- Restrictions. Customer specifically agrees to limit the use of the Proofpoint Products to those parameters set forth in the applicable Purchase Order and Product Exhibit. Without limiting the foregoing, Customer specifically agrees not to: (i) resell, sublicense, lease, time-share or otherwise make a Proofpoint Product (including the Documentation) available to any third party (except Affiliates and subcontractors); (ii) attempt to gain unauthorized access to, or disrupt the integrity or performance of, a Proofpoint Product or the data contained therein (including but not limited to hacking or penetration testing Proofpoint’s systems); (iii) modify, copy or create derivative works based on a Proofpoint Product; (iv) decompile, disassemble, reverse engineer or otherwise attempt to derive source code from a Proofpoint Product, in whole or in part; or (v) access a Proofpoint Product for the purpose of building a competitive product or service or copying its features or user interface.

- "Confidential Information" shall not include information that (i) is or becomes a matter of public knowledge through no act or omission of the Receiving Party; (ii) was in the Receiving Party’s lawful possession prior to the disclosure without restriction on disclosure; (iii) is lawfully disclosed to the Receiving Party by a third party that lawfully and rightfully possesses such information without restriction on disclosure; (iv) the Receiving Party can document resulted from its own research and development, independent of receipt of the disclosure from the Disclosing Party; or (v) is disclosed with the prior written approval of the Disclosing Party.
- Receiving Party shall not (i) disclose any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to any third party, except as otherwise expressly permitted herein or (ii) use any Confidential Information of Disclosing Party for any purpose outside the scope of this Agreement or in any manner that would constitute a violation of any laws or regulations, including without limitation the export control laws of the United States, except with Disclosing Party's prior written consent. The Receiving Party shall not make Confidential Information available to any of its employees or consultants except those that have agreed to obligations of confidentiality at least as restrictive as those set forth herein and have a “need to know” such Confidential Information. The Receiving Party agrees to hold the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information in confidence and to take all precautions to protect such Confidential Information that the Receiving Party employs with respect to its own Confidential Information of a like nature, but in no case shall the Receiving Party employ less than reasonable precautions. Receiving Party shall promptly notify Disclosing Party if it becomes aware of any actual or reasonably suspected breach of confidentiality of Disclosing Party's Confidential Information. This Agreement will not be construed to prohibit disclosure of Confidential Information to the extent that such disclosure is required to by law or valid order of a court or other governmental authority; provided, however, to the extent permitted by law, the responding party shall give prompt written notice to the other party to enable the other party to seek a protective order or otherwise prevent or restrict such disclosure and, if disclosed, the scope of such disclosure is limited to the extent possible.
- The Receiving Party will return all copies of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information upon the earlier of (i) the Disclosing Party’s request, or (ii) the termination or expiration of this Agreement. Instead of returning such Confidential Information, the Receiving Party may destroy all copies of such Confidential Information in its possession; provided, however, the Receiving Party may retain a copy of any Confidential Information disclosed to it solely for archival purposes, provided that such copy is retained in secure storage and held in the strictest confidence for so long as the Confidential Information remains in the possession of the Receiving Party.
- The parties acknowledge and agree that the confidentiality obligations set forth in this Agreement are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the parties’ business interests, that irreparable injury may result if such obligations are breached, and that, in the event of any actual or potential breach of Section 3, the non-breaching party may have no adequate remedy at law and shall be entitled to seek injunctive and/or other equitable relief as may be deemed proper by a court of competent jurisdiction.
- DATA PROTECTION Proofpoint will maintain administrative, physical, and technical safeguards for protection of the security and confidentiality of Customer Content and Personal Data, including, but will not be limited to, measures for preventing unauthorized access, use, modification or disclosure of Customer Content and Personal Data. Proofpoint’s current data security terms are described in the Data Security Policy document found on Proofpoint’s website at http://www.proofpoint.com/license.
- OWNERSHIP
- Customer retains all title, intellectual property and other ownership rights in all Customer Confidential Information, Customer Content and all data, text, files, output, programs, information, or other information and material that Customer provides, develops, makes available, or uses in conjunction with the Proofpoint Products. Proofpoint retains all title, intellectual property and other ownership rights throughout the world in and to the Proofpoint Products, Documentation, any Service offering and the Work Product. Proofpoint hereby grants to Customer a non-exclusive, non-transferable, fully paid up, license to use the Work Product in connection with the Proofpoint Product licensed under this Agreement and solely for Customer’s internal business purposes. Professional Services (and any resulting Work Product) are specific to the Proofpoint Products and are not provided on a “work made for hire” basis.
- There are no implied rights and all rights not expressly granted herein are reserved. No license, right or interest in any Proofpoint trademark, copyright, patent, trade name or service mark is granted hereunder. Customer shall not remove from any full or partial copies made by Customer of the Software, Software Updates and Documentation any copyright or other proprietary notice contained in or on the original, as delivered to Customer.
- Each party acknowledges that the Proofpoint Products contain valuable trade secrets and proprietary information of Proofpoint, that in the event of any actual or threatened breach of the scope of any of the licenses granted hereunder, such breach shall constitute immediate, irreparable harm to Proofpoint for which monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy, and that injunctive relief is an appropriate remedy for such breach in addition to whatever remedies Proofpoint might have at law or under this Agreement.
- FEES, PAYMENT AND REPORTING
- Fees. Fees for the Proofpoint Products will be the Subscription Fees and other fees set forth in the Purchase Orders (collectively, the “Fees”). The Fees stated in each Purchase Order shall be effective during the Initial Term specified in that Purchase Order; the Subscription Fees and other fees for each Extension Term shall be defined in the applicable Purchase Order or, in the absence of any such terms regarding Fees for Extension Terms, by mutual agreement of the parties.
- Taxes. Customer will be liable for payment of all Taxes that are levied upon and related to the performance of obligations or exercise of rights under this Agreement. Proofpoint may be required to collect and remit Taxes from Customer, unless Customer provides Proofpoint with a valid tax exemption certificate. The amounts received by Proofpoint, after the provision for any Tax or withholding required by any country, will be equal to the amounts specified on the Purchase Order. In no event will either party be responsible for any taxes levied against the other party's net income.
- Payment. Unless otherwise agreed between Customer and Reseller, all Fees due under a Purchase Order shall be due and payable within thirty (30) days of receipt of invoice. Except as otherwise expressly permitted herein, all Fees owed pursuant to a Purchase Order are non-cancellable and non-refundable for the Term. Any payment not received from Customer by the due date may accrue (except for amounts then under reasonable and good faith dispute) interest at the rate of one and one-half percent (1.5%) of the outstanding balance per month, or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower, from the date such payment was due until the date paid. Proofpoint may decline to make any shipments of Proofpoint Products or provide Services if, in Proofpoint’s reasonable opinion, circumstances exist which raise doubt as to Customer’s ability or willingness to pay as provided herein. Failure to make timely payment may result in immediate termination of access to the Proofpoint Products. Upon default by Customer, Proofpoint will have all remedies available at law or in equity. No refunds will be made except as expressly provided for under warranties and intellectual property indemnity for the applicable Proofpoint Product.
- Disputed Invoices. Customer shall have the right to withhold payment of any invoiced amounts that are disputed in good faith until the parties reach agreement with respect to such disputed amounts, and such withholding of disputed amounts shall not be deemed a breach of this Agreement nor shall any interest be paid thereon. In such case, Customer shall promptly (and in no event more than ten (10) business days from receipt of invoice) provide written notice to Proofpoint of any such dispute prior to withholding such payment, specifying in reasonable detail the nature of the dispute and the amount withheld, and shall pay all undisputed amounts set forth on such invoice in accordance with this Section. The parties will negotiate in good faith to attempt to resolve such disputes within thirty (30) days of submission of such dispute by Customer.
- License True-Up. Customer shall monitor and report its actual usage of the subscription-based Proofpoint Products based on the applicable Licenses and inform Proofpoint by email at accountsreceivable@proofpoint.com of the then current actual count (“License Count”) upon the occurrence of the following events: (i) on or before any increase in the License Count equal or greater than ten percent (10%) of the then current licensed License Count and (ii) on the thirtieth (30th) day preceding each anniversary of the Effective Date. Proofpoint may also itself at any time produce an actual License Count for verification by Customer. If such number exceeds the License Count for which Customer has paid Subscription Fees (“Base License Count”) by more than five percent (5%), then Customer shall pay Proofpoint for each License beyond the Base License Count from the time such License was activated through the remainder of the Initial Term or Extension Term, as applicable. If such number exceeds the Base License Count by five percent (5%) or less, then Customer shall pay Proofpoint for each License beyond the Base License Count from the reporting date of the count through the remainder of the Initial Term or Extension Term, as applicable.
- SUPPORT AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
- Proofpoint shall provide support provided Customer is current in payment of the applicable Fees and any additional fees for platinum or premium support, if applicable. Proofpoint’s current Support Services Program terms are described on Proofpoint’s website at http://www.proofpoint.com/license/.
- Proofpoint shall provide the Professional Services, if any, specified in one or more SOWs. All Professional Services shall be billed as stated in the applicable SOW and Customer agrees that, if Customer has not used the Professional Services within one (1) year of paying for such Professional Services, then Proofpoint has no further obligations and Customer shall not be entitled to a refund except as set forth expressly in the applicable SOW.
- Proofpoint warrants it will provide Professional Services in a professional and workmanlike manner consistent with good industry standards and practices. As Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy and Proofpoint’s entire liability for any breach of the foregoing warranty, Proofpoint will use reasonable efforts to re-perform the Professional Services or, if Proofpoint is unable to do so, terminate the applicable SOW and refund that portion of any Fees paid to Proofpoint or Reseller that correspond to the allegedly defective Professional Services.
- TERMINATION AND EXPIRATION
- Either party may terminate the Agreement or Product Exhibit or any Purchase Order (i) immediately upon written notice if the other party commits a non-remediable material breach; or (ii) if the other party fails to cure any remediable material breach within thirty (30) days of being of notified in writing of such breach, unless such breach is for non-payment and then within five (5) days of such notice.
- Either party may terminate the Agreement and each Product Exhibit immediately by written notice if no Purchase Order is in effect.
- On termination or expiration of the Agreement, all Software licenses and Service access granted under this Agreement shall automatically terminate with immediate effect.

Upon expiration of the Initial Term under each Purchase Order the subscription term applicable to such Purchase Order shall automatically renew for Extension Terms unless otherwise agreed by the parties or either party gives the other notice of non-renewal at least ninety (90) days prior to the end of the relevant subscription term.

- INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INDEMNITY
- Duty to Indemnify & Hold Harmless. Subject to Section 9.3 below, Proofpoint agrees to defend and indemnify Customer from and against any third-party claim filed against Customer in Australia, Canada, the European Union, New Zealand, Switzerland, the United States or United Kingdom alleging that the Proofpoint Product(s), as sold and delivered to Customer (the “Indemnified Products”), directly infringe the valid intellectual property rights of a third party (a “Claim”). Proofpoint agrees to pay and hold Customer harmless against any amounts finally awarded by a court of law in respect of such Claim or pursuant to its signed settlement. Proofpoint may, at its sole election and expense: (i) procure sufficient rights to allow Customer continued use and exploitation of the Indemnified Products under the terms of this Agreement; (ii) replace or modify the Indemnified Products to avoid the alleged infringement; or (iii) if the foregoing options are not reasonably practicable, terminate Customer’s rights to use the Indemnified Products and refund all amounts paid by Customer to Proofpoint attributable to Customers’ future usage or access to the Indemnified Products.

Proofpoint shall have no obligation or any liability to Customer for any Claim arising out of or related to: (i) modification or adaptation to the Indemnified Products made by Customer or Customer’s agents; (ii) the use of the Indemnified Products in combination with any other product, service or device, if the Claim would have been avoided by the use of the Indemnified Products without such other product, service or device not provided by Proofpoint to Customer or Customer’s agents; (iii) compliance with Customer’s specific instructions for customization of an Indemnified Product made solely for or on behalf of Customer; (iv) use or exploitation of the Indemnified Products other than as set forth in this Agreement or applicable Proofpoint Documentation; or (v) Customer is given an update, modification, or replacement to Indemnified Products by Proofpoint and fails to implement within a reasonable period of time.
- Process. Proofpoint’s obligations under this Section 9 are conditioned upon the following: (i) Customer first providing written notice of the Claim to Proofpoint within thirty (30) days after Customer becomes aware of or reasonably should have been aware of the Claim (provided, however, the failure to provide such notice will only relieve Proofpoint of its indemnity obligations hereunder to the extent Proofpoint is prejudiced thereby); (ii) Customer tendering sole and exclusive control of the Claim to Proofpoint at the time Customer provides written notice of such Claim to Proofpoint, and (iii) Customer providing reasonable assistance, cooperation and required information with respect to defense and/or settlement of the Claim, including Customer providing Proofpoint with access to documents and personnel at Proofpoint’s request and expense. Customer may at its sole expense participate in the Claim, except that Proofpoint will retain sole control of the defense and/or settlement. Proofpoint shall not agree to any settlement of a Claim that includes an injunction against Customer or admits Customer liability without Customer’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
- The foregoing is the sole and exclusive remedy of Customer and the entire liability of Proofpoint with respect to any Claim.
