Except as may be otherwise agreed to by the parties in writing (including through an Order), MidFunnel’s then-current pricing applicable for the Service will apply to your use of the Service (including any renewal Subscription Terms) regardless of any discounted pricing in a prior Order or promotional offers previously extended to Customer.

MidFunnel may participate in a Claim with its own counsel at its own expense. Customer will pay, on the MidFunnel Party’s behalf, all damages awarded in a final judgment or settlement of such Claims (including reasonable attorney’s fees, interest, and penalties to the extent included therein).
  • Indemnification by MidFunnel: MidFunnel will defend or at its option settle any Claims against Customer, its Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employers, agents, successors, and assigns (collectively “Customer Parties”) alleging that the authorized use of the Service infringes any U.S. patent, copyright, or trade secret right of a third party (“Infringement Claim”) and MidFunnel will pay any final judgments awarded in any such Infringement Claim defended by MidFunnel or settlements entered into by MidFunnel. The applicable Customer Party will provide MidFunnel with: (a) reasonable written notice of the Infringement Claim (provided that any delay in providing notice will not relieve MidFunnel of its indemnity obligations under this Agreement unless, and only to the extent, MidFunnel was prejudiced by the delay); (b) the exclusive right to control and direct the investigation, defense, and settlement of the Infringement Claim (provided that no settlement admitting liability on the part of the Customer Party may be made without the express written consent of the Customer Party); and (c) reasonable assistance and cooperation at MidFunnel’s sole cost and expense. Customer may participate in a claim with its own counsel at its own expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, MidFunnel will have no obligation under this Section for Infringement Claims arising from: (a) combination of the Service with other software, hardware, products, or technology not provided by MidFunnel; (b) any modification of the Service, in whole or in part, by anyone other than MidFunnel; (c) any unauthorized use of the Service; or (d) use by Customer or its Users of any specified release of the Service after MidFunnel notifies Customer that continued use may subject Customer to an Infringement Claim, provided MidFunnel provides Customer with a replacement release. If any portion of the Service becomes, or in MidFunnel’s reasonable opinion is likely to become, subject to an Infringement Claim, then MidFunnel may at its sole option and expense: (a) procure for Customer the right to continue using the Service; (b) replace the Service with a non-infringing equivalent; or (c) in the event that neither of the foregoing is reasonably practicable, terminate this Agreement and the licenses granted herein. THIS SECTION 12.2 STATES THE ENTIRE LIABILITY AND OBLIGATION OF MIDFUNNEL, AND THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY OF CUSTOMER, WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTUAL OR ALLEGED INFRINGEMENT OF ANY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS BY THE SERVICE.

Confidentiality

  • Definition: “Confidential Information” means information disclosed to the receiving party under this Agreement that is designated by the disclosing party as proprietary or confidential or that should be reasonably understood to be proprietary or confidential due to its nature and the circumstances of its disclosure. MidFunnel’s Confidential Information includes the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Documentation, the MidFunnel Technology, Templates, Feedback, Usage Data, and any technical or performance information about the Service.
  • Obligations: As the receiving party, each party will (a) hold Confidential Information in confidence and not disclose it to third parties except as permitted in this Agreement and (b) only use Confidential Information to fulfill its obligations and exercise its rights in this Agreement. The receiving party may disclose Confidential Information to its employees, agents, (sub)contractors, and other representatives (“Representatives”) having a legitimate need to know such Confidential Information in order to perform or evaluate the receiving party’s obligations under this Agreement; provided that (a) the receiving party will remain liable for the acts and omissions of such Representatives with respect to the Confidential Information of the disclosing party, and (b) such Representatives are bound by confidentiality obligations or professional obligations prohibiting the unauthorized disclosure or use of Confidential Information that are at least as protective as the terms of this Section 13. Nothing in this Agreement prohibits the receiving party from making disclosures of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information, including disclosures of Customer Data, if required by Law, subpoena, or court order; provided (if permitted by Law) the receiving party notifies the disclosing party in writing prior to any such disclosure, provides the disclosing party with an opportunity to obtain, and reasonably cooperates in any effort by the disclosing party to obtain, a protective order or confidential treatment of the Confidential Information to be disclosed. For the avoidance of doubt, Customer and its Users may not copy, modify, distribute, reproduce, create derivative works of, use, or otherwise exploit the Templates except on or through the Service (and not separate and apart therefrom).
  • Exclusions: The confidentiality obligations set forth in this Section 13 do not apply to information that the receiving party can document (a) is or becomes public knowledge through no fault of the receiving party, (b) it rightfully knew or possessed prior to receipt from the disclosing party under this Agreement without an obligation to maintain its confidentiality, (c) it rightfully received from a third party without an obligation to keep such information confidential, or (d) it independently developed without use of or reference to the disclosing party’s Confidential Information.
  • Remedies: The receiving party agrees that any breach or threatened breach of this Section 13 may cause substantial, irreparable harm to the disclosing party for which damages would be an inadequate remedy and, as such, the disclosing party may seek equitable relief, in addition to other remedies available at law or in equity, for any breach or threatened breach of this Section 13 without the necessity of proving actual damages or posting any bond.

Trials and Betas

If Customer or any of its Users receives access to the Service or any features or functionality relating thereto on a free or trial basis or as an alpha, beta or early access offering (“Trials and Betas”), any access to or use of the Trials and Betas by Customer or its Users is permitted only for Customer’s internal evaluation and testing purposes during the period designated by MidFunnel (not to exceed thirty (30) days unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties in writing, including by way of an Order). These Trials and Betas will be considered part of the Service, and all provisions of this Agreement relating to the Service will apply to these Trials and Betas as well. Trials and Betas are optional, and either party may terminate Trials and Betas at any time for any reason (except to the extent Customer is to pay MidFunnel any fees for Customer’s access to or use of the Trials and Betas, in which case, each party’s termination rights will be governed by and subject to Section 8.1). Notwithstanding Section 6.1, access to or use of Trials and Betas will not renew for an additional Subscription Term and will automatically terminate upon the expiration of the then-current Subscription Term for such Trials and Betas, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the parties. Trials and Betas may be inoperable, incomplete, or include features that MidFunnel may never release, and their features and performance information are deemed to be MidFunnel’s Confidential Information. MidFunnel may suspend Customer’s and its Users’ access to the Trials and Betas at any time (except to the extent Customer is to pay MidFunnel any fees for Customer’s access to or use of the Trials and Betas, in which case, MidFunnel’s right to suspend access to the Trials and Betas will be governed by and subject to Section 4). Customer’s and its User’s use of Trials and Betas is at their own risk. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN THIS AGREEMENT, MIDFUNNEL PROVIDES NO WARRANTY, INDEMNITY, OR SUPPORT FOR TRIALS AND BETAS AND ITS LIABILITY FOR TRIALS AND BETAS WILL NOT EXCEED $50.00 (USD).

Publicity

Neither party may make any public announcement relating to this Agreement except with the other party’s prior written consent or as required by Laws. MidFunnel may reference Customer’s name and include Customer’s trademarks, logos, and other branding elements (“Marketing Materials”) in MidFunnel’s customer lists, promotional materials, and in connection with its marketing, advertising, promotional, or sales practices or activities; provided that Customer may require that MidFunnel cease further use of Marketing Materials upon written notice to MidFunnel (except that MidFunnel will not be obligated to cease its use of any tangible materials containing, embodying, or including Marketing Materials that are in existence at the time of MidFunnel’s receipt of such notice from Customer).

Modifications

MidFunnel may modify this Agreement from time to time with notice to Customer. Modifications take effect at Customer’s next Subscription Term or Order unless MidFunnel indicates an earlier effective date. If MidFunnel requires modifications with an earlier effective date and Customer objects, Customer’s exclusive remedy is to terminate this Agreement with notice to MidFunnel, in which case MidFunnel will provide Customer a refund of any pre-paid Service fees for the terminated portion of the current Subscription Term. To exercise this termination right, Customer must notify MidFunnel of its objections within thirty (30) days after MidFunnel’s notice of the modified Agreement. Once the modified Agreement takes effect, Customer’s continued use of the Service constitutes its acceptance of the modifications. MidFunnel may require Customer to click to accept the modified Agreement.

General Terms

Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section 17.1 will be null and void and of no effect. This Agreement will bind and inure to the benefit of each party’s permitted successors and assigns. MidFunnel may use subcontractors and permit them to exercise MidFunnel’s rights and to perform MidFunnel’s obligations on behalf of MidFunnel, but MidFunnel remains responsible for their compliance with this Agreement.

  • Entire Agreement: This Agreement (which includes all Orders and, if applicable, the DPA) is the parties’ entire agreement regarding its subject matter and supersedes any prior or contemporaneous agreements regarding its subject matter. In this Agreement, headings are for convenience only, and “including” and similar terms are to be construed without limitation. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (including electronic copies and PDFs), each of which is deemed an original and which together form one and the same agreement. The terms in any Customer purchase order, ordering document, or business form will not amend or modify this Agreement and are expressly rejected by MidFunnel; any of these Customer documents are for administrative purposes only and have no legal effect.
  • Waivers and Severability: Waivers must be signed by the waiving party’s authorized representative and cannot be implied from conduct. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, it will be limited to the minimum extent necessary so the rest of this Agreement remains in effect. The failure to require performance of any provision will not affect MidFunnel’s right to require performance at any other time after that, nor will a waiver by MidFunnel of any breach of any provision of this Agreement be a waiver of any subsequent breach or a waiver of the provision itself.
  • Force Majeure: MidFunnel is not liable for any delay or failure to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement due to events beyond its reasonable control, such as a strike, blockade, war, pandemic, act of terrorism, riot, Internet or utility failures, refusal of government license, or natural disaster (each a “Force Majeure Event”).
  • Export: Customer agrees to comply with all relevant U.S. and foreign export and import Laws in using the Service. Customer: (a) represents and warrants that it is not listed on any U.S. government list of prohibited or restricted parties or located in (or a national of) a country that is subject to a U.S. government embargo or that has been designated by the U.S. government as a “terrorist supporting” country; (b) agrees not to access or use the Service in violation of any U.S. export embargo, prohibition or restriction; and (c) will not submit to the Service any information controlled under the U.S. International Traffic in Arms Regulations.
  • Government End-Users: Elements of the Service are commercial computer software. If the user or licensee of the Service is an agency, department, or other entity of the United States Government, the use, duplication, reproduction, release, modification, disclosure, or transfer of the Service or any related documentation of any kind, including technical data and manuals, is restricted by the terms of this Agreement in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation 12.212 for civilian purposes and Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement 227.7202 for military purposes.
