For the purpose of clarity, no third-party may rely in any manner on the reports, results, recommendation work product provided by or generated through the Service, all work is provided for informational purposes solely for the benefit of the Subscriber. Subscriber rights to use the Service shall be limited to those expressly granted in this Agreement. All rights not expressly granted to Subscriber are retained by Wizpresso. The Service is protected by copyright laws, trade secrets, as well as laws and any applicable regulations and/or treaties related to other forms of intellectual property. Wizpresso owns, or has the necessary rights in, all intellectual property rights in the Service.
The Subscriber gives permission to Wizpresso to use, process, collect, copy, store, transmit, modify and create derivative works of Subscriber Data, in each case solely to the extent necessary to provide the applicable Service to Subscriber in accordance with this Agreement and for no other purpose whatsoever, for the duration of the Services period plus any additional post-termination period not exceeding 60 days, during which Wizpresso shall provide the Subscriber with access to retrieve an export file of Subscriber’s content. The license granted by Wizpresso in pursuant to this Agreement shall apply only for the number of users id’s, or usage capacity provided for pursuant to the associated Wizpresso Sales Quote, and shall only be valid for such time as the License term stated in the Wizpresso Sales Quote remains in full force and effect under this Agreement; in the event Subscriber terminates or otherwise discontinues their use of the hosted Wizpresso Cloud Service Environment with Wizpresso, this license and Subscriber’s right to use the Service shall terminate without further notice. Wizpresso shall make only such copies of the Subscriber Data as may be necessary to perform its obligations under this Agreement or otherwise as part of its regular internal backup and/or disaster recovery practices. Subscriber shall take reasonable steps, including limiting access to user IDs and passwords, to limit access to the Software to those of its employees who are authorized to use the Software.

In addition to any other rights afforded to Wizpresso under this Agreement, Wizpresso reserves the right, but has no obligation, to take remedial action if any material violates the foregoing restrictions, including the removal or disablement of access to such material. Wizpresso shall have no liability to the Subscriber in the event that Wizpresso takes such action. The Subscriber shall have sole responsibility for the accuracy, quality, integrity, legality, reliability, appropriateness and ownership of all of Subscriber Data.
1.4 Restrictions on Transfer, Use, Alteration and Copying. Subscriber may not, without Wizpresso’s prior written consent, conduct, cause or permit the:
Wizpresso shall have the right to terminate this Agreement with immediate effect by giving written notice to Subscriber in the event of any violation of this section if Subscriber fails to remedy that violation within ninety (90) days of written notice from Wizpresso.

Except for the purposes of training, translation, Subscriber’s internal backup, operational support or internal distribution, Subscriber may not copy or allow others to copy any part of the user documentation or other printed material provided with the Service. Users must only access Wizpresso Cloud Services through authorized channels and are prohibited from accessing the Software or recording any data from the Software with automated programs, software, or any other method of web or screen scraping.
1.5 Security. Wizpresso implements security procedures to help protect Subscriber Data from security attacks. However, subject to Wizpresso’s taking appropriate security measures, in accordance with practices that are generally accepted as best practices in the software industry reasonably expected from a leading service provider from time to time ("best industry practice"), to secure Subscriber data for transport, Subscriber understands that use of the Services necessarily involves the transmission of Subscriber Data over networks that are not owned, operated or controlled by Wizpresso, and we are not responsible for any of Subscriber Data lost, altered, intercepted or stored across such networks, except to the extent caused by Wizpresso’s negligence or willful misconduct or failure to implement such security measures. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Wizpresso acknowledges and confirms that it has in place and will maintain throughout the term of this Agreement appropriate technical and organizational measures in accordance with best industry practice to secure against the accidental, unauthorized or unlawful processing, destruction, loss, damage or disclosure of Subscriber Data and the output of the Services, and to ensure that unauthorized persons or parties do not have access to any equipment used to process such information or data. Wizpresso also agrees that it shall (i) scan the Services for any code or device which is designed or intended to impair the operation of any computer or database or prevent or hinder access to, or the operation of, any program or data, using detection software generally accepted in the industry, (ii) secure its computing environments according to generally accepted industry standards to ensure that the Software cannot be accessed by any unauthorized person or malicious software, and (iii) promptly remedy and notify Subscriber of any security breach of which it becomes aware or may reasonably suspect.
1.6 Indemnity by Subscriber. Subscriber shall bear sole responsibility for any information uploaded or supplied by Subscriber in connection with its use of the Service, including but not limited to ensuring that the use of the Service to store, process and transmit Subscriber Data is compliant with all applicable laws and regulations. IN NO EVENT SHALL WIZPRESSO BEAR ANY LIABILITY FOR THE USE OR LOSS OF ANY INFORMATION UPLOADED OR SUPPLIED BY SUBSCRIBER IN CONNECTION WITH USE OF THE SERVICE, UNLESS SUCH LOSS IS CAUSED BY WIZPRESSO’S NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT. Subscriber will defend, indemnify and hold harmless Wizpresso from and against any loss, cost, liability or damage, including attorneys’ fees, for which Wizpresso becomes liable arising from a claim brought by a third-party alleging that the use of Subscriber Data, or Subscriber’s use of the Services in breach of this Agreement, infringes or misappropriates the intellectual property rights of a third-party or violates applicable law. Wizpresso shall not be responsible or liable for the deletion, alteration, destruction, damage, loss or failure to store any Subscriber Data unless, and only to the extent that, such deletion, alteration, destruction, damage, loss or failure to store any Subscriber Data is directly or indirectly caused by Wizpresso’s action or inaction in breach of this Agreement.
1.7 Legal Compliance. Subscriber must ensure that Subscriber’s use of Services and all Subscriber Data is at all times compliant with applicable laws and regulations ("Laws") provided, however, that Subscriber’s failure to do so shall not be deemed a breach of the foregoing to the extent caused by the Services or Wizpresso. Subscriber represents and warrants that: (i) Subscriber has obtained all necessary rights, releases and permissions to provide all Subscriber Data to Wizpresso and to grant the rights granted to Wizpresso in this Agreement and (ii) Subscriber Data and its transfer to and use by Wizpresso as authorized by Subscriber under this Agreement do not violate any Laws (including without limitation those relating to export control and electronic communications) or rights of any third-party, including without limitation any intellectual property rights, rights of privacy, or rights of publicity, and any use, collection and disclosure authorized herein is not inconsistent with the terms of any applicable privacy policies. Other than its express obligations set forth in this Agreement or in the Wizpresso’s data policy, or which results or arises from its negligence or willful misconduct, Wizpresso assumes no responsibility or liability for Subscriber Data, and Subscriber shall be solely responsible for Subscriber Data and the consequences of using, disclosing, storing, or transmitting it. Wizpresso represents and warrants that Wizpresso has obtained all necessary rights to provide the Services. Wizpresso shall ensure that its provision of the Services is compliant at all times with all applicable laws and regulations.
1.8 Term of Service Period. The Services provided under this Agreement shall be provided for the Services period defined in the Wizpresso Sales Quote or the Wizpresso Reseller Sales Quote, unless earlier suspended or terminated in accordance with this Agreement.
1.9 Limited Warranty. Wizpresso represents and warrants to Subscriber, and shall ensure, that the Software and Service will operate in substantial compliance with the Wizpresso Software Service Description attached hereto as Attachment B. In the event of a breach, Subscriber will promptly notify Wizpresso of the non-conformity in writing and Wizpresso will use reasonable commercial efforts to repair the Service to operate in compliance with its Wizpresso Software Service Description and in compliance with the Service Level Agreement set forth in Attachment A. Subscriber’s exclusive remedy for breach of this warranty is for Wizpresso to correct or work around the reported malfunction upon request. If the malfunction persists in causing a material failure in Subscriber’s production instances of the Service, causing a failure to conform to the Wizpresso Software Service Description without correction or work-around thirty (30) days after written notice to Wizpresso of a warranty claim under this Section 1.9, then Subscriber may terminate without liability for the balance of the terminated Services and receive a refund for all pre-paid Services, not yet delivered, as their exclusive remedy. This refund is to be pro-rated in accordance with the remaining number of days of the then-current Services period under Section 1.8, applying the Fee for that Service period equally across each day of the relevant Service period. All limited warranties on the Service are granted only to Subscriber and are non-transferable. This remedy represents Wizpresso’s exclusive duty and Subscriber’s sole remedy even in the event that the remedy should fail in its essential purpose.
Wizpresso makes no warranty that the Software will meet Subscriber’s requirements or operate under Subscriber’s specific conditions of use. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Wizpresso makes no warranty that operation of the Service will be secure error-free, or free from interruption. EXCEPT AS EXPLICITLY PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT OR OTHERWISE AGREED TO IN WRITING BY WIZPRESSO, WIZPRESSO MAKES NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN FACT OR IN LAW, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OTHER THAN AS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT. SUBSCRIBER MUST DETERMINE WHETHER THE SERVICE SUFFICIENTLY MEETS SUBSCRIBER’S REQUIREMENTS FOR SECURITY AND UNINTERRUPTABILITY. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT ATTRIBUTABLE TO A BREACH OF WIZPRESSO’S SECURITY OR SERVICE LEVEL OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, SUBSCRIBER BEARS SOLE RESPONSIBILITY AND ALL LIABILITY FOR ANY LOSS INCURRED DUE TO FAILURE OF THE SERVICE TO MEET SUBSCRIBER’S REQUIREMENTS. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT ATTRIBUTABLE TO EITHER PARTY’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILFUL MISCONDUCT, OR SERVICE LEVEL OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, WIZPRESSO WILL NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE FOR THE LOSS OF DATA ON ANY SUBSCRIBER COMPUTER OR INFORMATION STORAGE DEVICE. IN ADDITION, SUBSCRIBER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT (A) THE SERVICE DOES NOT CONSTITUTE THE PROVISION OF LEGAL ADVICE OR SERVICES IN ANY MANNER; (B) THE SERVICE DOES NOT ENSURE SUBSCRIBER’S COMPLIANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE INDUSTRY REGULATIONS AND LAWS; AND (C) SUBSCRIBER IS SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ITS COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAWS RULES AND REGULATIONS.
1.10 Indemnity by Wizpresso. Wizpresso, excluding actions based upon Subscriber Data or Third-Party Data, shall defend Subscriber, at Wizpresso’s expense, against any claims, demands, suits or proceedings ("Claims") made or brought against Subscriber by a third-party alleging that the use of the Service as contemplated hereunder, infringe a patent, copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property right of a third-party or misappropriates such third-party’s trade secrets. Further, Wizpresso shall indemnify and hold Subscriber harmless against all costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) to the extent arising out of or in connection with such Claims. Upon receiving notice of a Claim, Subscriber shall (a) give Wizpresso prompt written notice of the Claim; (b) give Wizpresso sole control of the defense and settlement of the Claim (provided that Wizpresso may not settle or defend any claim unless it unconditionally releases Subscriber of all liability and does not attribute any blame or contributory fault to Subscriber); and (c) provide to Wizpresso, at Wizpresso’s cost, all reasonable assistance in the defense or settlement of such Claim. In addition to Wizpresso’s obligations above, Wizpresso may, at its expense: (a) secure the right for Subscriber to continue to use the Software, (b) modify the Software so as to make it non-infringing, or (c) provide Subscriber with a functional non-infringing replacement. If none of these alternatives is commercially practicable, Subscriber will have the option to return the Software to Wizpresso, and Wizpresso will refund for all pre-paid Services, not yet delivered, as their exclusive remedy. This refund is to be pro-rated in accordance with the remaining number of days of the then-current Services period under Section 1.8. This Section 1.9 states Wizpresso's entire liability and Subscriber's exclusive remedy for any claim of intellectual property infringement under this Agreement.
II. GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

In any future subscription term, no refunds or credits for subscription charges or other fees or payments will be provided to Subscriber if Subscriber elects to downgrade their Service Plan.
2.3 Equitable Relief. Subscriber acknowledges that any use or disclosure of the Software in a manner inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, or breach of confidentiality may cause Wizpresso or the Wizpresso Reseller irreparable damage for which other remedies may be inadequate, and Subscriber agrees not to oppose any request to a court of competent jurisdiction by Wizpresso or the Wizpresso Reseller for injunctive or other equitable relief seeking to restrain such use or disclosure. Subscriber waives any right it may have to require Wizpresso or the Wizpresso Reseller to post a bond or other form of security as a precondition to any such injunctive relief.

This section shall not affect any other confidential disclosure agreement between the parties. The parties agree that upon the termination or expiration of this Agreement, they will promptly return or destroy any Confidential Information received upon request.
2.6 Limitation of Liability.

LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES WILL BE LIMITED AND EXCLUDED, EVEN IF ANY EXCLUSIVE REMEDY PROVIDED ABOVE FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
2.7 Background Checks. Wizpresso’s employees and subcontractors with access to Subscriber Data must pass a background check, which can be performed by Wizpresso or by a contractor that is authorized by Wizpresso to perform background checks.

Background screenings pursuant to this section must be updated at least every seven (7) years. Background screenings under this section 2.7 will be conducted in accordance with applicable local and international laws and at a minimum shall include the following:

2.1 "Actual Uptime" means the aggregate amount of time within Scheduled Uptime when Services are available for normal business use by Subscriber or users, as applicable (i.e., Actual Uptime = Scheduled Uptime – Outage). Services are available for normal business if they can be used in accordance with their intended functionality.
2.2 "Availability" means the Actual Uptime expressed as a percentage of the Scheduled Uptime (i.e., Availability % = Actual Uptime/Scheduled Uptime x 100%).
2.3 "Average Resource Usage" means the average utilization rate of CPU, Disk I/O, and Network I/O over a rolling six (6) hour period.
2.4 "Monthly Charge" means the amount Wizpresso invoices Subscriber for the Services for a given month; where Wizpresso has quotes fees based upon a longer-term the Monthly Charge will be calculated as the monthly pro-rata amount of the longer-term quoted.
2.5 "Outage" means any interruption of five (5) minutes or more during which ten percent (10%) or more of Subscriber or users are unable to access the System or their access to the System is substantially impaired (including through significant logon delay).
2.6 "Service Level Default" means an occurrence of Wizpresso’s failure to meet any Service Level.
2.7 "Scheduled Uptime" means the period of time (days of the week and hours per day) the Services are expected to be available to Subscriber for normal business use. Scheduled Uptime excludes maintenance windows for the Services.
3. SERVICE LEVEL PROCESS
3.1 Reevaluation of Service Levels. Section 5.1 of this Attachment A identifies the Service Levels that apply during the Term, subject to the following:
3.2 Additions/Modifications to Service Levels. The Parties will cooperate to identify additional Service Levels in furtherance of the objective of having a comprehensive set of Service Levels that provide a fair, accurate, and consistent measurement of Wizpresso’s performance of the Services. In response to changes in Subscriber’s business needs or to reflect changes in or evolution of the Services, Subscriber and Wizpresso will, at least once per year, review and assess any changes and agree to add or substitute new Service Levels to meet such objective(s) as may be redefined from time to time during the Term.
3.3 Service Levels. Wizpresso must meet or exceed the Service Levels described in this Attachment A, including Section 5.1.
4. SYSTEM PERFORMANCE
4.1 System Availability and Performance. Wizpresso must maintain the availability and performance of the System to meet or exceed the Service Levels set forth in Section 5.1.
4.2 System Capacity. Wizpresso must provide sufficient hosting capacity to target the Service Levels, availability and performance objectives in Section 5.1. Subscriber will work with Wizpresso to forecast and anticipate unexpected increases in Software usage due to any unusual events that could change the rate of System usage typically observed in normal site operation.
4.3 Response Time. Wizpresso must manage equipment, bandwidth, and network response times to target Service Levels and performance objectives stated in Section 5.1.
5. Service Level Default Credits. For Subscribers with recurring monthly or annual charges, the SLA credits are calculated as a % of the Monthly Charge owed by Subscriber for the month during which the Service Level Default occurs. For on-demand subscribers, the SLA credits are calculated as a % of the total permissible term in days of the Subscription. Where Wizpresso fails to attain the 99.8% service level, rather than the Service Credit set forth above Subscriber may elect to demand a pro-rata refund based upon the number of days that Wizpresso failed to attain the 99.8% service level and the refund will be determined on a pro-rata basis using the annual Service Subscription fee stated in the Wizpresso Sales Quote. The refund will be paid at the end of the calendar quarter; this represents Wizpresso’s sole liability for that Service level breach and Subscriber’s sole remedy.
5.1 SERVICE LEVELS
I. SERVICE LEVEL: SYSTEM AVAILABILITY AND PERFORMANCE.
Wizpresso will provide the Software 24 hours per day, 365 days per year with an Availability of 99.8%, excluding scheduled maintenance, which will not be performed during Subscriber’s normal business hours of operation. Wizpresso will provide Subscriber with its maintenance schedule and will notify Subscriber in advance of any non-scheduled maintenance. Wizpresso will ensure Average Resource Usage, a measure of system performance, will not reach 80% or higher for an extended period of time. Wizpresso will use its best reasonable efforts to schedule the abovementioned events at times when the Software is least likely to be in use.
II. SERVICE LEVEL: MONITORING AND RESPONSE TIME.
Wizpresso will respond to and resolve Software faults based on the severity levels detailed below. The time clock will restart any time a severity level is changed. "Response" means the time Wizpresso takes from its receipt of a problem report until it begins work to resolve the problem. “Target Response” means an estimated amount of time to provide a workaround or other resolution.
Severity Level | Description | Target Response |
---|---|---|
Critical | Software is not available for use or a significant proportion of the contracted functionalities is not available. | 1-8 hours |
Urgent | One or more elements of the Software critical to the functioning of the customer’s business has/have ceased to function | Within 24 hours |
Important | Potential for performance impact if not addressed | Within 5 business days |
Informational | Minor issues that do not prohibit users from utilizing the Software | Within 10 business days |
III. SERVICE LEVEL: SECURITY.
A. Physical and Technical Security. Wizpresso will provide appropriate and adequate physical and technical security for the Software, including, but without limitation, the following:
B. Security Event Notification. If either Wizpresso or Subscriber discovers or is notified of a breach or potential breach of security relating to the Subscriber Data ("Event"), (i) such party shall notify the other party of such breach or potential breach, and (ii) if the applicable Subscriber Data was in the possession of Wizpresso or its subcontractors at the time of such breach or potential breach, Wizpresso shall promptly (A) investigate and remediate the effects of the breach or potential breach, (B) provide Subscriber with information related to the breach or potential breach and coordinate with Subscriber while conducting the investigation; (ii) Wizpresso agrees to reasonably cooperate with Subscriber to the extent Subscriber determines it is necessary to conduct its own investigation; and (iii) provide Subscriber with assurance reasonably satisfactory to Subscriber that such breach or potential breach has been remediated. Wizpresso will cooperate fully with Subscriber regarding any notification for impacted individuals.
C. Wizpresso will implement a comprehensive backup and recovery process. More specifically, snapshots of the data ("Snapshots") will be performed every 24 hours, those Snapshots will be stored for 14 days.

Modern slavery is a crime and a violation of fundamental human rights. It takes various forms, such as slavery, servitude, forced and compulsory labor and human trafficking, all of which have in common the deprivation of a person’s liberty by another in order to exploit them for personal or commercial gain.
Wizpresso has a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery, and we are committed to acting ethically and with integrity in all our business dealings and relationships and to implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to ensure modern slavery is not taking place anywhere in our own business or in any of our supply chains.
We are also committed to ensuring there is transparency in our own business and in our approach to tackling modern slavery throughout our supply chains, consistent with our disclosure obligations under the Modern Slavery Act 2015.
We expect the same high standards from all of our contractors, suppliers and other business partners, and as part of our contracting processes, in the coming year we will include specific prohibitions against the use of forced, compulsory or trafficked labor, or anyone held in slavery or servitude, whether adults or children, and we expect that our suppliers will hold their own suppliers to the same high standards.
This policy applies to all persons working for us or on our behalf in any capacity, including employees at all levels, directors, officers, agency workers, seconded workers, volunteers, interns, agents, contractors, external consultants, third-party representatives and business partners.
This policy does not form part of any employee’s contract of employment and we may amend it at any time.
The Company has overall responsibility for ensuring this policy complies with our legal and ethical obligations, and that all those under our control comply with it.
The Company has primary and day-to-day responsibility for implementing this policy, monitoring its use and effectiveness, dealing with any queries about it, and auditing internal control systems and procedures to ensure they are effective in countering modern slavery.
Management at all levels are responsible for ensuring those reporting to them understand and comply with this policy and are given adequate and regular training on it and the issue of modern slavery in supply chains.
You are invited to comment on this policy and suggest ways in which it might be improved. Comments, suggestions and queries are encouraged and should be addressed to senior management.
You must ensure that you read, understand and comply with this policy. The prevention, detection and reporting of modern slavery in any part of our business or supply chains is the responsibility of all those working for us or under our control.
You are required to avoid any activity that might lead to, or suggest, a breach of this policy.
You must notify your line manager OR senior management as soon as possible if you believe or suspect that a conflict with this policy has occurred or may occur in the future.
You are encouraged to raise concerns about any issue or suspicion of modern slavery in any parts of our business or supply chains of any supplier tier at the earliest possible stage.
If you believe or suspect a breach of this policy has occurred or that it may occur, you must notify your line manager or senior management.
You should note that where appropriate, and with the welfare and safety of local staff as a priority, we will give support and guidance to our suppliers to help them address coercive, abusive and exploitative work practices in their own business and supply chains.
If you are unsure about whether a particular act, the treatment of staff more generally, or their working conditions within any tier of our supply chains constitutes any of the various forms of modern slavery, raise it with your line manager or senior management.
We aim to encourage openness and will support anyone who raises genuine concerns in good faith under this policy, even if they turn out to be mistaken. We are committed to ensuring no one suffers any detrimental treatment as a result of reporting in good faith their suspicion that modern slavery of whatever form is or may be taking place in any part of our own business or in any of our supply chains.
Detrimental treatment includes dismissal, disciplinary action, threats or other unfavorable treatment connected with raising a concern.
If you believe that you have suffered any such treatment, you should inform your line manager or senior management immediately. If the matter is not remedied, and you are an employee, you should raise it formally using our Grievance Procedure, which can be found in the current employee handbook.
Training on this policy, and on the risk our business faces from modern slavery in its supply chains, forms part of the induction process for all individuals who work for us, and updates will be provided using established methods of communication between the business and you.
Our zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery must be communicated to all suppliers, contractors and business partners at the outset of our business relationship with them and reinforced as appropriate thereafter.
Any employee who breaches this policy will face disciplinary action, which could result in dismissal for misconduct or gross misconduct. We may terminate our relationship with other individuals and organizations working on our behalf if they breach this policy.
