  1. RESTRICTIONS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
  2. This is a contract for Services and the Application software will be installed, accessed and maintained only by ApexPayTT and no license is granted thereto. Client agrees that it will not, directly or indirectly: reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or otherwise attempt to discover the source code, object code or underlying structure, ideas or algorithms of the Services or any Application, software, documentation or data related to the Services ("Software"); modify, translate, or create derivative works based on the Services or any Software; or copy (except for archival purposes), rent, lease, distribute, pledge, assign, or otherwise transfer or encumber rights to the Services or any Software; use the Services or any Software for timesharing or service bureau purposes or otherwise for the benefit of a third party; or remove any proprietary notices or labels. The Client represents, covenants, and warrants that the Client will use the Services only in compliance with ApexPayTT’s standard policies then in effect (the "Policy") and all applicable laws (including but not limited to policies and laws related to spamming, privacy (including but not limited to any European privacy laws), intellectual property, consumer and child protection, obscenity or defamation). The Client hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless ApexPayTT against any damages, losses, liabilities, settlements and expenses (including without limitation costs and attorneys’ fees) in connection with any claim or action that arises from an alleged violation of the foregoing or otherwise from Client's use of Services or the Storage Service as described below. Although ApexPayTT has no obligation to monitor the content provided by Client or Client's use of the Services, ApexPayTT may do so and may remove any such content or prohibit any use of the Services it believes may be (or are alleged to be) in violation of the foregoing.
  3. Client shall be responsible for obtaining and maintaining any equipment and ancillary services needed to connect to, access or otherwise use the Services, including, without limitation, modems, hardware, server, software, operating system, networking, web servers, web services, long distance and local telephone service (collectively, "Equipment").

Client shall also be responsible for maintaining the security of the Equipment, Client account, ancillary services, passwords (including but not limited to administrative and user passwords) and files, and for all uses of Client account, Services or the Equipment with or without Client's knowledge or consent.
  4. Client acknowledges and agrees that Client is the controller of personal data and Client remains responsible for the obligations of a controller, including but not limited to, the responsibility for complying with any laws and regulations providing for notice, choice, and/or consent prior to transferring the personal data to ApexPayTT for processing. The Client acts as a data exporter, and decides what data to upload and process, or to allow its users/customers to upload and process, on the Services. The data subjects may include the Client's representatives and end users, such as employees, job applicants, contractors, collaborators, partners, and customers of the Client. Data subjects also may include individuals attempting to communicate or transfer Personal Data to users of the Services. Personal Data may include, among other information, personal contact information such as name, home address, home telephone or mobile number, fax number, email address, and passwords; information concerning family, lifestyle and social circumstances including age, date of birth, marital status, number of children and name(s) of spouse and/or children; employment details including employer name, job title and function, employment history, salary and other benefits, job performance and other capabilities, education/qualification, identification numbers, social security details and business contact details; financial details; and goods and services provided. The Client shall disclose personal data to ApexPayTT, the data importer, only as necessary for ApexPayTT to provide the Services in accordance with these Terms of Service.
  5. In order to enable the Client to meet requirements under applicable data protection laws, the parties hereby agree that transfers from Client to ApexPayTT are made subject to these Terms of Service and with Client acting as the “data exporter” and ApexPayTT acting as the “data importer(s)”; or (ii) other appropriate transfer mechanisms that provide an adequate level of protection in compliance with the applicable data protection laws. Client may terminate the SCC 2010 at its discretion by written notice to ApexPayTT. The SCC 2010 shall apply only to the transfer of personal data to any country not recognized by the European Commission as providing adequate protection of personal data or any recipient not covered by a legal framework deemed by the European Commission as providing an adequate level of protection for personal data. The SCC 2010 are effective as of the Effective Date and will not apply retroactively. The SCC 2010 will automatically terminate upon (i) the end of the Term or otherwise upon conclusion of ApexPayTT's provision of the Services or (ii) ApexPayTT having implemented alternative adequate safeguards in compliance with the applicable requirements of respective data protection laws and other applicable local laws and regulations concerning international and onward data transfers (e.g. Binding Corporate Rules for Processors).
  6. ApexPayTT shall maintain appropriate administrative, physical and technical safeguards designed to protect personal data provided through the Services as described at Security Policy, to the extent applicable to ApexPayTT’s processing of personal data.
  7. Client hereby instructs and authorizes the use of sub-processors to assist ApexPayTT with respect to the performance of ApexPayTT's obligations in provision of the Services. ApexPayTT requires such sub-processors undertake obligations of a sub-processor as required by these Terms of Service. ApexPayTT and its sub-processors provide the Services globally, but any processing of personal data shall only take place in facilities in jurisdictions in which ApexPayTT and its sub-processors support the provision of the Services.
  8. For any audits or certifications, except where applicable law requires otherwise, the parties agree they will utilize the details set forth at Data &Security Policy. If such details do not satisfy the requirement, or if Client makes some other request or instruction of ApexPayTT, ApexPayTT shall respond in good faith and provide Client with commercially reasonable information on ApexPayTT's standard processes and an estimate of additional fees and costs that Client would have to pay before ApexPayTT has to grant any requests or instructions that ApexPayTT does not offer as part of its standard services. The Client shall not be obligated to pay such additional fees or costs, unless and until Client, at its sole discretion, agrees to such payment obligations in writing. ApexPayTT shall not be obligated to meet Client's requests or instructions until agreement on additional payments, if any, is reached, and ApexPayTT has received such payments, if any. If the parties, acting reasonably and in good faith, cannot come to an agreement on such payments, requests or instructions, the Client may terminate their use of the Service, subject to Client’s payment of all fees for the then-current term, as such term had originally been agreed by the parties.
  9. Until the Termination of Services (under Section 7 of this agreement), ApexPayTT shall provide Client access to the personal data so that Client may correct, delete, or block such personal data. If the Client is unable to correct, delete, or block such personal data, then to the extent permitted by law and pursuant to the Clients detailed written instructions, ApexPayTT will make such corrections, amendments, or deletions on the Client's behalf pursuant to a mutually agreeable statement of work in which Client agrees to pay ApexPayTT’s reasonable fees associated with the performance of any such correction, deletion or blocking of personal data. If Client or a User uses the Services to delete any Client Data and the Client Data cannot be recovered by Client or an End User (such as from the “inactive" list feature), this use will constitute an instruction to ApexPayTT to delete the relevant Client Data from ApexPayTT’s systems in accordance with applicable law. ApexPayTT will comply with this instruction as soon as reasonably practicable (but in not less than 30 days to allow for recovery from backups in the instance of an accidental deletion by a Client or User) and within a maximum period of 180 days, unless EU or EU Member State law requires storage. If a Client cancels the Service, ApexPayTT will delete the Client Data from ApexPayTT's systems within a maximum period of 180 days, unless EU or EU Member State law requires storage.
  10. In the event of a Security Incident, ApexPayTT will notify Customer in accordance with ApexPayTT’s obligations under the applicable law or regulatory requirement that applies to the Security Incident. “Security Incident” shall mean the misappropriation of personal data located on ApexPayTT systems or processed by providing the Services that compromises the security, confidentiality, or integrity of such personal data. Security Incidents will not include unsuccessful attempts or activities that do not compromise the security of Client data, including unsuccessful log-in attempts, pings, port scans, denial of service attacks, and other network attacks on firewalls or networked systems. Notification(s) of any Security Incident(s) will be delivered to the Client Email Address or, at ApexPayTT’s discretion, by direct communication (for example, by phone call or an in-person meeting). Client is solely responsible for ensuring that their Email Address is current and valid. ApexPayTT will not assess the contents of Client Data in order to identify information subject to any specific legal requirements. Client is solely responsible for complying with incident notification laws applicable to Client and fulfilling any third party notification obligations related to any Security Incident(s). ApexPayTT’s notification of or response to a Security Incident under this Section 4(h) will not be construed as an acknowledgement by ApexPayTT of any fault or liability with respect to the Security Incident.
  11. If ApexPayTT receives a request from a data subject in connection with the processing of such person’s personal data on Client's behalf, then ApexPayTT shall notify Client, to the extent legally permitted; provided, however, that Client shall have the sole obligation of responding directly to such data subject. ApexPayTT shall reasonably cooperate with the Client in the event of an investigation by a data protection regulator or similar authority, if and to the extent that such investigation relates to ApexPayTT's processing of personal data.
  12. ApexPayTT shall keep a list of sub-processors and make it available for Client’s review upon request on an annual basis or in the event that a new sub-processor is added. Customer consents to ApexPayTT’s use of sub-processors in performance of the Applicable Services.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Client may have obtained an exemption from relevant taxes or duties as of the time such taxes or duties are levied or assessed. In such event, Client shall have the right to provide to ApexPayTT with any such exemption information and ApexPayTT will use reasonable efforts to provide such invoicing documents as may enable the Client to obtain a refund or credit for the amount so paid from any relevant revenue authority if such a refund or credit is available.

  1. NON-PAYMENT AND SUSPENSION

Delinquent invoices are subject to interest charges of 1.0% per month on any outstanding balance, or the maximum permitted by law, whichever is less, plus all expenses of collection. Client will not be charged for User seats during any period of suspension. If Client or ApexPayTT initiates termination of this Agreement, Client will be obligated to pay the balance due on account computed in accordance with this Section and the Fees, Billing and Renewal Section above. Client agrees that ApexPayTT may charge such unpaid Fees and charges to Client's credit card or otherwise bill Client for such unpaid Fees and charges. Client agrees and acknowledges that ApexPayTT has no obligation to retain Client Data and that such Client Data may be irretrievably deleted if Client's account becomes delinquent for 30 or more days.

Either party may terminate this Agreement or reduce the number of employees, effective only upon the expiration of the then current Term, by notifying the other party in writing at least five (5) business days prior to the date of the invoice for the following Term. In the case of free trials, notifications provided through the Service indicating the remaining number of days in the free trial shall constitute notice of termination. In the event this Agreement is terminated (other than by reason of Client's breach), ApexPayTT will make available to Client a file of the Client Data within 30 days of termination if Client so requests at the time of termination. Client agrees and acknowledges that ApexPayTT has no obligation to retain the Client Data, and may delete such Client Data, more than 30 days after termination.
