Terms of Service

Important Notice

The following terms of service apply to your use of the Liquid UI Client. Please read them carefully together with the Order and the Privacy Policy. In addition to agreeing to these Terms of Service, before you are entitled to use the Liquid UI Clients, you must enter into one or more separate orders ("Order(s)") with the Company governing payment and use parameters for Liquid UI Client. These Terms of Service, together with such Order(s), are collectively referred to as the "Agreement".

Synactive, Inc. (together with its affiliates, "Company") owns and operates a proprietary native iOS/Android/Windows CE application that connects to your SAP ERP system directly, as well as any modifications, enhancements, and/or derivative works thereof, including the websites used in connection with the foregoing (the "Liquid UI Client"). Company offers a full functionality version of Liquid UI Client for the Fees described herein and in each Order (number of users, length of service, the "Synactive Platform"). The term Liquid UI Client includes all versions thereof, including the Trial Editions. Company also provides associated services in connection with Liquid UI Client (the "Services").

These Terms of Service apply to any user of Liquid UI Client, which includes the entity completing and submitting the Order and/or registration information ("Customer") for Liquid UI Client account, as well as each Authorized User (defined in Section 1). If Customer does not accept all terms of the Agreement and Privacy Policy, then Customer may not use Liquid UI Client.

Use of Liquid UI Client

Company grants Customer and its Authorized Users a limited, nonexclusive, nontransferable license (without a right to sublicense) to access and use Liquid UI Client for the Subscription Term of the applicable Order solely for Customer's internal business, customer relations, and management purposes in connection with the Permitted Use. "Permitted Use" means Customer's use of Liquid UI Client and Services to manage and perform transactions on Customer's SAP ERP system, including but not limited to printing, scanning, and use of the camera to upload images, to enable connections to SAP ERP directly from Authorized Users' phones and tablets. "Authorized Users" are those individuals who are Customer employees or contractors and who Customer authorizes to use Liquid UI Client.

Customer is responsible for all use of Liquid UI Client by its Authorized Users and agrees that it will not provide or permit access to Liquid UI Client (including, without limitation, the user interface and reporting) to anyone other than Authorized Users who require such access to do their job. Customer will enable Liquid UI Client to access only those systems of Customer or any third party for which Customer has all necessary rights and authority.

Customer shall not, and shall not allow its Authorized Users to:

  • (i) copy, reverse engineer, modify, decompile, or disassemble Liquid UI Client;
  • (ii) attempt to probe, scan, penetrate, breach, or test the vulnerability of any system or network or Liquid UI Client's security or authentication measures, whether by passive or intrusive techniques.

Customer may use Liquid UI Client only for the Permitted Use, in accordance with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations (collectively, "Applicable Laws"). All right, title, and interest in and to Liquid UI Client will remain Company's sole and exclusive property. Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to correct material defects in Liquid UI Client that have been brought to its attention, provided that such defects: (a) are sufficiently described in writing and reproducible by Company under test conditions at Company's facility, and (b) are not the result of any Liquid UI Client use not consistent with this Agreement and/or user instructions.

Fees

Customer will pay all fees outlined in the applicable Order (the "Fees"). Customer will pay Fees using the payment method specified in the Order, including by authorizing payment by a valid credit card by completing and submitting to Company the credit card authorization form attached to the Order. Upon approval by Company of such credit card authorization, the Fees will be charged to Customer's credit card. Any change in payment method will require the parties to execute a new or amended Order, and may require a change in frequency of payment. If the invoice payment method is selected in the Order, Fees are due thirty (30) days from invoice date. Customer agrees and understands that failure to pay all Fees owed when due will entitle Company to suspend access to Liquid UI Client, terminate the Agreement, and/or refer any past due balance to a collection agency and/or attorney.

The Fees do not include any applicable taxes on the Customer's use of Liquid UI Client and the Services. To the extent it is determined that any taxes, including without limitation, sales or use taxes, ad valorem taxes, duties, licenses, or levies (excluding taxes based on Company's income) are imposed on the sale or use of Liquid UI Client and the Services by Customer:

  • (a) Customer shall pay to the taxing authorities all such charges as timely as levied by taxing authorities; or
  • (b) If Company has the legal obligation to pay for which Customer is responsible as a result of the license of Liquid UI Client and/or Services hereunder, Customer will reimburse Company for the full amount thereof within thirty (30) days of invoice date, and in the cases of clause (a) and (b) without deduction from the Fees owed, or
  • (c) Customer shall timely provide Company with a valid tax exemption certificate acceptable to the relevant taxing authorities.

Term; Termination

The term of these Terms of Service (the "Term") will begin on the date of Customer acceptance of these Terms of Service and will continue for the stated term of any Order entered into by the parties, subject to earlier termination as provided herein and/or in an Order. The term of each Order (the "Subscription Term") will begin on the Subscription Start Date and end on the Subscription End Date as stated in such Order (the "Initial Subscription Term"), subject to earlier termination as provided herein and/or in such Order.

The Initial Subscription Term shall automatically renew for subsequent term(s) for a duration equal to the Initial Subscription Term ("Renewal Subscription Term"), unless either party gives the other party notice of non-renewal at least sixty (60) days before the end of the then-current Initial Subscription Term or Renewal Subscription Term. Company shall have the right to increase the Fees for each Renewal Subscription Term by an amount not to exceed 5% of the applicable Fees for the prior Subscription Term.

Either party may terminate the Agreement in the event of a material breach by the other party, which is not cured within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice describing such breach; provided that any breach of Sections 1 or 2 will have a five (5) day cure period. Notices of termination or non-renewal are effective only if given by a Customer employee with authority to make such an election. Any attempt by Customer to terminate the Agreement except as permitted herein, will be of no force or effect; Customer will continue to have access to and use of Liquid UI Client hereunder and will remain liable for the Fee throughout the Term.

Company may disable Customer's access code and suspend its access to Liquid UI Client at any time in the event Company reasonably suspects there has been a violation of Section 1 or 2, or if the provision of Services and/or use of Liquid UI Client results in high levels of complaints or other negative results, as determined by Company in its reasonable discretion, and in such event, Company will use reasonable efforts to give Customer notice after such suspension.

Upon termination or expiration of the Agreement for any reason (a) Customer and its Authorized Users will cease to have access to and use of Liquid UI Client and Services; (b) upon receipt of a Customer request within thirty (30) days of termination or expiration; and (c) the last sentence of this Section 3, and Sections 4 - 8 will survive, as well as any other provisions which by their terms or sense are intended to survive.

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted under applicable laws, under no circumstances, including negligence, shall Company and its directors, officers, employees, or agents be liable for any incidental, special or consequential damages (including damages for loss of business profits, business interruption, loss of business information and the like) arising out of the use of or inability to use the software or its documentation, even if Company or its authorized representative has been advised of the possibility of such damages. In no event shall Company's total liability to Customer for all damages, losses, and causes of action (whether in contract, tort, including negligence, or otherwise) arising out of the use of or inability to use the software or its documentation, exceed the amount paid by Customer for the Software and its documentation.

Company entities disclaim all warranties, either express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, title, and fitness for any particular purpose.

Indemnification

Customer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company Entities from and against any damages, losses, costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees), or other expenses arising from third party claims, actions, suits or proceedings against any Company Entity (a) alleging Customer's or its Authorized Users' breach of this Agreement, including allegations of use of Liquid UI Client or Services in any manner not permitted hereunder.

Company agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Customer Entities from and against any damages, losses, costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees), or other expenses arising from third party claims, actions, suits or proceedings against any Customer Entity (x) alleging that Liquid UI Client when used by Company and its Authorized Users solely as permitted by this Agreement infringes any U.S. copyright, trademark or trade secret, or (y) alleging Company's breach of Section 2 of this Terms of Service.

The party seeking indemnity ("Indemnified Party") will give the party from whom indemnity is sought ("Indemnifying Party") timely written notice of the claim for which indemnity is sought and control of the disposition thereof; provided, that failure to give timely notice will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations except to the extent that such untimely notice materially impairs the Indemnifying Party's ability to defend such claim. The Indemnified Party will cooperate with the Indemnifying Party's reasonable requests (at the Indemnifying Party's expense) in connection with the defense and settlement of such claim. Neither party will settle any claim for which indemnity is sought unless: (i) such settlement includes an unconditional release of the other party from all liability on the claim, or (ii) the other party gives its prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld. The indemnity provided under this section shall not apply to any version of Liquid UI Client other than the most recent version, nor to any claim of infringement arising from Customer's modification of the Liquid UI Client or from the combination of the Software with other software not licensed by Company.

Confidentiality; Publicity

The receiving party shall use measures at least as protective as those it uses for its own confidential information (but no less than reasonable measures) to keep confidential and not to disclose to any third party any Confidential Information of the disclosing party, except to those of the receiving party's agents, representatives and employees (collectively, "representatives") who need to know such Confidential Information, who are informed of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and who agree to be bound by terms of confidentiality at least as protective as those in this Agreement. The receiving party shall not use any Confidential Information, directly or indirectly, for any purpose other than as necessary to perform its obligations and exercise its rights under this Agreement. Each party shall be responsible for any breach of this Agreement by its representatives, which for purposes of Customer will include its Authorized Users. If a receiving party becomes legally compelled to disclose any Confidential Information, it shall provide the disclosing party with prompt prior written notice to the extent legally permitted and assistance (at the disclosing party's expense) in obtaining a protective order.

(c) The failure of either party to enforce any provision of this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of such party's rights to enforce the provision subsequently, and a waiver of breach shall not be a waiver of any other or subsequent breach.
