Customer shall be responsible for all taxes associated with the Services (excluding taxes based on Page's net income). All Fees paid are non-refundable and are not subject to set-off. If Customer exceeds any user, file or usage limitations set forth on an Order Form, then (i) Page shall invoice Customer for such additional clients, users, files or usage at the overage rates set forth on the Order Form (or if no overage rates are set forth on the Order Form, at Page's then-current standard overage rates for such usage), in each case on a pro-rata basis from the first date of such excess usage through the end of the Order Form Initial Term or then-current Order Form Renewal Term (as applicable), and (ii) if such Order Form Term renews (in accordance with the section entitled "Term; Termination", below, such renewal shall include the additional fees for such excess users and usage.
  2. Restrictions. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, Customer shall not (and shall not permit any third party to), directly or indirectly: (i) reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to discover the source code, object code, or underlying structure, ideas, or algorithms of the Services (except to the extent applicable laws specifically prohibit such restriction); (ii) modify, translate, or create derivative works based on the Services; (iii) copy, rent, lease, distribute, pledge, assign, or otherwise transfer or encumber rights to the Services; (iv) use the Services for the benefit of a third party; (v) remove or otherwise alter any proprietary notices or labels from the Services or any portion thereof; (vi) use the Services to build an application or product that is competitive with any Page product or Services; (vii) interfere or attempt to interfere with the proper working of the Services or any activities conducted on the Services; or (viii) bypass any measures Page may use to prevent or restrict access to the Services (or other accounts, computer systems or networks connected to the Services).

  3. Customer Data.

a. For purposes of this Agreement, "Customer Data" shall mean any data, information or other material provided, uploaded, or submitted by Customer to the Services in the course of using the Services. Customer shall retain all right, title and interest in and to the Customer Data, including all intellectual property rights therein. Customer, not Page, shall have sole responsibility for the accuracy, quality, integrity, legality, reliability, appropriateness, and intellectual property ownership or right to use of all Customer Data and Company acknowledges and agrees that Page shall have no liability with respect to the foregoing. Customer represents and warrants that it has all rights necessary to provide the Customer Data to Page as contemplated hereunder, in each case without any infringement, violation or misappropriation of any third party rights (including, without limitation, intellectual property rights and rights of privacy). Page shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the security and integrity of the Services and the Customer Data. Page is not responsible to Customer for unauthorized access to Customer Data or the unauthorized use of the Services unless such access is due to Page's gross negligence or willful misconduct. Customer is responsible for the use of the Services by any person to whom Customer has given access to the Services, even if Customer did not authorize such use. Customer agrees and acknowledges that Customer Data may be irretrievably deleted if Customer's account is ninety (90) days or more delinquent.

b. Customer acknowledges and agrees that Page may (i) use and modify Customer Data for the purposes of (A) providing the Services to Customer and (B) generating De-Identified Data (as defined below), (ii) collect data in connection with Customer's use of and interaction with the Services, including report generation metrics ("Usage Data"), and (iii) freely use, retain and make available Usage Data and De-Identified Data for Page's business purposes (including without limitation, for purposes of training, testing, operating, conducting benchmarking tests, promoting and marketing Page's products and Services). For the avoidance of doubt, Customer acknowledges and agrees that Page may disclose Customer Data to its third party service providers (each, a "Service Provider") solely for the purposes of providing the Services to Customer and that such Service Provider (i) is bound by confidentiality obligations as least as strict as those contained herein and (ii) to the extent such Service Provider has access to Protected Health Information ("PHI," as defined by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 ("HIPAA")), has entered into a Business Associate Agreement ("BAA"). "De-Identified Data" means data submitted to, collected by, or generated by Page in connection with Customer's use of the Services, but only in de-identified form which can in no way be linked specifically to Customer.

c. To the extent that Customer is a Covered Entity or a Business Associate (as each of these terms is defined by HIPAA) and any Customer Data includes PHI, Customer shall notify Page prior to disclosing such PHI and Page and Customer may enter into a BAA.

  1. Output. Customer and its users may input Customer Data into the Platform in the form of inputs and receive output from the Platform in response to such inputs ("Output"). Certain Output generated by the Services may be generated through use of artificial intelligence. Customer is solely responsible for all Customer Data and represents and warrants that it has all rights, licenses, and permissions required to provide such Customer Data for use in connection with the Platform. Customer acknowledges that Output may contain errors and misstatements and may be incomplete or inaccurate. Customer is solely responsible for evaluating the Output for accuracy and appropriateness for Customer's use case, including by utilizing human review as appropriate, and Customer is solely responsible for all use of the Output, including any reliance on the accuracy, completeness or usefulness of any Output. Output may not be used as a substitute for professional advice or information and the Company makes no representations or warranties whatsoever regarding any Output, which are provided "AS IS." Customer acknowledges that due to the nature of the Services and artificial intelligence generally, Output may not be unique and it is possible that Output generated through Customer's or its users' use of any artificial intelligence-powered components of the Services may be similar to Output generated through another customer's use of the Services, or that the same input may result in different Output from one use to the next. Responses requested by and generated for other users are not considered Customer's Output.
  2. Confidentiality. Each party agrees that the business, technical and financial information, that is designated in writing as confidential, or is disclosed in a manner that a reasonable person would understand the confidentiality of the information disclosed, shall be the confidential property of the disclosing party and its licensors ("Confidential Information"). Confidential Information does not include information that (a) is previously rightfully known to the receiving party without restriction on disclosure, (b) is or becomes known to the general public, through no act or omission on the part of the receiving party, (c) is disclosed to the receiving party by a third party without breach of any separate nondisclosure obligation, or (d) is independently developed by the receiving party. Except as expressly and unambiguously allowed herein, the receiving party will hold in confidence and not use or disclose any Confidential Information and shall similarly bind its employees, consultants, and independent contractors. Upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement, all of the Confidential Information (including any copies) will be returned to the disclosing party, and receiving party will make no further use of such materials. If required by law, the receiving party may disclose Confidential Information of the disclosing party, but will give adequate prior notice of such disclosure to the disclosing party to permit the disclosing party to intervene and to request protective orders or other confidential treatment therefor.
  3. Publicity. Customer hereby grants Page a non-exclusive license to include Customer's name and standard logo within lists of customers utilizing Page's services, both on Page's public-facing website and in marketing and promotional materials. Additionally, from time to time, Customer also agrees to participate in case studies as reasonably requested by Page.
  4. Term; Termination. This Agreement shall commence upon the date that Customer accepts the terms of this Agreement and, unless earlier terminated in accordance herewith, shall last until the expiration of all Order Form Terms. In the event Customer is accessing and using the Services on a trial or evaluation basis, as indicated in the Services or otherwise by Page, prior to the execution of an Order Form (a "Trial"), Customer acknowledges and agrees that such Trial is governed by the terms set forth in this Agreement and that Page can terminate Customer's Trial immediately upon written notice to Customer. For each Order Form, unless otherwise specified therein, the "Order Form Term" shall begin as of the effective date set forth on such Order Form, and unless earlier terminated as set forth herein, (x) shall continue for the initial term specified on such Order Form (the "Order Form Initial Term"), and (y) following the Order Form Initial Term, shall automatically renew for additional successive periods of equal duration to the Order Form Initial Term (each, a "Order Form Renewal Term") unless otherwise agreed upon in the applicable Order Form. Both parties shall have the right to terminate this Agreement for convenience by providing written notice to the other party at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of such termination. In the event of a material breach of this Agreement by either party, the non-breaching party may terminate this Agreement by providing written notice to the breaching party, provided that the breaching party does not materially cure such breach within fifteen (15) days of receipt of such notice. Without limiting the foregoing, Page may suspend or limit Customer's access to or use of the Services if (i) Customer's account is more than sixty (60) days past due, or (ii) Customer's use of the Services results in (or is reasonably likely to result in) damage to or material degradation of the Services which interferes with Page's ability to provide access to the Services to other customers; provided that in the case of subsection (ii): (a) Page shall use reasonable good faith efforts to work with Customer to resolve or mitigate the damage or degradation in order to resolve the issue without resorting to suspension or limitation; (b) prior to any such suspension or limitation, Page shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide notice to Customer describing the nature of the damage or degradation; and (c) Page shall reinstate Customer's use of or access to the Services, as applicable, if Customer remediates the issue within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice. All provisions of this Agreement which by their nature should survive termination shall survive termination, including, without limitation, accrued payment obligations, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnity and limitations of liability. For clarity, any Services provided by Page to Customer, including any assistance in exporting the Customer Data, shall be billable at Page's standard rates then in effect.

Each party ("Indemnitor") shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the other party, its affiliates and each of its and its affiliates' employees, contractors, directors, suppliers and representatives (collectively, the "Indemnitee") from all liabilities, claims, and expenses paid or payable to an unaffiliated third party (including reasonable attorneys' fees) ("Losses"), that arise from or relate to any claim that (i) the Customer Data or Customer's use of the Services (in the case of Customer as Indemnitor), or , or (ii) the Services (in the case of Page as Indemnitor), infringe, violate, or misappropriate any third party intellectual property or proprietary right.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, excluding its conflicts of law rules, and the parties consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the state and federal courts located in the State of New York.
