Terms of Service Agreement

1. TERM AND TERMINATION

1.1 Term. The term (“Term”) of the Agreement shall begin on the Schedule Effective Date of the Schedule referencing this Agreement and continue until terminated in accordance with Section 1.2 below. The term of any Schedule shall be as set forth therein.

1.2 Termination. Either Party may immediately terminate this Agreement or an affected Schedule upon written notice to the other Party if: (a) the other Party is in default of this Agreement or the affected Schedule and fails to cure, or begin implementation of a mutually-agreed-upon plan to cure, such default within thirty (30) business days of written notice from the other Party specifying the nature of such default and requiring its remedy; (b) the other Party petitions for relief under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any involuntary petition is filed against the other Party and is not dismissed within sixty (60) days; (c) relief under the Federal Bankruptcy Code is granted with respect to the other Party as a debtor; (d) the other Party makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or (e) the other Party ceases doing business, assigns, or attempts to assign any portion of this Agreement to an entity other than as provided in Section 12.5 below.

1.3 Effect of Termination. Upon termination: (a) LiveRamp shall not (and shall not permit any third-party to) access or use Company Data, unless expressly licensed by Company to LiveRamp in a Schedule, and (b) Company shall not (and shall not permit any third-party to) access or use any of LiveRamp’s Services (or part thereof) made accessible by LiveRamp, unless expressly licensed by LiveRamp to Company in an accompanying Schedule. “Company Data” means any data that Company owns or licenses from a third-party and provides (either itself or by a third-party) to LiveRamp for use in the performance of Services. For clarity, Company Data does not include any data that was or is independently obtained or derived by LiveRamp. If Company Data includes any information that can be used to distinguish or trace an individual’s offline identity, including, without limitation, name, email address, phone number and/or postal address, as well as any information that is directly linked to these identifiers, then such information shall constitute personally identifiable information (“PII”). PII that has been transformed using a one-way salt and hash, encryption, or other equivalent or more stringent cryptographic technique (e.g., tokenizing) shall (in such state) no longer be considered PII for the purposes of this Agreement.

2. SERVICES.

2.1 Schedules. The “Services” to be provided by LiveRamp to Company will be set forth in one or more schedules, statements of work, order forms, work orders, or other documents executed by the Parties and expressly made subject to this Agreement, including any amendments thereto (each, a “Schedule”), and will describe such Services, the applicable fees, and any other terms agreed to by the Parties. Any legal entity that either directly or indirectly (through one or more intermediaries) controls, is controlled by, or is under common control, with a Party to this Agreement (each, an “Affiliate”) shall be authorized to enter into a Schedule pursuant to this Agreement. With respect to a Schedule executed by any Affiliate of either Party, all references in this Agreement to such Affiliate’s related Party (either LiveRamp or Company) will be deemed to include the Affiliate unless the context indicates otherwise, and the Affiliate agrees to abide by all such terms. For purposes of this Agreement, “control” means possessing, directly or indirectly, the power to direct or cause the direction of the management, policies, and/or operations of an entity, whether through ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise.

2.2 Excusable Delay. Each Party’s delay or nonperformance of its obligations under this Agreement or any Schedule shall be excused to the extent caused by the other Party’s failure to perform its obligations thereunder. The non-performing Party will provide the other Party with reasonable notice of such non-performance or delay and will use commercially reasonable efforts to continue to perform. Company shall continue to pay LiveRamp for Services actually performed by LiveRamp prior to and during any such period.

2.3 LiveRamp Locations and Personnel. All Services performed pursuant to any Schedule may be performed, in whole or in part, by any LiveRamp director, officer, employee, affiliate, consultant, subcontractor, or representative (collectively, “LiveRamp Personnel”) from any environment that is owned or leased by LiveRamp or a LiveRamp Affiliate or is otherwise maintained by LiveRamp Personnel. Any such environment must meet, in all material respects, the applicable requirements established in this Agreement and any Schedule hereto. LiveRamp Personnel shall access Company Data only to the extent required to perform the Services or processing assigned to such LiveRamp Personnel. All LiveRamp Personnel shall be required to comply with the terms of this Agreement and the applicable Schedule(s), including any confidentiality and information security requirements set forth in Exhibit A. Any act or omission of LiveRamp’s Personnel shall be deemed to be the act or omission of LiveRamp, for which LiveRamp will be liable in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.

3. PRICING AND PAYMENT.

3.1 Pricing. The pricing for the Services shall be set forth in each applicable Schedule. Unless otherwise specified, all fees are exclusive of applicable taxes.

3.2 Taxes. Company shall pay all taxes of a transactional nature (including sales, use, and value added taxes) levied in connection with this Agreement in accordance with applicable tax laws. Each Party is responsible for taxes based on its own net income, corporate franchise, business license, property, and employee payroll. To the extent required by law, LiveRamp will collect applicable taxes from Company unless Company provides an exemption certificate, direct pay permit, or other valid documentation. If Company is required under the laws of any jurisdiction to withhold taxes from payments made to LiveRamp pursuant to this Agreement, Company shall deduct and withhold the amount of such taxes for the account of LiveRamp. Amounts payable to LiveRamp shall be reduced by the amount of taxes so deducted and withheld, provided that Company transmits to LiveRamp an official tax certificate or other evidence of such tax obligations.

3.3 Payment. Unless otherwise set forth in a Schedule, LiveRamp shall invoice Company for: (a) any fixed fees, including minimum fees, provided for under any Schedule(s), in advance and on a quarterly basis; and (b) for all variable fees provided for under any Schedule(s), as incurred and on a monthly basis. Payment of all fees is due within thirty (30) calendar days from Company’s receipt of invoice (if sent via electronic transmission, Company’s receipt is deemed to be the date of such transmission). LiveRamp will deliver auto-generated invoices to Company via email. Any other invoice delivery method (e.g., through third-party portals) will be subject to prior review and mutual agreement of the Parties, provided that Company remains responsible for any applicable processing fees that are outside the scope of LiveRamp’s standard invoice delivery. If Company disputes the validity of an invoiced fee, Company must provide prompt written notice within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt of such invoice stating the details of any such dispute. If only a portion of invoiced fees is in dispute, Company shall pay all undisputed amounts in accordance with the terms of this Section. Acceptance by LiveRamp of any partial payment does not constitute a waiver of the disputed fees. Any undisputed fees not paid within thirty (30) days of receipt of invoice shall accrue interest at a rate of one percent (1%) per month or the maximum lawful rate, whichever is less, with such amount accruing and determined as of the date such undisputed fee was originally due. Additionally, if Company fails to make timely payments, LiveRamp may, without limiting any other remedies available to it, suspend Company’s access to the Services until Company has payment in full to LiveRamp for any outstanding invoices.

4. PROPRIETARY RIGHTS.

4.1 Company Intellectual Property. Company owns and retains all right, title, and interest (including, without limitation, all intellectual property rights) in and to Company Data and any updates or modifications to the foregoing.

4.2 LiveRamp Intellectual Property. LiveRamp owns and retains all right, title, and interest (including, without limitation, all intellectual property rights) in any data, technology, infrastructure, methods, or know-how (excluding Company Data) in providing its Services.

4.3 Other Intellectual Property Rights. Each Party may only access and use the other Party’s data and technology as expressly set forth herein, and each Party retains all intellectual property rights in its own data and technology. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect or modify either Party’s ownership rights in any pre-existing or future works, trademarks, copyrights, or technologies independently developed or created by either Party. As between the Parties, LiveRamp will own any software functionality provided to Company that establishes the linkage between any Company Data and any third-party identifier, including any LiveRamp identifier, that enables such linkage and may only be used as set forth in this Agreement and the applicable Schedule(s).

4.4 No Implied Rights. Except for the limited rights and licenses expressly granted under this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement grants, by implication, waiver, estoppel, or otherwise, to Company or any third party any intellectual property rights or other right, title, or interest in or to the Services.

5. COMPANY DATA USE AND RESTRICTIONS

5.1 Restrictions on the Use of Company Data. Other than the rights expressly granted to LiveRamp by this Agreement or any Schedule, no right, title or interest in Company Data is transferred to LiveRamp. LiveRamp shall not, and shall not authorize any third party to process, retain, use, sell, transfer, disclose, or otherwise share Company Data for any purposes other than as directed under this Agreement or applicable Schedules. Notwithstanding the foregoing, LiveRamp may disclose Company Data to its own vendors, subprocessors, or service providers where LiveRamp has carried out adequate due diligence on each such service provider and included terms in the contract between LiveRamp and such service provider that are equivalent to those set out in this Agreement or applicable Schedule(s).

5.2 Testing Company Data. LiveRamp may use Company Data internally in order to perform quality control and improve the functionality of its core Services. Such internal uses shall include enhancements of existing Services received by Company.

5.3 Enabling Individual Requests. LiveRamp shall promptly and in good faith take reasonable actions and provide such information and assistance as Company may reasonably request as directly related to the LiveRamp Services to enable Company to honor requests of individuals to exercise their rights under relevant law. LiveRamp may determine, in its sole discretion, the mechanism that Company must use to communicate such requests to LiveRamp.

6. CONFIDENTIALITY.

The details of an occurrence of a data breach of the Company Data by LiveRamp, and the facts and circumstances related thereto, do not qualify as the Confidential Information of either Party.

6.3 Obligations. Each receiving Party shall: (a) hold the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information in strict confidence; (b) except as required by any court or regulatory or government agency pursuant to a written court order, subpoena, deposition, regulatory or civil investigation demand, or other process of applicable local, state, federal, or international law (collectively, “Law”), not disclose such Confidential Information to any third-party or use it for any purpose other than as specifically authorized by the disclosing Party and permitted by this Agreement; and (c) employ commercially reasonable steps to protect the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information from unauthorized or inadvertent disclosure, including those steps that it takes to protect its own confidential and proprietary information. Each receiving Party may disclose the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information only to those of its and its Affiliates’ respective directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives and advisors (including without limitation, legal counsel, accountants, auditors and consultants) (collectively, and when acting at the direction or for the benefit of thee applicable Party, its “Representatives”) on a “need to know” basis and only to the extent necessary to enable the Parties to adequately perform their respective responsibilities. Each receiving Party hereby undertakes to ensure the individual compliance of such Representatives with the terms hereof. No copies of any Confidential Information may be made by a receiving Party except as necessary to perform its obligations pursuant to this Agreement and the applicable Schedule(s). Confidential Information may not be translated into another format or language, or decompiled or reverse engineered without the disclosing Party’s prior written consent. Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, each receiving Party shall destroy all Confidential Information of the disclosing Party and any copies thereof. Following any such destruction, each receiving Party shall promptly confirm to the disclosing Party in a writing (email being sufficient) that it has fully complied with the requirements of this Section.  

6.4 Injunctive Relief. The Parties each acknowledge that a Party’s breach of Sections 6.1, 6.2, and/or 6.3 may result in irreparable harm and significant injury to the other Party and its clients and/or partners that may be difficult to ascertain. The non-breaching Party will have the right to seek, in addition to any other remedies that may be available to the non-breaching Party at law or in equity (including an award of reasonable attorneys’ fees where it is a prevailing Party), an immediate injunction in the event of any breach of any of Sections 6.1, 6.2, and/or 6.3 without posting bond.

6.5 Unauthorized Disclosure. Each Party will, as soon as reasonably practical after discovery, report to the other Party any unauthorized disclosure of or access to the other Party’s Confidential Information, subject to any reasonable restrictions placed on the timing of such notice by a law enforcement or regulatory agency investigating the incident, and take all reasonable measures to prevent any further unauthorized disclosure or access.

6.6 Mandated Disclosure. If a receiving Party is requested or required to provide Confidential Information of a disclosing Party pursuant to Section 6.3 above (“Mandated Disclosure”), the receiving Party must: (a) unless requested or required by applicable Law, provide the disclosing Party with prompt written notice and reasonable cooperation if a protective order is sought; (b) take reasonable steps to limit any such disclosure only to the Confidential Information required to be compliant with the Mandated Disclosure; and (c) continue to otherwise protect all Confidential Information disclosed in response to such Mandated Disclosure.

Unless expressly authorized in a Schedule, Company shall not provide to LiveRamp, or permit any third-party to provide to LiveRamp on Company’s behalf, any of the following information (“Prohibited Data”): (a) any government-issued identification number (e.g., Social Security Number, driver’s license number, state identification number, or passport number); (b) any financial or customer account number, including financial institution or bank account number or a credit or debit card number; (c) information describing any individual’s known health or medical condition(s), including Protected Health Information, as defined in 45 CFR 160.103; (d) sensitive personal data or special categories of personal data as defined by GDPR, if applicable, or applicable data breach notification laws; (e) unique biometric data or digital representation of biometric data; (f) any individual’s full date of birth (e.g., month, date, and year); (g) maiden name of any individual’s mother; (h) any individual’s digitized or other electronic signature; (i) any username, email address or other unique electronic identifier or routing code, which is sent in combination with a personal identification code, password, or security question and answer and would permit access to any online account; or (j) any data associated with any individual under the age of eighteen (18). If Company should transfer any Prohibited Data to LiveRamp in violation of this Section, Company shall immediately notify LiveRamp and inform LiveRamp of the date, time, and other pertinent information related to the transfer so LiveRamp may take the steps necessary to remove the Prohibited Data from its systems.

Company must provide written notice to LiveRamp of any such claim in sufficient detail with any necessary backup information and/or documentation.

9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.

9.1 Indirect Damages. NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOSS OF INCOME, REVENUE, PROFITS, OR GOODWILL, BUT NOT INCLUDING ANY FEES PAYABLE HEREUNDER), EVEN IF A PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES IN ADVANCE.

10. INDEMNIFICATION.

10.1 General. Each Party (as an “Indemnifying Party”) agrees to indemnify and hold the other Party and its Representatives (each an “Indemnified Party”) harmless from and against any third-party claim, action, or liability (including damages, costs, expenses, and reasonable attorneys’ fees) that may arise against the Indemnified Party as the result of: (a) personal injuries or damages to tangible real property caused by the Indemnifying Party and/or its Representatives; (b) the Indemnifying Party’s failure to comply with all applicable Laws and regulations; or (c) the misappropriation or misuse of the Indemnified Party’s Confidential Information by the Indemnifying Party.

10.2 Infringement.

1. Except as provided below, each Indemnifying Party shall defend and indemnify the Indemnified Party from and against any damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of any third-party claim that the materials provided to it by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Agreement (including any Company-provided data or other content or Confidential Information) infringes a valid patent, trademark, or copyright, or misappropriates a trade secret of a third-party, provided that: (i) the Indemnified Party has provided prompt written notice of such claim and reasonable cooperation, information, and assistance in connection therewith; and (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall have sole control and authority with respect to the defense, settlement, and/or compromise of any such claim.
2. Should the Services provided to Company, or any part thereof, become, or in LiveRamp’s opinion be likely to become, the subject of a third-party claim of infringement, LiveRamp may, at its option and expense, either procure for Company the right to continue using such Services or replace or modify such Services as to make them non-infringing. If replacement or modification is not possible or is commercially unreasonable, Company will receive a pro rata refund of the fees paid to LiveRamp with respect to the particular Services that are the subject of such claim.
3. Sections 10.2(a) and 10.2(b) state the entire liability of LiveRamp and the sole and exclusive remedy of Company with respect to any third-party claim of infringement. Neither Party shall have any liability or obligation to the other for any infringement claim to the extent caused by or based upon: (i) the combination of materials with other products or services not furnished or authorized by the Party providing the materials to the extent the infringement would not have occurred but for such combination; or (ii) additions or modifications made to the materials after delivery that are not made by the Party providing the materials or authorized by this Agreement and the applicable Schedule(s) to the extent the infringement would not have occurred but for such addition or modification.

10.3 Indemnification Procedure. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to exercise reasonable control over any litigation within the scope of these indemnities; provided, however, that the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in any such litigation insofar as it concerns claims against it. That right to participate includes the Indemnified Party’s right to select and retain counsel for representation at the Indemnified Party’s own expense. No Party shall have any obligation to defend or indemnify the other Party if the intended Indemnifying Party is not notified promptly of the claim and is materially prejudiced thereby. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate to the extent necessary in the defense of any claim within the scope of these indemnities.

11. PUBLICITY.

Except as required Law, neither Party shall use the other Party’s name, logo, or trademark without the other Party’s approval.

12. MISCELLANEOUS.

LiveRamp will notify Company of any material updates to the Agreement URL.

12.4 Severance and Waiver. If any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement or any Schedule shall for any reason be held to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permissible to affect the original intent of the Parties, and the same shall not affect any of the other portions thereof. Failure or delay by either Party in exercising any right hereunder shall not be a waiver of such right; to be enforceable, a waiver must be in writing and signed by the waiving party.

12.5 Assignment. Neither Party may assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, however, that no consent shall be required for assignment by either Party: (a) to an Affiliate or other entity under common control of the assigning Party; or (b) in connection with a direct or indirect purchase, merger, reorganization, consolidation, or sale of all or a portion of the assigning Party’s assets, but, in each case of (a) and (b), subject to the assigning Party’s prompt notice of such assignment to the other Party. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective successors and assigns.

12.6 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is solely on behalf of and for the benefit of the undersigned Parties. Unless otherwise expressly stated in an applicable Schedule, there are no intended third-party beneficiaries to this Agreement or any Schedule.

12.7 Relationship. The Parties agree that they are independent contractors, and that no joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between the Parties as a result of this Agreement.

12.8 Force Majeure. If performance of any obligation hereunder is directly prevented or interfered with by an act or condition outside the reasonable control of a Party (a “Force Majeure Event”), such as fire, strike or labor disputes of a third-party, war or violence, and/or court order or requirement of a government agency, the Party suffering such Force Majeure Event, upon giving prompt written notice to the other Party, shall be excused from such performance during such occurrence to the extent performance is not possible.

Exhibit A: Information Security

This Exhibit describes the information security measures that LiveRamp uses in providing Services under this Agreement.

1. General. LiveRamp will use industry-standard security measures designed to protect against unauthorized access, loss and misuse of hashed or encrypted IDs, including: (a) encryption of stored information behind a secured server network; and (b) organizational, contractual, technological, and managerial safeguards as more thoroughly described herein. LiveRamp security measures may be subject to change at LiveRamp’s sole discretion, however any such changes will not diminish or reduce the requirements provided herein. All capitalized terms that are not expressly defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Agreement.
   Shared Processing Environment. LiveRamp may perform the Services from a facility that is owned by a third-party (a portion of which is available for use by LiveRamp or its Affiliates), through a cloud platform provider, or a similar environment that is managed by LiveRamp Personnel. Any such facility, location, or environment will meet, in all material respects, the applicable requirements established herein.
   Safeguards. LiveRamp will maintain reasonable administrative, technical and physical controls designed to ensure the security and confidentiality of Company Data (“Safeguards”), and that comply with this Exhibit, applicable industry standards, and Laws:
