Customer agrees that it has the legal right and authority to access, use and disclose to HOMEE any Customer Data. As between the parties, Customer retains all right, title and interest (including any and all intellectual property rights) in and to the Customer Data. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Customer hereby grants to HOMEE and its Affiliates a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free right to Process the Customer Data solely to the extent necessary to provide the MyCAT Marketplace Services to Customer, to prevent or address service or technical problems therein, or as may be required by applicable law.

3.2 Invoices; Payment. Unless otherwise set forth in an Order Form, HOMEE will invoice Customer for Fees for the MyCAT Marketplace Services as set forth in the applicable Order Form and each invoice will be due and payable within thirty (30) days of receipt by Customer. All payment obligations are non-cancellable, and other than as provided in the Agreement, all amounts paid are non-refundable. If any undisputed amounts payable by Customer are still outstanding more than fifteen (15) days after Customer receives notice of non-payment, HOMEE will be entitled, in its sole discretion, to withhold performance and discontinue Customer’s access to the MyCAT Marketplace until all undisputed amounts past due are paid in full.

3.4 Payment Disputes. HOMEE will not exercise its rights under Section 7.2 (Termination for Cause) or Section 7.5(a) (Suspension of the MyCat Marketplace Services) with respect to non-payment by Customer if Customer is disputing the applicable charges reasonably and in good faith and is cooperating diligently to resolve the dispute. If the parties are unable to resolve such a dispute within thirty (30) days, each party shall have the right to seek any remedies it may have under this Agreement, at law or in equity, irrespective of any terms that would limit remedies on account of a dispute.

  1. PROPRIETARY RIGHTS

    4.1 Customer Intellectual Property. Customer owns and retains: (a) the Customer Data; (ii) Customer’s name, logo and other trademarks; and (iii) all Intellectual Property Rights in and to any of the foregoing subject only to the limited license granted in Sections 4.2 and 10.5.

    4.2 Limited License to Use Customer Data. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Customer and any Affiliate licensed hereunder hereby grants HOMEE a limited, royalty-free, fully-paid up, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and non-sublicensable license to Process the Customer Data in the United States strictly as instructed by Customer or an Authorized User and solely as necessary to provide the MyCAT Marketplace Services for Customer’s and such Affiliates’ benefit as provided in this Agreement for so long as Customer or any Authorized User uploads or stores such Customer Data for Processing by or on behalf of HOMEE on the MyCAT Marketplace.

HOMEE shall exclusively own all Usage Data. Insights drawn from Usage Data may be disclosed to Customer and other users of the MyCAT Marketplace in connection with their respective use of the MyCAT Marketplace Services; provided that, if HOMEE discloses insights drawn from Usage Data, then all Usage Data in such disclosures will be anonymized and aggregated, will not identify a Customer, the Customer’s users or the Customer’s Customer Data, and will not be disclosed in a manner that would permit a third party to determine a Customer, a Customer’s users’ identity or the Customer’s Customer Data.

    1. CONFIDENTIALITY

    5.1 Use and Nondisclosure. A receiving party will not use the disclosing party’s Confidential Information except as necessary under this Agreement and will not disclose Confidential Information to any third party except: (a) to those of its employees and contractors who have a business need to know such Confidential Information; provided that each such employee and contractor is bound to confidentiality restrictions at least as restrictive as the terms set forth in this Agreement or (b) as further described in the Data Processing Addendum. Each receiving party will protect the disclosing party’s Confidential Information from unauthorized use and disclosure using efforts equivalent to the efforts that the receiving party uses with respect to its own confidential information and in no event less than a reasonable standard of care. The provisions of this Section 5.1 will remain in effect during the Term and for a period of five (5) years after the expiration or termination thereof, except with regard to trade secrets of the disclosing party, which will be held in confidence for as long as such information remains a trade secret.

    5.2 Exclusions. The obligations and restrictions set forth in Section 5.1 will not apply to any information that: (a) is or becomes generally known to the public through no fault of or breach of this Agreement by the receiving party; (b) is rightfully known by the receiving party at the time of disclosure; (c) is independently developed by the receiving party without access to the disclosing party’s Confidential Information; or (d) the receiving party rightfully obtains from a third party who has the right to disclose such information without breach of any confidentiality obligation to the disclosing party.

    5.3 Permitted Disclosures. The provisions of this Section 5 will not restrict either party from disclosing the other party’s Confidential Information: (a) pursuant to the order or requirement of a court, administrative agency, or other governmental body; provided that to the extent legally permitted, the party required to make such a disclosure gives reasonable notice to the other party to enable it to contest such order or requirement or limit the scope of such request; (b) on a confidential basis to its legal or professional financial advisors; (c) as required under applicable securities regulations.

    5.4 Injunctive Relief. The receiving party acknowledges that disclosure of Confidential Information could cause substantial harm for which damages alone may not be a sufficient remedy, and therefore that upon any such disclosure by the receiving party, the disclosing party will be entitled to seek appropriate equitable relief in addition to whatever other remedies it might have at law.

    1. WARRANTY

    6.1 Warranty for MyCAT Marketplace Services.

If HOMEE determines a Service Credit is due, then HOMEE will apply the applicable Service Credits to Customer’s account for future fees due. Service Credits have no cash value and are Customer's sole and exclusive remedy for any failure by HOMEE to meet the Target Uptime.
