3. Users

3.1. Responsibility

Customer may authorize Users to access and use the Products, in accordance with the Acceptable Use Policy and Customer's Scope of Use. Customer is responsible for its Users' compliance with this Agreement and all activities of its Users, including Orders they may place, and apps, and how Users access and use Customer Data.

Customer must ensure that each User keeps its login credentials confidential and must promptly notify Vinli if it becomes aware of any unauthorized access to any User login credentials or other unauthorized access to or use of the Products.

3.3. Domain Ownership

Where a Cloud Product requires Customer to specify a domain (such as www.example.com) for the Cloud Product's or a feature's operation, Vinli may verify that Customer or an Affiliate owns or controls that domain. Vinli has no obligation to provide that Cloud Product or feature if Vinli cannot verify that Customer or an Affiliate owns or controls the domain. Product administrators appointed by Customer may also take over management of accounts previously registered using an email address belonging to Customer's domain, which become "managed accounts" (or similar term).

4.2. Security Program

Vinli has implemented and will maintain an information security program that uses appropriate physical, technical and organizational measures designed to protect Customer Data and Customer Materials from unauthorized access, destruction, use, modification or disclosure.

Where applicable, the service level commitment for a Cloud Product is specified in the Service Level Agreement.

4.4. Data Retrieval

A Customer may retrieve its Customer Data from the Cloud Products by contacting Vinli Support Services at support@vin.li.

  • (a) Customer Data may violate Law, Section 2.2 (Restrictions), or the rights of others (including relating to a takedown request received), or
  • (b) Customer's use of the Cloud Products threatens the security or operation of the Cloud Products,

then Vinli may: (i) limit access to, or remove, the relevant Customer Data, or (ii) suspend Customer's or any User's access to the relevant Cloud Products. Vinli may also take any such measures where required by Law, or at the request of a governmental authority.

This Agreement and the Third-Party Code Policy apply to open source software and commercial third-party software Vinli includes in the Products.

6.2. Third-Party Products

Customer may choose to use the Products with third-party platforms, apps, add-ons, services or products ("Third-Party Products"). Use of such Third-Party Products with the Products may require access to Customer Data and other data by the third-party provider, which, for Cloud Products Vinli will permit on Customer's behalf if Customer has enabled that Third-Party Product. Likewise, such use of Third-Party Products may entail access to Third-Party Product data by Vinli. Customer's use of Third-Party Products is subject to the relevant provider's terms of use, not this Agreement, but data sent from the Third-Party Product to Customer's Vinli account is subject to this Agreement. Vinli does not control and has no liability for Third-Party Products. Vinli makes no warranty that the Products will, or will continue to, connect or interoperate with any Third-Party Product.

7. Support Services

Vinli will provide Support Services as described in the Order and applicable Policies. Vinli's provision of Support Services is subject to Customer providing timely access to Customer Materials and personnel reasonably requested by Vinli.

8. Ordering Process and Delivery

No Order is binding until Vinli provides its acceptance, including by sending a confirmation email, providing access to the Products, or making license or access keys available to Customer. No terms of any purchase order or other business form used by Customer will supersede, supplement, or otherwise apply to this Agreement or Vinli. Vinli will deliver login instructions or license keys for Products electronically, to Customer's account (or through other reasonable means) promptly upon receiving payment of the fees.

9. Billing and Payment

9.1. Fees

(a) Direct Purchases. If Customer purchases directly from Vinli, fees and any payment terms are specified in Customer's Order with Vinli.

(b) Resellers. If Customer purchases through a Reseller, Customer must pay all applicable amounts directly to the Reseller, and Customer's order details (e.g., Products and Scope of Use) will be specified in the Order placed by the Reseller with Vinli on Customer's behalf.

(c) Renewals. Unless otherwise specified in an Order and subject to the Product or Support Services continuing to be generally available, a Subscription Term will automatically renew at Vinli's then current rates for: (i) if Customer's prior Subscription Term was for a period less than twelve (12) months, another Subscription Term of a period equal to Customer's prior Subscription Term, or (ii) if Customer's prior Subscription Term was for twelve (12) months or more, twelve (12) months. Either party may elect not to renew a Subscription Term by giving notice to the other party 30 days before the end of the current Subscription Term. Customer must provide any notice of non-renewal through account settings in the Products, by contacting Vinli's support team or by otherwise providing Vinli notice.

(d) Increased Scope of Use. If Customer exceeds the Scope of Use purchased, unless otherwise agreed with Vinli in writing, Customer must upgrade its subscription or pay for the increased Scope of Use. Unless otherwise specified in an applicable Order, Vinli will charge Customer for any increased Scope of Use at Vinli's then-current rates, which may be prorated for the remainder of the then-current Subscription Term.

(e) Refunds. All fees and expenses are non-refundable, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. For any purchases Customer makes through a Reseller, any refunds from Vinli payable to Customer relating to that purchase will be remitted by that Reseller, unless Vinli specifically notifies Customer otherwise at the time of refund.

9.2. Taxes

(a) Taxes Generally. Fees and expenses are exclusive of any sales, use, GST, value-added, withholding or similar taxes or levies that apply to Customer's Orders. Other than taxes on Vinli's net income, Customer is responsible for any such taxes or levies and must pay those taxes or levies, which Vinli will itemize separately, in accordance with an applicable invoice.

(b) Withholding Taxes. To the extent Customer is required to withhold tax from payment to Vinli in certain jurisdictions, Customer must provide valid documentation it receives from the taxing authority in such jurisdictions confirming remittance of withholding. This documentation must be provided at the time of payment of the applicable invoice to Vinli.

(c) Exemptions. If Customer claims exemption from any sales tax, VAT, GST or similar taxes under this Agreement, Customer must provide Vinli a valid tax exemption certificate or tax ID at the time of Order, and after receipt of valid evidence of exemption, Vinli will not include applicable taxes on the relevant Customer invoice.

9.3. Suspension for Non-payment

Vinli may suspend Customer's rights to use Products or receive Support or Advisory Services if payment is overdue, and Vinli has given Customer no fewer than ten (10) days' written notice.
