2.1. Generally. The Agreement governs the testing, demonstration, trial and other evaluative (but not developmental or productive) use of the Juro Platform on a software-as-a-service basis (Evaluation Services) for the sole purpose of the Customer’s own internal evaluation of the Evaluation Services in a non-productive capacity and not for any commercial or other business or operational purposes (the Evaluation Purpose). Juro will charge the Customer $1 for use of the Evaluation Services in accordance with the Agreement, and hereby acknowledges receipt of that payment. Both parties acknowledge the sufficiency of the payment for consideration purposes.

2.2. Limited licence. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, Juro grants the Customer a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-assignable, non-sub licensable, revocable, limited and personal right to use the Evaluation Services solely for the Evaluation Purpose for the Evaluation Period.

2.3. Customer responsibilities. The Customer must: (a) provide Juro with any reasonable access, information, and other cooperation that Juro reasonably requires to provide the Evaluation Services (for example, security access information and configuration information); (b) comply with applicable laws in connection with the Agreement; (c) obtain and maintain all licences, consents and permissions necessary for the Customer to access the Evaluation Services; and (d) use reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorised access to, or use of, the Evaluation Services. If the Customer becomes aware of any unauthorised access or use, the Customer must notify Juro promptly. If the Customer fails to provide any necessary cooperation or otherwise prevents or delays Juro from performing its obligations under the Agreement, Juro is not in breach of the Agreement and is not liable to the Customer for the delay or failure to perform the affected obligations.

2.4. Restrictions. The Customer must not, and must ensure that its users do not, directly or indirectly: (a) use the Evaluation Services (or any part) for any purpose other than the Evaluation Purpose; or (b) except as permitted by applicable law which cannot be excluded: (i) attempt to copy, modify, duplicate, create derivative works from, frame, mirror, republish, download, display, transmit, or distribute all or part of the Juro Platform; (ii) attempt to de-compile, reverse compile, disassemble, reverse engineer or otherwise reduce to human readable form all or any part of the Juro Platform; (iii) access all or any part of the Evaluation Services to build a product or service that competes with Juro’s business; (iv) commercially exploit the Evaluation Services or make them available to anyone except the Customer’s authorised users; (v) attempt to obtain, or help anyone else obtain, access to the Evaluation Services other than as provided for in the Agreement; or (vi) allow individuals to share login credentials (for example, by using a generic email address that more than one person uses to access the Juro Platform); (vii) store payment card information in the Juro Platform; (viii) use the Evaluation Services in any illegal way or any way that causes damage or injury to any person or property; (ix) use the Evaluation Services to access, store, distribute or use any malware or any material that is unlawful, harmful, threatening, defamatory, obscene, infringing, harassing or racially or ethnically offensive, facilitates illegal activity, depicts sexually explicit images, promotes unlawful violence, or is discriminatory based on race, gender, colour, religious belief, sexual orientation or disability; or (x) perform any security or penetration testing, or benchmarking analysis of the Juro Platform without Juro’s prior written consent.. Juro may remove access to any material that does not comply with this paragraph.

3.2. Termination. Either party may terminate the Agreement immediately by giving notice to the other party.

3.3.Suspension. Juro may immediately suspend the Customer’s access to the Juro Platform at any time for any reason. Juro must promptly inform the Customer of the suspension.

3.4. Effect of termination. On termination of the Agreement for any reason: (a) all licences granted to the Customer under the Agreement terminate and the Customer must immediately stop using the Evaluation Services; and (b) any part of the Agreement which, by its nature, should survive termination will continue in force. Juro may immediately destroy or otherwise dispose of the Customer Data on termination or expiry of the Agreement.

4. Confidentiality

4.1. Definition. Confidential Information means any non-public information provided by Juro to Customer hereunder that is either conspicuously identified as confidential or proprietary or should be reasonably understood to be confidential based on the nature of the information or the circumstances of the disclosure. Confidential Information includes information regarding Juro’s technology, software, websites, pricing, customers, or other business, technical, or financial information. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Juro’s Confidential Information includes non-public information regarding the Juro Platform and the Evaluation Services. Confidential Information does not include information that: (a) is already known to Customer without obligation of confidentiality prior to its disclosure by Juro; (b) is in or enters the public domain through no wrongful act of Customer; (c) is or was lawfully received by Customer from a third party without confidentiality obligations; or (d) can be established by written documentation to have been independently developed by Customer without access to the Confidential Information.

4.2. Protection. Customer will only use Confidential Information to perform its obligations or exercise its rights under the Agreement. Customer will not disclose Confidential Information to any individuals or entities except for its and its Affiliates’ officers, employees, agents and representatives who have a need to know such Confidential Information and who are bound by confidentiality obligations at least as protective as those set forth herein. Customer will maintain the Confidential Information in confidence using the same degree of care as it uses to protect its own similar information (but no less than reasonable care) and will be liable for any unauthorized use or disclosure of the Confidential Information disclosed during the Evaluation Period for the greater of five years, or so long as such Confidential Information is protected as a trade secret under applicable law.

4.3. Compelled disclosure. If Customer is required by a binding order of a government agency or court of competent jurisdiction to disclose any Confidential Information of Juro, Customer will, if legally permitted, provide Juro with prompt written notice sufficient to allow Juro an opportunity to appear and object to such disclosure. If such objection is unsuccessful, then Customer may produce only such Confidential Information as is required by the court order or governmental action.

4.4. Return or destruction. At Juro’s request upon termination of the Agreement, Customer will promptly return or destroy all Confidential Information (including any copies thereof) in its possession or control, except that Customer may retain: (a) any copies required to be retained under applicable law and (b) copies in backup or archive media created in the ordinary course of business; provided in each case that the obligations of confidentiality hereunder will continue to apply to such retained copies.

4.5. Remedies. Customer agrees that Juro may have no adequate remedy at law if there is a breach or threatened breach of this Section 4 and, accordingly, that Juro will be entitled to seek injunctive or other equitable relief to prevent or remedy such a breach in addition to any legal remedies available to Juro.
