  1. Discontinuing any component of the Platform, temporarily or permanently;
  2. Modifying the Platform with regard to application functionality, look and feel, branding, etc.
  3. Taking actions to preserve our rights upon any use of the Platform that may be reasonably interpreted as violation of our intellectual property rights;

Your continued use of the Platform after the effective date of a modification shall indicate your consent to the modification. Autologica shall not be liable to the Client or to any third person for any modification, suspension or discontinuance of the Platform, or any part or element thereof.

 

5.7 Data Interfaces. A “Data Interface” is a software component of the Platform that may perform some or all of these functions:

  • Periodically receive data from a third party and insert it into the Platform, such data thus becoming Client Data. For example, a Data Interface may receive leads from a third-party source and insert them into the CRM component of the Platform;
  • Periodically send Client Data, such as customer information, to a third party; and/or
  • Allow a third party to access Client Data, for example by allowing an application owned by a third party to automatically synchronize Client Data with the Platform.

 

Data Interfaces must be activated by the Client, and may be deactivated by the Client at any time. Data Interfaces may have a one-time and/or ongoing fee.

 

Any exchange of data or Client Data between you and any third party is solely between you and that third party. We do not warrant or support third party products, services, or data providers whether or not they are designated by us as “certified” or similar.

 

If you receive data from a third party through a Data Interface, you warrant that you have entered into an agreement with that third party.

 

If you share Client Data with a third party, you warrant that you either own the Client Data or have the necessary rights and permissions to share the Client Data.

 

If you activate a Data Interface, you acknowledge that Supplier may allow third parties to access Client Data. Supplier shall not be responsible for any disclosure, modification or deletion of Client Data resulting from any such access by third parties.

 

As third party software and data sources are subject to various factors (such as but not limited to connectivity, infrastructure, data, data specifications, technology, business issues) over which we have no control, and due to the vital importance that Client Data and Data Interfaces may imply for your business, it is advisable that you designate a User to monitor and audit the correct performance of every Data Interface you use. It is Client’s responsibility to immediately inform us if you detect an error in a Data Interface, or if you receive notification from a third party related to a change in any aspect of a Data Interface. We shall make all reasonable efforts to fix any such situations reported by you, or detected by us, in a timely manner. We shall not be responsible for the correct performance of any Data Interface that interacts with a third party. Autologica may suspend or discontinue any Data Interface at any time without prior notice.

 

5.8 Integration with third party services. The Platform may contain features that interoperate with third party applications (e.g. Google Maps). To use such features, you may be required to obtain access to these third-party applications from their providers. If the provider of any such third party applications ceases to make their application interoperable with the Platform at reasonable technical or financial terms, we may cease to provide such integration without entitling you to any refund, credit, or compensation unless you are being charged for said integration in which case we shall reimburse you for the time period in which it was not available in the amount paid specifically for that time period.

 

5.9 On-premise installation. One or more components of the Platform may be installed on your servers by mutual consent of Client and Autologica, in which case these Terms shall remain in effect.

5.10 Feature suggestions. You may, from time to time, suggest that Autologica incorporate certain features or modifications into the Platform or Content. Such suggestions shall not be binding. We may, in our sole discretion, undertake to incorporate such changes into the Platform in any manner we deem, including modifying the suggestion or merging it with other features or suggestions. Client and Autologica shall agree on the cost to Client of developing these suggestions. All features based on suggestions provided by Client or Users that are incorporated into the Platform shall be the sole property of Supplier as described in the “Intellectual property rights” section of these Terms.

 

5.11 Data for testing purposes. In the event that it is necessary, Client authorizes Autologica to use a copy of its Client Data database in order to improve the Platform, e.g. to perform testing in order to reproduce errors. In such case, Autologica shall maintain all data in strict confidentiality.

 

5.12 Unauthorized uses. You may not access the Platform if you are a competitor, or to monitor functionality or performance of the Platform, or for any other competitive purpose.

7. Client Data

7.1 Client’s responsibilities. Client shall be responsible for the accuracy, quality and legality of the Client Data and of the means by which Client and Users acquire Client Data.

 

7.2 Uploading Client Data to the Platform. If the Client uploads Client Data to the Platform, such Client Data and any processing of such Client Data must be in compliance with these Terms and applicable law. All rights, title and interest in and to the Client Data belong to the Client or third persons (including Users, Organizations and persons) whether posted and/or uploaded by Client or made available on or through the Platform by Autologica, or if uploaded by Autologica upon request of Client (e.g. in the case of data importation). Client authorizes Autologica to process the Client Data. The Client is responsible for ensuring that:

 

  • Client and Users associated with the Account do not create, transmit, display or make otherwise available any Client Data that violates the terms of these Terms, the rights of Autologica, other Clients or Users, persons or Organizations, or is harmful (e.g. Internet viruses, malware and other harmful or malicious code), offensive, threatening, abusive, harassing, tortuous, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, invasive of another’s privacy, defamatory, hateful or otherwise unlawful; and
  • Client and all Users associated with the Account have the necessary rights to use the Client Data, including to insert it into the Platform and process it by means of the Account.

 

7.3 No guarantee of accuracy. Autologica does not guarantee any accuracy with respect to any information contained in any Client Data, and strongly recommends that you think carefully about what you transmit, submit or post to or through the Platform. You understand that all information contained in Client Data is the sole responsibility of the person from whom such Client Data originated. This means that Client, and not Autologica, is entirely responsible for all Client Data that is uploaded, posted, transmitted, or otherwise made available through the Platform, as well as for any actions taken by Autologica or other Clients or Users as a result of such Client Data.

 

7.4 Unlawful Client Data. Autologica is not obliged to pre-screen, monitor or filter any Client Data or processing acts by the Client in order to discover any unlawful nature therein. However, if such unlawful Client Data or the action of its unlawful processing is discovered or brought to the attention of Autologica or if there is reason to believe that certain Client Data is unlawful, Autologica has the right to:

  • Notify the Client of such unlawful Client Data;
  • Deny its publication on the Platform, and/or its insertion to the Platform;
  • Demand that the Client bring the unlawful Client Data into compliance with these Terms and applicable law;
  • Temporarily or permanently remove the unlawful Client Data from the Platform or Account, restrict access to it, or delete it.

 

If Autologica is presented convincing evidence that the Client Data is not unlawful, Autologica may at its sole discretion restore such Client Data which was removed from the Platform or Account, or restore access that was restricted.

 

In addition, in the event Autologica believes in its sole discretion that Client Data violates applicable laws, rules or regulations or these Terms, Autologica may (but has no obligation to) remove such Client Data from the Platform at any time with or without notice.

 

Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, Autologica complies with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, and will remove Client Data from the Platform upon receipt of a compliant takedown notice.

 

Autologica as the data processor will assist the Client as the data controller in meeting the Client’s obligations under Regulation (EU) 2016/679, providing subject access, and allowing data subjects to exercise their rights under Regulation (EU) 2016/679.

 

7.5 Compelled disclosure. Autologica may disclose a Client’s confidential information to the extent compelled by law to do so. In such instance, Autologica will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Client with prior notice of the compelled disclosure (to the extent legally permitted) and Client shall provide reasonable assistance, at its cost, if Client wishes to contest the disclosure. If Autologica is compelled by law to disclose Client’s confidential information as part of a civil proceeding to which Autologica is a party, and Client is not contesting the disclosure, Client will reimburse Autologica for its reasonable cost of compiling and providing secure access to that confidential information.

 

7.6 Data backup. It is Client’s sole responsibility to back up their data, including Client Data. We recommend you establish a formal data backup policy.

 

8. Data processing contract

The composition and format of the Client Data that is returned to Client shall be determined by Autologica.

 

8.3 Parties’ rights and obligations. The Client’s rights and obligations regarding Client Data are provided in these Terms. Autologica ensures that persons authorized to process the personal data have committed themselves to confidentiality or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality. Autologica takes all measures required pursuant to Article 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679.

This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of Argentina. In the event of any dispute arising out of these Terms, their validity, interpretation, reach, compliance, execution or termination, as well as the resulting remedies, the parties shall attempt to solve the matter amicably in mutual negotiations.

 

In the event a mutually acceptable resolution cannot be reached within a reasonable time, the dispute shall be resolved by the Tribunal de Arbitraje General de la Bolsa de Comercio de Rosario, in accordance with that entity’s current rules and procedures for arbitration, which the parties acknowledge awareness of and accept, and which are considered an integral part of this Agreement.

 

The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (Vienna Convention of 1980) shall not be applied to these Terms.

 

The parties agree to bring any dispute against the other in our respective individual capacities and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, representative proceeding or as an association. In addition, we each agree that disputes shall be arbitrated only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. The arbitrator does not have the power to vary these provisions.

 

If any part of this provision is ruled to be unenforceable, then the balance of this provision shall remain in full effect and construed and enforced as if the portion ruled unenforceable were not contained herein.

These Terms are not for the benefit of any third parties.

 

19.2 Severability. If any term, condition or provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal in whole or in part for any reason, that provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permissible so as to affect the intent of the parties. The validity and enforceability of the remaining terms, conditions or provisions, or portions of them, shall not be affected.

 

19.3 Entirety. These Terms are the entire agreement between Client and Autologica regarding Client’s use of the Platform; they supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, proposals or representations, written or oral, concerning its subject matter.

19.4 Transfer of Terms. Client may not, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, assign or transfer these Terms or delegate any of its rights and/or obligations under these Terms without Autologica’s prior written consent.
