WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICES OR ANY GOODS, SERVICES OR OTHER MATERIALS DELIVERED BY PHIRED UP, PHIRED UP DOES NOT GUARANTEE IN ANY WAY THAT THE RESULTS OF ANY ANALYSIS AND REPORTS IT PRODUCES ARE ACCURATE.

NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING IN THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS TO THE CONTRARY, THE ENTIRE LIABILITY OF EITHER PARTY TO THE OTHER ARISING OUT OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR THE SERVICES PERFORMED HEREUNDER SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT ACTUALLY PAID BY CUSTOMER TO PHIRED UP UNDER THE APPLICABLE SERVICES AGREEMENT. IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFITS OR DATA) WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY WAS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES IN ADVANCE. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE LIMITATIONS SPECIFIED IN THIS SECTION 8 WILL SURVIVE AND APPLY EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY SPECIFIED IN THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. Phired Up is willing to enter into these Terms and Conditions and the Services Agreement and perform Services for Customer only in consideration of and in reliance upon the provisions of these Terms and Conditions limiting Phired Up’s exposure to liability, including but not limited to the provisions contained above. Such provisions constitute an essential part of the bargain underlying these Terms and Conditions and the Services Agreement and have been reflected in the consideration specified therein.

Section 9: Customer Data
“Customer Data” means information, data, and other content, in any form or medium, that is collected, downloaded, or otherwise received, directly or indirectly, from Customer by or through the Services. For the avoidance of doubt, Customer Data does not include data and information related to Customer's use of the Services that is used by Phired Up in an aggregate and anonymized manner, including to compile statistical and performance information related to the provision and operation of the Services or any other information reflecting the access or use of the Services by or on behalf of Customer. The Services do not replace the need for Customer to maintain regular data backups or redundant data archives. PHIRED UP HAS NO OBLIGATION OR LIABILITY FOR ANY LOSS, ALTERATION, DESTRUCTION, DAMAGE, CORRUPTION, OR RECOVERY OF CUSTOMER DATA. Customer has and will retain sole responsibility for all Customer Data, including its content and use. Customer hereby irrevocably grants all such rights and permissions in or relating to Customer Data as are necessary or useful to Phired Up to provide the Services and to enforce these Terms and Conditions and exercise Phired Up's rights and perform Phired Up's obligations hereunder. Client agrees and acknowledges that Phired Up has the right to retain and to use Customer Data, but has no obligation to retain Customer Data and that Customer Data may be irretrievably deleted after ninety (90) days following the termination of the service Agreement.

Section 10: Customer Indemnification
Customer agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Phired Up and its officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, successors, and assigns from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, claims, actions, judgments, settlements, interest, awards, penalties, fines, costs, or expenses of whatever kind, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising from or relating to: (a) Customer’s use or misuse of the Services or Customer’s breach of these Terms and Conditions; or (b) gross negligence or more culpable act or omission (including recklessness or willful misconduct) by Customer or any third party on behalf of Customer, in connection with these Terms and Conditions.  

Section 11: Confidentiality
Each party may have access to information that is confidential and proprietary to the other party (“Confidential Information”). “Confidential Information” shall include any and all technical and non-technical information of each party, including but not limited to (a) patent and patent applications, (b) trade secrets, and (c) proprietary information–mask works, ideas, samples, media, techniques, sketches, drawings, works of authorship, models, inventions, know-how, processes, apparatuses, equipment, algorithms, software programs, software source documents, and formulae related to the current, future, and proposed products and services of each of the parties, and including, without limitation, their respective information concerning research, experimental work, development, design details and specifications, engineering, financial information, procurement requirements, purchasing, manufacturing, customer lists, investors, employees, business and contractual relationships, business forecasts, sales and merchandising, marketing plans and any other information of a similar nature. Each party agrees not to make Confidential Information available in any form to any third party except to such party’s employees, contractors, agents or service providers who are required to know to allow such party to exercise its rights or perform obligations under these Terms and Conditions or to use the Confidential Information for any purpose other than in the performance of these Terms and Conditions. Each party agrees to take all reasonable steps to ensure that Confidential Information is secure and not disclosed or distributed by such party’s employees or agents in breach of this Section 11. Upon request of the disclosing party, the receiving party will destroy the disclosing party’s Confidential Information, other than archival back-up copy. The obligations of this provision shall not apply to any such Confidential Information which, after the date hereof, becomes publicly available without a breach of these Terms and Conditions, or is disclosed to a third party without similar restriction on the third party’s rights, or is already known in the relevant industry. This Section 11 will survive termination of these Terms and Conditions and the applicable Services Agreement.

Section 12: Assignment
Neither party may assign or delegate its rights and obligations under these Terms and Conditions and the Services Agreement to any third party without the prior consent of the other party to these Terms and Conditions (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, that a “change of control” transaction shall not be deemed assignment or delegation under these Terms and Conditions.

Section 13: Force Majeure
Neither party shall be deemed in default or otherwise liable under these Terms and Conditions and the Services Agreement due to its inability to perform its obligations by reason of any fire, earthquake, flood, snowstorm, epidemic, accident, explosion, casualty, strike, lockout, labor controversy, riot, civil disturbance, act of public enemy, embargo, war, act of God, or any municipal, county, state or national ordinance or law, or any executive, administrative or judicial order (which order is not the result of any act or omission which would constitute a default hereunder), or any failure or delay of any transportation, power, or communications system or any other or similar cause beyond that party’s reasonable control. Should any Services need to be postponed due to a Force Majeure event, the Customer is responsible for rescheduling and a new date for Services must be rescheduled within one (1) year of the original scheduled date. If any on-site or in-person Services are required to be changed to digital delivery due to health and safety concerns or travel restrictions or obstacles, invoicing will be revised to reflect an appropriate reduction in cost in compliance with company policies.

Section 14: Governing Law and Venue
These Terms and Conditions shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Indiana, exclusive of its choice of law rules, as such law applies to agreements between Indiana residents entered into and to be performed within Indiana, except as governed by federal law. Any controversy or claim arising out of or in any way connected with these Terms and Conditions or the Services Agreement, or the alleged breach thereof shall be brought in the state and federal courts located in the State of Indiana. Each party waives any right it may have to assert the doctrine of forum non conveniens or similar doctrine or to object to venue with respect to any proceeding brought in accordance with this paragraph.

Section 15: Entire Agreement
These Terms and Conditions, together with all applicable Services Agreement executed by the parties, constitute the entire agreement between the parties, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, proposals or representations, written or oral, concerning its subject matter. No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of these Terms and Conditions shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the party against whom the modification, amendment or waiver is to be asserted. Notwithstanding any language to the contrary therein, no terms or conditions stated in a Customer purchase order or in any other Customer order documentation shall be incorporated into or form any part of these Terms and Conditions, and all such terms or conditions shall be null and void. If any provision of these Terms and Conditions is held to be unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be reformed to the extent necessary to make it enforceable.
