Terms of Service

Terms of Service

THESE TERMS OF SERVICE (“TERMS”), TOGETHER WITH ANY RELEVANT SERVICE-SPECIFIC TERMS, SCHEDULES OR DOCUMENTATION (“DOCUMENTATION”), CONTAIN THE TERMS UPON WHICH YOU/YOUR BUSINESS IS GRANTED ACCESS TO CONFERMA’S PLATFORM, (“THE PLATFORM”). PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY BEFORE ACCESSING THE PLATFORM.

BY CREATING AN ACCOUNT FOR AND/OR USING THE PLATFORM, YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS WHICH WILL BIND YOUR BUSINESS/EMPLOYER (“CUSTOMER”), ITS EMPLOYEES AND ANY OTHER PERSON WHO USES THE PLATFORM UNDER THE CUSTOMER’S AUTHORITY (“AUTHORISED USERS”). YOU ALSO AGREE THAT YOU HAVE FULL CAPACITY AND AUTHORITY TO ENTER INTO THESE TERMS ON BEHALF OF THE CUSTOMER AND TO BIND THE CUSTOMER TO THESE TERMS.

IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS, YOU MUST NOT CREATE AN ACCOUNT AND/OR USE THE PLATFORM

As used in these Terms, “you” and “your” refers to the Customer registering to use any of the services (the “Service“) provided by Conferma Limited (“Conferma“, “we” or “us“), a limited company registered in England and Wales, and its licensors and other suppliers (collectively, “providers“). “Party” shall mean a party to these Terms and “Parties” shall mean both of them.

1.    GRANT OF LICENCE

a.     Conferma hereby grants the Customer and its Authorised Users a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to access the Platform and use the Service (the “Licence“) in accordance with these Terms and the Documentation, which may set forth different use rights for different categories of accounts (for example, administrators, regular users, etc.).

b.     The Licence grant is expressly conditioned on the Customer’s agreement to be bound by and to use the Platform in accordance with these Terms.

c.     The Customer acknowledges that all intellectual property rights in the Platform, and the Service, belong to Conferma and that the Customer has no rights in, or to, the Platform (or the Service) other than the right to use them in accordance with these Terms.

d.     The Customer shall indemnify and hold harmless Conferma and the Introducer against all claims, actions, proceedings, losses, damages, expenses and costs (including without limitation court costs and reasonable legal fees) arising out of or in connection with the Customer’s use of the Platform and the Service in breach of these Terms; where, for the purpose of these Terms, “Introducer” means the financial institution or other entity with which each of Conferma and the Customer has a commercial relationship and which has either introduced the Customer to Conferma for the use of the Platform or has agreed to allow use of the Platform by the Customer.

e.     If a third party claims that the Platform or its use infringes the third party’s patent rights, copyright or trade secrets, then Conferma will defend the Customer against the claim, at Conferma’s expense, and indemnify the Customer against any resulting court fees and finally determined damage awards, if any, provided, and on condition, that the Customer:

                                                 i.   Promptly notifies Conferma in writing of such a claim;

                                                ii.   Does not make any admissions in respect of the claim;

                                              iii.   Gives Conferma sole control of the defence;

                                              iv.   Does not settle the claim without Conferma’s prior written consent; and

                                               v.   Assists Conferma in the defence at Conferma’s request and reasonable expense.

f.      If in respect of any claim referred to in section 5 above:

                                                 i.   Conferma so defends the Customer, but a court of competent jurisdiction nevertheless orders the Customer to stop using the Platform as a result of the claim, and Conferma is unable (having made reasonable efforts) to have the order stayed or overturned on appeal or, Conferma’s legal counsel advise against appeal, or

                                                ii.   Conferma settles the claim on terms that require the Customer to cease using the Platform, or

                                              iii.   Conferma reasonably determines that the Customer should stop using the Platform, then Conferma will, at Conferma’s option and expense:

1.     replace or modify the Platform to make it non-infringing while still performing the same or substantially the same functions; or

2.     procure the right for the Customer to continue using the Platform; or

3.     if in Conferma’s judgment neither (1) or (2) is commercially feasible, direct the Customer to stop using the Platform and Conferma shall have no liability whatsoever to the Customer arising out of or in connection with such direction to cease use of the Platform. Conferma will not be responsible for any infringing use that the Customer may make of the Platform after Conferma directs the Customer to stop using the Platform.

g.     Conferma’s obligations under sections 5-6 above are the Customer’s exclusive remedies for any alleged or actual infringement by the Platform or the Customer’s use of the Platform.

h.     Conferma shall have no liability pursuant to section 5 if the claim arises out of or in connection with:

1. 8. 1. any use by the Customer of the Platform in breach of these Terms; or
      2. any unauthorised modification or alteration of the Platform by the Customer and/or its employees, agents or consultants.

a.     Each Party acknowledges that

                                             i.       in the course of performing its respective obligations under these Terms, it may receive the other Party’s information relating to its business, customers, subscribers, personnel, research, development, finances, technologies, marketing plans, business opportunities, financial or other affairs, including trade secrets and other proprietary, non-public information relating to such Party’s product plans, designs, costs, prices and product names, or know-how but excluding information that

                                       iv.         unless expressly stated otherwise pursuant to these Terms, a Party shall have no rights in or to the other Party’s Confidential Information in its possession other than the right to use such Confidential Information solely for and limited to the performance of its obligations under these Terms, as required by applicable law, rules and regulations and, in respect of Conferma, the provision of the Platform and the Services to the Customer (the “Permitted Purpose”).

b.     Each Party shall:

                                      i.         hold the other Party’s Confidential Information in its possession or control in confidence and not disclose it, except to (i) in respect of the Customer, its Authorised Users to whom disclosure is necessary for the performance of its obligations under these Terms and who are bound by an agreement for the protection of Confidential Information that is at least as restrictive as these Terms; (ii) in respect of Conferma, the Introducer and any other entity involved in the Customer’s use of and access to the Services and which requires access to the Confidential Information in order to provide its services to the Customer;

f.      A waiver by either Party of a particular condition, right, or obligation arising under these Terms (A) is to be given effect only if it is expressly stated in a document signed by that Party, and (B) is to be construed as strictly limited to the condition, right or obligation to which it applied only.
