Any such use shall be in compliance with the Terms, the GDPR, and the Service Provider’s privacy policy. The Service Provider acknowledges that it has no right to disclose, replicate, or use the Client Data for any purpose other than as expressly permitted in these Terms.

Any modifications to a Service Plan, inclusive of adjustments to Fees, shall take effect at the commencement of the subsequent billing cycle, whether monthly or annual. For example, Capture and Gravity cabinet software may be subscribed to on either a monthly or annual basis, while the Storeroom App is offered exclusively on a monthly cycle.

- All sums payable under this Agreement shall be paid in euros (EUR) and shall be paid in full without any set-off, counterclaim, deduction or withholding unless required by law or unless the Service Level Agreement requires otherwise.
- The Service Provider reserves the right to adjust the Fee rates and amend the Terms at its discretion at any time. In the event of such an adjustment, the Service Provider is obligated to provide the Client with a written notice at least 30 days prior to the implementation of the new rates and amended Terms. Should the Client find the revised Fee amount and the amended Terms unacceptable, it retains the right to terminate these Terms by unsubscribing from the Platform via the Account.

Subject to Sections 1 and 9.2, the maximum aggregate liability of the Service Provider shall in no event exceed the amount that is equal to the Fees the Client paid to the Service Provider in the course of the previous three months from the occurrence of the event that resulted in the Service Provider’s liability, or if fewer than three months have passed since the Effective Date, 100% of the Fees attributable to the full calendar months that have passed since the Effective Date.

If the Service Provider terminates these Terms and the Client’s access to the Platform without any cause, it refunds the Client for the duration of the subscription that remains unused due to the Terms being terminated.
- Termination of the Terms does not release the Parties from their outstanding obligations arising from the Terms and does not affect the rights or remedies of a Party arising out of breach of the Terms.
- Termination of these Terms shall, however, not affect the validity of such terms which by their nature survive the termination .

- Availability;
- Incident Management;
- Support;
- Maintenance and Updates.
- Notwithstanding any other provision of this SLA, the Service Provider’s obligations concerning Availability and Incident Management, and the Client’s corresponding remedies, shall only apply if the Client’s personnel—who are presumed to have a reasonable level of technical proficiency—have first made reasonable attempts to resolve the availability issue or incident using appropriate means available to them (for example, installing software updates, reconnecting devices, or restarting hardware).
- If the Service Provider provides a designated communication channel, integrated with the Platform interface, for exchanging information pertaining to this SLA, the Client shall use that channel to submit all information regarding availability, support, and incident management.

- In the event that the Service Provider fails to meet the Availability, Service Credits will be granted to the Client at the latter’s request.

- To be eligible for Service Credits, the Client must notify the Service Provider of its intent to claim such Service Credits within fifteen (15) days following the end of the calendar month during which the Client first became entitled to the Service Credit. Failure to comply with this notification requirement within the specified timeframe will result in the Client forfeiting the right to receive the Service Credit for that particular incident.
