  1. Ownership. As between ZENTRA and Client, ZENTRA has, and shall retain, all right, title and interest in and to the Services, any trade secrets, inventions or know-how (whether patentable or not) or Software incorporated or used in the Services, and all intellectual property and other proprietary rights (including, without limitation, trademarks, trade names, moral rights, copyrights and patent rights) in any of the foregoing arising under the laws of the United States or anywhere throughout the world.
  2. Confidentiality. Each party agrees that, except upon the prior express written approval of the other party, the receiving party will hold in confidence, and shall not disclose to any person, firm, corporation or other entity, any Confidential Information received in connection with this Agreement. Client further agrees that Client will not reverse engineer or attempt to derive the composition or underlying information, structure, or ideas of the Services. Disclosure of Confidential Information by the disclosing party to the receiving party does not grant the receiving party a license in or to any of the Confidential Information. If, in the course of this Agreement, it is ever unclear to the receiving party whether certain information is Confidential Information, the receiving party will ask a principal of the disclosing party whether the information is Confidential Information and the receiving party will treat such information as Confidential Information unless and until the receiving party is told in writing that such information is not Confidential Information.
  3. Nondisclosure. The receiving party agrees that the receiving party shall:
    1. use Confidential Information only in the manner and for the purposes specified in the disclosure made to the receiving party;
    2. advise each employee or other person with access to Confidential Information of the obligation to protect it;
    3. use, and require others to use, due care to protect all Confidential Information; and
    4. promptly notify the disclosing party of any unauthorized release of Confidential Information.
  4. Duties Upon Termination of this Agreement. Upon termination of this Agreement, the receiving party agrees that the receiving party will exercise reasonable care to return to the disclosing party all documents or articles containing Confidential Information, or destroy such documents or articles containing Confidential Information and certify to the disclosing party that it has done so.
  5. Enforcement. The parties further agree that:
    1. the restrictions set forth in this Agreement protect the legitimate interests of the disclosing party and impose no undue hardship on the receiving party;
    2. the restrictions set forth in this Agreement are reasonable as to scope and duration; and
    3. due to the unique nature of Confidential Information, any breach of this Agreement would cause irreparable harm for which damages are not an adequate remedy and that the disclosing party shall therefore be entitled to an injunction or other equitable relief in addition to all other remedies available at law.
  6. Restrictions. ZENTRA has represented to Client that it has expended great expense in creating the Software and the Services and has a proprietary interest therein. Client acknowledges that the Software is copyrighted and contains trade secrets of ZENTRA. Client covenants that it will not sublicense, disclose, display, copy, distribute or use the Software or the Services for any other purpose than that described herein and will hold in strict confidence the design, specifications and associated Documentation of the Software and Services. Neither Client, nor any third party, shall modify, adapt, translate, prepare derivative works from, decompile, reverse engineer, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code from the Software. Neither Client, nor any third party, shall remove, obscure or alter ZENTRA’s copyright notices, trademarks, trade names or other proprietary rights or notices affixed to or contained in the Software and/or the Services. Client shall not and shall not authorize any third party to: (i) create derivative works, as defined under 17 USC § 106 (as interpreted by applicable case law), copy (other than as set forth in this Agreement), alter or in any way modify the Software; (ii) translate, decompile, disassemble, reverse compile or reverse engineer the Software or the Services, or in any other manner reduce the Software or the Services to human perceivable form, except to the extent that such restrictions are not permitted under applicable law; or (iii) bypass or delete any copy protection methods that are for preventing unauthorized copying or use of the Software or the Services. Client further acknowledges and agrees that in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the Client of any of the provisions of this paragraph, ZENTRA will have no adequate remedy at law and accordingly shall be entitled to injunctive relief. However, no specification in this Agreement of a specific legal or equitable remedy shall be construed as a waiver or prohibition against any other legal or equitable remedies in the event of the breach of any provision of this Agreement. The covenants contained in this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Agreement. Client shall take appropriate action whether by instruction, agreement or otherwise and whether with its employees or others, to satisfy its obligations under this Agreement with respect to the use, copying, protection and security of the Software, Services, Documentation, and all materials related thereto.

Further, Client shall not, and shall not allow any others to: (a) interfere with or disrupt the integrity or performance of the Services; or (b) attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Services or its related systems or networks.

  1. Reservation of Rights. Any and all rights in and to the Software, Documentation, and Services not expressly granted to Client in this Agreement are hereby reserved by ZENTRA.
  2. Privacy and Data Protection. Client is responsible for entering personal information into the ZENTRA portal. This data can include name, credential, phone number and/or email. Client agrees not to enter sensitive data in custom data fields in ZENTRA unless Client determines it is absolutely necessary, or Client has a legitimate business purpose for doing so.

The data is stored securely in the ZENTRA cloud platform and only stored for the explicit purpose of use within the ZENTRA cloud application.

Upon termination of this Agreement and written request from Client, ZENTRA will use commercially reasonable efforts to delete all Client data and copies of Client data from its systems.

  3. Infringement. If the Services, or any portion of the Services becomes, or in Client's reasonable opinion is likely to become, the subject of an infringement, including misappropriation, claim or proceeding, ZENTRA shall, in addition to indemnifying Client as provided in this section and any other rights Client may have under the Agreement: (i) promptly at ZENTRA’s expense secure the right to continue using the Services; or (ii) if this cannot be accomplished with commercially reasonable efforts, then, at ZENTRA’ expense, replace or modify the Services to make the Services non-infringing, provided the replacement or modification will not degrade the performance or quality of the Services for any affected component of the Services; or (iii) if neither (i) or (ii) can be accomplished by ZENTRA with commercially reasonable efforts in its sole discretion, then, Zentra will refund to Client the amount Client paid for the remaining term of the Services. The remedies provided in this section shall not limit ZENTRA’s indemnification obligations defined above.

The party seeking indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnitee”) shall provide the other party (the “Indemnitor”) with: (i) prompt written notice of any claim subject to indemnification; provided, however, the Indemnitor shall not be required to indemnify Indemnitee to the extent any delay in providing such notification increases the amount of any such claim; and (ii) reasonable assistance to defend or settle such claim at the Indemnitor’s expense. The Indemnitee agrees that the Indemnitor shall have sole control of the defense and all related settlement negotiations of such claim; provided, however, that the Indemnitor shall not agree to any settlement or compromise that imposes any obligation or liability on the Indemnitee (other than the payment of money that is indemnified or that impacts the use of the Software or the Services) without the Indemnitee’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

  1. Software Functionality.

“Named Users”. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and upon payment in full of the fees set forth in one or more Order Form(s) or invoice, as the case may be, Client may use the Services solely for Client’s business purposes for the number of Named Users as set forth in an Order Form or invoice, as the case may be, and in the Documentation. As used herein, “Named User” means the end-user identified by name and authorized by Client to use the Services pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Named Users may be de-activated by Client removing security profiles from end-user accounts. Once a Named User is de-activated, it can be re-activated by Client by allocating the license related to such de-activated Named User to any Named User account.

The online access rights to the Software located on ZENTRA’s servers and the online services and functions offered in connection with the Software are further described in the Documentation. Such access rights may be subject to terms and conditions of third-party services incorporated into the Services. Client agrees to comply with, and to ensure that its Named Users comply with, any such third-party terms and conditions.

  1. Additional Use Restrictions

The responsibility for avoiding harmful activities rests primarily with the Client. ZENTRA will not, as an ordinary practice, monitor the communications of its subscribers to ensure that they comply with ZENTRA policy or applicable law. When ZENTRA becomes aware of harmful activities, however, it may take any action to stop the harmful activity, including but not limited to, removing information, shutting down a web site, implementing screening software designed to block offending transmissions, denying access to the internet, or take any other action it deems appropriate.

Material and Product Requirements. Client must ensure that all material and data placed on ZENTRA' equipment is in a condition that is 'server-ready,' which is in a form requiring no additional manipulation by ZENTRA. ZENTRA will make no effort to validate any of this information for content, correctness or usability. If Client material is not 'server-ready,' ZENTRA has the option at any time to reject this material. ZENTRA will notify Client of its refusal of the material and afford Client the opportunity to amend or modify the material to satisfy the needs and/or requirements of ZENTRA. Use of the Services requires a certain level of knowledge in the use of the Software. It is not ZENTRA' responsibility to provide this knowledge or Client support outside of the Services.

Actions. ZENTRA reserves the right and has absolute discretion to restrict or remove from its servers any content that violates this Agreement or related policies or guidelines, or is otherwise objectionable or potentially infringing on any third party's rights or potentially in violation of any laws. If ZENTRA becomes aware of any possible violation by Client of this Agreement, any related policies or guidelines, third party rights or laws, ZENTRA may immediately take corrective action, including, but not limited to, (a) issuing warnings, (b) suspending or terminating the Service, (c) restricting or prohibiting any and all uses of content hosted on ZENTRA' systems, and/or (d)disabling or removing any hypertext links to third-party web sites, any of Client content distributed or made available for distribution via the Services, or other content not supplied by ZENTRA which, in ZENTRA’s sole discretion, may violate or infringe any law or third-party rights or which otherwise exposes or potentially exposes ZENTRA to civil or criminal liability or public ridicule. It is ZENTRA' policy to terminate repeat infringers. ZENTRA' right to take corrective action, however, does not obligate ZENTRA to monitor or exert editorial control over the information made available for distribution via the Services. If ZENTRA takes corrective action due to such possible violation, ZENTRA shall not be obligated to refund to Client any fees paid in advance of such corrective action.

Disclosure Rights. To comply with applicable laws and lawful governmental requests, to protect ZENTRA’s systems and Clients, or to ensure the integrity and operation of ZENTRA’s business and systems, ZENTRA may access and disclose any information it considers necessary or appropriate, including, without limitation, user profile information (i.e., name, e-mail address, etc.), IP addressing and traffic information, usage history, and content residing on ZENTRA' servers and systems. ZENTRA also reserves the right to report any activity that it suspects violates any law or regulation to appropriate law enforcement officials, regulators, or other appropriate third parties. If ZENTRA, or any of its Affiliates are requested or required by applicable law, regulation, legal process, subpoena, or other directive of a court, administrative agency, quasi-judicial body, or arbitration panel to disclose the Client’s Confidential Information, ZENTRA, or its Affiliates will notify the Client promptly so that the Client may seek an appropriate protective order, or waive, in such instance, compliance by ZENTRA or its Affiliate with the applicable provisions of this Agreement. In the event no protective order or other remedy is obtained, ZENTRA or its Affiliates, under the advice of legal counsel, will furnish only that portion of the Clients Confidential Information that ZENTRA is legally required to disclose. In any event, ZENTRA or its Affiliates will cooperate with, and not oppose action by, the Client to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment consistent with this Agreement will be accorded the Confidential Information.

Interruption of Service. Client understands and agrees that occasional temporary interruptions of any internet services may occur as normal events in the provision of Internet services. Client hereby acknowledge and agree that under no circumstances will ZENTRA be held liable to Client or any other person, firm or entity for any financial or other damages due to any temporary delay, outages or interruptions of the Services. Further, ZENTRA shall not be liable to Client or any other person, firm or entity for any delay or failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement, where such delay or failure results from any cause or causes including, but not limited to, any act of God, fire, explosion, vandalism, cable cut, storm, or other cause beyond its reasonable control (including, without limitation, any mechanical, electronic, communications or third-party supplier failure); any law, order, regulation, direction, action or request of the United

States government or of any other government (including state and local governmental agency, department, commission, court, bureau, corporation or other instrumentality of any one or more of said governments) or of any civil or military authority; national emergencies, insurrections, riots, wars; or strikes, lockouts, or work stoppages or other labor difficulties; ZENTRA failures, shortages, breaches or delays.

The primary function of the SA is to perform a first level Problem determination, severity level determination, Problem resolution and then interface with any additional resources required, working towards the resolution of the Problem. In addition, the SA can be called during Hours of Operation to give a status update on any ongoing Problems and is responsible for pro-actively obtaining any status updates.

Incident – An Incident is defined as a single-defined Problem seeking resolution.

Problem – A Problem is a failure of the Software to conform with ZENTRA’s published specifications for the Software in any material respect, or a failure of the Hosting Services to meet the terms in this Agreement.

Problem Report – Notification of a Problem that includes the following information: (1) a description of the Problem and the desired functionality the Client wishes to achieve, (2) the step-by-step process to reproduce the Problem, and (3) any and all exact error messages associated with the Problem.

Resolution – A Resolution to a Problem may consist of any of the following:

  • Solution or answer is provided
  • A request for enhancement is submitted
  • A fix or work-around is provided
  • An identified error in the Documentation is fixed
  • A fix is incorporated into a future release (for Severity Three and Four only)
  • The Problem relates to a third-party software vendor who has been notified of the problem

An Incident is considered “open” when a Client provides an SA with a Problem Report. An Incident is considered "closed" when a Resolution to the Problem is given to the Client. An Incident is also considered “closed” if and when it is determined that (a) the Problem Report relates to third party software that is not the Software or the Hosting Services, (b) the problem identified is not a Problem as defined herein, or is not covered by the Services or (c) the problem relates to a hardware/software issue that is not supported by ZENTRA.

  1. Client Services

ZENTRA shall provide Client, so long as Client is in compliance with the terms of this Agreement, with the following services:

  1. Phone/Email/Web-based Support – Client shall have the opportunity to access a web-based portal, call or e-mail ZENTRA to have questions answered about the operation of the Software. ZENTRA will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide answers to Client’s questions during Hours of Operation.
  2. Updates and Upgrades – Client shall be provided with any Updates (and Upgrades if Client has paid ZENTRA for Services as set forth herein) that ZENTRA makes generally available to its other customers and will install the Update or Upgrade in Client environments.

Should Client alter the Software in any manner, ZENTRA’s obligation to provide the services described herein shall immediately cease.

  1. Support Process

ZENTRA requires that Client purchase an annual or one-time support contract. ZENTRA will request that Client designate up to three (3) Client support representatives (“Client Designated Representatives”) who will be authorized to contact ZENTRA’ Customer Support for support requests. The SA is the main point of coordination for all support requests and is the first point of contact in the event that a Client Designated Representative needs assistance with the Software or Hosting Services.

Client shall establish and maintain the organization and processes to provide “First Line Support” for the Software directly to end users. First Line Support shall include but not be limited to (a) a direct response to end users with respect to inquiries concerning the functionality or operation of the Software, (b) a direct response to end users with respect to problems with the Software, (c) a diagnosis of problems or deficiencies of the Software and (d) a resolution of problems or deficiencies of the Software.

ZENTRA shall establish and maintain the organization and processes to provide “Second Line Support” for the Software to Client. If after commercially reasonable efforts Client is unable to diagnose or resolve problems or deficiencies of the Software, Client shall contact ZENTRA’s SA (or other ZENTRA support representative if SA is not available) for Second Line Support and ZENTRA shall provide support for the Software in accordance with the terms herein.

Second Line Support shall be provided to up to three (3) Client Designated Representatives. ZENTRA shall provide Second Line Support directly only to these Client Designated

Representatives. Second Line Support shall include but not be limited to (i) a diagnosis of Problems and (ii) a resolution of Problems.

  1. Support Severity Levels

Severity One  A Problem exists that renders the Software inoperable or inaccessible. The Software is experiencing a total system failure as a result of a Problem and there is no work-around or reasonable alternative method available, or a key function or process immediately critical to the Client's business is not working as documented as a result of the Problem, causing the Client’s business operations to be catastrophically impacted, and there are no workarounds or reasonable alternative method available.

Severity Two – A function is not working as documented as a result of a Problem, however, there is a work-around or reasonable alternative method available; or a function is not working as documented, and there is no work-around or reasonable alternative method available, however the use of the function is not immediately critical to the business, but the function is necessary.

Severity Three – A function is not working as documented as a result of a Problem, however, the Incident has a minor impact to the Client's business, but is requested to be fixed.
