7. Intellectual Property

8. Confidentiality
Each party agrees to keep confidential all non-public information disclosed by the other party that is designated as confidential or that reasonably should be understood to be confidential (“Confidential Information”). Each party agrees to use the other party’s Confidential Information only for purposes of performing its obligations or exercising its rights under these Terms, and to protect such information using the same degree of care it uses to protect its own confidential information, but no less than reasonable care.
These obligations do not apply to information that: (a) becomes publicly known through no breach of this section; (b) is rightfully received from a third party without restriction; (c) was already known prior to disclosure; or (d) is required to be disclosed by law or legal process, provided the receiving party gives prompt notice where permitted.
9. Disclaimers
Not Legal Advice: ContractsIQ® is a technology tool, not a law firm. The analysis, insights, and outputs generated by the Service are for informational purposes only and do not constitute legal advice. You should not rely on the Service as a substitute for consultation with a qualified attorney. No attorney-client relationship is created through your use of the Service, and you remain solely responsible for your contracts and any decisions you make based on the Service. Always review important contracts with qualified legal counsel.
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, CONTRACTSIQ DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS; THAT ANY DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED; OR THAT THE SERVICE OR THE SERVERS THAT MAKE IT AVAILABLE ARE FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS.
10. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL CONTRACTSIQ, ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
IN NO EVENT WILL CONTRACTSIQ’S TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE EXCEED THE GREATER OF: (A) THE AMOUNTS PAID BY YOU TO CONTRACTSIQ IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE CLAIM; OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100).
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain warranties or liabilities, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you.
11. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Incluud Inc. and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or relating to: (a) your use of the Service; (b) Your Content; (c) your violation of these Terms; or (d) your violation of any rights of a third party.

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service immediately, without prior notice or liability, if: (a) you breach these Terms; (b) we are required to do so by law; (c) we determine that continued access would harm other users, third parties, or our systems; or (d) you fail to pay applicable fees.
Effect of Termination
Upon termination, all licenses granted to you under these Terms will immediately cease.

Following termination, you will have 30 days to export Your Content. After this period, we may delete Your Content in accordance with our data retention policy.
13. Governing Law
These Terms and any disputes arising under or related to them shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to these Terms.
14. Dispute Resolution
Informal Resolution
Before filing a formal claim, you agree to contact us at [email protected] and attempt to resolve the dispute informally. We will attempt to resolve the dispute informally within 30 days of receiving notice.
Binding Arbitration
If informal resolution is unsuccessful, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall be settled by binding arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), rather than in court. The arbitration shall be conducted in English and shall take place in the State of Delaware. The arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding on all parties.
Class Action Waiver
YOU AND CONTRACTSIQ AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING.
Exceptions
Notwithstanding the above, either party may seek emergency injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of intellectual property rights or confidential information.
15. General Provisions
Entire Agreement
These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any order forms or statements of work, constitute the entire agreement between you and ContractsIQ® with respect to the Service and supersede all prior or contemporaneous understandings.
Waiver and Severability
Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of those rights. If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable by a court, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.
Assignment
You may not assign or transfer these Terms or any rights hereunder without our prior written consent. We may freely assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. These Terms bind and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns.
Notices
We may provide notices to you via the email address associated with your account or by posting a notice on the Service. You may provide notices to us at [email protected].
