Customer Responsibilities.
1. General.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Customer is responsible for all acts and omissions of Users, and any act or omission by a User that would constitute a breach of this Agreement if taken by Customer will be deemed a breach of this Agreement by Customer. Customer shall use reasonable efforts to make all Users aware of this Agreement’s provisions as applicable to such User’s use of the Services, and shall cause Users to comply with such provisions.
2. Additional Terms. Use of the Software Services by Users is subject to additional terms and conditions that apply to Users individually (“Terms of Use”), and such Terms of Use will not in any way limit Customer’s obligations or liabilities in this Section 3 or elsewhere in this Agreement. Use of the Software Services by Customer’s Authorized Users is subject to Terms of Use between Provider and such Authorized Users, and such Terms of Use are viewable and available via the Authorized User facing portions of the Software Services, and may be provided to Customer upon request.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Provider shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to make the Software Services available to Customer at all times, subject to (i) planned unavailability for maintenance or due to a Service Suspension, and (ii) unavailability due to events or circumstances beyond Provider’s reasonable control.

Service interruptions for maintenance and system upgrades will be scheduled, to the extent reasonably practicable, to minimize interference with Customer’s daytime business activities. For unscheduled service interruptions attributable to causes within Provider’s reasonable control, as Provider’s sole obligation and Customer’s exclusive remedy, Provider shall make all commercially reasonable efforts to restore the Software Services.
2. Support Services. The access rights granted hereunder entitle Customer to the following Support Services described in this Section. Customer will receive a dedicated Client Success Manager (“CSM”) that will serve the Customer as the main point of contact. The CSM will be available Monday – Friday from 9:00 AM ET through 5:00 PM ET, excluding federal and other holidays. CSM response time goal is to provide a response within 24 hours of customer support request. Customer may request live support via phone or video conference and, where Provider determines in its sole discretion that live support is appropriate, Provider will coordinate with Customer to schedule live support at a mutually agreeable time. Any trouble shooting/diligence request can also be brought to the CSM, and once evaluated, CSM will submit service ticket to Provider’s Development Team.
3. Implementation Services. Customer may request additional support in the form of Implementation Services in writing. Provider may, at its sole discretion, provide Implementation Services to Customer on a time and materials basis, or as otherwise provided in an Order Form.

Provider will preserve Customer Data stored by the Software Services for a period of up to 90 days (the “Transition Period”), and during that Transition Period will provide Customer commercially reasonable assistance in accessing, downloading or receiving copies of the Customer Data. If the applicable Order Form is terminated by Provider as a result of Customer’s material breach, the length of the Transition Period shall be reduced to 15 days.
Fees and Payment.

Customer shall make all payments hereunder in US dollars on or before the due date set forth in the Order Form. Unless otherwise provided in an Order Form, all Fees will be due and paid to Provider within 15 days of the date that they become due.

Customer is responsible for all sales, use, and excise taxes, and any other similar taxes, duties, and charges of any kind imposed by any federal, state, or local governmental or regulatory authority on any amounts payable by Customer hereunder, other than any taxes imposed on Provider’s income.
3. Payment Method. Where an Order Form includes Software Services, Customer may provide a current, valid, accepted method of payment, as may be updated from time to time and which may include payment through a third party (a “Payment Method”). Customer hereby grants Provider the permission to use Customer’s Payment Method for completion of any payments associated with the Software Services, and to provide Customer’s Payment Method to a third-party for completion of any payments associated with the Software Services as may be needed. Customer agrees that Provider and its third-party payment processors may use Customer’s Payment Method both for any current Software Services, as well as for any subsequent addition or renewal term of any Software Services. The fees and any other charges Customer may incur in connection with Customer’s use of the Software Services, such as taxes and possible transaction fees, will be charged to Customer’s Payment Method on the date(s) indicated on the Order Form. If Customer’s Payment Method is provided through a third party, additional details related to Customer’s Payment Method and the payment of fees may be available from the applicable third party. Customer authorizes Provider to charge any Payment Method associated with Customer’s account. Customer can update Customer’s Payment Methods by contacting Provider. Following any update to Customer’s Payment Methods, Customer authorizes Provider to continue to charge any newly added or modified Payment Methods.
Confidential Information.

The receiving Party shall not disclose the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information to any person or entity, except to the receiving Party’s employees who have a need to know the Confidential Information for the receiving Party to exercise its rights or perform its obligations hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party may disclose Confidential Information to the limited extent required (i) in order to comply with the order of a court or other governmental body, or as otherwise necessary to comply with applicable law, provided that the Party making the disclosure pursuant to the order shall first have given written notice to the other Party and made a reasonable effort to obtain a protective order; or (ii) to establish a Party’s rights under this Agreement, including to make required court filings. On the expiration or termination of the Agreement, the receiving Party shall promptly return to the disclosing Party all copies, whether in written, electronic, or other form or media, of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, or destroy all such copies and certify in writing to the disclosing Party that such Confidential Information has been destroyed. Each Party’s obligations of non-disclosure with regard to Confidential Information are effective as of the Effective Date and will expire five years from the date first disclosed to the receiving Party; provided, however, with respect to any Confidential Information that constitutes a trade secret (as determined under applicable law), such obligations of non-disclosure will survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement for as long as such Confidential Information remains subject to trade secret protection under applicable law.
