3.2 Payment. Subject to certain credit requirements as determined by Contentful, Contentful may permit Customer pay amounts due under this Agreement in arrears. The foregoing does not apply to Customers purchasing via a service order. Customer shall make all of the payments due hereunder within thirty (30) days of the date of the invoice or, if applicable, as set forth on the service order. If Customer is overdue on any payment and fails to pay within ten (10) business days of a written notice of Customer’s overdue payment, then Contentful may assess, and Customer must pay a late fee of either 1.5% per month, or the maximum amount allowable by law, whichever is less.

3.3 Net of Taxes. All fees are exclusive of any applicable use, sales, value added, excise and other similar taxes and government charges (collectively, “Taxes”). Taxes do not include any taxes on the net income of Contentful or any of its Affiliates. Unless Customer qualifies for a jurisdictional value added/sales/use excise or similar tax exemption and provides Contentful with all necessary documentation Contentful may require (for example a valid certificate of Direct Pay Permit) and provided that Contentful separately states any such taxes on the applicable invoice Customer will not withhold any Taxes from any amounts due to Contentful, except to the extent required under mandatory local law. In the event Customer is obliged to withhold taxes, Customer will inform Contentful accordingly in writing (email sufficient) as soon as the obligation to withhold taxes becomes known and will assist Contentful at no charge in obtaining any mitigations, exemptions and/or refunds as may be available under any applicable law, including any double taxation treaties. In particular, Customer will provide Contentful, at no charge and in a timely manner, with any and all information, document or confirmation required for Contentful to avail itself of any exemptions, mitigations or reductions of any such withholding tax under any applicable law, including any double taxation treaties.

4. Proprietary Rights and Confidentiality

4.1 Contentful’s Ownership Rights. As between the parties, Contentful retains all right, title, and interest in all its trademarks, service marks, logos and domain names (“Contentful Marks”) and patents, copyrights, trade secrets, and other intellectual property rights in and to all Subscription Services, Reports, and any and all related and underlying technology and documentation, and any derivative works, modifications, or improvements of any of the foregoing, including any Feedback (as defined below), (collectively, “Contentful Technology”). Contentful may collect information and metadata relating to the provision, use and performance of the Subscription Services (“Service Data”) and Contentful may use Service Data for its own legitimate purposes such as billing, development, security, product improvement, and troubleshooting, in compliance with all applicable laws. Except for the express limited rights set forth in this Agreement, no right, title or interest in or to any Contentful Technology or Contentful Marks is granted to Customer.

4.2 Feedback. Contentful has full, unencumbered right, title and license, without any obligation to compensate or reimburse Customer, to use, incorporate and otherwise fully exercise and exploit any suggestions or comments Customer provides for enhancements improvements, new features, additional functionality or any other feedback with respect to the Contentful Technology now or in the future (collectively, “Feedback”). Feedback will not include any Customer Confidential Information. Feedback is provided by Customer “as-is” without any warranties.

4.3 Customer’s Ownership Rights. As between the parties, Customer retains all right, title, and interest in all its trademarks, service marks, logos, domain names, Designated Content and Customer Inputs. Except as set forth in a service order, Customer grants to Contentful a revocable, fully-paid, non-exclusive, worldwide license to access, copy, analyze, process, and use Customer Inputs and Designated Content to provide, maintain, secure, support, develop, and improve the Subscription Services and other Contentful products and services. 

4.4 Confidentiality. Each party will use the same degree of care that it uses to protect the confidentiality of its own confidential information of like kind (but not less than reasonable care) to (I) not use Confidential Information of the other party for any purpose outside the scope of this Agreement; (II) only disclose Confidential Information to its Affiliates, employees, officers, directors, attorneys, auditors, financial advisors and other representatives who have a need to know and are legally bound to keep such information confidential by confidentiality obligations at least as stringent as those herein; or as required by law or court of competent jurisdiction. If required by law or a court of competent jurisdiction, the party disclosing the other’s information will (to the extent legally permitted) (a) provide the other with (i) prior written notification thereof and (ii) the opportunity to contest such disclosure; and (b) use reasonable efforts to minimize such disclosure. Each party will promptly notify the other in writing (email sufficient) if it becomes aware of any unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information of the other party. Each party acknowledges that Confidential Information is unique and unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information may cause substantial harm for which damages alone might not be a sufficient remedy, and therefore upon any such disclosure (or threat thereof), the other party will be entitled to seek appropriate equitable relief in addition to whatever other remedies it may have at law. 

5. Warranties and Disclaimers

5.1 Mutual Warranty. Each party warrants that it has the authority to enter into this Agreement.

Contentful warrants that it will, consistent with prevailing industry standards, maintain the Subscription Services in a manner which minimizes errors in the Subscription Services, and that the Subscription Services will substantially conform to the Documentation. The foregoing warranties shall not apply to any errors or defects in the Subscription Services resulting in whole or in part from: (a) Customer’s use of the Subscription Services in a manner not conforming with the terms herein, including but not limited, any use of the Subscription Services in violation of the Acceptable Use Policy; (b) modification of the Subscription Services by or on behalf of Customer without Contentful’s express, prior, written consent; (c) Customer Inputs or Connected Applications; or (d) Customer’s use of any third party applications, portions of applications, products or services.

5.5 Warranty Remedies. Customer will notify Contentful of any non-conformance under Section 5.2 (Contentful Warranty) without undue delay and in no case later than within 30 days of the date on which the condition giving rise to the claim first arose. Provided that Customer notifies Contentful within such time and provides reasonable evidence of the non-conformance, Contentful will correct the non-conformance at no additional charge. If Contentful does not re-perform or correct such non-conformance as warranted within a reasonable time, Customer may terminate the Agreement by written notice and receive a refund of any pre-paid and unused fees from the date of termination. The foregoing remedy is Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy in case of a breach of the limited warranty.

6. Indemnification

6.1 Indemnification by Contentful.

(a) Contentful will indemnify and defend Customer against any claim, demand, suit or proceeding made or brought against Customer by a third party to the extent alleging that the use of the Subscription Services as permitted hereunder infringes or misappropriates a third party’s valid patent, copyright, trademark or trade secret (“Claim”) and will pay all damages and costs finally awarded against Customer or as set forth in any approved settlement as a result of such Claim.

(b) The foregoing obligations of Contentful are subject to (i) Customer providing written notice to Contentful of such Claim within 30 days of becoming aware of such Claim and furnishing Contentful with a copy of each communication, notice or other document relating to such Claim (provided that Customer’s failure to give such notice, or any delay in giving such notice, shall not relieve Contentful of its indemnification obligations under this Agreement except to the extent Contentful is actually prejudiced by any such failure or delay); (ii) Contentful having the sole and exclusive authority to defend and/or settle any such Claim (provided that Contentful may not settle any Claim without Customer’s prior written consent – which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed – unless the settlement unconditionally releases Customer of all related liability and provides for no admission of guilt by Customer); and (iii) Customer reasonably cooperates with Contentful, at Contentful’s cost, in connection therewith.

(c) If the use of the Subscription Services by Customer has become, or in Contentful’s opinion is likely to become, the subject of any Claim, Contentful may at its option and expense (i) procure for Customer the right to continue using and receiving the Subscription Services as set forth hereunder; (ii) replace or modify the Subscription Services to make them non-infringing (with comparable functionality); or (iii) if the options in clauses (i) or (ii) are not reasonably and commercially practicable, terminate this Agreement and provide a pro rata refund of any prepaid unused fees.

9. General

9.1 Compliance with Laws. Each party agrees to comply with all laws, ordinances and regulations (whether international, federal, state, local or provincial) applicable to the respective party in its performance under this Agreement. The Subscription Service is not designed, intended, or marketed for use as, or as part of, any “high-risk AI system” under Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 (the “EU AI Act”), or any other technology subject to substantially similar obligations under applicable laws or regulations governing the development, provision, or use of AI systems (collectively, a “High-Risk AI System”). As of the effective date of this Agreement, the Subscription Service has not been classified as a High-Risk AI System by any competent authority under the EU AI Act or any comparable law. If Contentful determines, or is notified by a competent authority, that the Subscription Service or any material component of it has been classified as a High-Risk AI System, Contentful will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify Customer of that determination, and modify the Subscription Service or provide information designed to support Customer in meeting any resulting compliance obligations. If Customer’s use of the Subscription Services involves Contentful processing personal data on behalf of Customer, the terms of the Palmata Data Processing Addendum available at http://palmata.ai/data-processing-addendum shall apply.

9.2 Export Compliance. Each party will comply with applicable export control and economic sanctions laws and regulations when providing or using the Subscription Services. Without limiting the foregoing, (i) each party warrants that neither it nor any party that wholly or partially owns a party is listed on or acting on behalf of and will not act on behalf of any E.U. or U.S. government list of prohibited or restricted parties or organized, headquartered or located in (or a national of) a country that is subject to an E.U. or U.S. government embargo or that has been designated by the E.U. or the U.S. government as a “terrorist supporting” country (an “Embargoed Jurisdiction” currently Afghanistan, Cuba, Crimea, Iran, North Korea, Syria and Venezuela), (ii) Customer will not (and will not permit any third parties to) access or use the Subscription Services from an Embargoed Jurisdiction or in violation of any E.U. or U.S. export embargo, prohibition or restriction, and (iii) Customer will not submit to Contentful or in the Subscription Services any information that is controlled under the U.S. International Traffic in Arms Regulations.

9.3 Assignment and Delegation. Neither party may assign or otherwise transfer this Agreement, in whole or in part, without the other party’s prior written consent, except that either party may assign this Agreement without consent (i) to a successor to all or substantially all of its assets or business; or (ii) to an Affiliate of such party. In addition, Customer agrees that Contentful may perform its obligations through an Affiliate or a subcontractor, provided that Contentful remains responsible for its obligations hereunder and liable for such Affiliate’s and subcontractor’s performance as if it were Contentful. Any attempted assignment, delegation or transfer by either party in violation hereof will be null and void. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement will be binding on the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

9.4 Amendment and Waiver. Except as expressly stated herein, no amendment or modification to this Agreement, nor any waiver of any rights hereunder, will be effective unless executed in writing by a duly authorized representative of each party. Failure or delay by either party to enforce any provision of this Agreement will not be deemed a waiver of present or future enforcement of that or any other provision.

9.5 Unenforceability. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or otherwise unenforceable, such provision will be enforced as nearly as possible in accordance with the stated intention of the parties, while the remainder of the Agreement will remain in full force and effect and bind the parties according to its terms.

9.6 Governing Law and Jurisdiction. If this Agreement is with Contentful Inc., this Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, USA, exclusive of its rules governing choice of law and conflict of laws and all disputes arising out of this Agreement will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts of the State of Delaware and the parties hereby consent to the personal jurisdiction of these courts. If this Agreement is with Contentful GmbH, this Agreement will be governed by the laws of England and Wales and all disputes arising out of this Agreement will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts of England and Wales and the parties hereby consent to the personal jurisdiction of these courts. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods will not apply. In the event of actual or threatened breach of confidentiality obligations or the Contentful Acceptable Use Policy, the non-breaching party may seek specific performance, immediate injunctive and other equitable relief in any competent court without prejudice to any other rights or remedies.

9.7 Notices. Contentful may give notices to Customer via the Subscription Services web portal/website or email to the email registered in Customer’s account. Notices given in writing must be by personal delivery, certified mail, return receipt requested, or by overnight delivery. Notices to Contentful must be in writing sent to the following address, as applicable: Attn: Legal with a copy, which shall not constitute a legal notice, to legal@contentful.com and (i) Contentful GmbH, Max-Urich-Straße 4, 13355 Berlin, Germany or (ii) Contentful Inc., 1801 California Street, Suite 4600, Denver, CO 80202.

9.8 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including linked terms incorporated by reference, comprises the entire agreement between the parties with respect to its subject matter and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous proposals, statements, sales materials or presentations and agreements (oral and written). No oral or written information or advice given by Contentful, its agents or employees will create a representation, warranty or guarantee or in any way increase the scope of the warranties in this Agreement. No terms or conditions stated in a Customer purchase order, vendor or partner onboarding process or web portal, or any other Customer order documentation will be incorporated into or form any part of this Agreement, and all such terms or conditions will be null and void, notwithstanding any language to the contrary therein. If Customer and Contentful execute a Contentful service order referencing this Agreement, such service order will control in the event of any conflict or inconsistency with the terms of this Agreement.

9.9 Force Majeure. Neither party will be deemed in breach hereunder for any cessation, interruption or delay in the performance of its obligations due to causes beyond its reasonable control (“Force Majeure Event”), including but not limited to earthquake, flood, or other natural disaster, “acts of God”, pandemic or similar outbreak, labor controversy, civil disturbance, terrorism, war (whether or not officially declared), cyber-attacks (e.g., denial of service attacks), or the inability to obtain sufficient supplies, transportation or other essential commodity or service required in the conduct of its business, or any change in or the adoption of any law, regulation, judgment or decree.

9.10 Government Terms. Contentful provides the Subscription Services, including related software and technology, for ultimate federal government end use solely in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If Customer (or any of its customers) is an agency, department, or other entity of any government, the use, duplication, reproduction, release, modification, disclosure or transfer of the Subscription Services or any related software technology or Documentation of any kind, including technical data and manuals, is restricted by the terms of this Agreement. All other use is prohibited and no rights other than those provided in this Agreement are conferred. The Subscription Services were developed fully at private expense.

9.11 Independent Parties. Nothing in this Agreement creates a partnership, joint venture, personnel leasing or agency relationship between the parties.

9.12 Third-Party Beneficiaries. There are no third-party beneficiaries under this Agreement.
