If Customer fails to comply with our request to Suspend a User’s use of the Services, then MAZZZING may Suspend that User’s use of the Services. The duration of any Suspension by MAZZZING will be until the applicable User has cured the breach that caused the Suspension. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if there is a Disruption Event, then MAZZZING may automatically Suspend the offending use. The Suspension will be to the minimum extent and of the minimum duration required to prevent or terminate the Disruption Event. If MAZZZING Suspends a User’s use of the Services for any reason without prior notice to Customer, then at your request, MAZZZING will provide Customer with the reason for the Suspension as soon as is reasonably possible.

4.7.1. Acquisition and Use of Non-MAZZZING Applications. MAZZZING or third parties may make available third-party products or services, including, for example, Non-MAZZZING Applications and implementation and other consulting services. If Customer elects to acquire or use such Non-MAZZZING Applications, any exchange of data between Customer and any non-MAZZZING provider is solely between Customer and the applicable non-MAZZZING provider. MAZZZING DOES NOT WARRANT OR SUPPORT NON-MAZZZING APPLICATIONS OR OTHER NON-MAZZZING PRODUCTS OR SERVICES, WHETHER OR NOT THEY ARE DESIGNATED BY MAZZZING. SUCH NON-MAZZZING APPLICATIONS ARE NOT UNDER THE CONTROL OF MAZZZING AND MAZZZING IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PRODUCT, SERVICES, WEBSITE, OR CONTENT OF ANY THIRD-PARTY PROVIDER. Non-MAZZZING Applications may be subject to additional terms and conditions between the provider of such Non-MAZZZING Application and Customer, including terms related to the collection, use and processing of Personal Information. If Customer elects to acquire or use a Non-MAZZZING Application, it is Customer’s responsibility to review and understand these additional terms.
4.7.2. Non-MAZZZING Applications and Your Customer Services Data. If Customer installs or enables a Non-MAZZZING Application for use with a Service, Customer grants MAZZZING permission to allow the provider of that Non-MAZZZING Application to access Customer Services Data as required for the interoperation of that Non-MAZZZING Application with the Service. MAZZZING is not responsible or liable for any disclosure, modification or deletion of Customer Services Data resulting from access by a Non-MAZZZING Application.

4.7.3. Integration with Non-MAZZZING Applications. The Services may contain features designed to interoperate with Non-MAZZZING Applications.

5. FEES AND PAYMENT FOR PURCHASED SERVICES
5.1. Reseller Purchases. If Customer purchases the Services through a Reseller, all payment-related terms (including, but not limited to, pricing, invoicing, billing, payment methods, and late payment charges) will be set forth in Customer’s agreement directly with such Reseller and such payment-related terms will supersede any conflicting terms set forth in this Section 5. MAZZZING may suspend or terminate your access to the Services in the event of non-payment of the applicable fees to MAZZZING by the Reseller due to your non-payment, or Customer’s uncured breach of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the agreement between Customer and a Reseller: (i) shall not modify any of the terms set forth herein other than Sections those portions of Section 5 related to billing and payments, and (ii) is not binding on MAZZZING.
5.2. Fees. Customer will pay all fees specified in Order Forms. Except as otherwise specified herein or in an Order Form, (i) fees are based on the Service purchased and not actual usage, (ii) payment obligations are non-cancelable and fees paid are non-refundable except as set forth in Section 11.4 below, and (iii) quantities purchased cannot be decreased during the relevant Subscription Term.
5.3. Invoicing and Payment. Fees shall be invoiced in advance, either monthly or in accordance with any different billing frequency stated in the applicable Order Form. Unless otherwise stated in the Order Form, invoiced charges are due upon receipt of such invoice and payable net thirty (30) from the invoice date. Any payments not made within thirty (30) days of the receipt of such invoice shall accrue interest at the rate of 1.5% of the outstanding balance per month, or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower. Customer is responsible for providing complete and accurate billing and contact information to MAZZZING and notifying MAZZZING of any changes to such information. Customer acknowledges and agrees that MAZZZING may engage third-party payment processors, which includes Stripe and its affiliates, to process online payments made by Customer hereunder, and that such payment processors will be provided your payment information in order to help us process your payment.
5.4. Overdue Charges. If any undisputed invoiced amount is not received by MAZZZING thirty (30) days after the invoice date, then without limiting our rights or remedies (a) MAZZZING may condition future subscription renewals and Order Forms on payment terms shorter than those specified in Section 5.3 (Invoicing and Payment), and/or (b) MAZZZING may require Customer to pay all reasonable collections or legal fees incurred by MAZZZING in order to collect payment of the corresponding undisputed invoiced amount.
5.5. Suspension of Service and Acceleration. If any amount owing by Customer under this or any other agreement for Purchased Services is thirty (30) or more days overdue, MAZZZING may, without limiting other rights and remedies, accelerate Customer’s unpaid fee obligations under such agreements so that all such obligations become immediately due and payable, and suspend Services to Customer until such amounts are paid in full. MAZZZING will give Customer at least 10 days’ prior notice, in accordance with Section 12.1 , before Suspending Services to Customer pursuant to the foregoing.
5.6. Taxes. Our fees do not include any taxes, levies, duties or similar governmental assessments of any nature, including, for example, value-added, sales, use or withholding taxes, assessable by any jurisdiction whatsoever (collectively, “Taxes”). Customer is responsible for paying all Taxes associated with its purchases hereunder. If MAZZZING has the legal obligation to pay or collect Taxes for which Customer is responsible under this Section 5.6, MAZZZING will invoice Customer and Customer will pay that amount unless Customer provides MAZZZING with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority. For clarity, MAZZZING is solely responsible for taxes assessable against MAZZZING based on our income, property, and employees.
5.7. Future Functionality. Customer agrees that its purchases are not contingent on the delivery of any future functionality or features, or dependent on any oral or written public comments made by MAZZZING regarding future functionality or features.

If the Receiving Party is compelled by law to disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information as part of a civil proceeding to which the Disclosing Party is a party, and the Disclosing Party is not contesting the disclosure, the Disclosing Party will reimburse the Receiving Party for its reasonable cost of compiling and providing secure access to that Confidential Information.

13. GENERAL PROVISIONS
13.1. Entire Agreement and Order of Precedence. This Agreement, including any Order Forms, is the entire agreement between Customer and MAZZZING regarding Customer’s use of Services and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, proposals or representations, written or oral, concerning its subject matter (including any non-disclosure agreement between Customer and MAZZZING where the sole purpose was to evaluate the subscription hereunder). No waiver of any provision of this Agreement will be effective unless in writing and signed by the party against whom the waiver is to be asserted. No modification or amendment of any provision of this Agreement, an Order Form or SOW will be effective unless in writing and signed by the party against whom the waiver is to be asserted. The parties agree that any term or condition stated in any Customer purchase order or in any other order documentation (excluding Order Forms) is void. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency among the following documents, the order of precedence shall be: (1) the applicable Order Form or SOW, (2) this Agreement, and (3) the Documentation.
13.2. Assignment. Neither party may assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder, whether by operation of law or otherwise, without the other party’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, either party may assign this Agreement in its entirety (including all Order Forms and SOWs hereunder), without the other party’s consent to its Affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets or equity securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a party is acquired by, sells substantially all of its assets to, or undergoes a change of control in favor of, a direct competitor of the other party, then such other party may terminate this Agreement upon written notice.

13.5. Waiver. No failure or delay by either party in exercising any right under this Agreement will constitute a waiver of that right.

13.7. Headings. Headings are used in this Agreement and all associated agreements are solely for convenience and shall not be deemed to affect in any manner the meaning or intent of the applicable agreement or any provision there/hereof.

Except for payment obligations, neither party will be liable for inadequate performance to the extent caused by a condition (for example, natural disaster, an act of war or terrorism, riot, labor condition, governmental action, pandemic, epidemic, quarantine restriction, and Internet disturbance) that was beyond the party’s reasonable control.
13.10. Jury Trial Waiver. EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF.
