(i) each Authorized User has a separate user account and only one Authorized User has access to each account;

Including with respect to Section 13, Snowfire reserves the right at any time to modify, suspend, or discontinue the Product (or any portion thereof) with or without notice, and Snowfire shall not be liable to Customer or any third party for any such modification or discontinuance.
Customer acknowledges and agrees that the Product may include features that allow Snowfire to monitor use of the Product to confirm that such use complies with this Agreement. Such features may further permit Snowfire to disable use of the Product remotely. If Snowfire determines, in its sole discretion, that Customer's use of the Product imposes an unreasonable or disproportionately high load or burden on the Product or Snowfire's infrastructure, systems or resources, Snowfire may take reasonable actions to protect the integrity and performance of the Product or its infrastructure, systems or resources, including temporarily limiting, suspending or throttling Customer's access to the Product or certain features thereof. Snowfire will make a reasonable effort to notify Customer (email being sufficient) prior to taking such actions and will work in good faith to resolve the underlying issue.

In the event Customer fails to provide the Customer Technical Specifications, Customer will reimburse Snowfire for additional costs incurred due to such failure.
In addition to this Agreement and the End User License Agreement, the Snowfire Privacy Policy, available at https://www.snowfire.ai/resources/privacy-policy, which may be amended from time to time, (the "Privacy Policy") applies to how Snowfire may process personal information (including that of Customer's Authorized Users) provided as part of the Product. Customer acknowledges and agrees that by accessing or using the Product, Snowfire may receive certain information about Customer and/or Authorized Users, as applicable, including personal information, as set forth in the Privacy Policy, and Snowfire may collect, use, disclose, store, share, and process such personal information in accordance with such Privacy Policy.
Each party shall comply with the Data Processing Agreement available at trust.snowfire.ai, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Snowfire represents and warrants that it will provide the Services to Customer in accordance with the Service Level Agreement available at trust.snowfire.ai, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Customer acknowledges and agrees that the technical processing and transmission of Data associated with the Product, may require:
(i) transmissions over various networks and across borders; and
(ii) modifications to conform, connect, and adapt to technical requirements of networks or devices.
The Product provided to Customer hereunder or products and services available to Customer through the Product, including any Output (as defined below), are licensed, not sold. Including as further set forth in Section 4(d), Customer acknowledges and agrees that, as between Customer and Snowfire, Snowfire and its licensors owns all rights, title, and interest (including all intellectual property rights) in and to the Product and all data, content, and other materials within the Product, excluding any Customer Data. Snowfire retains and reserves all rights not expressly granted in this Agreement. The foregoing shall include all rights of patent, copyright, trade secret and other proprietary rights in all technology, know-how, software, processes, efforts and methods, forms, procedures, data formats, data gathering and retrieval systems and methods, program names, designs and manuals, templates, forms and other proprietary or copyrighted material supplied by Snowfire or prepared by or for Snowfire prior to or independently of this Agreement or a Statement of Work.
Customer may not use "Snowfire" or any of Snowfire's names, brands, trademarks, service marks or logos that Snowfire makes available on or through the Product ("Marks"). Snowfire claims trademark protection over all such Marks, and Customer will not use the Marks except as expressly authorized herein. Customer will not remove or alter the Marks or any proprietary notices on the Product. Customer may not include the Marks in or as part of any registered corporate name, any other logo, or service or product name. Customer may not create any derivative works of the Marks or use the Marks in a manner that creates or reasonably implies an inaccurate sense of endorsement, sponsorship, or association with Snowfire. Customer will not otherwise use business names or logos in a manner that can mislead, confuse, or deceive any third party. All use of the Marks and all goodwill arising out of such use will inure to Snowfire's benefit.
Customer shall provide Customer Data and certain other text, content, data and information to the Product ("Input") and receive an output from the Product based on the Customer Data ("Output"). Excluding any Customer Data, Snowfire shall own all right, interest and title in and to the Input and Output. Customer is responsible for Customer Data, including ensuring that it does not violate any applicable law or this Agreement, including any privacy, likeness, or other intellectual property right. Including as otherwise set forth herein, Customer represents and warrants that Customer has all rights, licenses, consents, and permissions needed to provide Customer Data to the Product. All right, title, and interest in and to the Customer Data and all intellectual property embodied therein or related thereto shall be and shall remain the sole and exclusive property of Customer. Due to the nature of the Product and artificial intelligence generally, Output may not be unique and other users may receive similar output from the Product. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 4(d) shall limit any rights afforded in Section 4(e).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Snowfire shall have the right to collect and analyze data and other information relating to the provision, use and performance of various aspects of the Product and related systems and technologies (including, without limitation, information concerning Customer Data and Outputs and data derived therefrom) ("Aggregated Data"), and Snowfire will be free (during and after the Term) to: use Aggregated Data to improve and enhance the Product and for other development, diagnostic and corrective purposes in connection with the Product and other Snowfire products and services; and (ii) disclose Aggregated Data in connection with Snowfire's business, products and services.

All payments will be made in United States dollars and are non-refundable and non-cancelable, except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Agreement.

(i) acknowledges and agrees that Snowfire may require Customer to make payment through a third-party merchant of record;
(ii) acknowledges and agrees that Snowfire will not be responsible for any payments, fees or penalties as a result of Customer's failure to provide up-to-date and accurate information to any such merchant of record; and
(iii) acknowledges and authorizes Snowfire and its merchant of record to charge all Fees to Customer's chosen payment method.
Including as further set forth in Section 8(a), payments made through the merchant of record shall be subject to the merchant of record's terms of service and privacy policy.
If Customer fails to pay any past due invoice, Snowfire may charge interest on all past due invoices at a rate of 2.5% per month or the highest rate allowed by applicable law, whichever is lower.
All Fees exclude any and all taxes and similar fees now in force, enacted or imposed in the future on the transaction, delivery of the Product or Professional Services, including any sales, use or value added taxes, goods and services tax, consumption tax, customs duties or similar charges (collectively, "Taxes"), but excluding withholding taxes and taxes solely based on Snowfire's net income, and Customer shall be responsible for payment of all such Taxes, and any related penalties and interest arising from the payment of such amounts.
"Confidential Information" shall mean all information identified in good faith by either party as being confidential or proprietary or information that, under the circumstances, a reasonable person would assume to be confidential or proprietary. Confidential Information shall include trade secrets, know-how, research, product plans, products, services, customers, customer lists, markets, software, developments, processes, formulas, technology, designs, drawings, engineering, blueprints, hardware configuration information, marketing, finances, or other business information provided by either party. Confidential Information may include third party information as to which the disclosing party has an obligation of confidentiality. All Customer Data shall be considered the Confidential Information of Customer.
Confidential Information shall not include information that:
(i) can be demonstrated to have been publicly known at the time of the disclosing party's disclosure of such Confidential Information to the receiving party;
(ii) becomes part of the public domain or publicly known, by publication or otherwise, not due to any unauthorized act or omission by the receiving party;
(iii) can be demonstrated to have been independently developed or acquired by the receiving party without reference to or reliance upon such Confidential Information;
(iv) is provided to the receiving party by a third party who is under no obligation to the disclosing party to keep the information confidential; or
(v) is required to be publicly disclosed by law, provided, however, that the receiving party shall take reasonable actions to minimize such disclosure and promptly notify the disclosing party, to the extent permitted by law, so that the disclosing party may take lawful actions to avoid or minimize such disclosure.
Each party agrees that it will use the Confidential Information provided by the other party only as necessary to exercise its rights and discharge its obligations under this Agreement and for no other purpose without the prior written consent of the disclosing party. To maintain in confidence the Confidential Information of the disclosing party, the receiving party shall use the same degree of care as it uses to protect the confidentiality of its own Confidential Information of like nature, but no less than a reasonable degree of care.
Neither party shall disclose to a third-party Confidential Information of the other party except to receiving party's own employees, contractors, agents, directors, and members (collectively, "Representatives") having a need to know in connection with the receiving party's exercise of its rights or performance of its obligations hereunder, provided that:
(i) all such Representatives are bound by similar nondisclosure restrictions as set forth herein; and
(ii) the receiving party shall be liable for any breach of this Agreement by its Representatives as if committed by the receiving party itself.
The Product may contain links or connections to or advertisements for other websites ("Third Party Sites") owned, hosted or licensed by a third party (each, a "Third Party Provider"), including its merchant of record. Snowfire does not endorse, sanction or verify the accuracy or ownership of the information contained in/on any Third Party Site or any products or services advertised on Third Party Sites. If Customer decides to leave the Product and navigate to Third Party Sites or install any software or download content from any such Third Party Sites, Customer does so at Customer's own risk. Once Customer accesses a Third Party Site through a link in the Product, Customer may no longer be protected by this Agreement and Customer may be subject to the terms and conditions or privacy policy of such Third Party Site. Customer acknowledges that any terms and conditions governing Customer's use of such Third Party Sites are solely between Customer and the applicable Third Party Provider and that Customer is not a party to any agreement between Customer and any Third Party Provider. Customer should review the applicable policies, including privacy and data gathering practices, of any Third Party Site to which Customer navigates from the Product, or relating to any software Customer uses or installs from a Third Party Site. Concerns regarding a Third Party Site should be directed to the Third Party Site itself. Snowfire bears no responsibility for any action associated with any Third Party Site. Snowfire reserves the right to change, at any time with or without notice to Customer, which Third Party Sites, if any, that the Products use or are linked to.
Customer may enable integrations between the Product and certain Third Party Providers contracted by Customer ("Third Party Integrations"). Customer hereby represents and warrants that it shall have all rights and licenses necessary for Snowfire to enable a Third Party Integration, including through the use of a Third Party Provider's application programming interface ("API"). If Customer enables a Third Party Integration, Customer acknowledges that Snowfire may allow the Third Party Provider to access Customer Data to the extent required for the interoperation of such Third Party Providers with the Product. Snowfire will not be responsible for any disclosure, modification, or deletion of any Data resulting from any such access by Third Party Providers, and Customer is responsible for providing any and all instructions to such Third Party Providers about the use and protection of such Customer Data.
CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT SNOWFIRE USES THIRD-PARTY APIS AND THAT SUCH APIS PROVIDE CERTAIN GENERATIVE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE FUNCTIONALITIES THAT INFORM THE OUTPUTS. Snowfire reserves the right to change, at any time with or without notice to Customer, which third-party APIs, if any, that the Products use or are linked to, including any general AI models or model providers. Snowfire may, but is not required to, use or link to any generative AI models or model providers requested by Customer for Customer's use of the Products as set forth herein to the extent:
(i) commercially and technologically feasible, as determined in Snowfire's sole discretion;
(ii) such model or provider does not pose a security threat or similar risk; and
(iii) Snowfire reserves the right to revoke or terminate such use or link.
For the avoidance of doubt and as further set forth herein, Customer represents and warrants that to the extent any Customer Data includes personally identifiable information, Customer has provided all necessary notices and received all necessary consents for Snowfire to process and use such information in connection with generative artificial intelligence functionalities and other large language models.
If designated in the Order Form, Snowfire shall offer the Product free of charge for the evaluation term length set forth in the Order Form commencing on the Effective Date (the "Evaluation Term"). Each party shall have the right to terminate the Agreement at any time during the Evaluation Term upon written notice to the other party (email sufficient). If neither party provides such notice, the Initial Term shall automatically commence at the end of the Evaluation Term. The initial term length shall commence on the later of the Effective Date or the end of the Evaluation Term, as applicable, and shall continue for the initial term length set forth in the Order Form (the "Initial Term"), which shall automatically renew for successive terms of equal length beginning on the day immediately following the expiration of the Initial Term or then-current renewal term (each, a "Renewal Term" and each together with the Initial Term, collectively, the "Term") unless either party provides notice to the other party of its intent not renew at least sixty (60) days before the end of the Initial Term or then-current Renewal Term.
This Agreement and the Order Form may be terminated as follows:
(i) immediately if the other party materially breaches any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement, the Order Form, a Statement of Work or to the extent such breach is curable, upon thirty (30) days' notice if the breaching party fails to cure such breach within such time period; or
(ii) by either party in the event the other party becomes insolvent or bankrupt, becomes the subject of any proceedings under bankruptcy, insolvency or debtor's relief law, has a receiver or manager appointed, makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or takes the benefit of any applicable law or statute in force for the winding up or liquidation of such party's business.
For the avoidance of doubt, a breach of Section 6 shall be a material breach of this Agreement by Customer.
Snowfire reserves the right to suspend Customer's or any Authorized User's access to the Product in the event:
(i) Customer or Authorized Users use the Product in violation of the terms and conditions of this Agreement or the End User License Agreement in a manner that disrupts or is reasonably likely to disrupt the availability of the Product to other users;
(ii) Customer fails to make payment within five (5) business days of such payment becoming due; or
(iii) an emergency security issue.
If access is suspended pursuant to clause (iii), Snowfire will make commercially reasonable efforts to limit suspension to the minimum extent and duration necessary to eliminate the disruption.
Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason:
(i) Snowfire, in its sole discretion, may remove and discard any Customer Data;
(ii) Customer will immediately cease use of the Product; and
(iii) any provision that, by its terms, is intended to survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement shall survive such expiration or termination.
Further, Customer agrees that that Snowfire shall not be liable to Customer or any third party for any termination of Customer's account or access to the Product. Notwithstanding Section 9(d)(i) and unless otherwise required or restricted by law, prior to the removal or discard of any Customer Data, Customer shall have the right to request within thirty (30) days of the termination of this Agreement that that Snowfire provide all Customer Data in Snowfire's possession to Customer. Snowfire will deliver or make available for download any Customer Data requested pursuant to the previous sentence in a format maintained in Snowfire's ordinary course of business unless mutually agreed otherwise. Any outstanding Statement of Work shall immediately terminate upon the termination or expiration of this Agreement.
Snowfire shall indemnify and hold Customer and its affiliates, and each of their officers, directors, employees, agents, partners and licensors harmless from and against any loss, damage, cost, liability and expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees) finally awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction or paid in settlement (collectively, "Losses") to the extent arising from any action or claim of a third party (each, a "Claim") asserting that the Product infringes the intellectual property rights of such third party; provided, however, that Snowfire shall have no obligation to indemnify Customer from any such Claim to the extent they arise from:
(i) use of the Product in any manner that does not comply in all material respects with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any applicable laws, rules or regulations;
(ii) use of the Product in combination with any hardware or software not provided or approved by Snowfire;
(iii) modifications to the Product not made or authorized by Snowfire; or
(iv) Data or any other data or content submitted by Customer or third parties, including Authorized Users, to the Product (clauses (i) through (iv), collectively, "Customer Acts").
In the event that any part of the Product becomes the subject of or Snowfire reasonably determines that any part of the Product is likely to become the subject of a Claim as set forth in the previous sentence, Snowfire may, at its sole discretion:
(1) procure for Customer a license as necessary for Customer to exercise the rights granted by Snowfire under this Agreement;
(2) modify or replace the Product to avoid infringement, provided, however, that the Product as modified or replaced retains materially the same or better features and functionality; or
(3) terminate this Agreement and provide a pro rata refund of the fees paid by Customer to Snowfire for the unused portion of the Initial Term or then-current Renewal Term, as applicable.

(iii) Customer's use of the Product, except as expressly permitted in this Agreement.
The indemnified party shall:
(i) give the indemnifying party prompt written notice of any indemnified claim, provided, however, that failure of the indemnified party to give such prompt written notice shall not relieve the indemnifying party of any obligation to indemnify pursuant to this Section 10, except to the extent the indemnifying party has been prejudiced thereby;
(ii) cooperate fully with the indemnifying party, at the indemnifying party's expense, in the defense or settlement of any indemnified claim; and

Artificial intelligence and machine learning are rapidly evolving fields of study. Snowfire is constantly working to improve the Product and Professional Services to make them more accurate, reliable, safe, and beneficial. Given the probabilistic nature of machine learning, use of the Product may, in some situations, result in Output that does not accurately reflect real people, places, or facts.

(i) Outputs may not always be accurate, and Customer should not rely on Outputs from the Product as a sole source of truth or factual information or as a substitute for professional advice;
(ii) Customer must evaluate Outputs for accuracy and appropriateness for Customer's use case, including using human review as appropriate, before using or sharing Outputs from the Product;
(iii) Customer must not use any Output relating to a person for any purpose that could have a legal or material impact on that person, such as making credit, educational, employment, housing, insurance, legal, medical, or other important decisions about them; and
(iv) the Product may provide incomplete, incorrect, or offensive Outputs that does not represent Snowfire's views.
If an Output references any third party products or services, it does not mean the third party is affiliated with Snowfire or that Snowfire endorses such third party.

NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NEITHER PARTY'S AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO THE OTHER PARTY DURING THE EVALUATION TERM SHALL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100).
THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS, EXCLUSIONS AND DISCLAIMERS SHALL APPLY REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH LIABILITY ARISES FROM ANY CLAIM BASED UPON CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, AND WHETHER OR NOT THE PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGE. INSOFAR AS APPLICABLE LAW PROHIBITS ANY LIMITATION ON LIABILITY HEREIN, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT SUCH LIMITATION WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY MODIFIED, BUT ONLY TO THE EXTENT SO AS TO MAKE THE LIMITATION COMPLIANT WITH APPLICABLE LAW. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITIES SET FORTH HEREIN ARE AGREED ALLOCATIONS OF RISK AND SUCH LIMITATIONS WILL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING THE FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY.
