INCORPORATION OF MASTER TERMS AND FORMATION OF CONTRACTS
Sailthru, Inc. and its affiliates worldwide (“Sailthru”) will provide services to You (“Customer”) on the standard terms and conditions set out herein (“Terms”), supplemented by the terms and conditions set out in any Order Form agreed between the parties, and, if You and an authorized representative of Sailthru have mutually executed an additional agreement (a “Contract”), then also subject to the terms of such separate Contract in addition to the terms hereof and in any Order Form. Capitalized terms shall have the meanings set forth in Section 11 or as otherwise defined herein.
Upon execution of an Order Form and/or other Contract by the parties, that Order Form and/or Contract, and these Terms together will form a binding agreement between Sailthru and the Customer (this “Agreement”). However, even if there is no signed Order Form and/or Contract, these Terms will still apply to any services which the parties mutually agree are to be provided by Sailthru. This Agreement shall also be subject to any applicable posted Terms of Service or Privacy Policy of Sailthru.
In the event of inconsistency between the Terms and the relevant Order Form, the Terms will prevail over the Order Form, except to the extent (if any) that the Order Form specifically identifies the inconsistency and records that the Order Form is to prevail. To the limited extent of any direct contradiction between this Agreement and any other Contract, the terms of such other Contract shall prevail.
SUPPLY OF SERVICES
The Customer may from time to time request modifications to the Services or the Product(s). Sailthru will consider such requests but is not obliged to accept any such request. Sailthru is not required to implement or comply with any requested modification unless and until the modification and any consequential amendments to the Order Form are agreed in writing by the parties.
If Sailthru requests the Customer to provide information or to make a decision in connection with this Agreement, the Customer must, in light of the complexity of the request, do so on a timely basis and use its best efforts to ensure the information or decision is accurate.
From time to time, Customer may request that its advertising agency or Client be allowed to access and use the Services on Customer’s behalf. If Sailthru grants that request, Customer will be given log-in credentials for its agency or Client. Customer shall be responsible for all acts, omissions and breaches of contract of and by its agency or end customer under this Agreement.
Sailthru may include third party software or services into the Services from time to time (“Third Party Services”). For example, Sailthru may include third party software such as data analytics packages within the Services, acting as agent for Customer, for the benefit of Customer. Customer authorizes Sailthru to integrate Third Party Services into the Services on its behalf where applicable. Customer is responsible for securing all rights to use such Third Party Services, and complying with any separate terms and conditions applicable to such Third Party Services. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Sailthru is not responsible for any aspect of any Third Party Services.
FEES AND PAYMENT
In consideration for the provision of the Services, the Customer must pay Sailthru the Fees, into an account to be advised by Sailthru, pursuant to the terms of the Order Form and/or Contract, as applicable.
Unless specified otherwise in the Order Form to which the Fees relate:
Sailthru will invoice the Customer for the Fees at the beginning of each calendar month, or upon the earlier expiry or termination of these Terms or the relevant Contract; and
All invoices must be paid within thirty (30) days after the date of invoice.
Where any invoice is overdue by more than ten (10) days then, without limiting its other remedies under these Terms or the Contract to which that invoice relates:
Sailthru can suspend the provision of any Services under this Agreement until the overdue payment is made (and any target completion dates in the Agreement will be adjusted accordingly to allow for the period of suspension); and
Any amount due to Sailthru will bear interest, to accrue from day to day at a rate of 1.5% per month, or the highest amount allowed by applicable law, whichever is lower, from (and including) the date such amount was first due until it is paid in full (before and after judgment).
If the Customer reasonably and in good faith disputes an invoice (or part of an invoice) issued by Sailthru then the Customer must, prior to that invoice be coming due and payable, notify Sailthru in writing of the existence of and reasons for that dispute. Upon giving such notice, the Customer may withhold payment of such disputed amount until the dispute is resolved, but must not delay or withhold payment of any part of the invoice that is not disputed; provided that the Customer must at all times continue to use reasonable and good faith efforts to resolve the dispute in order to continue to avail itself of this mechanism. Except as provided under this clause 3.4, the Customer may not withhold any amount owing pursuant to an invoice issued in accordance with this clause 3, including by way of set-off.
Where any amount disputed under clause 3.4 is subsequently agreed or reasonably determined to be payable to Sailthru in accordance with that clause, that amount will bear interest, as per clause 3.3(b), to be calculated from the date at which that amount would, but for the dispute, have become due and payable.
Where any part of the Terms or a Contract refers to Sailthru being entitled to charge the Customer on a ‘time and materials basis’ for performing particular activities, Sailthru may, with prior notice to the Customer, charge the Client for all reasonable time spent by Sailthru’s personnel in performing those activities, at Sailthru’s hourly rates specified in the Order Form for that Contract (or, in the absence of an Order Form, at Sailthru’s standard rates for the particular Services) and all reasonable out of pocket expenses directly related to the Customer (including travel and accommodation costs) that are incurred by Sailthru in performing those Services.
The Fees are exclusive of all Taxes. The Customer will be responsible for all Taxes payable in respect of the supply of the Services and must pay all such Taxes on demand.
DELIVERY
Sailthru will use commercially reasonable efforts to meet any timeframes agreed in an Order Form, subject to clause 4.2. In the absence of a timeframe being stated in an Order Form the Services must be performed within a reasonable time.
Sailthru is not responsible for any delay in performing or failure to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement to the extent that failure is due to an event or circumstance beyond its reasonable control, including:
any failure by the Customer to perform its obligations under this Agreement;
any Force Majeure Event.
If such an event or circumstance occurs, the time for performance of the affected Services or other obligations will be extended by a period equal to the time lost due to the occurrence of the relevant event or circumstance, and Sailthru may recover from the Customer any additional costs reasonably incurred by Sailthru as a result. Where a Force Majeure Event affecting Sailthru and delaying delivery of required Services, persists for more than fifteen (15) business days, either party may terminate any Contract affected by the event or circumstance immediately by written notice to the other party. In the event of any such termination, Customer shall remain responsible for payment in full for all Services delivered prior to the date of such termination.
TERM AND TERMINATION
The term length of this Agreement shall be as set forth in the Order Form or Contract. If no term length is stated in the Order Form or Contract, then the term shall be one year from the effective date. Unless otherwise stated in any Order Form or Contract, this Agreement shall automatically renew for successive one year periods, unless either party opts out in writing at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the then current term or renewal year. Sailthru may only update pricing at a renewal, by delivering notice of the new pricing at least sixty (60) days prior to such renewal year. Either party may terminate this agreement for the material breach by the other party, if such breach is left uncured after thirty (30) days’ written notice and opportunity to cure.
Either party may terminate these Terms or any Order Form or Contract immediately by written notice to the other party if the other party:
is in material breach of any of its obligations under these Terms or the relevant Order Form or Contract and either that breach is incapable of remedy, or that other party has failed to remedy that breach within thirty (30) days after receiving written notice requiring it to do so; or
is unable to pay its debts, or becomes insolvent, or is subject to an order or a resolution for its liquidation, administration, winding-up or dissolution (otherwise than for the purposes of a solvent amalgamation or reconstruction), or has an administrative or other receiver, manager, trustee, liquidator, administrator or similar officer appointed over all or any substantial part of its assets, or enters into or proposes any composition or arrangement with its creditors generally, or is subject to any analogous event or proceeding in any applicable jurisdiction.
The termination of these Terms does not affect any other existing Contracts, and the termination of any Contract does not affect these Terms or any other Contract; provided, however, if Customer is in breach of any Order Form or Contract, Sailthru may elect to terminate only the affected Contracts and Order Forms, or all Contracts and Order Forms with such Customer, in Sailthru’s discretion.
If any Contract or Order Form is terminated under clause 5.2, the Customer is not relieved of its obligation to pay any Fees as follows:
in the event of termination by Customer under clause 5.2, Customer is not relieved of its obligation to pay for any Services performed prior to the date of such termination, but shall not be required to pay for any further Services that would have been provided after the termination date; or
in the event of termination by Sailthru under clause 5.2, Customer is not relieved of any obligation to pay any fees that would have been due and owing for the life the expected term, and shall be responsible for the full amount that would have otherwise been due and payable under the Contracts and Order Forms for all Services delivered or to have been delivered.

Customer agrees to use the Carnival.io Services, and to authorize Customer Users to use the Carnival.io Services solely within the scope of any such License. On or as soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Date, Sailthru shall provide to Customer the necessary passwords, security protocols, policies and network links or connections (the “Access Protocols”) to allow Customer to access and use the Carnival.io Services.

Customer shall comply with all applicable laws and requirements, including without limitation all laws and requirements regarding privacy, the collection, use, disclosure, retention and transfer of personal data and other data, usage tracking, etc.
Nothing in this Agreement transfers to either party any Pre-Existing IP of the other party. Customer shall continue to own all data and content it owned prior to this Agreement or that it creates independent of this Agreement, even if it inputs such content or data into the Software or Services (“Customer Data”). Customer is responsible for all Customer Data, including for ensuring its accuracy and that Customer and Client have all necessary rights and consents to use the Customer Data and the data of Client’s end users (“Client Data”) for the purposes described in the Agreement.

Despite anything else in these Terms, the Customer acknowledges that Sailthru owns the Software and nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of the Software to the Customer or any other person. Sailthru does not grant any license to the Customer or any other person to use the Software, unless such a license is expressly granted in the relevant Order Form.
Nothing contained in these Terms shall preclude Sailthru from rendering services to others or developing work products that are competitive with, functionally comparable to, and not unlike the Services and Products under an Order Form with Customer. Sailthru shall not be restricted in its use of ideas, concepts, know-how, and techniques acquired or learned in the course of performing the Services and developing the Products, including functionality included in Products; provided that Sailthru shall not use or disclose any of the Customer’s Confidential Information or use any logos, trademarks, or servicemarks of the Customer or any Affiliate of the Customer.
CONFIDENTIALITY AND ANNOUNCEMENTS
Each party undertakes that it shall not at any time disclose to any person any information disclosed to it by the other party concerning the business or affairs of the other party, including but not limited to information relating to a party’s operations, processes, plans, product information, know-how, designs, trade secrets, software, market opportunities and customers (“Confidential Information”), except as permitted by clause 7.2 or 7.3, unless such information is public knowledge or already known to such party at the time of disclosure, or subsequently becomes public knowledge other than by breach of this Agreement, or subsequently comes lawfully into the possession of such party from a third party.
Each party may disclose the other party’s Confidential Information:
to its employees, officers, agents, consultants or subcontractors (“Representatives”) who need to know such information for the purposes of carrying out the party’s obligations under this Agreement, provided that the disclosing party takes all reasonable steps to ensure that its Representatives comply with the confidentiality obligations contained in this clause 7 as though they were a party to this Agreement, and the disclosing party shall be responsible for its Representatives’ compliance with the confidentiality obligations set out in this clause;
as may be required by law, court order or any governmental or regulatory authority; or
to the extent this cannot be avoided in the course of lawful enjoyment of the disclosing party’s (licensed or owned) IP Rights referred to in clause 6.
Unless specified otherwise in the Order Form:
Sailthru may disclose in its marketing materials (including websites) that it has performed the Services and developed the Products for the Customer, and give basic details of the Services and Products including reasonable screenshots, including incidental use of the Customer’s trademarks or other IP rights which may be incorporated into the materials, for this limited purpose; and
If the Customer has contracted for the benefit of one of the Customer’s own clients, the Customer must procure the consent of such client as set forth in Section 7.3(a) to also allow such references to such client, and incidental use of the client’s trademarks or other IP rights which may be incorporated into the materials, in the manner set out in clause 7.3(a).
The Customer agrees to give Sailthru appropriate credit for its role in the integration of its Software into any Customer or Client product, such as with “ingredient” branding or “powered by” branding, and must be explicitly credited if the product receives any award related thereto.

Sailthru’s sole liability and Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy for any breach of the limited warranty set forth above shall be, in Sailthru’s sole discretion, to (x) use commercially reasonable efforts to repair or replace the infringing Software or Service so it is no longer infringing, or (y) terminate the applicable Services and refund any pro rata unused amounts.
LIABILITY

any indirect or consequential loss or damage, any loss of profit, loss of revenue, loss of business opportunities, loss of data or loss of goodwill arising out of or in connection with this Agreement (whether or not the loss or damage may reasonably be supposed to have been in the contemplation of the parties as at the date this Agreement was formed as a probable result of any act or omission); or
any loss or damage in respect of any Liability unless a claim in respect of that Liability is made in writing and in reasonable detail by the Customer within six (6) months after the circumstances giving rise to the Liability first became known to the Customer.
