2. Term; Changes to Service
a. Term and Termination. This Agreement shall be effective upon your acceptance of this Agreement, as provided above, and shall continue until you or we terminate this Agreement as permitted herein. If you subscribe to a plan with a minimum term commitment (a “Term Plan”), you agree to maintain your Service or Bundled Service for the duration of that Term Plan, including any renewal Terms, if applicable. Your Term Plan begins on the later of: (i) the date the Services were subscribed to or purchased; or (ii) the date provisioning of your Service is complete, which will be the due date established by Coalition if you are self-installing the Service, or for Bundled Services, your Term Plan once all Bundled Services have been provisioned (the “Service Ready Date”). You will begin receiving any Term Plan or other discount pricing associated with a Bundled Service plan once all Bundled Services have been provisioned. Depending on the plan selected, your Term Plan will either expire at the end of the initial minimum term commitment period or will automatically renew for the same number of months as the initial minimum term commitment period (a “Renewal Term”). If a Term Plan expires, your Service will continue and automatically convert to month-to-month rates that may be higher than Term rates. If you subscribe to a Term Plan that automatically renews, your Term Plan will renew after each initial and renewal Term at the then-current Term rates unless you or we cancel the renewal by contracting the other within the 30-day period before or the 60-day period after the renewal date. When you select a Term Plan, the monthly rates, minimum term periods, renewal terms, early termination fees (as applicable), and other terms of that plan will also apply and become part of this Agreement. In the event you change Service or Bundled Service plans, your monthly rate and term commitment may change (depending on the plan you select); otherwise, the terms of this Agreement will remain in effect unless otherwise provided. To the extent permitted by applicable law, you or Coalition may terminate the Service at any time and for any reason.
Upon termination for any reason, you will be responsible for payment of all outstanding account balances and charges accrued through the date of termination, and, if such termination is by you, any applicable early termination fee. If a termination is a result of violation by you of the terms of this Agreement, you may also be liable to pay an early termination fee. We reserve the right, but assume no obligation, to suspend performance immediately if you are more than thirty (30) calendar days overdue in payments or if, in our reasonable judgment, you have violated any provision of this Agreement. We may, at our sole discretion, refuse to accept your subsequent request for Service following a termination or suspension of your use of the Service.
b. Changes to Service. We reserve the right to change the Service (or any part thereof), at any time with or without notice to you. If such a change materially and adversely affects your use of the Service, and we cannot reasonably mitigate the impact, then, as your sole and exclusive remedy, you may terminate the Service without further obligation.
c. Changes to Insurance Policy. If you change or discontinue your cyber insurance coverage from Coalition to a different third party provider, we may in our discretion, terminate your Service in a Term Plan or continue to provide Services at the then-current rates, terms and conditions applicable to your new Service plan, and you agree to pay any new or higher monthly fee that may apply to your new Service plan.
d. Move/Down-grade/Up-Grade Plan Change Activities and Associated Fees. You may down-grade or up-grade Service plans or purchase Bundled Services at any time, and your Term Plan will not be altered as a result of such Term Plan change activity. In the event that you up-grade to a Bundled Service plan, a new term commitment (depending on the plan or insurance policy that you select) will apply starting on the effective date of your new Bundled Service plan or insurance policy and additional charges may apply, subject to the terms and conditions for the new Service plan.
3. Prices/Billing. For any Service or Bundled Service, we will give you at least thirty (30) calendar days prior notice of a price increase in the manner set forth in Section 8 below or by email to your email address on file with us. A price change shall not apply to a Term Plan until the next renewal date following the notice of the price change. Your continued use of the Service or the Bundled Service after a price change is effective constitutes your acceptance of the price change. If you change your Service or Bundled Service or your Term Plan, you agree to pay the applicable monthly fee that may apply to your new Term Plan. You agree to pay the applicable monthly fee that may apply to your new Term Plan. You also agree to pay all charges associated with the Term Plan selected, including but not limited to (a) applicable taxes, (b) surcharges, (c) early termination fees, and (d) other non-recurring charges. Notwithstanding the pricing guarantee set forth above, the taxes, fees and other charges detailed in this section (a) through (c) may vary on a monthly basis; any variation will be reflected in your overall monthly charge. The amounts and what is included in such charges or fees applied to your billing account for any reason, including but not limited to interest and charges due to insufficient credit or funds. When you access the Services or web sites through a mobile network, your network or roaming provider's messaging, data, and other rates and fees may apply and you will be responsible for all such charges. Downloading, installing, or using certain Services may be prohibited or restricted by your network provider and may not work with your network provider or device. You are solely responsible for all charges or fees payable to Coalition and third parties, including all applicable taxes, and you are solely responsible for protecting the security of credit card and other personal information provided to third parties in connection with such transactions. Monthly Service recurring charges may be billed one month in advance, depending on Term Plan. Billing for Service(s) will automatically begin on the Service Ready Date unless you are notified otherwise by Coalition. We may, at our election, waive any fees or charges. You will begin receiving any discount associated with a Bundled Service plan once all Bundled Services have been provisioned. Coalition or its agent will bill you directly, or bill your credit or debit card, as you request and as approved by Coalition. IF YOU ELECT TO BE BILLED FOR YOUR SERVICE ON YOUR CREDIT CARD OR DEBIT CARD, COALITION WILL CONTINUE TO BILL THE CARD UNTIL YOU TELL US TO CANCEL SUCH BILLING, AND YOU ALSO AGREE THAT COALITION MAY RECEIVE UPDATED CARD INFORMATION FROM YOUR CARD ISSUER.
If you cancel any component of a Bundled Services plan, the monthly charges for the remaining Services on your account will automatically convert to the applicable existing, non-discounted month-to-month service rate. Eligibility for promotional offers may be contingent upon payment of all outstanding Coalition charges, including Insurance Policy Premiums.
You agree to pay your bill electronically each month and to promptly update your email address with Coalition if it changes. Each month you will receive an email notifying you that your bill is available online for viewing . If your electronic payment is rejected for any reason, Coalition may charge a return item fee (where permissible), cancel your subscription or enrollment in the Term Plan.

In the event that Coalition utilizes a collection agency or takes legal action to recover monies past due, you agree to reimburse Coalition for all expenses incurred to recover such monies (including attorney's fees). If you fail to pay your bill, we may submit a negative credit report to credit reporting agencies which may negatively affect your credit report. You may be given the option to select a prepaid service plan ("Prepaid Service Plan") which will begin on the later of (a) the date of your subscription or enrollment, or (b) the date you change to the Prepaid Service Plan.

Violations of such third party provider’s terms of service may, in Coalition’s sole discretion, result in the termination of your Service. You further agree to indemnify, defend and hold Coalition harmless from and against any claims or liabilities that may result from your use of such third party sites.
g. All title and intellectual property rights (including without limitation, copyrights, patents, trademarks and trade secrets) in and to the Coalition Platform, Service and Web Sites (including but not limited to, related software, images, photographs, animations, video, audio, music, text, and Content), are owned by Coalition, its subsidiaries, third-party licensors or providers acting on Coalition’s behalf, as applicable. All title and intellectual property rights in and to the Content and Services which may be accessed through use of the Platform or Coalition’s Web Sites are the property of Coalition and may be protected by applicable copyright or other intellectual property laws and treaties.
12. Deletion of Software and Data Upon Termination of Service. If your Service is terminated for any reason prior to the end of the Term Plan, you must immediately stop using any paid Services associated with the Term Plan that you were subscribed to or enrolled in. For the avoidance of doubt, you must cease use of all Software provided and immediately delete such Software from your computer. YOU AGREE THAT IF YOUR SERVICE IS TERMINATED FOR ANY REASON, COALITION HAS THE RIGHT IMMEDIATELY TO DELETE ALL DATA, FILES AND OTHER INFORMATION (INCLUDING EMAILS, ACCOUNT INFORMATION OR OTHER CONTENT) STORED IN OR FOR YOUR ACCOUNT WITHOUT FURTHER NOTICE TO YOU.
13. Web Scans. Users of the Platform may utilize Coalition’s free automated service to scan and monitor devices and domains which they specify (“Web Scans”). These Web Scans are conducted to ascertain the compliance of network devices and applications with certain published security standards and to disclose potential security vulnerabilities that may be present. Security audits may be performed with the assistance of Coalition employees or its appointed contractors and may from time to time include additional probing and validation beyond the scope of Coalition’s automated scanning system. In certain cases, the exploitation of a vulnerability and/or minimal extraction of data from the target server may be conducted to support Coalition’s security audit findings, or to illustrate a vulnerability to you. Security audits typically include, but are not limited to, port scanning and port connections, evaluating services by checking versions and responses to certain requests, and crawling websites to perform testing of forms, application responses, or to confirm the existence of certain files.
a. Limitation of Reports. The reports generated from the Web Scans are meant to be taken as preliminary and indicative only, and should not be used as a substitute for a comprehensive security audit. They are based on limited information gathered using the methodology described above, and we do not guarantee that these reports will be fully accurate, complete, or suitable for your purposes. Further limitations are set out in paragraph 6 above, titled “No Warranties”.
b. Authorization for Web Scans. By utilizing the Service to perform Web Scans, you certify that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner or licensee of, or are the authorized representative of an individual, business, or other legal entity having contractual usage rights granted by an ISP or Web Host owning or licensed to use, any and all Internet Protocol addresses (the “IPs”) and the associated computer hardware, network, storage, input/output or electronic control devices, or software installed on such devices (the “Devices”) to which you direct the Web Scans to be performed.
14. Customer Equipment; Service Performance; Backup and Maintenance.
a. Customer Equipment. You are solely responsible for obtaining, installing, configuring, and maintaining suitable equipment and software, including any necessary system or software updates, patches or other fixes, which are or may become necessary to access the Service or Platform. The preceding obligations apply regardless of whether Coalition or a third party provided the software or hardware to you.
b. Service Availability and Performance. The Term Plan or Service you select may not be available in all areas and some locations will not qualify for the Term Plan or Service even if initial testing or pilots were run in a particular location or for a particular market. The speed of the Platform or Service will vary based on your network system or Internet congestion, your computer configuration, your chosen Term Plan or Service, and potentially the condition or quality of your internet service, among other factors.
c. Email Security. Coalition reserves the right in our sole discretion to provide the level of security we deem appropriate to safeguard our network and customers, and other Platform users, against Internet threats or abuses, including without limitations, viruses, spam, phishing, identity theft and any other potentially disabling or harmful threat or abuse. These security measures may include but are not limited to, the use of firewalls and blocklists to block potentially harmful or abusive emails or attachments, anti-spam filters anti-virus or anti-spyware software, or blocking selected ports. Such activities may result in the blocking, filtering or non-delivery of legitimate and non-legitimate email sent to or from your email account to Coalition. By using any Coalition-provided email address, you agree that delivery and receipt of email is not guaranteed.
d. Coalition Backup and Maintenance. Coalition may use, copy, display, store, transmit, translate, rearrange, reformat, view and distribute your information to multiple Coalition servers. Coalition may access, copy, block or remove any Content or other user information stored on your Service or the Platform, whether pursuant to a subpoena or otherwise. We do not guarantee that these procedures will prevent the loss of, alternation of, or the improper access to, your information.
15. Resolution of Disputes.
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY AS IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS.
a. Agreement to Arbitrate. This Dispute Resolution by Binding Arbitration section is referred to in these Terms as the "Arbitration Agreement". To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you agree that any and all disputes or claims that have arisen or may arise between you and Coalition, whether arising out of or relating to these Terms (including any question regarding these Terms’ arbitrability, existence, interpretation, validity, breach ,or termination of the business relationship created by it), our Services, any advertising, any aspect of the relationship or transactions between us, shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than a court, in accordance with the terms of this Arbitration Agreement, except that you may assert individual claims in small claims court, if your claims qualify. Further, this Arbitration Agreement does not preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, provincial, territorial, or local agencies, and such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf. You agree that, by entering into these Terms, you and Coalition are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. Your rights will be determined by a neutral arbitrator, not a judge or jury. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement.
b. Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AND COALITION AGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND COALITION AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S OR PARTY'S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CLASS PROCEEDING. ALSO, THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY'S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S), EXCEPT THAT YOU MAY PURSUE A CLAIM FOR AND THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED FOR THE ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS PROVISION.
c. Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution. Coalition is always interested in resolving disputes amicably and efficiently, and most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to the customer's satisfaction by emailing customer support at help@coalitioninc.com. If such efforts prove unsuccessful, a party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a written Notice of Dispute ("Notice"). The Notice to Coalition should be sent to Coalition, Inc., 1160 Battery St., Ste 350, San Francisco, CA 94111, United States ("Notice Address"). The Notice must (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought. If Coalition and you do not resolve the claim within sixty (60) calendar days after the Notice is received, you or Coalition may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by Coalition or you shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which you or Coalition is entitled.
d. Arbitration Procedures. Arbitration will be conducted by a neutral arbitrator in accordance with the American Arbitration Association's ("AAA") rules and procedures, including the AAA's Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively, the "AAA Rules"), as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. For information on the AAA, please visit its website, http://www.adr.org. Information about the AAA Rules and fees for consumer disputes can be found at the AAA's consumer arbitration page, http://www.adr.org/consumer_arbitration. If there is any inconsistency between any term of the AAA Rules and any term of this Arbitration Agreement, the applicable terms of this Arbitration Agreement will control unless the arbitrator determines that the application of the inconsistent Arbitration Agreement terms would not result in a fundamentally fair arbitration. The arbitrator must also follow the provisions of these Terms as a court would. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including, but not limited to, issues relating to the scope, enforceability, and arbitrability of these Terms. Although arbitration proceedings are usually simpler and more streamlined than trials and other judicial proceedings, the arbitrator can award the same damages and relief on an individual basis that a court can award to an individual under the Terms and applicable law. Decisions by the arbitrator are enforceable in court and may be overturned by a court only for very limited reasons.
Unless Coalition and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in a reasonably convenient location for both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, the determination shall be made by AAA. If your claim is for USD 10,000 or less, Coalition agrees that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds USD 10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.
e. Cost of Arbitration. Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees (collectively, the "Arbitration Fees") will be governed by the AAA Rules, unless otherwise provided in this Arbitration Agreement. If the value of the relief sought is USD 75,000 or less, at your request, Coalition will pay all Arbitration Fees. If the value of relief sought is more than USD 75,000 and you are able to demonstrate to the arbitrator that you are economically unable to pay your portion of the Arbitration Fees or if the arbitrator otherwise determines for any reason that you should not be required to pay your portion of the Arbitration Fees, Coalition will pay your portion of such fees. In addition, if you demonstrate to the arbitrator that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Coalition will pay as much of the Arbitration Fees as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive. Any payment of attorneys' fees will be governed by the AAA Rules.
16. Limitation of Liability. IN NO EVENT SHALL COALITION OR ITS THIRD PARTY LICENSORS, PROVIDERS OR SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR (A) ANY PUNITIVE, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL OR INDIRECT DAMAGES INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOST PROFITS OR LOSS OR DAMAGE TO DATA ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE SERVICES, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, OR (B) ANY CLAIMS AGAINST YOU BY ANY THIRD PARTY.
17. Limitation on Damages. OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY NON-INSTALLATION, SECURITY BREACH, FAILURE OR DISRUPTION OF SERVICES PROVIDED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION, WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL NOT EXCEED A PRO RATA CREDIT FOR THE MONTHLY FEES (EXCLUDING ALL TAXES) YOU HAVE PAID TO COALITION FOR THE SERVICE DURING THE TWELVE (12) MONTH PERIOD PRIOR TO WHEN SUCH CLAIM AROSE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT PERMIT THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES OR THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES. IN THESE JURISDICTIONS OUR LIABILITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
18. Third Party Beneficiaries. ALL LIMITATIONS AND DISCLAIMERS STATED IN THIS AGREEMENT ALSO APPLY TO COALITION’S THIRD PARTY LICENSORS, PROVIDERS AND SUPPLIERS AS THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES OF THIS AGREEMENT, each of which is a third party beneficiary of this Agreement capable of enforcing its terms independently from Coalition.
19. Force Majeure. If the performance of any obligation hereunder is interfered with by reason of any circumstance beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, labor strikes and other labor disturbances, power surges or failures, or the act or omission of any third party, we shall be excused from such performance to the extent necessary, provided that we shall use reasonable efforts to remove such causes of non-performance.
20. Publicity. You shall not use any trademark, trade name, trade dress or any name, picture or logo which is commonly identified with Coalition or its subsidiaries or affiliates, or from which any association with Coalition, its subsidiaries or affiliates may be inferred or implied, in any manner without the prior written permission of Coalition.
21. Choice of Law. These Terms and your use of the Platform and Services are governed in all respects by the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of laws except for such principles of conflicts of laws which cannot be waived by a choice of law.
22. Venue. Any dispute concerning the Services or these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive venue of a court of competent jurisdiction in San Francisco County, California. 23. Miscellaneous. The terms and conditions of this Agreement supersede all previous agreements, proposals or representations related to the Service. No terms and conditions of any managed services agreement, invoice, or similar document in connection with this Agreement will be effective unless expressly stated otherwise in a writing signed by each of the Parties, and such terms and conditions will be governed by this Agreement. To the extent there exists any conflict between this Agreement and such terms and conditions, this Agreement shall govern, unless such writing includes the section number of this Agreement that the Parties agree no longer govern or is modified for the matter covered thereby. You may not assign this Agreement without our prior written consent. We may freely assign this Agreement. Any changes to this Agreement, or any additional or different terms in your purchase orders, partnership agreements, service agreements or other documents, will not be effective unless expressly agreed to in writing by us. Any notices or demands or other communications under the terms of this Agreement or under any statute must be communicated in writing. Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, notices to us must be made to the attention of the Legal Department and sent to the address* listed below via email or via overnight courier or express delivery service. Notices shall be deemed to have been given on receipt if delivered by overnight express courier. Notices to you will be sent either to your email address on file in your account with Coalition, or in the manner set forth in Section 8 (e) above. If any of the terms or conditions in this Agreement are properly found to be invalid or unenforceable by a court or government body of competent jurisdiction, the remaining terms or conditions of this Agreement shall not be affected by the finding and shall continue to apply as necessary to reflect the original intention of the parties. Coalition’s failure at any time to enforce any provision of this Agreement or any right or remedy available hereunder or at law or equity, or to exercise any option herein provided shall in no way be construed to be a waiver of such provision, right, remedy or option or in any other way affect the validity of this Agreement. The exercise by Coalition of any rights, remedies or options provided in this Agreement or at law or equity shall not preclude or prejudice Coalition from exercising thereafter the same or any other rights or remedies or options.

ATTACHMENT B
PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY
The following terms and conditions modify the Terms of Service and apply for any Agreement between a company located in Germany and a Coalition Inc. subsidiary organized and existing under the laws of Germany. To the extent no amendments to the terms of the Terms of Service have been made in this Attachment B, the terms of the Terms of Service apply. All capitalized terms in this Attachment B will have the same meaning as set forth in the Terms of the Agreement unless otherwise defined below.
The Services are directed exclusively at entrepreneurs (“Unternehmer”) in terms of Section 14 of the German Civil Code (“Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch” – hereinafter “BGB”). Coalition may therefore demand that you provide Coalition with sufficient evidence of your entrepreneurial status prior to conclusion of an Agreement, e.g. by stating your registration with the commercial register (“Gewerbeanmeldung”) or VAT ID number or other suitable proof. The information required for proof shall be given by you complete and truthful.
1. Change of Services and this Agreement. Sections 1.a.iv (Changes of Services), 8.b (Revisions to Terms of Services) and 2.a (Changes to Service) of the Terms of Service do not apply and are replaced by the following:
Coalition may, at any time, request a change to this Agreement or any Service within a reasonable notice period of at least thirty (30) calendar days in text form providing you with necessary information regarding such change. Upon expiry of the notice period without your objection, the changes will take effect. Coalition will inform you of the consequences resulting from non-objection when requesting the change. If you object to a change requested by Coalition, the previous conditions continue to apply (unchanged). For the avoidance of doubt, Coalition’s right to terminate the Agreement or the provision of a Service in accordance with Section 5 of this Attachment B remains unaffected in case you object to changes requested by Coalition.
2. Changes to Fees. Section 1.a.vii (Changes to Fees) of the Terms of Service does not apply.
3. Ownership of Services. Section 1.a.viii.3 of the Terms of Service does not apply.
4. Commercially Reasonable Efforts. Section 1.a.ix (Commercially Reasonable Efforts) of the Terms of Service does not apply.
5. Term and Termination. Sections 2 (Term, Changes to Service), 5 (Renewal and Cancellation) and 10.b (Termination or Suspension) of the Terms of Service do not apply and are replaced by the following:
a. Term and Termination for Convenience. This Agreement becomes effective upon your acceptance of this Agreement, as provided above, and shall continue until all subscriptions and Services granted in accordance with this Agreement have expired or been terminated by you or us as permitted herein.
You may subscribe to Services provided under this Agreement based on either a monthly subscription or different subscription plans each specifying a minimum term, special rates appliable for such subscription plan and, as applicable, renewal terms, early termination fees or other relevant terms which will become part of this Agreement (a “Term Plan”).
Both, Coalition and you, may terminate any monthly subscription for convenience at any time and for any reason by providing thirty (30) calendar days prior written notice with effect to the end of the respective billing period.
If you subscribe to Services with a minimum period based on a Term Plan, the minimum term and, if applicable, any Renewal Terms set out in the Term Plan apply. The term set out in your Term Plan begins on the later of: (i) the date you subscribe to Services based on a Term Plan; or (ii) the date provisioning of your Service is complete, which will be the due date agreed between the parties if you are self-installing the Service, whereas in case of Bundled Services all Bundled Services must have been provisioned (the “Service Ready Date”). For clarity, you will begin receiving any discount pricing associated with receiving Bundled Services based on a Term Plan once all Bundled Services have been provisioned. Depending on the Term Plan selected and as set out in the respective Term Plan, your Term Plan will either expire at the end of the initial minimum term or will automatically renew for the same number of months as the initial minimum term (a “Renewal Term”).
If your Term Plan automatically expires the end of the initial minimum term, we will notify you at least thirty (30) calendar days before such expiry in text form of (i) the respective expiry date; (ii) the fact that we will continue to provide respective Services based on a monthly subscription from the expiry date unless you object to such further provision of Services based on a monthly subscription at any time during such notice period in text form and (iii) of fees applicable for such monthly subscription (which may be higher than fees payable according to a Term Plan). Upon expiry of the notice period without your objection, we will continue to provide respective Services based on a monthly subscription. If you object to such change, the provision of the Services will expire upon the expiry date. If you subscribe to a Term Plan that automatically renews, your Term Plan will renew after each initial and renewal Term at the same conditions or at the then-current conditions subject to Section 16 of this Attachment B. Both, Coalition and you may prevent the renewal of a Term Plan by providing the other with a written notice within thirty (30) calendar days prior to the end of the initial minimum term of such Term Plan.
You may not terminate Services received based on a Term Plan for convenience prior to expiry of the respective term unless set out otherwise in the respective Term Plan (potentially subject to early termination fees).
b. Termination for Cause. The right of you or Coalition to terminate this Agreement or any Service provided under this Agreement at any time for good cause (“aus wichtigem Grund”) remains unaffected. Coalition may, at its sole discretion, suspend the provision of any Service under this Agreement for good cause (“wichtiger Grund”) instead of terminating this Agreement or the provision of a Service. Good cause (“wichtiger Grund”) shall in particular exist for Coalition if (i) you are in default with payment of the monthly or annual fee, as applicable, for more than thirty (30) calendar days; (ii) if you have substantially violated any provision of this Agreement or a policy referenced herein; (iii) your use of the Services materially adversely affects or threatens any Service, the Platform or our other customers or employees; or (iv) if you change or discontinue your cyber insurance coverage from Coalition to a different third party provider. We may, at our sole discretion, refuse to accept your subsequent request for Service following a termination or suspension of your use of the Service.
c. Consequences of a Termination. Upon termination for any reason, you will be responsible for payment of all outstanding account balances and charges accrued through the date of termination, and, if applicable, an early termination fee if and to the extent set out in a Term Plan.
d. Move/Down-grade/Up-Grade Plan Change Activities and Associated Fees. You may down-grade or up-grade Term Plans at any time. If you up-grade your Term Plan, a new minimum term (depending on the plan you select) will apply starting on the Service Ready Date of your new Term Plan and additional charges may apply, subject to the terms and conditions of the new Term Plan.
6. Prices/Billing. Section 3 (Prices/Billing) of the Terms of Service does not apply and is replaced by the following:
If you change your Service or Bundled Service or your Term Plan, you agree to pay the monthly fee applicable to your new Term Plan. You also agree to pay all charges associated with the Term Plan selected, including but not limited to (a) applicable taxes, (b) surcharges, (c) if applicable, and agreed early termination fees, and (d) other non-recurring charges as set out in the Term Plan. When you access the Services or web sites through a mobile network, your network or roaming provider’s messaging, data, and other rates and fees may apply and you will be responsible for all such charges. Downloading, installing, or using certain Services may be prohibited or restricted by your network provider and may not work with your network provider or device. You are solely responsible for all charges or fees payable to Coalition and third parties, including all applicable taxes, and you are solely responsible for protecting the security of credit card and other personal information you provide to third parties in connection with such transactions. Monthly Service recurring charges may be billed one month in advance, depending on the respective Term Plan. Billing for Service(s) will automatically begin on the Service Ready Date unless otherwise agreed between you and Coalition. We may, at our election, waive any fees or charges. You will begin receiving any discount associated with a Bundled Service plan once all Bundled Services have been provisioned. Coalition or its agent will bill you directly, or bill your credit or debit card, as you request and as approved by Coalition. IF YOU ELECT TO BE BILLED FOR YOUR SERVICE ON YOUR CREDIT CARD OR DEBIT CARD, COALITION WILL CONTINUE TO BILL THE CARD DURING THE TERM OF THIS AGREEMENT UNTIL YOU TELL US TO CANCEL SUCH BILLING, AND YOU ALSO AGREE THAT COALITION MAY RECEIVE UPDATED CARD INFORMATION FROM YOUR CARD ISSUER.
If you terminate any component of a Bundled Services plan, the monthly charges for the remaining Services on your account will automatically convert to the applicable existing, non-discounted month-to-month service rate unless you terminate the other Services as well. In case of such a termination of a component of a Bundled Service Plan, we will notify you of the (i) date the termination becomes effective (ii) of the fact that we will continue to provide the other Services based on a monthly subscription unless you object to such further provision of Services based on a monthly subscription at any time during such notice period in text form and (iii) of fees applicable for such monthly subscription. Upon expiry of the notice period without your objection, we will continue to provide Services which were components of a Bundled Services plan but have not been terminated based on a monthly subscription. If you object to such change, the provision of all of the Services received based on a Bundled Services plan will terminate upon the date the termination of one component becomes effective. Eligibility for promotional offers may be contingent upon payment of all outstanding Coalition charges, including Insurance Policy Premiums.
You agree to pay your bill electronically each month and to promptly update your email address via [xx] if it changes. Each month you will receive an email notifying you that your bill is available online for viewing. If your electronic payment is rejected for any reason, Coalition may terminate your subscription or enrollment in the Term Plan in accordance with Section 5 b above.
7. Warranty. Section 6 (No Warranties) of the Terms of Service does not apply and is replaced by the following:
