Only Customer’s Users may access and use the Services ordered by Customer hereunder. Customer is responsible for maintaining the security of Customer’s account, passwords (including but not limited to administrative and user passwords) and files and for use of Customer’s account by Customer or any other person or entity who accesses Customer’s account via or as a result of Customer, with or without Customer’s knowledge or consent (unless such unauthorized access was caused by DataLakeHouse.io), and if Customer becomes aware of any violation, Customer will immediately terminate the offending party’s access to the Services and notify DataLakeHouse.io.

3. Term and Termination
(a) Term. These Terms and Conditions will begin on the Effective Date and continue until terminated as set forth herein. Unless otherwise agreed, Subscription Services automatically renew for successive periods of twelve (12) months each, unless a party gives the other party written notice of non-renewal at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the then-current term, or the applicable Order Form is sooner terminated as provided herein.
(b) Termination. Either party may terminate the Agreement (in whole or with respect to an applicable Order Form) upon written notice to the other party if such other party materially breaches any provision of the Agreement and fails to cure such breach within thirty (30) days following such notice thereof (except that a breach of Section 7 is not capable of cure) or immediately if Customer infringes upon or misappropriates DataLakeHouse.io’s intellectual property or pursuant to the receipt of a subpoena, court order, request by a law enforcement agency, or as otherwise required by law. In addition, either party may terminate the Agreement (in whole) at any time upon written notice to the other party if the term(s) of all Services have expired.
(c) Effects of Termination and Survival. The expiration of an individual Order Form or any Services will not impact any other Order Form or Services or the remainder of the Agreement. If the Agreement is terminated in whole, the Agreement and all corresponding Order Forms will terminate. Customer will pay for all Services up to the effective date of termination.
Upon expiration or termination of the Agreement (in whole or with respect to any Order Form), DataLakeHouse.io will disable the applicable Services. Customer may download its Customer Data prior to such expiration or termination and may request a copy of its Customer Data for up to ninety (90) days thereafter. Such copy will be provided by DataLakeHouse.io to Customer in an industry-standard format. Thereafter, DataLakeHouse.io will delete the Customer Data within thirty (30) days unless otherwise legally prohibited.
The provisions of Sections 2(a) (the last two sentences only), 2(b) (the last two sentences only), 2(c), 3(c), 5, 6 (other than Section 6(d)), 7 (to the extent set forth therein), 8(d), and 9-11 (except that the rights and obligations set forth in Section 9 shall survive only with respect to claims based on actions or inactions that occurred during the term of the Agreement, and such provision shall otherwise be of no force or effect) and any and all remedies for breach of the Agreement shall survive any termination or expiration of the Agreement.
4. Obligations of the Parties
(a) Compliance with Laws. Both parties shall comply in all material respects with all laws, regulations, rules, orders and other requirements, now or hereafter in effect, of any governmental authority, applicable to its performance hereunder.
(b) Customer Obligations. Customer agrees and warrants that it (i) will install the latest version of the Software to access and use the Subscription Services; (ii) is legally able to provide Customer Data to DataLakeHouse.io and its Affiliates, including obtaining appropriate consents for any processing by DataLakeHouse.io; (iii) will establish a constant internet connection and electrical supply for the use of the Subscription Services; (iv) will ensure that the Services are used only with public domain or properly licensed third party materials; and (v) will keep its registration information, billing information, passwords and technical data accurate, complete, secure and current during the term of the Agreement.
5. Payment
(a) Payment. Customer will pay DataLakeHouse.io in accordance with the applicable Order Form(s). Fees for the Services shall be as set forth in an Order Form and do not include Taxes or service provider fees (such as payment processor or vendor management). To the extent the Service or any portion thereof is made available for any fee, You will be required to select a payment plan and provide DataLakeHouse information regarding Your credit card or other payment instrument. You represent and warrant to DataLakeHouse that such information is true and that You are authorized to use the payment instrument. You will promptly update Your account information with any changes (for example, a change in Your billing address or credit card expiration date) that may occur. You agree to pay DataLakeHouse the amount that is specified in the payment plan in accordance with the terms of such plan and the TOS. You hereby authorize DataLakeHouse to bill Your payment instrument in advance on a periodic basis in accordance with the terms of the applicable payment plan until You terminate Your account, and You further agree to pay any charges so incurred. If You dispute any charges You must let DataLakeHouse know within sixty (60) days after the date that DataLakeHouse invoices You. DataLakeHouse reserves the right to change DataLakeHouse's prices. If DataLakeHouse does, DataLakeHouse will provide notice of the change in email to You, at least 30 days before the change is to take effect. Your continued use of the Service after the price change becomes effective constitutes Your agreement to pay the changed amount.
(b) Scope of Usage. Fees are established by counting the Units associated with the ordered Services. For instance, fees for Services may be established based on the number of unique users of Customer’s software platform(s) over a thirty (30)-day period (i.e., MAUs) or the number of seats or Application Keys Customer orders (or a combination thereof). If, during the term of an Order Form, Customer’s usage exceeds the quantity of Units in the Order Form, Customer’s fees will increase based on the applicable price per Unit. Unless otherwise agreed between the parties, the additional fees will commence on the date Customer first exceeded its quantity of Units and be prorated for the remainder of the applicable term. In addition, if Customer exceeds five billion Events per Application Key per month, DataLakeHouse.io and Customer will assess additional fees for such excess usage.
(c) Taxes. All fees are exclusive of Taxes, and Customer shall pay or reimburse DataLakeHouse.io for all Taxes arising out of the Agreement. If Customer is required to withhold or deduct any Taxes from the payment of any fees, Customer will increase the amount payable to DataLakeHouse.io by the amount of such Taxes so that DataLakeHouse.io receives the full amount of all fees and expenses. If DataLakeHouse.io has the legal obligation to pay or collect Taxes for which Customer is responsible, the appropriate amount shall be invoiced to and paid by the Customer, unless Customer provides DataLakeHouse.io with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority. DataLakeHouse.io’s failure to initially invoice Customer for any applicable Taxes does not relieve Customer from responsibility for such Taxes under the Agreement.
6. Ownership; Feedback; Customer Data; Protection
(a) Ownership. DataLakeHouse.io (and/or its licensors) is the sole and exclusive owner of all rights, title and interest in and to the Services and DataLakeHouse.io’s proprietary property (including intellectual property rights) and reserves all rights, title and interest in and to the Services not expressly granted under the Agreement. No ownership right is conveyed to Customer in the Services or DataLakeHouse.io’s proprietary property, irrespective of the use of terms such as “purchase” or “sale” in any Order Form.
(b) Feedback. From time to time, Customer or its Users may submit to DataLakeHouse.io comments, questions, enhancement requests, suggestions, ideas, process descriptions or other information related to the Services (“Feedback”). Customer hereby grants to DataLakeHouse.io a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free license to use and incorporate the Feedback for any purpose without restriction, attribution or payment to Customer.
(c) Customer Data. Customer is the sole and exclusive owner of all rights, title and interest in and to the Customer Data (including intellectual property rights) and reserves all rights, title and interest in and to the Customer Data not expressly granted under the Agreement. Customer hereby grants DataLakeHouse.io the right to use Customer Data for providing and improving the Services. Customer will be solely responsible for the procurement, accuracy, quality, and content of Customer Data.
(d) Protection. During the term of any Services ordered hereunder, each party shall comply with its respective obligations under applicable data protection laws, and each party shall maintain a reasonable security program in accordance with industry standards that is designed to protect the security of, and prevent unauthorized access to, Confidential Information and Customer Data. Such security program shall include implementation of appropriate administrative, technical and physical safeguards. To the extent applicable, the parties will process Personal Data in accordance with DataLakeHouse.io’s Data Processing Addendum, which is incorporated by reference.
7. Confidentiality
(a) Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” means all information disclosed by a party (“Disclosing Party”) to the other party (“Receiving Party”), whether orally or in writing, that is designated as confidential at the time of disclosure or that reasonably should be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information and/or the circumstances of disclosure, including, without limitation, the terms and conditions of the Agreement (including pricing), business and marketing plans, technology and technical information, product plans and designs, and business processes. “Confidential Information” does not include any information that (i) is or becomes publicly available without breach by the Receiving Party under the Agreement, (ii) at the time of disclosure was known to the Receiving Party without obligation of confidentiality, (iii) is received by the Receiving Party from a third party not under an obligation of confidentiality, or (iv) was independently developed by the Receiving Party without use of or reference to Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party.
(b) Obligations. The Receiving Party will use the same degree of care to protect the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information that it uses to protect its own confidential information of like-kind (but not less than reasonable care) including by, except as otherwise authorized by the Disclosing Party, limiting access to the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information to Receiving Party’s employees, contractors, Affiliates and agents who have a need to know the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information for purposes consistent with the Agreement and that are subject to confidentiality obligations to the Receiving Party containing protections not materially less protective than those contained herein. These obligations will continue for a period of two (2) years following initial disclosure of the particular Confidential Information (except for any Confidential Information constituting a trade secret under applicable law (as confirmed in good faith by counsel to the disclosing party), which shall be subject to these obligations for so long as it qualifies as a trade secret).
(c) Compelled Disclosure. Nothing in the Agreement will prevent the Receiving Party from disclosing the Confidential Information pursuant to any judicial or governmental order or as otherwise required by law, provided that, where legally permissible, the Receiving Party gives the Disclosing Party reasonable prior notice of such disclosure.
8. Limited Warranty; Disclaimer
(a) Limited Warranty. Subject to Section 8(b), DataLakeHouse.io warrants to Customer that during the term of such Services (the “Warranty Period”) (i) the Subscription Services will not deviate in a material adverse manner from the Documentation for such Subscription Services then in effect; (ii) DataLakeHouse.io will not inject any software traps, viruses, worms, trap doors, malicious code, disabling code, or other means or functions designed to damage or corrupt the Subscription Services or otherwise damage or destroy data or other property and (iii) the Services will be performed in a professional and workmanlike manner by qualified personnel.
(b) Exceptions. The limited warranty set forth in Section 8(a) shall not apply to problems arising out of or relating to (i) Customer’s or its representatives’ modification of or damage to the Subscription Services unless such modification was made pursuant to the Documentation; (ii) any unauthorized third-party software or hardware that are operated with or incorporated into the Subscription Services by Customer; (iii) negligence, abuse, misapplication or misuse of the Services, including any use of the Subscription Services other than as specified in the Documentation; (iv) Customer’s failure to comply with any minimum system requirements specified in the Documentation; or (v) a deficiency in Customer’s systems or network used to access the Subscription Services.

The limited warranty set forth in Section 8(a) shall only apply if Customer has met its payment obligations pursuant to Section 4 and notifies DataLakeHouse.io in writing of the warranty breach before the expiration of the Warranty Period. For the avoidance of doubt, if payment for the Services is not yet due or invoices are being disputed in good faith, then Customer will not be considered to have unmet payment obligations.
(d) Disclaimer. EXCEPT AS SPECIFICALLY SET FORTH IN SECTION 8(A), DataLakeHouse.io MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AND THE PRODUCTS AND SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS.” DataLakeHouse.io HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY: (A) IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGEMENT; AND (B) IMPLIED WARRANTY ARISING FROM COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, COURSE OF DEALING, OR USAGE OF TRADE. DataLakeHouse.io DOES NOT WARRANT THAT OPERATION OF OR USE OF THE PRODUCTS WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE.

DataLakeHouse.io IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DELAYS, DELIVERY FAILURES, OR OTHER DAMAGE RESULTING FROM SUCH PROBLEMS.
9. Indemnification
(a) By DataLakeHouse.io. Subject to Section 9(b) below, DataLakeHouse.io shall defend Customer and its employees, officers, directors, and agents from and against all claims, actions, demands, and suits by third parties and pay all losses, liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses associated therewith (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that are included in a final (non-appealable) judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or in a settlement approved by DataLakeHouse.io arising from or in connection with any allegation that the Subscription Services infringe the third party’s intellectual property rights. In the event of any such claim hereunder, DataLakeHouse.io will use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) procure for Customer the right to continue to use the Subscription Services, (ii) provide a reasonable workaround solution, or (iii) replace or modify the Subscription Services to make their use non-infringing. If alternatives (i)-(iii) are not, in DataLakeHouse.io’s discretion, commercially reasonable, DataLakeHouse.io may terminate the Agreement or applicable Order Form upon written notice to Customer, and Customer may receive a pro rata refund for the remainder of the term for the affected Services.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, DataLakeHouse.io shall not have any liability or obligations under this Section 9(a) if the alleged infringement or the claim is based upon or results from: (I) use of the Subscription Services (A) in combination with any other programs, products or processes not provided by DataLakeHouse.io to Customer, (B) other than as permitted under the Agreement, or (C) other than in accordance with the applicable Documentation; (II) any act or omission of any party other than DataLakeHouse.io; (III) DataLakeHouse.io’s compliance with designs, specifications or instructions provided by Customer; (IV) use of any release of the Subscription Services if the infringement would not have occurred or would have been significantly less likely through use of a more recent release or after notice by DataLakeHouse.io to discontinue use of the Subscription Services; (V) Customer’s claim or lawsuit against a third party or (VI) any third-party software or equipment that is used in connection with the Subscription Services. The foregoing states the entire liability of DataLakeHouse.io, and Customer’s exclusive remedy, with respect to any actual or alleged violation of intellectual property rights by any of the Subscription Services or any part thereof or by their use or operation.
(b) Indemnification procedures. In the event of an indemnifiable claim under Section 9(a), Customer must (i) provide prompt written notice of (and information in its possession with respect to, including a reasonable estimate of the amount of damages involved in) the claim to DataLakeHouse.io (but any delay by Customer in giving such notice shall not excuse DataLakeHouse.io’s obligations under Section 9(a) except to the extent, if any, that DataLakeHouse.io is materially prejudiced by such delay); (ii) give DataLakeHouse.io sole authority to defend and settle the claim (except that DataLakeHouse.io may not enter any settlement that requires Customer to admit any liability without Customer’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and (iii) provide reasonable assistance to DataLakeHouse.io (at DataLakeHouse.io’s cost). If any indemnifiable claim includes allegations regarding non-indemnifiable matters, DataLakeHouse.io will only be responsible for the share of losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (as set forth above) relating to the indemnifiable matter.
