  • 1.6 As a particular condition of Use to the Subscription Services, the Client shall not and shall not attempt to (and shall procure that no Authorised User shall and shall not attempt to):
    (a) except to the extent expressly permitted by this agreement or any applicable law which is incapable of exclusion by agreement between the parties (i) copy, modify, duplicate, create derivative works from, frame, mirror, republish, download, display, transmit, or distribute all or any portion of the Platform (including all or any portion of the software that operates the Platform) and/or the Insights in any form or media or by any means; or (ii) attempt to reverse compile, disassemble, reverse engineer or otherwise reduce to human-perceivable form all or any part of the software that operates the Platform, including its associated configurations, file formats and data structures; or

    (a) planned maintenance which the Agency may carry out outside of Normal Business Hours; and

  • 1.9 The Agency:
    (a) does not warrant that the Client's use of the Subscription Service will be uninterrupted or error-free; or that the Subscription Service and/or Insights will meet the Client's requirements; and
    (b) is not responsible for any delays, delivery failures, or any other loss or damage resulting from the transfer of data over communications networks and facilities outside of its reasonable ability to control, including the Internet, and the Client acknowledges that the Subscription Service may be subject to limitations, delays and other problems inherent in the use of such communications facilities.
  • 1.10 The Client acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any documentation, it is inherent to the nature of the Subscription Services that the particular range of Insights available to the Client during the Licence Term may vary from time to time as the Subscription Services evolve and different data sources become or cease to be available.  The availability or not of a particular range of Insights will not be a breach of this agreement by the Agency.
  • 1.11 The Client acknowledges that the Platform and/or the Insights may enable it to access the website content of, correspond with, and purchase products and services from, third parties via third-party websites and that it does so solely at its own risk.

  • 1.12 The Agency will treat any Client Data as the Confidential Information of the Client, and will not use or exploit it for its own commercial purposes.  However, the Client acknowledges and agrees that the Subscription Service is not a zero-knowledge service, that the Agency’s security measures may not be impregnable, and that the Subscription Service is not designed to be used as a repository of highly confidential materials.  The Client therefore agrees that it will not upload to the Subscription Service any Client Data which would be likely cause significant harm to the business of the Client, its Affiliates or its or their respective Clients or suppliers if it were to be disclosed, and acknowledges that the Agency limits its liability in respect of disclosures of Client Data accordingly, in the manner set out in clause 12 of the Agreement.
  • 1.13 While the Agency may, in the course of its own internal processes, incidentally take backups of the Client Data, the Client acknowledges and agrees that the Subscription Service is not a backup or disaster recovery service, and is not designed to hold the only copy of any Client Data, and that the Agency therefore excludes any liability for loss of or damage to Client Data.
  • 1.14 The Client acknowledges and agrees that, as between the Agency and the Client, the Agency and/or its licensors own all intellectual property rights in the Platform and the Insights.  Except as expressly stated herein, this agreement does not grant the Client any rights to, or in, patents, copyright, database right, trade secrets, trade names, trade marks (whether registered or unregistered), or any other rights or licences in respect of the Services or the Insights.

  • 1.17 Subject to clause 1.18 of this Schedule, the Agency hereby defends the Client against any claim that the Platform or the Insights infringes any copyright, trade mark, database right or right of confidentiality in the United Kingdom (each, a “Third Party IP Claim”), and indemnifies the Client for any amounts awarded against the Client in judgment or settlement of such Third Party IP Claims. 
  • 1.18 In no event shall the Agency, its employees, agents and sub-contractors be liable to the Client to the extent that the Third Party IP Claim is based on:
    (a) a modification of the Services or Insights by anyone other than the Agency; or
    (b) the Client's use of the Services or Insights in a manner contrary to the instructions given to the Client by the Agency; or
    (c) combination of the Services with some other product or service, if the alleged infringement would have been avoided by not so doing; or
    (d) the Client's use of the Services or Insights after notice of the alleged or actual infringement from Agency or any appropriate authority.
  • 1.19 In the event of a Third Party IP Claim, the Agency will use reasonable efforts to: (i) obtain for the Client a right to continue to use the Platform and the Insights; (ii) modify the Platform and/or the Insights so as to avoid the alleged infringement; or (iii) if it is not reasonably practicable to do either of those things, terminate this Agreement and give the Client a pro rata refund of any Fees paid in advance for any period of the Initial Licence Term or Renewal Period (as the case may be) following such termination.  The indemnity set out in clause 1.17 and this clause 1.19 set out the Client’s sole and exclusive remedy in respect of any Third Party IP Claim.
