Vidyard will have no liability to Customer or to any third party for any suspension of the Services pursuant to this Section 2.9 or any consequences arising from such suspension.
3.1. FEES. You agree to pay all fees specified in each Sales Order (“Fees”) in accordance with the payment terms stated in the applicable Sales Order.

4.1. APPLICABILITY. This Section 4 applies solely where Customer subscribes to the Services through a Reseller. In such case, the provisions of this Section 4 will modify this Agreement only to the extent expressly set forth herein. If Customer subscribes to the Services directly with Vidyard, this Section 4 will not apply and will have no force or effect.
4.2. RESELLER SALES ORDER. The sales order, or other similar ordering document, issued by a Reseller and entered into between Customer and such Reseller (the “Reseller Sales Order”) will govern the commercial terms applicable to Customer’s subscription to the Services, including fees, payment terms, subscription term, any renewal provisions, and any contractual terms solely between Customer and Reseller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Customer’s access to and use of, and Vidyard’s provision of, the Services remains governed solely by this Agreement. Except as modified by this Section 4, Customer remains subject to all terms and conditions of this Agreement, including all restrictions, obligations, and warranties. Vidyard will have no responsibility or liability arising from any acts or omissions of Reseller, including Reseller’s billing practices, payment collection, representations, or performance (or failure to perform) under any Reseller Sales Order.
4.3. PAYMENT OF FEES. Customer will pay all fees for the Services to the applicable Reseller in accordance with a Reseller Sales Order.

Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement or required by Applicable Laws, ALL FEES PAID TO RESELLER FOR THE SERVICES ARE NON-CANCELLABLE AND NON-REFUNDABLE and are based on subscriptions purchased and not actual usage. FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, CUSTOMER IS NOT ENTITLED TO ANY REFUND OR CREDIT FOR CANCELLED SUBSCRIPTIONS OR UNUSED SERVICES.
4.4. DATA SHARING WITH RESELLER. In addition to the rights set forth in Section 7 (Usage Data), Vidyard may share Usage Data and other information regarding Customer with the applicable Reseller in connection with Customer’s subscription to the Services.
4.5. INTERPRETATION OF THIS AGREEMENT. Certain Sections and defined terms of this Agreement will be interpreted as follows:

(b) References to “Sales Order” in the applicable parts of this Agreement will mean the applicable Reseller Sales Order.
(c) Any references to the duration of a subscription to the Services will be as set forth in an applicable Reseller Sales Order. For clarity, any renewal of Customer's subscription to the Services through a Reseller will be governed by the terms set forth in the applicable Reseller Sales Order, and Section 15.2 (Automatic Renewal) will not apply except to the extent expressly incorporated into or referenced by the Reseller Sales Order.

11.2. EXCLUSIONS.

If options (a) or (b) are not commercially reasonable, Vidyard may instead terminate Customer’s access to the affected Services and refund any prepaid Fees covering the unused portion of the applicable Subscription Term for such affected Services as of the effective date of termination.
11.4. EXCLUSIVE REMEDY. Sections 11.1 through 11.3 (inclusive) state Vidyard’s sole and exclusive liability, and Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy, for any claim of infringement or misappropriation of third-party intellectual property rights arising out of or relating to the Services.

12.1. EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NEITHER THE CUSTOMER NOR VIDYARD WILL BE LIABLE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR (a) INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES; AND (b) LOSS OF USE, DATA, BUSINESS, REVENUE OR PROFITS, EVEN IF THE PARTY KNEW OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWN THAT SUCH DAMAGES WERE FORESEEABLE.

14.1. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. During the course of this Agreement, each Party (the "Disclosing Party") may disclose to the other Party (the "Receiving Party") information that is identified as, or should reasonably be understood to be, proprietary or confidential ("Confidential Information"). Confidential Information includes: (a) this Agreement and any Sales Orders; (b) the Services, Software, and Documentation (in the case of Vidyard as the Disclosing Party); (c) business plans, product plans and roadmaps, strategies, forecasts, and analyses; (d) financial information and fee structures; (e) business processes, methods and models; and (f) technical information and documentation.

14.2. CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS. The Receiving Party will: (i) protect Confidential Information using the same degree of care it uses to protect its own confidential information, but in no event less than reasonable care; (ii) except as otherwise required in the course of providing the Services to Customer, not disclose Confidential Information to any third party except to its or its Affiliates’ employees, contractors, and advisors who have a legitimate need to know and are bound by confidentiality obligations at least as protective as those in this Agreement, or as necessary to perform its obligations under this Agreement; and (iii) not use Confidential Information except as necessary to exercise its rights or perform its obligations under this Agreement.

14.5. RETURN OR DESTRUCTION.

Except as otherwise stated in an applicable Sales Order, each Sales Order will automatically renew for successive twelve (12) month periods (each, a “Renewal Term”) upon expiration of each Subscription Term, subject to any price increases as set forth in Section 3.3, unless either Party provides written notice of non-renewal at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Subscription Term for that Sales Order.

Either Party may terminate this Agreement: (a) if the other Party materially breaches this Agreement and, if such breach is capable of being cured, fails to cure the breach within thirty (30) days after receiving written notice thereof; or (b) immediately upon written notice if the other Party becomes insolvent, makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or becomes subject to any proceedings relating to liquidation, receivership, or bankruptcy. Except as set forth in Section 15.4 below, termination of this Agreement does not entitle Customer to any refund of Fees paid, and Customer remains responsible for all Fees due under any active Sales Orders through the end of each applicable Subscription Term.
15.4. EFFECT OF TERMINATION. Upon expiration or termination of any Sales Order (or termination of this Agreement, which will automatically terminate all active Sales Orders), Customer’s (and all Users’) right to access and use the Services will immediately cease. If Customer terminates this Agreement due to a material breach by Vidyard, Vidyard will refund a pro-rated portion of any prepaid Fees for the unused remainder of the applicable Subscription Term under the terminated Sales Order within sixty (60) days after the effective date of termination. If Vidyard terminates this Agreement (or any Sales Order) due to a material breach by Customer (or any User), all unpaid Fees for the remainder of the Subscription Term will become immediately due and payable.
15.5. RETURN OF CUSTOMER MATERIALS. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement (or an applicable Sales Order, if earlier), Customer will be entitled to extract Customer Content and Viewer Data stored in the Services through a mechanism made available by Vidyard for a period of thirty (30) days following such expiration or termination (the “Extraction Grace Period”). Following the Extraction Grace Period, Vidyard will delete all Customer Content and Viewer Data and cancel Customer’s Account within sixty (60) days.
