- Confidentiality. For the term of this Agreement, and surviving expiration or termination of this Agreement for up to three (3) years after disclosure of the Confidential Information, the party receiving Confidential Information (the “Recipient”) from the other party (the “Discloser”) will use it solely to perform the rights and obligations provided under this Agreement, and not for any other purpose without the Discloser’s prior written consent. The Recipient will hold in confidence, and not disclose to any third party, any of the Discloser’s Confidential Information.

The Recipient will notify the Discloser immediately on becoming aware of any unauthorized use or release of the Discloser’s Confidential Information. The Recipient may disclose the Discloser’s Confidential Information to those of its Affiliates, directors, advisors, employees, or contractors (collectively, “Representatives”) who have a need to know such Confidential Information to perform under or in relation to this Agreement, but only if such Representatives are subject to a binding, written agreement no less protective of the Discloser than the confidentiality terms of this Agreement. The Recipient will, at the Discloser’s request or on termination of this Agreement, return all originals, copies, and summaries of Confidential Information and other tangible materials and devices provided to the Recipient as Confidential Information, or at the Discloser’s option, certify destruction of same (although nothing in this sentence may be construed to require ThoughtSpot to purge archived backup media).

The Recipient’s obligations under this Section 6.1 will not apply to Confidential Information that is required be disclosed by the Recipient to comply with a court order or Law, but only if the Recipient promptly notifies the Discloser to enable the Discloser to seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy, and takes commercially reasonable and lawful actions to avoid or minimize the extent of, and to obtain confidential treatment for, any such disclosure.
- Ownership. As between the parties, Customer, Customer Affiliates, and its and their suppliers and licensors will retain all right, title, and interest in and to all IPR in Customer Data. As between the parties, ThoughtSpot, ThoughtSpot Affiliates, and its and their suppliers and licensors own all right, title, and interest in and to all IPR in (and in all copies of) the Application and Documentation, regardless of the form or media in or on which the original or other copies may subsequently exist.

The Application is licensed and not sold.

To the extent that Customer provides such voluntary Feedback to ThoughtSpot, ThoughtSpot may use it for any purpose without obligation of any kind.
- Third-Party Claims.
- Obligation. ThoughtSpot will defend Customer from and against any claim or demand made by an unaffiliated third party alleging that the Application, when used as authorized in this Agreement and unmodified by Customer, infringes IPR owned by such third party and will indemnify Customer from and against any damages and costs awarded against Customer or agreed in settlement by ThoughtSpot (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) resulting from such claim or demand. If Customer’s use of the Application is (or in ThoughtSpot’s opinion is likely to be) enjoined, if required by settlement or if ThoughtSpot determines such actions are reasonably necessary to avoid material liability, ThoughtSpot may, in its sole discretion: (a) substitute products of substantially similar functionality; (b) procure for Customer the right to continue using the Application; or if (a) and (b) are not commercially reasonable, (c) terminate this Agreement and refund to Customer the fees paid to ThoughtSpot for the remaining portion of the License Term following the date of termination. ThoughtSpot will have no obligation in this Section 7.1 for any claim or demand to the extent arising from use of the Application combined or integrated with other products, processes, or materials where the infringement would not have arisen but for such combination or integration or use of an unsupported version.
- Process. ThoughtSpot’s indemnification obligations are expressly conditioned on Customer: (a) providing prompt notification of any actual or threatened claim or demand; (b) giving ThoughtSpot sole control of the defense and any related settlement negotiations; and (c) providing all necessary cooperation with the defense at ThoughtSpot’s reasonable request and expense. Failure by Customer to notify ThoughtSpot of a claim under this Section 7 will not relieve ThoughtSpot of its obligations therein; however ThoughtSpot will not be liable for any litigation expenses that Customer incurred prior to the time when notice is given or for any damages or costs resulting from any material prejudice caused by the delay or failure to provide notice to ThoughtSpot in accordance with this Section 7. ThoughtSpot will not stipulate, acknowledge, or admit fault or liability on Customer’s behalf, or publicize any settlement, without Customer’s prior written consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed). Any indemnification obligation in this Section 7 will not apply if Customer settles or makes any admission with respect to a claim without ThoughtSpot’s prior written consent. This Section 7 (Third-Party Claims) states ThoughtSpot’s entire liability and Customer’s exclusive remedy for third-party claims and third-party actions.

Use, duplication, and disclosure by U.S. Department of Defense agencies is subject solely to the software license terms contained in this Agreement, as stated in DFARS 227.7202 or successor regulations. U.S. Government rights will apply only to the specific agency and program for which the Application is obtained.
- Term and Termination.
- Term and Termination. This Agreement begins on the Effective Date and continues until terminated under its terms. Either party may terminate this Agreement or any Order Form in its entirety: (a) on 30 days’ prior written notice, if there are no Order Forms then in effect; (b) immediately on written notice if the other becomes the subject of a petition in bankruptcy or any proceeding related to its insolvency, receivership, or liquidation, in any jurisdiction, that is not dismissed within 60 days of its commencement or an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or (c) immediately on written notice if the other party materially breaches this Agreement and has not cured the breach within 30 days after notice from the non-breaching party. Consulting Services are separately ordered from, and are not required for use of, the Application. A breach by a party of its obligations with respect to Consulting Services will not alone constitute a breach by that party of its obligations with respect to the Application even if purchased in the same Order Form.
- Effect. On termination of this Agreement for any reason or expiration of the License Term without renewal: (a) all Order Forms and all use rights and access granted by ThoughtSpot will automatically terminate; (b) the parties will destroy all copies of Confidential Information in their possession, custody, or control; and (c) if requested, either party will certify such return or destruction in writing. Within 30 days after the effective date of proper termination for ThoughtSpot’s material breach, ThoughtSpot will refund any prepaid fees received by ThoughtSpot covering that part of the License Term for the affected license, if any, remaining after such effective date. If termination is for Customer’s breach, all remaining amounts are accelerated and deemed due and payable as of the termination date.
- Survival. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the following will survive termination of this Agreement: Sections 1 (Definitions), 2.2 (Invoices and Payment), 2.3 (Taxes), 2.5 (Evaluation Access), 3.4 (Restrictions), 4.3 (Disclaimers), 6 (Proprietary Rights), 7 (Third-Party Claims) (for one year following the date of termination), 8 (Limitations of Liability), 10 (Term and Termination), and 11 (General).
- General.
- Announcements. Neither party will issue any press releases or announcements, or any marketing, advertising, or other promotional materials, related to this Agreement, or referencing the other party, nor use the other party’s logo, trademarks and service marks, without the other party’s prior written approval.
- Waiver; Amendment. No delay or failure by either party to exercise any right under this Agreement will waive that or any other right. A waiver of any breach of this Agreement is not a waiver of any other breach. Any waiver must be in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party. Any amendment to this Agreement must be in writing and signed by authorized representatives of both parties.
- Assignment. Neither party will assign, delegate, or otherwise transfer this Agreement, or any of its rights or duties under it, to a third party without the other’s prior written consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed. Any purported transaction in breach of this Section 11.3 is material and is void. Each party is, however, deemed to have consented to any such assignment, delegation, or transfer to: (a) an Affiliate; or (b) any entity that acquires all or substantially all of its capital stock or assets related to this Agreement through purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise, but only if such entity is not a direct competitor of the non-assigning party. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement will bind and benefit the parties, their successors, and permitted assigns.
- Notices. All notices and other communications under this Agreement will be: (a) in writing; (b) in English; and (c) deemed given when delivered (or the first business day after delivery with confirmation of receipt, for notices permitted by email). Notices under this Agreement will be sufficient only if: (i) personally delivered; (ii) delivered by a major commercial rapid delivery courier service with tracking capabilities; (iii) mailed by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, to a party at the address stated in the applicable Order Form (or at such address as the recipient has notified the other party of, before notice was sent); or (iv) sent via email, if the recipient’s email address is provided in this Agreement (but email will not be sufficient for notices regarding a claim, demand, or alleged breach). All notices except for ordinary business communications will be cc’d to the address stated in the applicable Order Form.
- Dispute Resolution. This Agreement and performance under it will be governed by the substantive laws of the State of California, disregarding its conflict of law rules. If federal jurisdiction exists over any suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the parties consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in San Francisco, California. If not, the parties consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the California state courts sitting in Santa Clara County, California. In any such suit, action, or proceeding, the prevailing party may recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs, and other expenses, including those on appeal or in a bankruptcy action.
- Force Majeure. Neither party will be responsible for any delay or failure in its performance of any obligation under this Agreement (other than payment) due to causes beyond its reasonable control, but only if the party invoking this Section 11.6 promptly notifies the other party and resumes performance promptly when conditions allow it to do so.
- Relationship. The parties are independent contractors. Nothing in this Agreement will be construed to create a partnership, joint venture, agency, or other relationship. Neither party has any right or authority to assume or create any obligation of any kind, express or implied, in the other party’s name or on its behalf. There are no third-party beneficiaries to this Agreement. ThoughtSpot’s licensors will have no liability of any kind under this Agreement. ThoughtSpot’s liability with respect to any third-party software embedded in the Application will be subject to Section 8 (Limitations of Liability).
- Severability. If any part of this Agreement is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, that part will be deemed reformed to effectuate the parties’ intentions, and the rest of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect.
- Execution and Construction. This Agreement is effective only when executed by facsimile, via electronic signature service, or in counterparts, which together will be deemed the entire agreement. Such execution requirement is, without limitation, a material term. Section headings are intended solely for convenience and will not affect the meaning of this Agreement. This Agreement will be interpreted according to its plain meaning without presuming it should favor either party. Unless stated or context requires otherwise: (a) all internal references are to this Agreement and its parties; (b) first-level section references (e.g., “as provided in Section 1”) includes all subordinate subsections (e.g., 1.1, 1.2, etc.) within that section; (c) all monetary amounts are expressed and, if applicable, payable, in U.S. dollars; (d) “days” means calendar days; (e) “may” means that the applicable party has a right, but not a concomitant duty; (f) “partner,” if used in this Agreement or related documents, is used in its common, marketing sense and does not imply a partnership; (g) “notify” means to give notice under (and “notice” means a notice that complies with) Section 11.4 (Notices); (h) “current” or “currently” means “as of the Effective Date” but “then-current” means the present time when the applicable right is exercised or performance rendered or measured; (i) URLs are understood to also refer to successors, localizations, and information or resources linked from within websites at such URLs; (j) lists of examples following “including”, “e.g.”, “such as”, “excludes”, “for example”, or similar words are deemed to include “without limitation”; (k) the word “or” is deemed to be an inclusive “or”; and (l) a party’s choices under this Agreement are in its sole discretion. Any translation of the English-language version of this Agreement is for convenience only, and the English-language version will govern. If Customer is domiciled in Canada, the parties expressly wish to execute this Agreement and any associated documentation in English.
- Entire Agreement. Unless a signed master license agreement governing access to and use of the product that is the subject of this Agreement is in effect between Customer and ThoughtSpot, this Agreement sets forth the complete and exclusive agreement between the parties relating to its subject matter and supersedes all prior oral and written agreements, understandings, and communications (including any requests for quote, requests for information, requests for proposal, or the like), click-through agreements and embedded end-user license agreements, regarding its subject matter. If a signed master license agreement governing Customer’s software license purchases is in effect, then that agreement will govern and the terms of this Agreement will not supersede its terms. Purchase orders issued by Customer are for Customer’s internal purposes only and ThoughtSpot rejects, and in the future is deemed to have rejected, any purchase order terms. Invoices issued by ThoughtSpot will be effective solely to specify the charges for the Application licenses and Consulting Services. All other terms and conditions printed or included on, or referenced in, such purchase orders, invoices, and other ordering documents or correspondence, that purport to add to or modify the terms of this Agreement are expressly rejected by ThoughtSpot and will be of no force or effect.
