Customer shall cooperate with the audit, including by providing access to any books, computers, records or other information that relate to use of the Services. In the event that an audit reveals use of the Services in violation of the terms of this Agreement, Customer will reimburse Atolio for the reasonable cost of the audit, in addition to such other rights and remedies that Atolio may have.

NON-ATOLIO APPLICATIONS
Non-Atolio Applications. Non-Atolio Applications may be integrated with the Services to enhance and supplement the Services and offer additional functionality. Customer is solely responsible for the acquisition of any Non-Atolio Application, and any exchange of data between Customer and any such Non-Atolio Application is solely between Customer and the Non-Atolio Application. Atolio does not warrant or support Non-Atolio Applications, whether or not they are designated by Atolio as interoperable with the Services or otherwise. Atolio is not responsible for any access to or disclosure, modification, or deletion of Customer Data resulting from Customer’s use of any Non-Atolio Application.
Integration with Non-Atolio Applications. The Services may contain features designed to interoperate with Non-Atolio Applications. Atolio cannot guarantee the continued availability of any Service features that interoperate with Non-Atolio Applications and may cease providing them without Customer being entitled to any refund, credit, or other compensation, if for example and without limitation, the provider of a Non-Atolio Application ceases to make the Non-Atolio Application available for interoperation with the corresponding Service features in a manner acceptable to Atolio.
Removal of Non-Atolio Applications. If Customer receives notice that a Non-Atolio Application must be removed, modified, and/or disabled to avoid violating applicable law or third-party rights, Customer will promptly do so. If Customer does not take required action in accordance with the above, or if in Atolio’s reasonable judgment continued violation is likely to reoccur, Atolio may disable the Software integrated with such Non-Atolio Application. If requested by Atolio, Customer shall confirm such deletion and discontinuance of use of such Non-Atolio Application in writing and Atolio shall be authorized to provide a copy of such confirmation to any such third party claimant or governmental authority, as applicable.
AI. Prior to integrating any AI with the Services, Customer must ensure (i) Customer has procured a suitable license or subscription to the AI in order to integrate the AI with the Services; (ii) the AI meets the Atolio system requirements; and (iii) the AI meets Atolio’s security requirements.
FEES AND PAYMENT
Fees. Customer will pay all fees specified in Order Forms. Except as otherwise specified herein or in an Order Form, (a) fees are based on Services subscriptions purchased, as adjusted for any Overage, (b) payment obligations are non-cancelable and fees paid are non-refundable, (iii) quantities purchased cannot be decreased during the relevant subscription term; and (iv) all fees are payable in United States dollars.
Invoicing and Payment. Customer will provide Atolio with valid and updated credit card information, or with a valid purchase order or alternative document reasonably acceptable to Atolio. If Customer provides credit card information to Atolio, Customer authorizes Atolio to charge such credit card for all fees dues hereunder. Such charges shall be made in advance, either annually 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, Atolio will invoice Customer in advance and otherwise in accordance with the relevant Order Form. Unless otherwise stated in the Order Form, invoiced fees (including invoices for any Overage) are due net 30 days from the invoice date. Customer is responsible for providing complete and accurate billing and contact information to Atolio and notifying Atolio of any changes to such information.
Overdue Charges. If any invoiced amount is not received by Atolio by the due date, then without limiting Atolio’s rights or remedies, (a) 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, and/or (b) Atolio may condition future subscription renewals and Order Forms on payment terms shorter than those specified in the “Invoicing and Payment” section above.
Suspension of Service and Acceleration. If any charge owed by Customer under this Agreement is 30 days or more overdue (or 10 or more days overdue in the case of amounts Customer has authorized Atolio to charge to Customer’s credit card), Atolio may, without limiting its other rights and remedies, accelerate Customer’s unpaid fee obligations under such agreements so that all such obligations become immediately due and payable, and suspend Services until such amounts are paid in full, provided that, other than for customers paying by credit card or direct debit whose payment has been declined, Atolio will give Customer at least 10 days’ prior notice that its account is overdue, in accordance with the “Manner of Giving Notice” section below for billing notices, before suspending services to Customer.
Taxes. Atolio’s fees do not include any taxes, levies, duties or similar governmental assessments of any nature, including, for example, value-added, sales, use or withholding taxes, assessable by any jurisdiction whatsoever (collectively, “Taxes”). Customer is responsible for paying all Taxes associated with its purchases hereunder. If Atolio has the legal obligation to pay or collect Taxes for which Customer is responsible under this section, Atolio will invoice Customer and Customer will pay that amount unless Customer provides Atolio with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority. For clarity, Atolio is solely responsible for taxes assessable against it based on its income, property and employees.

Subject to the limited rights expressly granted hereunder, Atolio and its Affiliates and its and their licensors reserve all of their right, title, and interest in and to the Services (including the Software), including all of their related intellectual property rights, and all modifications and customizations made thereto in the provision of the Services to Customer, if any (excluding Customer’s trademarks, service marks and pre-existing intellectual property rights).

Definition of Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” means all 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 of disclosure. Confidential Information of Customer includes Customer Data; Confidential Information of Atolio includes the Services, and the terms and conditions of this Agreement and all Order Forms (including pricing). Confidential Information of each party includes business and marketing plans, technology and technical information, product plans and designs, and business processes disclosed by such party. However, Confidential Information does not include any information that (a) is or becomes generally known to the public without the Receiving Party’s breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party, (b) was known to the Receiving Party prior to its disclosure by the Disclosing Party without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party, (c) is received by the Receiving Party from a third party without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party, or (d) was independently developed by the Receiving Party without use of or reference to the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information.
Protection of Confidential Information. As between the parties, each party retains all ownership rights in and to its Confidential Information. The Receiving Party will use the same degree of care that it uses to protect the confidentiality of its own confidential information of like kind (but not less than reasonable care) to (a) not use any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party for any purpose outside the scope of this Agreement and (b) except as otherwise authorized by the Disclosing Party in writing, limit access to Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to those of its and its Affiliates’ employees and contractors 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. Neither party will disclose the terms of this Agreement or any Order Form to any third party other than its Affiliates, legal counsel and accountants without the other party’s prior written consent, provided that a party that makes any such disclosure to its Affiliate, legal counsel or accountants will remain responsible for such Affiliate’s, legal counsel’s or accountant’s compliance with this “Confidentiality” section.
Compelled Disclosure. The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to the extent compelled by law to do so, provided that 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.
