You may not:
Zenwork warrants that the Services will perform substantially in all material respects in accordance with the Program Documentation. If the Services provided to You for any calendar month during the Services term were not performed as warranted, You must provide written notice to Zenwork as specified in the Quote no later than five (5) business days after any such failure to perform or within such other period stated in the Quote. Zenwork’s only obligation and Your only remedy for failure of warranty shall be the reperformance of the Services so that they conform to the warranty granted herein. In the event that such reperformance is not practicable within a reasonable period of time, Zenwork may, at its option, refund any payments made with respect to the nonconforming Services.
ZENWORK DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE PERFORMED ERROR-FREE OR UNINTERRUPTED, OR THAT ZENWORK WILL CORRECT ALL SERVICES ERRORS. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ZENWORK DOES NOT CONTROL THE TRANSFER OF DATA OVER COMMUNICATIONS FACILITIES, INCLUDING THE INTERNET, AND THAT THE SERVICE MAY BE SUBJECT TO LIMITATIONS, DELAYS, AND OTHER PROBLEMS INHERENT IN THE USE OF SUCH COMMUNICATIONS FACILITIES. ZENWORK IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DELAYS, DELIVERY FAILURES, OR OTHER DAMAGE RESULTING FROM SUCH PROBLEMS. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, THESE WARRANTIES ARE EXCLUSIVE AND THERE ARE NO OTHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS INCLUDING FOR HARDWARE, SYSTEMS, NETWORKS OR ENVIRONMENTS OR FOR MERCHANTABILITY, SATISFACTORY QUALITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
If specified in the Quote, You may order certain Services for trial, nonproduction purposes subject to these Terms. Services acquired for trial purposes are provided “as is” and Zenwork does not offer any warranties or provide any representations for such Services.
If a third Party makes a claim against either You or Zenwork (“Recipient” which may refer to You or Zenwork depending upon which Party received the Material as hereinafter defined), that any information, design, specification, instruction, software, service, data, program or material (any of the foregoing, “Material”) furnished by either You or Zenwork (“Discloser” which may refer to You or Zenwork depending on which Party provided the Material), and used by the Recipient directly infringes its intellectual property rights, the Discloser, at its sole cost and expense, will defend the Recipient against the claim and indemnify the Recipient from the damages, liabilities, costs and expenses awarded by the court to the third party claiming infringement or the settlement agreed to by the Discloser, if the Recipient does the following:
If the Discloser believes or it is determined that any of the Material may have violated a third party’s intellectual property rights, the Discloser may choose to either modify the Material to be non-infringing (while substantially preserving its utility or functionality) or obtain a license to allow for continued use, or if these alternatives are not commercially reasonable, the Discloser may end the license for, and require return of, the applicable Material and refund any unused, prepaid fees the Recipient may have paid to the other Party for such Material. If such return materially affects Zenwork’s ability to meet its obligations under the relevant Quote, then Zenwork may, at its option and upon thirty (30) days prior written notice, terminate the Quote. The Discloser will not indemnify the Recipient (i) if the Recipient alters the Material or uses it outside the scope of use identified in the Discloser’s Program Documentation or if the Recipient uses a version of the Materials which has been superseded, if the infringement claim could have been avoided by using an unaltered current version of the Material which was provided to the Recipient; or (ii) to the extent that an infringement claim is based upon (a) any information, design, specification, instruction, software, data, or material not furnished by the Discloser, or (b) any Material from a third party portal or other external source that is accessible to You within or from the service (e.g., a third party Web page accessed via a hyperlink). Zenwork will not indemnify You (i) to the extent that an infringement claim is based upon the combination of any Material with any products or Services not provided by Zenwork; (ii) for infringement caused by Your actions against any third party if the Services as delivered to You and used in accordance with these Terms would not otherwise infringe any third party intellectual property rights; or (iii) for any infringement claim that is based on: (1) a patent that You were made aware of prior to the date of the Quote (pursuant to a claim, demand, or notice); or (2) Your actions prior to the effective date of the Quote. This section provides the parties’ exclusive remedy for any infringement claims or damages.
Services shall be provided for the period defined in the Quote unless earlier terminated in accordance with these Terms. The term of the Services and any renewal years are collectively defined as the “Services term.” At the end of the Services term, all rights to access or use the Services, including the Zenwork programs listed in the Quote, shall end, automatically and without any act or deed.
If either Party breaches a material term of these Terms and fails to correct the breach within thirty (30) days of written specification of the breach, then the breaching Party is in default and the non-breaching Party may terminate the applicable Quote under which the breach occurred. If Zenwork ends the Quote as specified in the preceding sentence, You must pay within thirty (30) days thereafter all amounts which are due prior to the termination. The non-breaching Party may agree in its sole discretion to extend the thirty (30) day period for so long as the breaching Party continues reasonable efforts to cure the breach. If You end the Quote as specified in this Section, then Zenwork shall remit to You any fees paid for Services not provided prior to the termination date.
You agree that if You are in default under these Terms, You may not use the Services ordered and shall specifically have no rights applicable thereto. In addition, Zenwork may immediately suspend Your password, account, and all access to or use of the Services if You fail to pay Zenwork any amount as required under the Quote and these Terms and do not cure within the first five (5) days of the 30 day cure period, or (ii) if You violate any provision within sections D, J or Q of these Terms. Zenwork may terminate the Services hereunder if any of the foregoing is not cured within 30 days after Zenwork’s initial notice to You thereof. Any suspension by Zenwork of the Services under this Section H shall, in no event, excuse You from Your obligation to make payment(s) to Zenwork.
At Your request, and for a period of up to sixty (60) days after the termination or expiration of the applicable Quote, Zenwork may permit You to access the Services solely and absolutely to the extent necessary for You to retrieve a file of Your raw data then in the Services environment, provided, however, that the form of the file obtainable by You may be a screen shot, .PDF or other non-electronic or non-electronically manipulative form in the event that You are in breach of these Terms or otherwise have any amounts due and owing to Zenwork.
You agree and acknowledge that Zenwork has no obligation to retain Your data and that Your data may be irretrievably deleted after sixty (60) days following the termination of the Quote.
Provisions that survive termination or expiration of the Quote or these Terms are those relating to limitation of liability, indemnity, confidentiality, data retention and privacy, payment, and others which by their nature are intended to survive.
You agree to pay for all Services ordered as set forth in the applicable Quote. Unless expressly stated otherwise in an applicable Quote, any rates or fees identified in a Quote may be adjusted no more than once every twelve (12) months by upon thirty days written notice to You, including by email or by notice on Zenwork’s website. In addition, rates or fees may be adjusted at any time and from time to time to reflect increases in the Consumer Price Index or other direct costs, upon written notice to You, including by email or by notice on Zenwork’s website. Discounts (if any) are based on the filing by You of the quantity of forms or transactions identified in the Quote, within the Term of the Quote.
If Customer prepays fees for forms or transactions, rights to file such forms or transactions shall expire on the earlier of the anniversary of the “paid by” date if stated in the Quote or the anniversary of the date of the Quote. No credit or refund shall be made in respect of such expired rights to file forms or transactions. Zenwork may, in its discretion, roll over expired rights to the next annual period.
No refunds of payments shall be made by Zenwork to Customer. In the event that any refund would otherwise be due for any reason, Zenwork shall provide credit to Customer’s account.
Payment can be completed via ACH, check, wire, a prepaid amount on Your account, payment upon each transaction, or an invoice sent upon request. If Zenwork agrees to process forms or transactions where no credit remains, Customer will be invoiced and agrees to make payment for these Services 10 calendar days from date of invoice. All fees due under the Quote are non-cancelable and the sums paid nonrefundable, except as otherwise specifically stated in the Quote.
You agree to pay any sales, value-added or other similar taxes imposed by applicable law that Zenwork must pay based on the Services You ordered, except for taxes based on Zenwork’s income. You will reimburse Zenwork for reasonable expenses related to providing any on-site portion of the Services. Fees for Services listed in a Quote are exclusive of taxes and expenses. All amounts hereunder are due before or at the time of service unless otherwise set forth in the Quote. Any undisputed overdue amounts owed by You will accrue interest at the lesser of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month or the highest rate permitted by applicable laws.
You agree that You have not relied on the future availability of any Services, programs or updates in entering into the payment obligations in the Quote; however, the preceding does not relieve Zenwork of its obligation to deliver Services that You have ordered pursuant to the terms of the Quote.

The confidentiality provisions hereof supersede any existing nondisclosure obligations relating to the Services between You and Zenwork.
