1. SOFTWARE SERVICE.
This agreement and the applicable order provide Customer access to and usage of an Internet-based software service, including, without limitation, its features, functions, and user interface, and underlying software, as specified on an order (Service).
2. USE OF SERVICE.
a. Customer Owned Data. All data uploaded by Customer to the Service remains the property of Customer, as between OrthoEdge and Customer (Customer Data). Customer represents and warrants to OrthoEdge that Customer has provided all required notices and has obtained all required licenses, permissions, and consents regarding Customer Data for use within the Service under this agreement. During the term of an order, Customer grants OrthoEdge the right to use the Customer Data to provide, maintain and enhance its Service and associated systems.
b. Onboarding. OrthoEdge will help Customer onboard to the Service, and Customer will perform the onboarding tasks at [insert link to R&R chart].

d. OrthoEdge Support. OrthoEdge must provide Customer support for the Service under the terms of OrthoEdge's Customer Support Policy (Support), which is located at info@orthoedge.net and set out in Exhibit A.
e. 30-Day Trial Version. If Customer has registered for a trial use of the Service, Customer may access the Service for a 30-day time period (unless extended by OrthoEdge in writing). The Service is provided 'AS IS', with no warranty during this time period. All Customer Data will be deleted after the trial period, unless Customer converts its account to a paid Service.
f. Third Party Service. The Service interoperates with third party services (Third Party Service), and it depends on continuing availability of and access to Third Party Service, including application programming interfaces, for full functionality of the Service. Customer is responsible for obtaining all rights and the payment of all fees associated with all Third Party Service for purposes of this agreement.
3. SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENT AND WARRANTY.
a. Warranty. OrthoEdge warrants to Customer that: (i) OrthoEdge will not materially decrease the overall security of the Service; (ii) the Service will perform materially in accordance with its technical documentation; and (iii) OrthoEdge will neither materially decrease the overall functionality of the Service nor the scope of Support.

b. DISCLAIMER. ORTHOEDGE DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, TITLE, AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. WHILE ORTHOEDGE TAKES REASONABLE PHYSICAL, TECHNICAL, AND ADMINISTRATIVE MEASURES TO SECURE THE SERVICE, ORTHOEDGE DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT THE SERVICE CANNOT BE COMPROMISED.
4. PAYMENT.
a. Fees and Payment. Customer must pay all fees as specified on the order, but if not specified, then within 30 days of receipt of an invoice. The fees are exclusive of sales, use, withholding, VAT and other similar taxes, and Customer is responsible for payment of such taxes at the rate and in the manner for the time being prescribed by law. If OrthoEdge has the legal obligation to pay or collect taxes for which Customer is responsible under this section, OrthoEdge will invoice Customer and Customer will pay that amount unless Customer provides OrthoEdge with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority. This agreement contemplates one or more orders for the Service, which orders are governed by the terms of this agreement.
b. Nonpayment. Any invoiced amount not received by OrthoEdge by the due date may accrue interest at the lesser rate of 1.5% per month or the maximum rate permitted by law. In addition, if an invoiced amount is 30 days or more past due, OrthoEdge may suspend Service and Support until the amount is paid in full, provided OrthoEdge has given Customer at least 30 days’ prior written notice that its account is past due.
5. MUTUAL CONFIDENTIALITY AND DATA SECURITY.
a. Definition of Confidential Information. Confidential Information means all non-public information disclosed by a party (Discloser) to the other party (Recipient), whether orally, visually, or in writing, that is designated as confidential or that reasonably should be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information and the circumstances of disclosure (Confidential Information). OrthoEdge's Confidential Information includes, without limitation, the Service, and pricing information. Customer's Confidential Information includes, without limitation, the Customer Data.
b. Protection of Confidential Information. Recipient must 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 any Confidential Information of Discloser for any purpose outside the scope of this agreement; and (ii) limit access to Confidential Information of Discloser to those of its and its affiliates’ employees and contractors who need that access for purposes consistent with this agreement and who have signed confidentiality agreements with Recipient containing protections not materially less protective of the Confidential Information than those in this agreement.
c. Exclusions. Confidential Information excludes information that: (i) is or becomes generally known to the public without breach of any obligation owed to Discloser; (ii) was known to the Recipient before its disclosure by the Discloser without breach of any obligation owed to the Discloser; (iii) is received from a third party without breach of any obligation owed to Discloser; or (iv) is independently developed by the Recipient without use of or access to the Confidential Information. The Recipient may disclose Confidential Information to the extent required by law or court order, but will provide Discloser with advance notice to seek a protective order.
d. Data Security Measures.
i. Security Measures. OrthoEdge: (i) implements and maintains reasonable security measures appropriate to the nature of the Customer Data including, without limitation, technical, physical, administrative, and organizational controls, designed to maintain the confidentiality, security, and integrity of the Customer Data; (ii) implements and maintains industry standard systems and procedures for detecting, preventing, and responding to attacks, intrusions, or other systems failures and regularly tests, or otherwise monitors the effectiveness of the safeguards’ key controls, systems, and procedures; (iii) designates an employee or employees to coordinate implementation and maintenance of its Security Measures; and (iv) identifies reasonably foreseeable internal and external risks to the security, confidentiality, and integrity of the Customer Data that could result in the unauthorized disclosure, misuse, alteration, destruction, or other compromise of such information, and assesses the sufficiency of safeguards in place to control these risks (collectively, Security Measures).

If OrthoEdge becomes aware that Customer Data was accessed or disclosed in breach of this agreement, OrthoEdge will so notify Customer without undue delay, immediately act to eliminate the breach and preserve forensic evidence, and provide available information to Customer regarding the nature and scope of the breach.
6. PROPERTY.
a. Reservation of Rights. OrthoEdge and its licensors are the sole owners of the Service, including all associated intellectual property rights, and they remain only with OrthoEdge.

b. Restrictions. Customer may not: (i) sell, resell, rent, or lease the Service or use it in a service-provider capacity; (ii) use the Service to store or transmit unsolicited marketing emails, libelous, or otherwise objectionable, unlawful, or tortious material, or to store or transmit infringing material in violation of third-party rights; (iii) interfere with or disrupt the integrity or performance of the Service; (iv) attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service or its related systems or networks; (v) reverse engineer the Service except as allowed by applicable law despite this limitation; or (vi) access the Service to build a competitive service or product, or copy any feature, function, or graphic for competitive purposes.

c. Statistical Information. OrthoEdge may compile statistical information related to the Service and may make such information publicly available, provided that such information does not identify Customer Data, and there is no means to re-identify Customer Data.
