E. WARRANTIES, DISCLAIMERS AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES

TINverify warrants that the Services will perform substantially in all material respects in accordance with the Services policies referenced in the Quote. If the Services provided to You for any given month during the Services term were not performed as warranted, You must provide written notice to TINverify as specified in the Quote no later than five (5) business days after the last day of that particular calendar month or within such other period stated in the Quote. TINverify’s only obligation and Your only remedy for failure of warranty shall be the reperformance of the Services so that they conform to the warranty granted herein. In the event that such reperformance is not practicable within a reasonable period of time, TINverify may, at its option, refund any payments made with respect to the nonconforming Services.

TINVERIFY DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE PERFORMED ERROR-FREE OR UNINTERRUPTED, OR THAT TINVERIFY WILL CORRECT ALL SERVICES ERRORS. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT TINVERIFY DOES NOT CONTROL THE TRANSFER OF DATA OVER COMMUNICATIONS FACILITIES, INCLUDING THE INTERNET, AND THAT THE SERVICE MAY BE SUBJECT TO LIMITATIONS, DELAYS, AND OTHER PROBLEMS INHERENT IN THE USE OF SUCH COMMUNICATIONS FACILITIES. TINVERIFY IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DELAYS, DELIVERY FAILURES, OR OTHER DAMAGE RESULTING FROM SUCH PROBLEMS. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, THESE WARRANTIES ARE EXCLUSIVE AND THERE ARE NO OTHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS INCLUDING FOR HARDWARE, SYSTEMS, NETWORKS OR ENVIRONMENTS OR FOR MERCHANTABILITY, SATISFACTORY QUALITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

F. TRIAL USE OF THE SERVICES

If specified in the Quote, You may order certain Services for trial, nonproduction purposes subject to these Terms. Services acquired for trial purposes are provided “AS IS” and TINverify does not offer any warranties or provide any representations for such Services.

G. INDEMNIFICATION

If a third party makes a claim against either You or TINverify (“RECIPIENT” which may refer to You or TINverify depending upon which party received the Material), that any information, design, specification, instruction, software, service, data, program or material (any of the foregoing, “MATERIAL”) furnished by either You or TINverify (“PROVIDER” which may refer to You or TINverify depending on which party provided the Material), and used by the Recipient directly infringes its intellectual property rights, the Provider, at its sole cost and expense, will defend the Recipient against the claim and indemnify the Recipient from the damages, liabilities, costs and expenses awarded by the court to the third party claiming infringement or the settlement agreed to by the Provider, if the Recipient does the following:

• Notifies the Provider promptly in writing, not later than thirty (30) days after the Recipient receives notice of the claim (or sooner if required by applicable law);
• Gives the Provider sole control of the defence and any settlement negotiations; and
• Gives the Provider the information, authority, and assistance the Provider needs to defend against or settle the claim.

If the Provider believes or it is determined that any of the Material may have violated a third party’s intellectual property rights, the Provider may choose to either modify the Material to be non-infringing (while substantially preserving its utility or functionality) or obtain a license to allow for continued use, or if these alternatives are not commercially reasonable, the Provider may end the license for, and require the return of, the applicable Material and refund any unused, prepaid fees the Recipient may have paid to the other party for such Material. If such return materially affects TINverify’s ability to meet its obligations under the relevant order, then TINverify may, at its option and upon thirty (30) days prior written notice, terminate the order. The Provider will not indemnify the Recipient (i) if the Recipient alters the Material or uses it outside the scope of use identified in the Provider’s user documentation or Services policies or if the Recipient uses a version of the Materials which has been superseded if the infringement claim could have been avoided by using an unaltered current version of the Material which was provided to the Recipient; or (ii)to the extent that an infringement claim is based upon (a) any information, design, specification, instruction, software, data, or material not furnished by the Provider, or (b) any Material from a third party portal or other external sources that is accessible to You within or from the service (e.g., a third party Web page accessed via a hyperlink). TINverify will not indemnify You (i) to the extent that an infringement claim is based upon the combination of any Material with any products or Services not provided by TINverify; (ii) for infringement caused by Your actions against any third party if the Services as delivered to You and used in accordance with these Terms would not otherwise infringe any third party intellectual property rights; or (iii) for any infringement claim that is based on: (1) a patent that You were made aware of prior to the date of the Quote (pursuant to a claim, demand, or notice); or (2) Your actions prior to the effective date of the Quote. This section provides the parties’ exclusive remedy for any infringement claims or damages.

H. SUPPORT SERVICES

Support Services are provided as referenced in the Quote.

I. TERMINATION

Services shall be provided for the period defined in the Quote unless earlier terminated in accordance with these Terms. The term of the Services and any renewal years are collectively defined as the “Services term.” At the end of the Services term, all rights to access or use the Services, including the TINverify programs listed in the Quote, shall end, automatically and without any act or deed.

If either of us breaches a material term of these Terms and fails to correct the breach within thirty (30) days of written specification of the breach, then the breaching party is in default and the non-breaching party may terminate the applicable Quote under which the breach occurred. If TINverify ends the Quote as specified in the preceding sentence, You must pay within thirty (30) days thereafter all amounts which have accrued prior to the termination, as well as all sums remaining unpaid for the Services ordered plus related taxes and expenses. If TINverify ends the Services under the Indemnification section, You must pay within thirty (30) days all amounts remaining unpaid for Services plus related taxes and expenses. The non-breaching party may agree in its sole discretion to extend the thirty (30) day period for so long as the breaching party continues reasonable efforts to cure the breach.

YOU AGREE THAT IF YOU ARE IN DEFAULT UNDER THESE TERMS, YOU MAY NOT USE THE SERVICES ORDERED AND SHALL SPECIFICALLY HAVE NO RIGHTS APPLICABLE THERETO. IN ADDITION, TINVERIFY MAY IMMEDIATELY SUSPEND YOUR PASSWORD, ACCOUNT, AND ALL ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE SERVICES IF YOU FAIL TO PAY TINVERIFY ANY AMOUNT AS REQUIRED UNDER THE QUOTE AND THESE TERMS AND DO NOT CURE WITHIN THE FIRST FIVE (5) DAYS OF THE 30 DAY CURE PERIOD, OR (II) IF YOU VIOLATE ANY PROVISION WITHIN SECTIONS C, D, N OR R OF THESE TERMS. TINVERIFY MAY TERMINATE THE SERVICES HEREUNDER IF ANY OF THE FOREGOING IS NOT CURED WITHIN 30 DAYS AFTER TINVERIFY’S INITIAL NOTICE TO YOU THEREOF. ANY SUSPENSION BY TINVERIFY OF THE SERVICES UNDER THIS SECTION I SHALL, IN NO EVENT, EXCUSE YOU FROM YOUR OBLIGATION TO MAKE PAYMENT(S) TO TINVERIFY.

AT YOUR REQUEST, AND FOR A PERIOD OF UP TO SIXTY (60) DAYS AFTER THE TERMINATION OR EXPIRATION OF THE APPLICABLE QUOTE, TINVERIFY MAY PERMIT YOU TO ACCESS THE SERVICES SOLELY AND ABSOLUTELY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY FOR YOU TO RETRIEVE A FILE OF YOUR RAW DATA THEN IN THE SERVICES ENVIRONMENT, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT THE FORM OF THE FILE OBTAINABLE BY YOU MAY BE A SCREEN SHOT, .PDF OR OTHER NON-ELECTRONIC OR NON-ELECTRONICALLY MANIPULATIVE FORM IN THE EVENT THAT YOU ARE IN BREACH OF THESE TERMS OR OTHERWISE HAVE ANY AMOUNTS DUE AND OWING TO TINVERIFY.

You agree and acknowledge that TINverify has no obligation to retain Your data and that Your data may be irretrievably deleted after sixty (60) days following the termination of the Quote.

Provisions that survive termination or expiration of the Quote or these Terms are those relating to limitation of liability, indemnity, confidentiality, data retention and privacy, payment, and others which by their nature are intended to survive.

J. FEES AND TAXES

You agree to pay for all Services ordered as set forth in the applicable Quote. Unless expressly stated otherwise in an applicable Quote, any rates or fees identified in a Quote may be adjusted no more than once every twelve (12) months upon thirty day’s written notice to You, including by email or by notice on TINverify’s website. In addition, rates or fees may be adjusted at any time and from time to time to reflect increases in the Consumer Price Index or other direct costs, upon written notice to You, including by email or by notice on TINverify’s website. Discounts (if any) are based on the filing by You of the quantity of forms identified in the Quote, within the Term of the Quote. If You do not prepay and files fewer forms during such year than identified in the Quote, TINverify shall invoice and You shall pay the difference between the fees paid at the performance rate identified in the Quote, and the fees payable at TINverify’s then-current rates for the number of forms actually filed.

Forms in excess of the quantity purchased through any prepayment will be charged at TINverify’s then-current performance rate reflecting Your annual purchases to date.

If Customer prepays fees for forms, rights to file such forms shall expire pro rata on each anniversary of the date of such prepayment. For purposes of illustration, if the Customer prepays for 30,000 forms over a period of 3 years, the difference between 10,000 forms and forms actually filed shall expire at the end of each year. No credit or refund shall be made in respect of such expired rights to file forms. TINverify may, at its discretion, roll over expired rights to the next annual period.

No refunds of payments shall be made by TINverify to the Customer. In the event that any refund would otherwise be due for any reason, TINverify shall provide credit to the Customer’s account.

Payment can be completed via ACH check, a prepaid amount on Your account, payment upon each transaction, or an invoice sent upon request. Forms filed and mailed after the recipient deadline where no credit remains will be invoiced each month with payment due net 30 days. If the Customer purchases a USPS mailing, the Customer will prepay 75% of the postage amount. All fees due under the Quote are non-cancelable and the sums paid are nonrefundable, except as otherwise specifically stated in the Quote.

You agree to pay any sales, value-added or other similar taxes imposed by applicable law that TINverify must pay based on the Services You ordered, except for taxes based on TINverify’s income. You will reimburse TINverify for reasonable expenses related to providing any on-site portion of the Services. Fees for Services listed in a Quote are exclusive of taxes and expenses. All amounts hereunder are due before or at the time of service unless otherwise set forth in the Quote. Any undisputed overdue amounts owed by You will accrue interest at the lesser of one and on-half percent (1.5%) per month or the highest rate permitted by applicable laws.

You agree that You have not relied on the future availability of any Services, programs or updates in entering into the payment obligations in the Quote; however, the preceding does not relieve TINverify of its obligation to deliver Services that You have ordered pursuant to the terms of the Quote.

K. NON-DISCLOSURE

By virtue of the Quote and these Terms, the parties may have access to information that is confidential to one another (“CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION”). We each agree to disclose only information that is required for the performance of obligations under the Quote and these Terms. Confidential Information shall be limited to the terms and pricing under the Quote, Your data residing in the Services environment, and all information clearly identified as confidential at the time of disclosure. TINverify’s Confidential Information shall specifically include (without limitation) all intellectual property rights, claims, causes of action and interests in and to TINverify’s trademarks and websites, its software, algorithms, methods, processes and all intellectual property and components thereof. A party’s Confidential Information shall not include information that is or becomes a part of the public domain through no act or omission of the other party.

We each agree to hold each other’s Confidential Information in strict confidence for a period of five (5) years from the date of the termination or expiration of the Quote. Also, we each agree to disclose Confidential Information only to those employees or agents who are required to protect it against unauthorized disclosure in a manner no less protective than under these Terms. TINverify will exercise reasonable efforts to protect the confidentiality of Your data residing in the Services environment in accordance with security practices determined in good faith by TINverify. Nothing shall prevent either party from disclosing the terms or pricing under the Quote in any legal proceeding arising from or in connection with the Quote or these Terms or from disclosing the confidential information to a governmental entity as required by law, and then solely to the extent thereof. The confidentiality provisions hereof supersede any existing nondisclosure obligations relating to the Services between You and TINverify.

L. API LICENSE AND DEVELOPMENT:

M. ENTIRE AGREEMENT

You agree that the Quote and these Terms (including the information which is incorporated herein by written reference) is the complete and sole agreement for the Services ordered by You and that the Quote and these Terms supersede all prior or contemporaneous agreements or representations, written or oral, regarding such Services. If any term of the Quote or these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain effective and such term shall be replaced with a term consistent with the purpose and intent of the Quote and these Terms. It is expressly agreed that these Terms, including the Quote, shall supersede the terms in any purchase order or other non-TINverify document and no terms included in any such purchase order or other non-TINverify documents shall apply to the Services ordered. The Quote and these Terms may not be modified and the rights and restrictions may not be altered or waived except in a writing signed (by hand or electronically) by authorized representatives of You and of TINverify. In the event of any conflict between the Terms and the Quote, the Quote shall govern.

N. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF REVENUE OR PROFITS (EXCLUDING FEES), DATA, OR DATA USE. TINVERIFY’S MAXIMUM LIABILITY FOR ANY DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE QUOTE, THESE TERMS OR YOUR ORDER, WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE, SHALL IN NO EVENT EXCEED, IN THE AGGREGATE, THE TOTAL AMOUNTS ACTUALLY PAID TO TINVERIFY FOR THE SERVICES UNDER THE ORDER THAT IS THE SUBJECT OF THE CLAIM IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO SUCH CLAIM. ANY DAMAGE IN YOUR FAVOR AGAINST TINVERIFY SHALL BE REDUCED BY ANY REFUND OR CREDIT RECEIVED BY YOU AND ANY SUCH REFUND AND CREDIT SHALL APPLY TOWARDS THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.

O. EXPORT

Export laws and regulations of the United States and any other relevant local export laws and regulations apply to the Services. You agree that such export control laws govern Your use of the Services (including technical data) and any Services deliverables provided to you, and You agree to comply with all such export laws and regulations (including “deemed export” and “deemed re-export” regulations). You agree that no data, information, software programs and/or materials resulting from Services (or direct product thereof) will be exported, directly or indirectly, in violation of these laws, or will be used for any purpose prohibited by these laws including, without limitation, nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons proliferation, or development of missile technology.
