X. Indemnification
If a third party makes a claim against either you or Cinch (“Recipient” which may refer to you or Cinch depending upon which party received the Material), that any information, design, specification, instruction, software, service, data, or material (“Material”) furnished by either you or Cinch (“Provider” which may refer to you or Cinch depending on which party provided the Material), and used by the Recipient infringes such third party’s intellectual property rights, the Provider, at its sole cost and expense, will defend the Recipient against the claim and indemnify the Recipient from the damages, liabilities, costs and expenses awarded by the court to the third party claiming infringement or the settlement agreed to by the Provider, if the Recipient does the following:
- notifies the Provider promptly in writing, not later than 30 days after the Recipient receives notice of the claim (or sooner if required by applicable law);
- gives the Provider sole control of the defense and any settlement negotiations; provided, however, that Provider shall not admit guilt or agree to any non-monetary relief without the Recipient’s written consent; and
- gives the Provider the information, authority, and assistance the Provider needs to defend against or settle the claim.
If the Provider believes or it is determined that any of the Material may have violated a third party’s intellectual property rights, the Provider may choose to either modify the Material to be non-infringing (while substantially preserving its utility or functionality) or obtain a license to allow for continued use, or if these alternatives are not commercially reasonable, the Provider may end the license for, and require return of, the applicable Material and refund any unused, prepaid fees the Recipient may have paid to the other party for such Material. If such return materially affects Cinch’s ability to meet its obligations under the relevant order, then Cinch may, at its option and upon 30 days prior written notice, terminate the order. The Provider will not indemnify the Recipient if the Recipient alters the Material or uses it outside the scope of use identified in the Provider’s user documentation or Services policies or if the Recipient uses a version of the Materials which has been superseded, if the infringement claim could have been avoided by using an unaltered current version of the Material which was provided to the Recipient. The Provider will not indemnify the Recipient to the extent that an infringement claim is based upon (i) any information, design, specification, instruction, software, data, or material not furnished by the Provider, or (ii) any Material from a third-party portal or other external source that is accessible to you within or from the Services (e.g., a third-party Web page accessed via a hyperlink). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Cinch will not indemnify you (A) to the extent that an infringement claim is based upon the combination of any Material with any products or services not provided by Cinch; (B) for infringement caused by your actions against any third party if the Services as delivered to you and used in accordance with these Terms would not otherwise infringe any third party intellectual property right; (C) for any infringement claim that is based on: (1) a patent that you were made aware of prior to the effective date of the Agreement (pursuant to a claim, demand, or notice); or (2) your actions prior to the effective date of the Agreement. This section provides the parties’ exclusive remedy for any infringement claims or damages.
XI. Support Services
Support services provided under the Agreement are specified in the Services policies referenced in the Subscription Document or other agreement with you.
XII. Term; Termination of Services
Services provided under the Agreement shall be provided for the period defined in the Subscription Document unless earlier terminated in accordance with these Terms. The term of the Services and any renewal years are collectively defined as the “Services Term.” If no Services Terms is specified in the Subscription Document, the Services Term is one (1) year and automatically renews for successive one-year terms unless terminated as provided herein. At the end of the Services Term, all rights to access or use the Services, including the Cinch Programs listed in the Subscription Document, shall end. If either party breaches a material term of the Agreement and fails to correct the breach within 30 days of written specification of the breach, then the breaching party is in default and the non-breaching party may terminate the applicable Subscription Document under which the breach occurred. If Cinch terminates the Subscription Document as specified in the preceding sentence, you must pay within 30 days all amounts which have accrued prior to such termination, as well as all sums remaining unpaid for the Services ordered under the Subscription Document plus related taxes and expenses. If Cinch terminates the Services under the Indemnification section, you must pay within 30 days all amounts remaining unpaid for Services plus related taxes and expenses. The nonbreaching party may agree in its sole discretion to extend the 30-day period for so long as the breaching party continues reasonable efforts to cure the breach. You agree that if you are in default under the Agreement, you may not use the Services ordered. In addition, Cinch may immediately suspend your password, account, and access to or use of the Services and any of your users’’ access to the Services (i) if you fail to pay Cinch as required under the Agreement and do not cure within the first ten days of the 30-day cure period, or (ii) if you violate any provision within sections III, IV, V, VI, or XVIII of the Agreement. Cinch may terminate the Services hereunder if any of the foregoing is not cured within 30 days after Cinch’s initial notice thereof. Any suspension by Cinch of the Services under this paragraph shall not excuse you from your obligation to make payment(s) under the Agreement. You agree and acknowledge that Cinch may store your data to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, that data related to transaction and payment history is owned jointly by you and your respective customers, and that the personal identifying information of your customers is owned exclusively by your respective customers. Provisions that survive termination or expiration of the Agreement are those relating to limitation of liability, infringement indemnity, payment, and others which by their nature are intended to survive.
XIII. Fees and Taxes
You agree to pay for all Services ordered as set forth in the applicable Subscription Document. All fees due under the Subscription Document are non-cancelable and the sums paid nonrefundable. You agree to pay any sales, value-added or other similar taxes imposed by applicable law that Cinch must pay based on the Services you ordered, except for taxes based on Cinch’s income. You will reimburse Cinch for reasonable expenses related to providing any on-site portion of the Services. Fees for Services listed in a Subscription Document are exclusive of taxes and expenses. All amounts invoiced hereunder are due and payable within 30 days of the date of the invoice. You agree that you have not relied on the future availability of any Services, Programs, or updates in entering into the payment obligations in the Subscription Document; however, the preceding does not relieve Cinch of its obligation to deliver Services that you have ordered per the Agreement.
If you attempt to use the Services in excess of your current Subscription Document (i.e. attempt to upload data for more customers than you are subscribed), you will be prompted to acknowledge such excess and you agree to pay for all fees associated with your use of the Services in excess of your Subscription Document limits.
When you sign up using a credit card or other payment method, you authorize us to make the charges disclosed to you at the time you sign up, including recurring payments, where applicable.

Cinch will protect the confidentiality of your data residing in the Services environment in accordance with the Cinch security practices. Nothing shall prevent either party from disclosing the terms or pricing under the Agreement in any legal proceeding arising from or in connection with the Agreement or from disclosing the Confidential Information to a governmental entity as required by law.

If any term of the Agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain effective and such term shall be replaced with a term consistent with the purpose and intent of the Agreement.
