NOTE: SOME JURISDICTIONS EITHER LIMIT THE PERMISSIBLE SCOPE OF OR DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS SUCH AS THOSE APPEARING IN THIS AGREEMENT. ACCORDINGLY, SOME OF THE LIMITATIONS AND DISCLAIMERS APPEARING HEREIN MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
You agree to defend, indemnify and hold Updatestack and the Updatestack Parties harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, costs, losses, and other liabilities, including without limitation reasonable attorney, expert witness, and other professional fees, arising from any claims, actions or demands that arise out of or relate to (or are alleged to arise out of or relate to): (a) Your use of the Updatestack Platform including Your provision of Personal Data or other materials or content to the Updatestack Platform; (b) Your violation of any provision of this Agreement or misuse of the Updatestack Platform; or (c) Your violation of any applicable law, rule, regulation, intellectual property or other third party rights in connection with Your use or misuse of the Updatestack Platform. Updatestack may in its sole discretion and at any time, even after commencement of the defense, assume control of the defense of any third party claim that is subject to indemnification by You. You agree to provide all reasonable cooperation and assistance in defense of such claims.
Updatestack shall indemnify, defend and hold You harmless from and against any claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from a claim, suit or proceeding brought against You by a third party to the extent it is based on a claim that the Updatestack Platform infringes a United States patent, copyright or trademark (each, an “Infringement Claim”). Updatestack’s obligations with respect to this section are conditioned upon: (i) You providing Updatestack prompt written notice of the Infringement Claim or threat thereof; (ii) You giving Updatestack full and exclusive authority for the conduct of the defense and settlement of the Infringement Claim and any subsequent appeal; and (iii) You giving Updatestack all information and assistance reasonably requested by Updatestack in connection with the conduct of the defense and settlement of the Infringement Claim and any subsequent appeal. If an Infringement Claim has been made, or in Updatestack’s opinion is likely to be made, Updatestack may, at its sole option and expense, either: (i) procure for You the right to continue using the Updatestack Platform; or (ii) replace or modify the Updatestack Platform so that it becomes non-infringing. If neither of the foregoing options is reasonably available, Updatestack may immediately terminate both parties’ respective rights and obligations under this Agreement with regard to the Updatestack Platform, and refund to You a pro-rata amount of any unused, prepaid fees actually paid by You for the Updatestack Platform. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Updatestack shall have no obligation to indemnify You to the extent an Infringement Claim arises from (i) the combination, operation or use of the Updatestack Platform with any other software, data, products or materials not supplied by Updatestack; (ii) the use of the Updatestack Platform in violation of the terms and conditions of this Agreement; (iii) the alteration or modification of the Updatestack Platform; (iv) Updatestack’s compliance with Your designs, specifications or instructions; or (v) Your continued use of the Updatestack Platform after Updatestack has informed You of modifications or changes to the Updatestack Platform required to avoid the Infringement Claim.
Unless otherwise agreed to between the parties, each Subscription Term will automatically renew either (a) for additional one-month periods if you choose to pay on a monthly basis; or (b) for additional twelve-month periods if you choose to pay on an annual basis, unless either party gives the other written notice of termination at least thirty (30) days prior to expiration of the then-current Subscription Term.
Updatestack reserves the right, at our sole discretion, to terminate any and all access to the Updatestack Platform provided to You at any time without notice for any reason. Updatestack also reserves the right, at our sole discretion, to discontinue any service or modify any part of the Updatestack Platform We provide without notice, at any time, and without liability. Updatestack reserves the right, at our sole discretion, to terminate services provided to You, access to any and all parts of the Updatestack Platform, and to deactivate Your Updatestack Account Login Credentials. We shall not be liable to You or any third party if We terminate Your account, and You agree to hold Us harmless and indemnify Us from any third party claims arising from the termination of Your account, except as may be required by applicable law, and no refunds or compensation of any sort will be granted to You if We terminate Your account. You agree that any material breach of this Agreement will result in irreparable harm to Updatestack for which damages would be an inadequate remedy and, therefore, in addition to its rights and remedies otherwise available at law, Updatestack will be entitled to equitable relief, including both a preliminary and permanent injunction, if such a breach occurs. You waive any requirement for the posting of a bond or other security if Updatestack seeks such an injunction.
Upon any expiration or termination of this Agreement, You will immediately cease any and all use of and access to the Updatestack Platform. You acknowledge that following termination, You will have no further access to any of the data or information You input into the Updatestack Platform, and that Updatestack may delete any such data or information as may have been stored in the Updatestack Platform.
Updatestack may conduct advertising campaigns and promotions itself or on behalf of third parties on the Updatestack Platform. Your correspondence or business dealings with, or participation in promotions of, advertisers other than Updatestack found on or through the Updatestack Platform, including payment and delivery of related goods or services, and any other terms, conditions, warranties or representations associated with such dealings, are solely between You and such third party. Updatestack is not responsible or liable for any loss or damage of any sort incurred as the result of any such dealings or as the result of the presence of such non-Updatestack advertisers on the Updatestack Platform.

By accessing and using the Updatestack Platform, You (and any person or entity on whose behalf You act) hereby agree and consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of any state or federal court located in Cook County, Illinois and You hereby waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction and forum non-conveniens. You (and any person or entity on whose behalf You act) agree to service of process for any claim arising out of or related to this Agreement via a national private carrier (e.g., FedEx, UPS), and hereby waive personal service.
This Agreement contains the full understanding between the parties and supersedes all prior representations or agreements, whether oral or written, with respect to such matters. If any provision of the Agreement is held invalid by any law or regulation of any government, or by any court, the parties agree that such provision will be replaced with a new provision that accomplishes the original business purpose, and the other provisions of the Agreement will remain in full force and effect.
This Agreement is solely for the benefit of the parties, the Updatestack Parties, and their respective successors and assigns, and shall not be enforceable by or otherwise be interpreted in such a way as to create any third party beneficiary rights in any third party.

Except as provided herein, no supplement, modification, or amendment of this Agreement will be binding, unless executed in writing by a duly authorized representative of each party to this Agreement.
No waiver will be implied from conduct or failure to enforce or exercise rights under this Agreement, nor will any waiver be effective unless in a writing signed by a duly authorized representative on behalf of the party claimed to have waived. No provision of any purchase order or other business form employed by You will supersede the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and any such document relating to this Agreement will be for administrative purposes only and will have no legal effect.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, all claims against Updatestack or the Updatestack Parties arising out of this Agreement shall be filed within one (1) year of the date on which the event(s) first giving rise to the claim arose, and any claims not brought within such one-year limits shall be permanently barred.
