Cyber Compass Responsibilities

Provision of Services. Cyber Compass makes the Authorized Services available to Customer and Agent pursuant to this Agreement, including applicable support for the Authorized Services to Customer and Agent. Cyber Compass will use commercially reasonable efforts to make the online Authorized Services available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, except for: (i) planned downtime (of which Cyber Compass shall give advance electronic notice), and (ii) any unavailability caused by circumstances beyond Cyber Compass’ reasonable control, including, for example, an act of God, act of government, flood, fire, earthquake, civil unrest, act of terror, strike or other labor problem (other than one involving Cyber Compass employees), Internet service provider failure or delay, Non-Cyber Compass Application, denial of service attack or Customer, Agent or User connectivity issues. Cyber Compass will provide the Authorized Services in accordance with laws and government regulations applicable to Cyber Compass’ provision of its Authorized Services to its Customers and Agents generally (i.e., without regard for Customer’s or Agent’s particular use of the Services), and subject to Customer’s or Agent’s use of the Authorized Services in accordance with this Agreement.

Protection of Customer Data. Cyber Compass will maintain appropriate administrative, physical, and technical safeguards for protection of the security, confidentiality and integrity of Customer Data. Those safeguards will include, but will not be limited to, measures designed to prevent unauthorized access to or disclosure of Customer Data (other than by Customer, Agent or Users).

Personnel. Cyber Compass will be responsible for the performance of its workforce and their compliance with Cyber Compass’ obligations under this Agreement, except as otherwise specified in this Agreement.

Use of Authorized Services

Subscriptions. Unless otherwise provided in the order process Authorized Services and access to Authorized Services are purchased as subscriptions for the term stated in the Order. Customer agrees that its purchases are not contingent on the delivery of any future features or functionality of Authorized Services.

Usage Limits. Authorized Services are subject to usage limits specified in Orders. If Customer exceeds a contractual usage limit, Cyber Compass or Agent may work with Customer to seek to reduce Customer’s usage so that it conforms to that limit. If, notwithstanding Cyber Compass efforts, Customer is unable or unwilling to abide by a contractual usage limit, Customer will execute an Order for additional quantities of the Authorized Services promptly upon Cyber Compass’ or Agent’s request, and/or pay any invoice for excess usage in accordance with the subscription or invoiced terms.

Fees and Payment

To purchase any Cyber Compass SOLUTION, you must agree to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement and provide a credit card or other payment method made available by our payment services provider. CyberCompass, LLC uses a third-party service to accept payments and does not retain any credit card or other payment information in our databases. Payment is due immediately upon online order placement.  Payment terms are defined for quoted and invoiced orders.

FREE TRIAL – With regard to any permitted access to and use of the SOLUTION or any portion of the SOLUTION by Organization (Customer) related to a free trial, evaluation, license key extension or other non-production use authorized by CyberCompass (the “Free Use”), CyberCompass agrees to make such SOLUTION available to Customer for a term to expire on the earlier of: (a) the end of the free trial period for which you registered to use the SOLUTION; or (b) the start date of any Subscriptions for such SOLUTION purchased by Customer from CyberCompass or Agent (the “Free Use Period”).  Additional terms and conditions governing such Free Use may be imposed by CyberCompass, and any such additional terms and conditions are incorporated into this Agreement by reference and are legally binding. ANY DATA THAT CUSTOMER ENTERS INTO THE SOLUTION, AND ANY PERMITTED CUSTOMIZATIONS MADE TO THE SOLUTION BY OR FOR CUSTOMER, DURING THE FREE USE PERIOD WILL BE PERMANENTLY LOST UNLESS (a) CUSTOMER PURCHASES A SUBSCRIPTION TO THE SAME PRODUCTS OR SERVICES AS THOSE COVERED BY THE FREE USE OR (b) EXPORTS SUCH DATA BEFORE THE END OF THE FREE USE PERIOD.  CUSTOMER CANNOT TRANSFER DATA ENTERED OR CUSTOMIZATIONS MADE DURING THE FREE USE PERIOD TO A PRODUCT OR SERVICE THAT WOULD BE A DOWNGRADE FROM THAT USED DURING THE FREE USE PERIOD AND, THEREFORE, IF CUSTOMER PURCHASES A PRODUCT OR SERVICE THAT WOULD BE A DOWNGRADE CUSTOMER MAY HAVE TO EXPORT ITS DATA BEFORE THE END OF THE FREE USE PERIOD OR IT WILL BE PERMANENTLY LOST. NOTWITHSTANDING LIMITED WARRANTIES AND LEGAL DISCLAIMERS, DURING THE FREE USE PERIOD THE SOLUTIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS-IS” WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY.

Cancelling Your Cyber Compass Subscription Account – Your Cyber Compass Subscription Account will continue in effect unless and until you cancel your Cyber Compass Subscription Account, or we terminate it. You must cancel your Cyber Compass Subscription Account before it renews each month or year in order to avoid billing of the next month’s or year’s fees to your credit card or via an invoice. Cyber Compass will bill the monthly or yearly fees associated with your Cyber Compass Subscription Account plus any applicable tax to the payment method you provide to us during registration.

Cyber Compass Subscription Accounts are prepaid and are non-refundable. Cyber Compass DOES NOT PROVIDE REFUNDS OR CREDITS FOR ANY PARTIAL MONTHS OR YEARS. You may cancel your Cyber Compass Subscription Account at any time, and cancellation will be effective immediately. Should you elect to cancel your Cyber Compass Subscription Account, please note that you will not be issued a refund for the most recently (or any previously) charged monthly or annual fees.

Overdue Charges; Suspension of Service – If any fees are not received from Customer when due, then at CyberCompass’ discretion, such unpaid fees may accrue interest at the rate of 1.5% of the outstanding balance per month, or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower, from the date such payment was due until the date paid.  If any amount owing by Customer pursuant to this Agreement is thirty (30) or more days overdue, CyberCompass may, without limiting CyberCompass’ other rights and remedies, suspend Customer’s access to the SOLUTION and/or provision of the SOLUTION until such amounts are paid in full.  For the avoidance of doubt, CyberCompass will not exercise its rights under this Section 5(c) if the applicable charges are under reasonable and good-faith dispute and Customer is cooperating diligently to resolve the dispute. 

Taxes – Unless otherwise stated, CyberCompass’ fees do not include any taxes, levies, duties or similar governmental assessments of any nature, including value-added, sales, use or withholding taxes, assessable by any local, state, provincial, federal or foreign jurisdiction (collectively, “Taxes”). Except for Taxes assessable against CyberCompass based on CyberCompass’ income, Customer is responsible for paying all Taxes associated with Customer’s purchases hereunder. If CyberCompass or Agent has the legal obligation to pay or collect Taxes for which Customer is responsible under this paragraph, the appropriate amount shall be invoiced to and paid by Customer in accordance with Section 4(b) above, unless Customer provides CyberCompass or Agent with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority.

Audit. Customer agrees to maintain complete and accurate records with respect to matters necessary to ensure Customer’s compliance with this Agreement. CyberCompass or Agent will have the right, at its own expense and upon reasonable prior notice, to inspect and audit Customer’s records with respect to matters covered by this Agreement (the “Audit”).  If such Audit reveals that Customer has underpaid CyberCompass with respect to any amounts due and payable during the period to which the Audit relates, Customer shall promptly pay such amounts as are necessary to rectify such underpayment, together with interest in accordance with this agreement or billing documents.  Such inspection and audit rights shall extend throughout the term of this Agreement and for a period of one year thereafter.

Termination

Either Customer, Agent or CyberCompass, LLC may terminate this Agreement at any time with 30 days written notice. Customer may cancel or terminate their Cyber Compass Subscription Account by methods described above in ‘Cancelling Your Cyber Compass Subscription Account’. CyberCompass, LLC or Agent may terminate this agreement immediately, if Customer fails to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and/or the terms of the Agreement under which rights to license the SOLUTION were obtained by Customer. CyberCompass, LLC or Agent may prevent Customer from accessing the SOLUTION by preventing login to the Cyber Compass website.

Effect of Termination. Termination of this Agreement shall not release the Parties from any liability that, at the time of termination, has already accrued or that thereafter may accrue with respect to any act or omission before termination, or from any obligation that is expressly stated in this Agreement to survive termination.  Upon any termination of this Agreement, each Party shall (i) immediately discontinue all access to and use of the other Party’s Confidential Information, including, for purposes of Customer, all access to and use of the Authorized Services; (ii) delete the other Party’s Confidential Information from its computer storage or any other media, including online and off-line libraries; (iii) return to the other Party or, at the other Party’s option, destroy, all copies of such other Party’s Confidential Information then in its possession; and (iv) promptly pay all amounts due and remaining payable hereunder.
