roko labs' obligations
Subject to Client's compliance with this Agreement, ROKO Labs shall provide Client with the Platform, Services and Client Libraries described in this Agreement in a professional and workmanlike manner.
ROKO Labs shall provide Client with telephone and email support for Client's use of the Platform and Services during ROKO Labs' regular business hours. Client agrees that ROKO Labs is not responsible for providing support related to the Client App or Client's equipment or systems.
ROKO Labs shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the availability of the Platform and Services to send and receive data, subject to downtimes resulting from maintenance, repairs and upgrades. ROKO Labs will use commer-cially reasonable efforts to notify Client in advance of scheduled downtimes via in-Platform messages. ROKO Labs will not be liable for any failures in the Platform or Service that are related to events reasonably outside of ROKO Labs' control, technical malfunctions of Client's systems, issues arising from Client's misuse of the Platform, and outages caused by a third party system.
professional services
Client may request and ROKO Labs may agree to provide certain custom development, consulting or other professional services as mutually agreed by the parties ("Professional Services"). The terms and conditions of such Professional Services will be set forth in a separate, mutually executed written statement of work (each, a "SOW") that will be governed by the terms of this Agreement. Unless otherwise stated in a SOW, the work produced by ROKO Labs pursuant to a SOW (including the intellectual property and all other rights therein) shall be owned solely by ROKO Labs.
fees and payment
ROKO Labs offers several annual packages for Client's use of the Services. Apart from the trial period, which is provided without charge, use of the Platform and Services is subject to a monthly fee for a 12 month period. The monthly fee for each package is specified in ROKO Labs' then-posted package and pricing list. All Clients start with the basic Services package. Each package entitles Client to use the Services each month, up to the number of Monthly Active Users, Events and Storage limits specified for that package. If during a month, Client's number of Monthly Active Users, Events or Storage exceeds the limit for Client's then-current package, Client will receive a message that Client has been upgraded to the next level, and asked to authorize payment of the additional fee(s). If Client is using the trial period (no fee), then Client will also be asked to provide a valid credit or debit card for billing and payment.
If on the first of the month Client is using a paid monthly package, ROKO Labs will charge Client's method of payment on file at the beginning of the month for that month's fees. Going forward, at the start of each month, ROKO Labs will continue to charge Client's method of payment for the monthly fee for that Services package, unless and until Client's usage grows and requires an upgraded Services package. If Client's usage in a month requires an upgraded Services package, then ROKO Labs will charge Client's credit card at the beginning of the next month for (i) the additional fees (prorated) due for the overage month, and (ii) the monthly fee of the upgraded Services package for the new month.
Provided that Client's Services package is upgraded, ROKO Labs will review Client's usage for the three full calendar months immediately following the upgrade. If ROKO Labs concludes that Client's usage in each of those three months did not exceed the Monthly Active Users, Events or Storage limits for Client's prior Services package (i.e., the package from which Client was upgraded), then going forward, then ROKO Labs will move Client back to the prior Services package starting with the fourth full calendar month after the upgrade.
If the parties have entered into one or more SOWs, Client shall pay the fees for Professional Services in accordance with the applicable SOW.
ROKO Labs may change the package configuration and pricing of the Services from time to time, and add new fees and charges for certain features or to reflect a change in business or legal rules. ROKO Labs will send advance notice of such changes by email to Client's address on file. Any increase in fees would not apply until the expiration of Client's then current billing cycle, unless otherwise specifically provided in ROKO Labs' notice to Client. If Client does not agree to pay the new fees, Client may elect to terminate the Platform or Services in accordance with Section 17(a) before the price change goes into effect.
When Client begins to use a paid monthly package for the Services and enters a form of payment, Client agrees that: (i) Client will fulfill its obligations to pay the fees for the Services by the date on which payment is due; (ii) any payment information that Client provides is true and accurate; (iii) ROKO Labs is authorized to use the payment method provided; (iv) ROKO Labs has permission to retain the payment information and method, including all submitted debit and credit card information, submitted by Client; and (v) ROKO Labs is authorized to charge Client for the fees due for the Services using the Client-provided payment information and method on file for Client's account.
Client is responsible for paying all taxes and other government charges (excluding taxes on ROKO Labs' income) applicable to the amounts due to ROKO Labs. Client acknowledges and agrees that Client's purchase may be subject to foreign exchange fees or differences in prices (e.g., exchange rates) based on Client's location.
If Client fails to pay the amounts due for the Services, ROKO Labs may suspend the Services until all outstanding amounts are paid in full. Client shall be liable for the expenses and fees that ROKO Labs incurs in collecting late payments, including credit card chargeback fees, collection agency fees and attorneys' fees. Failure to pay these amounts may result in the termination of this Agreement.
confidentiality
For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Confidential Information" means non-public information that a party designates as being confidential or which, under the circumstances surrounding disclosure, reasonably ought to be treated as confidential, including without limitation, this Agreement, a party's finances and records, client lists, employ-ee lists, pricing terms, Client Data, information about the Platform, Services and Client Libraries, and business, strategic development and marketing plans. Confidential Information will not include: (a) information that was previously known, without obligation of confidentiality, by the receiving party, prior to any disclosure from the other party; (b) information that is or otherwise becomes available in the general public through no breach of this Agreement by the receiving party; (c) information that was received without restriction from any person or entity that the receiving party reasona-bly believes is not in violation of any duty of non-disclosure on the part of such person or entity; or (d) information that the receiving party developed independently of any disclosures of such information by the disclosing party. Neither party will disclose any Confidential Information to any third party; provided, however, that a party may disclose Confi-dential Information to its employees, agents and/or independent contractors to whom disclosure is reasonably required provided that such individuals and entities have agreed to keep such information confidential in the same or a substan-tially similar manner as provided for in this Agreement. Neither party will use any Confidential Information except as expressly permitted by, and as required to achieve the purposes of, this Agreement. Each party will take reasonable security precautions, at least as great as the precautions it takes to protect its own confidential information of a similar nature, to keep confidential the Confidential Information. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a party may disclose Confidential Information in accordance with a judicial or other governmental order or as may be required by applicable law; provided, however, that a party so disclosing Confidential Information (the "Disclosing Party") will give the other party (the "Protected Party") as much advance notice as reasonably possible of any such disclosure so that the Protected Party may seek a protective order or other remedy. The Disclosing Party will comply with any protective order or equivalent relating to the Confidential Information. If there is no protective order, the Disclosing Party will use its reasonable efforts to ensure that only the minimum portion of the Confidential Information necessary to comply with the law or order is disclosed. The parties agree that monetary damages for breach of confidentiality under this section will not be adequate and the non-breaching party shall be further entitled to injunctive relief.
privacy
Each party shall adhere to applicable privacy law and regulation including, but not limited to, Section 5 of the FTC Act, to the extent applicable to such party. Client will include a privacy policy on each Client App that is in accordance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. Client shall not collect any personally-identifiable information about any individual through the Client App and Client Libraries without legally sufficient notice and consent. Client shall not use the Platform, Services or Client Libraries to collect, transmit, or provide, and shall not otherwise make available to the Platform, Services and/or Client Libraries, any personally-identifiable information, including sensitive information, of any kind, unless ROKO Labs shall have expressly agreed to receive such information and then solely as necessary in connection with Client's use of the Platform, Services and Client Libraries. Provided that ROKO Labs has agreed to receive personally-identifiable information, Client would be the data controller of, and responsible for, the personally-identifiable information (if any) that is provided to, or collected by, ROKO Labs in connection with Client's use of the Platform, Services and Client Libraries. As used herein, "sensitive information" includes the following information that may be used to identify an individual, such as: (i) his or her financial account numbers or insurance plan numbers, (ii) precise information about health or medical conditions, (iii) any government-issued identifiers and (iv) includes any personally-identifiable information about a minor under the age of 13. Client shall not merge or otherwise associate personally-identifiable information with information collected through the Platform, Services or Client Libraries, unless such merger or association is conducted in accordance with Section 5 of the FTC Act.
reporting and data
Platform Reporting. The Platform maintains independent tracking of Client's use of the Platform and Services, the number of Monthly Active Users and Events, the amount of Storage used, and use of the Client Libraries by Client's users. These metrics are the basis for all Platform reporting, as well as the input for the various fee, cost, and other calculations for applicable fee. Client agrees that the metrics reported by the Platform are definitive for the purpose of determining Client's use of the Services.
Client Data. Client shall retain ownership of the Client Data, and ROKO Labs shall retain ownership of the ROKO Labs Data.

Client acknowledges that the Platform, Services, Client Libraries (but not Client Data), ROKO Labs Data, and Aggregated Data, and all intellectual property and proprietary rights in and to the foregoing, are the sole and exclusive property of ROKO Labs and its licensors. Each party retains all other rights not expressly granted in this Agreement.

Any idea, proposal, suggestion or other material that Client provides to ROKO Labs regarding the Platform, Services and Client Libraries ("Feedback") becomes ROKO Labs' property. Client acknowledges and agrees that any such Feedback is provided without compensation or restriction, and ROKO Labs is not under any obligation to use the Feedback.

The indemnified party shall promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim for which the indemnified party is seeking indemnification; it being understood, however, that failure to provide such notice promptly shall not relieve the indemnifying party of its indemnification obligations hereunder, except to the extent that the indemnifying party has been materially prejudiced by such delay.
