Further, some Non-Klaviyo Services may require Customer or Klaviyo to provide certain Customer Data that Klaviyo is processing on Customer’s behalf back to the Provider. In these cases, Klaviyo considers Customer’s request to integrate with the Non-Klaviyo Services as instruction to provide this data to the Provider according to the Provider’s terms and conditions. If Customer does not want this data to be provided to the Provider, Customer will immediately request the suspension of the integration with the respective Provider.

4. USE OF THE SERVICES

　4.1. Setup Responsibilities. Customer shall be responsible for setting up and configuring the Services, including without limitation any provisioning of access to the Services to its Authorized Users.  Customer shall be responsible for obtaining and maintaining, at Customer’s expense, all of the necessary telecommunications, computer hardware, software, services and Internet connectivity required by Customer or any Authorized User to access the Services from the Internet. In the event that Klaviyo assists or advises Customer with any Services setup, configuration or support, in no event shall such assistance or advice be construed as legal advice.

　4.2. Customer Account.

5. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

　5.1. Ownership. Customer acknowledges and agrees that the Services (including the Documentation) are protected by copyright and other laws relating to Intellectual Property Rights, and that the Services embody valuable confidential information of Klaviyo and its suppliers, the development of which required the expenditure of considerable time and financial resources. All right, title, and interest in and to the Services, and all worldwide Intellectual Property Rights therein and associated therewith, are the exclusive property of Klaviyo and its suppliers. All rights in and to the Services not expressly granted to Customer in this Agreement are reserved by Klaviyo and its suppliers. Except as expressly set forth herein, no express or implied license or right of any kind is granted to Customer regarding the Services, or any part thereof, including any right to obtain possession of any software, source code, data or other technical material related to the Services.

　5.2. Continuous Development. Customer acknowledges that Klaviyo may continually develop, deliver and provide to Customer on-going innovation to the Services in the form of new features, functionality, and efficiencies. Accordingly, Klaviyo reserves the right to modify the Services from time to time. Some modifications will be provided to Customer at no additional charge. In the event Klaviyo adds additional functionality to a particular Service, Klaviyo may condition the implementation of such modifications on Customer’s payment of additional fees, provided that Customer may continue to use the version of the Services that Klaviyo makes generally available (without such features) without paying additional fees.

　5.3. Feedback. In the event that Customer or its Authorized Users provide any comments or suggestions in connection with the Services, whether written or oral (collectively, the “Feedback”), Klaviyo, in its sole discretion, shall be entitled to use the Feedback without restriction, and such Feedback will not be treated as confidential to Customer. Customer hereby grants Klaviyo, on behalf of itself and its Authorized Users, a worldwide, non-exclusive, irrevocable, perpetual, royalty-free right and license to incorporate the Feedback into Klaviyo products and services.

　5.4. Aggregated Data. Klaviyo may collect and derive from Customer Data aggregated data that does not identify Customer, any third-party entity or any natural persons, and use and disclose such aggregated data for Klaviyo’s legitimate business purposes, which may include but is not limited to Services improvement, service and product development, research and marketing. Additionally, Klaviyo may collect and review Customer Marketing Content to improve and enhance the Services and for other development, diagnostic and corrective purposes.

6. FEES AND EXPENSES; PAYMENTS

　6.1. Fees Generally. In consideration for the Services, Customer will pay to Klaviyo the then-current fees set forth in the “Account” section of Customer’s account in the Services unless otherwise set forth in an applicable Service Order (including applicable overages, “Fees”). For the avoidance of doubt, self-service Customers may opt-in to automatic upgrade billing within the Customer’s account, and renewals pursuant to Section 12.1 will renew at the upgraded subscription fee amount.  Klaviyo shall be entitled to withhold performance and suspend or discontinue the Services until all amounts due are paid in full. In the event of a temporary suspension of Customer’s access to the Services, applicable Fees will continue to accrue.

　6.2. Fee Increases. Klaviyo will provide Customer fourteen (14) days advance notice for any increase in fees. Any increases to the Fees shall apply at the beginning of the Customer’s following Term. Customer’s continued use of the Services after a Fee increase will constitute Customer’s agreement to the increase in Fees.

　6.3. Billing, Invoicing, and Payment Terms. Klaviyo will charge Customer the Fees for the Services in advance for each billing period on or after the first day of such billing period. All Fees for Services are due and payable in US Dollars and are non-refundable. If Customer is paying by credit card or eCheck, (a) Customer hereby irrevocably authorizes Klaviyo to charge the credit card or other payment method provided for any such amounts when due, (b) amounts due will be automatically charged, (c) if Customer’s credit card is declined, Klaviyo will attempt to reach out to Customer for a new payment method, and (d) if Customer’s credit card expires, Customer hereby gives Klaviyo permission to submit the credit card charge with a later expiration date. If Klaviyo fails to resolve an issue with Customer resulting from a credit card decline or expiration, Klaviyo may terminate the account due to non-payment. Customer agrees to notify Klaviyo of all billing disputes within fourteen (14) days of delivery of the billing statement or invoice, and disputes not made within that time are waived. Late payments, including those resulting from credit card declines, will accrue interest at a rate of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month, or the highest rate allowed by applicable law, whichever is lower. If Klaviyo must initiate a collections process to recover Fees due and payable hereunder, then Klaviyo shall be entitled to recover from Customer all costs associated with such collections efforts, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees. In the event Klaviyo delivers to Customer an invoice for any Fees or interest payments owed hereunder, such invoiced amounts shall be due upon receipt, unless otherwise set forth in the Service Order.

　6.4. Taxes. The Fees are exclusive of all applicable sales, use, value-added and other taxes, and all applicable duties, tariffs, assessments, export and import fees, or other similar charges, and Customer will be responsible for payment of all such taxes (other than taxes based on Klaviyo’s income), fees, duties, and charges and any related penalties and interest, arising from the payment of the Fees and the delivery of the Services. To the extent that Klaviyo charges any of the aforementioned taxes, they are calculated using the tax rates that apply based on the billing address provided by Customer. Such amounts are in addition to the Fees and will be billed to Customer’s authorized payment method. If Customer is exempt from payment of any such taxes, Customer must provide Klaviyo with evidence of exemption. If Customer is not charged any of the aforementioned taxes by Klaviyo, Customer is responsible for determining if taxes are payable, and if so, self-remitting such taxes to the appropriate tax authorities in Customer’s jurisdiction. Customer will make all payments of Fees to Klaviyo free and clear of, and without reduction for, any withholding taxes. Any such taxes imposed on payments of Fees to Klaviyo will be Customer’s sole responsibility, and Customer will provide Klaviyo with official receipts issued by the appropriate taxing authority, or such other evidence as Klaviyo may reasonably request, to establish that such taxes have been paid. Customer shall indemnify, defend, and hold Klaviyo harmless in connection with any proceedings brought by any taxing authorities in connection with this Agreement.

　6.5. Expenses. If pre-approved by Customer in a Service Order, Customer shall reimburse Klaviyo for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including travel and living) incurred in performing its obligations for specific Services under such Service Order. All costs and expenses incurred by Customer in connection with this Agreement are the sole responsibility of Customer.

　8.4. Disclaimer. THE LIMITED WARRANTY SET FORTH IN SECTION 8.3 IS MADE FOR THE BENEFIT OF CUSTOMER ONLY. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN SECTION 8.3 AND TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICES (INCLUDING THE DOCUMENTATION) ARE PROVIDED “AS IS,” AND KLAVIYO MAKES NO (AND HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL) OTHER WARRANTIES, REPRESENTATIONS, OR CONDITIONS, WHETHER WRITTEN, ORAL, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF SATISFACTORY QUALITY, COURSE OF DEALING, TRADE USAGE OR PRACTICE, MERCHANTABILITY, TITLE, NONINFRINGEMENT, OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, WITH RESPECT TO THE USE, MISUSE, OR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE, DOCUMENTATION, OR SERVICES (IN WHOLE OR IN PART) OR ANY OTHER PRODUCTS OR SERVICES PROVIDED TO CUSTOMER BY KLAVIYO, AND ANY OFFERS. WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, KLAVIYO DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL MEET CUSTOMER’S REQUIREMENTS OR OPERATE WITHOUT INTERRUPTION OR DOWNTIME OR BE ERROR FREE. SOME STATES AND JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OR LIMITATIONS ON HOW LONG AN IMPLIED WARRANTY LASTS, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO CUSTOMER.

9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

　9.1. Limitation of Liability. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL KLAVIYO, NOR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES, SUBCONTRACTORS, LICENSORS, VENDORS OR SUPPLIERS, NOR ANY OF ITS THIRD PARTY PARTNERS, BE LIABLE TO CUSTOMER OR ANY OTHER THIRD PARTY FOR LOST REVENUES, LOST PROFITS OR OTHER SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, CONSEQUENTIAL, RELIANCE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES ARISING FROM CUSTOMER’S OR ANY OTHER THIRD PARTY’S USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOSS OF TECHNOLOGY, LOSS OF DATA OR INTERRUPTION OR LOSS OF USE DAMAGES WHETHER OR NOT KLAVIYO HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE OR LOSS. THE MAXIMUM AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF KLAVIYO, ITS LICENSORS AND VENDORS ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE), SHALL NOT EXCEED THE ACTUAL FEES PAID BY CUSTOMER FOR THE SERVICE FOR THE SIX (6) MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE INITIAL EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY HEREUNDER, LESS ANY DAMAGES PREVIOUSLY PAID BY KLAVIYO TO CUSTOMER IN THAT SIX (6) MONTH PERIOD.

　9.2. Basis of the Bargain. The parties agree that the limitations of liability set forth in this Section 9 shall survive and continue in full force and effect despite any failure of consideration or of an exclusive remedy. The parties acknowledge that the Fees have been set and the Agreement entered into in reliance upon these limitations of liability and that all such limitations form an essential basis of the bargain between the parties.

10. CONFIDENTIALITY

　10.1. Confidential Information. During the term of this Agreement, each party (the “Disclosing Party”) may provide the other party (the “Receiving Party”) with certain information regarding the Disclosing Party’s business, technology, products, or services, or other confidential or proprietary information (collectively, “Confidential Information”) in whatever form (written, oral or visual) that is furnished or made available to the Receiving Party by or on behalf of the Disclosing Party that (a) if in tangible form, the Disclosing Party has labeled in writing as proprietary or confidential, (b) if in oral or visual form, the Disclosing Party has identified as proprietary or confidential at the time of disclosure, or (c) is of a character that is commonly and reasonably regarded as confidential and/or proprietary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Services, Documentation, and all enhancements and improvements thereto, will be considered Confidential Information of Klaviyo.

　10.2. Protection of Confidential Information. The Receiving Party agrees that it will not use or disclose to any third party any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, except for exercising its rights and performing its obligations under this Agreement. The Receiving Party will limit access to the Confidential Information to its employees and contractors who have a need to know, who are subject to confidentiality obligations no less restrictive than those set forth herein and who have been informed of the confidential nature of such information. In addition, the Receiving Party will protect the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information from unauthorized use, access, or disclosure in the same manner that it protects its own proprietary information of a similar nature, but in no event with less than reasonable care. At the Disclosing Party’s request or upon termination of this Agreement, the Receiving Party will return to the Disclosing Party or destroy (or permanently erase in the case of electronic files) all copies of the Confidential Information that the Receiving Party does not have a continuing right to use under this Agreement, and, upon request, the Receiving Party shall provide to the Disclosing Party written notice certifying compliance with this sentence, unless prohibited by applicable law.

　10.3. Exceptions. The confidentiality obligations set forth in this section will not apply to any information that: (a) is or becomes generally available to the public through no fault of the Receiving Party; (b) is lawfully provided to the Receiving Party by a third party free of any confidentiality duties or obligations; (c) the Receiving Party can prove, by clear and convincing evidence, was already known to the Receiving Party without restriction at the time of disclosure; or (d) the Receiving Party can prove, by clear and convincing evidence, was independently developed by employees and contractors of the Receiving Party who had no access to the Confidential Information. In addition, the Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information to the extent that such disclosure is necessary for the Receiving Party to enforce its rights under this Agreement or is required by law or by the order of a court or similar judicial or administrative body, provided that the Receiving Party promptly (to the extent legally permitted) notifies the Disclosing Party in writing of such required disclosure and reasonably cooperates with the Disclosing Party if the Disclosing Party seeks an appropriate protective order.

　10.4. Remedies. Any breach or threatened or attempted breach of this Section 10 may result in immediate, irreparable harm for which monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds that the Receiving Party has breached (or attempted or threatened to breach) any of the obligations set forth in this Section 10, the Receiving Party agrees that, without any additional findings of irreparable injury or other conditions to injunctive relief, it will not oppose the entry of an appropriate order compelling its performance and restraining it from any further breaches (or attempted or threatened breaches).

11. INDEMNIFICATION

　11.1. By Klaviyo. Klaviyo will defend at its expense any suit brought against Customer, and will pay any settlement Klaviyo makes or approves, or any damages finally awarded in such suit, insofar as such suit is based on a claim by any third party alleging that the Services infringe or misappropriate any Intellectual Property Rights in the U.S., Canada, European Union member countries, the United Kingdom, Australia, or New Zealand. If any portion of the Services becomes, or in Klaviyo’s opinion is likely to become, the subject of a claim of infringement, Klaviyo may, at Klaviyo’s option: (a) procure for Customer the right to continue using the Service; (b) replace or modify the Services to be non-infringing without materially impairing the functionality of the Services; or (c) terminate this Agreement and refund to Customer the pro-rated portion of any prepaid fees attributable to any unused Services, and upon such termination, Customer will immediately cease all use of the Services. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Klaviyo shall have no obligation under this Section or otherwise with respect to any infringement claim based upon (v) the Customer Data (w) any use of the Services not in accordance with this Agreement or as specified in the Documentation; (x) any use of the Services in combination with other products, equipment, software or data not supplied by Klaviyo; (y) any modification of the Services by any person other than Klaviyo; (z) modification of the Services based upon specifications furnished by Customer (any of the foregoing circumstances under clauses (v) through (z) will be collectively referred to as a “Customer Indemnity Responsibility”). This Section 11.1 states the sole and exclusive remedy of Customer and the entire liability of Klaviyo, or any of the officers, directors, employees, shareholders, contractors or representatives of the foregoing, for third party claims and actions described in this Section 11.1.

　11.2. By Customer. Customer will indemnify, defend and hold Klaviyo, its officers, directors, affiliates, subsidiaries, licensors, agents and employees (each a “Klaviyo Party”) harmless from and against any and all losses, damages, liability, costs and expenses awarded by a court or agreed upon in settlement, as well as all reasonable and related attorneys’ fees and court costs arising out of or relating to: (a) a Customer Indemnity Responsibility; (b) Customer’s breach or alleged breach of any representation, warranty or obligation under the Agreement, or any violation of law; or (c) the use, transmission, access, disclosure, or other processing of Customer Data.

　11.3. Procedure. The indemnifying party’s obligations as set forth above are expressly conditioned upon each of the foregoing: (a) the indemnified party shall promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of any threatened or actual claim or suit; (b) the indemnifying party shall have sole control of the defense or settlement of any claim or suit; and (c) the indemnified party shall cooperate with the indemnifying party to facilitate the settlement or defense of any claim or suit.

12. TERM AND TERMINATION

　12.1. Term. These Terms of Service commence on Customer’s registration of an account, and continue until all Services subscriptions in all Service Orders have expired or have been terminated, and Customer’s account has been closed. Unless otherwise specified on an applicable Service Order, Customer’s subscription to the Services commences on Customer’s registration for an account, and shall continue in effect for the selected subscription term length (the “Initial Term”). Thereafter, and unless otherwise specified in a Service Order, each applicable Service Order shall automatically renew for successive subscription terms of the same length(each a “Renewal Term”), unless either party provides notice to the other party of its intention not to renew prior to expiration of the Initial Term or the then-current Renewal Term. A party must provide at least (i) five (5) days prior notice if on a monthly billing cycle, or (ii) thirty (30) days prior notice if on any other billing cycle. Notification of such non-renewal from Customer to Klaviyo must be provided as detailed in the Cancellation page on the Klaviyo website, which must be confirmed by Klaviyo. The Initial Term and all Renewal Terms will collectively be referred to as the “Term”.

　12.2. Termination. Either party may terminate the Agreement immediately upon notice to the other party if the other party materially breaches this Agreement, and such breach remains uncured more than thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice of such breach.
