If you are accepting the terms of this Agreement on behalf of a company or other legal entity (including, if you are acting as a managed services provider authorized to offer Managed Services to your customers (such managed services provider, an “MSP”)), you represent and warrant that you have the authority, whether as an agent (including as an MSP) or otherwise, to bind that company or other legal entity (in the case of an MSP, including the end customers of the MSP), to the terms of this Agreement, and, in such event, “you” and “your” will refer to that company or other legal entity. If you do not accept all the terms of this Agreement, then Nexus Core Solutions is unwilling to provide the Managed Services to you and you must cease utilizing the Managed Services and destroy any destroy all copies of documentation relating to the Managed Services (including any customer report provided as part of the Managed Services) immediately.
This Nexus Core Solutions Managed Services Agreement and any sales order form(s) (“Sales Order Form”) you executed with Nexus Core Solutions for the Managed Services (this Nexus Core Solutions Managed Services Agreement and, together with the applicable service order(s), the “Agreement”) are an agreement between you and Nexus Core Solutions and govern your use of the Managed Services.
- Managed Services. During the term of this Agreement and subject to the terms and conditions herein, Nexus Core Solutions agrees to provide the Managed Services purchased by you in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. This Agreement does not govern your license of any Nexus Core Solutions software. Such software is governed under the terms and conditions of the applicable software license agreement between you and Nexus Core Solutions. Managed Services are non-transferable, and may not be transferred between endpoint, nebula accounts, or customer sites.
- Managed Services Price. The price, including, where applicable, tier pricing, will be set forth on each Sales Order Form.
- Purchases Through Resellers. If you purchased the Managed Services through an authorized reseller (“Reseller”) or an MSP, this Agreement will govern your use of those Managed Services. Your payment obligations for the Managed Services will be with the Reseller or the MSP, as applicable, and you will have no direct payment obligations to Nexus Core Solutions for such Managed Services purchases. Any terms agreed to between you and the Reseller or the MSP, as applicable, that are in addition to this Agreement are solely between you and the Reseller or the MSP, as applicable. No agreement between you and Reseller or the MSP is binding on Nexus Core Solutions, nor will it have any force or effect with respect to the rights in, or the operation, use or provision of, the Managed Services. If you are acting as a Reseller or an MSP and providing Managed Services to your customers, you agree to enter or to have entered into a written agreement with your customers, such agreement containing terms that are equally protective of Nexus Core Solutions’ rights set forth in this Agreement. Reseller or MSP, as applicable, shall indemnify Nexus Core Solutions for any claim, action or allegation arising from Reseller or MSP’s failure to bind its customers to terms that are equally protective of Nexus Core Solutions’ rights set forth in this Agreement.
- Customer Responsibilities. If you utilize the Managed Services, you will be responsible for abiding by the prerequisites and customer responsibilities set forth on the applicable Managed Services end-user technical documentation published by Nexus Core Solutions (“Documentation”).
- MDR and MTH Services. Each of Managed Detection and Response Services (“MDR Services”) and Managed Threat Hunting Services ("MTH Services") is a type of Managed Service solution offered by Nexus Core Solutions. Each of MDR Services and MTH Services requires an active subscription to Nexus Core Solutions Endpoint Detection & Response (“EDR”) software on all your endpoints. You acknowledge that you understand that if an endpoint in an environment is not protected by EDR, a security risk may breakthrough the environment through the unprotected endpoint. Each of our MDR Services and MTH Services is only quoted and sold for deployment on all of your endpoints. If you have any endpoints that do not have EDR enabled, the efficacy of, and the ability for Nexus Core Solutions to provide, the MDR Services or the MTH Services, as applicable, will be negatively impacted. Accordingly, you shall be responsible for ensuring that your endpoints have EDR enabled on all endpoints at all times so that you can utilize the intended benefits of the MDR Services or the MTH Services, as applicable. Where you increase the number of your endpoints in your environment during your subscription to the MDR Services or the MTH Services, as applicable, you hereby agree to promptly pay for MDR Services or MTH Services, as applicable, for such additional endpoints for the remainder of the then-ongoing term. Removal of any endpoint during the MDR Services or MTH Services, as applicable, subscription term shall not reduce the cost of the MDR Services or the MTH Services, as applicable, nor entitle you to any refunds or credits. If you are an MSP, you acknowledge and agree that you are responsible for implementing recommendations from MDR Services or MTH Services, as applicable, for your customers.
- Prohibited Uses. You shall not: (a) modify, alter, tamper with, or circumvent any aspect of the Managed Services; (b) transfer (except as expressly permitted in Section 16), sublicense, lease, rent or otherwise distribute the Managed Services to any third party; (c) make the functionality of the Managed Services available to any third party through any means; (d) test the Managed Services in order to find limitations or vulnerabilities, or (e) reverse engineer or attempt to or reverse engineer the Managed Services.
- Customer Acknowledgement.
- Unauthorized Access. You acknowledge and agree that you are responsible for your use of the Managed Services. You are fully responsible for the control of and/or access to your account, including limiting access to usernames and passwords and you agree to take all reasonable precautions to protect your username and password and access to your account. You will immediately notify Nexus Core Solutions in the event that you discover or believe that your account or username or password has been accessed in any unauthorized way. Neither Nexus Core Solutions nor any third party associated with providing any portion of the Managed Services will be liable to you or any third party for any failure by you to prevent unauthorized access to your account.
- Limitation of Managed Services. The Managed Services cannot and should not be relied upon to detect all malicious or other harmful or problematic files or data. Alternatively, neither Nexus Core Solutions nor any third party associated with providing any portion of the Managed Services is responsible in the event that the Managed Services may designate some files or data as malicious or harmful, when they are not. You are responsible for all data and content that you post and/or access, even if it was monitored by the Managed Services. Neither Nexus Core Solutions nor any third party associated with providing any portion or the Managed Services is responsible in any way to the monitored or other content and materials. In addition, such monitoring does not guarantee detection of all malicious or other harmful or problematic files or data. We urge you not to access or read any suspicious files and/or information even if those were monitored using the Managed Services.
- Content. You understand that all information (such as data files, written text, computer software, code, music, audio files or other sounds, photographs, videos or other images, etc.) (“Content”) which you may be monitoring using the Managed Services are the sole responsibility of the person from which such content originated. You understand that although you are using the Managed Services, you may be exposed to Content that you may find harmful, unlawful, offensive, indecent or objectionable and that you use the Managed Services at your own risk. You agree that you are solely responsible for (and that neither Nexus Core Solutions nor any third party associated with providing any portion or the Managed Services has any responsibility to you or to any third party for) any Content that you access, use, transmit or display while using the Managed Services and for any consequences that your actions may have (including any loss or damage which Nexus Core Solutions or any third party associated with providing any portion or the Managed Services may suffer) by doing so.
- Ownership of Deliverables. Managed Services do not constitute “works for hire,” “works made in the course of duty,” or similar terms under laws where the transfer of intellectual property occurs on the performance of services to a payor. The only deliverable arising from the Managed Services is a report consisting primarily of Nexus Core Solutions findings, case status, and threat information. You own the copy of the report delivered to you (“Deliverable”), subject to Nexus Core Solutions ownership of the Nexus Core Solutions Materials. You agree that relative to you, Nexus Core Solutions exclusively owns any and all software (including object and source code), flow charts, algorithms, documentation, adversary information, report templates, know-how, inventions, techniques, models, Nexus Core Solutions trademarks, ideas and any and all other works and materials developed by Nexus Core Solutions in connection with performing the Managed Services (including without limitation all intellectual property rights therein and thereto) (collectively, the “Nexus Core Solutions Materials”) and that title shall remain with Nexus Core Solutions. For the avoidance of doubt, the Nexus Core Solutions Materials does not include any of your pre-existing information or other materials or data you provided. Upon payment in full of the amounts due hereunder for the applicable Managed Services and to the extent the Nexus Core Solutions Materials are incorporated into the Deliverable(s), you shall have a perpetual, non-transferable (except as expressly provided in the Section entitled Assignment), non-exclusive license to use the Nexus Core Solutions Materials solely as a part of the Deliverable(s) for your internal business purposes.
- Beta Features and Beta Releases. From time-to-time, Nexus Core Solutions, at its sole discretion, may make available to you optional features to its Managed Services (collectively “Beta Releases”). You are not required to use such Beta Releases. Unless a particular Beta Release includes its own separate and specific terms and conditions, this Agreement will govern the usage of Beta Releases. Conditioned upon your compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Nexus Core Solutions grants you the ability to use the Beta Releases solely for your internal business purposes, and in the case of beta features and releases, for evaluation purposes. Beta Releases are sometimes provided as preview releases of new features and functionality, as well as quick fixes for resolving specific issues. Beta Releases are not fully tested by Nexus Core Solutions and may include significant issues. You acknowledge that Beta Releases are likely to present risks associated with their use. Nexus Core Solutions strongly recommends that you back up all of your data prior to using Beta Releases. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Beta Releases are provided “as is”, and do not carry any warranties or maintenance or support; similarly, in no event will Nexus Core Solutions be liable for any damage arising from the use of Beta Releases.
- Updates. You understand and agree that your purchase is not contingent on the delivery of any future functionality or features, or dependent on any oral or written public comments made by Nexus Core Solutions regarding future functionality or features. Nexus Core Solutions reserves the right to designate any updates, additional content or features as requiring separate payment or purchase of a separate subscription at any time.
- Term.
- The initial term of this Agreement commences on the date specified in the Sales Order Form accompanying the Managed Services (or if no such date is specified, the first date you have access to any portion of the Managed Services) and, in each case, continues for the period of time set forth in the Sales Order Form (or, if no such date is specified, for one year). Your order shall not automatically renew (unless you opt into autorenewal on your Sales Order Form). Where you opt into autorenewal, the renewal shall be for the same term and price except where Nexus Core Solutions has provided you with sixty (60) days’ notice of a change to the renewal pricing. Where you opt into autorenewal and later change your mind, you can avoid automatic renewal by providing us with at least thirty (30) days’ written notice (email sufficient) prior to the renewal date.
- Termination For Cause. Either party may terminate this Agreement for cause if the other party materially breaches this Agreement and such breach remains uncured after thirty (30) days’ written notice of such breach.
- Effect of Termination. Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, your rights to the Managed Services terminates immediately and Nexus Core Solutions, at its discretion, may promptly disable your access to the Managed Services or the Managed Services account. If this Agreement is terminated by you in accordance with subsection b above, Nexus Core Solutions will refund you any prepaid fees for the Managed Services covering the remainder of the term of the applicable orders forms after the effective date of termination. If this Agreement is terminated by Nexus Core Solutions in accordance with subsection b above, you will pay any unpaid fees covering the remainder of the term of all applicable Sales Order Forms to the extent permitted by applicable law. In no event will termination relieve you of your obligation to pay any fees payable to Nexus Core Solutions for the period prior to the effective date of termination. Sections 10, 11, 12, 13, 14(a), 15, and 16 of this Agreement, and any provisions which explicitly state that they will continue, will survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.
- Payment Terms. The price payable by you is the price stated in the Sales Order Form (or, if no such price is specified, the price set out in our then-current standard published price list). Our prices are exclusive of taxes, duties, levies, tariffs, and other governmental charges (including, without limitation, VAT) (collectively, “Taxes”). If we issue an invoice to you, all invoices are payable within 30 days of the invoice date unless specified differently in the invoice or Sales Order Form. You are responsible for payment of all Taxes and any related interest and/or penalties resulting from any payments made to us, other than any taxes based on Nexus Core Solutions’ net income.
