Customer acknowledges that a new Service Order is not required for an automatic renewal that occurs under Section 8.1. Netdata Services pricing terms and descriptions as of the Effective Date are as set forth in a separate Services Order subject to and governed by this Agreement. Netdata reserves the right to increase fees applicable to Netdata Services as well as for additional Users, Spaces, Nodes, various Support Services options, new Netdata capabilities and other fees for new modules and features by providing Customer thirty (30) days’ notice prior to the end of each active Subscription Term.
5.2. Payments Terms. Netdata Services fees are invoiced either annually or monthly in advance. Except as otherwise set forth in the Service Order, Netdata will invoice the Customer monthly in arrears for the quantity of Nodes monitored during the prior monthly period at the billable rates and fees defined in the Service Order. Except as otherwise set forth in a SOW, Professional Services fees are invoiced in advance and on a time and materials basis. Except as otherwise set forth in a Service Order, Customer will pay each invoice on the date the invoice is issued. Netdata’s primary form of acceptable payment is by credit card. Late payments will accrue interest at a rate of 1.5% per month or the legal maximum rate, whichever is lower. Customer will cure a delinquency in payment of any amounts owed under this Agreement within 30 days from the date of Netdata’s delinquency notice. If Customer fails to timely cure such delinquency, or regain compliance under Section 8.2 (defining the cure period for breach), Netdata may suspend Customer’s use of the Netdata Services or terminate this Agreement for breach, in addition to any other available rights and remedies. Customer is responsible for all fees, expenses and other costs relating to or connected with making invoiced payments to Netdata under this Agreement, including the direct payment of all banking fees, ACH or credit card processing fees, currency conversions, or similar transactional costs and fees; none of which Customer may deduct or off-set from the Netdata’s invoiced total fee.

5.3. Taxes. Netdata Services fees do not include 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 whatsoever (collectively, “Taxes”). Customer is responsible for paying all Taxes associated with Customer purchases hereunder. If Netdata has the legal obligation to pay or collect Taxes for which Customer are responsible under this Section 5.3, Netdata will invoice Customer and Customer will pay that amount unless Customer provides Netdata with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority. For the avoidance of doubt, Netdata shall be solely responsible for Taxes assessable against Netdata based on Netdata’s income, property and employees, and Customer shall not withhold or deduct any amounts for same except as required by applicable law. Should Customer be required under any law or regulation of any governmental entity or authority outside of the United States, to withhold or deduct any portion of the payments due to Netdata, then Customer shall increase the sum payable to Netdata by the amount necessary to yield to Netdata an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no withholdings or deductions been made.
5.4. No Set-Off. Customer will not set-off or offset against Netdata’s invoices amounts that Customer claims are due to Customer by Netdata, or any amounts resulting from any billing or collection disputes. Customer will bring any claims or causes of action Customer may have in a separate action and waive any rights Customer may have to offset, set-off, or withhold payment for the Netdata Services delivered by Netdata.
5.5. Use Verification. Netdata may remotely review the scope of Customer’s use of the Netdata Services, and on Netdata’s written request, Customer will provide reasonable assistance to verify Customer’s compliance with the Agreement with respect to access to and use of the Netdata Services. If Netdata determines that Customer has exceeded its permitted access and use rights to the Netdata Services as described in a Service Order, Netdata will notify Customer and Customer will, within 30 days, either: (1) disable any unpermitted use; or (2) purchase additional use and access rights commensurate with Customer’s actual use, at Netdata’s then effective rates and fees.
6. Confidential Information.
6.1. Confidential Information Defined. As used herein, “Confidential Information” means non-public information that the party disclosing the information designates at the time of disclosure as being confidential, or, if disclosed orally or visually, is identified as such prior to disclosure, or which, under the circumstances surrounding the disclosure, the receiving party knows or has reason to know should be treated as confidential without the need to be marked as such. Without limiting the foregoing, Confidential Information shall include any information regarding a party’s financial condition, business opportunities, plans for development of future products, unreleased versions of products, know-how, technology, customer information, and customer data. Netdata Technology, Netdata Services, Client Software and unpublished Documentation shall be deemed Netdata Confidential Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing received by a receiving party shall be construed as Confidential Information which: (i) is or becomes generally available to the public without breach of this Agreement; (ii) is lawfully obtained from a third party without a duty of confidentiality; (iii) is known to the receiving party prior to such disclosure; or (iv) is, at any time, developed by the receiving party independent of any such disclosure(s) from the disclosing party and the receiving party can reasonably show such independence.
6.2. Non-Disclosure. The receiving party shall not disclose the disclosing party’s Confidential Information to any third party and may only use the disclosing party’s Confidential Information for the intended business purpose related to this Agreement and for the benefit of the disclosing party. Both parties shall protect Confidential Information from disclosure or misuse by using the same degree of care as for their own confidential information of like importance, but shall at least use reasonable care. Further, both parties agree to have each of their employees or independent contractors with access to any Confidential Information agree to be bound by an enforceable agreement that ensures the protection of the Confidential Information from disclosure to at least the same extent as does this Agreement. Each receiving party agrees to promptly notify the disclosing party upon learning of any unauthorized disclosure of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information, and shall provide reasonable assistance to the disclosing party to remedy and contain such breach. In connection therewith, Customer agrees to provide any such notice to Netdata at legal@netdata.cloud. The foregoing notwithstanding, a receiving party may disclose the other party’s Confidential Information if the information is required by law to be disclosed in response to a valid order of a court of competent jurisdiction or authorized government agency, provided that the receiving party must give the disclosing party prompt written notice, if legally permitted, and obtain or allow for a reasonable effort by the disclosing party to obtain a protective order prior to disclosure, at this disclosing party’s cost and expense.
6.3. Equitable Remedies. The parties agree that a breach of the confidentiality obligations set forth in this Agreement by receiving party may cause immediate and irreparable damage to disclosing party and shall entitle disclosing party, without the necessity of posting a bond, to seek injunctive relief to prevent the continued unauthorized use of disclosing party’s Confidential Information, as well as to pursue all other remedies available to disclosing party at law.

7.1. Limited Netdata Services Warranty. Netdata warrants, for Customer’s benefit only, that the Netdata Services will operate in substantial conformity with the applicable Documentation.

The limited warranty set forth in this Section 7.1 shall not apply: (i) unless Customer makes a claim within thirty (30) days of the date on which Customer first noticed the non-conformity, (ii) if the error was caused by misuse, unauthorized modifications or third-party hardware, software or services, or (iii) to use provided on a no-charge or evaluation basis.
7.2. Limited Support and Professional Services Warranty. In addition, Netdata shall perform Support Services and Professional Services in a competent, professional and workmanlike manner consistent with applicable industry practices. Provided Customer provides timely written notice of non-conforming Support or Professional Services performance within thirty (30) days following the completion of each Support or Professional Service, Netdata will timely re-perform the applicable Service in accordance with the foregoing warranty, and if Netdata is unable or incapable of performing the Support Services within thirty (30) days following the warranty claim, Customer may terminate the Subscription Term, and shall receive as its sole remedy, a refund of any fees Customer has pre-paid for use of the Netdata Services for the terminated portion of the applicable Subscription Term.
