We may use any aggregated, non-personally identifiable information, data and reports for any purpose. You and your Users may choose to integrate the Services with other third-party services (e.g., Slack, Zoom or Gmail).

For purposes of these Terms, an “Affiliate” is any entity which directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the subject entity (where “control” means direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 50% of the voting interests of the subject entity).

We will ensure that subprocessors are bound by written agreements that require them to provide at least the level of data protection required of us by this Agreement and we shall remain liable to you for the performance of any subprocessors. Upon request, we will provide you with a list of the subprocessors we engage and you may terminate this Agreement if you do not approve of any subprocessor.
2.2.2 Data Transfers.
We may transfer Your Data to, or store or access it in, the United States in order to provide our Services, and will perform the transfer in accordance with an approved data transfer mechanism.

5.1 Definition.
“Confidential Information” means all confidential information disclosed by a party (“Disclosing Party“) to the other party (“Receiving Party“), whether orally or in writing, that is designated as confidential or that reasonably should be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information and the circumstances under which it was disclosed. Your Confidential Information will include Your Data; our Confidential Information will include the Services; and Confidential Information of each party will include the terms and conditions of this Agreement and all Order Forms, as well as business and marketing plans, technology and technical information, product plans and designs, and business processes disclosed by such party.

Except as expressly authorized by the Disclosing Party in writing, the Receiving Party will limit access to Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to employees, contractors and agents of the Receiving Party and its Affiliates who need such access for purposes consistent with this Agreement and who have signed a confidentiality agreement with the Receiving Party containing provisions no less stringent than those herein. For the avoidance of doubt, You Data is your Confidential Information.

We will indemnify you from the resulting costs and damages finally awarded against you to that third party by a court of competent jurisdiction or agreed to in settlement provided that You (a) give us prompt, written notice of Your Covered Claim, (b) permit us to control the defense and settlement of Your Covered Claim (provided that we may not settle Your Covered Claim unless the settlement unconditionally releases you of any liability), and (c) cooperate with us and provide all reasonable assistance in the defense and settlement of Your Covered Claim (at no out of pocket expense to you). Notwithstanding the foregoing, we assume no liability or responsibility for infringement, violation or misappropriation resulting from use, operation or combination of the Services with any product or service not provided by us (including Your Data) or resulting from modification or unauthorized use of the Services. In the event of Your Covered Claim or if we reasonably believe that the Services may infringe or misappropriate any third party intellectual property rights, we may in our discretion and at no cost to you (x) modify the Services to remediate any actual or alleged infringement or misappropriation, provided such modified Services have substantially the same functionality, (y) obtain a license for your continued use of the Services in accordance with the applicable Order Form, or (z) terminate your subscription for such Services upon thirty (30) days written notice and refund to you any prepaid fees covering the remainder of the term of such subscriptions after the effective date of termination.

9.3 Exclusive Remedy.This Section 9 states the indemnifying party’s sole liability to, and the indemnified party’s exclusive remedy against, the other party for any infringement or alleged infringement of any third party claims.
With the exception only of disputes related to the enforcement or validity of our intellectual property rights, all disputes, controversies or claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Services, will be resolved through confidential binding arbitration held in Westport, Connecticut in accordance with the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“Rules“) of the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS“), which are available on the JAMS website and hereby incorporated by reference. You acknowledge and agree that you have read and understand the rules of JAMS or waived your opportunity to read such rules and further waive any claim that such rules are unfair or should not apply for any reason.
You agree that any dispute arising out of or related to this Agreement or the Services is personal to you and us and that any dispute will be resolved solely through individual arbitration and will not be brought as a class arbitration, class action or any other type of representative proceeding. You agree that this Agreement involves matters affecting interstate commerce and that the enforceability of this Section 10 will be substantively and procedurally governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq. (the “FAA“), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. As limited by the FAA, this Agreement and the JAMS Rules, the arbitrator will have exclusive authority to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding any dispute and to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court; provided, however, that the arbitrator does not have the authority to conduct a class arbitration or a representative action, which is prohibited by this Agreement. The arbitrator may only conduct an individual arbitration and may not consolidate more than one individual’s claims, preside over any type of class or representative proceeding or preside over any proceeding involving more than one individual. You agree that for any arbitration, the party filing the claim will pay the filing fee and the parties will split the remaining JAMS fees and costs equally. Judgment upon any arbitration award may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. Otherwise, you and we agree that the state or federal courts in Fairfield County, Connecticut have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals and the enforcement of an arbitration award.
WITH RESPECT TO DISPUTES SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION 10, BOTH YOU AND WE ARE GIVING UP THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE (OR PARTICIPATE IN AS A PARTY OR CLASS MEMBER) THOSE DISPUTES IN COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY.
11.1 Governing Law and Jurisdiction.
The interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement, and any dispute related to this Agreement or any Services, will be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of State of New York, without regard to conflict of law rules or principles (whether of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. With respect to any other proceeding that is not subject to arbitration under this Agreement, the federal and state courts located in New York, New York will have exclusive jurisdiction. You waive any objection to venue in any such courts.
11.2 Waiver of Jury Trial.
Both parties hereby waive any right to jury trial in connection with any action or litigation in any way arising out of or related to this Agreement or any Services.

11.4 Waiver; Severability.
No failure or delay by either party in exercising any right under this Agreement will constitute a waiver of that right.

11.5 Independent Contractors.
The parties are independent contractors and this Agreement is not intended to create, and does not create, any agency, joint venture, partnership, franchise, fiduciary or employment relationship between the parties.
