In exchange for the Services to be provided and the licenses granted under this Agreement, commencing on the Service Start Date, Subscriber shall pay Licensor the Fees identified in the applicable Purchase Order, plus any other applicable fees, costs, and expenses contained in the Purchase Order and this Agreement. Unless otherwise set forth in the applicable Purchase Order, all Fees are payable in advance on an annual basis and are based on the Services and the number of Authorized Users identified in the Purchase Order. Subscriber may add additional Authorized Users by either executing a new Purchase Order or amending an existing Purchase Order. In case of additional licenses being purchased part-way through a subscription Term, Licensor will pro rata the Fees and align the expiry date to allow renewal dates to be synchronized across the Service. Except if the parties expressly agreed otherwise, payment shall be made by bank transfer, in immediately available funds, to the bank account that Licensor may designate from time to time. Payment shall be made in Euros, and for that purpose the amounts due shall be converted into Euros at the exchange rate applicable on the date payment is made.
(b) Late Payments. If you fail to pay the Fees by the due date specified on the invoice, Licensor shall be entitled to interest from the day on which the Fees became due. Both parties agree that the rate of interest on overdue invoices shall be 1.5% per month, or the maximum amount allowable by applicable law, whichever is greater.
(c) Taxes. The Subscriber will be solely responsible for and will promptly pay; or reimburse the Licensor for of all applicable taxes, including – but not limited to – sales, use, excise, withholding, value-added, or similar taxes, assessments, or duties (or other similar charges) imposed by any governmental agency on or with respect to any Services or goods provided by the Licensor to the Subscriber, or the amounts payable to the Licensor therefore (collectively, “Taxes”). This includes any interest and penalty imposed on Taxes as a result of any act or omission of Licensor in accordance with the direction or request of Subscriber.
The Subscriber will provide the Licensor written evidence of any withholding tax paid by the Licensor or any tax exemption on which Subscriber wishes to rely. If Subscriber is obliged to withhold or deduct any portion of the Payment, then Licensor shall be entitled to receive from the Subscriber such amounts as will ensure that the net receipt, after tax and duties, to Licensor in respect of the Payment is the same as it would have been were the payment not subject to the tax or duties.
If the Subscriber qualifies for tax exemption, they must provide the Licensor, within a timeframe deemed reasonable by the Licensor, any necessary exemption certification or other documents reasonably requested by the Licensor.

All rights not expressly granted to You under this Agreement are reserved by Licensor. Nothing in this section affects any right, title, and interest subsisting in any Subscriber Data.
The Licensor shall defend, at its expense, any action brought against Subscriber to the extent that the action is based only on an assertion that the Software, or any part thereof provided under this Agreement, when used within the scope of this Agreement, infringes a patent or copyright or trade secret of a third party, and it shall pay any settlement and any costs, damages and expenses finally awarded against Subscriber which are solely attributable to such claim provided that Subscriber gives Licensor prompt written notice of the existence of any such claim or proceeding, Licensor is given the exclusive control of the defense or settlement thereof and that Subscriber provides to Licensor all information it has available in connection with such claim and all reasonable assistance in connection therewith. In the event that a third party brings such an infringement claim, or if Licensor believes there is the possibility of such claim, Licensor shall have the rights at its sole election to (i) procure for Subscriber the right to continue using the Software, or (ii) modify or replace the Software so that it becomes non-infringing, or (iii) terminate the rights and license granted hereunder and refund Subscriber the Fees paid to Licensor. Licensor shall have no liability under this section 6 if the claim for any infringement is based upon acts or omissions of Subscriber or third parties (such as, without limitation, if based on modifications made to the Software by Subscriber or by any third parties, or on the use of items not provided by Licensor, or on a use of the Software by Subscriber in a manner contrary to the provisions of this Agreement). Subscriber shall indemnify Licensor from and against any claims described in this clause which may be brought against Licensor. This section 6 contains all liability and obligations of Licensor with respect to infringement of any industrial or intellectual property right and trade secrets by the Software.
Subject to all applicable data privacy laws, and Licensor’s Privacy Policy attached hereto and incorporated herein, to the extent that you have title and interest to any information or data gained in your use of the Software, you grant Licensor a license to use any information or data derived from the Software (including Subscriber Data), such as analytics or performance metrics, configuration, and traffic data, for legitimate business purposes, including monetization, machine learning and artificial intelligence application, and development and sales of services and solutions related to the information and data. Please read our Privacy Policy carefully before using our Service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Licensor nor you will retain, use or disclose consumer personal information for any purpose other than the specific purpose of performing the services specified in this Agreement. Any transfer of consumer personal information will be for business purposes only, and shall not be sold or shared, retained, used or disclosed for any purpose outside of the direct business relationship established with this Agreement.

This Agreement shall be effective for the Term, unless terminated earlier in accordance herewith. Modifications in any ongoing Fees in connection with the Service shall be communicated to Subscriber no later than thirty (30) days prior to their effective date, and such modified Fees shall be deemed to replace those previously stated in the Purchase Order. This Agreement, including all Purchase Orders may be terminated as follows: (a) if either Party commits a material breach of this Agreement and fails to remedy such breach within thirty (30) days of receiving written notice thereof by the non-breaching Party (“Notice of Breach”), the Party giving such notice may then deliver a second written notice to the breaching Party terminating this Agreement, in which event this Agreement, and the licenses granted hereunder, will terminate on the date specified in such second notice; or (b) if a receiver is appointed over any assets of either Party or if either Party makes any arrangement with its creditors or becomes subject to an administration order or goes into liquidation or anything equivalent to the foregoing under any jurisdiction or ceases to carry on business, the other may terminate by giving written notice with immediate effect. If this Agreement is terminated before the end of its then-current term (as identified on the applicable Purchase Order) for any reason other than by Subscriber under the foregoing clauses (a) or (b) in this Section, then Subscriber will pay to Licensor as liquidated damages, with respect to a Purchase Order, the amount due by Subscriber for the previous calendar month times the number of months remaining in such Term (as identified on the applicable Purchase Order) (“Liquidated Damages”) within 30 days after such termination. The parties agree that the Liquidated Damages under this clause are not intended to be and will not be punitive in effect and that the Liquidated Damages are a genuine pre-estimate of loss (which may be difficult to ascertain) resulting from early termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if Subscriber receives any notice of late payment under this Agreement in any form, written or electronic, such notice will be deemed to be a Notice of Breach.
