VISO TRUST hereby grants to Vendor, subject to the terms and on the conditions of this Agreement, a limited, royaltyfree, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, nonexclusive right to access and use the SaaS Software solely to upload Vendor Content to VISO TRUST for use by VISO TRUST and its customers. For clarity, no copy of the SaaS Software is or will be made available to Vendor or any third party pursuant to this\u00a0Section 1.1.<\/u><\/p>\n1.2 No Updates or Support<\/h3>\n
Vendor acknowledges and agrees that VISO TRUST has no obligation to make any updates to the SaaS Software or to provide Vendor with any support or maintenance with respect to the SaaS Software.<\/p>\n
Vendor acknowledges that the SaaS Software contains valuable trade secrets of VISO TRUST and its licensors and suppliers and contains confidential and proprietary information of VISO TRUST. Accordingly, Vendor agrees that it may not, nor shall permit any third party to: (i) modify, adapt, alter, translate, or create derivative works of the SaaS Software; (ii) create Internet “links” to the SaaS Software or “mirror” any data, information, content, or other material of VISO TRUST that is provided to it through the use of the SaaS Software; (iii) build a commercial product or service using similar ideas, features, functions, or graphics of the SaaS Software or that is otherwise competitive with the SaaS Software; (iv) sublicense, resell, rent, lease, transfer, or assign SaaS Software or its use, or offer the SaaS Software on a time share basis to any third party; (v) reverse engineer, decompile, decode, or disassemble the SaaS Software; (vi) otherwise attempt to derive the source code for the SaaS Software or any underlying software or attempt to gain access to any underlying code used to implement or deploy the SaaS Software; or (vii) disable, disrupt, circumvent, or otherwise interfere with any feature, functionality, or control that prevents, restricts, or otherwise governs access to, or use of, the SaaS Software. For clarity, Vendor receives no right or license to any source code to the SaaS Software under this Agreement.<\/p>\n
As between VISO TRUST and Vendor, all Vendor Content is owned by Vendor, and Vendor represents and warrants it has the right to provide all Vendor Content to VISO TRUST for further use and disclosure by VISO TRUST as contemplated hereunder. Except as provided herein, VISO TRUST will not disclose any Vendor Content to any third party other than: (i) employees, vendors, service providers, and other contractors of VISO TRUST who have a need to know the Vendor Content for purposes of enabling VISO TRUST to provide its products and services; and (ii) those customers of VISO TRUST that are expressly authorized by Vendor. Except as provided herein, VISO TRUST will not use the Vendor Content in a manner that publicly discloses, or discloses to any other customers of VISO TRUST, any confidential relationship between Vendor and any actual or prospective customer of Vendor without Vendor\u2019s or the applicable customer\u2019s prior consent.<\/p>\n

Feedback and Improvements may also be used to improve the SaaS Software for other customers and vendors of VISO TRUST.<\/p>\n In addition to any other rights of VISO TRUST hereunder, VISO TRUST may disclose Vendor Content to the extent required by applicable law or pursuant to a valid order issued by a court or government agency, provided that VISO TRUST provides Vendor, without delay, written notice of such disclosure requirement and cooperates with Vendor if Vendor seeks to limit or oppose such disclosure.<\/p>\n Each Party shall comply with all applicable laws in relation to its obligations or performance under this Agreement. Vendor specifically agrees to comply with all export control, embargo, and sanctions laws and regulations of the United States and any other applicable jurisdiction, and each Party specifically agrees to comply with all applicable anti-corruption laws, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.<\/p>\n The SaaS Software may contain errors, bugs, and other problems that could cause unavailability or failure of the SaaS Software.

No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power, or privilege under this Agreement shall, in either case, operate as a waiver, nor shall any single exercise, any single failure to exercise, or a partial exercise of a right, power, or privilege hereunder, in any case, preclude the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege. No waiver of any right, power, or privilege hereunder shall be valid unless made in writing and signed by the waiving Party.<\/p>\n If any provision of this Agreement or the application of such provision to any person or circumstance shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, unenforceable, or void, the remainder of this Agreement or the application of such provisions as applied to other persons, places, and circumstances shall remain in full force and effect.<\/p>\n Any notice required or permitted to be given by either Party under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be personally delivered, sent by a facsimile transmission, sent by certified or registered mail, or sent by a nation-wide courier service, to the other Party at its address set forth in this Agreement or such new address as may from time to time be supplied by the Parties hereto in accordance with this\u00a0Section 7.4<\/u>. If personally delivered, notices will be deemed delivered and effective on the date of personal delivery. If sent by facsimile machine, then notices will be deemed delivered and effective upon the date of confirmation of receipt by answer-back from the recipient.

VISO TRUST may freely assign this Agreement. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns. VISO TRUST may subcontract any or all of its obligations under this Agreement without Vendor\u2019s consent, provided that VISO TRUST will remain responsible for such subcontractor\u2019s performance hereunder.<\/p>\n The Parties acknowledge that any breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement may cause irreparable harm and significant injury to VISO TRUST, the extent of which may be extremely difficult to ascertain.

Notwithstanding the above, neither Party will be required to arbitrate a dispute relating to the misuse or misappropriation or any confidential or proprietary information or the infringement of intellectual property rights, which dispute shall be brought in the federal and state courts in Alameda County, California, and each Party hereby consents to the jurisdiction and venue of such courts for such disputes. The Parties agree that any and all process directly to any of them in any such litigation may be served outside the State of California with the same force and effect as if the service had been made within the State of California and that service of process may be effected in accordance with\u00a0Section 7.4<\/u>\u00a0hereof.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 1.
