Indemnification

Indemnification by SmarterSelect.

SmarterSelect shall indemnify, defend and hold Customer harmless from and against any claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from a claim, suit or proceeding brought against Customer by a third party to the extent it is based on a claim that the Services infringe a United States patent, copyright or trademark (each, an “Infringement Claim”). SmarterSelect’s obligations with respect to this Section 8.1 are conditioned upon: (i) Customer providing SmarterSelect prompt written notice of the Infringement Claim or threat thereof; (ii) Customer giving SmarterSelect full and exclusive authority for the conduct of the defense and settlement of the Infringement Claim and any subsequent appeal; and (iii) Customer giving SmarterSelect all information and assistance reasonably requested by SmarterSelect in connection with the conduct of the defense and settlement of the Infringement Claim and any subsequent appeal.

(b) If an Infringement Claim has been made, or in SmarterSelect’s opinion is likely to be made, SmarterSelect may, at its sole option and expense, either: (i) procure for Customer the right to continue using the Services; or (ii) replace or modify the Services so that it becomes non-infringing. If neither of the foregoing options is reasonably available, SmarterSelect may immediately terminate both Parties’ respective rights and obligations under this Agreement with regard to the Services, and refund to Customer a pro-rata amount of any prepaid Fees actually paid by Customer for the unused portion of such Services.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, SmarterSelect shall have no obligation to indemnify Customer to the extent an Infringement Claim arises from (i) the combination, operation or use of the Services with any other software, data, products or materials not supplied by SmarterSelect, (ii) the use of the Services other than as expressly provided in the Site or otherwise in violation of the terms and conditions of this Agreement; (iii) the alteration or modification of the Services; (iv) SmarterSelect’s compliance with Customer’s designs, specifications or instructions; or (v) Customer’s continued use of the Services after SmarterSelect has informed Customer of modifications or changes to the Services required to avoid the Infringement Claim.

THIS SECTION SETS FORTH SMARTERSELECT’S ENTIRE LIABILITY TO CUSTOMER AND CUSTOMER’S SOLE REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY THIRD PARTY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY CLAIMS.

Indemnification by Customer. Except for SmarterSelect’s indemnity obligations set forth above, Customer shall indemnify, defend and hold SmarterSelect harmless from and against all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from a claim, suit or proceeding brought against SmarterSelect by a third party arising out of or related to the use of the Services by the Customer or its permitted users, Customer’s provision of or SmarterSelect’s use of any data, documentation or other materials provided by Customer under this Agreement and/or or Customer’s breach of this Agreement. 

Term; Termination

  1. Term. This Agreement shall commence on the date Customer assents to this Agreement by clicking “Accept” to the Terms of Service and continues until the expiration or termination of Customer’s subscription or at the election of SmarterSelect in its total discretion. 
  2. Effects of Termination. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement, all license rights granted by SmarterSelect to Customer pursuant to the Agreement shall terminate and Customer shall pay SmarterSelect in full for all Services accessed or delivered.  

WARRANTIES; DISCLAIMER

  1. Customer Warranties. Customer represents and warrants that (i) it shall enter into an agreement or agreements with each applicant that governs all aspects of Customer’s use, retention and disposal of Customer Data or other information provided by an applicant to Customer or that Customer accesses, including, without limitation, privacy policies, confidentiality agreements and terms of service (collectively, “Information Agreements”); (ii) it will only utilize data from applicants in the manner it is allowed access to such content under its agreements with its applicants; and (iii) its use of the Services shall at all times comply with any necessary pre-registrations, consents and authorizations and applicable law with respect to applicant data and any interactions with applicants.
  2. Disclaimer. UNLESS OTHERWISE SET FORTH HEREIN, THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANT-ABILITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE (EVEN IF THAT PURPOSE IS KNOWN TO SMARTERSELECT), OR ARISING FROM A COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE, OR TRADE PRACTICE. SMARTERSELECT DOES NOT REPRESENT OR WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES ARE COMPLETE OR FREE FROM ERROR OR WILL BE AVAILABLE 24 HOURS PER DAY, 7 DAYS PER WEEK, AND DOES NOT ASSUME, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS, ANY LIABILITY TO ANY PERSON OR ENTITY FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE CAUSED BY ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE SERVICES, WHETHER SUCH ERRORS OR OMISSIONS RESULT FROM NEGLIGENCE, ACCIDENT, OR OTHER CAUSE.

THE EXISTENCE OF MULTIPLE CLAIMS DOES NOT ENLARGE THE LIMIT. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL SMARTERSELECT, OR ANY PROVIDER OF INFORMATION USED BY SMARTERSELECT IN PREPARING OR PROVIDING THE SERVICES, BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS OR REVENUE, OR LOST OR DAMAGED DATA, WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF SMARTERSELECT IS AWARE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGES.

Dispute Resolution and Governing Law, Jurisdiction and Costs

  1. Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed, interpreted, and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas without reference to its conflicts or choice of law principles. Any arbitration or court proceeding will take place in the State of Texas and Customer hereby consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state or Federal courts in Dallas County, Texas. Customer irrevocably submits and consents to the personal jurisdiction of such courts. Each Party hereby expressly and irrevocably waives the right to a jury trial. The prevailing Party shall be awarded its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs in any proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement.
  2. Dispute Resolution. To the extent feasible, the Parties desire to resolve any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to Customer’s use of or access to the Services, this Agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity of this Agreement, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this Agreement to arbitration (a “Dispute”) through discussions and negotiations between each other. The Parties agree to attempt to resolve any Disputes by negotiation with the other Party (by phone, electronic correspondence, or written correspondence). If we are not able to resolve any Dispute ourselves, Customer and SmarterSelect agree to resolve such Dispute through confidential binding arbitration as set forth below.
  3. Binding Arbitration. If Customer and SmarterSelect are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, either Customer or SmarterSelect may elect to have the Dispute (except those Disputes expressly excluded below) finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. Any election to arbitrate by one Party shall be final and binding on the other. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and, where appropriate, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (“AAA Consumer Rules”) both of which are available at the AAA website, www.adr.org. The determination of whether a Dispute is subject to arbitration shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and determined by a court rather than an arbitrator. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone or online. The arbitrator will make a decision in writing but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by a Party. The arbitrator must follow applicable laws, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement Customer and SmarterSelect may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
  4. Waiver of Rights. Customer hereby agrees that Customer understand the consequences of agreeing to binding arbitration under this Section, including giving up any constitutional rights to have the Dispute determined by a court of law or by a jury and any right that Customer may have under Article 13 of the State Bar Act, where applicable, to have a trial de novo by a court after nonbinding arbitration of a dispute concerning fees or costs; that discovery of information in arbitration may be limited; and that the arbitration decision will be final and binding, except to the limited extent that judicial review might be available. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS OR THROUGH PARTICIPATION IN A CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. CLAIMS OR DISPUTES OF MORE THAN ONE USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER USER.
