1. INTRODUCTION

This Agreement sets out the general terms and conditions under which Combinely agrees to provide, and Customer and End User agree to receive and use, the Services. By accessing or using the Services, Customer and End User acknowledge that they have read, understand, and agree to be bound by this Agreement, Combinely's Privacy Policy, which is hereby incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement. Those who do not agree with the terms of this Agreement should not access or use the Services.

1.1 Authority. The individual agreeing to this Agreement represents to Combinely that they have the authority to bind Customer and any Affiliates to this Agreement.

1.3 Relationship Between Customer and End User. The administrator of Customer's Account can modify or re-assign roles of End Users and otherwise exercise the rights granted to the Customer pursuant to this Agreement. If a Customer elects to replace the administrator of its Customer Account, such administrator must agree to take any actions reasonably necessary and requested by Combinely or Customer to facilitate such transfer of authority. When utilizing the Services under a Customer Account, End Users may submit Customer Data in and to the Services, such as messages, conversations or files, and Customer may provide Combinely with instructions on what to do with it.

2. USE AND ACCESS TO THE SERVICES

2.1 Accessing the Services. Access to the Services may be procured via an Order Form entered into by and between Customer and Combinely, or Customer may procure the Services (including purchasing additional End User subscriptions) through Combinely's websites and Customer Settings. Customer must purchase a subscription for each End User who accesses or uses the Services.

2.2 Customer's Responsibilities Regarding End Users. Customer is responsible for the conduct of its End Users and for ensuring that End Users abide by the terms of this Agreement at all times in connection with their use of the Services. It is Customer's responsibility to (i) inform End Users of any relevant Combinely policies, practices and settings that Customer elects to enforce related to its End Users' use of the Services; (ii) give all notices to, and obtain any rights, permissions or consents from its End Users that are necessary for Customer's lawful use of the Services and the Processing of Customer Data by or on behalf of Combinely in connection with Customer's use of the Services; and (iii) respond to and resolve any dispute between Customer and an End User related to or based on Customer Data and/or Customer's Processing of that Customer Data in connection with Customer's use of the Services.

2.3 Login Credentials. Customer and End User are responsible for all login credentials, including usernames and passwords, and Combinely shall not be liable for any damages or losses that may occur as a result of Customer's failure, or the failure of End Users, to maintain the confidentiality of their login credentials. End Users are not permitted to share or use the same login credentials to the Services. Combinely reserves the right to refuse registration of or cancel passwords it deems inappropriate. Customer is responsible for notifying Combinely at support@combinely.ai if it becomes aware of any unauthorized use of or access to its Customer Account or any End User Account.

2.4 Acceptable Use. In addition to complying with the other terms set forth in this Agreement, Customer and End User agree to (i) use the Services in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.

2.5 Export Compliance. Customer and End User may not remove or export from the United States or allow the export or re-export of the Services, Software or anything related thereto, or any direct product thereof in violation of any restrictions, laws or regulations of the United States Department of Commerce, the United States Department of Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control, or any other United States or foreign agency or authority. Customer represents that neither it nor any of its End Users are named on any U.S. government denied-party list.

2.6 Equipment. Customer shall be responsible for obtaining, maintaining and securing any Equipment used to access the Services.

2.7 Support and Maintenance. The Services may be temporarily unavailable for scheduled maintenance or for unscheduled emergency maintenance, either by Combinely or by third party providers, or because of other causes beyond Combinely's reasonable control, but Combinely shall use reasonable efforts to provide advance written notice of any scheduled service disruption. Combinely may access Customer Accounts or End User Accounts in order to respond to and resolve support requests.

3. CONFIDENTIALITY

3.1 Protection of Confidential Information. The Receiving Party agrees (i) to protect the confidentiality of Confidential Information using at least the same degree of care and discretion as it uses with its own Confidential Information, but in no event less than a reasonable degree of care; and (ii) not to disclose (except in performance of the Services or as otherwise permitted by this Agreement) to any third person any such Confidential Information without the express prior written consent of the Disclosing Party.

3.2 Compelled Disclosure. The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to the extent legally required in connection with any legal or regulatory proceeding, or where Combinely is the Receiving Party, in accordance with Combinely's Privacy Policy; provided, however, that in such event the Receiving Party will, when permitted by law, provide advance notice to the Disclosing Party.

3.3 Equitable Relief. The Receiving Party acknowledges that disclosure of Confidential Information would cause substantial harm for which damages alone would not be a sufficient remedy, and therefore that upon any such disclosure by the Receiving Party the Disclosing Party may be entitled to appropriate equitable relief in addition to whatever other remedies it might have at law.

4. DATA PROTECTION, USAGE AND FEEDBACK

4.1 Data Protection. Combinely shall implement and maintain technical, organizational, and physical measures designed to protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of Customer Data in Combinely's possession, custody or control.
