15. General.

A. Third Party Materials; Third Party Open Source. Strapi may make available or the Software may enable Company or Company Users to access, use, consume, interoperate with or link to, or transfer or obtain Third Party Materials or Company Content.  Any Third Party Materials that Strapi interoperates and/or integrates with, delivers, interacts with, compiles, makes accessible or available are provided on an "as-is" and "as available" basis without any warranty of any kind.  Any warranty for Third Party Materials shall be provided directly by the provider of Third Party Materials. Strapi assumes no responsibility for Third Party Materials or the providers of Third Party Materials. Customer acknowledges and agrees that: (i) Strapi has no obligation to deliver, make available, verify, test, manage, monitor, ensure ongoing interoperability or availability of, or correct Third Party Materials. (ii) Strapi shall not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with use of or reliance on any such Third Party Materials; (iii)  the nature, type, quality and availability of Third Party Materials may change at any time during the Subscription Term, and (iv) features of the Software that interoperate with or provide access to Third Party Materials (including APIs) may change or depend on the ongoing cooperation with and from third party providers; (v) nothing herein or in any Documentation shall be construed to imply a guarantee or warranty of any kind regarding continued access, availability, interaction or interoperability with Third Party Materials or features of Software intended to be interoperable with Third Party Materials; and (vi) Strapi will not be liable to Customer for any damages or losses or refunds resulting from any changes in circumstances which result in a lack or failure of access or availability or compatibility or interoperability of Third Party Materials or any feature or functionality of the Software. Strapi may cease providing such access, integration, interaction, interoperability or features without entitling Customer to any refund, credit, or other compensation. Additionally Customer acknowledges that Customer's access or use of Third Party Materials shall be governed by separate third party terms between Customer and the third party provider. Except as expressly stated herein, Customer is solely responsible for obtaining appropriate access and use rights and maintaining such rights consistent with the terms of use governing Third Party Materials. Customer is solely responsible for complying with the terms of access and use of Third Party Materials, and if Strapi Representative or systems require access, use, processing, hosting or other exploitation of Third Party Materials on Customer behalf to facilitate performance of the Software, or to deliver Support and Maintenance Services or Professional Services contemplated hereunder, Customer is solely responsible for ensuring that such access and use, including through passwords, credentials or tokens issued or otherwise, is authorized by Customer's terms of access and use for such Third Party Materials. Notwithstanding anything else herein, and for clarity, to the extent Software makes available, integrates with, delivers or interacts with any third-party open source libraries/components/applications/user interface/utilities which are identified by Strapi as Third Party Materials (collectively referred to as "Third Party Open Source") and to the extent such Third Party Open Source is made available by Strapi to Customer and the third party licensor requires that Strapi disclose the relevant Third Party Open Source proprietary notices, disclaimers, requirements and/or extended rights which are relevant to the relevant Third Party Open Source ("Third Party Open Source Terms"), then Strapi shall do so and Customer agrees to be bound by such terms if accessing or using such Third Party Open Source.  Additionally, should Strapi embed Third Party Open Source into Software and deliver it as part of the Software offering, such source code shall not be subject to copy left terms which create, or purport to create, an obligation that Customer grant to any third party any rights to, or immunities under, any of Customer's own Intellectual Property Rights, or that may require that Customer disclose or make any of its own proprietary code available to third parties.

B.  Telemetry Data.  Customer, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Users, authorizes Strapi (and its Representatives) to collect and analyze data, metrics and other information relating to the provision, use, consumption, security, integrity, and performance of various aspects of the Software, Strapi systems and interactions and interoperability between the Software and Strapi Systems with other technologies or Third Party Materials (collectively "Telemetry Data"). For clarity, Telemetry Data includes encrypted, anonymized, and non-sensitive data transmitted from the Project to Strapi in order to track Customer's compliance with the Subscription Parameters. Telemetry Data shall not be deemed Customer Content or Customer Confidential Information.  The term "Aggregated and Anonymized Form" means the data has been collected from multiple sources and compiled in a way that does not identify, and is not capable of identifying, Customer, Users, or any individual or entity associated with Customer, including as the source of such Telemetry Data. Strapi (and Strapi Representatives acting on behalf of Strapi and  Strapi successors and permitted assigns) will be free to: (a) use such Telemetry Data for any internal lawful business purpose including to verify compliance with Subscription Parameters and restrictions, to develop, improve and enhance the Software, to improve interoperability, to develop, enhance, diagnose, correct or improve its offerings, to create reports, summaries, and other materials, and (b) disclose such Telemetry Data to others, provided such Telemetry Data is in an "Aggregated and Anonymized Form".  Notwithstanding the forgoing, Telemetry Data may be disclosed in a non-Aggregated but Anonymized Form to Strapi's Representatives subject to the restrictions stated herein and/or to any advisors, investors, lawyers, and accountants as part of a legal proceeding or as necessary to defend Strapi or its Representatives rights or enforce this Agreement.

F. Equitable Relief.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Parties agree that a material breach of this Agreement which adversely affects Confidential Information disclosed in connection with this Agreement and/or any Intellectual Property Rights in Software (or any component thereof) shall cause irreparable injury for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and the non-breaching Party shall be entitled to equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction (without a requirement to post a bond) in addition to any remedies it may have hereunder or at law.

J. Compliance with Laws, Export Control and U.S. Government Users.  Customer agrees that the Software may include cryptographic technology, data or other information and shall not be received, exported, imported, used, transferred, distributed, accessed, or re-exported except in compliance with the applicable laws and regulations of the relevant government authorities, including U.S. export control and sanction regulations.  Customer also represents and covenants: (i) not to, directly or indirectly, allow access to or use of the Software in embargoed or sanctioned countries/regions, by sanctioned or denied persons, or for prohibited end-uses under applicable law; and (ii) that Customer shall ensure that its receipt and use of and/or access to the Software, or that of its Users, is in accordance with the restrictions in this subsection. If any part of the Software is being licensed by the U.S. government, including any U.S. federal agency, the Software is considered access to commercial computer software and documentation developed exclusively at private expense and the Software is provided as a "commercial item" as that term is defined in FAR 2.101 (and as it is defined and used in all corresponding agency specific Federal Acquisition Regulation supplements) and is provided with only those rights specified in section 2.

K. Assignment.  This Agreement may not be wholly assigned or transferred without the other Party's prior written consent, provided each party expressly reserves the right to assign this Agreement to a successor in interest of all or substantially all of its business or assets.  Any action or conduct in violation of the foregoing shall be void and without effect. All validly assigned rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by and against the successors and permitted assigns. 

L.  Delegation.  Notwithstanding anything else herein, Strapi may delegate (including by way of subcontract) any of its obligations hereunder to its Representatives, provided Strapi shall be solely and fully liable and responsible for its Representatives compliance with the relevant terms and conditions of this Agreement with respect to any such delegation. 

M. No Third Party Beneficiaries.  The provisions of this Agreement are for the benefit of Customer and Strapi (as the case may be) and not for any other person or entity, whether under statute or otherwise.  There are no third party beneficiaries intended hereunder.   Only Strapi and the Customer may bring legal action against the other Party hereunder. 

N. Marketing and Promotion.  From time-to-time, Strapi lists and/or mentions its customers in its marketing and communications initiatives.  Customer agrees that Strapi may use Customer's name and logo, for such purpose. In addition, subject to applicable privacy law and Strapi's Privacy Notice, Customer expressly consents to Strapi contacting Customer for marketing or promotional purposes. Such right may be revoked by Customer by providing written instruction to privacy@strapi.io, which notice shall specify the particular marks, names, logos of other assets that you require Strapi to cease displaying on our physical or digital marketing materials.

O. No Waiver.  The waiver by either Party of any right provided under this Agreement must be in writing signed by such Party and any waiver shall not constitute a subsequent or continuing waiver of such right or of any other right under this Agreement.

P. Severability.  If any section, provision, or part thereof of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent authority in any jurisdiction, that section, provision or part shall be limited if possible and only thereafter severed to the extent necessary to render this Agreement valid and enforceable in such jurisdiction.

Q. Entire Agreement; Modifications.  This Agreement is the complete agreement between the Parties concerning the subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior agreements and understandings between the Parties applicable to the Software, Support and Maintenance Services or Professional Services delivered by or on behalf of Strapi. This Agreement prevails over any click through or online agreement or pre-printed terms or other conflicting or additional terms of any purchase order, acknowledgment, confirmation, or other ordering document issued by Customer or an Authorized Reseller, even if signed and returned. Except as expressly provided herein, this Agreement may only be modified by the Parties by a writing executed by both parties, referencing the specific section being amended.  Except to the extent expressly precluded by applicable law, Strapi may modify this Agreement, including to reflect changes in law or business practices with advance written notice to Customer.  Notwithstanding any notice requirements herein, Strapi may notify Customer of the change by a reasonable means of notice, including email to User account(s) or if no valid email available, by posting the revised Agreement to the Cloud Dashboard. Customer agrees that its continued access or use of the Software after the written notice and changes become effective shall constitute Customer's acceptance of the revised Agreement. Unless otherwise specifically set out in the relevant Order or Statement of Work referencing a specific section to be modified in these terms and conditions, in the event of a conflict between these terms and conditions and the Support Policy, Statement of Work, or Order, these terms and conditions shall prevail.

R. Basis of the Bargain. The Parties acknowledge and agree that Strapi has set its prices and entered into this Agreement in reliance upon the disclaimers of warranty and the limitations of liability agreed to herein, that the same reflect an allocation of risk between the parties (including the risk that a contract remedy may fail of its essential purpose and cause consequential loss), and that the same form an essential basis of the bargain between the parties.
