2. CLIENT RESPONSIBILITIES:
- CLIENT will select and upload metadata for products to the Platform in a format mutually agreed upon by the Parties (each such instance of metadata for a product referred to herein as a "Title”).

As used in this Agreement, the term "person" means an individual, corporation, limited liability company, business trust, estate, trust, partnership, association, joint venture, government, or any other legal, commercial or governmental entity. Without limiting FIREBRAND's other rights and remedies, if CLIENT violates this Section 2(c), FIREBRAND may immediately terminate this Agreement and CLIENT’s account and take appropriate legal action including, without limitation, referral to law enforcement for any illegal use of the Platform or other illegal activity. Furthermore, without limiting FIREBRAND’s other rights and remedies, if FIREBRAND reasonably suspects CLIENT is in violation of this Section 2(c), FIREBRAND may immediately temporarily suspend CLIENT’s account or CLIENT’s or any of its authorized users’ access to any portion or all of the Platform, pending further investigation by FIREBRAND.
- CLIENT shall be responsible for the content uploaded by CLIENT or uploaded on CLIENT’s behalf to the Platform. Without limiting FIREBRAND's other rights and remedies, FIREBRAND has the right to remove any content uploaded or otherwise provided by CLIENT if such content violates any person's intellectual property rights, privacy rights, or other legal rights.
- CLIENT is responsible and liable for all uses of the Platform resulting from access provided by CLIENT, directly or indirectly, whether such access or use is permitted by or in violation of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, CLIENT is responsible for all acts and omissions of CLIENT’s authorized users, and any act or omission by an authorized user of CLIENT that would constitute a breach of this Agreement if taken by CLIENT will be deemed a breach of this Agreement by CLIENT. CLIENT shall use reasonable efforts to make all its authorized users aware of this Agreement's provisions as applicable to such authorized user's use of the Platform and shall cause its authorized users to comply with such provisions.
- CLIENT hereby grants to FIREBRAND a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to reproduce, distribute, and otherwise use and display the Client Data (as defined below) and perform all acts with respect to the Client Data as may be necessary for FIREBRAND to provide the Platform and related services to CLIENT. CLIENT will ensure that Client Data and any CLIENT authorized user's use of Client Data will not violate any policy or terms referenced in or incorporated into this Agreement or any applicable law. As used in this Agreement, the term “Client Data” means the Titles and any other content or data uploaded by CLIENT or on CLIENT’s behalf to the Platform.
- Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, FIREBRAND may monitor CLIENT's use of the Platform and collect and compile data and information related to CLIENT's use of the Platform to be used by FIREBRAND in an aggregated manner, including to compile statistical, usage and performance information related to the provision and operation of the Platform and related services ("Aggregated Statistics"). As between FIREBRAND and CLIENT, all right, title, and interest in Aggregated Statistics, and all intellectual property rights therein, belong to and are retained solely by FIREBRAND. CLIENT acknowledges that FIREBRAND may compile Aggregated Statistics based on Client Data input into the Platform. CLIENT agrees that FIREBRAND may use Aggregated Statistics to the extent and in the manner permitted under applicable law.
3. DATA COLLECTION DISCLAIMERS AND FEEDBACK:
- Some functions of the Platform are dependent on data provided by third parties, such as from reseller application programming interfaces (or “APIs”) as well as data collected by other means from other third party sources. The Platform can only process and analyze data that is available from such third party sources. Therefore, FIREBRAND is entitled to suspend, reduce, or otherwise modify certain aspects or functionality of the Platform from time to time if reasonably required to do so given the status of availability of data from third party sources. If such a suspension, reduction, or modification of aspects or functionality of the Platform materially impairs the CLIENT’s use of the Platform, CLIENT may, and its sole remedy shall be the right to, terminate this Agreement and its subscription upon 30 days’ written notice to FIREBRAND.
- While FIREBRAND makes reasonable efforts to collect data from all relevant and available third party sites on a prescribed schedule, there are instances where this is not reasonably possible for various reasons, such as, for example, such site(s) may be changed without notice. FIREBRAND makes no representations or warranties regarding the frequency of data collection or ability to collect data from any site.
- FIREBRAND proactively monitors data collections and makes Platform adjustments when needed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, CLIENT acknowledges that there are many factors and circumstances related to data collection from third party sources beyond FIREBRAND’s reasonable control, to which FIREBRAND can only react after FIREBRAND becomes aware of such factors or circumstances. The Parties agree that FIREBRAND will not be liable for any problems, damages, claims or other issues related to data collection from third party sources outside of FIREBRAND’s reasonable control. CLIENT may be more likely to discover some issues before FIREBRAND and, as such, FIREBRAND relies on clients to report any problems, such as if data is not displayed or showing up correctly in the Platform, by using the “Send Us Feedback” button available on the bottom of every page in the Platform. As such, promptly upon discovery, CLIENT agrees to notify FIREBRAND of any problems or other issues with the Platform via the “Send Us Feedback” button. The FIREBRAND team monitors and responds to such feedback submissions and is able to correct certain issues quickly. However, FIREBRAND makes no representations or warranties regarding whether or not or the speed at which issues or problems may be resolved.
- If CLIENT or any of its authorized users sends or transmits any communications or materials to FIREBRAND via the “Send Us Feedback” button or by mail, email, telephone, or otherwise, suggesting or recommending changes to the Platform or FIREBRAND’s services, including without limitation, new features or functionality relating thereto, or any comments, questions, suggestions, or the like ("Feedback"), FIREBRAND is free to use such Feedback irrespective of any other obligation or limitation between FIREBRAND and CLIENT governing such Feedback. All Feedback is and will be treated as non-confidential. CLIENT hereby assigns to FIREBRAND all right, title, and interest in, and FIREBRAND is free to use, without any attribution or compensation to CLIENT or any third party, any ideas, know-how, concepts, techniques, or other intellectual property rights contained in the Feedback, for any purpose whatsoever, although FIREBRAND is not required to use any Feedback.
4. SECURITY AND PERSONAL INFORMATION:
- FIREBRAND will maintain Title data uploaded to the Platform in a database with reasonable security measures implemented that are appropriate to the nature of the data. CLIENT may remove Titles from the Platform and, when a Title is removed, all data related to that Title will be deleted from the database within 30 calendar days. CLIENT is responsible for keeping its passwords and access credentials associated with the Platform confidential.
- FIREBRAND shall notify CLIENT, within a commercially reasonable period of time, of any materially significant breaches that occur or of any materially significant vulnerabilities in its internal security system of which FIREBRAND becomes aware, and which relate to the Titles. If FIREBRAND becomes aware of any unauthorized or improper use of Client Data”, including without limitation the unauthorized downloading or sharing of Titles by a third party, FIREBRAND shall, within a commercially reasonable period, (a) notify CLIENT of such unauthorized or improper use, and (b) take commercially reasonable steps to halt such unauthorized or improper use.
- CLIENT shall be responsible for complying with all applicable laws related to the protection, privacy, and legal use of personal information (as defined below), if any, included in Client Data. CLIENT represents and warrants that it has obtained and agrees it will continue to obtain all necessary rights and consents under applicable laws to disclose or otherwise process personal information, if any, included in Client Data. As used in this section, “personal information” means information that identifies, relates to, describes, references, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular individual.
- FIREBRAND complies with its privacy policy, available at firebrandtech.com/privacy-policy/ ("Privacy Policy"), in providing the Platform. The Privacy Policy is subject to change as described therein. By accessing, using, and providing information to or through the Platform, CLIENT acknowledges that it and its authorized users have reviewed and accepted FIREBRAND’s Privacy Policy, and CLIENT and its authorized users consent to all actions taken by FIREBRAND with respect to CLIENT’s and its authorized users’ information in compliance with the then-current version of FIREBRAND’s Privacy Policy.
5. TERM AND TERMINATION:
- The initial term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue for one (1) year (the “Initial Term”). Thereafter, this Agreement shall automatically renew in one (1) year increments unless earlier terminated pursuant to this Agreement’s express provisions or either Party gives the other Party written notice of non-renewal at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the then-current term (each a “Renewal Term” and together with the Initial Term, the “Term”).
- During the Term, either Party may terminate this Agreement at any time for any reason or no reason by providing at least thirty (30) days written notice to the other Party.
- Either Party may terminate this Agreement, effective on written notice to the other Party, if the other Party materially breaches this Agreement, and such breach: (i) is incapable of cure; or (ii) being capable of cure, remains uncured thirty (30) days after the non-breaching Party provides the breaching Party with written notice of such breach.

- Upon expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement, CLIENT shall immediately discontinue use of the Platform and related services. No expiration or termination will affect CLIENT’s obligation to pay all fees or other charges that may have become due before such expiration or termination, or entitle CLIENT to any refund.
- This Section 5(f), Sections 1(d), 3(d), 6, 8, 9, 11, and 12, and any right, obligation, or required performance of the Parties in this Agreement which, by its express terms or nature and context is intended to survive termination or expiration of this Agreement, will survive any such termination or expiration.
6. FEES AND PAYMENT:
- CLIENT shall pay FIREBRAND, by credit card payment or by ACH transfer pursuant to instructions provided by Firebrand, the applicable fees and any other amounts pursuant to and as described on the FIREBRAND pricing page at https://eloquenceonalert.com/registration/plan and any applicable invoices (“Fees”) within thirty (30) days from the invoice date (unless otherwise specified or mutually agreed to by the Parties) without offset or deduction. All Fees payable by CLIENT under this Agreement shall be made in US dollars and are exclusive of taxes and similar assessments. CLIENT is responsible for all sales, use, and excise taxes, and any other similar taxes, duties, and charges of any kind imposed by any federal, state, or local governmental or regulatory authority on any amounts payable by CLIENT hereunder, other than any taxes imposed on FIREBRAND's income.
- In the event Fees are paid via automatic payments, CLIENT authorizes FIREBRAND or FIREBRAND’s authorized payment processing service provider(s) to store CLIENT’s credit card information or other payment method and use it in connection with CLIENT’s payment of Fees. CLIENT authorizes FIREBRAND or FIREBRAND’s authorized payment processing service provider(s) to continue billing and charging CLIENT’s account for amounts owed.
- FIREBRAND may increase the Fees in any Renewal Term by giving CLIENT at least sixty (60) days’ notice by email prior to the increase, subject to CLIENT's rights of termination and non-renewal set forth in Section 5 above.
- All Fees paid under this Agreement are nonrefundable.
7. RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES:
The relationship between the Parties is that of independent contractors. The Parties of this Agreement recognize that the Agreement does not create any agency, partnership, joint venture, relationship of employer/employee, or other form of joint enterprise, employment, or fiduciary relationship between the Parties. Neither Party is authorized to enter into or to commit the other into any agreements, nor shall either Party represent itself as the agent or legal representative of the other.
8. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION:
From time to time during the Term, FIREBRAND and CLIENT may disclose or make available to the other Party information about its business affairs, products, confidential intellectual property, trade secrets, third-party confidential information, and other sensitive or proprietary information, whether orally or in written, electronic, or other form or media and whether or not marked, designated, or otherwise identified as "confidential" at the time of disclosure (collectively, "Confidential Information"). Confidential Information does not include information that, at the time of disclosure is: (a) in the public domain; (b) known to the receiving Party; (c) rightfully obtained by the receiving Party on a non-confidential basis from a third party; or (d) independently developed by the receiving Party. The receiving Party shall not disclose the disclosing Party's Confidential Information to any person or entity, except to the receiving Party's employees, agents, service providers or subcontractors who have a need to know the Confidential Information for the receiving Party to exercise its rights or perform its obligations hereunder and who are required to protect the Confidential Information in a manner no less stringent than required under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party may disclose Confidential Information to the limited extent required (i) to comply with an order of a court or other governmental body, or as otherwise necessary to comply with applicable law, provided that the Party making the disclosure pursuant to the order shall first have given written notice to the other Party and made a reasonable effort to obtain a protective order; or (ii) to establish or enforce a Party's rights under this Agreement, including to make required court filings. Each Party's obligations of non-disclosure with regard to Confidential Information are effective as of the date such Confidential Information is first disclosed to the receiving Party and will expire five years thereafter; provided, however, with respect to any Confidential Information that constitutes a trade secret (as determined under applicable law), such obligations of non-disclosure will survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement for as long as such Confidential Information remains subject to trade secret protection under applicable law.
9. INDEMNIFICATION:
CLIENT shall indemnify, hold harmless, and, at FIREBRAND's option, defend FIREBRAND and FIREBRAND's officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, successors, and assigns from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, claims, actions, judgments, settlements, interest, awards, penalties, fines, costs, or expenses of whatever kind, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising from or relating to any third-party claim, suit, action, or proceeding ("Third-Party Claim") (a) that the Client Data, or any use of the Client Data in accordance with this Agreement, infringes or misappropriates such third party's intellectual property rights; (b) arising out of or related to CLIENT’s breach of this Agreement; or (c) based on CLIENT's or any CLIENT authorized user's negligence or willful misconduct or use of the Platform in a manner not authorized by this Agreement; provided that CLIENT may not settle any Third-Party Claim against FIREBRAND unless FIREBRAND consents to such settlement, and further provided that FIREBRAND will have the right, at its option, to defend itself against any such Third-Party Claim or to participate in the defense thereof by counsel of its own choice.
