3. SUBSCRIPTIONS; PAYMENT TERMS

3.1. Subscriptions.  TrueDNA will provide access to the TrueDNA Services in accordance with the subscription plan purchased by Fleet Operator from TrueDNA (the “Subscription Plan”). Each Subscription Plan shall begin on the date Fleet Operator purchased the Subscription Plan, or on the start date specified in the applicable order form entered into by Fleet Operator and  TrueDNA for the purchase of a Subscription Plan, and continue for the applicable subscription period selected by Fleet Operator for such Subscription Plan (the “Subscription Term”). The term of a Subscription Plan is either monthly or annual for a Premium Subscription Plan and the term is perpetual for a Basic Subscription Plan. The Subscription Term for a Premium Subscription Plan shall automatically renew for successive periods equal to the initial Subscription Term, unless Fleet Operator provides us with written notice of non-renewal or termination prior to the expiration of Fleet Operator’s then-current Subscription Term.

3.2. Fees. Fleet Operator shall pay the applicable fees, if any, for the Subscription Plan purchased by Fleet Operator. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, the fees payable by Fleet Operator for the Subscription Plan will remain fixed during the Subscription Term unless Fleet Operator (i) exceeds the permitted user seats or other applicable usage limits of the Subscription Plan, (ii) upgrades the Subscription Plan, and/or (iii) subscribes to additional features or products, including Dashcam Hardware as described in Section 19 below. In the event a price change applies, Fleet Operator will be charged at the start of the next billing cycle for such additional fees. For the avoidance of doubt, Fleet Operator acknowledges and agrees that any downgrade to the Subscription Plan shall not take effect until the next renewal date of the applicable Subscription Term, regardless of Fleet Operator’s billing cycle for such Subscription Plan (i.e., for monthly Subscription Plans, prior to the start of the next month, and for annual Subscription Plans, prior to the start of the next year). Subscriptions Plans shall renew at TrueDNA’s then-current pricing for such Subscription Plan.

3.3. Payment Terms. All fees are due and payable by Fleet Operator in advance, unless otherwise expressly and mutually agreed to by Fleet Operator and TrueDNA in writing. Fleet Operator expressly agrees that TrueDNA  is permitted to bill Fleet Operator the applicable fees, any applicable tax, and any other charges Fleet Operator may incur with TrueDNA in connection with such Subscription Plan, and Fleet Operator hereby authorizes TrueDNA  to charge the fees to the credit card, or other payment method, Fleet Operator provides at the time the Subscription Plan is purchased, in accordance with the billing terms in effect at the time a fee or charge is due and payable. If payment is not received or cannot be charged to Fleet Operator for any reason in advance, TrueDNA reserves the right to suspend or terminate Fleet Operator’s and its Authorized User’s access to the TrueDNA Services, downgrade the Subscription Plan, and/or terminate this Agreement. All fees are non-refundable and non-cancellable.

3.4. Taxes. The fees are exclusive of any taxes, levies, duties, or similar governmental assessments of any nature, including, for example, value-added, sales, use, or withholding taxes, assessable by any jurisdiction (collectively, “Taxes”), and Fleet Operator is and shall be responsible for payment of all such taxes (other than taxes based on TrueDNA’s income), and any related penalties and interest, arising from the payment of the fees, the delivery of the TrueDNA Services, or performance of any services by TrueDNA hereunder.


4. TERM; TERMINATION

At any time, TrueDNA may (i) suspend or terminate Fleet Operator’s and/or any Authorized User’s right to access or use the TrueDNA Services (or any part thereof), or (ii) terminate this Agreement with respect to Fleet Operator if TrueDNA, in good faith, believes that Fleet Operator has used the TrueDNA Services (or any part thereof) in violation of this Agreement, including any incorporated guidelines, terms, or rules. In addition,  TrueDNA may terminate a Basic Subscription Plan upon at least thirty (30) days written notice, provided that such termination may only take effect on a date that is at least two (2) years after the start date of that Basic Subscription Plan.

4.3. Effect of Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, all outstanding fees immediately become due and payable, and Fleet Operator’s and its Authorized Users’ right to access and use the TrueDNA Services will automatically terminate. Fleet Operator will immediately delete and permanently erase all copies of the App from Authorized Devices in Fleet Operator’s or any Authorized User’s possession or control upon termination of this Agreement for any reason. In addition, Fleet Operator shall return to TrueDNA, at Fleet Operator’s cost, all units of the Hardware (excluding Dashcam Hardware, which is governed by Section 19 below) in good working order, reasonable and normal wear and tear excepted, within forty-five (45) days of the date of termination. Fleet Operator shall use the TrueDNA shipping containers to return the Hardware units. If Fleet Operator has not saved the original shipping containers, Fleet Operator may use other appropriate and safe shipping boxes. If Fleet Operator fails to return any Hardware unit (excluding Dashcam Hardware) within forty-five (45) days of termination, TrueDNA reserves the right to charge Fleet Operator a fee of seventy-five dollars ($75.00) per unreturned Hardware unit, which Fleet Operator agrees to pay promptly upon invoicing.  TrueDNA agrees to use a designated third-party data cleansing provider to wipe all Fleet Operator data from the returned Hardware units. The following Sections will survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement: 1.2, 1.4, 1.5, 2, 3, 4.3, 5 through 19.

TrueDNA AND ITS LICENSORS AND SUPPLIERS DO NOT WARRANT OR MAKE ANY GUARANTEE THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED OR THAT  TrueDNA SERVICES (OR ANY PART THEREOF), THE REPORTS, OR ANY OTHER MATERIALS OR SERVICES PROVIDED BY  TrueDNA OR CONTENT MADE AVAILABLE THROUGH  TrueDNA SERVICES: (I) WILL MEET FLEET OPERATOR’S REQUIREMENTS; (II) WILL BE COMPATIBLE WITH FLEET OPERATOR’S NETWORK, COMPUTER, OR MOBILE DEVICE, OR ANY THIRD-PARTY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES; (III) WILL BE AVAILABLE ON AN UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE BASIS; OR (IV) WILL BE ACCURATE OR RELIABLE.

9. APPLICATION OF LIMITATIONS AND DISCLAIMERS TO CONSUMERS

Certain states and/or jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties or limitation of liability for incidental or consequential damages with respect to consumers (i.e., a person acquiring goods otherwise than in the course of a business), so the exclusions set forth in Sections 7 and 8 above may not apply to Fleet Operator if Fleet Operator is a consumer. The limitations or exclusions of warranties and liability contained in this Agreement do not affect or prejudice the statutory rights of a consumer. The limitations or exclusions of warranties and remedies contained in this Agreement shall apply to Fleet Operator as a consumer only to the extent such limitations or exclusions and remedies are permitted under the laws of the jurisdiction where Fleet Operator is located.


10. BASIS OF THE BARGAIN

The warranty disclaimer and limitation of liability set forth above in Sections 7 and 8 are fundamental elements of the basis of the agreement between  TrueDNA  and Fleet Operator.  TrueDNA would not be able to provide the  TrueDNA Services on an economic basis without such limitations. The warranty disclaimer and limitation of liability inure to the benefit of  TrueDNA’s suppliers.

12. AVAILABILITY OF THE SERVICES

Information describing the  TrueDNA Services is accessible worldwide, but this does not mean the  TrueDNA Services, or certain portions thereof, are available in Fleet Operator’s country.  TrueDNA may restrict access to the  TrueDNA Services, or portions thereof, in certain countries in its sole discretion. It is Fleet Operator’s responsibility to make sure Fleet Operator’s use of the  TrueDNA Services is legal in Fleet Operator’s country of residence. The  TrueDNA Services may not be available or accessible in all languages. If at  TrueDNA’s reasonable determination, Fleet Operator uses the  TrueDNA Services or any other material or services provided by  TrueDNA to Fleet Operator in a manner that violates laws, creates an excessive burden or potential adverse impact on  TrueDNA’s systems, in addition to any of its other rights or remedies,  TrueDNA may, without liability to  TrueDNA, immediately suspend or terminate Fleet Operator’s access to the  TrueDNA Services.


13. EXPORT CONTROL

Fleet Operator may not use or otherwise export or re-export the App, Hardware (including Dashcam Hardware, if applicable), and/or Platform (or any aspect of the foregoing) except as authorized by United States law and the laws of the jurisdiction in which the App, Hardware, and/or Platform was obtained. In particular, but without limitation, the App, Hardware, and Platform may not be exported or re-exported (i) into any U.S. embargoed countries or (ii) to anyone on the U.S. Treasury Department’s list of Specially Designated Nationals or the U.S. Department of Commerce Denied Person’s List or Entity List. By using the  TrueDNA Services, Fleet Operator represents and warrants that Fleet Operator is not located in any such country or on any such list.
