You are responsible for compliance with this Agreement and the Terms of Service by all Authorized Users, including what Authorized Users do with your data, and for all fees incurred by Authorized Users (or from adding Authorized Users).

All such data and information will be collected and used by Infinitive in accordance with Infinitive’s Privacy Policy, which you acknowledge. You may disable data collection by the Software through the settings in the Software.

6. Ownership and Feedback

The Software is made available on a limited license or access basis, and no ownership right is conveyed to you, irrespective of the use of terms such as “purchase” or “sale”. Infinitive and its licensors have and retain all right, title and interest, including all intellectual property rights, in and to Infinitive (including the Software). From time to time, you may choose to submit Feedback to us. This feature is available inside the WinBidPro v16 software in the Help menu. Infinitive may in connection with any of its products or services freely use, copy, disclose, license, distribute and exploit any Feedback in any manner without any obligation, royalty or restriction based on intellectual property rights or otherwise. No Feedback will be considered your Confidential Information, and nothing in this Agreement limits Infinitive’s right to independently use, develop, evaluate, or market products or services, whether incorporating Feedback or otherwise.

7. Confidentiality

Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, each party agrees that all code, inventions, know-how and business, technical and financial information disclosed to such party (“Receiving Party”) by the disclosing party (“Disclosing Party”) constitute the confidential property of the Disclosing Party (“Confidential Information”), provided that it is identified as confidential at the time of disclosure or should be reasonably known by the Receiving Party to be confidential or proprietary due to the nature of the information disclosed and the circumstances surrounding the disclosure. Any Infinitive information and any performance information relating to the Software will be deemed Confidential Information of Infinitive without any marking or further designation. Except as expressly authorized herein, the Receiving Party will (1) hold in confidence and not disclose any Confidential Information to third parties and (2) not use Confidential Information for any purpose other than fulfilling its obligations and exercising its rights under this Agreement. The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information to its employees, agents, contractors and other representatives having a legitimate need to know, provided that they are bound to confidentiality obligations no less protective of the Disclosing Party than this Section and that the Receiving Party remains responsible for compliance by them with the terms of this Section. The Receiving Party's confidentiality obligations will not apply to information which the Receiving Party can document: (i) was rightfully in its possession or known to it prior to receipt of the Confidential Information; (ii) is or has become public knowledge through no fault of the Receiving Party; (iii) is rightfully obtained by the Receiving Party from a third party without breach of any confidentiality obligation; or (iv) is independently developed by employees of the Receiving Party who had no access to such information. The Receiving Party may also disclose Confidential Information if so required pursuant to a regulation, law or court order (but only to the minimum extent required to comply with such regulation or order and with advance notice to the Disclosing Party). The Receiving Party acknowledges that disclosure of Confidential Information would cause substantial harm for which damages alone would not be a sufficient remedy, and therefore that upon any such disclosure by the Receiving Party the Disclosing Party will be entitled to appropriate equitable relief in addition to whatever other remedies it might have at law.

8. Term and Termination

8.1. Term. This Agreement is effective as of the Effective Date and continues until expiration of all License Terms, unless earlier terminated as set forth herein.

8.2. Termination for Cause. Either party may terminate this Agreement (including all related Orders) if the other party (a) fails to cure any material breach of this Agreement within thirty (30) days after written notice; (b) ceases operation without a successor; or (c) seeks protection under any bankruptcy, receivership, trust deed, creditors’ arrangement, composition or comparable proceeding, or if any such proceeding is instituted against that party (and not dismissed within sixty (60) days thereafter).

8.3. Termination for Convenience. You may choose to stop using the Software and terminate this Agreement (including all Orders) at any time for any reason upon written notice to Infinitive, but, unless you are exercising your right to terminate early pursuant to Section 7.3 (Return Policy), upon any such termination (i) you will not be entitled to a refund of any pre-paid fees and (ii) if you have not already paid all applicable fees for the then-current License Term or related services period (as applicable), any such fees that are outstanding will become immediately due and payable.

8.4. Effects of Termination. Upon any expiration or termination of this Agreement, your license to the Software terminates (even if the License Term is identified as “perpetual” or if no expiration date is specified in your Order) and you must cease using and delete (or at our request, return) all Software and Confidential Information or other materials of Infinitive in your possession, including on any third-party systems operated on your behalf. You will certify such deletion upon our request. If this Agreement is terminated by you in accordance with Section 8.2 (Termination for Cause), Infinitive may offer you a prorated refund of any prepaid Software fees covering the remainder of the then-current License Term after the effective date of termination. If this Agreement is terminated by Infinitive in accordance with Section 8.2 (Termination for Cause), you will pay any unpaid fees covering the remainder of the then-current License Term after the effective date of termination. In no event will termination relieve you of its obligation to pay any fees payable to Infinitive for the period prior to the effective date of termination. Except where an exclusive remedy may be specified in this Agreement, the exercise by either party of any remedy, including termination, will be without prejudice to any other remedies it may have under this Agreement, by law, or otherwise.

9. Warranties and Disclaimer

9.1. General Warranties. Each party represents and warrants that it has the legal power and authority to enter into this Agreement. If you are an entity, you represent and warrant that this Agreement and each Order is entered into by an employee or agent of such entity with all necessary authority to bind such entity to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

9.2. Virus Warranty. Infinitive further represents and warrants that it will take reasonable commercial efforts to ensure that the Software, in the form and when provided to you, will be free of any viruses, malware, or other harmful code. For any breach of the foregoing warranty, your sole and exclusive remedy, and Infinitive’s sole obligation, is to provide a replacement copy of the Software promptly upon notice.

9.3. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THE ABOVE SECTION 9.1 (GENERAL WARRANTIES) AND 9.2 (VIRUS WARRANTY), NO WARRANTY ON LICENSED SOFTWARE, SUPPORT OR DOCUMENTATION. Infinitive licenses the Licensed Software and Documentation solely on an "AS IS" basis without warranties of any kind, such as warranties of merchantability or fitness for any particular purpose. The entire risk of quality and performance is with Licensee. The Software and Documentation are not represented to be error-free. If either the Licensed Software, Documentation or both prove to be defective, Licensee assumes the entire cost of all servicing, correction or repair.

9.4. The foregoing warranty gives Licensee specific legal rights, and Licensee may also have other rights which vary from state to state. Some states do not allow the limitation or exclusion of implied warranties, so the above limitations may not apply to Licensee.

10. U.S. Government Restricted Rights Legend

Use, duplication or disclosure by the Government is subject to restrictions as set forth in subparagraph (c)(1)(ii) of the Rights in Technical Data and Computer Licensed Software clause at DFARS 252.227-7013.
