We reserve the right to assume exclusive control of our defense in any matter subject to your indemnification, which shall not excuse your obligation to indemnify Assist. You shall not settle any dispute subject to your indemnification under these Terms without written consent from Assist.

6.1 CONTROLLING LAW AND JURISDICTION

These Terms will be governed by the laws of the State of Tennessee without regard to or application of its conflict of law provisions or your state or country of residence.

You acknowledge sole responsibility for and assume all risk arising from your use of any such websites or resources.

6.3 WAIVER, SEVERABILITY, AND ASSIGNMENT

Assist’s failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of its right to do so later. If a provision is found invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of the Terms will remain in full effect and an enforceable term will be substituted reflecting our intent as closely as possible. You may not assign any of your rights under these Terms, and any such attempt will be void.

6.6 HEADINGS

The headings of the sections contained in these Terms are for convenience only and shall not be deemed to control or affect the meaning or construction of any provision of the Terms.

6.7 MODIFICATION OF TERMS

These Terms, as well as the incorporated Privacy Policy, Payment Policy, and Additional Service Terms you agree to, are the entire and exclusive agreement between you and Assist, and these Terms supersede and replace any prior agreements between Assist and you regarding the Services. However, the foregoing does not supersede or replace any Master Services Agreement, Order Form, or other written agreement between you and Assist, that is explicitly in addition to or replaces these Terms. These Terms create no third-party beneficiary rights.

6.10 FORCE MAJEURE

Neither you nor Assist shall be liable to the other for any act, failure to perform, delay in performance, event or circumstance under this Agreement if, and to the extent that such act, failure to perform, delay in performance, event or circumstance is caused by conditions beyond the delayed Party’s reasonable control and which, by the exercise of reasonable diligence, the delayed Party is unable to prevent or provide against. Such conditions include, but are not limited to, acts of God; strikes, boycotts, or other concerted acts of workmen; laws, regulations, or other orders of public authorities; military action, state of war, epidemic, pandemic, or other national emergency; fire, or flood, or any other cause beyond the reasonable control of the party invoking this section (collectively, a “Force Majeure”). The Party affected by any such force majeure event or occurrence shall give the other Party written notice of said event or occurrence within a commercially reasonable time following such event or occurrence.

6.11 CONFIDENTIALITY

Definition of “Confidential Information”. “Confidential Information” shall mean any and all technical and non-technical information disclosed by either Party (“Disclosing Party”) to the other Party (“Receiving Party”) and labeled at the time of such disclosure as “Confidential” or bearing a similar legend, and all other information that the Parties knew, or reasonably should have known, was the Confidential Information of the other Party. Confidential Information may include, without limitation: (i) trade secrets, inventions, ideas, processes, computer source and object code, formulae, programs, other works of authorship, know-how, improvements, discoveries, developments, designs, and techniques; or (ii) information regarding products, plans for research and development, marketing and business plans, budgets, financial statements, contracts, prices, suppliers, and customers. Confidential Information includes personal information, except that the Exclusions set forth below do not apply. For clarity, nothing shall limit Assist’s ability to provide the Services to its other customers based on personal information provided by those third parties to Assist, even if that personal information is identical, in whole or in part, to personal information provided by Customer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Recipient has no obligation to return or destroy Discloser’s Confidential Information backed up from a computer system for archival purposes in the ordinary course of Recipient’s business, and which may only be used only as necessary to comply with law, provided that Confidential Information remains subject to all applicable obligations under this Agreement for the duration of the archival retention period.

Confidentiality Obligations. Subject to the Exclusions section below, Receiving Party agrees that it will (i) hold in confidence and not disclose to any third party any Confidential Information of Disclosing Party; (ii) protect such Confidential Information with at least the same degree of care that Receiving Party uses to protect its own Confidential Information, but in no case, less than reasonable care; (iii) use Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information for no purpose other than performing said Party’s obligations under this Agreement; (iv) limit access to Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information to those of Receiving Party’s employees or authorized representatives having a need to know who have signed confidentiality agreements containing, or are otherwise bound by, confidentiality obligations at least as restrictive as those contained herein; and (v) promptly notify Disclosing Party upon discovery of any loss or unauthorized disclosure of Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information. The Parties agree that neither Party will communicate any information to the other Party in violation of the proprietary rights of any third party. Subject to any legally-mandated retention requirements, Receiving Party agrees to securely destroy or return any Confidential Information still in its possession upon termination of this Agreement.

Exclusions. Receiving Party has no obligations under this Agreement with respect to any portion of Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information if such Receiving Party can demonstrate with competent evidence that such portion (i) was in the public domain at the time it was communicated to Receiving Party by Disclosing Party; (ii) entered into the public domain subsequent to the time it was communicated to Receiving Party by Disclosing Party, through no fault of Receiving Party; (iii) was in Receiving Party’s possession free of any obligation of confidence prior to the time it was communicated to Receiving Party; (iv) was developed by employees or agents of Receiving Party independently of and without reference to any information communicated to Receiving Party by Disclosing Party; or (v) was communicated by Disclosing Party to an unaffiliated third party free of any obligation of confidence. Notwithstanding the above, Receiving Party may disclose Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, without violating the obligations of this Agreement, to the extent such disclosure is required by a valid order of a court or other governmental body having jurisdiction, provided that Receiving Party gives Disclosing Party reasonable prior notice of such disclosure and makes a reasonable effort to obtain, or to assist Disclosing Party in obtaining, a protective order preventing or limiting the disclosure and/or requiring that the Confidential Information so disclosed be used only for the purposes for which the law or regulation required, or for which the order was issued.
