section 14.5);
  • Actions or omissions of Customer or its Authorized Users, including misconfiguration;
  • Failures of Customer's network, hardware, or software;
  • Third-party service outages, API changes, or rate limiting beyond Provider's control;
  • Customer's Self-Hosted Deployment infrastructure; or
  • Emergency maintenance required to address security vulnerabilities or critical defects, provided that Provider uses reasonable efforts to notify Customer promptly.

7.4 Support

Provider shall provide technical support to Customer in accordance with the support plan associated with Customer's subscription tier, as described on the Website or in the applicable Order Form. Support may include email support, documentation access, and, for certain tiers, dedicated account management or priority response times.

8.4 Injunctive Relief

Each party acknowledges that any breach or threatened breach of this Section 8 may cause irreparable harm to the Disclosing Party for which monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy. Accordingly, the Disclosing Party shall be entitled to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction without the necessity of posting a bond or proving actual damages, in addition to any other remedies available at law or in equity.

8.5 Duration

The obligations under this Section 8 shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement for a period of five (5) years, except with respect to trade secrets, which shall be protected for as long as they qualify as trade secrets under applicable law.

14.1 Governing Law

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to its conflict of law principles. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) does not apply to this Agreement.

  • Binding Arbitration: Disputes not resolved through escalation shall be submitted to final and binding arbitration administered by [FILL: e.g., "the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules" OR "JAMS under its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures"]. The arbitration shall take place in San Francisco, California. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant any remedy available at law or in equity. The arbitrator's award shall be final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
  • Equitable Relief: Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of Intellectual Property Rights or Confidential Information, without the necessity of posting a bond or proving actual damages.

This Agreement, together with all Order Forms, Statements of Work, the Privacy Policy, the Data Processing Addendum (if applicable), and any other addenda expressly incorporated by reference, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, proposals, negotiations, representations, and warranties, both written and oral. No terms or conditions contained in any Customer purchase order, acknowledgment, or other business form shall modify or supplement this Agreement, and any such terms are expressly rejected.

14.5 Force Majeure

Neither party shall be liable for any failure or delay in performing its obligations under this Agreement (other than payment obligations) to the extent such failure or delay results from causes beyond the affected party's reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, natural disasters, war, terrorism, riots, embargoes, epidemics or pandemics, government actions or orders, power failures, internet or telecommunications outages, cyberattacks, or labor disputes. The affected party shall provide prompt written notice and use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate the impact. If a force majeure event continues for more than ninety (90) days, either party may terminate the affected Order Form upon written notice.

14.6 Severability

If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator, such provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable while preserving the parties' original intent, or if modification is not possible, shall be severed. The remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect, and the parties shall negotiate in good faith to replace the severed provision with a valid provision that achieves the same economic and legal effect.

14.7 Waiver

No failure or delay by either party in exercising any right, power, or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise preclude any other or further exercise of such right or the exercise of any other right. All waivers must be in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party.

Customer may not assign, transfer, or delegate this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of Provider.
