- CONFIDENTIALITY. We and you acknowledge that, in the course of performance of this Agreement, either may obtain information from the other party which it knows or has reason to know is of a confidential and/or proprietary nature (“Confidential Information”). Without limiting the above, the Software, Service, the documentation, the Feedback and any product roadmap is our Confidential Information and Usage Data is your Confidential Information. Except as expressly stated in this Agreement, during the Term and at all times thereafter, neither party may disclose any such Confidential Information to any third party, nor may either party use such Confidential Information of the other party for any purpose, other than as permitted herein. Confidential Information will not include any information which: (i) are or become readily available to the trade or public through no fault of the recipient of the Confidential Information; (ii) is subsequently lawfully and in good faith obtained by a party from an independent third party without breach of this Agreement; (iii) the recipient can establish that the information was in its possession prior to the date of disclosure of such Confidential Information; or (iv) is developed independently by the recipient without reference to any Confidential Information of the other party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party may disclose Confidential Information to the limited extent such disclosure is required by applicable law, a court of competent jurisdiction or a governmental agency; provided that such party promptly notifies the other party to the extent legally permissible of such required disclosure to provide the other party an opportunity to object to such disclosure and seek a protective order or other appropriate relief.
- FEES; TAXES. In consideration for the Service and license to the Software, Customer will pay Delta Bravo the fees (“Fees”) set forth in the Order. All Fees will be billed at the frequency specified in the Order and are due within thirty (30) days of receipt of invoice by Customer. Any unpaid and uncontested balance due and owing will incur a penalty charge of 1.5% per month. Delta Bravo’s fees do not include any taxes, levies, duties or similar governmental assessments of any nature, including, for example, value-added, sales, use or withholding taxes, assessable by any jurisdiction whatsoever (collectively, “Taxes”). Customer is responsible for paying all Taxes associated with the purchases hereunder. If Delta Bravo has the legal obligation to pay or collect Taxes for which the Customer is responsible under this Section 6, Delta Bravo will invoice the Customer for that amount unless the Customer provides Delta Bravo with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority. For clarity, Delta Bravo is solely responsible for taxes assessable against it based on its income, property and employees.
- INDEMNIFICATION.
7.1. By Customer. You shall defend Delta Bravo, its officers, directors, employees and agents from and against any allegation or claim by any third party arising from i) our use of Usage Data as permitted herein and ii) a breach by you of your obligations under this Agreement.
7.2. By Delta Bravo. Delta Bravo will defend Customer from any claim brought by a third party that any use of, or access to, the Service or Software by Customer violates, infringes or misappropriates, as applicable, any third-party intellectual property right. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Delta Bravo shall have no obligation or liability to the extent that the alleged infringement or misappropriation arises from Customer’s use of the Services or Software other than in accordance with this Agreement. Upon the occurrence of any claim for which indemnification is or may be due under this Section, or in the event that Delta Bravo believes that such a claim is likely, Delta Bravo may, at its option (i) modify the Service or Software so that it becomes non-infringing but functionally similar, or substitute a functionally similar alternative; (ii) obtain a license to the applicable third-party intellectual property at no cost to Customer; or (iii) terminate the applicable Order on written notice to Customer and refund any unused, pre-paid fees.
7.3. Procedures. The indemnifying party shall pay all damages finally awarded or paid in settlement of any such Claims. The indemnified party must notify the indemnifying party promptly in writing of any claim for indemnification hereunder, and provide, at the indemnifying party’s expense (to the extent of out-of-pocket expenses only), all reasonably necessary assistance, information and authority to allow the indemnifying party to control the defense and settlement of such Claim; provided that the failure of the indemnified party to promptly inform the indemnifying party of any Claim shall not excuse the indemnifying party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent such failure materially prejudices the indemnifying party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnifying party shall not enter into any settlement of the defense of such action, other than with respect to the payment of monies, without the Indemnified party’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The indemnified party may participate at its expense in the defense and/or settlement of any such action with counsel of its choosing and at its sole expense.
- FORCE MAJEURE. Except for the obligation to pay money, neither party shall be liable for any delays or failures in performance to the extent such delays are caused by labor strikes, war, civil unrest, natural disasters, acts of god or other circumstances beyond its control.
- GENERAL. This Agreement and each Order constitute the complete and exclusive agreement between you and Delta Bravo. The terms and conditions of this Agreement will not be modified unless both you and a Delta Bravo authorized representative execute a separate written instrument. Any notice required to be given under this Agreement will be sent to the address indicated in the Order, or such other address provided by the party in writing. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be unenforceable for any reason, such provision will be reformed only to the extent necessary to make it enforceable, and such decision will not affect the enforceability of such provision under other circumstances and in other jurisdictions, or of the remaining provisions under all circumstances. Any delay or failure by either party to this Agreement to exercise any of its rights hereunder will not constitute or be deemed a waiver or forfeiture of such rights. You will not assign this Agreement, whether voluntarily or by operation of law, nor will you delegate your duties hereunder and any attempt to do so will be null and void. This Agreement will be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of South Carolina without regard to conflict of laws rules that would cause the laws of any other jurisdiction to apply. Any dispute with Delta Bravo or its affiliates relating in any way hereto or your use of the Service will be adjudicated exclusively in the courts located in York County, South Carolina, and you consent to such exclusive jurisdiction and venue. The Software and any software components of the Service are a “commercial item” as that term is defined at 48 C.F.R. 2.101, consisting of “commercial computer software” and “commercial computer software documentation” as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212. Consistent with 48 C.F.R. 12.212 and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4, all U.S. Government end users acquire the Software and Service with only those rights set forth therein. For contractual purposes, you (i) consent to receive communications from us in an electronic form; and (ii) agree that all terms and conditions, agreements, notices, documents, disclosures, and other communications (“Communications”) that we provide to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such Communications would satisfy if it were in writing. Your consent to receive Communications and do business electronically, and our agreement to do so, applies to all of your interactions and transactions with us.
