Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, Together has no liability for Prohibited Data or use of the Service for High Risk Activities.

5 - Technical Services

Any purchased Technical Services are as described in the relevant Order. Customer will give Together timely access to Customer Materials reasonably needed for the Technical Services, and if Customer fails to do so, Together’s obligation to provide Technical Services will be excused until access is provided. Together will use Customer Materials only for purposes of providing Technical Services.

6 - Commercial Terms

6.1 - Subscription Term

Each Subscription Term shall automatically renew for subsequent periods of the same length as the initial Term unless either party gives the other written notice of termination at least thirty (30) days prior to expiration of the then-current Term. The Customer can give a written notice through the admin panel of its account on Together's App.

6.2 - Fees

   6.2.1 Fees are as described in each Order. Customer will reimburse Together for reasonable travel and lodging expenses it incurs in providing Technical Services. Fees are invoiced on the schedule in the Order and reimbursable expenses are invoiced in arrears. Unless the Order provides otherwise, all fees and expenses are due within 30 days of the invoice date. Late payments are subject to a service charge of 1.5% per month or the maximum amount allowed by Law, whichever is less. All fees and expenses are non-refundable except as set out in Section 7.2 (Warranty Remedy), Section 12.4 (Mitigation and Exceptions) and Section 17.1 (Modifications to Agreement).

　6.2.2. Fees Generally. In consideration for the Services, Customer will pay to Together the then-current fees set forth in the “Account” section of Customer’s account in the Services unless otherwise set forth in an applicable Service Order (including applicable overages, “Fees”). For the avoidance of doubt, self-service Customers may opt-in to automatic upgrade billing within the Customer’s account. Together shall be entitled to with hold performance and suspend or discontinue the Services until all amounts due are paid in full. In the event of a temporary suspension of Customer’s access to the Services, applicable Fees will continue to accrue.

　6.2.3 Fee Increases. Together will provide Customer fourteen (14) days advance notice for any increase in fees. Any increases to the Fees shall apply at the beginning of the Customer’s following Term. Customer’s continued use of the Services after a Fee increase will constitute Customer’s agreement to the increase in Fees.

　6.2.4 Billing, Invoicing, and Payment Terms. Together will charge Customer the Fees for the Services in advance for each billing period on or after the first day of such billing period. All Fees for Services are due and payable in Euros and are non-refundable. If Customer is paying by credit card
       (a) Customer hereby irrevocably authorises Together to charge the credit card or other payment method provided for any such amounts when due,
       (b) amounts due will be automatically charged,
       (c) if Customer’s credit card is declined, Together will attempt to reach out to Customer for a new payment method, and
     (d) if Customer’s credit card expires, Customer hereby gives Together permission to submit the credit card charge with a later expiration date. If Together fails to resolve an issue with Customer resulting from a credit card decline or expiration, Together may terminate the account due to non-payment. Customer agrees to notify Together of all billing disputes within fourteen (14) days of delivery of the billing statement or invoice, and disputes not made within that time are waived. Late payments, including those resulting from credit card declines, will accrue interest at a rate of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month, or the highest rate allowed by applicable law, whichever is lower. If Together must initiate a collections process to recover Fees due and payable hereunder, then Together shall be entitled to recover from Customer all costs associated with such collections efforts, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees. In the event Together delivers to Customer an invoice for any Fees or interest payments owed hereunder, such invoiced amounts shall be due upon receipt, unless otherwise set forth in the Service Order.

7 - Warranties and Disclaimers

7.1 - Limited Warranty

Together warrants to Customer that:

(a) the Service will perform materially as described in the Documentation and Together will not materially decrease the overall functionality of the Service during a Subscription Term (the “Performance Warranty”) and

(b) Together will perform any Technical Services in a professional and workmanlike manner (the “Technical Services Warranty”).

7.2 - Warranty Remedy

If Together breaches Section 7.1 (Limited Warranty) and Customer makes a reasonably detailed warranty claim within 30 days of discovering the issue, then Together will use reasonable efforts to correct the non-conformity. If Together cannot do so within 30 days of Customer’s warranty claim, either party may terminate the affected Order as relates to the non-conforming Service or Technical Services. Together will then refund to Customer any pre-paid, unused fees for the terminated portion of the Subscription Term (for the Performance Warranty) or for the non-conforming Technical Services (for the Technical Services Warranty). These procedures are Customer’s exclusive remedy and Together’s entire liability for breach of the warranties in Section 7.1. These warranties do not apply to (a) issues caused by misuse or unauthorized modifications, (b) issues in or caused by Third-Party Platforms or other third-party systems or (c) Trials and Betas or other free or evaluation use.

7.3 - Disclaimers

Except as expressly provided in Section 7.1 (Limited Warranty), the Service, Support, Technical Services and all related Together services are provided “as is”. Together and its suppliers make no other warranties, whether express, implied, statutory or otherwise, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title or noninfringement. Together does not warrant that Customer’s use of the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free. Together is not liable for delays, failures or problems inherent in use of the Internet and electronic communications or other systems outside Together’s control. Customer may have other statutory rights, but any statutorily required warranties will be limited to the shortest legally permitted period.

10 - Usage Data

Together may collect Usage Data and use it to operate, improve and support the Service and for other lawful business practices, such as analytics, benchmarking and reports.

11.4 - Nature of Claims and Failure of Essential Purpose

The waivers and limitations in this Section 11 apply regardless of the form of action, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability or otherwise and will survive and apply even if any limited remedy in this Agreement fails of its essential purpose.

12 - Indemnification

12.1 - Indemnification by Together

Together will defend Customer from and against any third-party claim to the extent alleging that the Service, when used by Customer as authorized in this Agreement, infringes a third party’s patent, copyright, trademark or trade secret, and will indemnify and hold harmless Customer against any damages or costs awarded against Customer (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) or agreed in settlement by Together resulting from the claim.

12.2 - Indemnification by Customer

Customer will defend Together from and against any third-party claim to the extent resulting from Customer Data, Customer Materials or Customer’s breach or alleged breach of Section 4 (Customer Obligations), and will indemnify and hold harmless Together against any damages or costs awarded against Together (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) or agreed in settlement by Customer resulting from the claim.

12.3 - Procedures

The indemnifying party’s obligations in this Section 12 are subject to receiving (a) prompt notice of the claim, (b) the exclusive right to control and direct the investigation, defense and settlement of the claim and (c) all reasonably necessary cooperation of the indemnified party, at the indemnifying party’s expense for reasonable out-of-pocket costs. The indemnifying party may not settle any claim without the indemnified party’s prior consent if settlement would require the indemnified party to admit fault or take or refrain from taking any action (other than relating to use of the Service, when Together is the indemnifying party). The indemnified party may participate in a claim with its own counsel at its own expense.

12.4 - Mitigation and Exceptions

In response to an actual or potential infringement claim, if required by settlement or injunction or as Together determines necessary to avoid material liability, Together may at its option: (a) procure rights for Customer’s continued use of the Service, (b) replace or modify the allegedly infringing portion of the Service to avoid infringement without reducing the Service’s overall functionality or (c) terminate the affected Order and refund to Customer any pre-paid, unused fees for the terminated portion of the Subscription Term. Together obligations in this Section 12 do not apply (1) to infringement resulting from Customer’s modification of the Service or use of the Service in combination with items not provided by Together, (2) to infringement resulting from Software other than the most recent release, (3) to unauthorized use of the Service, (4) if Customer settles or makes any admissions about a claim without Together's prior consent, (5) to Trials and Betas or other free or evaluation use or (6) to the extent the alleged infringement is not caused by the particular technology or implementation of the Service but instead by features common to any similar service. This Section 12 sets out Customer’s exclusive remedy and Together’s entire liability regarding infringement of third-party intellectual property rights.

13 - Confidentiality

13.1 - Definition

“Confidential Information” means information disclosed to the receiving party under this Agreement that is designated by the disclosing party as proprietary or confidential or that should be reasonably understood to be proprietary or confidential due to its nature and the circumstances of its disclosure.

13.2 - Obligations

As receiving party, each party will (a) hold Confidential Information in confidence and not disclose it to third parties except as permitted in this Agreement, and (b) only use Confidential Information to fulfill its obligations and exercise its rights in this Agreement. The receiving party may disclose Confidential Information to its employees, agents, contractors and other representatives having a legitimate need to know (including, for Together, the subcontractors referenced in Section 18.9), provided it remains responsible for their compliance with this Section 13 and they are bound to confidentiality obligations no less protective than this Section 13.

13.3 - Exclusions

These confidentiality obligations do not apply to information that the receiving party can document (a) is or becomes public knowledge through no fault of the receiving party, (b) it rightfully knew or possessed prior to receipt under this Agreement, (c) it rightfully received from a third party without breach of confidentiality obligations or (d) it independently developed without using the disclosing party’s Confidential Information.

13.4 - Remedies

Unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Information may cause substantial harm for which damages alone are an insufficient remedy. Each party may seek appropriate equitable relief, in addition to other available remedies, for breach or threatened breach of this Section 13.

14 - Required Disclosures

Nothing in this Agreement prohibits either party from making disclosures, including Confidential Information, if required by Law, subpoena or court order, provided (if permitted by Law) it notifies the other party in advance and cooperates in any effort to obtain confidential treatment.

15 - Trials and Betas

If Customer receives access to the Service or Service features on a free or trial basis or as an alpha, beta or early access offering (“Trials and Betas”), use is permitted only for Customer’s internal evaluation during the period designated by Together (or if not designated, 30 days). Trials and Betas are optional and either party may terminate Trials and Betas at any time for any reason. Trials and Betas may be inoperable, incomplete or include features that Together may never release, and their features and performance information are Together’s Confidential Information. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, Together provides no warranty, indemnity, SLA or support for Trials and Betas and its liability for Trials and Betas will not exceed US$50.

16 - Publicity

Neither party may publicly announce this Agreement except with the other party’s prior consent or as required by Laws.

17 - Modifications to the Agreement

In order to meet its legal obligations and to provide its Customers with secure and efficient Service, Together reserves the right to make changes to this Agreement at its discretion, in particular to ensure compliance with applicable law.

The Agreement can be checked at any time at the address https://together.do/terms-of-service.

Consequently, you are encouraged to regularly check the Together Terms of Service, in order to be informed of its latest changes.

Modifications take effect at Customer’s next Subscription Term or Order unless Together indicates an earlier effective date. If Together requires modifications with an earlier effective date and Customer objects, Customer’s exclusive remedy is to terminate this Agreement with notice to Together, in which case Together will provide Customer a refund of any pre-paid Service fees for the terminated portion of the current Subscription Term. To exercise this termination right, Customer must notify Together of its objections within 30 days after Together’s notice of the modified Agreement. Once the modified Agreement takes effect Customer’s continued use of the Service constitutes its acceptance of the modifications. Together may require Customer to click to accept the modified Agreement.
