  1. Risks of Delivery and Security. Customer acknowledges that the Services are provided in  part over the Internet or other public networks, over which 7T maintains no control, and that  substantial risks, including loss and corruption of data, delays, non-deliveries, mis-deliveries, and  service interruptions, are associated with the reception, transmission, storage, manipulation, and  other uses of data. Customer acknowledges and accepts all risks of dependence upon or use of  data received, transmitted, accessed, stored, or managed by the Application. Customer agrees  to ascertain, implement, and take all appropriate or necessary precautions to protect itself from  losses and damages associated with such risks and acknowledges it has been advised to acquire  insurance against such risk. Customer acknowledges that the Services are not designed or  intended for use in connection with any hazardous environments or high risk applications, such  as use in or with medical applications, life support machines, safety equipment, nuclear facilities,  or any application where failure of the Services (either alone or in conjunction with other components or third party services) could lead directly to death, personal injury, or severe  physical, property or environmental damage. 7T specifically disclaims any express or implied  warranty, representation and condition of fitness for such activities.
  1. Customer Data.  

7.1 Use of Customer Data. Any Customer-specific data accumulated by or into the Application  will be the property of Customer (“Customer Data”), and Customer grants 7T a worldwide, non exclusive limited right to access, use, process, copy, distribute, perform, export and display  Customer Data, as reasonably necessary (a) to provide, maintain and update the Services; (b) to  prevent or address service, security, support or technical issues; (c) as required by law; and (d)  as expressly permitted in writing by Customer. Customer represents and warrants that it has  secured all rights in and to Customer Data from its Users as may be necessary to grant this  license. 7T is not responsible for the content of any Customer Data or the way Customer or its  Users choose to use the Services to store or process any Customer Data. Customer Data must  comply with the AUP. All Customer Data processed in connection with the provision of Services  will be processed and stored in the United States and/or in accordance with the SayHey privacy  policy available at www.sayheymessenger.co/privacy (“Privacy Policy”). Use of the Services by  Customer and provision of any personal information to 7T are deemed your consent to the  transfer, processing, and storage of such information in and to the United States. 

7.2 Archive, Deletion, or Removal of Customer Data. Customer Data contained in archived  electronic records created pursuant to standard electronic backup procedures is subject to  confidentiality obligations set forth in this Agreement and shall remain in the possession of 7T.  Customer Data contained in such records shall be exempted from any and all deletion or  destruction requirements at or after termination of the Agreement as per the electronic retention  and destruction policies of 7T. Electronic retention and destruction policies of 7T are subject to  change at any time. Thirty (30) days after termination or expiration of your Subscription, 7T will have no obligation to maintain or provide you the Customer Data and may, unless legally prohibited, delete all Customer Data in our systems or otherwise in our control. If 7T believes there could be a violation of the Agreement or any of the policies set forth herein that can simply be remedied by Customer’s removal of certain Customer Data or taking other action, 7T will, in most cases, ask Customer to take action rather than intervene. However, 7T reserves the right to take appropriate action at its discretion (including disabling user or Customer’s account) if Customer does not take appropriate action or 7T believes there is a credible risk of harm to us, the Services, Users, or any third parties. 

7.3 Aggregate Data. For the purpose of improving the Application by understanding patterns of  use and other metrics, and without limiting Customer’s ownership rights in the Customer Data, 7T may utilize data capture, syndication and analysis tools and other similar tools to extract, compile,  synthesize and analyze any non-personally and non-Customer identifiable data or information  resulting from Customer’s use of the Services (“Statistical Data”). Statistical Data may be  collected by 7T for any lawful business purpose without a duty of accounting to Customer,  provided that the Statistical Data is used only in an aggregated form without specifically identifying  the source of the Statistical Data. 

7.4 Protection of Customer Data. Protection of Customer Data is high priority and we will  maintain at a minimum industry standard administrative, physical, and technical safeguards and  include measures for preventing unauthorized access, use, modification, deletion and disclosure  of Customer Data by our personnel. Customer bears sole responsibility for adequate security, protection and backup of Customer Data when in Customer’s or its representatives’ or agents’  possession or control.  

7.5 European Privacy and Data Security Compliance. This provision applies only if and to the  extent any User or Customer Data is subject to data security and privacy laws of the European  Union or the UK. Except for information about Customer’s account, Customer is considered the  sole controller of any personal data included in Customer Data, and, to the extent applicable,  appoints 7T and its authorized third party service providers as processors to process such  personal data (as those terms are defined in the European Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (General  Data Protection Regulation)) solely to the extent required to deliver the Services. Customer  agrees and will ensure that its Users accessing the Application through Customer’s account  agree, that 7T and its subprocessors are permitted to process personal data as contemplated by  these Terms, may transfer personal data across a country border, including outside the European  Economic Area and the UK, and use processors and subprocessors (including personnel and  resources) in locations worldwide to deliver the Services. 7T will reasonably cooperate with  Customer or a User, as applicable, in its fulfillment of any legal requirement, including providing  a User with access to their personal data of which 7T has access and control. Upon request by  either party, 7T and Customer may enter into additional agreements required by law for the  protection of personal data, including but not limited to, a standard data processing addendum  incorporating the EU Standard Contractual Clauses or the UK Standard Contractual Clauses with  optional clauses removed. The parties agree that any such data processing addendum will be  subject to the limitations and exclusions of liability in these Terms, such that the total liability of  each party and its Affiliates, in the aggregate, will not exceed the limitations set out in these Terms.  If either 7T or its subprocessors makes a change to the way it processes or secures personal  data as part of the Services and such change causes Customer to be noncompliant with  applicable data protection laws, Customer may terminate the affected Service by providing written  notice to 7T within thirty (30) days of 7T’s notification of the change to Customer.  

  1. Customer Obligations  

8.1 Customer acknowledges that to receive full benefit of the Application, Customer’s users must  be trained in the use of the Application, and that such training should include both initial system  training and periodic updates. Customer shall designate one person (as well as an alternate) to  serve as its point of contact (“Administrator”) with 7T. Customer agrees that such Administrator  shall receive initial training on the Application, provided either by 7T or by an assigned  representative of 7T, and that such Administrator shall complete the minimum prescribed number  of training hours as specified by 7T. The Services are not intended for and should not be used by  anyone under the age of 16. Customer must ensure that all Users 16 years old or older. Customer  is solely responsible for providing high speed internet service for itself and its Users to access  and use the Subscription Services. Each user shall access the Subscription Services with a  unique user ID and password. Customer shall not allow any users to access the Subscription  Services with the same user ID and password. 

8.2 Customer is responsible for the compliance with these Terms (including the AUP) by any  user accessing the Subscription on behalf of Customer. It is Customer’s responsibility to ensure  the disclosure of these terms and obligations to any user to whom access to the Subscription is  granted. CUSTOMER HAS SOLE RESPONSIBILITY TO (1) INFORM USERS OF CUSTOMER  POLICIES AND PRACTICES AND ANY SETTINGS THAT MAY IMPACT THE PROCESSING  OF CUSTOMER DATA; (2) OBTAIN ANY RIGHTS, PERMISSIONS OR CONSENTS FROM  USERS THAT ARE NECESSARY FOR THE LAWFUL USE OF CUSTOMER DATA OR ANY  PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION OF ANY USER IN THE OPERATION OF THE  SERVICES; (3) ENSURE THAT THE TRANSFER AND PROCESSING OF CUSTOMER DATA UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LAWFUL AS BETWEEN CUSTOMER AND ANY OF ITS USERS;  AND (4) RESPOND TO AND RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE WITH USERS OR ANY THIRD PARTY  RELATING TO OR BASED ON CUSTOMER DATA, THE SERVICES OR CUSTOMER’S  FAILURE TO FULFILL THESE OBLIGATIONS.  

8.3 Customer acknowledges that certain locally active security settings and installed software  (i.e. anti-spam, anti-virus, pop-up blocker, and other similar software) can interfere with or prevent  the delivery of notifications through the Application and that 7T has no control over these user installed programs or security settings. Customer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless 7T from  any service interruptions, delays or system failures arising from such security settings or software,  and will take necessary steps to eliminate these issues. 

8.4 If the Parties enter into an SOW, Customer acknowledges that 7T’s ability to complete the  Professional Services is dependent upon Customer’s active participation and assumes that the  Customer will perform, in a timely and satisfactory manner, certain tasks such as delivering  requested materials, data and information, responding to inquiries, and providing feedback and  approvals. 

8.5 Customer is responsible for all login credentials, including usernames and passwords, for  Administrator and Users. We will not be responsible for any damages, losses or liability to  Customer, Users, or anyone else, if such information is not kept confidential by Customer or its  Users, or if such information is correctly provided by an unauthorized third party logging into and  accessing the Services. 

  1. Customer Support. Customer may designate up to two primary Customer Contacts.  Customer may also designate one backup Customer Contact for each primary Customer Contact.  Customer shall provide 7T with a list of its Customer Contacts as well as updates to that list as  appropriate. Customer Support is available by email to support@sayheymessenger.co
  2. Relationship of Parties; Feedback. This Agreement is not intended, and shall not be  construed, to create between Customer and 7T a relationship as partners, co-venturers, employer  and employee, or principal and agent. 

We welcome and encourage customer feedback. The more suggestions our customers make, the  better the Services become. Because there is a chance we will use feedback or suggestions,  Customer agrees such information is not confidential and that 7T owns any such feedback or  suggestions for any purpose without any obligation or compensation to Customer, any User or  other Customer personnel.  

  1. Term and Renewal; Termination. The term of the initial Subscription will be specified in the  Order Form, commencing as of the Effective Date. Each Subscription shall automatically renew for subsequent one (1) year periods at the end of the applicable Subscription Period, unless either  Party gives the other written notice of intent not to renew at least thirty (30) days prior to the end  of the then-current Subscription Period. Subscriptions may be cancelled early, but no refunds will  be provided for not using the Subscription Service or seeking to end the Subscription Period early.  

11.1 Suspension or Termination for Cause. Either party may terminate this Agreement for cause, as to any or all Subscription Services: (i) upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the other party of a material breach if such breach remains uncured at the expiration of such period, or (ii) immediately, if the other party becomes the subject of a petition in bankruptcy or any other proceeding relating to insolvency, cessation of business, liquidation or assignment for the benefit of creditors, or if the breach is of a nature that cannot be cured. In addition to any other rights  hereunder, 7T reserves the right to suspend or terminate this Agreement and Customer’s access  to the Application if Customer’s account becomes delinquent (falls into arrears) and the Customer  does not correct such delinquency upon five (5) days’ written notice. Any Order Form may not otherwise be terminated prior to the end of the Subscription Period. 

11.2 Effect of Termination. Upon termination for cause by Customer, 7T will refund any prepaid  fees covering the remainder of the term of the terminated Subscription from the effective date of  termination. Fees are otherwise non-refundable. Upon any termination for cause by 7T, Customer  will pay any unpaid fees covering the remainder of the term of the terminated Subscription if any.  Except as stated above, termination will not relieve Customer of the obligation to pay any fees  payable to us for the period prior to the effective date of termination. 

  1. Confidentiality. Customer and 7T acknowledge that, by reason of the business relationship  created under this Agreement, each Party may have access to certain non-public information and  materials relating to the other Party’s prospective employees, employees, business plans,  customers, software technology, and marketing strategies, operations of the Services, information  about 7T’s business procedures, and other similar confidential or proprietary information which is  confidential and of substantial value to the respective Parties (“Confidential Information”). Each  Party agrees that it will (a) take at least reasonable measures to prevent the unauthorized  disclosure or use of the other party’s Confidential Information, and limit access to those  employees, affiliates and contractors who need to know such information in connection with the  Agreement; and (b) not use or disclose any Confidential Information of the other party for any  purpose outside the scope of this Agreement. However, either party may share the other party’s  Confidential Information (c) with financial and legal advisors that are bound to confidentiality  obligations at least as restrictive as those herein or (d) if required by law, provided the disclosing  party provides the other party prior notice of any compelled access or disclosure if legally  permitted. 

Upon termination of this Agreement, each Party shall return to the other Party all Confidential  Information belonging to the other Party. If the provisions of this section are breached, or  threatened to be breached, the Parties acknowledge that an irreparable harm will occur upon  such breach, and the non-breaching Party shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief. The terms  and conditions of this Agreement, including pricing, shall be considered Confidential Information.  The provisions of this section shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 

  1. Intellectual Property. 7T reserves all rights in and to the Application and any customization  thereto, the Services, and all rights not specifically granted herein or in an Order Form, including  any and all copyright, trademark or other intellectual property rights associated with the Services.  Without limiting the foregoing, Customer may not: (i) design or create any derivative works based  on the Application (or services constituting the Applications); (ii) modify, reverse engineer,  decompile, disassemble or translate the source/object code comprising the Application; (iii)  remove, obscure or alter any notice of copyright or other proprietary notices present on or in the  Application (or services constituting the Application), or (iv) disclose or use any information which  7T informs Customer is confidential, including, without limitation, information about the operation  of the Service, 7T’s customer base, or information about 7T’s business procedures. Customer  may not permit its employees or any third party to do any of the foregoing. Customer hereby  transfers to 7T, or its designee, all of its right, title and interest in and to any and all inventions,  original works of authorship, developments, concepts, improvements or trade secrets, whether or  not patentable or registerable under copyright or similar laws arising from the Application, which may be created or conceived by Customer or its employees. Customer agrees to execute and  deliver to 7T any document evidencing such transfer at the request of 7T. If any anytime 7T makes software components available as part of or related to the Services, via download, app  stores or other channels, 7T grants Customer a non-sublicensable, non-transferable, non exclusive, limited license for Customer and its Users to use the object code version of these  components, but solely as necessary to use the Services and in accordance with the Agreement.
  1. Indemnification.

14.1 Customer Indemnification. You will indemnify, defend and hold us harmless, at your expense, against any third-party claim, suit, action, or proceeding (each, an “Action“) brought against us (and our officers, directors, employees, agents, service providers, licensors, and affiliates) by a third party not affiliated with us to the extent that such Action is based upon or arises out of (a) unauthorized or illegal use of the Subscription Service by you or your Users or Customer Data, (b) your or your Users’ noncompliance with or breach of this Agreement or the AUP, (c) use of Third-Party Products by Customer or Users, or (d) the unauthorized use of the Subscription Service by any other person using your User information. We will: notify you in writing within thirty (30) days of our becoming aware of any such claim; give you sole control of the defense or settlement of such a claim; and provide you (at your expense) with any and all information and assistance reasonably requested by you to handle the defense or settlement of the claim. 

14.2 7T Indemnification. 7T will defend Customer from and against any and all third party claims, actions, suits, proceedings, and demands alleging that the use of the Services as permitted under the Agreement infringes or misappropriates a third party’s intellectual property rights (a “Action Against Customer”), and will indemnify Customer for all reasonable attorney’s fees incurred and damages and other costs finally awarded against Customer in connection with or as a result of, and for amounts paid by Customer under a settlement we approve of in connection with an Action Against Customer. However, 7T will have no liability if an Action Against Customer arises from (a) Customer Data or Third-Party Products; or (b) any modification, combination or development of the Services that is not performed by us, including in the use of any application programming interface (API). Customer must provide 7T with prompt written notice of any such Action Against Customer and allow us the right to assume the exclusive defense and control and cooperate with any reasonable requests assisting our defense and settlement of such matter. This section states our sole liability with respect to, and Customer’s exclusive remedy, with respect to an Action Against Customer. 

14.3 Limitations on Indemnification. (a) An indemnified party will always be free to participate in  the defense of a claim and choose its own counsel if it pays for the cost of such counsel (not  reimbursable under indemnity); and (b) no settlement may be entered into by an indemnifying  party, without the express written consent of the indemnified parties (such consent not to be  unreasonably withheld), if the settlement (i) involves the making of admissions by the indemnified parties, (ii) does not include a full release of liability for the indemnified parties, (iii) includes  payment of money by indemnified party; or (iv) imposes liability not covered by this indemnity or places material restrictions or obligations on the indemnified party. 

  1. Limitation of Liability. EXCEPT FOR EITHER PARTY’S VIOLATION OF THE  INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY SECTION ABOVE OR INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS  HEREUNDER, AND NOTWITHSTANDING THE FORM IN WHICH ANY LEGAL OR  EQUITABLE ACTION MAY BE BROUGHT AGAINST EITHER PARTY HEREUNDER, IN NO  EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OF OR DAMAGE TO  REVENUES, PROFITS, OR GOODWILL, OR FOR OTHER SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL,  INDIRECT, COVER, PUNITIVE, AND/OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND,  RESULTING FROM THE FURNISHING, PERFORMANCE, OR USE OR LOSS OF USE OF THE  SERVICES HEREUNDER, INCLUDING ANY INTERRUPTION OF BUSINESS, WHETHER  RESULTING FROM BREACH OF CONTRACT OR BREACH OF WARRANTY OR  OTHERWISE, WHETHER OR NOT SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY  OF SUCH DAMAGES.

IN NO EVENT SHALL 7T’S LIABILITY FOR ANY AND ALL LOSSES AND DAMAGES TO  CUSTOMER OR ANY THIRD PARTY RESULTING FROM ANY CAUSE WHATSOEVER  HEREUNDER EXCEED THE FEES PAID IN THE PRECEDING TWELVE MONTH PERIOD FOR  THE SERVICES WITH RESPECT TO WHICH LOSSES OR DAMAGES ARE CLAIMED. WE DISCLAIM ALL LIABILITY WITH RESPECT TO THIRD-PARTY PRODUCTS THAT YOU USE.  CUSTOMER UNDERSTANDS AND AGREES THAT ABSENT YOUR AGREEMENT TO THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, WE WOULD NOT PROVIDE THE SERVICES TO YOU. 

7T Services are intended for use by businesses and organizations and not for consumer  purposes. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Customer acknowledges and agrees that  consumer laws do not apply. If however any consumer laws (e.g., in Australia, the Competition  and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)) do apply and cannot otherwise be lawfully excluded, nothing in  these Terms will restrict, exclude or modify any statutory warranties, guarantees, rights or  remedies a User may have, and 7T’s liability is limited (at its option) to the replacement, repair or  resupply of the Services or the pro-rata refund to Customer of pre-paid fees for your subscription  covering the remainder of the term. 

The limitations under this “Limitation of Liability” section apply with respect to all legal theories,  whether in contract, tort or otherwise, and to the extent permitted by law. The provisions of this  “Limitation of Liability” section allocate the risks under this Agreement between the Parties, and  the Parties have relied on these limitations in determining whether to enter into this Agreement and the order for the Services. 

  1. Dispute Resolution. Before commencing any legal enforcement action regarding this  Agreement, arbitration proceeding or other legal action in respect of this Agreement, or before  terminating this Agreement (any such action, a “Litigation”), each Party agrees that it will  promptly notify the other Party in writing of its intention to initiate Litigation and of its reasons for  doing so. No Litigation will be commenced by either Party unless and until (a) a senior  management official of the Party proposing the Litigation reviews the dispute, disagreement or  other reasons underlying the proposed Litigation; (b) the Parties attempt to hold a meeting to try  to resolve the dispute, disagreement or other reasons underlying the proposed Litigation; and (c)  if such a meeting is held, a letter is sent by the Party proposing the Litigation to the other Party  stating that the Parties were unable to resolve the matters in dispute. The Parties agree to waiver  of a jury trial and consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts in Dallas County, Texas to  resolve any dispute hereunder. However, either party may initiate Litigation for equitable relief in  any court to protect against an actual or threatened violation of its confidentiality or intellectual  property rights, and 7T may initiate Litigation in any court to compel payment due hereunder. Except for actions for nonpayment or breach of a party’s proprietary rights, no action, regardless of form, arising out of or relating to this Agreement may be brought by either party more than one (1) year after the cause of action has accrued.
  1. Complete Agreement; Modifications. This Agreement, together with all documents  incorporated herein by reference (including applicable Order Forms), constitutes the complete  and exclusive statement of the Agreement between the Parties and supersedes all terms,  agreements, contracts, proposals or prior expressed or implied agreements or understandings  between the Parties in any format, whether electronic, oral or written, concerning the subject  matter hereof. To the extent of any conflict or inconsistency between documents comprising the  Agreement, the following order of precedence will apply: (1) the terms of any Order Form (if any),  (2) the Terms and (3) any other documents or pages referenced in the Terms (e.g., the Privacy  Policy). Our obligations are not contingent on the delivery of any future functionality or features of the Subscription Service or dependent on any oral or written public comments made by us regarding future functionality or features of the Subscription Service.

17.1 Exclusions. No terms or conditions stated in a Customer purchase order, vendor  onboarding process or web portal, or any other Customer order documentation outside of the  Order Forms will be incorporated into, modify, amend, or form any part of the Agreement, and all  such terms or conditions are rejected and be of no force or effect. Customer will be responsible  for notifying Users of those conflicts or inconsistencies and the terms set forth herein will be  binding on all Users. 

17.2 Modifications. As our business evolves, we may change these Terms or any policies  referenced herein. If we make a material change to the Terms or any referenced policy, we will  provide you with reasonable notice prior to the change taking effect by emailing the notice address  or other associated with your account or posting notification in the Application or on our website.  You can review the most current version of the Terms or the related policies at any time by visiting  the webpage on which these Terms or the referenced policies appear. Any material revisions to  these Terms will become effective on the date set forth in our notice, and all other changes will  become effective on the date we publish the change. If you use the Services after the effective  date of any changes, your use will constitute your acceptance of the changes. If you object to the  material modification, you must notify us in writing within thirty (30) days after receiving notice of  modification. If you give us this notice, your subscription will continue to be governed by the Terms  prior to modification for the remainder of your then-current Subscription Period. If you are outside  the period for providing notice of non-renewal (i.e. you have fewer than thirty (30) days remaining  on your then-current Subscription Period), and you object to the modification(s), please contact  us to discuss your renewed Subscription. Upon any renewal, the then-current Terms published  by us on our website will apply. No other modification, amendment, waiver or other alteration of  this Agreement (including conflicting terms in a purchase order or other customer issued  document) may be made except by mutual agreement in writing.
