3. FEES AND PAYMENT

3.1 Fees. You will pay for our subscription products on an annual or monthly basis all Fees in accordance with this Agreement, unless otherwise agreed in an Order Form. Cap table management (equity, debt, options or other securities) fees are calculated monthly based on Services purchased and the number of Securities holders at the time of payment. You acknowledge that (a) Fees are based on Services purchased and the number of Securities holders at any given calendar month and not based on actual usage, (b) payment obligations are non-cancelable and Fees paid are non-refundable, and (c) quantities purchased cannot be decreased during the Term. Other products, such as software solutions for fundraising management are purchased on a one-off basis or calculated as a fee on the allotment stage. Full details on our pricing can be found here.

3.2 Renewal Fees. We reserve the right at any time to increase Fees for any renewal Term effective upon Us providing You with at least 30 days’ advance notice.

3.3 Additional Service Fees. Any additional consulting, training, support or other services occurring after the Effective Date, other than the standard support services for the Purchased Services, are subject to hourly fees.

3.4 Invoicing and Payment. You will provide Us with valid and updated credit card information, or with a valid purchase order or alternative document reasonably acceptable to Us. If You provide credit card information to Us, You authorize Us to charge such credit card for all Purchased Services listed in the Order Form. Such charges shall be made in advance starting on the Effective Date unless specified otherwise, either annually, monthly or in accordance with any different billing frequency stated in the applicable Order Form. If the Order Form specifies that payment will be by a method other than a credit card, We will invoice You in advance and otherwise in accordance with the relevant Order Form. Unless otherwise stated in the Order Form, invoiced charges are due within 30 days of receipt of invoice. You are responsible for providing complete and accurate billing and contact information to Us and notifying Us of any changes to such information.

3.5 Overdue Charges. If any invoiced amount is not received by Us by the due date, then without limiting Our rights or remedies, those charges may accrue late interest at the rate of 1.5% of the outstanding balance per month, or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower. We will not exercise Our rights under this Agreement if You are disputing the applicable charges reasonably and in good faith and are cooperating diligently to resolve the dispute.

3.6 Suspension of Service and Acceleration. If any amount owing by You under this Agreement or any other agreement for Our Services is 30 or more days overdue (or 10 or more days overdue in the case of amounts You have authorized Us to charge to Your credit card), We may, without limiting Our other rights and remedies, accelerate Your unpaid fee obligations under this Agreement or other agreements with Us or Our Affiliates so that all Your obligations become immediately due and payable, and suspend Our Services to You until such amounts are paid in full.

3.7 Taxes. Our Fees do not include any Taxes. You are responsible for paying all Taxes associated with Your purchases hereunder. If We have the legal obligation to pay or collect Taxes for which You are responsible, We will invoice You and You will pay that amount unless You provide Us with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority. For clarity, We are solely responsible for taxes assessable against Us based on Our income, property and employees. If an applicable tax authority requires us to pay any taxes that should have been payable by you, we will advise you in writing, and you will promptly reimburse us for the amounts paid.

3.8 Promotions Our fees are subject to promotional offers we may make from time to time. For example, we may be inclined to offer discounted Fees for our subscription products or provide extra free months or free credits to use the products. If we do that, we reserve the right to start charging you Fees at the standard non-promotional advertised price on our Site after the promotional period ends.

4.7. Access for customer support purposes. Occasionally you may contact us for customer support. It may be necessary for our team to access your company’s profile page for the purpose of onboarding or assistance, to enable them to see what you are having an issue with or for them to inspect a document you have referred to. This will only happen with your implied consent to do so, such as during an active conversation between yourself and a team member on our live chat software or through email/chat support.
Once you have finished working with that team member, they will remove their access from your company’s profile. We also require our team members to regularly review the list of companies they have access to and to remove themselves from any company that they are not actively assisting to minimize the risk of any data breach.

5. CONFIDENTIALITY

5.1 Treatment of Confidential Information. The Receiving Party agrees to (a) protect the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party from unauthorized disclosure to any third party with appropriate administrative, physical and technical safeguards, using the same degree of care as the Receiving Party uses to protect its own highly confidential information and in no event using less than a reasonable standard of care, and (b) use the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party only for a purpose within the scope of this Agreement. Except as otherwise authorized by the Disclosing Party in writing, the Receiving Party will limit access to Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to those of its and its Affiliates’ employees, contractors and subcontractors (including Our attorneys and accountants) who need that access for purposes consistent with this Agreement and who have signed confidentiality agreements with the Receiving Party containing protections not materially less protective of the Confidential Information than those herein. Such obligation will exist for the Term of this Agreement and for a period for 3 years thereafter to extent any Confidential Information is retained by the Receiving Party after termination of the Agreement.

5.2 Compelled Disclosure. The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to the extent compelled by law to do so, provided the Receiving Party gives the Disclosing Party prior notice of the compelled disclosure (to the extent legally permitted) and reasonable assistance, at the Disclosing Party’s cost, if the Disclosing Party wishes to contest the disclosure. If the Receiving Party is compelled by law to disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information as part of a civil proceeding to which the Disclosing Party is a party, and the Disclosing Party is not contesting the disclosure, the Disclosing Party will reimburse the Receiving Party for its reasonable cost of compiling and providing secure access to that Confidential Information.

5.3 Return of Confidential Information. Subject to the requirements of Section 9.5 (Client Data Portability and Deletion), upon termination of this Agreement, at the Disclosing Party’s request, the Receiving Party will promptly return or destroy all documents and other materials or storage media comprising or containing Confidential Information in such Party’s possession or control and make no further use of such Confidential Information, unless (a) legally required to maintain such information by applicable law or regulatory requirement, or (b) such information is in electronic back-up or archival media for which destruction is not reasonably practicable and not generally accessible, provided that any such information is kept confidential and destroyed in due course.
