1. Free-Trial Orders.

This Agreement sets forth the terms pursuant to which Customer may access and use the Free-Trial Services in connection with one or more Free-Trial Orders. Subject to the terms of a Free-Trial Order, the Free-Trial Services will support Customer’s marketing communication strategy and related decision support by surveying, monitoring, managing and analyzing uploaded Customer and/or Customer affiliate data in relation to Mindspeller proprietary data (collectively, but exclusive of all Free-Trial Services and Paid Services, “Customer’s Environment”).

 

2.  Access and Use.

2.1. Subject to the applicable Free-Trial Order and this Agreement, Mindspeller hereby grants to Customer the right to access and use the Free-Trial Services in accordance with the Documentation during the Free-Trial Term for Customer’s Environment.

 

2.2. As between the Parties, Customer controls Customer’s Environment and Customer’s uploaded data (each, a “Customer Asset”), whether owned through copyright or licensed by Customer, located on Customer’s servers or cloud-based, used by Customer on a software-as-a-service basis or otherwise. Customer will be able to use the Free-Trial Services by establishing integrations or other connections to one or more Customer Assets (each, a “Connection”). By implementing a Connection to a Customer Asset, Customer hereby grants to Mindspeller the right, and is expressly instructing Mindspeller, to access and interoperate with that Customer Asset during the Free-Trial Term in order to provide and support the Free-Trial Services. Customer is responsible for complying with all applicable third-party terms, policies and licenses governing its access and use of Customer Assets and associated data (collectively, “Third-Party Terms”).

 

2.3. Through Customer’s configuration and use of Connections and Free-Trial Services, Customer has control over the types and amounts of data from Customer’s Environment that are submitted for Processing by the Services (collectively, “Customer Data”). By submitting Customer Data to the Free-Trial Services, Customer hereby grants to Mindspeller the right, and is expressly instructing Mindspeller, to Process Customer Data during the Free-Trial Term in order to provide and support the Free-Trial Services and as otherwise provided in this Agreement.

 

2.4. All rights granted by each Party to the other under this Section 2 are limited, nonexclusive and, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, non-transferable.

 

3. Support.

Subject to this Agreement, Mindspeller may, at its option, provide Support to Authorized Users through the Services and by email.

 

4. Free-Trial Subscription.

Mindspeller will make the Free-Trial Services available to Customer until the earliest of: (a) the end of the period specified in the applicable Free-Trial Order; (b) the start date of any Paid Order for the applicable Services; (c) termination by Mindspeller, at any time, in its sole discretion; or (d) termination by Customer pursuant to Section 26. Additional terms and conditions, including Supplemental Terms, may apply to Free-Trial Services and Customer agrees any such additional terms and conditions are incorporated into this Agreement by reference and are legally binding.

 

5. APIs and Tools.

One or more APIs can be made available to Customer upon e-mail request to assist with Customer’s implementation of Connections, and Mindspeller makes client libraries available to facilitate Customer’s coding against the API(s). In addition, Authorized Users may install a Mindspeller-produced software agent on specified Customer servers to support Customer’s collection of Customer Assets. The code for these libraries and agents (collectively, “Ancillary Tools”) can be requested via contact@mindspeller.com. Customer determines and controls what APIs and Ancillary Tools (if any) to use in connection with the Free-Trial Services. By using an API or Ancillary Tool in connection with the Free-Trial Services, Customer hereby agrees to do so in accordance with the Documentation and, in the case of the Ancillary Tool, with the applicable licenses (provided that if an applicable license for an Ancillary Tool contradicts rights or restrictions in the Documentation, the license will take precedence). The Ancillary Tools are not “Free-Trial Services” or “Support” for purposes of this Agreement.

 

6. Hosting and Other Providers.

Mindspeller uses third-party hosting providers, other service providers and Mindspeller Affiliates to support the provision of the Free-Trial Services and Support in the ordinary course of its business, i.e., not specifically for Customer (collectively, “Ordinary Course Providers”). Mindspeller reserves the right to engage and substitute Ordinary Course Providers as it deems appropriate, but shall: (a) remain responsible to Customer for the provision of the Free-Trial Services and Support and (b) be liable for the actions and omissions of its Ordinary Course Providers undertaken in connection with Mindspeller’s performance of this Agreement to the same extent Mindspeller would be liable if performing the Free-Trial Services or Support directly. In no event shall providers of Customer Assets be deemed Ordinary Course Providers for any purpose under this Agreement.

 

7. Security and Privacy.

7.1. Each Party has obligations with respect to the security of the Free-Trial Services and Customer Data. Taking into account the nature and types of Customer Data, Mindspeller will employ administrative, physical and technical measures in accordance with applicable industry practice to protect the Free-Trial Services and prevent the accidental loss or unauthorized access, use, alteration or disclosure of Customer Data under its control during each Free-Trial Term.

 

7.2. Customer is responsible for properly configuring the Free-Trial Services in accordance with the Documentation, enabling single sign-on for Customer’s accounts, and securing access passwords, keys, tokens or other credentials used by Customer in connection with the Free-Trial Services (collectively, “Customer Credentials”). Customer agrees to use reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized access or use of the Free-Trial Services and to promptly notify Mindspeller if Customer believes (a) any Customer Credentials have been lost, stolen or made available to an unauthorized third party or (b) an unauthorized third party has accessed the Free-Trial Services or Customer Data.

 

7.3. Except for limited Personal Information in Account Data, Mindspeller does not require Personal Information for Customer’s access and use of the Free-Trial Services. Customer shall limit Personal Information in Account Data to only that necessary for the creation and administration of its Mindspeller accounts. With regard to Customer Data, Customer shall not use the Free-Trial Services to Process any Sensitive Information and shall use reasonable efforts to restrict the inclusion of other Personal Information in Customer Data. The Documentation provides further information on both filtering Personal Information from, and masking Personal Information in, data before they are submitted to the Free-Trial Services.

 

7.4. Mindspeller may Process information about Customer’s configuration and use of the Free-Trial Services (“Usage Data”), Customer Data and Account Data: (a) to manage Customer’s account; (b) to provide and improve the Free-Trial Services and Support, including to address requests for Support and troubleshoot other issues; and (c) to provide Customer and Authorized Users insights, service and feature announcements and other reporting. Mindspeller may also Process Usage Data that has been aggregated and/or anonymized (including, for clarity, that does not allow a third party to identify Customer as the source of the information): (i) to develop new services and features and (ii) to promote Mindspeller’s services, including, for example, through analyses of patterns and trends. Mindspeller’s Processing of Usage Data, Customer Data and Account Data shall at all times be subject to Mindspeller’s obligations under this Agreement, including those of security under Section 7.1 and confidentiality under Section 11; any applicable Supplemental Terms; and, with respect to Account Data, the Privacy Policy.

8.3. Mindspeller reserves the right to investigate potential violations of the above provisions of this Section 8. In the event Mindspeller reasonably believes a violation has occurred, in addition to any other remedies available at law or in equity, Mindspeller will have the right to suspend Authorized Users suspected of the violation from accessing the Free-Trial Services for so long as is reasonably necessary to address the potential violation. For clarity, Mindspeller reserves the right, but does not assume any obligation to Customer, to take any of the actions described in this Section 8.3.

 

9. Compliance with Applicable Laws.

9.1. Customer shall comply with Applicable Laws concerning the privacy and protection of Personal Information.

9.2. Customer shall comply with Applicable Laws concerning anti-bribery and anti-corruption, which may include the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 and the UK Bribery Act 2010. As of the date of this Agreement and the date of each Free-Trial Order, Customer represents that it has neither received nor been offered any illegal or improper bribe, kickback, payment, gift or thing of value from any employee, agent or representative of Mindspeller or its Affiliates in connection with this Agreement. Customer agrees to promptly notify Mindspeller if it learns of any violation of the foregoing.

9.3.

Customer represents that it is not a Sanctions Target or prohibited from receiving Free-Trial Services pursuant to this Agreement under Applicable Laws, including Export Laws.

 

10. Ownership.

As between the Parties: (a) Customer owns all right, title and interest in and to Customer’s Environment and Customer Data, including in each case all associated Intellectual Property Rights, and (b) under the fair use exception of the US Digital Millenium Copyright Act (DMCA), Mindspeller owns all right, title and interest in and to the Paid Services, Free-Trial Services, Documentation and Feedback, including in each case all associated Intellectual Property Rights. Except for the rights expressly granted by one Party to the other in this Agreement, all rights are reserved by the granting Party.

11.1. As used in this Agreement, “Confidential Information” means any information disclosed by one Party, its Affiliates, business partners or their respective employees, agents or contractors (collectively, the “Discloser”) that is designated as confidential, either orally or in writing, or that, given the nature of the information or circumstances surrounding its disclosure, reasonably should be understood to be confidential.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Recipient may disclose the Discloser’s Confidential Information to the limited extent any use or disclosure is required by Applicable Law or a valid and binding order of a governmental body (such as a subpoena or court order), provided that, to the extent permitted under Applicable Law, the Recipient uses reasonable efforts to give the Discloser reasonable advance notice thereof to afford the Discloser an opportunity to intervene and seek an order or other appropriate relief for the protection of its Confidential Information. In the event of any breach or threatened breach by the Recipient of its obligations under this Section, the Discloser will be entitled to seek injunctive and other equitable relief to enforce such obligations.
