Please see Section 12 for definitions of certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement.

We will provide you at least 3 months’ prior notice before discontinuing a material functionality of a Service that we make generally available to customers and that you are using. ASGARD will not be obligated to provide such notice under this Section 1.5 if the discontinuation is necessary to (a) address an emergency, or risk of harm to the Services or ASGARD, (b) respond to claims, litigation, or loss of license rights related to third party intellectual property rights, or (c) comply with law, but should any of the preceding occur ASGARD will provide you with as much prior notice as is reasonably practicable under the circumstances.
- Notice of Changes to the Service Level Agreements. We may change, discontinue or add Service Level Agreements, provided, however, that we will provide at least 90 days’ advance notice for adverse changes to any Service Level Agreement.
- Your Responsibilities
- Your Accounts. You will comply with the terms of this Agreement and all laws, rules and regulations applicable to your use of the Services. To access the Services, you must have an ASGARD account associated with a valid email address. Unless explicitly permitted by the Service Terms, you will only create one account per email address. Except to the extent caused by our breach of this Agreement, (a) you are responsible for all activities that occur under your account, regardless of whether the activities are authorized by you or undertaken by you, your employees or a third party (including your contractors, agents or End Users), and (b) we and our affiliates are not responsible for unauthorized access to your account.
- Your Content. You are responsible for Your Content. You will ensure that Your Content and your and End Users’ use of Your Content or the Services will not violate any of the Policies or any applicable law.
- Your Security and Backup. You are responsible for properly configuring and using the Services and otherwise taking appropriate action to secure, protect and backup your accounts and Your Content in a manner that will provide appropriate security and protection, which might include use of encryption to protect Your Content from unauthorized access and routinely archiving Your Content.
- Log-In Credentials and Account Keys. ASGARD log-in credentials and private keys generated by the Services are for your internal use only and you will not sell, transfer or sublicense them to any other entity or person, except that you may disclose your private key to your agents and subcontractors performing work on your behalf.
- End Users. You will be deemed to have taken any action that you permit, assist or facilitate any person or entity to take related to this Agreement, Your Content or use of the Services. You are responsible for End Users’ use of Your Content and the Services, and for their compliance with your obligations under this Agreement. If you become aware of any violation of your obligations under this Agreement caused by an End User, you will immediately suspend access to Your Content and the Services by such End User. We do not provide any support or services to End Users unless we have a separate agreement with you or an End User obligating us to provide such support or services.
- Fees and Payment.
- Service Fees. We calculate and bill fees and charges on various time scales depending on the service contracted. We may bill you more frequently for fees accrued if we reasonably suspect that your account is fraudulent or at risk of non-payment. You will pay us the applicable fees and charges for use of the Services as described on the ASGARD Site using one of the payment methods we support. All amounts payable by you under this Agreement will be paid to us without setoff or counterclaim, and without any deduction or withholding. Fees and charges for any new Service or new feature of a Service will be effective when we post updated fees and charges on the ASGARD Site, unless we expressly state otherwise in a notice. We may increase or add new fees and charges for any existing Services you are using by giving you at least 30 days’ prior notice. We may elect to charge you interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (or the highest rate permitted by law, if less) on all late payments. If we suspend your account under Section 4.1 or terminate your use of the Services pursuant to Section 5.2(b)(ii), we may elect not to bill you for fees and charges after suspension unless your account is reinstated.
- Taxes. (a) Each party will be responsible, as required under applicable law, for identifying and paying all taxes and other governmental fees and charges (and any penalties, interest, and other additions thereto) that are imposed on that party upon or with respect to the transactions and payments under this Agreement. All fees payable by you are exclusive of Indirect Taxes, except where applicable law requires otherwise. We may charge and you will pay applicable Indirect Taxes that we are legally obligated or authorized to collect from you (typically VAT). You will provide such information to us as reasonably required to determine whether we are obligated to collect Indirect Taxes from you. We will not collect, and you will not pay, any Indirect Tax for which you furnish us a properly completed exemption certificate or a direct payment permit certificate for which we can claim an available exemption from such Indirect Tax. All payments made by you to us under this Agreement will be made free and clear of any deduction or withholding, as required by law. If any such deduction or withholding (including cross border withholding taxes) is required on any payment, you will pay such additional amounts as are necessary so that the net amount received by us is equal to the amount then due and payable under this Agreement. We will provide you with such tax forms as are reasonably requested in order to reduce or eliminate the amount of any withholding or deduction for taxes in respect of payments made under this Agreement. (b) Income tax declaration on profits, dividends or capital gains is your soul responsibility. Wherever the user/client is located it remains his prerogative to comply with his local declaration obligations. ASGARD will not get involved in this procedure or supply any information concerning customer accounts to any third parties.
