Customer acknowledges and agrees that (a) the services of such Marketplaces and Customer Providers do not form part of the Sift Services and (b) the Marketplaces and Customer Providers are service providers of Customer and not Sift. Customer’s use of the Marketplace or Customer Providers in connection with the Sift Services may be subject to a separate written agreement between Customer and Sift. In addition, if Customer wishes to use Sift Services product features that incorporate the services of a Sift Provider, to the extent the Sift Provider requires Customer to agree to their terms of service, Customer agrees to do so.

SIFT DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY AND RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY THIRD PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS OR FOR THE ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF SUCH THIRD PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS.

2.4 Non-compliance. Subject to obligations of confidentiality, where a party has a concern that the other party has not complied with this Agreement, the parties agree to exchange information to ascertain the cause of such non-compliance and take reasonable steps to remediate such non-compliance.

2.5 Customer’s Clients. Customer may only use the Sift Services for the benefit of its clients (each, a “Client“), with prior written approval from Sift in each instance. In the event such written approval is provided, Customer agrees to, prior to any such use of the Sift Services, enter into and maintain a written agreement with each Client that binds each Client with respect to all the terms set forth in the Client Pass-Through Addendum included at the end of this Agreement as Exhibit A (the “Pass-Through Terms“). Customer further represents, warrants, and covenants that each such agreement will contain data protection addendums that comply with applicable data protection laws, and will appoint Customer as a service provider on behalf of the Client. Customer acknowledges and agrees that, as between the parties, it is solely responsible for and will be liable: (i) for the actions or omissions of any Client in connection with the Sift Services and (ii) for ensuring compliance with this Agreement by such Clients.

3.1 Ownership of and Limited License to Customer Data. As between Sift and Customer, Customer owns and retains all right, title, and interest in and to its Customer Data. Customer grants to Sift a limited, royalty-free, non-exclusive, worldwide right and license to access, collect, use, process, store, copy, and create derivative works from the Customer Data only as set forth in this Agreement.

3.2 Use of Customer Data. Customer acknowledges and agrees that Sift may use the Customer Data for as long as reasonably necessary for the limited purpose of providing, maintaining, and improving the Sift Services, which includes improving its machine learning algorithms and data models as necessary to support such uses (the “Permitted Purpose”). Customer further acknowledges and agrees that, in connection with the Permitted Purpose, the Customer Data will be commingled with data received from other customers of the Sift Services; provided, that (a) the Customer Data shall not itself be made available to any other customer, and (b) Customer will not be identified to the extent the Customer Data contributes to the analytical results provided to other customers of the Sift Services.

3.3 Ownership of and Limited License to Sift Services and Analytical Results. Sift owns and retains all rights, title and interest in and to the Sift Services, including the Software, Documentation, Analytical Results, and Aggregated Data (as defined below). Sift grants to Customer a limited, royalty-free, non-exclusive, worldwide right and license to access and use the Sift Services, including the Software, Documentation and Analytical Results, only as set forth in this Agreement.

3.4 Feedback and Labels. If Customer (including any Authorized User) provides Sift any feedback (often referred to as “labels”) in connection with the Sift Services about whether a transaction or event on a Customer Property is associated with fraud, abuse or other illegal activity, Customer shall use reasonable efforts to ensure the accuracy of such feedback and grants Sift an unlimited, irrevocable, perpetual, sublicensable, royalty-free license to use any such feedback or labels for any purpose without any obligation or compensation to Customer or any Authorized User. Sift may label transactions or events on behalf of Customer in order to improve the accuracy of the Sift Services for Customer.

3.5 Aggregated Data. Customer acknowledges and agrees that Sift has the right with a perpetual royalty-free, irrevocable license to use data derived from Customer Data in connection with Customer’s use of the Sift Services that is aggregated with comparable data received from other customers (“Aggregated Data”) for (a) Sift’s internal purposes such as operating, maintaining, and improving the Sift Services, and (b) distribution of general benchmarking or industry-related reports as part of the Sift Services. For absolute clarity, such Aggregated Data shall not be reasonably capable of identifying any underlying individual nor identify the Customer as a source of any Aggregated Data, nor shall any output of Sift’s use of Aggregated Data include any Customer’s Confidential Information (as subsequently defined) or personal data (as defined under Applicable Laws). Sift will make no attempt to reidentify the Aggregated Data.

3.6 Beta Services. From time to time, Sift may invite Customer to try features or pre-release versions of the Sift Services that are not generally available to customers for non-production use (“Beta Services”). Customer may accept or decline such invitation in its sole discretion. Beta Services will be clearly designated as beta, pilot, limited release, developer preview, non-production, evaluation or by a description of similar import. Customer’s use of Beta Services will be for the term specified by Sift and if no term is specified, then for the earlier of one year from the start date of the Beta Services or when that version of the Beta Services becomes generally available, and therefore part of the Sift Services. Sift may discontinue Beta Services at any time in Sift’s sole discretion and may never make them generally available. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY, THE BETA SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS-IS” WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. SIFT HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY FOR ANY HARM OR DAMAGE ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH ANY BETA SERVICE.

4. Sift Commitments

4.1 Compliance with Applicable Law. Sift will comply with all Applicable Laws in connection with its provision of the Sift Services.

4.2 Security and Data Protection. Sift will maintain a security program with administrative, technical, organizational and physical security measures designed to protect Customer Data against unauthorized access, disclosure and loss.

To the extent the EU General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 applies to Sift’s processing of End User personal data within the Sift Service, Sift and Customer are each data controllers of any personal data that Sift processes in connection with the Sift Services, and to the extent U.S. State Privacy Laws applies to Sift’s processing of End User personal data within the Sift Services, Sift is a “service provider” or “processor” as defined under the applicable U.S. State Privacy Laws.

4.3 Sift Privacy Policy. Sift will maintain a readily-accessible service privacy policy on its website (located at https://sift.com/legal-and-compliance/service-privacy-notice), which it may update from time to time, that provides accurate disclosures concerning its data practices, including the collection, use, processing and sharing of Customer Data for fraud detection and prevention and other compatible purposes.

Customer agrees that Sift may send non-legal notices, statements and other information by email or through Customer’s account. Customer will be solely responsible for all use of the Sift Services under its account, including the acts and omissions of its Authorized Users and any decisions made based on the provision of the Sift Services to Customer. In addition, Customer will use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized access to the Sift Services and will notify Sift immediately of such unauthorized access.

5.3 Customer Responsibilities.

Customer is solely responsible for ensuring that its (or its Clients, if applicable) use of the Sift Services, including its provision of the Customer Data and use of Analytical Results, does not violate any Applicable Laws. Customer is solely responsible for any actions or decisions it makes in connection with its use of the Sift Services and Sift does not assume any responsibility or liability for such actions or decisions. If Customer’s Affiliates use Sift Services, Customer warrants that it has the authority to bind those Affiliates to this Agreement and shall be fully liable for Customer’s Affiliates if such Affiliates do not comply with the terms and obligations set forth in this Agreement and any Order Form.

5.4 Usage Restrictions. Customer shall not: (a) make the Sift Services available to anyone other than Authorized Users (or Clients, if applicable); (b) transfer, sublicense, resell, time share or similarly exploit the Sift Services (except, if applicable, to the extent necessary for Clients to receive the benefit of the Sift Services); (c) access the Sift Services to build (or facilitate the building of) a competitive product or service; (d) reverse engineer, modify, adapt, or otherwise attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Sift Services, or introduce any malicious code into the Sift Services; (e) provide to Sift any Customer Data that contains any Sensitive Personal information, or (f) use the Sift Services for purposes not contemplated by this Agreement, including but not limited to purposes prohibited under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) (as described further below) and the Equal Credit Opportunity Act (ECOA), or as a factor in establishing an individual’s creditworthiness or eligibility for credit, insurance, healthcare, housing, public benefits, emergency services, or employment, in any way that facilitates discrimination or in any other way that may violate or cause Sift to violate any Applicable Law. For clarity, the foregoing limitations apply to the Analytical Results and any other information derived from use of the Sift Services, as well as the Sift Service itself.

5.5 IMPORTANT FCRA RESTRICTIONS. Sift is not a consumer-reporting agency (“Consumer Reporting Agency”) as defined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1681 et seq. (“FCRA”) and the Analytical Results do not constitute “Consumer Reports”, as that term is defined in the FCRA. Customer will not use the Sift Services (including the Analytical Results) for any purposes enumerated in the FCRA in lieu of obtaining a Consumer Report. In particular, Customer will not use the Sift Services (including the Analytical Results): (i) in connection with establishing a Consumer’s (as such term is defined in the FCRA) eligibility for credit or insurance to be used primarily for personal, family or household purposes, or in connection with assessing risks associated with existing credit obligations of a Consumer; (ii) for the purpose of evaluating a Consumer for employment, promotion, reassignment or retention as an employee; (iii) for any tenancy verification or in connection with any application to rent real property; (iv) in connection with a determination of a Consumer’s eligibility for a license or other benefit that depends on an applicant’s financial responsibility or status; (v) as a potential investor or servicer, or current insurer, in connection with a valuation of, or assessment of credit or prepayment risks associated with, an existing credit obligation; (vi) in connection with any information, service or product sold or delivered to a Consumer that constitutes or is derived in substantial part from a Consumer Report; or (vii) for any other purpose under the FCRA. Customer also will not use the Sift Services (including the Analytical Results) for the preparation of a Consumer Report or in such a manner that may cause such data to be characterized as a Consumer Report. Customer agrees that it will not take any “Adverse Action” (as that term is defined in the FCRA), which is based in whole or in part on the Sift Services (including Analytical Results) against any Consumer.

5.6 Customer Data, Privacy Notice and Consent. Customer is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of Customer Data that it transfers to Sift, and shall ensure it has the right to transfer (or provide or authorize access to) Customer Data to Sift for the purposes contemplated in this Agreement (and has obtained any necessary consents or authorizations to do so). Customer will only transfer, or provide or authorize access to Customer Data to Sift that has been collected, processed and stored in accordance with its privacy notice and Applicable Laws. Customer will ensure that its privacy notice is readily accessible on applicable Customer Properties and includes accurate disclosures concerning the activities contemplated under this Agreement that complies with Applicable Laws, including (i) the collection and processing of Customer Data for the detection and prevention of fraud, security threats or other illegal or malicious behavior or managing disputes (preferably with a link to the Sift Privacy Notice); (ii) the disclosure of personal information to a third-party service provider for such purposes; and (iii) if applicable, the use of Snippets to collect and use Website Data as described in this Agreement. For clarity, as between the parties, Customer is solely responsible for obtaining any necessary consents, permissions and approvals from, and providing any notices to, End Users as required by Applicable Laws and this Agreement. The parties will provide reasonable assistance and reasonably cooperate with each other to assist with each party’s compliance with Applicable Laws and this Section 5.5.

5.7 Due Diligence and Remedial Action. Customer will conduct reasonable due diligence into any complaint Customer receives relating to the use of the Sift Services, such as any decisions made based on the provision of the Sift Services to Customer.

6. Payment

6.1 Direct Purchases.

6.1.1 Fees and Payment Terms. For direct purchases made by Customer (where Customer enters into an Order Form directly with Sift), Customer will pay the fees stated on an applicable Order Form (the “Fees”) within thirty (30) days of receipt of invoice. If Customer believes that Sift has billed Customer incorrectly, Customer must contact Sift no later than sixty (60) days after the invoice date in which the error or problem appeared, in order to receive an applicable adjustment or credit. Unless otherwise stated on an applicable Order Form, all Fees are non-cancelable and non-refundable, and all Fees are quoted and payable in the currency stated on the Order Form. Monthly or annual minimum fees paid may not be rolled into any future time period. Sift may charge interest on any unpaid amount due at the rate of one percent (1%) per month, or at the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower, from the date such payment was due until the date it is paid. In the event Sift pursues collection of any overdue Fees payable hereunder, Customer will reimburse all reasonable third-party costs and fees incurred by Sift in connection with those collection activities. Customer shall be responsible for any payments owed but not paid by any of Customer’s Affiliates ordering Sift Services in any Order Form.

Customer is responsible for paying or reimbursing Sift for any taxes associated with the purchase, unless Customer provides Sift with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority, and excluding taxes based on Sift’s income payable by Sift without regard to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. If applicable, Sift reserves the right to gross up any Fees, if any required withholding prevents Sift from receiving the full amount set forth in the applicable Order Form.

6.2. Purchases through a Reseller. If Customer purchases any Sift Services and/or Professional Services through a Reseller, this Agreement will govern Customer’s use of such Services and/or Professional Services, but not the payment obligations. In such case, Customer’s payment obligations for such services will be as agreed directly with the Reseller and not Sift. Customer warrants that it will timely pay to Reseller all amounts related to this Agreement. Customer expressly waives and agrees not to exercise any right it may have to downgrade a subscription or terminate a purchase of the Sift Services or Professional Services for its convenience, or otherwise cancel an order under any applicable Reseller, except as expressly permitted by this Agreement. Any disputes related to the payment obligations shall be handled directly between Customer and the Reseller.

7. Confidentiality

7.1 Definitions. As used herein, “Confidential Information” means all information disclosed by a party (“Disclosing Party”) to the other party (“Receiving Party”), whether orally or in writing, that is designated as confidential or that reasonably should be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information and the circumstances of disclosure. Confidential Information of Customer shall include Customer Data, and Confidential Information of Sift shall include the Software, the Analytical Results, all Documentation and the Beta Services. However, Confidential Information shall not include any information that the Receiving Party can document (a) is or becomes generally available to the public without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party; (b) was known to the Receiving Party prior to its disclosure by the Disclosing Party without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party; (c) is received from a third party without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party; or (d) was independently developed by the Receiving Party.

Receiving Party shall use the same degree of care that it uses to protect the confidentiality of its own confidential information of like kind (but in no event less than reasonable care) and shall (a) not to use any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party for any purpose outside the scope of this Agreement; and (b) except as otherwise authorized by the Disclosing Party in writing or as necessary to fulfill Receiving Party’s data protection rights and obligations as described herein, to limit access to Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to those of its employees, contractors and agents who need such access for purposes consistent with this Agreement; provided, that the Receiving Party shall remain liable for actions and omissions related to the use of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information by such third parties as if they were the actions and omissions of the Receiving Party..

7.3 Mandated Disclosures. The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party if it is compelled by law to do so; provided, the Receiving Party gives the Disclosing Party prior written notice of such compelled access or disclosure (to the extent legally permitted) and reasonable assistance, at the Disclosing Party’s cost, if the Disclosing Party wishes to contest the access or disclosure. If the Receiving Party is compelled by law to access or disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information as part of a civil proceeding to which the Disclosing Party is a party, and the Disclosing Party is not contesting the access or disclosure, the Disclosing Party will reimburse the Receiving Party for its reasonable cost of compiling and providing secure access to such Confidential Information.
