These Terms of Subscription Service (“Agreement”) are entered into by and between you, the entity or person placing an order or accessing the Solutions (as defined below) (“Client”) and PXP on the Quote or other order form.
The “Effective Date” of this Agreement is the date that is the earlier of (a) the effective date of the first Quote referencing this Agreement and (b) Client’s initial access to the Solutions through any PXP online registration, provisioning, or order process.
If you are entering into this Agreement on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind such entity to this Agreement in which case the term “Client” shall refer to such entity. If you do not have such authority, or if you do not agree to the terms of this Agreement, do not accept this Agreement or use the Solutions. If you receive free access or a trial or evaluation subscription to the Solutions, you are deemed a “Client” under this Agreement and are subject to its terms. You may not use or access the Solutions if you are a direct competitor of PXP or if you are accessing or using the Solutions for the benefit of a direct competitor of PXP.
This Agreement permits Client to purchase a subscription to Solutions and related Professional Services from PXP pursuant to Quotes and sets forth the terms and conditions under which those Solutions and Professional Services will be delivered.
From time to time, PXP may modify this Agreement, changes become effective for existing Clients upon posting of the modified Agreement. If Client does not agree to such changes, Client must notify PXP of such disagreement within ten (10) days, and PXP (at its option and as Client’s exclusive remedy) may either: (i) permit Client to continue under the prior version of this Agreement until the next renewal of the current Order Term, after which the modified Agreement will apply (for example, if Client is on an annual Order Term, then the modified Agreement will apply starting from the beginning of Client’s next annual Order Term after it is posted) or (ii) terminate this Agreement and provide to Client a refund of any Solution fees that Client already paid with respect to the terminated portion of the applicable Order Term. PXP will use reasonable efforts to notify Client of the changes through Client’s Account, email, or other means. Client may be required to click to accept the modified Agreement before using the Solutions in a renewal Order Term, and in any event continued use of the Solutions during the renewal Order Term will constitute Client’s acceptance of the version of the Agreement in effect at the time the renewal Order Term begins.
Each party expressly agrees that this Agreement is legally binding upon it.
