1. 2Ring Cloud Subscriptions

Subject to the payment of the Subscription Fee (as defined in Section 5.1 below), 2Ring will provision an account for Subscriber (“Subscriber’s Account”) through which Subscriber’s and its Affiliates’ employees and contractors (collectively, “Users”) may access the 2Ring Service in accordance with this Agreement and subject to applicable Usage Limits (as defined in Section 1.2 below). Any information that is provided to 2Ring for the Subscriber’s Account must be accurate, current and complete. Subscriber agrees to update the Subscriber’s Account information so that 2Ring may send notices, statements and other information to Subscriber by email or through the Subscriber’s Account. Subscriber is responsible for all actions taken through Subscriber’s Account.  Subscriber may use its Subscriptions only in the ordinary course of Subscriber’s business in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the applicable order form accepted by 2Ring (“Order”), and in accordance with 2Ring’s published specifications as set forth in the documentation section of the 2Ring Service for the applicable Subscription (the “Documentation”), and all applicable laws and regulations. 

1.2 Usage Limits. Subscriber’s Subscriptions may be subject to usage limits as set forth in the Order (“Usage Limits”) such as, but not limited to, the maximum number of concurrent agents and supervisors that can be logged into the 2Ring Service and the type of connector the 2Ring Service may be used for by those concurrent agents and supervisors.  If Subscriber exceeds any Usage Limit, Subscriber agrees to pay the amount for any excess usage in accordance with 2Ring’s applicable pricing and payment terms then in effect.  Subscriber further acknowledges that the number of concurrent agents and supervisors for which a Subscription is purchased is limited to the specific connector set forth on the Order and is not transferable to a different connector, unless otherwise agreed by 2Ring in writing.

1.3 Term of a Subscription. The term of each Subscription (the “Subscription Term”) is set forth in the applicable Order and is specific to the connector described in that Order for that Subscription.  The Subscription Term, for a given Subscription, shall commence on the date the 2Ring Service is activated by 2Ring for use by Subscriber as notified by 2Ring in writing (which may be by email) to Subscriber or the applicable Authorized Reseller (the “Activation Date”). This Agreement will continue until the Subscription Term has expired or has been terminated for all Subscriptions purchased by Subscriber.  The Subscription Term for a given Subscription will automatically renew for that Subscription for successive twelve (12) month periods, effective on the first day after the end of the previous Subscription Term (the “Renewal Date”) for that Subscription, unless either Subscriber or 2Ring gives the other written notice not to renew that Subscription (“Notice of Non-Renewal”) at least thirty (30) days before the Renewal Date.  If Notice of Non-Renewal is given in accordance with this Section, the applicable Subscription will terminate as of 12:01 a.m. Pacific Standard Time on the day following the last day of the expiring Subscription Term.  The Subscription pricing during any renewal Subscription Term will be at 2Ring’s then-current pricing for that Subscription at the time of renewal.

Subscriber will not, and will not allow Users, to: (a) make its Subscriptions, the Subscriber’s Account, or the 2Ring Service, available to any person other than as permitted in this Agreement, or use its Subscriptions, Subscriber’s Account, or the 2Ring Service, for the benefit of, anyone other than Subscriber; (b) copy or reproduce (apart from embedding a link to the 2Ring Service in Subscriber’s User interface to allow Users to access and use the 2Ring Service as permitted in this Agreement), distribute, republish, download, post or transmit any portion of the 2Ring Service, or any underlying intellectual property, in any form or by any means, including electronic, mechanical, scraping, recording or other means; (c) use its Subscriptions, the Subscriber’s Account, or the 2Ring Service, to create, store or transmit code, files, scripts, agents or programs intended to do harm, including viruses, worms, time bombs and Trojan horses; (d) use its Subscriptions, the Subscriber’s Account, or the 2Ring Service, to create, store or transmit material or content in violation of any third party’s copyright, trademark, patent or other intellectual property rights or any proprietary rights, or otherwise in violation of any applicable law; (e) interfere with or disrupt the integrity or performance of the 2Ring Service for any person; (f) take any action that imposes an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on the 2Ring Service, or any systems or networks related to the 2Ring Service, as determined by 2Ring in 2Ring’s sole discretion; (g) attempt to gain unauthorized access to the 2Ring Service, or any systems or networks related to the 2Ring Service; (h) permit direct or indirect access to, or use of, its Subscriptions, the Subscriber’s Account, or the 2Ring Service, in a way that circumvents any Usage Limit; (i) copy the 2Ring Service, or any part, feature, function or user interface of it; (j) access the 2Ring Service to develop, create, train, improve or build any product or service, including any product or service that competes with, or is similar to, the 2Ring Service, or for any other benchmarking or competitive purpose; or (k) use any materials, software, data or information of a third party with the 2Ring Service other than as permitted by the applicable third party’s terms and conditions therefor and this Agreement.

Subscriber grants 2Ring and 2Ring Personnel, a worldwide license, under all applicable intellectual property and other proprietary rights, during the term of this Agreement, to host, copy, transmit, and display or execute Subscriber Content as reasonably necessary for 2Ring to provide the functionality of the 2Ring Service, including pushing and pulling Subscriber Content to and from any Third Party Product integration Subscriber chooses to use with the 2Ring Service.  Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that Subscriber’s revocation of any of the foregoing licenses granted by Subscriber shall release 2Ring from any and all obligations to provide or make available the 2Ring Service, in whole or in part, to Subscriber and any User and 2Ring shall not be obligated under any circumstances to refund any amounts paid to 2Ring for any Subscription.  Subject to the limited licenses granted by Subscriber under this Agreement, 2Ring does not acquire any right, title or interest in or to Subscriber Content.  2Ring makes no representation or warranty regarding the interoperability of Subscriber Content with the 2Ring Service or any Third Party Product integrations.  Subscriber is responsible for the accuracy, quality and legality of Subscriber Content and the means by which Subscriber or any User acquired, uses or discloses Subscriber Content (including, providing adequate privacy notices under applicable law).  Subscriber represents and warrants that it has obtained all necessary rights and permissions to grant the rights and permissions granted under this Agreement.

5. Payment and Fees

5.1 Subscription Fee. The subscription fee is set forth on the Order (“Subscription Fee”) and is due upfront for Subscribers who pay 2Ring directly.  Any additional seats purchased by Subscriber for a specific connector shall be prorated for the then-current Subscription Term for that connector and shall be subject to renewal concurrently with the renewal of the 2Ring Subscription purchased by Subscriber for that connector. Once an Order is submitted to 2Ring by Subscriber or, on your behalf by your Authorized Reseller, it is non-cancelable and the sums paid nonrefundable, except as provided in this Agreement or in the applicable Order.  There will be no refunds for decreases in Subscription usage, whether that relates to the number of seats or connectors used or otherwise.  If Subscriber is unable or unwilling to abide by its Usage Limits, Subscriber agrees to execute an Order with 2Ring or the applicable Authorized Reseller for additional seats or connectors promptly upon request, and/or pay any invoice for excess usage in accordance with 2Ring’s then-current pricing and payment terms.  Subscriber further agrees that 2Ring may, without liability, suspend Subscriber’s Account until such time as Subscriber comes into compliance with its Usage Limits or Subscriber purchases additional seats or connectors or makes additional payment as required by this Section for exceeding the Usage Limits.

5.2 Payments. As applicable, the Authorized Reseller may choose to bill Subscriber themselves or require Subscriber to submit credit card information to 2Ring so that 2Ring may charge Subscriber’s credit card.  If Subscriber is required to submit credit card information to 2Ring, Subscriber is responsible for providing complete and accurate billing, credit card, and contact information and notifying 2Ring of any changes to such information.  If Subscriber provides credit card information, Subscriber authorizes a charge to Subscriber’s credit card for each Subscription, including any additional purchases ordered or invoiced in accordance with Section 5.1.

5.3 Overdue Charges. If 2Ring does not receive any amount owed by the due date, then, without limiting 2Ring’s rights or remedies, those charges may accrue late interest at the rate of one and one-half percent (1.5%) of the outstanding balance per month, or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower.  If payment is late by thirty (30) days or more, 2Ring may terminate Subscriber’s Subscriptions and begin collection efforts.

5.4 Taxes. Subscription Fees payable to 2Ring do not include any taxes, levies, duties or similar governmental assessments of any nature, including, for example, value-added, sales, use or withholding taxes, assessable by any state or other taxing authority whatsoever (collectively, “Taxes”). Subscriber is responsible for paying all Taxes associated with the Subscriptions.  For clarity, 2Ring is solely responsible for taxes assessable against 2Ring based on 2Ring’s income, property, and employees.  If any value added Tax or other Tax is chargeable, 2Ring shall specify such Tax in addition to the Subscription Fee in the invoice, and Subscriber shall pay such Tax at the same time it pays the Subscription Fee.

5.5 Fee Changes. 2Ring will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify Subscriber or the applicable Authorized Reseller of any change to the Subscription Fee for its Subscription at least thirty (30) days before the fee change goes into effect. If an increase or change in the Subscription Fee for any Subscription is not acceptable to Subscriber, Subscriber may, without any liability, or obligation, on the part of 2Ring, terminate that Subscription or this Agreement in accordance with Section 10 prior to the time when such fee increase or change takes effect. Subscriber’s continued use of any Subscription that is subject to the fee increase or change after such thirty (30) day period constitutes Subscriber’s agreement to the fee increase or change.
