  • Confidentiality
  • Confidential Information. During the term of this Agreement, each party (the “Disclosing Party”) may provide the other party (the “Receiving Party”) with certain information regarding the Disclosing Party’s business, technology, products, or services or other confidential or proprietary information (collectively, “Confidential Information”).

In addition, the Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information to the extent that such disclosure is necessary for the Receiving Party to enforce its rights under this Agreement or is required by law or by the order of a court of similar judicial or administrative body, provided that the Receiving Party promptly notifies the Disclosing Party in writing of such required disclosure and cooperates with the Disclosing Party if the Disclosing Party seeks an appropriate protective order.
  • Indemnification
  • By Judo. Judo will defend at its expense any suit brought against Subscriber, and will pay any settlement Judo makes or approves, or any damages finally awarded in such suit, insofar as such suit is based on a claim by any third party alleging that the Judo Service or Judo System infringes, misappropriates or violates any U.S. Intellectual Property Rights. If any portion of the Judo Service or Judo System becomes, or in Judo’s opinion is likely to become, the subject of a claim of infringement, Judo may, at Judo’s option: (a) procure for Subscriber the right to continue using the Judo Service or Judo System; (b) replace the Judo Service or Judo System with non-infringing software or services which do not materially impair the functionality of the Judo Service or Judo System; (c) modify the Judo Service or Judo System so that it becomes non-infringing; or (d) terminate this Agreement and refund any fees actually paid by Subscriber to Judo for the remainder of the term then in effect, and upon such termination, Subscriber will immediately cease all use of the Judo Service, Judo System, and Documentation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Judo shall have no obligation under this section or otherwise with respect to any infringement claim based upon (w) any use of the Judo Service or Judo System not in accordance with this Agreement or as specified in the Documentation; (x) any use of the Judo Service or Judo System in combination with other products, equipment, software or data not supplied by Judo; or (y) any modification of the Judo Service or Judo System by any person other than Judo or its authorized agents.

The indemnifying party’s obligations as set forth above are expressly conditioned upon each of the foregoing: (a) the indemnified party shall promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of any threatened or actual claim or suit; (b) the indemnifying party shall have sole control of the defense or settlement of any claim or suit; and (c) the indemnified party shall cooperate with the indemnifying party to facilitate the settlement or defense of any claim or suit.
  • Term And Termination
  • Term. This Agreement commences on the Effective Date and remains in effect until all Order Forms have expired or been terminated. Unless otherwise set forth in the Order Form: (a) each Order Form will have a term of one (1) year; and (b) each Order Form shall be automatically renewed for consecutive one (1) year terms unless either party provides written notice to the other of its intention not to renew at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the then-current term.
  • Termination. Either party may terminate this Agreement immediately upon notice to the other party if the other party materially breaches this Agreement, and such breach remains uncured more than thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice of such breach.
  • Effect of Termination.

Subscriber is solely responsible for maintaining an up-to-date email address with Judo.
  • Governing Law and Venue. This Agreement and any action related thereto will be governed and interpreted by and under the laws of the State of Washington, without giving effect to any conflicts of laws principles that require the application of the law of a different jurisdiction. Subscriber hereby expressly consents to the personal jurisdiction and venue in the state and federal courts for the county in which Judo’s principal place of business is located for any lawsuit filed there against Subscriber by Judo arising from or related to this Agreement. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to this Agreement.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Subscriber agrees that the section titled Limitation of Liability will remain in effect notwithstanding the unenforceability of any provision in the subsection titled Limited Warranty.

  • Remedies. Except as provided in the sections titled Limited Warranty and Indemnification, the parties’ rights and remedies under this Agreement are cumulative. Subscriber acknowledges that the Judo Service, Judo System or Documentation contain valuable trade secrets and proprietary information of Judo, that any actual or threatened breach of the sections titled Intellectual Property or Confidentiality or any other breach by Subscriber of its obligations with respect to Intellectual Property Rights of Judo will constitute immediate, irreparable harm to Judo for which monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy. In such case, Judo will be entitled to immediate injunctive relief without the requirement of posting bond, including an order that any software, Documentation, or any portions thereof, that Subscriber attempts to import into any country or territory be seized, impounded and destroyed by customs officials. If any legal action is brought to enforce this Agreement, the prevailing party will be entitled to receive its attorneys’ fees, court costs, and other collection expenses, in addition to any other relief it may receive.

Neither party shall assign, subcontract, delegate, or otherwise transfer this Agreement, or its rights and obligations herein, without obtaining the prior written consent of the other party, and any attempted assignment, subcontract, delegation, or transfer in violation of the foregoing will be null and void; provided, however, that either party may assign this Agreement in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization or sale of all or substantially all of its assets, or other operation of law, without the consent of the other party. The terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
  • Force Majeure. Any delay in the performance of any duties or obligations of either party will not be considered a breach of this Agreement if such delay is caused by a labor dispute, shortage of materials, fire, earthquake, flood, or any other event beyond the control of such party, provided that such party uses reasonable efforts, under the circumstances, to notify the other party of the cause of such delay and to resume performance as soon as possible.
  • Independent Contractors. Subscriber’s relationship to Judo is that of an independent contractor, and neither party is an agent or partner of the other. Subscriber will not have, and will not represent to any third party that it has, any authority to act on behalf of Judo.
  • Notices. Each party must deliver all notices or other communications required or permitted under this Agreement in writing to the other party at the address listed on the first page of the Agreement by courier, by certified or registered mail (postage prepaid and return receipt requested), or by a nationally-recognized express mail service. Notice will be effective upon receipt or refusal of delivery. If delivered by certified or registered mail, any such notice will be considered to have been given five (5) business days after it was mailed, as evidenced by the postmark. If delivered by courier or express mail service, any such notice shall be considered to have been given on the delivery date reflected by the courier or express mail service receipt. Each party may change its address for receipt of notice by giving notice of such change to the other party.
  • Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which shall be taken together and deemed to be one instrument.
  • Entire Agreement. This Agreement is the final, complete and exclusive agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matters hereof and supersedes and merges all prior discussions between the parties with respect to such subject matters. No waiver of any rights under this Agreement, will be effective unless in writing and signed by an authorized signatory of Subscriber and the Judo.
